A Billion Dollar Exchange-Chapter 278: To the hospital!

Liu Wei blanked out for a whole five seconds.

''What did you just say? ''

His heart was beating against his chest frantically and he was finding it hard to breathe.

''She… she's bleeding and I think she just fainted. ''

''TO THE HOSPITAL!! TO THE HOSPITAL IMMEDIATELY!! ''

''Yes sir! …''

Qianru disconnected the call and Liu Wei called back immediately.

''ARE YOU MAD? WHO SAID YOU SHOULD CUT THE CALL?!! ''

'I'm sorry sir!…'' Qianru trembled. She knew Liu Wei was mad at that moment and she was about to be the one he'll transfer his aggression on.

''I'll go call someone to help carry her! ''

''WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME? HURRY! IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO LILING, I SWEAR, YOU WON'T FIND IT FUNNY!!''

Qianru dropped the phone and raced back downstairs. She banged on Kim's door and without waiting for her to answer, she pushed it open.

''What's wrong? ''

''Hurry!, get up. Liling is sick and You ng Master Liu Wei is mad! ''

''Liling? When? How? ''

''I don't really have the time to answer questions now! ''

Kim pushed herself off the bed and raced after Qianru. Upstairs, Liling was still lying quiet on the bed.

As they lifted her off the bed, Kim gasped when she saw the blood stain on the bed.

''I've seen this before…''

She said before she could stop herself.? Her elder sister once lost a baby and it was almost the same situation as now.

''It seems Liling is pregnant…''

''WHAT!!! ''

Came the scream from the phone just beside Kim, she nearly jolted from her spot. She did not know that Liu Wei was on the phone all along. Her hand immediately covered her mouth.

''What did you just day? ''

Liu Wei was already on the way to the airport. He did not care about anything else. He did not even remember to tell Wang Feng to take care of things; the only thing on his mind at that moment was Liling.

''I'm sorry sir. It was a slip.''

''DO I LOOK LIKE I'M JOKING?!!? ''

''My elder sister … she drinks a lot and not knowing she was pregnant, she took a lot of alcohol and miscarried. It was just the same as this. But that's not the case here; Liling might be on her period…''

''ARE YOU STILL TALKING TO ME??! WILL YOU GET MY WOMAN TO THE HOSPITAL?? IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO LILING YOU ARE ALL DEAD!! ''

In the next twenty minutes, Liling was being pushed into the emergency unit. Kim and Qianru stood outside looking worried.

''Hope she doesn't lose the baby…''

Kim said, worry etched all over her face.

A few minutes later, a lady came running towards them.

''Where is she? Liling? Where is she? ''

Kim recognized her immediately as Liling's friend. ''She's not yet out. We don't know anything yet, ''

Xin Yong asked, her eyes widening;

''What if she's pregnant? '',

Kim said, and Xin Yong's lips fell open.

''What? Pregnant, she can't be… wait; no, she can't be…'' Xin Ying's hands covered her mouth as she thought about it.

Just that moment, a female doctor pushed open the glass doors and walked towards them.

''Are you here for Miss Liling? ''

''Yes! ''

The three of them answered in chorus.

''The patient was three weeks pregnant before now, but… after the intake of bromelain, which leads to the contraction of the uterus and softens the cervix, the fetus was harmed. Again, Aloe Vera and Caffeine isn't safe to be taken during pregnancy, it seems the patient didn't know that? ''

They were speechless; mouths opened, staring at the doctor.

Just at that moment, someone came to join them. Xin Yong turned to look at the person, and their eyes met briefly, she quickly looked away.

''Where is she? ''

He asked no-one in particular.

''The patient needs an urgent surgery and a relative has to sign, who amongst you is related to her? ''

''Me! '' Xin Yong answered without thinking. Liling had no parents and Liu Wei wasn't around; she was the closest relative as of now.

''And you are? ''

''… Her sister…''

''Okay, I'll get the document immediately. ''

After signing, the four of them waited patiently outside. Xin Yong didn't know that Liu Wei would call Jin Yue after calling her. But it was expected, after all, he was a friend.

Kim and Qianru sat together, and Jin Yue stood beside Xin Yong who was sitting, although not actually 'beside' because it was about 15 meters away. Although they were not too close, Xin Yong could feel his presence. She didn't want to but she felt him glancing at her, and it was really uncomfortable.

There were more important things to worry about, Liling just lost a baby, and she of all people knew how it could shatter a person.

After about an hour, the glass door pushed open again, and Liling was pushed out and taken to a ward.

The doctor, who had addressed them earlier, walked up to them again. f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋ｎoѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺

''The surgery was successful, and the patient is stable now. She'll wake up in no time. No-one is allowed into her ward yet, the nurse will tell you when it is possible. ''

After a brief other talk, the doctor walked away. Kim and Qianru opted to go back home, since Jin Yue and Xin Yong were there.

After they left, the remaining two stood by the glass window staring at Liling, who was still fast asleep.

Many things were on Xin Yong's mind.

How was she going to take it when she woke up? She was going to be shattered! She knew how that felt.

Jin Yue wanted to speak but he did not know what to say. They had been standing, staring at the ward for over twenty minutes, no-one speaking to each other.

That was the closest they've been since they separated. Although he wanted to talk to her, he knew that once he opened his mouth, she would walk away, so he remained quiet, cherishing the moment.
