My eyes widened in shock as my body was suddenly thrown to the ground. Then there was a loud "bang" and something exploded behind me. The surrounding rocks flew and landed around me.
The sound was deafening and stunned me for a moment.
It's an explosion!
There was a bomb in the suitcase!
My sanity returned, and I was suddenly startled. I heard Lu Zhiyuan's nervous voice asking, "Are you okay?"
I shook my head numbly, propped myself up and climbed up. Lu Zhiyuan helped me stand up. I turned around and saw the tragedy in front of me. I screamed -
"Li Tao!"
The suitcase had been blown to pieces, and Li Tao, who had opened the suitcase, was lying on the ground, his body covered in blood.
I covered my mouth in horror and rushed over with tears in my eyes.
I knelt beside Li Tao, not daring to touch him with my hands.
"Li Tao..."
I choked and called out his name, but the huge impact had already caused Li Tao to fall unconscious.
Lu Zhiyuan stayed by my side, put his arm around my shoulders, and calmly dialed the emergency number.
My mind went blank. The ambulance arrived and lifted Li Tao onto a stretcher.
I subconsciously wanted to follow him, but my legs went weak when I stood up. Fortunately, Lu Zhiyuan supported me.
"Don't worry, the doctor has already sent him to the hospital for emergency treatment. I'll drive you there."
I was completely at a loss at this moment and just followed Lu Zhiyuan's arrangements stupidly.
On the way to the hospital, I was sitting in the car, shaking uncontrollably. Even though Lu Zhiyuan had turned the air conditioner up very high, I still felt cold.
If Li Tao hadn't stopped me, if I had been the one to open the suitcase...
I felt scared and guilty.
Li Tao was injured like this, all because of me.
He suffered for me.
The car slowly stopped in front of the hospital, but my panic still didn't subside.
Lu Zhiyuan held my cold hand and comforted me softly, "Li Tao is such a good person, he will be fine."
I nodded woodenly, impatiently pushing open the door and getting out of the car.
Lu Zhiyuan and I rushed to the operating room. The light was still on during the operation, so we could only wait outside.
I paced back and forth at the door, feeling uneasy and unable to sit still.
Lu Zhiyuan accompanied me silently without saying much.
The explosion was an accident, but the injured person should not be Li Tao.
Another hour passed and the door of the operating room finally opened.
When I saw the doctor coming out, I rushed over and asked anxiously, "Doctor, how is he?"
The doctor sighed, and my heart suddenly hung in the air.
My vision went dark for a moment, and my body swayed, but Lu Zhiyuan held me steadily.
The doctor's tone was filled with regret. "The patient is no longer in danger of death, but his right arm was severely burned and has already started to become necrotic. He can't be saved."
My legs went weak and I almost lost my balance.
Li Tao actually lost an arm?
I reached out to hold on to the wall, gasping for breath. The sadness in my heart pressed on my chest, making me feel painful.
Li Tao was injured while trying to save me and his arm was broken. Not only Li Tao, but even I can't accept it.
Li Tao was a bodyguard, and breaking an arm was undoubtedly equivalent to ending his career.
I fell into the chair, tears streaming down my face.
The doctor glanced at me and shook his head helplessly. "When he wakes up, please try to persuade him. Although he lost an arm, he is lucky to have saved his life."
