Chapter 468

The car hadn't even come to a complete stop when Lu Jinnian pulled open the door and got out . He took big strides towards the car in front, but before he even got there, Xu Jiamu had gotten out with Qiao Anhao in his arms . He rushed over to A&E, as Qiao Anxia hurriedly locked the car and caught up .

Lu Jinnian's footsteps stumbled for just a moment, then he caught up to them .

There were many people in the hospital . They took Qiao Anhao immediately to the operating room .

Xu Jiamu sat on a chair in the waiting room with an anxious expression, whereas Qiao Anxia sat restlessly in her seat . She eventually got up and paced up and down in front of Xu Jiamu every now and then .

Her pacing made Xu Jiamu feel agitated . He couldn't take it anymore and raised his head . "Qiao Anxia, could you sit and be quiet for a moment?"

"Xu Jiamu, your wife is lying in there, could you look a little worried?" retorted Qiao Anxia .

Xu Jiamu didn't react to her retort and just waved his hand, wearing an expression that said he couldn’t be bothered by her antics .

The assistant instinctively glanced over at Lu Jinnian, who stood around five meters away from the window, when he heard the two words "your wife" from Qiao Anxia's mouth .

Lu Jinnian appeared exceptionally quiet, as though he hadn't heard what was just said, . He stood still, staring out the window . However, the assistant noticed that his hand on the window sill had clenched into a fist . Because he had used excessive force, white lines had formed around his knuckles .

About half an hour later, the doctor emerged from the operating room .

Qiao Anxia was the first to rush over to him . "How's my sister?"

Xu Jiamu followed closely behind, walking up to the doctor .

Lu Jinnian, who stood in his spot without moving, just slightly turned his head towards the two .

The doctor removed the face mask and said, "The patient is fine . Perhaps she hasn't been resting well lately, and when exposed to the cold, it triggered an inflammation in her body . Now, she has a high fever and her blood pressure is low, which is why she fainted . We've given her some fluids for now . "

After a pause, he added, "If one of you is available, please proceed to patient registration for overnight stays . "

Lu Jinnian glanced at his assistant, who instinctively knew to walk up to them . "Miss Da Qiao, Mr . Xu, I'll go . "

Xu Jiamu and Qiao Anxia didn't reject his offer, and nodded . The assistant took the form, ready to go downstairs, when Lu Jinnian stretched out his hand and took it from him, walking downstairs .

After Lu Jinnian came back, Qiao Anhao was given a private room at the hospital . When she fainted, her clothes had become completely dirty . Now, she'd changed into a hospital gown and lay quietly on the bed with an IV drip in her arm . Xu Jiamu sat by her bed with a clean towel in his hands, wiping her hair and clearing the dirt from her face .

Lu Jinnian stood in the corridor, staring at that scene for a long time . In the end, he didn't go in but gave his assistant the money for the hospital bill, then turned to go downstairs on his own .

It was already evening by the time Lu Jinnian came back with a handful of bags .

The needle in Qiao Anhao's arm was already removed and replaced with a plaster . She was deep asleep on the hospital bed .

When Xu Jiamu, Qiao Anxia, and his assistant had received Lu Jinnian's call yesterday, the three of them had rushed overnight, so they hadn't slept all night . On top of that, after a day of torment at the hospital, they were so incredibly exhausted that they couldn't take it anymore and also fell asleep .
