Chapter 419: Don’t Want Him to Die

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the next few days, Murong Qiao seemed to have calculated the time perfectly.

Every time, she would pick the time when Nan Jin was asleep to come over. Then, when he was about to wake up, she would quietly leave, as if no one had come.

“Young lady, you’re really strange.” The nurse from before even said a few words after noticing her actions.

In any case, Murong Qiao didn’t care about that.

When she deliberately weakened her presence, neither Nan Jin nor Nan Hao found any traces of her.

As for the things in the ward, Nan Jin attributed them to Nan Hao and didn’t think of his Little Sister at all.

However, such a calm appearance would still be broken by Nan Jin’s sudden illness.

It happened so suddenly.

Murong Qiao was originally accompanying Nan Jin. One second ago, she was typing and thinking about a novel. In the next second, her thoughts were interrupted by the sudden alarm of an instrument and the nurse who suddenly barged into the ward.

“The patient suddenly fell unconscious and his heart rate increased—” The nurse was reporting the situation urgently.

Murong Qiao subconsciously stood up and made way for the nurse who walked in a few seconds later so that they could push Nan Jin away, but her mind was still blank.

The nurse frowned deeply. “I’ll go to the operating theater immediately.”

It was obvious that the situation was urgent and she couldn’t be bothered to speak for a moment. Seeing that there was no problem after he was pushed away, the nurse immediately turned around and jogged towards the other end of the corridor.

Murong Qiao followed without thinking. Then, she saw the nurse talking to a person who looked like a surgeon.

“…The patient’s condition isn’t too optimistic.”

“Understood. I’ve just informed his family.”

“Let them sign the surgery form as soon as possible. This situation won’t stabilize for long.”

“Yes, I understand…”

Many professional terms were automatically filtered out, but Murong Qiao could tell that the situation was urgent.

She stood at the side and looked at the nurse’s serious expression, then at the closed operating theater. It was rare for her to feel nervous.

She clearly didn’t feel anything before, but at this moment, for the first time, Murong Qiao felt that time passed so slowly.

The nurse stood anxiously at the entrance of the operating theater, holding what looked like a list in her hand. From time to time, she would look around. It was obvious that she was waiting for someone.

After about five minutes, the nurse felt that time seemed to have stopped. After informing the family, no one came over for a long time.

“What should we do…” The nurse was also anxious.

She paced back and forth, making people suspect that she could even make herself faint from giddiness. She walked left and right. Suddenly, she glanced to the side and her eyes lit up when she saw Murong Qiao standing at the corner. It was as if she had seen her savior.

“Little Miss! What’s your relationship with the patient? Can you sign it if you’re a friend? The surgery is quite urgent.” The nurse leaned in front of Murong Qiao and asked.

“I don’t know what’s going on with his family, but no one came for a long time. The surgery can’t wait that long…”

While the nurse was still trying to explain to Murong Qiao, Murong Qiao had already signed her name on the surgical consent form without hesitation.

“Let’s perform the surgery as soon as possible. I’ll pay the fees.” She turned around and left.

The nurse probably didn’t expect Murong Qiao to be so decisive. Fortunately, she reacted quickly. After agreeing, she went straight to the operating theater.

Murong Qiao knew very well that she only hated Nan Jin. It was far from the point where she could watch Nan Jin die like this.

The emergency was right in front of her. To be honest, Murong Qiao couldn’t leave him in the lurch.

“Hello, I’m here to pay the surgery fee.” Murong Qiao went to the front desk.

She handed the card to the front desk staff and her thoughts couldn’t help but drift to Nan Jin.

… She still hoped that it was just a false alarm. It would be best if nothing happened.

The front desk staff returned the card to her. “Alright, this is the receipt. Keep it well.”

Murong Qiao nodded and was about to return to the operating theater to wait for the results when he turned around and saw Nan Hao rushing into the elevator.

She stopped in her tracks. After hesitating for a moment, she chose the opposite direction of the original route.

…It was better not to meet Nan Hao.

She was afraid that Nan Hao or others would pester her again.

Murong Qiao narrowed her eyes and hid among the crowd, reducing the risk of being discovered by Nan Hao as she walked towards the entrance of the hospital.

She helped Nan Jin because she didn’t want to leave him in the lurch. She didn’t have any other intentions.

The crowd served as the best cover, successfully preventing Nan Hao from discovering Murong Qiao’s existence.

Or rather, his mind was filled with thoughts of what was going on with his Second Brother. At this moment, he couldn’t be bothered to look at anything else. After leaving the elevator, he rushed to the operating theater.

“Sorry I’m late—” Nan Hao looked vexed.

He had just finished school and was going to his part-time job. When he heard the news halfway through the subway, he couldn’t sit still. He got off the train at the next stop and called for a taxi.

But even so, it was still too slow. Coupled with the traffic jam, half an hour had already passed by the time Nan Hao arrived at the entrance of the hospital’s operating theater.

The nurse happened to come out of the operating theater. “It’s fine, it’s fine.

The surgery has already begun.”

She was about to go out and hand over the procedures to the hospital to confirm if the surgery had been paid for. Looking at her relaxed expression, the surgery should be fine for the time being.

“It’s started?” Nan Hao was surprised.

Fortunately, his attention quickly shifted to Nan Jin. “Then what’s the situation now? My brother—”

“He suddenly fainted…” When the nurse saw this, she briefly explained what had happened so that Nan Hao could roughly understand.

It was mainly targeted at the patient’s situation. Seeing how concerned Nan Hao was, the nurse didn’t mention Murong Qiao.

“In any case, don’t worry. When the surgery is over, take a look at your Big Brother. There shouldn’t be any major problems.” The nurse waved her hand.

The nurse was shocked when Nan Jin fainted just now. Fortunately, Murong Qiao decided to authorize the surgery decisively at that time. Otherwise, the situation would definitely be much worse now.

Nan Hao nodded wildly. “Alright, thank you.”

If Nan Jin was fine, it was better than anything else.

After knowing that it was nothing serious and that Nan Jin was in a good state, Nan Hao relaxed.

He didn’t dare to delay the nurse. After saying a few words, he sat down on the bench at the entrance of the operating theater. He was even secretly blaming himself for working part-time.

Today, he was saved in time, but if he was delayed by something or came a little later…

Nan Hao didn’t want to think about the consequences.

Fortunately, the surgery was smooth and nothing serious happened. Nan Jin’s condition gradually stabilized under the doctor’s superb skills.

When he returned to the ward, it was already late at night.

“…Why didn’t you wake me up when you came?” Nan Jin slowly woke up.

He seemed to be still in a daze, as if he thought that he had slept for a long time.

Nan Hao nodded sleepily. When he heard Nan Jin’s voice, he instantly woke up.

He looked at Nan Jin. “Your anesthetic hasn’t worn off yet. I couldn’t wake you up.”

Nan Hao’s casual words stunned Nan Jin. He moved his body and realized that something was wrong with his senses.

Then, Nan Jin heard Nan Hao talk about his last-minute surgery.

“I probably slept too deeply, but I didn’t feel anything.” Nan Jin expressed his understanding.

He was still wondering why he had slept for so long and couldn’t sleep well. His body felt uncomfortable.

“Who asked you not to take your medicine properly?” Nan Hao said to him.

In the beginning, the doctor prescribed several kinds of medicine for Nan Jin to take on time every day. In the end, Nan Hao actually realized that Nan Jin had thrown the medicine into the trash can..
