Chapter 10
The appearance of Xing Kelei significantly alleviated the inexplicable fear of Mi Na, who was being held captive by a man. She bit her lower lip, her gaze meeting his in mid-air. Xing Kelei looked deeply into her eyes, nodding reassuringly, as if to say: "Don't be afraid, I am here!"
Subsequently, under his visual cue, the crowd tidied up the scene and dispersed
Feeling the small body of Mi Na trembling in his arms, he then saw the man rescued by Shao Yuhan and others being pulled up. Xing Kelei's anger immediately flared up, and while protecting Mi Na in his embrace, he stepped forward and kicked the man in the rear, saying, "A public performance in this cold weather? My wife almost got you killed!" He then turned to Shao Yuhan, his tone icy: "You are the dean? The lethality and destructive power are simply astonishing!"
I am the dean. Whatever conditions you have, just say them. There is nothing I cannot agree to. Xing Kelei replied promptly and decisively, his gaze landing on Mi Ya's pitiful appearance, and in his heart, he wished he could kill the man who had kidnapped her a hundred times.
Xing Kelei asked in confusion, "What about the leaders of your institute? Are they dead after such a major incident?"
The strong and powerful hands restrained Mi Na, and the man screamed in despair: "What surgery are you still performing? If you continue, her life will be lost. I won't speak to you; call your hospital leaders, have them come!"
Mi Ka instinctively struggled to break free from the man's grip, but her strength was insufficient to match his. In the midst of the pushing and shoving, she unknowingly tripped over something at her feet, and in a moment of staggering, her entire weight suddenly leaned against the other person, causing the man's movements to be hindered, and both of them fell towards the rooftop below.
Continuing to gently pat Mi Na's back with his hand, Xing Kelei squinted his eyes and stared directly into Shao Yuhan's eyes
The young nurse, upon seeing her relative in olive green, a member of the People's Liberation Army, anxiously replied: "hetushu.com. It's not a robbery, it's a suicide! It seems that an orthopedic intern has also been taken hostage..."
He Yayan's expression was anxious: "The director is currently undergoing heart bypass surgery"
"Did you hear that? I am the dean." As he saw the man dragging Mi Ya towards the edge of the rooftop, Xing Kelei's eyes filled with a surge of anger. He spoke in a cold, measured tone, enunciating each word: "Speak plainly! What are the conditions? State them!"
"Are you the dean?" The man stood behind Mi Na, looking at Xing Ke Lei with a gaze filled with fear and skepticism: "Don't lie to me, otherwise I will jump down with her, I really will jump!"
Staring at Xing Kelei's handsome face, the man hoarsely confirmed: "Who are you? Can you make decisions?"
"As soon as he finishes setting up over there, this side will collapse." With a glance, he signaled He Yayan to step back. Xing Kelei advanced slowly without alarming the other party: "I am the leader of the institute, speak up, what do you want?"
Uncomprehending, Xing Kelei turned around upon hearing the noise. After noticing the commotion outside, he furrowed his brows tightly, as if sensing something intuitively. Reflexively, he took out his phone and pressed the shortcut key to call Mi Na, while simultaneously grabbing the arm of a passing nurse and asking, "What is going on? Is there a robbery?"
He Yayan stared at the man, fearing that she might miss even the slightest change in his expression, and attempted to persuade him: "We will address the issue of responsibility later; I assure you that I will provide a fair judgment on who is right and who is wrong. What is most urgent now is to treat her. What she needs most is for you to be by her side, as she requires a second surgery..."
Xing Kelei was already prepared to pounce at any moment. Seeing this situation, he could no longer consider anything else, swiftly turning his body and charging forward with great speed. At the same time, Shao Yuhan also rushed over, attempting to grab the man and Mi Na. Following closely behind were several department heads and He Yayan from hetushucom.com.
Ah—suddenly, terrified screams echoed from upstairs and downstairs, and some even covered their eyes, unable to look any further
Here, Mi Na was finally startled back to her senses by Xing Kelei's confident shout, and she cried out with a "Wow." Upon hearing her cry, Xing Kelei's expression instantly softened, and he held the delicate girl close to his chest, the warmest place, gently soothing her with kind words in her ear
As Xing Kelei stepped into the hall, the outside of the hospital erupted in commotion. Fire trucks and police cars arrived in succession, and the crowd of onlookers was kept behind the cordon, with everyone's gaze unconsciously converging on the rooftop of the seventh floor
The scene was filled with gasps as the man seemed to be going crazy and was about to take action
As Deng Heyan brought the water, she saw the tall figure of Xing Kelei squatting in front of Mi Ya, gently wiping her tears with his fingertip while softly coaxing her like a child, saying: "You look like a little stray cat, with snot and tears all over me. Now I’ll have to wash my clothes. Alright, stop crying. Where could I let anything happen to you? Don’t be afraid, come on, give your uncle a smile..."
"You want evidence, right? I'll give it to you, so listen carefully." Xing Kelei took out his phone and activated the recording function: "I swear in the name of the director of the Army Hospital that I will treat your wife free of charge, waiving all medical expenses until her recovery. Is that acceptable?" As he watched Mi Na being forced closer to the edge of the rooftop by the man, a fierce look filled his eyes, and his tone suddenly turned cold and harsh: "You better stand still! Is that acceptable?" As he watched Mi Na being forced closer to the edge of the rooftop by the man, a fierce look filled his eyes, and his tone suddenly turned cold and harsh: "You better stand still!"
It is evident that these words have provoked the man. Accompanied by a scream from Mi Na, he, on the verge of emotional collapse, leaned closer to the edge of the rooftop: "You just don't want to take responsibility! I spent so much money, and not only did you fail to cure her, but you also allowed her to develop complications. Are you doctors or executioners? ... You group of murderers, you owe me my wife's life ..." I spent so much money, and not only did you fail to cure her, but you also allowed her to develop complications. Are you doctors or executioners? ... You group of murderers, you owe me my wife's life ..."
In the tense standoff, Pu Bo furiously accused, "Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have..." but was interrupted as Shao Yuhan pushed him aside with an arm.
He extended his arm to block the people behind him from pushing forward, and He Yayan earnestly advised the emotionally unstable family member of the patient not far away: "Calm down and think about it, your wife is still lying in bed waiting for you to come home and take care of her. What you are doing not only fails to solve the problem, but instead..."
"Shut up!" a cold male voice scolded, "Do you have no heart? Is this the time to provoke him?" In the midst of his words, Xing Kelei had already hurriedly walked up to stand beside He Yayan, his sharp gaze locking onto the person who had kidnapped Mi Ya.
Jumping off a building? The ringtone of the phone rang completely but no one answered. Xing Kelei had a bad premonition, especially upon hearing the keywords "orthopedics" and "intern doctor," which were related to Mi Na. His gaze instantly turned colder: "Filming a movie!" Before the words had left his mouth, he had already hurriedly made his way to the top floor.
As the crowd dispersed, Xing Kelei carried Mi Na back to He Yayan's office. He intended to pour her a cup of water to warm his hands and calm her down, but Mi Na simply clung to the hem of his military uniform and would not let go. He had no choice but to seek help from He Yayan: "Sister-in-law, I trouble you."
He Yayan's face turned pale, and she quickly echoed: "He is the dean, he is!"
Perhaps it was the military uniform of Xing Kelei that commanded respect, or perhaps it was the weight of his voice, laced with suppressed anger. The man swallowed hard and said, "Alright, since you are the director, I will speak with you. Your hospital has harmed my wife, and I demand compensation."
Then the scene suddenly became chaotic. The man, who had initially calmed down, realized that he had been deceived by Xing Kelei, and his emotions became uncontrollable as he shouted: "You scammers from https://www.hetushu.com, you don't want to take responsibility at all, you don't want to save my wife..." while pulling Mi Ya and pretending to jump down.
In Mi Ka's moist eyes, tears were brewing, yet she was desperately holding them back from falling. Her body, under the man's control, was stiffly struggling and evading his touch.
"How can I stay calm? My wife has become like this because of you all, quack! You are going to kill her..." The man standing in the dangerous area of the rooftop is wearing a light gray cotton jacket, his hair appears unkempt and long, and his twisted and grim expression reflects his anger, showing signs of hysteria.
At this moment, in the operating room on the fourth floor of Building D, the specialized cardiac team led by Shao Yuhan is nearing the end of a complex heart surgery, while a group of doctors and nurses has gathered on the rooftop
Mi Ka seemed to have lost her ability to speak, her gaze appearing to rest on Xing Kelei's face, which was so close, yet upon closer inspection, it was vacant and unfocused. Realizing that she was terrified, Xing Kelei pulled her into his embrace, wrapping his arms around her, and softly whispered in her ear to soothe her, "It's alright now, I'm here, don't be afraid, touching the fur won't scare you..."
The man's nerves were tightly wound, and after being somewhat swayed by Xing Kelei, he appeared a bit indecisive. At that moment, Shao Yuhan, still in his surgical gown, hurriedly arrived at the rooftop upon hearing the news. The doctors, upon seeing him, all stepped aside, collectively expressing a sense of relief: "Director!"
Seeing her dazed and unresponsive for a long time, with lingering fear, Xing Kelei supported his body with his right hand to avoid pressing down on her, and reached out with his left hand to gently pat her pale little face: "Are you back to your senses, little girl? Hey!"
The man's expression suddenly changed dramatically, and he shouted at the top of his lungs: "I don't believe you agreed so readily; write it down in black and white for me, do it now!"
What is meant by a quack doctor? You should be responsible for your own words and actions! Regarding your wife's condition, the hospital did not agree to her discharge at all; you took her away without a word, and now that something has happened, you come back... A young doctor's words had not yet finished when another, in a state of urgency, interjected: "The condition can change dramatically; why should we bear all the responsibility? Moreover, our hospital has not even pursued the medical fees you owe, and you actually still..."
Xing Kelei wished he could give him two kicks, but had to suppress his anger: "Complications are not terminal illnesses, who says there is no hope? However," he paused and gently reminded, "if you jump down, it will be hard to say what will happen, so everything depends on you. Weigh it carefully, whether to jump or not!"
The man was stopped by him and hesitantly asked, "Is what you said true? Can my wife still be saved? Are you treating her for free?" It was evident that his mental state had already deteriorated, at the very least, his mind was unclear
Confirming that Mi Na is safe and sound, Shao Yuhan visibly breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze swept over Xing Kelei's arm around her shoulder, his expression shifting from fervent to indifferent. Standing face to face with Xing Kelei, he fell into an ambiguous silence.
Mi Ka was completely stunned; the moment her body tilted downward, her brain lost all functionality
Compensation, is it? No problem, any amount will do. Isn't it just for treating your wife? The doctor and the expenses will be fully covered by the Army Hospital. To avoid startling him, Xing Kelei's voice sounded slow and deep, yet his enunciation became increasingly emphatic: "Human life is at stake, I advise you to be cautious and not to do anything foolish"
The events unfolded too quickly for Mi Ka to have any chance to react; she was left in a mechanical daze, unsure of what to do. Just when she thought she would "jump off the building," her wrist was suddenly seized by a force. The moment she broke free from the man's control, her slender waist was immediately embraced, and then, protected by a male body, she fell to the rooftop floor due to inertia.
