The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 274: Dongfang Yu is critically ill 1

The depth of the night had set in.

Hai Xiaotang did not check out of the hospital but stayed in.

She lay uneasily in her sickbed.

In her semi-conscious state, she seemed to feel Dongfang Yu watching her at her bedside, stroking her…

Hai Xiaotang tried to reach out to touch him, but in an instant, she found herself clutching at thin air, and she was back to reality!

Seeing the darkness around her, she realized she had been dreaming.

Thinking about Dongfang Yu, Hai Xiaotang couldn’t go back to sleep. She decided to go visit him.

Before reaching his ICU room, Hai Xiaotang suddenly heard the sound of the alarm going off.

A group of doctors and nurses dashed past her!

Hai Xiaotang froze. Recognizing the direction they were running to, her face turned pale, and she had a dreadful working.

As she rushed over, through the glass window, she watched, shocked, at the doctors performing resuscitation on Dongfang Yu in the room!

Hai Xiaotang grabbed a nurse, urgently asking, “What happened to Dongfang Yu? What’s going on?!”

“The patient has taken a sudden turn for the worse, and we’re trying to resuscitate him!”

“How can he suddenly be in a critical condition?”

“We’re not sure yet…” The nurse answered casually before hurrying off.

Hai Xiaotang then looked back into the room.

A group of doctors executed resuscitation on Dongfang Yu, and in the monitor beside the bed, his heartbeat slowed down more and more…

Hai Xiaotang stared wide-eyed in disbelief. How could this happen?

Dongfang Yu was supposed to be okay, how did he suddenly become like this…

Hai Xiaotang’s hand clutched at her chest, feeling like she couldn’t breathe, her mind buzzing and blank.

Soon, Dongfang Yu’s parents rushed over after hearing the news.

Dongfang Yu had already been taken into the emergency room…

Despite the countless words exchanged between Dongfang Yu’s parents and the doctors, Hai Xiaotang didn’t hear any of it.

She stood nervously at the door of the emergency room, as if the whole world had abandoned her.

Before long, the break of dawn seemed to have come.

He Meilian unexpectedly held onto Hai Xiaotang’s arm.

“Xiaotang, Yuyu’s condition seems to have stabilized temporarily, but the doctors say the situation is still very critical. We’ve contacted specialists overseas and plan to send him over now.”

Hai Xiaotang was stunned for a moment before she fully comprehended what she was saying.

Without thinking, she blurted, “I’ll go too. Let me go with him…”

“Is your name Hai Xiaotang?” Before He Meilian could respond, two officers approached her, flashing their badges.

Hai Xiaotang froze in place, confusion written all over her face.

One of the officers said, “Concerning the accident with the orphanage’s architectural project, we need you to come with us to assist in the investigation. If you please.”

Hai Xiaotang’s eyes widened – she had a sense that she’s lost all control and everything has spiraled beyond her imagination.

Dongfang Yu was taken away.

Hai Xiaotang sat in the police station, but her heart seemed to have gone with Dongfang Yu.

She was very worried about him and clueless about his current condition.

She wasn’t sure if he could be saved once he was overseas.

She should’ve gone with him; she shouldn’t have let him go alone.

But she couldn’t. She had to cooperate with the investigation…

“Hai Xiaotang, were you the chief architect for this project?”

It wasn’t until the patience-wearing officer asked for the third time that Hai Xiaotang snapped back to reality.

She hesitated before answering, “No… I mean, yes, I was. But I wasn’t part of it, I just drew the general appearance…”

By the time Hai Xiaotang left the police station, it was already noon.

The driver from the Hai Family spotted her and hurried forward, “Miss, are you alright?”
