Chapter 138 Falling into the Water
Shen Chutang used her last bit of strength to squat on the ground, trying to reach the phone that fell in front of her, but she couldn't reach it. Big tears fell to the ground. The moment she closed her eyes, she was a little scared, but she was more afraid of Shi Chengyu's fear.
There was no time to complain about the injustice of heaven, nor was there any chance to blame fate for always playing tricks on people. My body fell to the side uncontrollably, rolling down the lawn, with a splash, and huge splashes of water appeared on the surface of the lake.
Shen Chutang felt himself being drowned by the cold lake water, unable to breathe, and even his consciousness gradually faded away.
But she couldn't just die here, Shi Chengyu was still waiting for her at home. Suddenly, a desire to survive burst out from nowhere, and her arms slowly regained some feeling. She waved twice in the water, opened her eyes, shook her head, and tried hard to swim upstream.
Just when she was about to run out of strength, she suddenly heard a dull sound of someone falling into the water, and a vague figure swam towards her.
Someone grabbed Shen Chutang's wrist, and he felt like a balloon floating in the air, with someone suddenly grabbing the rope below and pulling him up little by little.
As they got closer to the shore, the water became much shallower. Shen Chutang was the first to be pushed ashore by the man. She breathed deeply and coughed violently several times, her entire chest vibrating.
Shen Chutang looked back, but found that the person who had pushed her up had not come up yet. She endured the pain and walked down the stairs, pulling the man's clothes little by little. When they were close enough, he grabbed her wrist and walked up.
The two people falling into the water caused quite a stir. Classmates came down from above one after another and helped the two people up. Xie Tong also came with them. When he saw that it was Shen Chutang, he was completely shocked.
"Tangtang?!"
Xie Tong ran over and held her arm, "How are you?"
Seeing that it was an acquaintance coming over, Shen Chutang cried out in pain, then fainted with relief.
Xie Tong took off his coat and put it on her, then quickly sent a message to Shi Chengyu.
A classmate had already called 120 in advance. Xie Tong helped Shen Chutang lean against a tree and waited. He checked her breath and found that she was still breathing. Her disordered heartbeat finally stabilized.
He felt a little relieved, glanced to the side, was stunned for a moment, then frowned. It was Wen Zhi again. It was too much of a coincidence.
Shi Chengyu arrived before the ambulance. Beijing was approaching winter in November, and he was still wearing thin home clothes and was sweating profusely from running.
"Xie Tong, what's going on?"
Shi Chengyu took the person in his arms, and his heart ached when he saw her pale face.
"I don't know either. When I arrived, Tangtang had already been rescued. He was still conscious at the time, but later he fainted." As Xie Tong said this, he heard the sound of an ambulance getting closer.
Shi Chengyu's worry was so deep that it could not be dispelled. Xie Tong hesitated for a moment and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, it shouldn't be serious."
But at this moment Shi Chengyu couldn't hear anything. The ambulance stopped at the side of the road, and medical staff pushed the car down. Shi Chengyu hurriedly put the person in, watched Shen Chutang being pushed into the car, and followed him in. Xie Tong also got in the car.
Behind them, Wen Zhi was also pushed into the ambulance.
The two were sent to the hospital inside the school. The doctor examined Shen Chutang and found that he just fainted after falling into the water and swallowed some water, but it was not serious. After receiving an IV drip, he waited for the car from the Shen family's private hospital to transfer him.
Shen Chutang was awakened by the pain. Although she had changed her wet clothes, she was still cold all over in the warm quilt, even to her bones.
Her limbs felt like they were crushed. She opened her eyes and tears flowed out. She whispered hoarsely, "It hurts..."
Shi Chengyu held her outstretched hand and leaned closer to her, "Where does it hurt, Tangtang?"
Shen Chutang choked up, feeling completely exhausted, and shook her head gently, "My whole body hurts..."
Her hands were very cold, and the coolness flowed down Shi Chengyu's palms straight into his heart. He wrapped the quilt tighter and said, "Okay, let someone give you a painkiller injection. It won't hurt in a while."
Shi Chengyu looked at her eyes that were washed by tears, and couldn't help but hold her in his arms, "Let me hold you, for a while, okay?"
Shen Chutang was unable to respond. She collapsed in his arms, crying silently.
The doctor quickly came over with a medical cart. Shi Chengyu put the patient back on the bed and was about to give him an injection on his buttocks. The female doctor motioned for him to leave first.
Shi Chengyu looked at Shen Chutang lying on the bed in pain, as if he was nailed there. Xie Tong tugged at his sleeve and pulled him out.
After a while, the doctor came out with the medical record and asked, "Has the patient suffered any serious injuries?"
Xie Tong glanced at Shi Chengyu. Those simple words seemed to push him into an endless mood of self-blame. His eyes were bloodshot and he was speechless.
"Yes, she had a car accident before and both of her legs were broken," Xie Tong replied.
The doctor nodded in understanding. "Winter is coming soon. She still needs to be careful. Also, her body recovered too quickly before, but it is not completely healed yet. She can't do strenuous exercise and try not to run or jump, otherwise her body can't bear it."
Shi Chengyu finally came to his senses, "How is she now? Can't this be cured?"
"Wait until the medicine takes effect. Don't walk for a few days." The doctor wrote something in the medical record and raised his head again. "Old diseases are difficult to cure. All you can do is pay more attention to them in your daily life."
Shi Chengyu nodded and walked in past the doctor. Shen Chutang still maintained the same posture as before, and shed tears of grievance when she saw Shi Chengyu coming in.
There was pain everywhere, even in my chest when I breathed.
Shen Chutang grabbed the corner of Shi Chengyu's clothes, panting hard, and raised his limp arms with great effort, touching the corners of his eyes, "Don't cry..."
"Okay." Shi Chengyu replied to her with a sob, holding her hand and putting it down, "Tangtang, be good and don't move around."
Shi Chengyu held her head and let her lean on his arms, and the tears that she had been holding back for a long time finally fell.
He wanted to feel her pain, but there was nothing he could do. He could only hold her and watch her cry in pain, but she was still trying to comfort him.
Shi Chengyu kissed her forehead lovingly and waited with her for the painkillers to take effect. Seeing her brows gradually relax, his heart, which had been in a state of tension, slowly relaxed.
After Shen Chutang fell asleep again, Shi Chengyu carried her into the car and transferred her to another hospital. The medical conditions in the Shen family's private hospital were better, and the doctors also had a better understanding of Shen Chutang's condition.
After another examination, she was given another injection of sedative and sleeping pills to help her sleep more comfortably.
Lin Shulan received the message and brought clothes for him to change into. Knowing that he would not leave even if Shen Chutang did not wake up tonight, he also had someone bring him food.
The chair next to the bed seemed to have become his residence. He refused to leave for even a moment. As long as the patient was not awake, he would stay there to feel at ease.
