Chapter 653: Zhang Han may be dead
Qiao Xi immediately ran up eagerly.
The door of the operating room slowly opened, and she saw nurses pushing out a mobile bed.
Huo Xingzhou just lay there with his eyes closed and his face pale.
It had been a long time since that stern face had shown such a fragile look.
Qiao Xi couldn't help but stepped forward and shouted, "Xingzhou, you..."
"Could you please move aside? The anesthesia hasn't worn off yet. We'll be transferred to the ward for two days of observation..."
Qiao Xi was forced to step aside and follow behind the bed.
Lao Chen and Sun Weimeng looked at each other and followed.
Huo Xingzhou was transferred to the ward for observation. The nurses gave him some instructions and left.
Qiao Xi stood in front of the bed, staring at Huo Xingzhou without blinking, afraid that the man would disappear if she closed her eyes.
Tears rolled down the corners of her eyes, and her heart felt sore.
Sun Weimeng felt a little bit sorry when he saw this.
He stepped forward and whispered, "The doctor said it's nothing serious. He's young and in good shape. It's a blessing that the knife didn't damage any of his vital organs. He'll be fine after some rest. Don't be too sad."
Qiao Xi's voice was a little hoarse, and she whispered, "Young Master Sun, I'm angry at myself for not realizing sooner that he didn't have a bodyguard. He arranged for Old Chen to be with me, which is why this accident happened. I'm also angry that he did something without telling me..."
Where did those bodyguards go?
She felt very upset.
Sun Weimeng didn't know what to say, because he also wanted to know what Huo Xingzhou was doing secretly. Thinking of this, he turned around and glared at Lao Chen fiercely.
Old Chen felt a little guilty.
He has to abide by professional ethics. The young master said that the news cannot leak out, so he cannot say a single word.
"Ahem."
Old Chen coughed a few times and said, "I'm going to the police station to investigate the situation and see what happened today. Madam, Young Master Sun, you two just wait here. Once the anesthetic wears off, the young master will wake up."
He said that and left.
Sun Wei snorted, moved a chair to Qiao Xi and placed it next to her, saying, "Please sit down for a while. You haven't had lunch after running around outside for so long. I'll go buy you something to eat. Is there anything you want to eat?"
Qiao Xi shook her head.
"Then I'll buy you some."
Sun Weimeng knew that she might not be in the mood to eat, so he could only leave helplessly.
He closed the door gently.
Qiao Xi sat on the edge of the bed, she was enveloped by a strong panic.
Her grandmother had left her so quietly before, and now she was like a frightened bird, unable to bear any sudden accidents.
She stretched out her trembling hand to touch the back of Huo Xingzhou's hand.
soft.
Warm.
He won't leave me like grandma did.
Qiao Xi felt a pang of heart palpitations. She sniffed and took a cotton swab, dipped it in some warm water and gently wiped his dry lips.
Then put the cotton swab aside.
She lifted the quilt and took a look at his abdominal wound, which was already wrapped in gauze.
But blood stains could be vaguely seen on the gauze.
I don’t know how much blood was shed.
Qiao Xi gently covered herself with the quilt, but her hand was held.
She turned around and saw Huo Xingzhou had slowly woken up. His deep, dark eyes were less intimidating than usual. He held her hand tightly, his voice a little low: "Qiao Xi."
"I'm here."
He tried to sit up, but Qiao Xi held his shoulders down and said, "You can't move while lying down. The doctor said you need to rest. From now on, you have to listen to me."
Huo Xingzhou looked at her serious expression, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
If he doesn't listen to her, she will get angry again.
"Lie down."
Qiao Xi said with a straight face.
She was clearly terrified when he was unconscious, but now she didn't look happy, and there was no smile on her pretty face.
Huo Xingzhou followed her wishes and lay down on the hospital bed.
But those eyes always followed her figure.
Qiao Xi packed up the things in the room, with a lot of words in her heart. Finally, she walked up to him and said, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
She had been busy for so long without any purpose, just wanting to hear him confess.
But.
But he said nothing.
Huo Xingzhou looked at her and said, "What do you want me to say?"
"Many, many things. For example, where did your bodyguards go? Who is going to deal with you? What secrets are you hiding from me? Huo Xingzhou, we can have secrets and our own space, but we can't hide such life-threatening things from each other. If you leave Lao Chen to me, what will you do?
Haven't you ever thought about what would happen if you died today?"
Death, the word.
For Qiao Xi, it was a very heavy burden.
What if that person succeeds?
If Huo Xingzhou died, there would be countless people in the imperial capital who would laugh at him.
"No, I know my limits."
"Huo Xingzhou, you really know your limits. You wouldn't leave no one around you. Even if there's only one bodyguard, what important matter could make you disregard your own safety?"
Qiao Xi was tormented, feeling both distressed and angry.
She was afraid that she would say something too harsh and hurt a patient's feelings.
But he was also afraid that if he said it too lightly, Huo Xingzhou would not learn his lesson.
He always ventured alone.
"Qiao Xi."
Huo Xingzhou stretched out his hand and waved gently, "Come and sit down first."
Qiao Xi let out a slow breath, sat in front of him, and waited for him to give a reasonable explanation.
Huo Xingzhou spoke softly, his handsome face looking at her as he said, "I sent those bodyguards out to do something very important."
"Have they all been sent out?"
"Um."
Qiao Xi frowned slightly.
Huo Xingzhou would never do anything useless, so something serious must have happened.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips and asked, "What happened? Can you tell me?"
Huo Xingzhou lowered his eyes slightly and said in a faint voice: "Mr. Cheng has been missing for a long time. We are sure that he is missing and not going into the mountains to collect herbs. My people found some traces. But don't worry, I will find him."
Qiao Xi felt like her heart was hit hard by a hammer.
how so!
"The mark Grandpa Cheng left behind clearly indicates safety. Did you make a mistake?"
"Maybe I'm wrong. I just want to find him as soon as possible. He's your master, and he's half my master too."
Huo Xingzhou's eyes flickered slightly.
He sent many people to look for it, including Zhong Yi.
But no one could find Cheng Han's whereabouts.
Living people move and show signs of life, but dead people are different. With his and Zhong Yi's abilities, it shouldn't have taken so long to find them.
Huo Xingzhou prepared for the worst.
Cheng Han might be dead.
But he would not say such words to Qiao Xi.
