Huo Yulin forced a smile on his pale face. He swallowed the blood in his throat again and said, "I should be able to hold on for a little while longer."
"Stop talking." Lei Xiao wanted to put Huo Yulin's hand on his shoulder, but his expression changed when he felt the wet and sticky sleeve on Huo Yulin's wrist.
When he received Huo Yao's message, she had briefed him on the situation.
Huo Yulin had been shot in the chest and had undergone surgery a week ago before he was pulled back from the brink of death.
Lei Xiao only dared to hold Huo Yulin's waist and let him lean on him. He did not dare to move anywhere else for fear of aggravating Huo Yulin's wound.
The elevator reached the underground parking lot before long. When the door opened, Lei Xiao immediately helped Huo Yulin out.
Lei Xiao's phone rang in his pocket.
Lei Xiao did not have the time to answer the call as he supported Huo Yulin. He did not wonder why anyone would call him in the research institute, where all the signals were blocked.
Huo Yulin, who had been leaning on Lei Xiao, almost slipped and fell to the ground when he finally reached the Jeep.
Lei Xiao was shocked. He used all his strength to help Huo Yulin open the car door.
Fortunately, there was no one in the parking lot. After some time, he finally placed Huo Yulin in the back seat.
Huo Yulin was already unconscious.
Lei Xiao was shocked. He hurriedly checked Huo Yulin's pulse. It was so weak that it seemed like it would stop beating at any moment.
Lei Xiao removed his jacket and covered Huo Yulin with it before he hurriedly got into the driver's seat and drove away.
Lei Xiao only took out his phone after the car drove out of the research institute. When he saw the missed call from Huo Yao, he hurriedly called her back.
The call went through almost instantly. Before he could say a word, he heard a woman's cold voice on the other end.
"Turn left at the junction up ahead. Stop 200 meters to the right. I'll wait for you there."
"Okay. Okay." Lei Xiao instinctively nodded and obeyed her instructions.
Lei Xiao stepped on the accelerator. Two minutes later, he saw a girl standing by the roadside with a black car parked not far from her.
Lei Xiao quickly drove the car up to her.
Huo Yao put her phone in her pocket. The moment Lei Xiao's car came to a stop, she walked forward and opened the backseat door. She swiftly climbed in and closed it.
"Follow the car in front," said Huo Yao without looking up.
Her voice was calm, but Lei Xiao could sense an oppressive feeling coming from her. Lei Xiao, who was in front of her, subconsciously shrank back.
Lei Xiao touched the tip of his nose and looked away. He nodded and saw that the black car in front of him had already started, so he stepped on the accelerator and quickly followed.
Huo Yao removed Huo Yulin's jacket after checking his pulse. His white protective suit was soaked in blood, and it was glaring to the eye.
One could almost imagine how badly the wound had ruptured.
Huo Yao's eyes darkened. She did not stop moving. She carefully lifted up her inner shirt and saw that the blood on the bandage around her chest had already dried into a dark red color.
She took a deep breath and quickly took out the silver needles that she always carried with her. Then, she steadily and accurately pricked a few acupuncture points on her chest.
After inserting the silver needles into the acupoints, he didn't remove them. Instead, he used his fingertips to press back and forth on several other acupoints on his chest to consolidate the remaining vitality.
At that moment, a small glass bottle slipped out of Huo Yulin's jacket pocket and fell under the car seat.
