Chapter 209: Xiaobai in Hospital
“Dabai, I’m okay. It looks terrible, but I can see things. The wound itself is superficial.”
The teacher reproached herself, “It’s my fault. I didn’t keep an eye on them, so things happened.”
Qin Muxuan felt both heartbroken and outrageous. She couldn’t help but complain, “Now things have happened. Why not send him to the hospital first, and then inform me? Will you be held accountable if something bad does happen?”
Hearing that, the teacher lowered her head and dared not say anything.
Qin Muxuan called the hospital immediately, informing the medical workers of the school’s address. Waiting at the present position, she kept an eye on Xiaobai’s wound. Fortunately, Xiaobai’s eyeball didn’t get hurt. Blood oozed out of the skin.
That was the best out of the worst. ‘My son’s so adorable. If his eye is broken, I won’t let them off the hook!’
Four adults walked over with two children who must be the perpetrators.
Qin Muxuan only cared about Qin Xiaobai’s condition. She was not in the mood to negotiate with them.
Those parents kept apologizing to Qin Muxuan and Qin Xiaobai, hiding their kids behind their back.
“It’s our fault. We spoiled our child. Very sorry.”
Qin Muxuan said helplessly, “Sorry, I don’t wanna talk about this right now. I am only concerned about my child’s health. We can discuss that after I get his test results.”
Qin Muxuan struggled to remain calm. The ambulance finally arrived. Qin Xiaobai got in the car with Qin Muxuan. The teacher followed them.
“I’m okay. Don’t worry, mommy.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Qin Xiaobai was sensitive, which caused Qin Muxuan’s heart to ache. However, some people were hostile to such a good boy.
“Sorry, Ms. Qin. I wish I had found out earlier that he was not getting along well with his classmates.”
Qin Muxuan didn’t reply. She knew it was not the teacher’s fault. Others tried to harm Xiaobai. The teacher couldn’t prepare everything and stop everyone.
“I’m okay. No worries.” Qin Xiaobai comforted his teacher.
“Mommy, my eye hurts. Something’s dangling in front of my eye.” Qin Xiaobai took a deep breath.
Qin Muxuan realized that Xiaobai was a tough boy. In the past, even when he fell heavily onto the ground, he would stand up and dust himself off, pretending that nothing had happened.
He was unwilling to worry his mother.
However, Xiaobai spoke out this time. He must suffer a sharp pain.
“Xiaobai, we’ll arrive at the hospital soon. You’re gonna be fine!” Qin Muxuan was flurried, holding back the pain in her heart.
Xiaobai’s injury fazed her. Out of her wits, she held Qin Xiaobai tightly in her arms.
‘Hurry up… Please… Xiaobai can’t wait!’
In the end, they reached the hospital, rushing into the emergency room.
Qin Xiaobai cooperated fully with the doctor. He consoled Qin Muxuan with a smile, “Dabai, I’m already in the hospital. Doctor will cure me. Take it easy.”
‘My dear. His eye hurts, but he still heartens me.’ Thought Qin Muxuan.
“Liu, go to the O. R. We need to take care of him immediately!”
‘O. R.? It sounds serious!’
‘How could this be? Isn’t it a graze? Why does he need an operation?’
Qin Muxuan asked the doctor, “Sorry. Is Xiaobai’s injury serious? How could it be? Isn’t it superficial?”
The doctor said to his colleagues, “Send him to the O. R. I’ll be right there.”
“Got it.”
The doctor sighed, “It seems that Little Master only has a graze, but we find his optic nerves are hurt. A further examination should be conducted!”
“How could it be…”
“Fortunately, you arrived here in time. If you came here later, Little Master’s eye might have been… Alas, I should take care of him. Calm down. I’ve done many such operations. I’m in my element. I will cure him.”
The doctor tried to calm her nerves. Qin Muxuan listened to him, nodding. However, her mind went blank. She said, “Thank you. Please help him. Thank you.”
“Wait.”
Qin Muxuan nodded distractedly as if having a fishbone stuck in her throat.
“The doctor’s professional. Your son’s gonna be fine. Take it easy. I think it’s perfectly okay for kids to fight with each other.”
“I think so. Everyone grows up like that. Our child just overdid when they had fun. We will tell him to be careful.”
‘It’s all right for them.’
‘If Dr. Xu wasn’t an authoritative figure or this hospital didn’t prepare a specific path for Xiaobai, he might have missed the best time for treatment.’
‘Xiaobai’s eye means nothing to them.’
“It’s getting late. This is a thousand dollars. We make compensation for you. My son needs to go back to school for study. We should leave. Hope your son’s operation carries on smoothly.”
“Besides, it’s not completely my son’s fault. Someone must be the real culprit.”
“What do you mean? Don’t throw mud at my son. I’m not afraid of you though you know someone from the Education Bureau!”
Hearing their endless quarrel, Qin Muxuan was helpless. ‘Xiaobai’s the victim, right?’
She constantly checked the time in anxiety. Fifteen minutes passed. However, she felt she had been through a dozen years. Qin Muxuan suffered.
She called Gu Zijin, her fingers trembling. At this time, the person in her mind was him.
“Zijin, Xiaobai gets hurt. He’s in hospital. I don’t know what to do. It seems serious…”
Qin Muxuan could not say anything more. Her words were choked by sobbing.
“What’s wrong?” Noticing she wept, Gu Zijin asked urgently.
Sobbing, she couldn’t make a full sentence. Gu Zijin didn’t continue to ask her, “Stay calm. I’ll be there soon.”
Hearing Gu Zijin’s voice, Qin Muxuan felt the fear in her heart was reduced.
‘Okay, I’ll wait for him.’
“In the private hospital? I’m on my way. Don’t worry. Xiaobai has weathered a lot. He will be fine this time.”
“Okay.”
Although Qin Muxuan understood that Gu Zijin was comforting her, she felt better after hearing his words.
“Will Mr. Gu come here later?”
The teacher who had followed them to the hospital seemed uneasy as if she got cold feet.
