When Song Shutian saw Jiang Qiao lying in the room, his eyes turned red. This was the first time he had ever seen the girl lifeless since they met.
From the time they met until now, Jiang Qiao had always seemed energetic and kind-hearted. He never knew that this girl could be like this.
He reached out and felt Jiang Qiao's pulse; it was very weak. "Girl, you have to hold on. I'll get someone to come right away."
He ran next door to make a phone call, then ran back and stayed by Jiang Qiao's side.
When Liu Zhanyu came up, he saw Song Shutian sitting blankly next to Jiang Qiao, his hand still feeling the girl's pulse.
"How is it? How is the child?"
Song Shutian glanced at Liu Zhanyu and said, "They're very weak. I'm afraid they won't make it in time. When will they arrive? Quickly send someone to light three bonfires in the valley so the plane can land. Hurry, I'll stay here and keep watch."
Liu Zhanyu nodded hurriedly, "I'll give the order right away, don't worry, it will be quick."
After giving instructions to his subordinates on the preparations, Liu Zhanyu couldn't wait any longer and came back to see Jiang Qiao.
Touching the child's slightly cold hand, Liu Zhanyu choked up, "It's all my fault. If I could have held the girl down, she wouldn't have been ambushed. It's all my fault. The child keeps calling me 'Dad,' but I, her father, haven't done anything for her—"
Song Shutian's eyes welled up with tears. To be honest, he had seen many storms, but seeing Jiang Qiao like this, he didn't know how to describe his feelings. Back then, such a young girl could fight alongside him. He never thought that Jiang Qiao would fall one day. He always thought that this girl was the most powerful and that nothing could stop her.
He gave a wry smile. "Don't be fooled by Jiang Qiao calling me 'Big Brother.' As her older brother, I haven't done anything for her. On the contrary, I've received a lot of help from her. I don't know how to explain this to Jiang Qiao's family."
Jiang Qiao, you can't get into trouble. So many people are counting on you.
You've forgotten that you still have a grandfather to support, so many children to help, and so many patients relying on you for treatment.
You can't just abandon us. I'm telling you, we haven't found the lone wolf yet. Have you forgotten? You haven't avenged yourself.
Speaking of this, Song Shutian suddenly stood up. "Old Liu, you stay here and watch over the girl. When the plane arrives, I'm going to interrogate that person."
Liu Zhanyu nodded gravely. "It's time to interrogate them properly. Go ahead, I'll keep watch."
After Song Shutian left, Liu Zhanyu continued talking to Jiang Qiao.
"Girl, those people are either dead or captured, none of them escaped. You can rest assured now. Our medicine has worked quite well. However, you seem to be a bit inaccurate this time. That person was injured by the comrades on the other side."
You said you managed to avoid it last time, why couldn't you do it this time? Sigh, it's all my fault. If I had let you stay inside, nothing would have happened.
Jiang Qiao, you have to hold on! The plane is almost here. Didn't you tell me you wanted to take the college entrance exam? You need to get better quickly. We need to be college students, it's so honorable! Most people can't even pass the exam, but you definitely can. But first, you have to wake up…”
Liu Zhanyu chatted on and on with Jiang Qiao until the helicopter arrived, at which point the boring conversation finally stopped.
Only after the person was taken into the operating room did Liu Zhanyu have time to ask Song Shutian.
"Xiao Song, what did that person say?"
Song Shutian sighed deeply and said with a heavy heart, "It's such a damn coincidence that today happened. That person was following orders and was targeting Uncle San. If that woman is alright, fine. But if something goes wrong, we'll just take care of her."
However, this person never dreamed that Jiang Qiao would take care of these two people in the back mountain.
You two impersonated those two people, and this idiot believed it and mistook Jiang Qiao for his third uncle.
"Sigh, if the girl had just stayed put, this might not have happened. Who would have thought someone would be specifically targeting her?"
The two sighed and lamented together, unaware that above them, a transparent shadow, enveloped in the original bead, was silently watching the operating room.
She had followed along the way, and although she didn't quite understand what was going on, she knew that what was being resuscitated inside was her physical body. She had thought about going back, but she couldn't get in.
Moreover, the people around her seemed unable to see her, and she didn't understand what was going on. She felt that these people were familiar, but she seemed to have forgotten what their names were.
The figure remained motionless in the hospital for a long time before being blown away by a gust of wind.
Song Shutian suddenly remembered something: "Oh no, I forgot to tell the Gu family."
Old Liu, you stay here and keep watch. Whatever they need, find a way to get it for the girl. You must save Jiang Qiao. I'm going to make a call.
Song Shutian first called Gu Zhengkai. It was almost dawn, so the man should have woken up by now.
There was a public phone near Gu Zhengkai's dormitory. Gu Zhengkai was washing up when the person in the downstairs gatehouse shouted, "Gu Zhengkai, the phone, hurry up—"
Gu Zhengkai didn't care about anything else and rushed downstairs with foam on his lips.
Seeing his state, the other person quickly reminded him, "Hurry up and wipe yourself clean. They said they're looking for you and it's urgent."
Gu Zhengkai hastily wiped the foam from his mouth with a towel.
If you can find him, it must be a family member. For them to call at this time, it must be something extremely urgent. According to family members' habits, no one would contact him unless it was a matter of life and death.
"Hello, this is Gu Zhengkai. Who is this?"
"I am Song Shutian, Brother Gu. Jiang Qiao is being treated at the provincial hospital. If you don't have anything urgent, come over quickly."
"What? What happened to our Qiao'er? Tell me properly."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhengkai's voice immediately rose eight octaves. "It's only been a few days, and the child is already in the hospital?"
When I left, their child was perfectly fine. How could this have happened so suddenly?
"Brother Gu, it's not convenient to explain over the phone. You'd better come over quickly. We're worried that the child won't be able to hold on. I still need to call your brother and the others. You know the address, right? Come over quickly."
Gu Zhengkai didn't have time to ask any more questions. He threw down the phone and stumbled upstairs. He needed to get dressed before he could go.
He ran into his colleague on the way and quickly asked him to ask for leave. Upon learning that Gu Zhengkai's niece was in the hospital receiving emergency treatment, his colleague urged him to go there immediately.
"I understand. You should go now. I'll talk to my supervisor about what happened at work."
Seeing Gu Zhengkai's distraught appearance, his colleague couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.
Those of us living in the dormitory know how much Gu Zhengkai dotes on his niece. The girl would send her uncle delicious food from time to time, which was quite a treat for us. Sigh, I wonder how that girl is doing.
Yesterday, he was drinking with Gu Zhengkai, eating meat and pig's trotters that Gu's niece brought back. And now, this kid's in trouble? Where did he go?
