When Hua Xiaotong rushed to the door of the ward, he was stopped by two guards. Originally, they had seen Hua Xiaotong yesterday, but they just ran all the way. At this time, Hua Xiaotong was disheveled.
Hair, no image at all.
"Get out of the way, my friend is inside!" Hua Xiaotong was eager to see Meng Yao and got angry at the two people, but she forgot that they were abroad.
"Hey, Brother Jun, she is my girlfriend and the patient's friend!" Liu Zimo entered the elevator late just now and rushed over by climbing the stairs. When he saw Hua Xiaotong arguing with the people from Hongmen, he said quickly.
"Is it Miss Hua? I'm sorry, I didn't recognize her just now." A Jun, the doorkeeper, took a careful look at Hua Xiaotong and stepped aside to open the door to the ward.
"Can't you recognize me?"
Hua Xiaotong pushed the door open and took out the makeup box in her bag. She opened it and took a look at her face. In the mirror, she saw that her face was covered with messy hair, and the windbreaker she was wearing was actually inside out.
.
‘!”
The face in the mirror made Hua Xiaotong scream. Fortunately, she still remembered that she was in Meng Yao's ward and covered her mouth with her hands in time.
"Tongtong, are you here?" Mengyao, who was lying on the hospital bed, had already woken up when the door was pushed open. When she heard Hua Xiaotong's voice, she couldn't help but turn her head.
Although she had more than ten hours of surgery yesterday, firstly, the bullet did not damage her heart, and secondly, Qin Feng used Zhenqi to massage her acupoints. She had a good rest yesterday, so she also has some traces on her face now.
A bit bloody.
"Yao Yao, are you okay?"
Hearing Meng Yao's greeting, Hua Xiaotong no longer cared about her appearance. She hurriedly walked to the hospital bed and grabbed Meng Yao's hand, her tears falling straight down.
Although the older generations of the Hua family also fought in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Hua Xiaotong's generation, especially girls, had never seen such a scene before. What happened yesterday really frightened her.
"I'm fine. I'm lucky. That bullet missed." Meng Yao glanced to the left and right. Except for Liu Zimo who came in behind, Hua Xiaotong was the only one left in the room. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"Yao Yao, what's wrong? You still don't look right." Hua Xiaotong, who was staring closely at Meng Yao, was a little panicked. She turned around and said to Liu Zimo: "Hurry up and call the doctor. See what's wrong with Yaoyao?"
"I'm really fine..."
Just as Meng Yao was about to speak, the door to the ward was pushed open again. The doctor who operated on Hua Xiaotong yesterday walked in with two nurses.
"You two go out for a moment, we need to examine the patient..."
The doctor took a look at Hua Xiaotong and Liu Zimo and ordered them to be kicked out. In fact, according to regulations, visits were not allowed at this time. However, the doctor who was doing the surgery was an old acquaintance of Bai Zhentian, so he made some conveniences.
"Doctor, how is my friend? Will there be any sequelae?" Hua Xiaotong grabbed the doctor and asked.
"The operation was very successful..."
The doctor thought for a moment and said: "The key is to see how the patient recovers. If the patient recovers well, he can be cured without leaving any sequelae.
Miss, please go out now, please don’t delay my work..."
"That's good, doctor, I still want to ask..."
"Xiaotong, if you have any questions, I'll ask you later. The doctor needs to change the dressing, so let's go out first!"
Hua Xiaotong still wanted to ask more questions, but was pulled out by Liu Zimo. These foreign doctors didn't know Miss Hua. If she continued to be rude, she would definitely be punished.
"Liu Zimo, you were the one who brought me back to the hotel yesterday, why do you care about me now?"
After leaving the door of the ward, Hua Xiaotong lost his temper, "I'm no one like you, why do you care about me? If it weren't for you, I would have seen Yaoyao yesterday."
As Meng Yao's best friend, he was not by her side when Meng Yao needed care the most. This made Hua Xiaotong feel very uncomfortable. Coupled with the fright she received yesterday, it completely exploded in an instant.
"Silly girl, you can't help the doctor here!"
Seeing Hua Xiaotong's face bursting with tears, Liu Zimo reached out and took her into his arms and said: "Cry if you want to. When you're done crying, there are still serious things to do..."
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault!" Hua Xiaotong's little fist kept hitting Liu Zimo's chest, and it took a while before he vented the emotions in his heart.
"Zimo, you...what serious thing are you talking about?"
After crying a lot, Hua Xiaotong's mood improved a lot, and she asked: "Is it that Yaoyao's hospitalization fees and handling fees haven't been paid yet? Go and pay them quickly..."
"
"Where are you?"
After hearing Hua Xiaotong's words, Liu Zimo said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "You don't need to worry about these things. Uncle Bai made arrangements for them yesterday. This is not what I'm talking about."
"What's that?"
Hua Xiaotong glanced at the direction of the ward. The door of the ward had not yet been opened. She said a little uneasily: "Is it something about the school? It'll be fine if I get there in a few days."
"Miss, you have guessed so much, why didn't you think of informing Meng Yao's family?" Liu Zimo did not forget Qin Feng's instructions before leaving.
"Ah? I...I really forgot!" After hearing Liu Zimo's words, Hua Xiaotong showed a trace of panic on her face. After hurriedly taking out her mobile phone, her eyes widened.
In fact, Hua Xiaotong has not forgotten that when she didn't know whether Meng Yao was alive or dead yesterday, she didn't dare to call Meng Yao's home.
This is because Hua Xiaotong clearly knows Meng Yao's status in the Meng family. If something happens to Meng Yao, it may even turn into a political incident, and perhaps even the elders in her family will be implicated.
"Huh? Why don't you fight? In this situation, it's best for Meng Yao to return to China for treatment..." Seeing Hua Xiaotong's hesitation, Liu Zimo urged.
"Okay, I'll fight right away!"
Hua Xiaotong nodded. She knew that this matter could not be hidden. Meng Yao should have passed the dangerous period now. It was better to call sooner than later.
On the other side of the world, it was around eight o'clock in the evening. In a quiet courtyard in the capital city, a large family had just had dinner and were sitting happily chatting in the courtyard.
"Meng Lin, what's the matter with you? Are you pouring water for grandpa and answering the phone?"
Father Meng, who was sitting next to the old man in the courtyard, glanced at his son unhappily. There were very few opportunities for old and young people like them to gather together. It was indeed immature for his son to do this.
Meng Lin smiled and pressed the answer button and said casually: "Dad, it's the United States calling, maybe Yaoyao..."
"Is it the girl? Bring it over and let grandpa say a few words to the girl..."
Although Mr. Meng, who is sitting at the top of the table, is over eighty years old, he is in good spirits. He sits there with a straight posture and a straight back.
"What? What did you say?!"
Just when the old man reached out to ask for the phone, Meng Lin's voice suddenly rose an octave, which made the Meng family's children who were sitting in various places in the yard chatting look over.
"What's wrong? Meng Lin, what are you yelling about? Why are you talking to your sister?" Meng's father frowned. His son has always been steady, so why are he so impetuous today?
"Dad, grandpa, it's okay, nothing is wrong!"
Meng Lin shook his head, but the purple clay pot he was holding in his right hand, which he was about to pour tea to some elders, made a "bang" sound and was crushed by him.
Meng Lin knew that in this family, besides himself, the old man loved his sister the most. What might happen if his grandfather knew that Meng Yao had been injured by a gunshot?
"What happened? Tell me."
Mr. Meng glanced at his grandson calmly. He was very satisfied with Meng Lin. If nothing unexpected happened, Meng Lin would be the leader of the third generation of the Meng family in the future.
"Grandpa, it's okay. It's just Yaoyao... Yaoyao is a little sick!" Meng Lin didn't dare to meet his grandfather's eyes because he was afraid that the old man would notice the anger in his eyes.
"Meng Lin, do you still want to lie in front of me?" Mr. Meng's voice suddenly rose, "You bastard, what happened to Yaoyao? Hurry up and tell me!"
Mr. Meng spent his life in the military. Although he later turned to politics, when he got angry at this moment, the momentum was still not something Meng Lin could withstand, and his legs suddenly felt a little weak.
"Grandpa, Yaoyao was shot in the United States and was just out of danger..."
Meng Lin was afraid that something might happen to his grandfather who loved his sister the most, so he quickly said: "Grandpa, don't worry, Yaoyao is out of danger, she is fine..."
"How could such a thing happen? Yaoyao, I...my poor child!"
Regardless of whether they are dignitaries or common people, parents have the same love for their children. After hearing what her son said, it was Meng's mother who was the first to cry.
As for the other Meng family disciples, they were also whispering to each other, with anger on their faces.
Meng Yao is a girl, and her future development does not occupy family resources, so everyone treats her like a little princess and is worried about Meng Yao.
"From the second brother's house, help your sister-in-law to the front!"
Surprisingly, Mr. Meng, who was furious just now, calmed down and said: "Boss, you guys come in with me, Meng Lin, you come in too..."
Last year, the Meng family held a family meeting, and Meng Lin was already eligible to participate. When Meng Lin followed several elders into the house, there were many envious looks from his cousins.
However, no one knew what the elders of the Meng family were talking about in the room. More than an hour later, the old man came out and personally issued a silence order, so that no one could spread what happened today.
On the third day after receiving Hua Xiaotong's call, an expert team composed of Beijing's 301 Hospital took a special plane to fly to the United States in the name of academic exchange.
At the same time, relevant departments in the United States also received a note from China, which severely condemned the shooting incident of a Chinese student in the United States and urged them to find out the cause of the incident and catch the murderer as soon as possible.
However, none of this has been reported to the media. Everything is under control within a certain range. However, the Meng family members who work in various departments in the capital rarely smile on their faces during this period.
