Bai Muchuan lifted his head in shock. “Why is he asking to see Xiang Wan?”
Cheng Zheng shook his head. “Ye Lun’s very weak and only requested to see her.
What was going on?
Xiang Wan was now fully awake. She sat straight and looked at Bai Muchuan with a bewildered look.
Bai Muchuan pondered for a moment. “He’s dying?”
Cheng Zheng continued to shake his head. “I’ve seen him. If Professor Wang is not here today, he might have died on the operating table. However, Professor Wang said that he won’t last for long. If there’s anything you want to ask him, better hurry up…”
Hurry up?
Ye Lun wanted to see Xiang Wan, not him. How would he be able to ask anything?
Bai Muchuan remained silent.
Cheng Zheng looked at the time. “Why not hear him out first?”
“Mm.” Bai Muchuan helped a baffled looking Xiang Wan up. “I’ll accompany her in.”
…
Ye Lun had been moved from the operating theatre to the Intensive Care Unit.
Xiang Wan followed Bai Muchuan and entered Ye Lun’s ward without even going through the disinfection process.
There was a doctor and two nurses inside. Even though they had entered the ward, they didn’t receive any reaction from the two nurses whose attention was focused on Ye Lun. The doctor alerted them with a cough and their gaze finally moved away from Ye Lun.
The doctor nodded his head at Bai Muchuan and said the same thing as Cheng Zheng.
“We’ve done our best.”
Bai Muchuan nodded then furrowed his eyebrows. “Is he asleep or awake?”
Ye Lun’s eyes were closed and there were all kinds of tubes being inserted into his body. At one look, he didn’t seem to be alive. His face was so colorless that he was not much different from a corpse.
The doctor touched him gently. “Your family is here to see you. Open your eyes—”
The doctor had thought that the person Ye Lun wanted to see must be someone really important to him and should be his family.
Bai Muchuan glared at him coldly with some unhappiness. “Ye Lun, I know you’re awake. Hurry up and open your eyes. Don’t think that you can avoid all these…”
Ye Lun’s fingers moved and soon, his eyes were half-opened.
Nobody knew how he felt as he was pulled back from death, although it was short-lived. He moved his lips and looked at Bai Muchuan for quite a while before his fingers twitched. “The rest of you… go out.”
He spoke so softly that it was almost inaudible.
Bai Muchuan walked closer to him with a grim face. “Ye Lun, I know that there’s no point persuading you. But if I were about to leave the world, I wouldn’t leave with regrets. Tell me…”
Ye Lun’s lips quivered. “… Go out.”
He was not loud but the tone was firm.
Bai Muchuan took a deep breath. Before he could say anything, the doctor tapped his arm and motioned him to move aside. Then he told him in a low tone, back facing Ye Lun, “The condition of the patient is very bad. He could pass out any moment. Don’t provoke him… If he passes out, he might not wake up again.”
“…” Bai Muchuan pursed his lips.
“Let me stay here.” Xiang Wan took a look at Ye Lun then at Bai Muchuan. “Don’t worry. He’s already like that. He can’t do anything to me. I’m not that weak, I can handle a dying patient.”
She knew that Bai Muchuan was worried about her safety.
However, the Ye Lun at this moment was too weak to be a threat.
Bai Muchuan nodded his head then glanced at Ye Lun again. He didn’t raise any more objections.
Before he left, he hugged Xiang Wan.
“Be careful,” he whispered in her ear. “Remember to take a video…”
“Got it, I’ll be careful.”
Xiang Wan hugged him back.
At this moment, every word that Ye Lun said to her may be related to the case.
If she was alone with him in the ward and there was no other evidence to support her testimony, her words wouldn’t be taken as solid evidence.
Therefore, it was very important to have some video evidence.
