Emergency
She had never seen her sister like this, not since she was a child.
Her sister's personality had always been gentle.
She spoke in soft whispers, never raising her voice, let alone losing her temper.
But today, not only did her sister lose her temper, she even spoke to her in this tone.
A wave of grievance welled up in Qin Bing's heart.
"Sister..."
Her voice was trembling.
"I... I was just worried about you..."
Qin Xue looked at her, her eyes very firm.
"I know you are worried about me."
She paused.
"But Xiaobing."
Her voice was very serious.
"I am no longer a child; I don't need your protection."
She paused again.
"And I know what I am doing."
Qin Bing bit her lip.
"But Sister..."
Qin Xue interrupted her.
"Xiaobing, you should go out; I want some peace and quiet."
Qin Bing was stunned.
"Sister, what did you say?"
Qin Xue looked at her.
"I said, get out."
She paused.
"From now on, my affairs."
She glanced at her mother on the hospital bed.
"And Mom's affairs."
She turned her head to look at Qin Bing.
"Neither of them requires your interference."
Qin Bing froze completely.
She couldn't believe it.
These were words spoken by her sister.
"Sister..."
Tears fell from her eyes.
"How... how could you be like this..."
Qin Xue turned her face away.
"You should leave."
Qin Bing looked at her sister.
An indescribable sense of discomfort welled up in her heart.
She wanted to explain.
She wanted to say that she was only worried about her sister.
She wanted to say that she only wanted to protect her.
But when she saw her sister's stubborn gaze, she suddenly understood.
Her sister now was no longer the same as the sister from before.
The sister from before was gentle, obedient, and never contradicted her.
But the current sister had her own thoughts and her own convictions.
And all of this change started from the moment she met Li Wei.
A wave of anger welled up in Qin Bing's heart.
It's all Li Wei's fault!
If it weren't for him, her sister wouldn't have become like this.
If it weren't for him, she and her sister wouldn't have ended up in this state.
Qin Bing bit her lip.
She wanted to say something, but seeing her sister's expression, she ultimately held back.
She didn't want to pour oil on the fire at this moment.
Qin Bing took a deep breath.
"Fine."
Her voice was very cold.
"I'll leave."
She turned and walked toward the door.
Upon reaching the door, she stopped and looked back at Qin Xue.
"Sister, Li Wei is really not a good person. You had better stay away from him."
Qin Xue did not speak.
Qin Bing pushed the door open and walked out.
The door closed.
In the ward, only Qin Xue was left alone.
Qin Xue stood there, tears flowing uncontrollably.
She walked to the bedside, sat down, and held her mother's hand.
"Mom..."
She choked up.
"Did I do something wrong..."
She paused.
"She is worried about you... and how could I be any different..."
She cried even harder.
"But Mom..."
She looked at her mother.
"I really have no other choice..."
She paused.
"I really just want you to wake up..."
She buried her face in her mother's hand, her shoulders trembling continuously.
Li Wei did not wait for the elevator, but instead walked all the way back to the hospital lobby along the stairs.
He leaned against the wall on the first floor, watching the hustle and bustle of the crowd, and took out his phone, preparing to call Murong Wan.
Just then, his phone suddenly rang.
The screen displayed: Murong Wan.
Li Wei was stunned.
What a coincidence?
He pressed the answer button.
"Hello."
"Mr. Li."
Murong Wan's voice came through, just as usual, no different.
"If it's convenient, could you come to Rose Manor for a visit?"
Li Wei frowned slightly.
Rose Manor was Murong Wan's private clubhouse.
For her to take the initiative to invite him over, it must be related to meeting Lin Tianhao today.
However, it suited his intentions.
Li Wei's lips curled upward.
"Fine, I'll head over now."
On the other end, Murong Wan clearly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you."
She paused.
"I'll wait for you at the manor."
Hanging up the phone, Li Wei was just preparing to leave the hospital.
Suddenly, the hospital's public broadcast system blared.
A sharp alert tone cut through the silence of the lobby.
Immediately following was the calm and urgent voice of the Director of the Emergency Dispatch Office, penetrating every corner of the inpatient department.
"Emergency Notice! Emergency Notice! Attention all departments! A critical condition has occurred at Bed 307 in Pediatrics! The child is approximately six years old, has fallen into a coma after ingesting a large amount of sleeping pills, and is experiencing continuous epileptic seizures with clenched teeth; the risk of suffocation is extremely high! We are now initiating a hospital-wide red emergency response. Immediately notify the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Neurology Department, Anesthesiology Department, Emergency Department, and Respiratory Department physicians for an emergency consultation. You must arrive at Bed 307 in Pediatrics within ten minutes!"
Li Wei was stunned for a moment.
Six years old.
Ingested a large amount of sleeping pills.
How is this situation the same as the child he saved at the abandoned factory last night?
Li Wei's complexion changed instantly.
It couldn't be that I was actually right!
He turned and ran in one direction.
After running a few steps, he realized that he didn't even know where the Pediatrics department was.
Furthermore, he only knew acupuncture and might not necessarily be able to help.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the broadcast sounded again.
"Supplementary Notice! Seeking assistance from an external acupuncture physician for rescue! The child is experiencing continuous epileptic seizures with clenched teeth; the risk of suffocation is extremely high! We urgently need a physician with extensive experience in pediatric emergency acupuncture, specializing in acupuncture to stop spasms and open the orifices to restore consciousness! Those with experience may enter the hospital urgently from the west gate. Outpatient security personnel, please guide them throughout the way and reserve the No. 3 dedicated elevator! Attention all consultation departments, once the physician arrives, take them immediately to the Pediatrics 307 ward!"
Li Wei stopped in his tracks.
Looking for an acupuncture physician?
Damn it.
He actually ran into it.
He couldn't care about so much anymore.
He had to go.
After all, human life is at stake.
He couldn't just watch the child have an accident.
But the problem was, he didn't have a medical license.
Qin Bing had made a big fuss about this just now.
If he went now, in case Qin Bing found out, she would surely bring it up again.
Li Wei hesitated for a few seconds.
Screw it.
Saving a life is more important.
Li Wei rushed to the Nurse's station.
A young Nurse was on the phone with an anxious expression.
Li Wei shouted loudly, "I know acupuncture!"
The Nurse was stunned.
She turned to look at Li Wei and sized him up from head to toe.
Her eyes were full of suspicion because Li Wei looked truly too young.
He looked only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.
How much clinical experience could someone at this age have?
Li Wei saw her suspicion.
He took a deep breath and said, "I am a graduate of Huaxi Medical University."
He paused.
"I studied under the National Medical Master, Professor Chen Yiming."
He continued making it up.
"I have specialized in pediatric emergency acupuncture for ten years."
He looked into the Nurse's eyes.
"I am skilled in acupuncture to stop spasms, open the orifices to restore consciousness, and remove blood stasis to unblock the meridians."
Upon hearing the words "Huaxi Medical University" and "National Medical Master Chen Yiming," the Nurse's expression changed instantly.
Huaxi Medical University was a top-tier medical institution in the country, and Chen Yiming was a legendary figure in the acupuncture field.
If the young man in front of her was truly a disciple of Chen Yiming, then his medical skills would definitely be unquestionable.
She didn't even ask why a disciple of Professor Chen Yiming would be here.
The Nurse hurriedly said, "Please come with me!"
She turned and ran toward the pediatric inpatient department.
Li Wei followed behind, running wildly all the way.
Fortunately, there was an elevator reserved specifically by the hospital.
Two minutes later, Li Wei arrived at the entrance of Pediatrics Ward 307.
Two police officers were standing at the door.
Li Wei's heart sank.
