“What’s wrong? What happened?” a passerby stopped Sister Zhu and asked.
“Over there! Someone fell into the lake! On the shore! Pregnant woman! Save her! Quickly save her!” Sister Zhu gestured as she spoke. It had all happened too suddenly and she had run too fast. She could not even speak properly by now and could only pick the important points to say.
When everyone heard this, they all ran to the lake to help. Soon, the ambulance arrived at the shore. Xia Fang jumped down and rushed to Qiao Mei’s side and looked at her nervously. She did a simple check to see if there were any external injuries.
“How are you? Are you feeling alright?” Xia Fang asked nervously.
“I… I still feel alright…” Qiao Mei said weakly.
“Stretcher! Stretcher! Someone get the stretcher!” Xia Fang shouted towards the ambulance.
The people inside used a stretcher and emergency supplies to move Qiao Mei into the ambulance and they quickly set off for the hospital.
Xia Fang held Qiao Mei’s hand tightly and said, “Everyone in this vehicle is our own people. How are you? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Do you want me to do a simple checkup for you now? Are you cold? Do you need to change out of your clothes?”
Qiao Mei did not know which question to reply after listening to Xia Fang’s long list. She laughed and held Xia Fang’s hand tightly as she said, “I’m fine, Aunt. There’s no need for me to change my clothes now. It won’t make much difference. What if He Mei has spies at the hospital? I’m feeling very well. Don’t worry.”
“Then all this blood is fake, right? Are you sure?” Xia Fang asked worriedly.
Qiao Mei nodded. She did not feel any pain at all and her body felt very warm under the protection of the bangle. If there was anything uncomfortable, it was probably the fact that all her clothes were stuck to her body.
“It’s fake. Aunt, don’t worry. We’ll reach the hospital soon. You’ll know when you do more detailed checks,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
“After we get out of the vehicle, close your eyes and don’t speak. Don’t make a sound no matter who calls out to you. Don’t worry, I’ll be around. Your Uncle Liu Yang is already waiting in the operating theater,” Xia Fang whispered.
Qiao Mei understood what she meant. She closed her eyes quietly and waited to get off the vehicle.
The lake in the park was located not too far from the hospital and they soon arrived at the entrance of the emergency department. Everyone hurriedly carried Qiao Mei down and placed her on the hospital bed. It did not take long for them to enter Operating Theater 2.
This operating theater was usually used by people in emergency situations. Ordinary surgeries were usually carried out in Operating Theater 1 and Operating Theater 3. Only if there were simply too many people and the queue was too long could they use Operating Theater 2 and Operating Theater 4 for normal surgeries.
After entering the operating theater, everyone could finally relax.
“Mei Mei, you can get up now. We’re all on the same side,” Liu Yang said with a laugh.
Qiao Mei opened her eyes tentatively. She not only saw Liu Yang, but also two young people in front of her. They should be the doctors who had pushed her in.
“Hello, I’m his son. My name is Liu Hua and this is my younger sister, Liu Wen. She’s quiet and doesn’t like to talk much,” Liu Hua said as he took off his mask.
The girl beside him also took off her mask. If not for the fact that they were of different genders, the two of them would have looked exactly the same. It was just that Liu Hua looked much more masculine, while Liu Wen was more gentle and reserved.
“Hello, I’m… you should call me sister-in-law. I’m Xia Zhe’s wife,” Qiao Mei said embarrassedly.
The two people in front of her were obviously much older than her. She was simply taking advantage of Xia Zhe’s seniority in the family if she made them call her sister-in-law.
“Yo, yo, yo, little girl, you still know how to be shy. Your aunt has prepared a set of clothes for you. Hurry up and change first. We’ll go out now.” Liu Yang and Liu Hua excused themselves to go out to check out the situation first and also to give her some space.
With Liu Wen’s help, Xia Fang helped Qiao Mei change her clothes and did a checkup at the same time, cleaning up the fake blood plasma on Qiao Mei. She only felt relieved after confirming that all the various indicators showed normal readings.
“Just this one time. I definitely won’t let you wreck havoc a second time. I almost fainted from fright when I saw you lying on the ground,” Xia Fang said as she held her chest.
“Aunt, I also won’t dare to do it again. Is there anything wrong with me when you check on me just now?” Qiao Mei asked nervously. She was actually very afraid that she would get an infection or that the children would get hurt.
Xia Fang looked at Qiao Mei and frowned. She raised her head to look at the equipment and sighed silently. Actually, there was nothing wrong with Qiao Mei. She just wanted Qiao Mei to know that she could not treat the children’s lives and her own life so lightly.
“Aunt… so is… is everything alright!” Qiao Mei sat up nervously and looked at Xia Fang.
“Lie down properly. I’ll take a look at the fetuses again,” Xia Fang said seriously.
