Chapter 499: Suicide? 4_1
He Teng didn’t respond to Lin Chan, he went straight past him, with a trembling hand, under the watchful eyes of several doctors and nurses, he slowly lifted the white cloth. When he saw the pale face underneath was not someone familiar, his heart finally returned to his chest.
"It’s not her." He Teng couldn’t describe his feelings at that moment. He had mustered the courage to lift the white cloth, for a moment there, how he wished, it would turn out to be a prank by He Zhilan.
"Are you a relative of the deceased?" The doctor asked, puzzled.
"No, Doctor, he made a mistake! Our person is still in there being resuscitated!" Chen Xiting stepped forward, pulling He Teng back a few steps and explained to the doctor, then pointed at the operating room nearby and said to He Teng, "Zhilan is still being treated in there."
Lin Chan, standing at the side, scoffed. Just when he was about to mock He Teng some more, the operating room door suddenly swung open. Lin Chan, quicker than anyone else, darted to the front and grabbed the doctor’s arm, "Doctor, how is she?"
"She’s out of immediate danger. We need to move the patient to the ward now, we’ll talk more later." The doctor waved his hand and let the nurse push He Zhilan to her ward.
Only then did He Teng start to recover, not uttering a word, silently walking next to the stretcher, his gaze fixed on the pale face of He Zhilan on the bed, his eyes hardly blinked.
In just one night, she lay there like a paper doll. During his agonizing five-hour car journey, she had been undergoing life-or-death surgery.
