Chapter 133: Cannot Compare to a Two-Way Rush!
"How could she be injured?"
"She went out to investigate a case with Captain Wu and happened to run into the criminal suspect. The suspect tried to escape and was hiding a homemade zip gun on his person. Although Captain Wu shot and killed the suspect in time, both of them were injured during the struggle with the suspect."
"Is it serious?"
"I'm not sure either; I'm on my way to the hospital right now."
"I'm rushing over now! By the way, about when did this happen?"
Liu Fang was stunned by the question, "It should have been half an hour ago!"
"See you later!"
The reason Tang Ye asked for the time was to confirm whether it had any connection to the car accident he had almost been in not long ago!
Although he usually drove fast, he would never get into an accident. Could it be that something in the dark was hinting to him that something had gone wrong with the people around him?
Tang Ye forgot his vow to drive slowly and pushed the car's speed to the limit, while images of his time with Du Xi constantly appeared in his mind.
He did not know when it started, but Du Xi had already moved into his heart.
She was lively and cheerful, confident and generous, brave and resilient, and possessed a sincere heart.
She never hesitated to express her affection for him in front of others.
She would also silently take the bus to secretly visit him when he needed company, only to suddenly encounter a blizzard, walk several miles with great difficulty, and subsequently fall ill.
Before, Tang Ye had never made up his mind because he knew his top priority was to achieve success in his work; only with a stable career could he have the initiative.
However, at this moment, he realized that a career could be obtained through hard work and struggle, but if love was missed, it would be a lifelong regret.
Tang Ye arrived at the emergency room, where Liu Fang was squatting in the corner, covering her face and weeping silently.
She saw Tang Ye appear and slowly stood up.
Tang Ye rushed over and pressed his hands onto Liu Fang's shoulders, "Du Xi, how is she now?"
"Du Xi, she... Tang Ye, calm down!"
Tang Ye stepped back two paces, his face deathly pale, looking at Liu Fang in disbelief.
Why did he need to calm down?
Could it be?
"Tang Ye!"
A crisp voice came from behind him.
Tang Ye hurriedly turned around and saw Du Xi standing not far behind him in a blue and white hospital gown, looking at him with a face full of surprise.
Du Xi's arm was wrapped in a bandage, and there were traces of blood seeping through; her lips were pale and her complexion haggard, but the moment she saw Tang Ye, a glimmer of light appeared in her otherwise dim eyes.
Tang Ye realized he had misunderstood Liu Fang.
His emotions had been too agitated, and he had thrown away the composure he should have had!
Du Xi was not inside the emergency room; although she was injured, it was not that serious.
At this moment, Tang Ye had only Du Xi in his eyes and heart!
He walked firmly toward Du Xi.
He cupped Du Xi's face and looked her over carefully from top to bottom, "Good. I thought you..."
Du Xi discovered that there was actually moisture shimmering in Tang Ye's clear eyes.
Her previously gloomy mood was like sunlight breaking through thick clouds.
"I'm fine. However, Master's situation is not optimistic; he was shot in the chest. If it weren't for him relying on his willpower and using his last bit of strength to shoot the criminal dead, I probably would never have seen you again."
Tang Ye gently hugged Du Xi, slowly pulling her into his embrace.
A person's mindset is just like this; only after losing something do they know how to cherish it.
Fortunately, it was just a misunderstanding, and he had not lost Du Xi.
From this, he also knew the importance of Du Xi in his heart.
He would no longer hesitate!
A crisp coughing sound came from the side.
Only then did Tang Ye realize Xiao Qin was nearby and hurriedly pulled back his hands.
"Little Tang, Xi Xi has injuries on her; don't touch her wounds."
"I'm sorry, Auntie. I was too reckless."
"It's fine! You rushed over the moment you heard, which really touched me. I have no objections to you and Xi Xi dating. Get along well in the future."
In Xiao Qin's view, she had been the obstacle preventing Tang Ye and Du Xi from being together.
The scene just now, where Tang Ye ignored everyone and ran toward Du Xi without hesitation, had moved Xiao Qin deeply.
Since the two children truly loved each other, she should be giving them her blessing.
A flush of pink appeared on Du Xi's face, which had been pale from blood loss.
What did that hug from Tang Ye just now mean?
Du Xi still dared not be certain.
At this moment, she felt her palm tighten; Tang Ye had grabbed her fingertips.
A warm current flowed from his solid palm.
Du Xi was very certain: he liked her!
While waiting at the entrance for the results of Captain Wu's emergency treatment, Tang Ye called Tang Yu.
Tang Yu understood the situation in the operating room and told Tang Ye that the condition was within a controllable range.
Tang Ye told Du Xi, and she let out a sigh of relief.
Not knowing how much time had passed, the door to the emergency room finally opened.
The lead surgeon walked out, looking slightly weary.
Du Xi hurried up to meet them.
"Doctor, how is my master?"
"The patient is quite lucky; the bullet passed through the chest but missed all vital organs. However, the injury to the leg is more serious than expected and will lead to difficulty in movement. The patient has already been transferred to the Intensive Care Unit for observation and will be moved to a general ward in forty-eight hours."
Upon learning that Captain Wu's life was not in danger, Du Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Ye was also secretly pleased; otherwise, this would have caused Du Xi a psychological trauma that would be difficult to heal.
Although Du Xi's injuries were not as severe as Captain Wu's, she still needed to be hospitalized for treatment.
After returning to the ward, Liu Fang leaned into Du Xi's ear and whispered something, causing Du Xi to show a shy and bashful expression.
Just as Tang Ye wanted to ask what the two were whispering about.
The ward door was pushed open, and Hu Zhongping walked in carrying a fruit basket.
Seeing that Tang Ye was also there, his expression darkened instantly; how was he a step ahead again?
"I heard you were injured, so I hurried over to see you. How are you now? I have a friend who works at this hospital; let me see if I can help you find the best doctor."
"No need, I'm not seriously hurt!" Du Xi stole a glance at Tang Ye, worried that Tang Ye might be displeased.
She thought to herself, she had already given Hu Zhongping a clear answer, so why was he still unwilling to give up?
Xiao Qin waved at Hu Zhongping, "Come out with me, I have a few words to say to you."
Hu Zhongping followed Xiao Qin outside the ward.
"Little Hu, I know you like Xi Xi, but Du Xi and Tang Ye are already together, so I think you should give up. Auntie can introduce other girls to you. Your circumstances are so good, you will definitely be able to find someone more suitable than Xi Xi."
"Auntie, my feelings for Du Xi are sincere, I still want to..."
"Little Hu, Auntie had a good impression of you before. But if you continue to pester her, Auntie will have to deduct points from you!"
Xiao Qin interrupted Hu Zhongping, her tone becoming extremely stern.
Hu Zhongping had not expected Xiao Qin's attitude to be so merciless; the confidence he had worked so hard to build was shattered as if by a giant stone.
He stumbled back two steps, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
Finally, like a defeated stray dog, he turned and left, feeling dejected and heartbroken.
Watching Hu Zhongping's lonely figure, Xiao Qin sighed inwardly.
Love is not humble, it is not cautious, and it is not one-sided pandering.
No matter how passionate a deep affection may be, it cannot compare to a mutual pursuit!
Having sent away the eyesore, Xiao Qin walked to the ward door and waved at Tang Ye, "Little Tang, come out for a moment!"
Seeing Xiao Qin's serious expression, Tang Ye felt a strange tightening in his heart!
Xiao Qin struggled with complex thoughts internally!
She still decided to put Tang Ye through one final test.
She recited silently in her heart.
Little Tang, you must answer this question well; if the answer is right, I will accept you as my good son-in-law! "Officially launching tomorrow, thanks to many people for staying with me all this time. Whether I can go further depends on the results; a pack of cigarettes for the pipe every month. The pipe will provide you with plenty of emotional value. After the launch, I will write well and update frequently! Everyone guess, how many chapters will there be tomorrow? What progress will there be in the mutual pursuit between Du Xi and Tang Ye tomorrow?"
