Chapter 733: Chapter 733: Don’t Hurt Yourself_1

The two of them moved with the greatest speed, bolting from the mall to the side of the road.

Xia Qingtian was in such a state of panic that there was no way she could drive. The only choice was to hail a taxi, hoping to find one quickly.

If she was too late, it would be too late!

Fortunately, their luck wasn’t too bad. When they reached the roadside, they saw someone get down from a taxi.

Xia Qingtian immediately grabbed Cheng Bingbing and ran over, jumped into the taxi, and stated the address of the hospital they wanted to go to.

She had heard quite clearly which hospital Huo Qilin was going to when his car’s navigation had sounded while he was on the phone earlier.

There was no need to waste time investigating that now.

Cheng Bingbing was still in a daze, she had no idea what had happened. When she heard that Xia Qingtian said they were heading to the hospital, she asked anxiously, "Qingtian sis, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

"No, it’s Huo Qilin!" replied Xia Qingtian with a frown.

A lump formed in Cheng Bingbing’s chest as she anxiously asked, "What’s happened to Qilin?"

Thinking about the phone call that Xia Qingtian had just received, had something happened to Huo Qilin?

In order to stop Huo Qilin, Xa Qingtian had brought Cheng Bingbing along for the ride, so there was no way that she could keep her in the dark about this. However, because Cheng Bingbing was pregnant, she needed some psychological preparation before hearing the truth.

"Huo Qilin haven’t got into any accident yet!" She thought to herself as she seriously told Cheng Bingbing, "However, if we don’t hurry now there is a chance that something bad will happen. So, you need to prepare yourself, any discomfort from stress will only slow us down from finding Huo Qilin and stopping him."

Seeing her like this, Cheng Bingbing felt a pang of anxiety.

She swallowed hard and quietly said, "Just tell me directly, Qingtian sis, I’ll be fine."

With Cheng Bingbing mentally prepared, Xia Qingtian took the time to explain everything to her.

Cheng Bingbing’s face had turned deathly pale, but she didn’t overreact. Clutching the corner of her clothing, her eyes reddening, she asked, "Qingtian sis, can we reach the hospital in time to stop Qilin before his surgery starts?"

"We can!" reassured Xia Qingtian with a nod.

Even though she sounded very certain, it was really just to comfort Cheng Bingbing. She was unsure herself.

Afterwards, Cheng Bingbing didn’t say another word. Her face and body were both tense, reflecting the unease beneath the surface.

All the way, Xia Qingtian kept urging the driver to hurry up.

When they were three kilometers from their destination, they encountered a traffic jam.

Xia Qingtian and Cheng Bingbing were about to lose their minds.

Xia Qingtian stuck her head out of the window to take a look and realized that the traffic was held up due to a traffic accident up ahead. It didn’t seem like the road would clear up any time soon.

Turning back wasn’t an option anymore.

The taxi they were in was stuck in the middle of it all.

They were running against the clock. If they waited for the road to clear, who knew how long it might take? By the time they reached the hospital, perhaps Huo Qilin’s surgery would have been completed, and he might have even been discharged.

Xia Qingtian knew she couldn’t waste any more time.

After a moment’s thought, she made a snap decision to sprint to the hospital, hoping she could make it in time.

With that thought in mind, she said to Cheng Bingbing, "Bingbing, you stay in the car and continue to the hospital. I’ll get out now and rush there to stop Huo Qilin."

"Of course, in the end, only you can change his mind!"

Cheng Bingbing immediately said, "I’ll come with you."

Xia Qingtian objected, "You can’t."

Cheng Bingbing insisted, but Xia Qingtian cut her off, "You’re pregnant now, vigorous exercise is not suitable for you. I can handle it."

Cheng Bingbing touched her stomach, nodded, and said, "Alright."

Once Cheng Bingbing agreed, Xia Qingtian immediately pushed the taxi door open and sprinted towards the hospital.

She had not engaged in vigorous exercise for a long time. She arrived at the hospital, hardly catching her breath, but immediately started asking about the ward where Huo Qilin was having his surgery.

Once she found out, despite her body about to collapse from exhaustion, she went to find Huo Qilin.

She arrived just in time to see Huo Qilin in hospital attire, following a doctor towards the operating room.

Dragging her heavy legs, Xia Qingtian rushed forward and grabbed Huo Qilin by the arm.

"Please, please stop!" Each word felt like her lungs were about to explode, causing excruciating pain, but she forced herself to say, "Cancel the surgery, don’t, don’t do any surgery."

Huo Qilin was surprised to see her, "How did you get here?"

With one hand gripping his arm and the other clutching her chest, Xia Qingtian said huffily, "I, I’m here to stop your surgery."

Hearing her words, Huo Qilin slowly and steadily shook off her hand, "Didn’t I tell you over the phone, I have already made up my mind. No one can stop me."

Xia Qingtian was about to lose her temper.

"You..." Just as she was about to fly off the handle, she heard a familiar soft but firm female voice behind her.

"What if I’m the one to stop you?"

Xia Qingtian turned her head to see Cheng Bingbing approaching.

She was taken by surprise. Did the road clear up so quickly?

If that was the case, then she had just run for nothing, hadn’t she?

Before she could ask, she saw Cheng Bingbing, face flushed, leaning against a wall for support, legs shaking uncontrollably. She looked exactly like someone who had just ran all the way to the hospital.

It dawned on her, Cheng Bingbing had deceived her earlier.

Earlier, she had agreed to take the taxi to the hospital. The moment Xia Qingtian stepped out of the taxi, she must have followed suit and ran the rest of the way to the hospital.

Huo Qilin had also noticed Cheng Bingbing, his eyes lighting up.

This was their first meeting since the proposal failed, and strangely enough, it was in a hospital.

Even before this, he had been yearning for Cheng Bingbing.

Seeing her now, his longing didn’t decrease. Instead, he ached for her even more.

Suppressing his urge to embrace her immediately, he promised her instead, "Bingbing, don’t worry about this matter. The security that you and the baby need, I’ll definitely provide it."

Cheng Bingbing steeled herself against her trembling legs and inched closer to Huo Qilin. She seriously said, "There’s no need. I don’t need you to hurt yourself to give me a sense of security. If that’s the case, then I’d rather not have it."
