It would take some time for Gu Yao to arrive, so Xuan Mingyu wrapped Bai Xiaoruo in his coat, afraid that she would be exposed to the cold wind.
Bright red blood kept gushing from her injured arm, as if her clothes had been soaked through by rain, but it wasn't rainwater, it was blood.
Bai Xiaoruo was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. She also didn't have the strength to push Xian Mingyu away. She leaned weakly against him, letting him hold her, her face pale.
Whenever she was in so much pain that she was about to faint, Xuan Mingyu would wake her up, saying, "Bai Xiaoruo, don't sleep, you absolutely can't sleep now. You'll be fine, I won't let anything happen to you, you're not allowed to sleep, do you hear me!"
She bled a lot, and Xuan Mingyu panicked immediately. He forgot all reason and common sense. He was afraid that if she fell asleep, she would fall into a deep sleep forever and never wake up again.
It was all his fault. He shouldn't have yelled at her so loudly. He shouldn't have pulled her down the stairs so forcefully. Even if he had pulled her down, he should have pulled her into his arms instead of throwing her directly to the ground.
Gu Yao had already driven the car over, and Xuan Mingyu quickly carried Bai Xiaoruo into the car.
Looking in the rearview mirror, Gu Yao saw the injured Bai Xiaoruo and the worried Xian Mingyu. His hands were covered in Bai Xiaoruo's blood. Gu Yao was puzzled. What happened to the two of them?
She was fine before, how could she suddenly be injured? And it looks like the injury is quite serious.
"Mingyu, are you two having another fight?"
Xian Mingyu didn't say anything. He held Bai Xiaoruo tightly in his arms and raised her injured arm to try to stop the bleeding.
The shards of the vase were deeply embedded in her arm, some large and some small. Xuan Mingyu dared not move her or pull the shards out carelessly, for fear of causing her further harm.
Ten minutes later, the car arrived at the hospital.
Bai Xiaoruo was placed on an emergency bed, and the doctors and nurses quickly wheeled her into the operating room.
Xuan Mingyu stood at the door of the operating room, watching the red light above the door light up, still feeling somewhat lost.
When he put the little girl down from his arms and watched her being wheeled into the operating room, Xuan Mingyu suddenly felt a deep emptiness and pain in his heart.
How could this happen...? This shouldn't be happening...
He really didn't intend to hurt her.
Because he was used to her being at home, when he came home from get off work and didn't see Bai Xiaoruo, and waited for a while but she still didn't come home, he called the school and found out that she had taken the day off, and was on sick leave. He was immediately a little angry. Why hadn't she told him she was on leave? He wondered if she was sick...
But then he thought, she has always been in good health. Could it be that she deliberately took leave to go out with Ji Ziqian? Just thinking about this made Xian Mingyu feel uncomfortable. He had finally waited for her to come back, but he couldn't control his temper and got so angry with her.
He should have just asked her questions properly and everything would have been fine. He shouldn't have been so mean to her or so violent.
Gu Yao glanced at Xuan Mingyu beside him. His clothes were stained with blood, and his hands were covered in Bai Xiaoruo's blood, a gruesome sight. "Mingyu, I know you're worried about her, but this surgery won't be over anytime soon. Why don't you go back and change your clothes? You..."
"No need, I don't want to go back yet. You should go back. Thank you for coming tonight."
"You don't need to be so polite with me. Okay, I'll head back now. Call me if there's anything I can help you with."
"Um."
"By the way, about Grandpa... are you planning to tell them about Xiaoruo's injury?"
"Grandpa can't know yet, I don't want him and Grandma to worry... Also, can you help me find out Bai Xiaoruo's whereabouts today? Who she met and what she did? I need to know everything."
"I see."
Gu Yao took one last look at the brightly lit operating room, then turned and left the hospital.
***
The surgery lasted until after 2 a.m. Bai Xiaoruo was transferred to a VIP ward under the Xuan family's name. Actually, she was already fine, so it was equivalent to staying in a regular ward, but the care would be more meticulous. The room was also very large and quiet, and it was equipped with a kitchen and bathroom. Bai Xiaoruo was the only one staying there.
After learning that she was out of danger, Xian Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief and went back to change into clean clothes before visiting her at the hospital.
She removed all the shards of the vase that were embedded in her flesh, bandaged the wound, and tied it with a bandage.
When Xian Mingyu opened Bai Xiaoruo's hospital room, she was lying quietly on the bed, fast asleep with her eyes closed, and she had already changed into a clean hospital gown.
His injured arm was wrapped in thick bandages, and his other hand was receiving an IV drip.
He walked to her side and pulled the blanket up a little higher.
When I touched her hand, which was receiving an IV drip, I realized that her hand was very cold, even though the ward was heated.
Her face was still very pale, after all, she had lost so much blood at once.
Xuan Mingyu walked to the sofa by the wall and sat down, staying there to keep Bai Xiaoruo company for the entire night.
......
The next morning, Xuan Mingyu was woken up by a phone call from Gu Yao. Considering that Bai Xiaoruo was still there, he quickly answered the phone and stopped the ringing.
"What's up?"
[Mingyu, what time is it? Why aren't you at the company yet? The meeting starts in half an hour. Are you still at the hospital with Xiaoruo?]
Xuan Mingyu raised his hand and glanced at his watch. It was already nine o'clock in the morning. Indeed, he had asked Gu Yao to arrange an important meeting at nine-thirty yesterday, and as the company's president, he absolutely could not be absent.
