Soon, they arrived at the hospital.

Si Yiyan carried Wen Xinya out of the car and sprinted towards the hospital.

Gu Yuehan followed closely behind and stared at Si Yiyan’s bony spine.

Si Yiyan had arranged for the best medical professionals and specialists to wait in the hospital, who received them as soon as they entered. Si Yiyan then accompanied Wen Xinya into the emergency room.

The doctor conducted a physical examination on Wen Xinya.

Si Yiyan headed to the partitioned room to change into an antiseptic gown before heading to the emergency room. “How’s her condition now?”

He sounded extremely austere and a sudden tension filled the air. It was as if they were in a claustrophobic space and the team of reputable doctors felt like they were stepping on eggshells.

One of the doctors answered, “Her fever has been running for more than four hours and reached a temperature of 39-40 degrees celsius. She’s already gotten pneumonia. Fortunately, she was sent to the hospital in time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been dire.”

Si Yiyan’s heart wrenched up upon hearing that she had been running a fever for four hours. “How’s her condition now?”

The doctor said, “Miss Wen’s condition isn’t too serious yet. I’ve already wiped her arms and legs with some rubbing alcohol and her fever seems to be subsiding. We’ll be putting her on some anti-inflammation drip now, and her fever should subside completely in an hour’s time.”

Si Yiyan nodded and remained silent, feeling a little thankful.

The doctor hurriedly administered the drip for Wen Xinya.

When the nurse was sticking the needle into Wen Xinya, she sensed that Si Yiyan was staring at her coldly. She straightened her spine unnaturally, her nervousness making her hold her breath and break out into cold sweat. Although it was just a simple procedure that she had performed countless times before, she felt extremely nervous and was afraid that she would make a mistake or hurt the patient.

The simple procedure that should have been performed in a brief second, took her five seconds to complete. After the pulmonary needle was attached, she suddenly felt weak and powerless, only to realize that she had already broken out in cold sweat.

Another doctor then said, “Due to the heavy impact that she has suffered in the back of her head, there are now internal hemorrhages and some serious concussions. She’s also bruised in several areas and suffered numerous abrasions. Although Miss Wen has suffered severe physical abuse, she has a strong sense of defense and her internal organs are intact.”

Si Yiyan began to breathe heavily as a sudden stuffiness filled his chest. He clutched it and bent forward while panting and inhaling. The first lesson that he had taught her, was how to escape fatal blows and attacks. However, she had never been able to perform it properly. He actually knew that humans could put these skills to use during times of danger, only when they had mastered those techniques and committed them to muscle memory.

Had he known earlier that this would happen, he wouldn’t have taught her those combat skills. The world was fair. You get what you learn.

Si Yiyan asked, “Will the injuries on her head cause any adverse effects to her brain or cerebral nerves? Will there be repercussions or side effects after the treatment? Will her brain be affected by the concussion?”

The doctor answered, “The injuries on her head may be serious, but her nerves are not affected. As long as there is proper aftercare, there won’t be any side effects or repercussions. The concussions might make Miss Wen feel giddy and nauseous or suffer from headaches, insomnia or frustration. However, these symptoms will disappear with proper care.”

Si Yiyan asked, “Is there anything else that we have to look out for for the time being?”

He remembered that Ning Shuqian had developed a mental disorder because she had failed to take proper care of her head injury, which had affected her brain. Hence, he made sure to ask for clear instructions.

“Make sure not to let the patient get too agitated or use her brain excessively. She mustn’t speak too loudly either. Otherwise, she might suffer from delusions and hallucinations.”
