Stars In His Eyes

From Capital University to Medical University Affiliated Hospital, Lin Chan managed to cut the journey down to 15 minutes. He didn’t have time to wait for Chen Xiting’s reply, and rushed directly into the emergency room carrying He Zhilan.

Thanks to Lin Chan’s previous call, the doctors were already waiting outside the emergency building. When Lin Chan came in carrying He Zhilan, they immediately took her, and also took a pill from Lin Chan that he had brought from He Zhilan’s dormitory.

"Will anything happen to He Zhilan? Will anything really happen to her?" Chen Xiting was already at a loss. He longed to follow the doctors and see if He Zhilan was okay.

"How long was it from when you left to when I arrived?" Asked Lin Chan, a bit irritated by Chen Xiting’s sobbing, "More than an hour?"

"No!" Chen Xiting shook his head, "About forty to fifty minutes."

"Then there should still be hope!" Lin Chan said, but his tightened nerves showed no signs of relaxation. Perhaps out of annoyance, he cursed, left the emergency building, and picked up his cell phone that was still in the car. He called Xing Ye’s unit and only said that He Zhilan had tried to commit suicide and was now being treated at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital and then hung up. Then he made another call to Xing Ye’s old unit, which is where He Teng currently is.

The group leader answered the phone. Hearing that it was for He Teng, he was a little annoyed, wondering why all the calls for He Teng were directed to his office. "Who are you? What do you want with He Teng?"

Lin Chan was not in good humor to begin with, and he was getting impatient at the moment. His response to He Teng’s group leader’s chatter was a roar, "I’m Lin Chan, tell that damn He Teng that He Zhilan has tried to commit suicide! Tell him to come to the Medical University Affiliated Hospital to collect his wife’s body!"
