Chapter 572: Chapter 570 It’s Alright_1

"No need to be polite." The nurse smiled and went to draw blood from Lu Tingli and the others.

"Did it hurt?" After he finished drawing blood, Xia Ningxing eagerly peered at him through the isolation glass.

When she had her blood taken, his heart ached, and the feeling was mutual!

Lu Tingli tapped the glass in front of her forehead, "A big man like me, hurt? Impossible!"

"Alright, alright, big men don’t feel pain!" Xia Ningxing rolled her eyes at him.

She sat back down on the small stool.

Actually, Xia Ningxing didn’t want to be isolated; she preferred to don the protective suit and fight on the front lines, but Uncle Lu insisted that she stay put, refusing to allow her to go back into the infected area at all costs.

The media also picked up on the fact that Xia Ningxing was quarantined, and many press releases appeared online—

Her fans felt terrible about it.

"My Baby Xing is also quarantined, oh my god!"

"I feel so bad for Baby Xing!"

"I hope Baby Xing stays safe!"

"Do you know how Baby Xing got quarantined? She was originally at the hospital for a postpartum checkup, but then a patient at Lu Hospital was infected with the S-type plague, and at that time, no one knew it was a plague. Our compassionate Baby Xing went to see if she could treat it, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a contagious disease, and because of this, she ended up quarantined!"

"Oh my god, Baby Xing is so pitiful, clearly a victim of circumstance!"

"Exactly, otherwise, with the Lu family’s resources, I guess she would never have been infected at all!"

"Baby Xing is indeed unlucky, but this just shows her caring heart!"

"Yeah!"

"By the way, I also heard that Baby Xing’s husband, Lu Tingli, disregarding the dangers of the epidemic, took the initiative to go to the hospital and asked to be quarantined, now he is right next to Baby Xing’s ward!"

"Mama mia! I suddenly believe in love again!"

"Me too! How many people in the world can do that!"

"None, except for Lu Tingli!"

In the face of disaster, such entertainment news usually wouldn’t matter much, but the profound love between Xia Ningxing and Lu Tingli touched countless hearts.

It made people feel a sudden warmth inside, and a smile involuntarily spread across their lips.

So, there is true love in the world!

To give the public hope, some reporters and photographers even went to hospitals and the Health Organization Building to shoot footage, which was then broadcast on all channels.

Inside the hospital, doctors stood their ground, facing the threat of the plague at the frontline of defense.

In front of the cameras, not a trace of fear could be seen on the faces of the doctors and nurses, only the spirit of righteousness: "We will fight the plague to the end!"

Their voices were in unison, steadfast and unyielding!

Viewers in front of televisions found themselves tearing up; these doctors, ranging from their twenties to their sixties or seventies, were parents, children, spouses—they had families of their own, yet they were willing to risk their personal safety for the greater good.

"Mom!"

"Dad!"

"Grandpa!"

Especially the relatives of these medical workers, they cried their hearts out at the sight of them.

Everyone knew the hospital was the place with the most viruses, and even though they wore protective suits, their chances of infection were still several times higher than that of the average person!

The camera then shifted to show countless guards standing neatly at every corner, maintaining order, and disinfected the streets and alleys.

Inside the Health Organization Building, numerous medical experts were gathered, working tirelessly day and night researching a vaccine, particularly the relentless effort of countless medical experts.

For a brief moment, Star Shine made every citizen aware that they were trying hard and that they were also in a hurry!

With hearts united, boundless is the love.

Instantly, it built up a pillar of spiritual support, and all the people were rejuvenated with confidence, looking forward to tomorrow, to the vaccine, to the end of this catastrophe.

The results of the blood tests would not be available until the third day.

During these days of isolation, Xia Ningxing had been thinking about ways to fight the plague.

She also prescribed some formulas and had the nurses take them out to prepare the medications.

However, the effect was minimal; at best, it eased the pain of the onset of the illness.

As the saying goes, "prescribe the right remedy for the illness," but without a clear understanding of the symptoms and the source of infection, how could she do that?

Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but shake her head.

But there was finally some good news: the first infected patient had been found, and he was from Tom City.

Being the first to be infected, his condition was very serious; he could only be kept alive on a respirator.

Perhaps because he felt he was going to die, or maybe out of guilt, he finally came clean.

It turned out that a month ago, he had gone hunting in the Forest of Original Stones for some unlawful trading activities. Along the way, a group of monkeys stole his luggage. Driven by hunger, he picked and ate some beautifully colored fruits from a tree, and he developed a fever the same day. However, the fever quickly subsided, and he thought nothing of it.

But, to his surprise, once back in the country, he began to feel all sorts of discomfort, and despite taking medication and getting injections, he never got better. It wasn’t until everyone around him fell ill with the same symptoms that he started to panic and think carefully about what he could have possibly done.

In the end, after much thought, he guessed that the problem must have been with those colored fruits. (This is purely fictitious.)

Regarding the colored fruits mentioned by the patient, officials from the government and the Health Organization Building have already sent people to investigate and collect samples.

"Finally, we have some clues," Xia Ningxing finally showed a hint of relief, but anxiety prevailed.

Because even if the source of infection was known, it wasn’t certain when a vaccine could be developed.

Every minute, every second, several more people were dying.

Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but sigh again, feeling for the first time how utterly powerless she was.

"Ningxing, don’t be so downhearted. I believe we can solve this disaster; we can all survive," Lu Tingli comforted her through a layer of glass.

The confidence and hope in his eyes immediately encouraged Xia Ningxing.

"Yes! We can do it!" Xia Ningxing spirited up and nodded vigorously.

The blood test reports came out on the third day.

Neither Xia Ningxing nor Lu Tingli was infected.

Uncle Lu was also not infected.

Upon learning this result, Xia Ningxing was so overjoyed that tears welled up uncontrollably.

Good!

It was truly such a relief!

Neither she nor he had been infected!

The moment she stepped out of the isolation room, Xia Ningxing looked at the shaggy-bearded man before her and once again couldn’t hold back her tears.

"Lu!"

She called out to him, her voice choked with emotion.

Then, she threw herself into his arms.

She hugged the man tightly, and he hugged her just as firmly in return.

"It’s okay now, it’s all okay, Ningxing, we’re all right!!" The man rested his chin on her forehead, took a deep breath, and kept repeating these words.
