Xie Yi was startled. She smiled and said, “Ms. Ye, you’re taking it too seriously. As a doctor, it’s my duty to heal the wounded.”
“Dr. Xie, you’re a master who never asks for repayment when helping others out, but I can’t just let you walk away with nothing after all you’ve done…”
While Ye Tianxin and Xie Yi were talking, Xie Xuning, who was asleep on the brick bed, muttered, “Linlang...”
Both of them suddenly heard the words “Linlang”.
“Dad…”
Ye Tianxin quickly ran to Xie Xuning’s side and laid her hands on his forehead to check his temperature.
“Dr. Xie, my dad’s having a fever now!”
Fortunately, Xie Yi reminded Ye Tianxin to prepare a bucket of water in the room in advance.
Ye Tianxin wet the towel and placed it on Xie Xuning’s forehead gently.
Xie Yi took out a thermometer, shook it slightly, and placed it under Xie Xuning’s armpit.
“Linlang...”
“Linlang...”
Xie Xuning’s skin was scorching. Xie Yi could feel the heat emitting from his body just by sitting beside him.
She felt as if she might be scorched anytime from Xie Xuning’s abnormally high temperature.
“Is your dad muttering your mom’s name?”
Ye Tianxin nodded and said, “Yes.”
Xie Yi felt a hint of inexplicable bitterness coming from her heart. He was a devoted man who still missed his wife even after so long.
There would always be a place for his wife inside his heart. Such a devoted man was simply too rare to be found in the world.
“Dr. Xie, will my dad be fine?”
Xie Yi pulled out the thermometer under his armpits and checked the readings.
“39.3.”
Ye Tianxin was startled when she heard the readings. His temperature was high.
“I’ll give him a dose of Acetaminophen. Don’t worry. I’ll stay by his side with you tonight.”
Ye Tianxin nodded.
Xie Yi skillfully injected the Acetaminophen into Xie Xuning’s body. However, it was impossible for Xie Xuning to recover from his fever immediately, even with the best Acetaminophen injection. It would require some time before the effects could take place.
“Linlang…”
In a daze, Xie Xuning found himself walking along a street.
He saw his beloved Linlang, who was wearing a white dress, walking in front of him. Meanwhile, he followed slowly behind her, pushing his bicycle.
“Linlang, don’t go too fast!”
Ye Linlang was holding a sun hat with wide brims in her hands.
She turned around and covered her chin with the hat playfully and said, “Xuning, walk faster. The movie’s going to start soon…”
She was smiling.
A breeze was blowing, and her jet-black hair gently fluttered in the same direction as the wind.
“Linlang, come here. Hop on my bicycle.”
Ye Linlang refused to get onto his bicycle, but she jogged towards him instead. She gave him a peck on the lips and ran away again.
“Linlang!”
Xie Xuning chased after Ye Linlang, and Ye Linlang was giggling. Her laughter sounded as pleasant as the ring of silver bells.
With a loud bang, the beautiful scene came to a halt abruptly.
His beloved Linlang was lying unconscious in a pool of blood, her white dress dyed red.
Her jet-black hair was blood-soaked. It was a gruesome sight.
“No, no, no… Linlang!”
Xie Xuning, who was asleep on the brick bed, looked as if he was in extreme pain. The expression on his face was agonizing and terrifying.
“Linlang…”
Xie Xuning was howling grievously like a wounded beast.
Xie Yi subconsciously held Xie Xuning’s hands in hers and said, “Don’t worry, Xuning.. I’m right here.”
