Chapter 605: Chapter 605 Medical Book (2)_1

Situ Xin’s figure, along with his grandfather’s, had just appeared in his mind when he felt his consciousness beginning to blur, and his last impression was the sound of Yu Qihao and Situ Jin calling out beside his ear. Then, he lost consciousness.

He thought he was certainly going to die this time. After all, the bullet had hit him in the chest. So, when he opened his eyes to nothing but whiteness, he felt lost and unsure of his surroundings.

Xiao Muli lay there with his eyes open, staring blankly at the ceiling, recalling a period when he seemed to smell the unique fragrance of Situ Xin, feeling her soft little hands. At that moment, he desperately tried to open his eyes, wanting to catch one last glimpse of Situ Xin.

But no matter how hard he tried, his eyes just wouldn’t open.

Outside the window, Situ Xin, seeing Xiao Muli inside staring unblinkingly at the ceiling after opening his eyes, had a thought—could it be that Xiao Muli had some brain damage after being shot? Otherwise, why would he be so dazed?

Just as Situ Xin wondered if Xiao Muli had injured his brain, Xiao Muli moved his gaze away from the ceiling and turned to his left. And there he saw Situ Xin standing by the glass window.

The moment Xiao Muli saw Situ Xin, he wondered if he was hallucinating because he missed her so much. He blinked vigorously, and when he saw Situ Xin still standing at the glass window, he was convinced it wasn’t a trick of the eye, but that Situ Xin was truly standing there.

When Situ Xin saw Xiao Muli looking her way, she fought back her excitement, reached out her hand, and waved to Xiao Muli lying in the intensive care unit—a silent gesture. But however much Situ Xin controlled herself, tears flowed silently down her cheeks.

Seeing the tearful Situ Xin, Xiao Muli’s heart ached. He was eager to wipe the tears from Situ Xin’s face, but his body was completely immobile at the moment. He could only watch Situ Xin anxiously.

After a while, Situ Xin calmed down and then remembered she had been standing there foolishly, staring at Xiao Muli for so long. Why hadn’t she gone straight into the intensive care unit?

After disinfecting herself, Situ Xin opened the door and entered the intensive care unit.

Situ Xin could enter the ward so easily thanks to the kindness of the hospital director. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to enter the intensive care unit.

Xiao Muli watched Situ Xin enter, his eyes brightening. He was delighted that the first thing he saw upon opening his eyes was the love of his life.

After Situ Xin entered the intensive care unit, she glared at Xiao Muli and said, "Hmph, how dare you get hurt so badly, causing Grandpa Xiao and the others to worry this much. Just wait; once you’re healed, see how I deal with you."

Xiao Muli looked at Situ Xin’s feisty demeanor and cracked a slight smile. If he could speak at the moment, he would surely let her deal with him however she pleased.

After chiding Xiao Muli, Situ Xin reached out and touched his hand that was hooked up to an IV. She checked his pulse, assessing Xiao Muli’s current condition.

Thanks to the trace of Spiritual Energy Situ Xin had left in Xiao Muli’s body and the Spirit Pill she fed him after the bullet was removed, Xiao Muli’s body was recovering bit by bit. The progress wasn’t fast, at least in Situ Xin’s eyes, but his condition was slowly moving in the right direction.

While Situ Xin checked his pulse and examined him, Xiao Muli stared unblinkingly at her until the continued gazing made her face flush with a mix of irritation and shyness, and she snapped at him, "What are you looking at? You’re the patient, so lie down and rest properly."

Xiao Muli, having sustained such a severe injury and barely awake, was indeed very weak. Having been conscious for such a long time, he was really tired. And so, when Situ Xin reprimanded him, he obediently closed his eyes and after a short while, drifted back to sleep.

Old Master Xiao rushed to Grandpa Xiao’s ward the moment he heard from Situ Xin that Xiao Muli had awakened.

Luckily, Situ Xin was quick to react, quickly stopping Old Master Xiao before he could burst into the ward, "Eh, Grandpa Xiao, don’t be in such a rush. Brother Muli has already fallen asleep."

"What? Asleep again? Didn’t he just wake up? How did he fall asleep so fast?" Upon hearing his grandson had fallen back to sleep, Old Master Xiao’s excitement vanished from his face. It disappeared so quickly that everyone might think they were seeing things.

"Brother Muli suffered a serious injury and is very weak. Waking up earlier had already taken a great toll on him," Situ Xin patiently explained to Old Master Xiao. She understood she had to make things clear, or the old man would be terribly upset.

"So, Muli should be out of danger now, right?" Old Master Xiao, who had been worried about Xiao Muli’s well-being, felt somewhat relieved after Situ Xin’s explanation, but he still asked for confirmation.

"Grandpa Xiao, don’t worry, I’m here. I promise nothing will happen to Brother Muli. I just took his pulse, and he’s past the critical period," Situ Xin confidently assured with a look that demanded belief.

"That’s great he’s past the critical period. Xiao Xin, I’m so grateful you’re here. If it weren’t for you, I really wouldn’t know what to do," Old Master Xiao looked at Situ Xin with a mixture of relief and a hint of sadness in his eyes.

Finding a place to sit down, Old Master Xiao reflected, "After this incident, I have come to realize that my son and daughter-in-law cannot be relied on. In my old age, I guess I can only count on Muli."

"Grandpa Xiao, why speak of such things now? Alright, sit here and rest a while. I brought some pastries; you should eat a little. You can’t let your health fail when Brother Muli wakes up," Situ Xin, fearing that Old Master Xiao might go hungry in the middle of the night, took out some pre-prepared pastries to fill his stomach, effectively distracting him from dwelling on unpleasant thoughts.
