Chapter 1455 - I Only Want You (2/2)
However, she did not care about what others thought about her. She could not see them anyway.
Upon the sight of a public bus, Snowman led her toward it.
“Sir, how much does it cost to get to the city?” she asked.
“Ten dollars.”
She took out a ten dollar-coin from her pocket and handed them to the ticketing staff, after which Snowman brought her to an empty seat and she sat down.
It was a direct bus to the terminal.
The terminal was an interchange in the city.
Hence, she did not have to alight at all.
One and a half hour later, she finally reached her destination.
If the bus driver had driven faster, they would have arrived in an hour.
However, there was some delay today.
Seeing that she was an expectant mother, the ticketing staff especially stood outside the bus to help her down. She said, “Lass, it just snowed a while ago. You must be very careful when you’re walking, especially since you’re by yourself. It would be terrible if you were to fall. That’d be extremely worrying.”
“Thank you, Ma’am. I’ll be very careful. May I ask when the last bus of the day will arrive?”
“The last bus will arrive at half-past five in the afternoon. It used to be six, but it’s been brought forward because it’s wintertime now.”
“Alright,” Mu Wansheng answered with a nod.
She held onto Snowman’s leash with her right hand and grabbed the electronic navigation device in her left. All she had to do was to switch the device on and it would automatically display her current location. Although she could not see, she could hear the audio instructions, which informed her about her whereabouts.
She stood by the roadside and waved her hand up and down. A long while later, a taxi finally pulled over and the driver asked, “Miss, where are you headed to?”
She got inside the taxi together with Snowman after telling him her desired destination.
The taxi driver initially wanted to cheat her of her money after seeing that she was blind. To his surprise, the electronic navigation device constantly gave audio reminders to tell her where they were and how many kilometers she had traveled.
Hence, the taxi driver had no choice but to forgo the idea of exploiting her.
Mu Wansheng alighted from the car and walked toward the construction site where Tang Yucheng was supposed to be working at.
“Does Tang Yucheng work here?”
“Tang Yucheng? He’s at the hospital now. He fell off the building while he was working.”
Mu Wansheng’s heart almost jumped out of her chest and she asked worriedly, “Is his condition serious? Were the injuries severe?”
“I’m not too sure either. How are you related to him?”
“I’m his wife. Which hospital is he in now? Please tell me.”
“He had been sent to the First People’s Hospital.”
Mu Wansheng frantically made her way to the hospital. Pangs of panic engulfed her, and she constantly reminded herself not to get flustered. She wished she could sprint there right away.
However, she was well aware that things would get worse if she were to have a great fall.
Hence, she was careful with her step and only sped up when she arrived at the hospital.
She was very familiar with the hospital and knew where all the clinics and wards were even though she could not see.
She decided to inquire about Tang Yucheng at the front desk first.
“May I know which ward Tang Yucheng has been admitted to? Please help me check.”
After checking the records, the nurse said, “He’s staying in Ward 712 on the seventh floor.”
“Thank you.”
She immediately rushed to the ward while pulling onto Snowman.
