Chapter 415: When It Hurts, We Will Endure It Together
“Give me your clothes.” Lu Jin put his hands out to a guard.
The guard quickly took off his coat and tossed it to Lu Jin, who was still glaring at him.
“It can’t be that I still need to take something off?” The guard took off his inner shirt with trembling hands, but his hands stopped on his belt, his face about to cry.
“Can I not take it off?”
Lu Jin really wanted to scold him for his stupidity; how did he even perform his duties as a guard?
“Get lost, get lost now!” Lu Jin really wanted to kick the guard. Although not the worst, he certainly could not get anything done properly. Was he actually dumb enough to think that he needed to remove his pants, as if he had to expose himself? Disgusting.
Lu Yi took the clothes and covered Yan Huan’s head with it, not wanting her face to be seen by others. Soon afterwards, the ambulance arrived and Lu Yi picked up Yan Huan in his arms. Almost his entire body was covered with wounds. He had yet to recover from his previous injuries, but now he was badly injured again.
“Son, son,” Ye Shuyun heard the sirens of the ambulance and suddenly sat up.
“Where is Lu Yi, my Lu Yi? What about my daughter-in-law?” Ye Shuyun was really frightened. She had never seen so much blood, and all this blood came from Lu Yi and Yan Huan.
“Don’t worry, they are all right,” Lu Jin consoled Ye Shuyun. “Come on, let’s go to the hospital. Even if they were injured, it’s only external wounds.”
“But they bled so much…”
As soon as Ye Shuyun opened her mouth, she couldn’t help but cry again.
“External wounds would certainly bleed,” Lu Jin comforted her once again.
“Really?” Ye Shuyun still did not believe it, or perhaps she needed someone to give her a definite answer, an answer that everything would be all right.
“They will be fine for sure, they still have a lot of blood left to bleed. Hey, don’t pinch me…” Lu Jin pointed to his arm, his flesh was about to be nipped off.
“Can you be better with words?” Ye Shuyun was on the verge of breaking down.
But it was the truth. Lu Jin was a straightforward person; he did not know what he had said wrong. It was true that they still had a lot of blood left to bleed, bleeding this little amount would not hurt them.
As their voices grew farther and farther away, Old Master Lu’s trembling fingers began to relax, and he collapsed meekly onto a chair. Even the floor was a mess, the scent of blood lingered on the broken fragments of cups that were scattered all over the room. At that moment, Old Master Lu instantly felt old, like the vicissitudes of life from the past century have permeated his aged face.
Lu Yi and Yan Huan were sent to the hospital where He Yibin was. After all, Yan Huan was a public figure. No one must know who she was or how she was hurt, otherwise, things would get more complicated. To her, it would be like getting hurt for the second time.
Lu Yi’s wounds were still manageable, nothing too serious. The assault to his head had only left him with a gash. While many wounds on his body made him look like he was in critical pain, it was actually considered mild compared to the last time he got beaten by Old Master Lu.
Although he suffered many injuries, they were not severe. As for Yan Huan, she injured her hand only, but the wound was grave. Her entire palm was a mess of flesh and blood, even the white of her bones could be seen.
“Fortunately,” said He Yibin, who had dressed the wound for Yan Huan, “The bone is fine, otherwise, the hand might be permanently incapacitated.”
“Maybe you don’t know, in the film industry, she is considered to be perfection, impeccable in every aspect. And if her hand was ruined, she would be no famous Venus de Milo, but rather the fall of the generation’s best actress.”
When He Yibin finished, Lu Yi just held Yan Huan’s other hand and said nothing. At this point, even though he suffered more wounds than Yan Huan, he couldn’t care less about himself. He was only concerned about whether Yan Huan would be okay, whether her hand would recover.
As He Yibin said, what he feared most was if Yan Huan’s hand took a turn for the worse. She was healthy and only 23 years old, if she were to lose one hand, what would she do in the future?
Yan Huan fell asleep, maybe she was really tired. Her stressed eyebrows were never once relaxed. Perhaps it was because of the pain. Lu Yi carefully placed her wounded hand under the blanket. He himself lay down beside her, holding her other hand tightly.
In this moment, when everything hurts, they would endure it together.
If it bleeds, they would also bleed together.
He Yibin opened the door of the ward, but when he saw the two people inside, he closed it again.
Better let them have a good rest.
He closed the door of the ward and it was quiet outside. This was a special ward in the hospital. Whether doctors or nurses, the first thing they must do is to keep their mouths shut. No matter what happened or who were the people in this ward, it would be treated with utmost confidentiality.
A row of soft cushioned chairs were placed outside, in the clean and spacious hallway. It was different from the ones at the lower floors of the hospital. Of course, the cost here would be expensive, and those who stayed in this ward would obviously be able to afford the high cost.
“Uncle Lu, Aunt Ye.”
He Yibin hurried over, knowing that they were waiting anxiously.
“How are they? Are they all right?” Ye Shuyun stood up, her palms were sweaty from all the worrying. She was afraid that Lu Yi and Yan Huan would be in danger again.
“If Lu Yi knew that you asked about him, he would be very happy.” He Yibin smiled, his expression revealed that Lu Yi was going to be just fine. He knew that Lu Yi’s greatest wish was for his family to acknowledge Yan Huan as part of their family. What happened last time made Lu Yi feel ashamed towards Yan Huan, even until now.
And he felt that the same was true of Ye Shuyun and her husband. Hence, they now regarded Yan Huan as a close relative, as if she was their child. Maybe not as much as how they cared for Lu Yi, but she already had a place in their hearts, right?
Ye Shuyun held Lu Jin’s hand. “Lu Yi is my son, Yan Huan is my daughter-in-law. She is a part of our family. Whoever our son cherishes, we too will cherish them as much as he does.”
He Yibin glanced at the door of the closed ward and said, “Don’t worry, they’re all right. However, they are exhausted. Their injuries on their bodies were mostly external wounds, so they would be fine. Although Lu Yi’s body would be left with more new scars, but as a man, it doesn’t matter. Let them sleep well for now.”
There was only exhaustion after surviving the disaster.
Ye Shuyun and Lu Jin looked at each other as they both sighed in relief. That’s right, wouldn’t anyone be relieved? They were really terrified this time.
“I won’t ever go to your father’s place again.”
