Chapter 7 Bed 17

An Ran clenched the door handle on the emergency door dejectedly, bent over, and gasped for breath. Her forehead, which was wrapped in a scarf, was already soaked with sweat. Because of excessive exercise, there were small circles of milk stains on her chest. It seemed that she had started to produce milk, but without the child around, her chest was swollen and painful.

The pain made An Ran's confused mind clear up. She thought that this couldn't go on. She couldn't give up. No matter what happened to this hospital, her daughter was still in the neonatal department. She had to get her daughter out of this hospital no matter what!

The piece of flesh that fell off her body gave An Ran some perseverance. She rolled her eyes and thought for a while, then decided to go downstairs to the ward and call Zhan Lian. Although Zhan Lian was serving as a soldier in the Northwest, he was a native of Xiangcheng. After all, he should have some connections in Xiangcheng. Judging from the fact that he was able to complete all the procedures for buying a house and a car with just a few phone calls, she still had to rely on Zhan Lian at the critical moment!

An Ran wanted him to think of a way and help her to see if they could get her daughter out of the neonatal department first.

At this time, she no longer cared about the harsh words she had said before, saying that no matter how desperate she was, she would not ask Zhan Lian for help, and her daughter was the most important.

So An Ran, with her exhausted body, dragged herself down the stairs and spent nearly 30 minutes returning to bed 16 in her ward. She took out her cell phone from under her pillow, and this time, she dialed Zhan Lian's number without hesitation.

“Beep~beep~beep~beep~”

The phone rang for almost a minute, but no one answered. An Ran was so anxious that she almost went to the room. This man was always like this, always like this. At every critical moment when she needed him, he was not there, he was not there!!! In his heart, there was only his country, his army, and his brothers!

After hanging up the phone, just as An Ran was leaning against the bed, at a loss, a corner of her curtain was lifted. The woman in bed 17 who had a caesarean section, also wearing a swaddle on her head, frowned at An Ran, tears in her eyes, and said weakly: "Hello, can I trouble you for something? I, I'm in great pain, can you help me call my husband?"

Her husband and mother-in-law had been gone for several hours. It was already 10 o'clock in the morning, but it seemed as if the sky was still dark and there was no sign of daylight at all. Bed 17 was also anxious. She was in pain and hungry at the moment, and she only wanted to find her husband and mother-in-law back.

An Ran hesitated for a moment. She really wanted to talk to the patient in bed 17. There were people with strange blue veins on their faces everywhere outside. She thought this hospital must be possessed by some evil spirit. At this time, the husband and mother-in-law of bed 17 might not come back. She couldn't explain why, but An Ran felt that the hope of coming back was slim.

But she still nodded and agreed to make a call for bed 17. An Ran thought darkly, maybe the husband and mother-in-law didn't have anything wrong at all, they just didn't want to serve the mother? Anyway, there were only three mothers in the ward now, it would be good if there was a man to take the lead and think of a way to get the children out.

So An Ran temporarily suppressed her anxiety. As Bed 17 read out the phone number, her fingers flew across the phone. She dialed a number, but got a busy tone.
