"She's lost so much blood, I don't know if she'll survive. Call the police and an ambulance right away!"
Zhu Shimao was still sitting in the car waiting when the ambulance sped past him, and he was still wondering what had happened ahead.
Inside the coffee shop, Mo Yanyan looked at the time and realized that nearly half an hour had passed since the agreed time. She was furious. She picked up her phone to call Zhu Shimao, but then worried that he would notice something was wrong with her voice and give herself away. In the end, she left angrily.
On the other side, Zhu Shimao, who thought the mother and daughter were having a pleasant conversation, was still patiently waiting in his car when he unexpectedly received a call for emergency medical assistance.
"Hello, is this Mr. Zhu Shimao? Your wife was in a car accident this afternoon and is currently receiving treatment at our hospital. Her condition is critical, and she needs craniotomy. A family member must sign the consent form. Please come to the hospital immediately."
"Boom!"
Hearing the voice coming from the receiver was like a thunderbolt striking Zhu Shimao's head, leaving him shocked and completely bewildered. He responded with a single sentence and immediately drove to the hospital.
This usually composed man drove exceptionally fast this time, nearly rear-ending two other cars along the way.
The hospital found Li Shufen's personal information through comparison and contacted not only her legal husband, Zhu Shimao, but also her blood-related daughter.
When the hospital called Mo Jingjing, she was taking a shower in the bathroom. The sound of the shower was so loud that she didn't hear her phone ring. By the time she noticed the missed call, it was already more than ten minutes later.
Recently, due to some public opinion, Mo Jingjing has been receiving prank calls from strangers. Under normal circumstances, she would ignore them. Perhaps influenced by what the master said, Mo Jingjing hesitated for a while when she saw the stranger's number, but finally tapped her finger lightly and dialed back.
"Hello, this is Mo Jingjing. I just saw that you called me several times. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Hello Ms. Mo, this is the city hospital. Your mother was hit by a truck this afternoon and is in critical condition. She needs a family member's signature for surgery. Please come over as soon as possible."
As soon as Mo Jingjing finished speaking, the nurse on the other end of the phone spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Mo Jingjing was completely stunned: "Wait... what did you just say about my mother?"
Is she really alive?
I've always lived in the same city as her.
"Yes, Miss Mo, it is indeed your mother, Ms. Li Shufen."
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Mo Jingjing immediately hung up the phone, turned around, and ran to Cheng Meng without even knocking on the door.
Turning around, Cheng Meng saw Mo Jingjing's deathly pale face and was startled: "Jingjing, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale? Has something happened?"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I'll be there for you!"
Terrified, Cheng Meng jumped out of bed and hugged Mo Jingjing tightly, hoping to make her feel better.
At this moment, Mo Jingjing's entire body seemed to have lost its temperature; her body was icy cold, and this coldness spread all the way to her fingertips, making Cheng Meng extremely nervous.
"Sister Meng, I... I just received a call from the hospital. They said my mother, Ms. Li Shufen, was hit by a truck this afternoon and is currently in the hospital receiving emergency treatment. Her life is in danger, and they want me to come over immediately."
Mo Jingjing felt the warmth emanating from Cheng Meng, which made her feel a little better, and her mind regained some rationality.
Hearing what Mo Jingjing said, Cheng Meng was completely stunned: "Holy crap! Is this master really that effective? Is your mother really still alive? This ordeal came so quickly, didn't she? Did the nurse who called you say which hospital she was in? Let's go check on her now."
"They said it was at the city hospital, Sister Meng, don't you think all of this is too much of a coincidence?" Mo Jingjing frowned deeply.
"It is indeed a bit of a coincidence, but that's how the world is. Nobody knows what will happen next. Jingjing, saying I understand how you feel is just empty talk. I can't fully understand how you feel right now, but I know that the most important thing for you to do right now is to change your clothes. I'll go get the car, and we'll go to the hospital now!"
Cheng Meng truly regarded Mo Jingjing as a sister and understood that there was no such thing as true empathy in this world, so she offered her companionship, reason, and a shoulder to lean on.
"You're right, I'll go back to my room and change now."
Cheng Meng's rationality also made Mo Jingjing much more sober.
Because she was anxious, Mo Jingjing wanted to drive herself, but Cheng Meng forcefully sat in the driver's seat and pressed her into the passenger seat: "Jingjing, you are not in a good condition to drive right now. Just behave yourself and don't worry too much. Anyway, Auntie is already in the hospital and the doctors are trying their best to save her. If something bad happens because you are too worried, that would only make things worse."
"Thank goodness you're here, Sister Meng."
Mo Jingjing expressed her heartfelt gratitude.
On the way to the hospital, Mo Jingjing took out her phone and told Su Mu about it. Su Mu had just finished filming, and he could feel Mo Jingjing's emotions even through the screen.
"Don't worry, I'll go back now."
“I have friends at the hospital. I’ll call them right now and they’ll arrange for the best doctors and investigate the whole story.”
"It's okay, I'm always here."
Don't worry, I'm always here.
Upon seeing the message Su Mu sent, Mo Jingjing's anxious heart instantly calmed down, and she replied with a simple "okay".
He then put his phone away.
More than forty minutes later, Mo Jingjing and Cheng Meng arrived at the hospital. Zhu Shimao arrived about five minutes earlier than them. Because he had been accompanying his wife and keeping an eye on everything Mo Jingjing had done these past two days, Zhu Shimao recognized Mo Jingjing at first glance.
"Jingjing, what did you say to your mother? How did she get into a car accident?" Because Li Shufen was still in critical condition and her life was uncertain, Zhu Shimao was quite agitated and even vented his emotions on Mo Jingjing.
Looking at the unfamiliar man in front of her, Mo Jingjing was completely baffled by his question: "Who are you? Do we know each other?"
"Exactly, who are you? What did you mean by what you just said? Our Jingjing only found out that Auntie was still alive when she received a call from the hospital." Because of Zhu Shimao's attitude, Cheng Meng was also wary of her. She immediately protected Mo Jingjing and looked the man up and down.
As an artist's agent, Cheng Meng has a good eye for talent. Judging from this person's clothes, demeanor, and speech, he should be a successful person with a certain net worth.
