Chapter 167 Let's try a different approach
On the way to the hospital, Chen Chu drove very fast, while also notifying Chen Ci to rush to the hospital immediately.
"Big brother, I finally got a good night's sleep..."
"Stop talking nonsense! This is a matter of life and death!" Chen Chu calmly and composedly explained Jian Yan's situation, and Chen Ci finally took it to heart: "Okay, brother, I'll be in the office today and arrange for emergency medical assistance immediately. Be careful on your way."
Jian Yan was unconscious the whole time until she was taken to the emergency room. In a daze, she opened her eyes again and saw a man in a sterile suit. Although only his eyes were visible, Jian Yan knew who he was.
He is Chen Ci.
...
Chen Chu waited until the surgery was over before being safely moved to the intensive care unit.
He breathed a sigh of relief and followed Chen Ci into the office. The nurse brought in two cups of coffee, and the two of them sat on the sofa to rest, each with a cup.
Chen Ci was somewhat surprised: "Brother, how did you know Jian Yan was suicidal again so late at night?"
Chen Chu swirled the coffee in his cup: "Brother Fei thought Jian Yan knew Miss Ye's exact address in Nanshi, so he asked me to call her and find out. After answering the phone, I heard her screaming for help, and then I brought her here."
Chen Ci's eyes held a hint of mockery: "That's not right, brother. Whether you were at the company or at home, you were quite a distance from the film academy. In that time, why didn't you call an ambulance for her?"
Chen Chu glared at him: "Why do you talk so much?"
"Just curious." Chen Ci leaned closer. "Tell me, what kind of coincidence happened?"
Chen Chu gave him a push: "There's no such thing as a coincidence. My car just happened to be near the Film Academy at the time, so it was more convenient to get there. Besides, I don't trust the emergency services at other hospitals."
Chen Ci shrugged: "Didn't you and Fei Ye be in cahoots and think I was a quack doctor?"
Just as Chen Chu was about to curse him out, he received a call from Lin Feiyan, telling him to take the earliest flight to Nanshi the next day.
After hanging up Lin Feiyan's call, he looked at his watch; it was almost 3 a.m.
He stood up: "I have to go to Nanshi. Take good care of Jianyan here. She's Miss Ye's friend, so we can't afford any mishaps."
"Understood." Chen Ci responded with a yawn and watched Chen Chu leave the office.
He leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest. Why did Jian Yan start threatening suicide again as soon as Ye Qingning left Qing City?
What's the connection between these two?
In the past, when Jian Yan attempted suicide, she was always discovered by accident by others. This time, however, she actively sought help.
Does this mean she didn't actually want to die?
Did she regret her actions during the suicide attempt, or did she try to gain something through suicide?
He stared blankly at the ceiling with his hands behind his head. As a doctor, he always believed in science, but also believed that there were many things in the world that science could not explain.
For example, his recent successful experiment on transferring brainwaves in mice.
...
Her hazy dreams were filled with memories of the past. In just a few months, she seemed to have experienced a lot, but these experiences were too complicated, so she chose to forget them. Yet, the memories of the past always followed her like a shadow.
The boy who looked at her with disgust, the boy who spoke harshly with a blank expression, the boy who forcefully shoved a notebook into her hand...
"With grades like yours, you think you can date me?" "Wouldn't it be better to use the time you spend trying to get my attention to study?" "These are my class notes. If you can understand them, I'll admit defeat!"
So he must like her too, right?
Right?
She kept asking herself this question on the way to the airport.
Suddenly, a sharp screech of brakes was followed by a violent impact, and with a bang, her world vanished...
Jian Yan suddenly opened her eyes, and what came into view was a refined and handsome face, with a hint of wickedness in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and a slight smile on her lips.
In the dream, the boy's face perfectly overlapped with the man in front of him.
Jian Yan smiled, a slight smirk spreading across her face: "Chen Ci..."
Chen Ci raised an eyebrow slightly: "Not bad, you still recognize me, which means you've recovered well."
Jian Yan pursed her lips and said, "Thank you for saving me."
"Don't mention it." Chen Ci said while giving her a quick examination, "Saving lives is a doctor's duty, especially since you're Xiao Yezi's only friend. If anything were to happen to you, she would be heartbroken, wouldn't she?"
Jian Yan paused for a moment and then said, "Hmm."
After the examination, Chen Ci nodded in satisfaction: "It seems I've done another good deed. Your body will recover to normal after some rest, but..."
He looked at her with a smile in his eyes: "Will you continue to attempt suicide? If you do, I might not be able to save you forever!"
Jian Yan caught a glimpse of the bright sunlight streaming in through the window and smiled slightly: "No, it won't happen again."
Chen Ci raised an eyebrow: "That's good."
Jian Yan stared intently as he quickly wrote the results on the diagnosis report, and casually asked, "Dr. Chen Ci, your grades must be pretty good, right?"
"Not good." Chen Ci glanced at her during a brief moment of rest. "I only like studying medicine."
Jian Yan's eyes dimmed for a moment, but only for a second, before she smiled again: "Mm."
After finishing his statement, he put the pen back in his pocket, pulled up a chair, sat down beside her bed, and asked, "Tell me, what made you so upset this time?"
Jian Yan avoided his gaze, looking at the ceiling: "It's nothing, I didn't commit suicide to die."
"Not to die?" Chen Ci was somewhat confused. "Then what is it for? To experience the feeling of being on the verge of death?"
Jian Yan thought about it seriously and nodded: "Yes."
Seeing that her expression didn't seem to be joking, Chen Ci was speechless for a long time before finally saying, "Then can you tell me what it feels like?"
After a moment of silence, Jian Yan turned to look at him, her voice quite soft: "I feel... I can't quite remember, but I got the result I wanted."
"The desired outcome?" Chen Ci raised an eyebrow slightly. "For example?"
Jian Yan laughed: "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."
Seeing that she seemed even more optimistic than before, Chen Ci felt relieved: "Alright, then I'll keep watch over your secrets. I'm tired, you should get some rest. I need to go back to sleep."
Jian Yan was taken aback: "You've been here all night?"
Chen Ci nodded with a helpless expression: "Otherwise what? After all, I'm the one who saved him, I can't just shirk my responsibility."
His words stunned Jian Yan. Although she knew he didn't mean it that way, she was still filled with emotion and joy.
Even long after Chen Ci left, the man's words kept replaying in her mind: "I can't just shirk responsibility."
In short, I cover my face.
Joy spread from the corners of his eyes and brows.
...
Nanshi.
After a night of investigation, Chen Tang was unable to find the phone number Lin Feiyan wanted.
As the golden sunlight streamed into the hotel, Lin Feiyan raised his hand and rubbed his temples: "Chen Tang, let's change our approach."
