Yuan Zhou looked at the phone and made a decision in his heart. He picked up the phone again and made a call.
On the other side, Ling Hong put away his phone and looked at Ruan Xiaoqing who was sleeping on the bed. Ling Hong, who was 1.8 meters tall, almost shed tears.
But soon, Ling Hong recovered his usual sunny expression. He put on the mask and walked to Ruan Xiaoqing's bedside.
"Xiaoqing, did you hear that? Boss Yuan said he will serve a new dish. It is the Jiangsu Cuisine that you have been longing for for a long time. Do you want to eat it?" Ling Hong sat on the bed and said gently.
"You apologized to me that day. I haven't had time to reply to you. Wake up soon. You said that you don't like to owe others. I will pay the medical fees. I am still waiting for you to work for me to pay off the debt." Ling Hong's words were a little messy, but his voice was still very soft.
Ruan Xiaoqing had been sleeping with her eyes closed. While talking, Ling Hong looked at Ruan Xiaoqing and his thoughts went back to the night two days ago.
As usual, after they finished the meal, Ling Hong sent Ruan Xiaoqing home. This was a tacit understanding between the two. Although they hadn't officially been together, Ling Hong had always asked himself to be a boyfriend.
Moreover, he knew that the reason why Ruan Xiaoqing didn't agree so late was not because she didn't have feelings for him, but because she didn't dare to. Therefore, Ling Hong basically seized every opportunity to confess his love.
It was necessary to be thick-skinned when it came to love. This was the most important rule in the 18 Ways to Woo a Girl that Ling Hong had revised.
On the way back, Ling Hong looked at the bright street lights and said again, "Xiaoqing, the street lights are so bright tonight. Why don't you be my girlfriend? Then we can enjoy such bright street lights every day."
Hearing such a strange confession, Ruan Xiaoqing couldn't help but smile. She said, "Your words are getting stranger and stranger."
"No, I mean it." Ling Hong shook his head and looked at Ruan Xiaoqing with a smile.
"Isn't it strange? The street lights are so bright every day. Ever since Boss Yuan opened his restaurant here, it has been so bright. It will always be so bright in the future," Ruan Xiaoqing said mischievously.
"Yeah, so are you willing to look at such a bright street lamp with me every day?" Ling Hong stroked his hair and said confidently.
Ruan Xiaoqing couldn't help but laugh when she saw Ling Hong's flirtatious and funny look. But at this time, she felt a sharp pain. Ruan Xiaoqing was used to it and didn't even frown. She was about to speak again, but she underestimated the pain this time.
The immense pain instantly numbed Ruan Xiaoqing's entire body. She staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Ling Hong at the side quickly held Ruan Xiaoqing's arms and prevented her from falling. Looking at Ruan Xiaoqing who lowered her head in front of him, Ling Hong was flustered in his heart. But he still said jokingly, "Hey, forget it if you don't agree. You don't have to scare me by falling."
Although he said so, Ling Hong was actually getting more and more flustered in his heart. He felt that Ruan Xiaoqing's body was slipping as if she couldn't stand. Ling Hong could only hold her thin arms more tightly to help her stand.
After a while, Ruan Xiaoqing looked up at Ling Hong with a completely pale face and said, "I'm sorry, I can't."
Ruan Xiaoqing forced herself to finish this sentence and then closed her eyes directly.
"Xiaoqing!" Ling Hong didn't care about anything else. He directly picked her up and ran to the parking lot at the intersection of Taoxi Road.
Ling Hong felt that he had never run so fast before. Fine sweat seeped out of his forehead. His arms held Ruan Xiaoqing firmly and steadily. With a serious expression on his face, he ran very fast.
It was at this moment that Ling Hong felt that his brain was more and more awake. He was even sober enough to call Dr. Herbert while driving.
Ling Hong suddenly heard himself calmly telling Dr. Herbert about Ruan Xiaoqing's situation. His voice was so calm that even Ling Hong himself was a little scared.
The car drove steadily on the road. Soon, they arrived at the door of the private hospital where they had an appointment with Dr. Herbert. Dr. Herbert and a whole group of doctors and nurses were waiting at the door.
Ling Hong turned off the engine and directly put Ruan Xiaoqing on the ambulance bed according to Dr. Herbert's instructions. Then, he followed Dr. Herbert to the door of the emergency room and was stopped by the door.
Ling Hong stared at the door and was a little stunned. It was Magnon who broke the silence. "She will be fine. Herbert's medical skills are very good."
"Yes, she will be fine. She hasn't promised me yet. Sorry doesn't count as an answer," Ling Hong turned around and said seriously.
"Yes, she will be fine," Sharon nodded and agreed.
"Yes," Ling Hong nodded heavily.
Dr. Herbert and the local doctors worked for three hours before the door of the emergency room opened again.
Ling Hong was the only one left at the door. Magnon had left a long time ago with Sharon, who needed some rest.
Seeing the medical staff in white robes come out one after another, Ling Hong stood rooted to the spot. His legs were a little numb, and he could not move for a moment.
My legs are a little numb from standing for too long, Ling Hong thought to himself, but he was looking straight at Dr. Herbert.
"Hey, Gner, are you alright?" Dr. Herbert took the initiative to ask.
"I'm fine. Doctor, may I ask …" Ling Hong could not finish his sentence. He stared at the door of the emergency room. His meaning was self-evident.
"She's fine now. She just needs some rest," Dr. Herbert immediately said.
"Thank you," Ling Hong was instantly filled with the joy of surviving a disaster. He strode into the emergency room.
"Wait, Gner. I think you need to know the details." Dr. Herbert stopped Ling Hong from going in immediately.
"Alright." Ling Hong stopped and turned to Dr. Herbert.
The two of them arrived at Dr. Herbert's temporary office in silence. Ling Hong did not sit down. He looked at the doctor on the chair and waited for him to speak first.
"We've discussed Miss Ruan's condition last time. She's just having a relapse this time," Dr. Herbert said as he flipped through the medical records.
"I know." Ling Hong nodded.
"This means her condition is starting to deteriorate. You must be mentally prepared," Dr. Herbert said without using any technical terms.
After all, Dr. Herbert had actually returned to his country once before. He was invited over by Ling Hong and Magnon again because Sharon and Ruan Xiaoqing could only eat a third of their food in Yuanzhou shop.
During this period, Magnon, Ling Hong, and Dr. Herbert had discussed it countless times. It could be said that they understood the situation very well. That was why Dr. Herbert was so direct.
"She'll make it. She loves Boss Yuan's cooking. Boss Yuan has a lot of new dishes," Ling Hong said.
"Yes, that's important, but it's not medicine. You must stay rational," Dr. Herbert said.
"I know. I want to accompany her." Ling Hong nodded and did not say anything else.
"Go." Dr. Herbert nodded. He looked at Ling Hong, who was about to leave the office, and said, "I'll try my best."
"Thank you, Doctor." Ling Hong nodded and walked out of the office.
