Afternoon.
Meihe City.
The City's Third People's Hospital.
The City's economy is not much better than Zhen Shui County, and the hospital is an old building built in the 80s and 90s. But it might have been refurbished, and it still looks good from the outside.
Dong Xuebing's ambulance drove into the hospital and stopped in front of a corridor. When the door opened, some hospital staff and leaders who had been waiting outside immediately surrounded them. Some were carrying stretchers, and some were asking about Dong Xuebing's condition. Dong Xuebing was not sure if the City Government had informed the hospital, but the moment the ambulance arrived, the entire Third People's Hospital was on standby. It's like they are rescuing a City Government Leader. They even opened a green lane to receive the ambulance.
"Make way!"
"Those who are not involved, please leave!"
"Quick! Send him to the emergency room! Quick! "
"Xiao Lu! Blood pressure and heartbeat! "
"690! Heartbeat 52!"
"Add fluids! Contact Chief Zhang, Chief Sun! Prepare for surgery! "
"I had called them! Chief Zhang is resting today! He is on the way! He will be here soon! "
The scene was commanded by a deputy director of the Third People's Hospital. Because just a few minutes before the ambulance arrived, the leader of the Sanitary Bureau called them and asked them to take over a patient who fell from the building. He also asked them to rescue the patient no matter what. The Sanitary Bureau was their department in charge, so the hospital would naturally pay attention to it. Moreover, listening to the leader's anxious tone, they also knew that this person might not be an ordinary person, or there might be something involved in it. In the end, the hospital put up such a battle formation.
Emergency room.
Three to four doctors in white coats pushed Dong Xuebing into the emergency room. Bang! The door slammed shut, and only the doctor who followed Dong Xuebing did not enter.
Yao Cui quickly asked. "Doctor, is his life in danger?"
The doctor looked at Yao Cui. "Are you his family member? His wife? "
Yao Cui immediately replied. "No. I am Mayor Dong's secretary."
At this time, a nurse walked over and passed a few forms to the doctor. The doctor looked at the forms and nodded. He looked at Chen Xiaomei. "Are you his family member?"
Chen Xiaomei replied. "I am not."
The doctor said, "Then inform his family as soon as possible. We can resuscitate him, but there are some operations and some matters that require his family's signature. Otherwise, it won't be easy for us to handle it." With that said, the doctor gave them a list — Critical Illness Notice!
Yao Cui's face paled. "Notice of critical illness??"
The doctor said, "The patient's condition is not very good. Contact his family as soon as possible."
Yao Cui's feet swayed, and she sat on a row of chairs next to her.
Chen Xiaomei's expression also changed, but she still comforted him, "Secretary Yao, don't worry. Generally, the hospital will issue a critical notice before any surgery. It's not a big deal. County Magistrate Dong is very lucky. He will definitely recover."
Yao Cui started to cry. She and Dong Xuebing are not just leaders and secretaries. They are university classmates and have known each other for years. Chen Xiaomei saw Dong Xuebing crying, and tears welled up in her eyes. She sat down and hugged Dong Xuebing gently. Chen Xiaomei wiped Dong Xuebing's tears and looked at the operating room door. She was worried that the doctor would suddenly come out and announce Dong Xuebing's death.
One minute …
Five minutes …
Ten minutes …
Dong Xuebing waited for a long time, and it felt like a few days.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came from the end of the corridor not far away. It was getting closer.
Finance Department Chief Wei Lin and two Finance Department leaders had arrived. Yan Yizhi was also following behind them. His forehead was covered in sweat, and it was obvious he had run over.
Yan Yizhi shouted from afar. "Old Chen."
Wei Lin walked over and asked. "Where is Mayor Dong?"
A doctor replied. "He is being resuscitated in the operating room."
Chen Xiaomei saw Wei Lin and stood up. "Why are you here?!"
Yao Cui also stopped crying. She looked at Wei Lin's face coldly and didn't say a word.
Wei Lin was not in the mood to talk to them. He also does not want anything to happen to Dong Xuebing, and he kept asking the doctor about Dong Xuebing's condition.
Finally, someone from the City Government arrived!
It was Deputy Mayor Zhao Xu and a few other City Government leaders!
"Mayor Zhao!"
"Mayor Zhao, you are here?"
Wei Lin walked over to greet Dong Xuebing.
However, Zhao Xu did not give him any face at all. He even pretended not to see him. He brushed past him and stood outside the resuscitation room to talk to a doctor.
A middle-aged man who came with Deputy Mayor Zhao seems to be Wei Lin's old friend. He looked at Wei Lin and sighed. "Old Wei."
Wei Lin also sighed and did not say anything. There was a bitter taste in his mouth.
He knows it's useless to say anything now and can only pray for Dong Xuebing's safety.
Since the deputy mayor was also here, the hospital naturally couldn't just say "we'll try our best." A doctor turned around and went into the emergency room. A minute later, he came out and said to Zhao Xu, "The patient's injuries are very serious, but he's in good health. He's not in the most critical condition. Director Zhang and Hospital Director Qian are operating on him now. Let's see if he can make it!"
Zhao Xu quickly asked. "What are the chances?"
The doctor paused for a second. "I'm not sure. Maybe 50%."
Only 50%? Zhao Xu took a deep breath. He is not in a good mood.
Chen Xiaomei, Yao Cui, and the rest heard what Dong Xuebing said, and their hearts are in their throats.
Yan Yizhi patted Chen Xiaomei's shoulder. "Mayor Dong will be fine. I had reported the situation to Mayor Jiang, and Party Secretary Meng and Mayor Jiang should arrive in the afternoon." If anything happens to Mayor Dong, the County Government will not let them off easily. The County Government will demand an explanation for pushing Mayor Dong down the stairs. But this is not the most important thing now.
No one said a word.
It's quiet outside the operating room.
Half an hour …
One hour …
At that moment, Deputy Mayor Zhao Xu received a call. His expression immediately became very serious. He told the person on the other side of the phone. It seemed that it was either the secretary or the mayor. "Yes … I understand … En, I'll report to you once there's any news, don't worry!"
After hanging up, the operating room's door opened from the inside.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh. The gazes of the thirteen or fourteen people in the corridor all turned in unison!
Two doctors wearing masks walked out. As they took off their masks, they took a bottle of mineral water from a nurse and gulped down a few mouthfuls.
"Doctor!"
"Doctor! How is it? "
"Did we save Mayor Dong?"
Everyone started asking questions at the same time!
That doctor took a deep breath and replied tiredly. "He is saved, but he is still in critical condition. We still need to observe him."
Zhao Xu is furious. "What do you mean by not sure? Don't talk nonsense! Just tell us if he is still in critical condition! "
The doctor laughed, and the Deputy Hospital Director interrupted. "Mayor Zhao, don't worry. The patient is out of danger."
Zhao Xu looks at the Deputy Hospital Director. "Will he be fine?"
The Deputy Hospital Director replied. "The patient's physique is good, and he managed to survive. Next, we will see when he wakes up and how he will recover …"
Yao Cui and Chen Xiaomei were relieved.
Yan Yizhi and Wei Lin wiped the sweat off their foreheads.
He is alive!
It's good that he is alive!
Chen Xiaomei suddenly asked. "Oh, will there be any side effects?"
The Deputy Hospital Director replied. "The patient has multiple fractures. Although there are no fatal injuries, if he does not recover well, there will be side effects. We can't guarantee anything."
Zhao Xu immediately said. "Arrange for the best ward here. Send someone to take care of him 24 hours a day!" After saying that, he walked away with his phone. He should be reporting to the City Government.
Suddenly, a voice came from the operating room.
"Director! Director! "
"Chief Zhang! He is awake! "
The two doctors and the Deputy Hospital Director were shocked. Dong Xuebing is awake? Damn! This is too fast! They thought he will be in a coma for one or two days. How come he is awake now?!
The doctors quickly put on their masks and entered the operating room.
Yao Cui, Chen Xiaomei, and the rest were waiting at the entrance of the operating room.
After a while, someone pushed out a sickbed, and Dong Xuebing was lying on it. His face was pale, and his eyes were weak.
"Xuebing!"
"Mayor Dong!"
"Mayor Dong! Are you alright? "
The doctor quickly reminded them. "The patient cannot speak now. Don't disturb him. Let's go to the ward first!"
Yao Cui's eyes turned red, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Chen Xiaomei's eyes also turned red when she saw Dong Xuebing.
Zhao Xu had returned from his phone call and walked over to Dong Xuebing. "Mayor Dong, rest well. Don't worry. You will recover soon."
Wei Lin also interrupted. "That's right. The doctors said you are no longer in danger."
Dong Xuebing ignored both of them and smiled at Yao Cui, Chen Xiaomei, and Yan Yizhi. Cui 'er and Sister Chen are both crying? Dong Xuebing felt warm and embarrassed as he had made them worry.
The bed was pushed away.
Only Zhao Xu and Wei Lin were left.
They did not know that Dong Xuebing had planned this and let Wei Lin fall into a trap. This was to create the impression that Wei Lin was the one who pushed Dong Xuebing down.
You all want to disgust me?!
Fine! It's my turn to disgust you all!
Dong Xuebing's temper had always been like this, and he is never afraid of challenges. Third floor? It will be painful to fall, but Dong Xuebing does not mind. He is used to this pain, and it is nothing compared to the bullets he suffered in Merica!
Dong Xuebing remembered Wei Lin and Zhao Xu's expressions and laughed in his heart.
Disgusting?
That's right!
