"Zhizhi..."
Si Moshen called out to her weakly.
Jiang Zhirou's gaze fell on him. She pursed her lips tightly and stared at Si Moshen in silence, with an attitude of not giving up until she got an answer.
Seeing this, Uncle Shen was just about to speak up to ease Jiang Zhirou's mood when his phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
He glanced at the number on the screen, his eyes lighting up, and quickly answered the call.
It was the medical team from Country B.
Before Uncle Shen could say a word, the voice on the other end of the phone rang first.
"Steward Shen, I've got good news for you. A gentleman with the same blood type as Mr. Si was willing to donate blood the other day. How is Mr. Si's current condition? If possible, we hope you can come over as soon as possible. The earlier the surgery, the better the chance."
The ward was very quiet, and all three people present could hear the voice on the phone clearly.
Uncle Shen didn't have the time to keep this from Jiang Zhirou anymore. He quickly told the other end about Si Moshen's current condition.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the other party seemed even happier than before and urged them to go for the surgery as soon as possible.
After hanging up the phone, Uncle Shen glanced at Si Moshen. Knowing that there was no chance to keep this a secret anymore, he told Jiang Zhirou everything in detail.
After hearing this, she immediately stepped forward quickly and walked to the bedside, tightly holding Si Moshen's hand.
"Then let's set off now. I'll accompany you for the surgery."
Maybe because of his illness, Si Moshen's hand was extremely cold. Jiang Zhirou seemed to want to warm him up and tightened her grip on his hand again and again.
Si Moshen lifted his eyes. His dark, inky eyes stared at her for a long time before he finally slowly opened his mouth.
"We may have to stay there for a long time. Once we're there, you won't be able to practice shooting as often as you did in Yuelan. You may not get used to the food there either. Most importantly, your current investigation will have to be interrupted."
"None of these matters compared to you!"
Jiang Zhirou blurted out in a hurry.
She knew what Si Moshen meant.
From the moment she completely took over control of her own body, she had been eager to know why she was taken away all those years ago, and why she was sent to the orphanage and the black factory.
Those too many painful memories made her eager to find a reason, a vent.
If she chose to stop at this moment, it was very likely that even the last bit of clue would turn into nothing as time passed.
But if she had to choose between the events of the past and him now, she would definitely choose Si Moshen without hesitation.
The past couldn't be changed. Seizing the present was the most important thing.
"Zhizhi, have you thought it through?"
Si Moshen met her gaze and asked her again.
Jiang Zhirou nodded extremely seriously. "I've thought it through. I'm going with you!"
Seeing how determined she was, Si Moshen didn't refuse anymore. He nodded slightly. "Okay."
...
After receiving Uncle Shen's call, Ji Bai and Lu Wenxi had already arrived at the airport early, waiting for Chi Yu.
In the VIP lounge, Lu Wenxi watched the planes taking off and landing on the tarmac. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and then she turned to look at Ji Bai.
"I'm a bit scared."
Ji Bai knew what she meant. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, soothing her gently. "Don't be afraid. I'm here. Chi Yu will be fine."
In fact, even Ji Bai himself didn't have much confidence when he said this.
Based on what Uncle Shen had told him on the phone, Chi Yu's current condition was probably not good.
Lu Wenxi didn't say a word. She just leaned closer to Ji Bai, and her gaze fell on the tarmac outside the window again.
As time passed by, every second felt like an eternity. Ji Bai and Lu Wenxi were on tenterhooks.
Just then, Ji Bai finally received the call.
The two quickly got up and rushed to the location mentioned on the phone.
There were medical staff on the plane who had been observing Chi Yu's condition. After seeing Ji Bai, they told him in detail about Chi Yu's current situation. Only after they transferred the patient to Ji Bai did they leave.
After picking up Chi Yu, the two didn't dare to delay for a single moment on the way. They quickly drove towards the hospital.
All the way, Lu Wenxi was very worried. "Ji Bai, Brother Chi Yu will really be okay, right?"
Hearing this, Ji Bai tightened his grip on the steering wheel. His expression became much more solemn than before, and he didn't say a word.
At this moment, he couldn't promise Lu Wenxi anything, nor did he dare to.
Chi Yu was currently in a state of shock due to excessive blood loss.
Even Lu Wenxi, who didn't understand medical knowledge, could tell that Chi Yu's condition was critical, let alone Ji Bai, a professional doctor.
The car soon arrived at the hospital. As soon as the car drove into the hospital gate, the doctors calmly carried Chi Yu onto the stretcher.
"The patient has lost too much blood and is currently in a state of shock. Initiate the 'core anti - shock measures' and check and assess the organ damage..."
Ji Bai walked towards the operating room while giving instructions to the medical staff beside him.
Lu Wenxi always followed closely behind. It wasn't until the operating - room door closed and the red light came on that she stopped and paced anxiously back and forth outside the operating room.
She had been holding her phone in her hand. From the moment she picked up Chi Yu, she had been hesitating whether to contact Jiang Zhirou.
If something happened to Chi Yu and Jiang Zhirou didn't know about it, just thinking about it made Lu Wenxi feel unacceptable.
She didn't understand why two people who clearly loved each other always had to hide things from each other.
This kind of white lie was unacceptable to her.
A lie was a lie. In her opinion, there was no such thing as a good or bad lie.
After struggling for a long time, Lu Wenxi finally dialed Jiang Zhirou's phone number.
...
"Do you have anything you want to take for the surgery there? I'll write it down and go back to get it for you."
Jiang Zhirou looked at Si Moshen on the hospital bed. As she spoke, she reached into her pocket to get her phone so that she could write down what to take in the memo.
But after feeling around for a long time, she couldn't find her phone. Only then did she remember that the phone was still charging on the bedside table in the bedroom.
She had left in such a hurry last night that she didn't even have time to get her phone.
Seeing that she was looking for something, Uncle Shen said, "Miss Zhizhi, you don't need to take anything. Third Master has already given instructions over there. Everything is available. We don't need to go back to Yuelan. We can go directly to the airport from here."
Si Moshen immediately saw what she was doing. "Did you forget your phone?"
Jiang Zhirou stopped what she was doing and nodded. "It seems to be charging in the room."
As soon as she finished speaking, Si Moshen looked at Uncle Shen.
"Uncle Shen, ask someone to bring Zhizhi's phone here."
"No, no need." Jiang Zhirou quickly stopped him. She didn't want to waste too much time. The earlier they set off, the better.
"I don't need my phone when I'm with you. Let's just go."
