My newlywed husband is infertile, but I’m pregnant
Chapter 194 He came and she flinched
Huo Xingzhou didn't notice his little thoughts until the two of them walked outside the private hospital.
Old Chen drove the Rolls-Royce to the door. Huo Xingzhou got into the car and gave instructions.
"Old Chen, go to the clinic."
Next to him was the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall packaged from the Jinling Hotel last night, which was already cold.
Lao Chen sat in the driver's seat, his palms sweating and said, "Master, have you seen today's local news?"
When he was bored and scrolling through his phone, he was almost frightened to death when he saw that piece of news. So I called the relevant departments to confirm, and it turned out to be true!
"What news?"
Huo Xingzhou asked with a frown.
His thin lips were bloodless, and his expression was distant and cold, making him look even more inhuman.
"There was a fire in the clinic."
Old Chen said cautiously, "There was a fire in Madam Young Madam's clinic yesterday. The news reported that one person was injured and one died. I called Madam Young Madam, but no one has answered the call yet."
Huo Xingzhou's pupils tightened, and his heart suddenly throbbed.
Last night, without him knowing, how much wrong had Qiao Xi suffered?
One dead, one wounded.
Is Qiao Xi also on that list?
Is she injured, or...
Huo Xingzhou was distraught and hated Xu Xingluo even more.
He took out his cell phone, his fingers trembling slightly as he dialed, and typed Qiao Xi's number.
There was a busy tone.
No one picked up.
He clicked on the call history and saw a landline number, and made eleven calls in a row.
Huo Xingzhou's heart seemed to be entangled with sharp and fine threads, gradually tightening and squeezing, becoming embedded in his flesh and blood. He called the landline number back.
The other party picked up: "Hello, Haicheng People's Hospital Emergency Center."
This phone number is really from the hospital.
Was it Qiao Xi who called him eleven times last night?
When no one answers.
How desperate must she be?
In the entire Haicheng, the only person she could rely on was him.
"Excuse me……"
He spoke with a deep hoarse voice and a tight throat.
Huo Xingzhou closed his eyes tightly, unable to formulate those words.
"Hey, are you okay? Are you still there?" After asking a few questions, the nurse desk hung up on the new call.
Huo Xingzhou held the phone tightly.
He almost seemed to be drowned and suffocated by the cold water.
"Old Chen, go to Haicheng People's Hospital." He spoke softly, his eyes filled with red bloodshot eyes.
"Yes, sir."
Lao Chen stepped on the accelerator and increased his speed. He took a shortcut and drove directly to the hospital.
The car stopped at the entrance of Haicheng City Hospital. Old Chen said: "Master, those are the wife and the young lady. They are here too."
Du Juan held Huo Sijiao's hand and walked inside in a hurry.
Huo Xingzhou said calmly: "You go and park the car first."
He opened the door and got out of the car, following the mother and daughter from a distance. Their goal was clear, they went straight to the inpatient building.
Du Juan looked anxious and complained: "At this time, I don't know where your brother is? I turned off his phone when I called him in the morning."
Huo Sijiao snorted coldly: "Xu Xingluo also went to the celebration party last night. I heard from dad that my brother was drunk, and they left together. I'm afraid that my brother was confused for a while... and now there is no news."
"Your dad is really irresponsible. How could he let Xu Xingluo get close to your brother? She has many tricks up her sleeves, and she might do something bad. Today she said she was hungover and had a headache, and she didn't even come to the hospital."
"Ah."
Huo Sijiao mocked dissatisfiedly, "I'm afraid my sister-in-law will go crazy if my brother and Xu Xingluo wake up in the same bed today."
"Don't talk nonsense, let's take a look at Qiao Xi first. Her grandma..."
The cuckoo couldn't bear it.
She didn't know how to comfort Qiao Xi.
The two walked to the single ward, opened the door and saw Shu Xue bandaging Qiao Xi's finger.
Qiao Xi's expression was indifferent, her eyes fixed in one place.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and her white arms had a few minor burns. She sat there like a ragdoll that had lost its soul.
The delicate body was made even thinner by the ill-fitting hospital clothes, like fragile porcelain, which made people feel sad just looking at it.
Shu Xue popped the blisters on her fingers one by one, disinfected them and applied medicine.
They say fingers are connected to the heart, but she didn't even frown, as if she didn't feel any pain at all.
Du Juan shouted softly: "Qiao Xi?"
The mother and daughter walked in, Huo Sijiao's eyes were red.
"Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
Qiao Xi slowly turned her head, saw them coming and subconsciously wanted to speak, but her throat hurt. She injured her vocal cords last night and choked on a lot of dust. Now her voice is very ugly.
It's like gravel grinding against your throat.
"You are here."
Four words, she said with difficulty.
"Sister-in-law, your throat... why did it become like this overnight? How could a fire break out in a perfectly good clinic? I couldn't even think of any potential safety hazards in it."
Huo Sijiao knew that the clinic was sent to her by her brother, so he must have done a good job.
This problem cannot occur.
"I...cough..."
Shu Xue stopped Qiao Xi from speaking: "Recuperate well and don't rush to speak. If your vocal cords are not well maintained, there will be sequelae. I will help you pay attention to the results of the fire investigation.
You have to take care of yourself, grandma...she's still waiting for you to take her home! "
As she spoke, tears fell unconsciously.
Shu Xue tried her best to push back the tears: "Qiao Xi, I will accompany you to solve all this."
Qiao Xi nodded slightly.
Du Juan couldn't help wiping her tears, "My child, you take good care of yourself first. We will help you with the rest."
"Sister-in-law, you still have us. We are a family, so don't be polite."
Qiao Xi looked at mother and daughter, twitching the corners of her mouth slightly and revealing a faint smile.
It hurts to laugh.
Huo Sijiao couldn't restrain herself and cried hard in Du Juan's arms.
They all knew what Grandma Qiao's departure meant to Qiao Xi.
"I...it's okay, you guys...go back." Qiao Xi endured the pain of her throat being cut and said word by word.
"Sister-in-law, please stop talking. Sister Shu said you need to maintain your voice, so stop talking!"
Huo Sijiao looked at her aggrievedly, "From now on, if my sister-in-law wants to say anything to us, she can type it out on her mobile phone." She looked down at the gauze wrapped around Qiao Xi's fingers and cried even harder.
"Sister-in-law, you don't need to type anymore. I...I will be the translator for my sister-in-law."
Qiao Xi looked at her, pursed her lips and nodded.
She didn't want to speak, but she forced herself to speak again and again. She habitually showed her strength, but found that her grandma's death had taken away her last armor.
She didn't ask why Huo Xingzhou hadn't shown up yet!
Afraid that the answer would embarrass her even more!
She wanted to pretend to be deaf and hide in her turtle shell, as if nothing had happened.
Pretend you haven't seen those photos from last night.
She no longer had the courage to dig deeper and ask hysterically why he was with Xu Xingluo last night.
Qiao Xi's eyelashes closed and her peripheral vision caught sight of the tall man standing at the door of the ward.
His stern face was hidden in the flickering light, like a ray of light that invaded her line of sight with a shadow.
