Chapter 319 When was the accident? You were by her side
Li Luo held Shang Wanwan's hand, which was badly burned and felt heartbroken.
Shang Wanwan felt numb and felt no pain at all.
"Sister, my mother's paintings are gone. They were all burned."
Shang Wanwan's eyes were dull and she was in a state of madness.
"Don't worry about the painting. I'll take you to the hospital."
Li Luo wanted to help Shang Wanwan up from the ground. Her hands were badly burned. If she didn't go to the hospital, she might not be able to save her hands.
"Mom's paintings are gone. Gone. Everything is over. It's all my fault."
Shang Wanwan kept muttering to herself as the painting burned down to nothing but ashes and some wood residue that had turned into charcoal.
It's dark.
Chen Xin was abandoned by the bodyguards. The old man left the three siblings behind contentedly and ordered his servants to drive them out.
All the resentment that had been bubbling in my heart for years was burned away by the fire.
The old man finally vented his anger and thought Mrs. Chen was dead.
He didn't care about his three grandchildren at all.
"Second sister, go to the hospital."
Chen Xin used all her strength to pick Shang Wanwan up from the ground.
Li Luo got in the car and the black business car drove towards the hospital like crazy.
Shang Wanwan nestled in Chen Xin's arms, her eyes empty and unfocused.
Her cell phone was in her hand, and it kept ringing.
Shang Wanwan was sent to the emergency room, and Li Luo finally had time to answer the phone.
"Wanwan, I went to the exhibition hall and didn't see you."
Huo Dongming's voice came steadily from the other end of the phone.
Li Luo became upset after hearing this and couldn't help yelling into the phone.
"Go to the fucking art exhibition. Your wife is in the hospital now. Come here quickly."
Li Luo said while crying.
Emotions got out of control.
Huo Dongming's grip was slightly tense, and his hand holding the phone was shaking a little.
"Hospital? What happened?"
"Don't ask, you'll know when you come."
Li Luo is no longer stubborn at this time, and Huo Dongming will definitely be able to save Shang Wanwan.
In less than ten minutes, Huo Dongming arrived anxiously according to the address given by Li Luo.
"What happened?"
His cold and handsome eyes swept over the two people in the corridor.
Chen Xin, and Li Luo.
A brother and sister to be exact.
They finally got together, that is, they recognized each other.
It's a good thing, why did you come to the hospital again?
"Wanwan's hand is disabled. The old man burned our mother's paintings, and Wanwan reached into the fire to grab them. Her hand——"
Li Luo choked with sobs and sobbed, unable to speak clearly.
"It's such a big deal, why are you telling me now?"
The anger that Huo Dongming could not suppress suddenly burst out. If Li Luo was not a woman, he would have beaten her up long ago.
"What can I tell you? If you really cared about her a little bit, you wouldn't have made such a fuss. Aren't you her husband? You always say you love her, but you've always been there for her when something happened. You're no better than the dog you two saved."
Li Luo's tears kept falling.
Like beads on a broken string, they just can't stop.
"Grandpa did it."
Chen Xin sat on a chair in the corridor, her lonely shadow slanting.
"What grandpa? An old man is just an old man. I don't recognize him. Huo Dongming, your wife is in the emergency room now. Just tell me whether you will take revenge or not."
Huo Dongming immediately pushed open the door of the emergency room, and several doctors and nurses were doing their best to treat the burns on Shang Wanwan's hands.
When he walked in, Shang Wanwan was still in a daze.
"Wanwan——"
He looked at Shang Wanwan, and her unfocused eyes made him feel distressed.
Perhaps Huo Dongming's voice somehow evoked her memory, and after being called several times she finally responded.
"My mother's paintings are gone. I failed to protect them."
Huo Dongming walked up to her and the doctors gave her local anesthesia and repaired the skin on her hands.
"It's okay, you've done your best, I don't blame you."
Huo Dongming looked at Shang Wanwan's hands and couldn't believe that those slender and slender hands holding the paintbrush had now become indistinguishable from skin and flesh. There was even an unpleasant smell of burnt food in the air.
She tried her best to grab it.
"Silly, why did you go and grab those paintings yourself? Your mother wouldn't want you to do that. Look at your hands, don't you want to hold a paintbrush anymore?"
There was a hint of moisture in the corners of Huo Dongming's eyes. His woman had such a deep obsession with painting that she never gave up even in such a bad marriage with him.
Now that her hands are like this, how will she paint in the future?
"I don't know. I don't think about it that much."
She just wanted to get the painting back. She couldn't bear to see her mother's years of hard work go to waste.
"Okay, I know."
Huo Dongming held her in his arms and did not let her look at his hands.
The doctor treated her promptly and wrapped her hands with thick gauze.
"Mr. Huo, can you come over here?"
The attending physician called Huo Dongming aside with a heavy heart.
"I'll be out for a moment. I'll be right back."
He held her in his arms and comforted her gently.
Only then did Shang Wanwan feel scared.
There was a look of helpless confusion in his eyes.
"My hands are useless, right?"
She's finished.
She could no longer paint.
"Don't think like that. I'm here so it won't happen. Don't worry."
Huo Dongming ignored the presence of doctors and nurses and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.
At this moment, Shang Wanwan was like a frightened rabbit, nodding blankly.
"How is my wife?"
After leaving the emergency room, Huo Dongming put on a cold face, looking as if he wanted to keep strangers away.
"It may be a bit tricky. Mrs. Huo's burns are quite large, and the treatment will take a long time. And judging from the extent of the burns on the palms of her hands, skin grafts are needed."
"Is there any damage to the tissue? I mean—"
He didn't want to say the following words.
The subcutaneous tissue, which is the subcutaneous tissue, will suffer from muscle atrophy and deformation after being burned by high temperature.
Not only is the hand useless, but it can no longer be called a hand.
The doctor looked at Huo Dongming and gave him a reassuring answer.
"No, it's just a little bit ugly for a while. After all, people have instincts. Mrs. Huo was grabbing things in the fire, and she instinctively let go when she felt pain. She is not like someone who was burned in the fire. But if it was a little later, it would really cause permanent damage, and there would be no possibility of recovery."
This is the best result the doctor has given.
Huo Dongming felt relieved.
"No matter what the cost, I need my wife's hands to be intact."
The doctor nodded.
"Don't worry, Mr. Huo. We will do our best."
Li Luo was also waiting for the result.
She watched Huo Dongming talking to the doctor patiently, and observed their expressions, sometimes frowning, sometimes calm, and her heart was beating fast.
"What did the doctor say? Is there any hope for Wanwan's hand?"
She really tried her best to stop her at that time, how could she have known that she would be so stupid.
“It’s a little troublesome, but I can still paint.”
The doctor didn't say that, he just said the hand wouldn't become deformed or atrophied.
Huo Dongming knew that Li Luo and Shang Wanwan had a good relationship. This woman was straightforward and could not keep secrets. If he told her, he was afraid that she would exaggerate, which would be detrimental to Shang Wanwan's condition.
"That's good. I was scared to death."
