Chapter 682: My Good Child
Fortunately, before Lu Yizhou could rise himself to the challenge – because he was damn sure he could endure a little pain in exchange for more kisses – the hover car swiveled sharply into one of the houses outside the heart of the city before coming to an abrupt stop.
Dr. Feng and Dr. Xiao did not waste even one second as they jumped down from the car.
"Please wait here for a while!" Dr. Xiao told Zachary as she rushed first into the house to start the medical cabin, leaving Dr. Feng with the arduous task to carry Lu Yizhou inside. Zeke pursed his lips and watched anxiously as Lu Yizhou’s bloodied back gradually disappeared into the building. He did not need to wait long for Dr. Xiao to come out again and help him inside.
The house did not look any different from others from outside. But once inside, Zeke could immediately tell that every inch of the space was filled with medical tools. The house was completely barren of ordinary furniture except for a long couch and table in the middle of the living room.
As they were walking, Dr. Xiao swiftly gave him a brief tour. "The house has two floors, two bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs. The medical cabin is in one of the rooms upstairs and the Head Administrator has gone up to put Lu Yizhou inside. Don’t worry, he will be fine once the cabin is working to promote his cell growth. As for you, what do you think of the room downstairs?"
Dr. Xiao was being very considerate as she recalled that Zeke was still unable to walk on his own. There was no way he would be comfortable with climbing the stairs right now. Thus, she chose the bedroom downstairs to settle him down. As she spoke, she was already supporting Zeke there when the latter suddenly braked and shook his head.
"No, I want to stay with Lu Yizhou." Zeke pressed his lips tight, his brows knitting in determination. "...Please," he added as an afterthought.
Dr. Xiao was helpless. Somehow, she had already seen this coming. She knew that Zeke would definitely be worried about Lu Yizhou and wanted to stick to him at all times, but... he just had not seen what he looked like. His complexion was uncannily pale and it was unknown whether it was due to the fright or cold, his lips had gained a bluish tinge. He looked even worse than when he was still in a coma. And because he had been exposed to the freezing weather for too long, his immune system had weakened considerably. Dr. Xiao could sense that the hand she was holding right now was extremely hot.
As such, no matter how soft-hearted she was, she still forced herself to reject Zeke’s request outright. "No." She half-carried and half-dragged Zeke to the bedroom across the living room, her tone brooking no arguments. "If you keep this up, then you will collapse soon."
