Chapter 679 Why is there so much blood? (Second mention)
A little over an hour later, the lights in the emergency room went out.
The door opened, and the doctor came out.
Wen Yusen immediately stepped forward to inquire about the situation.
The doctor removed his mask. "Acute gastric bleeding. Does the patient have a history of heavy drinking?"
Wen Yusen frowned. "I'm not quite sure about that."
The doctor asked in surprise, "You don't know each other?"
“I know her, but we haven’t been in touch for years.” Wen Yusen paused, then asked, “Is she sober now?”
"The situation has stabilized, but the person is still unconscious and is expected to wake up tomorrow. The stomach bleeding requires a treatment process, and the person will need to be hospitalized for at least a week. Let's go and complete the formalities first."
Wen Yusen nodded.
He helped Yunqin get admitted to the hospital, knowing that she was a spoiled princess and even more difficult to take care of when she was sick, so he directly arranged for her to stay in a VIP ward.
After completing the formalities, he asked the nurse to help him contact a caregiver to come and take care of Yunqin.
After arranging everything, Wen Yusen finally remembered Shen Anning.
He took out his phone and saw the missed call from Shen Anning, so he immediately called her back.
Shen Anning has already returned to her law firm office.
When Wen Yusen called, Chu Yuke had just arrived at her office.
Shen Anning gestured for Chu Yuke to sit on the sofa first. She took her phone, walked to the French windows, and pressed the answer button, "Mr. Wen."
"Sorry, something urgent has come up." Wen Yusen sounded guilty, his tone urgent. "Are you still at the cinema?"
"Didn't you see the message I sent you?" Shen Anning asked in confusion.
Wen Yusen paused, "What did you send?"
“I had some urgent business at my law firm, so I came back early,” Shen Anning explained calmly. “I called you but you didn’t answer, so I sent you a text message.”
Wen Yusen immediately opened WeChat and saw the message Shen Anning had sent him.
Forty minutes ago.
He was on his way to take Yunqin to the hospital at that time.
Wen Yusen lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Sorry, I just saw it now."
"It's nothing, I also have something to do." Shen Anning could vaguely guess that Wen Yusen's urgent matter this time was not simple, but she did not want to delve into it.
They were just blind date partners anyway. Even though both sets of parents were very keen to bring them together, she and Wen Yusen were at most just friends who got along well.
Furthermore, she herself used an urgent matter as an excuse to leave early.
They all lied; that's fair.
The two chatted briefly for a few more minutes before hanging up.
Sitting on the sofa, Chu Yuke looked at Shen Anning, whose expression hadn't changed at all after talking to Wen Yusen, and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh: "This isn't chatting with a blind date, it's more formulaic than talking to the person in question!"
Shen Anning put her phone on the desk, walked over and sat down opposite Chu Yuke.
Looking at Chu Yuke's noticeably rounder face, she smiled faintly, "Isn't this how relationships based on arranged marriages always go?"
“You don’t love him,” Chu Yuke said bluntly, “so you don’t mind him ignoring you.”
Shen Anning did not deny it, "There's nothing wrong with not loving someone. Anyway, love isn't a good thing, you know that, right?"
"No!" Chu Yuke raised her index finger and shook it. "Although I've experienced the bitterness of love, I still yearn for beautiful love!"
Shen Anning: "...It seems that even practicing Buddhism in Tibet might not cure your love-struck mind?"
"Let's not argue about who's better!" Chu Yuke rolled her eyes.
Shen Anning smiled and said, "That's true."
Chu Yuke sighed, "However, after spending seven days in the temple, my mind calmed down, and many things naturally became clear to me."
Upon hearing this, Shen Anning pursed her lips slightly.
"I lit a lamp, I heard it's very effective. I'm praying for my career, for peace, and of course for love. Am I being a little greedy?"
Shen Anning glanced at her and said, "You know it yourself."
“You seem to have no desires now.” Chu Yuke leaned back on the sofa armrest, her large hand supporting her chin, and her voice softened. “I lit a prayer lamp for him in your name. Strangely enough, that night I dreamed that a child thanked me. He said he was very good and that you two were destined to meet again someday.”
Shen Anning was taken aback.
Chu Yuke stared at her. "In the dream, he seemed to be a boy?"
Shen Anning took a deep breath, her fingertips, which were supporting her on the sofa, turned slightly white. She forced a smile and said, "What you think about during the day, you dream about at night. Senior sister, it's been so long, I've already let it go. You don't need to keep worrying about me."
"It's good that you've let it go!" Chu Yuke sat up straight, too lazy to expose her pretense, and changed the subject: "There are only eight days left until New Year's Eve, sister, when does our law firm stop working? My mom is urging me to go home for blind dates this year!"
“We have a lot of cases lately, so it might not be too early, but you can go back first,” Shen Anning said. “Everyone in our law firm except you is a local. Go back early to avoid the Spring Festival travel rush.”
"So the law firm is leaving you with just one person again?"
“Anyway, you’ve been missing for half a month, so a few more days won’t make a difference,” Shen Anning said deliberately. “But you won’t get your year-end bonus.”
"Capitalist, your abacus beads have hit my face!" Chu Yuke waved her hand with a smile. "Let me see how things go. Actually, I don't really want to go back, but my mom keeps urging me to get married. I don't want to get married at all!"
"You just said you longed for love?"
“Yearning for love is not the same as yearning for marriage.” Chu Yuke counted on her fingers, “Look at the cases we’ve taken this year, 60 percent of them are divorce cases. Behind every divorce case is a woman’s blood and tears. Seriously, I’m almost afraid of marriage from taking on so many cases!”
Shen Anning smiled slightly but didn't say anything.
Love is not the same as marriage, and marriage is not the same as love.
The adult world is sometimes just that imperfect.
...
After that day, Qi Yue never appeared in Shen Anning's life again.
Shen Anning and Wen Yusen continued to maintain their daily contact.
In the blink of an eye, Lunar New Year's Eve has arrived.
On New Year's Eve this year, an unexpected guest came to our home.
When Qi Yue arrived with New Year's gifts, the whole family, including Shen Anning, was stunned.
However, since Qi Yue came under the guise of his parents to deliver New Year's gifts, Fu Siyan and Shen Qingshu couldn't very well turn him away.
Fortunately, when Qi Yue arrived, Shen Anning, Fu Nian'an, and Xiao Nianjin, the three siblings, were on the second floor.
Upon hearing that Qi Yue had arrived, Fu Nian'an was surprised. He told Shen Anning and Fu Nianjin to stay on the second floor while he hurriedly went downstairs to check the situation.
After Fu Nian'an came downstairs, Fu Nianjin noticed that Shen Anning's complexion was a little off and asked worriedly, "Sister, your face is so pale, are you alright?"
"I got my period." Shen Anning clutched her aching lower abdomen. "I'm going back to my room to lie down. Call me at midnight for New Year's Eve."
"Let me help you back to your room." Fu Nianjin helped Shen Anning back to her room.
Shen Anning lay down on the bed, pulled the blanket up to cover half her face, and said, "Go out and close the door for me."
"Okay." Fu Nianjin nodded, turned around, walked out of the room, and closed the door.
...
In previous years, Qi Yue would bring Xiao Hanxi to visit our home for the New Year, but most of the time it was on the first day of the Lunar New Year. This year, Qi Yue suddenly chose to come alone on New Year's Eve, which was really unexpected.
In previous years, whenever Qi Yue and Xiao Hanxi set off, Han Mingyu would call Fu Siyan in advance to inform him, and then Shen Anning would hide in advance to avoid the two meeting.
Every time they came to pay New Year's visits, Qi Yue was as mature and aloof as ever, while Xiao Hanxi was cute and sweet-talking. Fu Siyan and Shen Qingshu also warmly welcomed the siblings.
Fu Nian'an's attitude towards Qi Yue was so-so, but he treated Xiao Hanxi like his own younger sister, giving her the same amount of money as his two younger sisters in red envelopes.
Putting aside Qi Yue's amnesia and that unfortunate relationship, the relationship between the two families remained largely unchanged.
However, this situation has caused some injustice to Shen Anning.
Fu Siyan and Fu Nian'an actually had many complaints about this, and even considered reducing the annual gatherings between the two families for Shen Anning's sake. However, Shen Anning did not want to affect the relationship between the two families because of her, and she persuaded them repeatedly, which made Fu Siyan and Fu Nian'an give up the idea.
She always said that everything would pass, and that after she and Qi Yue each started their own families, she wouldn't have to hide from Qi Yue anymore.
Shen Anning was always like this: seemingly carefree, but secretly like a voyeur. Every year when Qi Yue came to pay New Year's visits, she would hide in a corner and secretly watch the boy who once loved her so much that he was crazy about her.
He sat at home, chatting and laughing with his parents, and life was mostly smooth sailing.
She was the only one missing.
Without Shen Anning, Qi Yue was even more dazzling; he lived a more perfect life.
Shen Anning was happy for him.
She dared not even hope that Qi Yue would one day regain his memories.
Therefore, even though Qi Yue suddenly chose to visit her early on New Year's Eve, she didn't think much of it.
She had a dull ache in her abdomen. She put on a sanitary pad, and although there wasn't much blood, she still felt uncomfortable. It seemed to be different from the usual menstrual cramps.
Shen Anning closed her eyes and sighed wearily.
She thought to herself that after the New Year, she would have to inquire about whether there were any reliable, unfamiliar traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in Beicheng.
She needs to take good care of her health.
I dare not go to Grandpa Jin; one pulse diagnosis and everything would be over…
Lost in thought, Shen Anning unknowingly drifted off to sleep.
She didn't know how long she had slept, but in her hazy state, she vaguely heard someone calling her—several voices, sounding somewhat urgent.
"Xiao Ning? What's wrong? Why is this child sweating so much while sleeping?"
"Mom, my sister just said she's having her period and her stomach is hurting..."
"Xiao Ning never had menstrual cramps before? Xiao Ning... Ah! Why is there so much blood..."
"This much blood loss is not right! Nian'an, quick, take Xiao Ning to the hospital! A-Shu, call Yan Cheng right away..."
