YM778.TV Chapter 327 - State of Shock
However, tonight this private ward wasn’t as peaceful as it used to be. There was a strange pressure in the air and every person seemed to be on the edge.
Inside one of those private OR rooms laid Xu Mey with IV drips attached to her veins. Her face looked pale and sallow. She looked frail as if lost her vitality in a few hours. A team of doctors had been trying to stop the bleeding.
While the private ward could make a person suffocate due to pressure, the condition outside the OR was even worse.
"Uncle Chen, I can’t let you operate on him," Lin Shen tried to persuade Zhu Chen to let go of his stubbornness but the latter wasn’t listening. How could he? He found his son after decades and now he was lying inside fighting a battle of life and death.
"Shen, I’m a renowned surgeon. I can surely save my son." Zhu Chen’s eyes were red at this point and his voice was heavy with emotions. Lin Shen could understand his condition but he couldn’t do anything about that for now.
"Uncle Chen, you are a cardiothoracic surgeon. Jie has a head injury. Apart from that, your emotions are too unstable for me to let you operate on anyone much less on him. Try to understand, I have to give a reply to my Xiao Mey and believe me, I’ll do my best to save him." Lin Shen’s eyes were stinging with tears as well but he couldn’t show his weakness. At least for Xu Mey’s sake, he had to do everything he could.
"Dr. Shen, I’ll assist you." Yang Ziyi who had heard about Jie’s accident ran to accompany Lin Shen.
Lin Shen could see her swollen eyes as if she had been crying for a while but didn’t pay attention since he didn’t have much time to waste. He patted Zhu Chen’s shoulder and said, "Uncle, you should have some faith in me." He turned and left to enter the OR.
By this time everyone had gathered outside the OR with the same look of anxiety on their faces. While Zhu Chen was trying to calm He Susu who was crying hysterically in his arms, he heard Fan Bingbing’s voice, "Did anyone check on Little Mey?"
As their attention turned, everyone turned to see a doctor coming out of Xu Mey’s room.
"Doctor, how’s my daughter?" Xu Cheng’s condition wasn’t any better when he was informed about the accident which involved both his daughter and son-in-law.
"The patient just had a Hypovolaemic shock." As his words left his mouth, Zhu Chen straightened up and turned towards him.
"What do you mean? Was there some kind of bleeding?" He questioned trying to maintain his professional attitude. After all, he knew very well that Hypovolaemic shock occurs when there was not enough blood volume in the body. As the causes are mostly internal or external injury. He completely dropped the idea of Xu Mey being dehydrated from his mind.
Sensing Zhu Chen’s knowing attitude, the doctor shifted his gaze to him and explained, "The patient had a deep wound on her thigh might be from something sharp. It ruptured an artery and the blood loss... Sigh!" He shook his head lightly before adding, "Apart from that the patient had been dehydrated. She might have been vomiting all day as well, given her condition."
"Is the condition severe? Does she need a blood transfusion?" Zhu Chen asked while Xu Cheng felt his hands becoming clammy while he was trembling badly.
"Yes, she needs blood. Urgently. Otherwise, it might get difficult to save both mother and child." The doctor’s words caused a wave of head turns.
"What did you say?" Fan Bingbing managed to muster up some courage to ask but couldn’t continue.
"Do you... Do you mean our Xiao Mey is pregnant?" Li Man added.
"Yes. The patient is six weeks pregnant. Didn’t you know?" The doctor was surprised to see their reactions.
They heard some tapping sound as three people came running down the hallway and panted as they got near. "Take my blood. All you need. Save my little Mey." Wu Wang offered immediately.
"Are you O negative?" The doctor asked.
Wu Wang shared a look with both He Jian and Li Qiao before groaning. Their blood type didn’t match at all.
"Take mine. I’m O negative." This small voice brought a glitter of hope in everyone as they turned to see Xiamu standing at the side with his clothes covered in blood.
"Really? Please, save my daughter. I’ll be in debt to you for the rest of my life." Xu Cheng broke down as he held Xiamu’s hands. He was already grateful since if it wasn’t for Xiamu, Xu Mey and Jie both might have lost their lives before getting to the hospital.
Yes, it was indeed Xiamu who called for the ambulance and brought them to the hospital. It had become his habit to come to Xu Corporation just to watch his sister leaving. He was there for the same purpose again when the accident occurred right before his eyes. His nerves were still not calm but he knew he had to save his sister. At any cost!
He nodded to reassure Xu Cheng before following the doctor for the transfusion process.
Xu Mey’s psychological shock was so serious that it scared everyone outside even more. She was already pregnant and with that, she even saw the whole accident right before her eyes. Their anxiety and nervousness were understandable since even a little mistake could take her life.
Everyone deals with their fear in their own ways. Xu Mey’s biggest fear was losing her Ah-Jie and when she actually felt like she lost him; she chose the only way she could think to deal with it. She shut her mind off.
