Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant! -
Chapter 231: Solemnity
Chapter 231: Chapter 231: Solemnity
The caretaker, who had assumed he was already asleep and was sneaking in a nap, was startled by the piercing sound and jumped up from the accompanying bed.
Panicked, she looked at the grim numbers on the monitor before she noticed his unresponsive state and the cell phone that had fallen to the floor. She grabbed the call bell and furiously pressed it, shouting into the intercom in the local language, "He needs resuscitation!"
When Jing Su and Jing Ruo arrived, the hospital room was empty and looked somewhat disheveled, even the hospital bed was no longer there.
This left the siblings puzzled and uneasy.
"What... happened?" Jing Ruo blinked and said anxiously.
They had learned of the situation back home and, of course, were worried. Jing Ruo immediately wanted to come over, so she impetuously asked Jing Su for a plane.
Jing Su had not initially planned to come. He was wrapped up in a lot of business and could not always get away, but he felt this accident was somewhat unusual. Moreover, he couldn’t just let Jing Ruo come alone. What could she handle by herself? All she knew was to cry.
So, after much thought, he still arranged the flight, planning to come with Jing Ruo.
"I’ll go ask," a calm female voice said, not Jing Ruo’s; she couldn’t have been so steady.
"Thank you, Sister Caizi," Jing Ruo quickly said.
The calm voice was indeed Xiao Caizi, who also decided to come over with them, which was somewhat unexpected to them.
’I mean, aren’t I his fiancée in name only?’
Xiao Caizi had said then, but everyone knew it wasn’t really the case.
She wasn’t that concerned about Bo Jingshen, especially, they all knew very well who Bo Jingshen was here for. Not to mention Xiao Caizi having no genuine concern or ideas about Bo Jingshen, even if she did, knowing why he ended up in this state here.
She would have probably moved on, even if not fully, and wouldn’t have specially come over this way.
Xiao Caizi turned around to ask and soon came running back with an extremely grave expression.
Seeing her run back into the ward with such a solemn expression, both Jing Su and Jing Ruo felt a pang in their hearts.
"What happened?" Jing Su asked in a deep voice.
Jing Ruo was too upset to speak.
Xiao Caizi frowned, "You need to go over there and see for yourselves. Bo Jingshen... he can’t return to the ward now."
Jing Su and Jing Ruo didn’t originally understand what she meant by that, but they quickly did.
His attending doctor, upon learning about Jing Su and Jing Ruo’s kinship with him, explained Bo Jingshen’s current condition to them.
Infection, critical situation, emergency resuscitation, ICU, further observation...
Each term was terrifying, whether taken separately or together.
Jing Ruo’s English was poor; she didn’t understand these lengthy medical terms and was frantically stomping her feet. Jing Su, absorbed in listening to the doctor and with a serious look, couldn’t translate for her.
It was Xiao Caizi who quietly translated to Jing Ruo on the side and then gently embraced Jing Ruo’s shoulders as she started crying upon hearing these frightful terms.
After the doctor finished explaining, Jing Su looked at Xiao Caizi, "Thanks."
He felt fortunate that she had come along with them this time; at least in such a situation, he didn’t have to think about how to comfort Ruoruo.
"Big brother, what... what now?" Jing Ruo cried out, sobbing hard, "What... what will happen to little brother..."
Jing Su gently patted Jing Ruo’s hair, "It’s okay, it’s okay. Nothing will happen. He’s tough."
The doctor had mentioned setting up a visit, that to enter the ICU, they needed to change into special disinfection suits and go through another round of disinfection, and even then, they could only view through a glass wall and not actually enter the sterile room.
So, they waited there for the doctor to come and guide them through the change and disinfection process.
Before the doctor arrived, it was actually the caretaker who came over first.
The caretaker spoke to them in English with a heavy accent.
"You mean..." Jing Su furrowed his brows; the caretaker’s accent was so heavy that he had to listen very intently and respond accordingly.
Jing Ruo was even more clueless; her English skills were only average. If someone spoke quickly, she struggled to understand, let alone with such a heavy accent. Earlier, since the doctor didn’t have an accent, she still couldn’t comprehend.
Xiao Caizi, on the other hand, listened and then spoke to them, seemingly without any barriers, "He said, Bo Jingshen woke up once during the resuscitation, asking him to pass a message to you."
"What message?" Jing Su immediately asked.
He had told Bo Jingshen before he came, otherwise, he wouldn’t have headed straight for the hospital room. It was Bo Jingshen who had given him the hospital’s name, address, and room number.
So, it wasn’t strange for Bo Jingshen to ask the caretaker to pass a message to him under such circumstances, in such an atmosphere, waking up during resuscitation.
It just added a bit of mournful feeling, like... as if he were leaving a last message.
Therefore, when they heard Xiao Caizi translate what the caretaker had said, both Jing Su and Jing Ruo felt a sinking feeling.
The caretaker continued chatting away, and Jing Su listened intently; so did Jing Ruo.
Then, despite the heavy accent of the caretaker, both of them understood most of it.
Xiao Caizi glanced at them, realizing that they probably understood the caretaker’s words, so she didn’t translate for them.
The caretaker said, "Mr. Bo woke up once during the resuscitation and asked me to tell Mr. Jing to arrange for a transfer to another hospital after you arrived and to keep his itinerary confidential. All this trouble started because of him; let’s not bring trouble to others anymore."
Since the moment of clarity was very short, being able to maintain consciousness and leave such a message was already not easy. So, the words were also very brief.
Xiao Caizi didn’t quite understand what this meant, but seeing Jing Su and Jing Ruo’s expressions turning even more solemn after hearing this, it was very clear that the siblings totally understood the implications.
"Big brother..." Jing Ruo softly called Jing Su.
Jing Su nodded, "Yeah, got it."
"Then... should we really transfer little brother’s hospital given his current condition?" Jing Ruo’s voice was very low and full of distress.
Jing Su was silent for a moment, then said quietly, "I’ll think of something."
Just then, the doctor arrived, and the siblings hastily prepared to follow him in to change and disinfect.
They had already walked a few steps forward.
Suddenly, Jing Su stopped and turned back.
Xiao Caizi looked up at him.
Jing Su spoke softly, "You wait here for us for a while, or if you’re tired, you can go to the hotel to rest first."
