114: Chapter 114 Emergency Hospital Visit! Ella Takes the Lead in the Crisis

Lin Chen picked up Li Wei and rushed out the door.

Li Wei was limp and unconscious; the gauze on his shoulder was soaked through with blood, sticking to his skin in a shocking display.

Lin Chen's arms were tense, his pace rapid, each step driven by urgency. His usual composure had vanished, replaced entirely by the singular goal of saving his brother.

Chen Xi carried the first-aid kit and Li Wei's personal effects, following closely behind. Though her face was pale, she remained organized, contacting the hospital's emergency department while they ran.

"Brother Chen, I've already notified the emergency center; they will be prepared to receive him!"

Lin Chen didn't look back, his voice hurried yet clear: "Take the fastest route. We can't afford to waste a single minute."

The car sped directly to the nearest Grade-A tertiary hospital. Ten minutes later, as soon as the car came to a halt, Lin Chen carried Li Wei and rushed into the emergency hall. The hospital corridor was bustling with people, noisy and chaotic; the pale lights cast shadows on the floor, creating an oppressive atmosphere.

Doctors and nurses immediately rushed over with a gurney, quickly assessing Li Wei's injuries with furrowed brows.

"Blunt force trauma to the shoulder, suspected fracture, excessive blood loss. Get him into the operating room immediately; prepare for emergency surgery!"

Lin Chen grabbed the attending physician, his gaze urgent and his tone brooking no argument: "Doctor, you must save him! No matter the medication or treatment plan, I will cover all costs—just ensure he comes through safely!"

"We will do our best. Go take care of the admission and surgery paperwork first." With that, the doctor and nurses pushed Li Wei into the operating room.

The red light above the operating room flickered on. Lin Chen stood outside, his fists tightly clenched until his knuckles turned white. His brother had been critically injured and rendered unconscious while protecting him and the office; he would never forget this act of loyalty, and he would certainly not let John, the mastermind, get away with it.

Chen Xi hurried over, clutching the payment receipts, her tone steady: "Brother Chen, I've already covered the surgery and hospitalization fees. The hospital has opened a priority lane, so his treatment won't be delayed."

Lin Chen nodded slightly, his voice hoarse: "Thank you for your hard work, staying here. Notify me immediately if there are any updates."

"Don't worry, I won't leave his side." Chen Xi stood guard at the operating room door, her gaze resolute.

Meanwhile, back at the temporary office, only Ella remained to guard the trading screens.

In the empty room, only the sound of typing and the faint whir of computer fans broke the silence. Ella sat with her back straight, her eyes locked onto the screen, focused to the extreme. With Lin Chen and Chen Xi at the hospital, the heavy burden of guarding the Microsoft holdings and stabilizing the market fell entirely on her shoulders.

She watched the Microsoft stock price on the screen, which was still fluctuating slightly due to earlier errors. Gritting her teeth, she whispered to herself: "No mistakes. Absolutely no more mistakes. I cannot betray Brother Chen's trust, and Li Wei must not have been injured in vain."

The previous panic had been swept away, replaced by a resolute, professional determination. Her fingers flew across the keyboard, utilizing real-time AI data to precisely adjust her trading strategy. She corrected the earlier errors bit by bit, slowly guiding the fluctuating stock price back into a stable range.

Stepping up in a crisis, her professional prowess was on full display; every move was steady, accurate, and decisive, without a hint of hesitation.

Just as Ella was fully focused on stabilizing the market, Lin Chen's phone rang—it was a call from Robert.

Lin Chen walked to a quiet spot in the hospital corridor and answered the call, his tone icy: "Hello."

Robert's voice came through the phone, laced with anger as he diligently reported: "Brother Chen, the interrogation is complete. Those thugs have all confessed; they were indeed sent by John! They admitted that John, resentful over his trading losses, ordered them to trash the office and disrupt operations. Even the assault was sanctioned by John!"

A cold glint flashed in Lin Chen's eyes, his voice as frigid as ice: "Secure all the evidence. Don't let a single one of them go. I will settle this score with John slowly."

"Understood. I've already submitted all statements and physical evidence to the police. John won't be able to escape!" Robert said with certainty.

After hanging up, Lin Chen looked at the red light above the operating room, his aura heavy and oppressive. John had crossed his line this time, and he would never let this go.

Back at the office, Ella let out a long sigh of relief as she pressed the final key. On the screen, the Microsoft stock price had fully stabilized and even ticked slightly upward. The previous risks of volatility were completely eliminated, and the holdings were secure.

She leaned back in her chair, wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, finally feeling at ease—she had not let Lin Chen down.

At the hospital, the operating room door remained tightly shut. Not long after, a nurse hurried out, looking anxious.

"Who is Li Wei's family? The patient has lost too much blood during surgery, and our blood bank is running low. He urgently needs a transfusion. We've checked his blood type; it's Type O. Is there any family member with a matching blood type?"

Lin Chen's heart tightened, and he immediately stepped forward: "I'm Type O. My blood type matches his."

The nurse's eyes lit up: "That's wonderful. Come with me for a blood type verification, and if it's a match, we'll proceed with the donation immediately."

Lin Chen's blood type matched, and he decided to donate blood.
