My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 527: Si Lisao Rushes Over a Thousand Miles! 2
On the other side, Si Mingjing concentrated on applying acupuncture to Ye Siyuan, injecting the warmth of a dragon, patiently and meticulously dissolving blood clots and removing bruises—an endeavor that demanded slow, careful work.
She was extremely grateful in her heart.
Fortunately, she had met Professor Yan today, and Professor Yan had taken the initiative to call her to the hospital to observe the surgery. Otherwise, Si Yuan would be undergoing a craniotomy at this very moment!
It wasn’t that a craniotomy was bad, but Si Yuan loved beauty so much—if she had the surgery...
Not to mention Si Yuan, wouldn’t her in-laws be worried to death when they heard the news?
At this time, Bo Leng hurried to the hospital.
His hard-soled dress shoes clacked against the corridor floor outside the operating room, each sound striking at the soul.
Director Fu, who had been driven out of the operating room, saw Bo Leng striding over and immediately went to meet him. His heart momentarily settled as he said, "Prince Bo, you’ve finally arrived! Please go in quickly and persuade Her Majesty the Queen. The patient’s condition cannot tolerate any delay. I’m not saying her medical skills are bad, nor am I questioning her desire to save people. However, there are specialists in every field..."
Before Director Fu could finish, Bo Leng strode past him, gestured, and said, "Since she’s confident, all of you shouldn’t be crowding around here. Disperse! The entrance to an operating room is not a marketplace!"
Due to the considerable commotion Si Mingjing had caused, many onlookers—doctors and nurses from the hospital—had gathered at the operating room door.
Hearing that Si Mingjing had driven the director and the surgical team out, everyone was indignant, feeling that the Queen was somewhat abusing her power.
They were all waiting for someone influential to come and persuade her, but who would have thought Prince Bo would also disregard the gravity of the situation? What were they to do now?
"I heard that Prince Bo and the Prince Regent have never gotten along. Now that the woman the Prince Regent loves is on the operating table, could it be that Prince Bo..."
"Shh, keep your voice down! You can’t say such things carelessly!"
"It’s just that I’m worried! The Prince Regent already appealed to the public on Bowen not to obstruct things. Now, his beloved is in the operating room, her life hanging by a thread, yet the Queen and Prince Bo won’t let the professional medical team operate. What if something happens to Princess Ye? Who will take responsibility then?"
Anyway, our hospital is definitely in for major trouble!
After Bo Leng entered the operating room, he saw Si Mingjing under the bright operating lights, her profile focused and serene. From his vantage point, she was particularly captivating.
Bo Leng lightened his steps, approaching Si Mingjing’s side, trying his best not to disturb her as she administered treatment.
He glanced at Ye Siyuan’s face. He hoped this woman wouldn’t die here. Otherwise, he couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t be implicated in this incident. After all, judging by where it happened, the woman had run into trouble on his turf!
Si Mingjing sensed someone beside her and turned her head.
Bo Leng said, "Keep going. Don’t get distracted!"
Si Mingjing promptly refocused her gaze on her work.
"I’ve already called Si Lisao. He’s on his way," Bo Leng informed her. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
After speaking, Bo Leng pulled over a chair and sat down beside her. He crossed his long legs; he was like a pillar of strength, even more like the towering Mount Tai, offering her his silent support and protection.
Time ticked by. From half-past seven in the evening until nine-forty, Si Mingjing was still meticulously applying the needles.
Out in the operating room corridor, another set of hurried footsteps approached. It was Si Lisao.
His arrival rekindled Director Fu’s hope.
Director Fu hurried over to him again. "Prince Regent, you’ve finally arrived!"
"Where is she?" Si Lisao asked, his voice slightly breathless. He had evidently run all the way after disembarking his submarine.
Director Fu pointed to the operating room, which was guarded by security personnel, and said, "Miss Ye is inside. We’ve already been delayed for over three hours. I must perform a craniotomy on Miss Ye immediately! Otherwise, her life is in danger with every passing minute."
Si Lisao moved to enter but stopped the Deputy Director who tried to follow, waving him off. "Everyone else, stay outside!"
On his way, Si Lisao had already gotten a clear picture of the situation.
His younger sister wanted to treat Si Yuan with Traditional Chinese Medicine, but her medical skills weren’t recognized by the Deputy Director. Left with no other choice, she had used her authority to take control of the operating room and was now treating Si Yuan inside.
Si Lisao trusted his sister’s medical skills.
When he entered, the sight of the girl lying on the operating table made his heart run cold.
Bo Leng sat nearby with his arms crossed, in a commanding posture, his eyes half-closed. When he noticed Si Lisao enter, he merely lifted his gaze coldly and said, "Don’t disturb her acupuncture. Your woman isn’t dead yet!"
Si Lisao walked softly to the operating table. He cupped Ye Siyuan’s right hand in both of his, pressed it to his cheek, and felt its warmth. His own heart warmed in response.
It was rare for Bo Leng to see such panic and desolation on Si Lisao’s face. This was the first time, and he took it all in.
"What is it about this woman that you find so appealing?" Bo Leng wasn’t belittling Ye Siyuan; he was genuinely curious.
Si Lisao disliked Bo Leng’s tone and retorted, "And what about the woman who caught your eye?"
A cold smirk touched Bo Leng’s lips. "To each their own!"
"Then shut up!"
Bo Leng rose to his full height and walked out directly. Now that the most concerned party had arrived, he had no reason to stay.
Before leaving the hospital, he instructed his assistant, "Find out how Ye Siyuan came to be in Shendu and how she got injured!"
The assistant had already begun investigating. He immediately reported, "It seems Second Princess Ye came to Shendu to visit Her Majesty the Queen and her little nephew. Her submarine was passing near Coral Park, on the outskirts of Shendu, so she bought a ticket to visit. Inside the park, a child had gotten separated from their family. Second Princess Ye was kindly helping the child find their parents when some park equipment malfunctioned. A piece of metal broke off and flew towards them, seemingly aimed at the child. She was hit while shielding the child."
Bo Leng’s sharply defined, cold face turned towards the assistant. He looked at him coldly and asked, "Just a simple accident?"
"According to eyewitnesses, it was just a simple accident."
"Investigate further!"
Injured in an accident in Shendu? His intuition told him it might not be that simple.
"Yes, the Prince Regent is also having people look into it."
In the operating room, seeing the worry in Si Lisao’s eyes, Si Mingjing said, "Crown Prince, don’t worry. I’m almost finished here. Si Yuan will be fine."
Si Mingjing had been treating Ye Siyuan’s intracranial hematoma for nearly four hours and was now in the final stages.
She was confident that once she was done, Si Yuan would be out of danger and back on her feet, full of life, within a week.
Just then, Ye Siyuan, who had been unconscious all this time, twitched her fingers.
Noticing her fingers move, Si Lisao tightened his grip on her hand and whispered into her ear, "Si Yuan? Don’t be afraid. Your sister-in-law said you’ll be fine."
Ye Siyuan slowly, so very slowly, opened her eyes. Seeing Si Lisao, she weakly mouthed, "So... painful..."
Si Lisao leaned down and pressed a kiss to her pale, trembling lips. He then gently caressed her forehead with his palm. "Like this... does it still hurt?"
Ye Siyuan struggled to manage a smile; for a moment, the pain seemed to lessen. She whispered, "Still... I want more..."
