Chapter 9 A Silver Lining
Chong Tiange's hands were shaking violently and his body was covered in blood. Along the way, he didn't even know how he drove the car to the nearest hospital.
Before the car came to a complete stop, he stumbled open the door and picked up Ye Yingning, who was lying on the passenger seat.
She was already in a semi-conscious state, and the blood stains outside her eye sockets dried up and stuck near her eyelids. Because of the pain, her forehead was covered in cold sweat, which dried up and secreted a new layer, and her cheeks were already covered in sweat.
"Emergency! Doctor! I'm looking for the doctor!"
Chong Tiange hugged Ye Yingning and ran towards the emergency building. As soon as he entered, he yelled crazily and almost knocked two nurses who rushed over after hearing the news away.
"Glass shards stung my eye, my left eye. Quick, call a doctor!"
Chong Tiange wiped his sweat and put Ye Yingning on the treatment bed in the emergency room. The injured arm was completely paralyzed and hanging limply by his side. He was roaring because of excessive blood loss.
At that moment, my eyesight turned black and my whole body was shaking.
"I know, I know. You go out first. It's not convenient for us to clean the patient's wounds while standing here."
A nurse hurriedly pushed him out, but Chong Tiange didn't move at all until he saw two doctors-looking people rushing over. His spirit relaxed a little, and his body suddenly fell to the ground.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? There's someone here. He also has a wound on his hand. It's a gunshot wound..."
A burst of shouts and noisy footsteps immediately sounded in his ears, and the light above his head gradually became blurred, like a white halo. Chong Tiange was unwilling to faint and he desperately wanted to open his eyes wide.
With both eyes, he wanted to turn his head to look at Ye Yingning not far away. However, no matter how hard he tried, the fog in front of him gradually expanded and enveloped him.
A wave of exhaustion ran through his body, and his chapped lips moved a few times before finally closing his eyes.
The two people were pushed into different operating rooms almost at the same time. Each operation lasted several hours. One was to remove the glass fragments from the eye, and the other was to remove the bullet from the arm.
At the same time, Gu Mocun, who narrowly escaped with his life, also rushed to another hospital. He was shot in the abdomen and had to take out the bullet in time. However, relatively speaking, his situation was slightly more optimistic, because after being shot,
He went to the hospital immediately and lost little blood.
But the condition of Chong Tiange is worrying. Although he was shot in the arm, which is not a fatal part, he was delayed for a long time after being shot. In addition, he ran for hundreds of years while holding Ye Yingning.
rice, repeatedly cracking the wound, causing excessive bleeding.
Two hours after his operation ended, Ye Yingning was pushed out of the operating room by the doctor.
After hearing the news, Victoria, Du Yuxiao and others had been waiting outside the door. When they saw the doctor, they both surrounded him.
"Thank God, we were able to save her eyeball in the end. If it had been positioned further and damaged the macular area, the situation might have been even worse. At first, several of us thought we had to remove the eyeball."
The doctor took off his mask, wiped the sweat from his face, and said this.
When they heard that there was no need to remove their eyeballs, Victoria and Du Yuxiao both breathed a sigh of relief and looked happy.
"However," the doctor changed the subject, which immediately made the two people's hearts rise again, "after all, the patient is still young and female, so we try to save her eyeballs as much as possible. However, it is difficult to say in the next few days
The patient will definitely not be blind. Once she loses vision in this eye, the eyeball itself will become diseased or atrophic, and the possibility of retinal detachment will be greatly increased. In the end, it may have to be removed..."
After the doctor finished speaking, he nodded slightly to the two of them, called the nurse beside him, gave some instructions on what to pay attention to in the next few hours, and then walked towards the office.
Victoria and Du Yuxiao, who stayed where they were, looked at each other with deep sadness in their eyes.
The two of them discussed it for a long time, but neither of them knew whether they should tell the truth about the result to Chong Tiange, who had also just had the operation.
In the end, they were helpless because they knew his personality too well. If they didn't tell the truth, the most likely consequence would be that he would pick off the needle on the back of his hand and get out of bed directly to ask the doctor.
Sure enough, after Chong Tiange woke up, the first thing he asked was how Ying Ning's eyes were.
Victoria paused. Although she knew she couldn't hide anything, she still didn't know how to speak. She glanced at Du Yuxiao beside her guiltily. The latter gave her a "Come on, I'll be silent" expression, and immediately smiled slightly.
Lowered his head.
"Speak! Are you mute or am I deaf? Speak clearly!"
Chong Tiange, who had never been angry with Victoria, became angry when she saw her not speaking for a long time, and pretended to sit up from the hospital bed.
"Don't move! I said, I said..."
Victoria was scared to death, fearing that he would break the newly sutured wound again, so she quickly stepped forward to stabilize him. Then, she repeated to Chong Tiange what the doctor said before.
After listening, he remained silent for a long time.
If Ye Yingning is really missing an eye, then nothing he does for the rest of his life will be of any use.
Chong Tiange pounded the side of the bed hard, letting the intravenous drip tube in his hand keep shaking, and the needle almost poked out from the back of his hand. Victoria rushed over and held down his shoulders, and Du Yuxiao also hurriedly stepped forward,
He kept whispering persuasion.
"Is she awake?"
He didn't care at all and didn't seem to feel any pain. He just asked with a numb face.
Victoria shook her head and went to the nurse to ask for a wheelchair. She knew that Chong Tiange would not be willing to do anything until she saw Ye Yingning with her own eyes.
Soon, they pushed Chong Tiange into a ward next door. Ye Yingning's anesthesia had not completely worn off yet. She was still asleep, lying calmly on the bed. On the white gauze on her face, she could still faintly feel...
A trace of crimson blood could be seen.
"You guys go out first. I'll sit here for a while. When she wakes up, I don't want to be without her."
Chong Tiange's face was still pale, and he couldn't stop feeling dizzy when he spoke. But at this time, he couldn't lie on the bed with peace of mind. Without seeing her, his heart couldn't be settled.
Come down.
"Okay, wait a while after this bottle of medicine is finished, and I'll call the nurse over."
Victoria raised her head, looked at the infusion bottle above his head, and made sure that the infusion would last for a while. She also helped him cover his legs with a thin blanket, and then left with Du Yuxiao.
"By the way, help me take good care of Xuanxuan these days. Don't let him know, otherwise he will be frightened."
Before leaving the house, Chong Tiange gave another warning.
Recently, because he was busy dealing with Gu Mocun, he had not been able to spare time to see Chong Jingxuan for many days. The little guy felt extremely wronged. Every time he called, he only asked two questions: when will his mother come to visit?
When will my father come to see me? Hearing that pitiful tone really makes my heart hurt.
When I thought about it, if one day in the future, Ye Yingning really lost her sight and completely removed the damaged eyeball, even if she went abroad to install a prosthesis in the future, how would she see her child grow up with her own eyes...
Chong Tiange was so angry that he pulled his hair frantically. He had never been so desperate.
He really wanted her to wake up as soon as possible, but he was also very afraid of her waking up.
If she really couldn't see after she woke up and took off the gauze, then how should he face such a terrible and cruel fact...
I don't know how long it took, but Chong Tiange heard Ye Yingning's painful low moan coming from the bedside in front of him.
He knew that the effects of the anesthetic had worn off, and the eyes were one of the most sensitive organs in the human body, with countless nerves densely distributed there. It must have been that Ye Yingning was in terrible pain at this moment.
Chong Tiange quickly moved the wheelchair closer to the bedside, and used his good hand to hold down Ye Yingning's hand to prevent her from touching his eyes.
"I'm...don't touch it with your hands...obey me, and if the pain is unbearable, just pinch my hand with your hands."
He is a grown man and has almost never shed tears. But at this moment, Chong Tiange wanted to cry very much, but he could only hold it back.
He knew he couldn't fall.
At this moment, if he falls, who can she and Xuanxuan rely on?
Ye Yingning seemed to have heard Chong Tiange's words. After struggling a few times, she was still obediently. In fact, she was not completely awake, but as the anesthetic wore off, she felt pain, so she fell into a coma.
I couldn't sleep soundly even during it.
A few more hours later, Chong Tiange had finished injecting all five bottles of potions today, and Ye Yingning finally woke up.
She struggled to make a sound, and her first sentence was, why don't you turn on the lights? It's so dark.
It's so dark, she repeated again, with a hint of impatience in her tone.
After a few more seconds, she probably finally recalled what happened before she fell into coma, and she suddenly fell silent and stopped talking.
"Ying Ning, your eyes are fine, don't be afraid. But it will take a few days to heal."
Chong Tiange said as much as possible against his will, but in fact, he was not sure whether her eyes would really be fine.
The doctor said that the situation needs to be further monitored. Even if everything is fine now, no one can guarantee that everything will be fine in a week, a month, or a year.
The eyeball is an extremely fragile organ. Once damaged, various complications will occur, and in severe cases, it may even cause necrosis.
Once it is really necrotic, they have no other choice but to remove it.
"Really? Don't lie to me."
After a while, she finally had a reaction and asked with a choked voice.
Chong Tiange held her hand, gently held her in his arms, and said firmly: "Believe me, nothing will happen."
