87. His Human World
Fifteen minutes later, in a ward at Mei+ Hospital.
"Miss Ke, don't be afraid. Just rest here. No one will disturb you. Mr. Gu will be here soon."
Keqi sat on the bed with a pale face, while the succubus nurse beside her kept comforting her.
“Mr. Gu? Her husband?” Chu Ling frowned, recalling the surveillance footage she had just seen. “Then let’s not do it. Wouldn’t that just cause more trouble?”
After she finished speaking, she pushed the female succubus nurse in charge out, saying, "Okay, thank you. You can go back to your work. She's just a little frightened. I can comfort her."
She had barely finished speaking when, "Bang!"
A tall figure rushed in, and in his haste, he even bumped into the door frame.
Keqi couldn't stand loud noises and immediately flinched in fright.
But the next second, she was completely enveloped in a large, sturdy body.
"Qiqi".
Her voice was hoarse with lingering fear, lacking her usual composure, as if she would be shattered at any moment: "It's alright, that's great."
Keqi blinked slowly, unable to see his face, but she could feel the familiar scent of hormones unique to her lover.
"Gu~"
She tried to call out to him, but he held her too tightly, almost so tightly that she couldn't breathe.
In this oppressive atmosphere, a wet sensation followed on the collarbone and cheeks.
Ke Qi was stunned for a moment before she noticed the blood winding its way down from his head.
Her breath hitched: "Gu Zhao!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the force holding her suddenly loosened, and then with a "bang," Gu Zhao fell backward to the ground.
"Gu Zhao!!!"
Amidst the chaos of war, Ke Qi quickly bent down to help.
It was only then that she could see his current appearance clearly.
He had multiple abrasions all over his body, and blood kept flowing from his head.
It was obvious that he looked like he had just been in a car accident.
But what we see now are only the more obvious external injuries.
What about internal injuries?
Tears welled up instantly.
Holding her unconscious lover in her arms, Ke Qi looked pleadingly at Chu Ling, who was standing there dumbfounded: "Chu Ling, quickly call a doctor for me!"
"oh oh!"
Chu Ling then realized what was happening and hurriedly went to find a doctor.
An hour later, outside the emergency room.
Upon receiving the news, An Qingyao, Gu Zhuoyan, and the siblings Gu Ye and Gu Xi all rushed to the hospital.
"Mr. Gu's condition is not optimistic."
At this moment, the assistant doctor in charge of the resuscitation came out and briefly explained the situation:
"Judging from the injuries, Mr. Gu must have just been in two car accidents. The fact that he has been able to hold on until now is entirely due to the frenzied action of his adrenaline."
The doctor's expression was serious: "He has lost too much blood, and not only does he have intracranial injury, but he also has multiple fractures and ruptured internal organs..."
With each additional word he uttered, Ke Qi and the Gu family's hearts sank further. In the end, all they could do was beg the doctor to save Gu Zhao's life.
As a result, Ke Qi, An Qingyao, and Gu Xi all cried their eyes out.
Gu Zhuoyan and Gu Ye, father and son, also looked grave and hurriedly ordered their subordinates to gather the top medical professionals from all the hospitals under Shengyao Group.
"Don't worry, everything will be alright."
As a friend, Chu Ling could only do so much, constantly comforting Ke Qi.
"This is the Mei+ Hospital, which brings together the world's most skilled succubus doctors."
“Your husband is just a human. Even if ordinary medical methods can’t save him, doctors have other special methods. It’s simpler than saving a succubus.”
“Look at that pregnant woman who fell from the building today. She was shattered to pieces, but the baby in her womb could still be saved.”
"And that baby was only full-term. Even if it lost its mother, it could still be kept in a petri dish until full term. What does that mean?"
Chu Ling clapped her hands: "That means the doctors here are incredibly skilled, they're amazing!"
"If this happened in a regular human hospital, the baby would have died hundreds of times over!"
Hearing this, Keqi did receive some comfort, but she still couldn't stop crying.
Just then, the door to the emergency room opened again.
The doctor spoke, bringing both good news and bad news.
The good news is that Gu Zhao's life can be saved.
As for the bad news...
Three days later, in the VIP ward where they were transferred.
Keqi touched the horn sprouting on his head and found it unbelievable: "You've really become one of my kind?"
"Maybe."
Gu Zhao looked at the congee she handed him, but had no appetite. He just kept staring at the obvious needle mark left by the blood draw on her arm.
This is his first day after waking up following surgery.
Ke Qi felt his gaze and quickly covered her mouth with her hand, smiling at him, "This is from a medical check-up I had a lot of fright a couple of days ago, it's nothing..."
"Don't hide it from me," Gu Zhao interrupted her. "I know everything."
He looked into her eyes: "When I was unconscious, I vaguely heard a silly girl crying and saying that she was willing to give me all her blood."
So, with his strong willpower, he persevered.
"At that moment," he chuckled, "I was thinking, 'If I don't wake up soon, how much I'll let her down?'"
Upon hearing this, Ke Qi couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.
"Gu Zhao".
She hugged him, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "The doctor said that based on your injuries that day, you must have been in two car accidents."
"Why did this happen?" she asked with a worried expression. "Was someone doing this on purpose...?"
"no."
Gu Zhao rubbed her head: "I was accidentally hit while driving and walking. It was just an accident. Don't overthink it."
Of course, what he didn't say was that the reason this accident happened was entirely due to that stupid doctor at Meizu who grabbed the wrong phone and dialed the wrong number.
Even now, he can still recall how he felt at that time.
The words "wife fell from building" and "full-term S-class succubus fetus" were like a blunt knife stabbing into his heart, causing him to go blank with pain.
So much so that he didn't have time to think about the flaws in his language, and just rushed to the hospital like a madman.
During the incident, he was speeding and ran a red light. When he was only 300 meters away from the hospital, he was hit by a car that came speeding towards him.
Then, with sheer willpower, he dragged his dazed body from the wrecked car and continued running toward the hospital. In his haste, he was hit by another vehicle.
But at that time, it seemed like I couldn't feel it at all.
His mind was filled with the image of his wife, an image he had imagined, of their adorable baby whom she hadn't yet had a chance to tell him about.
This continued until he arrived at the hospital entrance and received an apology call from the doctor who had caused the misunderstanding.
At that moment, it was as if he had just returned to the world of the living from hell.
But due to the excessive fright, he remained afraid.
He was completely relieved when he rushed into the ward the doctor had mentioned and saw her safe and sound.
"Ke Qiqi".
He tenderly stroked the needle marks on her arm, and said with lingering fear, "From now on, take a bodyguard with you when you go out, so I don't have to worry."
"Not many, just ten. They're just right, keeping an eye on everything and listening to everything around them."
Keqi: ...
To seize the young?
