Chapter 375 I'm fine, just a little hungry.
However, before he could finish speaking, Li Xiangyang's body swayed involuntarily, and his face turned pale.
"How could you be alright?" The woman rushed forward to support the swaying Li Xiangyang, tears welling up in her eyes again. "It's all because of me...it's all my fault!"
Li Xiangyang steadied himself and asked softly, "What's your name?"
The woman paused, then wiped away her tears: "Lin Yuqing."
“Lin Yuqing…” Li Xiangyang repeated, smiling as he said, “A good name. Don’t blame yourself, it’s not your fault. I would have done the same for anyone.”
He had barely finished speaking when another sharp pain struck, causing him to involuntarily bend over and groan, "Ouch...that really hurts..."
"Don't move!" Lin Yuqing immediately became anxious upon seeing this. "Let me check your injuries."
She carefully helped Li Xiangyang sit on the steps by the alley, and then carefully examined his wounds.
Having just been beaten so badly, Li Xiangyang's body was covered in bruises, the most serious being a gash on his head from an iron pipe.
With trembling hands, Lin Yuqing brushed aside Li Xiangyang's hair and saw the gruesome gash from which blood was still flowing, instantly throwing her into a state of utter turmoil.
"What should I do..." she murmured, her voice filled with terror.
Even as a nurse, she couldn't possibly carry medicine with her at all times, nor did she even have a clean cloth.
Even if you want to deal with it...
Thinking of the cloth, Lin Yuqing gritted her teeth, hurriedly tore off her coat, and then bit a corner of her inner garment with her teeth and pulled hard.
With a "ripping" sound, Lin Yuqing tore her undergarment into strips and quickly wrapped them around Li Xiangyang's head, round and round.
"Just bear with it a little longer, it'll be over soon. Don't be afraid, I'm a nurse, I can handle it. What do you do for a living? You're so skilled."
While bandaging his wound, Lin Yuqing chatted with Li Xiangyang to distract him.
"Me?" Li Xiangyang forced a smile, "...a hunter."
"Hunting?" Lin Yuqing looked up in surprise. "No wonder you reacted so quickly. Which village are you from?"
“Xiaoliang Village,” Li Xiangyang replied. “And you?”
"I'm a nurse at the county hospital," Lin Yuqing said, head bowed, continuing to bandage her wound. "It's payday today, who knew something like this would happen."
"It's not that I'm willing to risk my life for money; it's just that it's just my mother and me in my family, and she's in poor health, taking medication year-round..."
"So that's why you risked chasing after him?" Li Xiangyang continued her question.
Lin Yuqing nodded, her eyes filled with stubbornness and determination: "Yes, that's not just my salary, it's my mother's life-saving money..."
Li Xiangyang looked into her eyes and for some reason had a feeling of déjà vu.
This strength and stubbornness reminded him of his younger sister, Li Xiaohua.
"Okay, that's enough for now. We need to get to the hospital as soon as possible."
Despite bandaging the wound, Lin Yuqing was extremely nervous as she watched the fabric being soaked in blood.
Li Xiangyang originally wanted to say a few words of comfort, but just as he was about to get up, he suddenly felt dizzy, his vision went black, and his body fell backward uncontrollably.
"Hey!" Lin Yuqing grabbed him and supported him, her voice filled with worry, "How are you? Hang in there!"
Li Xiangyang barely opened his eyes, his vision already blurry: "Thank you... I'm afraid I'm not going to make it... Don't worry about the hospital, remember to find someone to take them to the law enforcement bureau..."
After speaking weakly, Li Xiangyang pointed to the two robbers on the ground.
"Forget about them! Your safety is more important! Come on, lean on me, let's get to the hospital first."
Ignoring the two robbers, Lin Yuqing helped Li Xiangyang up and hurriedly headed towards the hospital.
At first, Li Xiangyang was able to control himself from putting all his weight on the other person, but soon his legs went weak and his consciousness became increasingly blurred.
"Are the things in your bag still there?" He tried to find something to talk about to clear his head.
Lin Yuqing subconsciously touched her handbag to confirm, "Everything's there. They haven't had time to take anything yet."
"That's good..." Li Xiangyang breathed a sigh of relief, a slight smile playing on his lips. "At least... the beating wasn't for nothing..."
After saying this, his body went completely limp and he fell into darkness.
"Hey! Wake up!" Lin Yuqing anxiously patted Li Xiangyang's cheeks, her voice trembling with tears, "Don't scare me!"
......
After an unknown amount of time, Li Xiangyang felt a sharp pain and slowly opened his eyes.
The first thing I saw was a pristine white ceiling, and the sound of evenly dripping water filled my ears.
He turned his stiff neck and saw himself lying on a hospital bed with an IV tube inserted into the back of his hand.
Night had fallen outside the window, and only a small lamp by the bedside emitted a soft glow in the room.
"You're awake?" a familiar voice called out.
Li Xiangyang turned his head with difficulty and saw Lin Yuqing sitting on a chair by the bed, leaning over him with concern in her eyes.
"How long... have I been unconscious?" Li Xiangyang's voice was extremely hoarse.
"Six hours." Lin Yuqing quickly poured a glass of water, carefully lifted Li Xiangyang's head, and made him drink it. "You were badly injured, you lost a lot of blood, but luckily I met a kind person who got you to the hospital in time. You were badly injured, you needed two stitches in your head..."
Li Xiangyang took a sip of water and felt much better: "Thank you."
"I'm the one who should be saying thank you," Lin Yuqing said softly, her eyes slightly red. "If it weren't for you, I don't even dare to imagine what I would be like now..."
Before she could finish speaking, tears welled up in her eyes.
"Don't cry, I'm fine," Li Xiangyang comforted her, trying to change the subject, "What about the two robbers?"
"They've already been taken away by law enforcement." Lin Yuqing wiped away her tears. "They will pay the price for their actions."
Li Xiangyang nodded, then suddenly remembered something: "Aren't you a nurse? Don't you have to go to work?"
Lin Yuqing smiled slightly: "I work at this hospital. I asked the head doctor for leave and wanted to stay and take care of you."
"Huh?" Li Xiangyang was a little surprised. "There's no need for that. I'm a grown man, I'm not that delicate."
"No, you saved me, it's only right that I take care of you," Lin Yuqing said firmly, her tone leaving no room for argument.
Looking at her stubborn expression, Li Xiangyang suddenly felt a little dazed.
This girl's personality is so much like her sister's.
They were equally stubborn and strong, as if they were carved from the same mold.
Lin Yuqing noticed that Li Xiangyang's eyes were a little strange, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is your wound uncomfortable, or is something wrong?"
Li Xiangyang came to his senses and was momentarily at a loss for words.
He can't exactly say, "I was lost in thought because you look so much like my sister," can he?
The two weren't familiar with each other yet, and saying this would definitely make the other person feel awkward.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiangyang scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's nothing, I'm just a little hungry."
"I'm sorry, it was my oversight."
Hearing Li Xiangyang's words, Lin Yuqing stood up apologetically and picked up a thermos from the bedside table: "I made porridge with red dates and goji berries in it; it's good for replenishing blood."
As she spoke, Lin Yuqing carefully helped Li Xiangyang to his feet and fed him the porridge, saying, "Try it."
Li Xiangyang took a sip, and the taste was surprisingly good: "Mmm, it's really delicious."
"Really?" Lin Yuqing's eyes lit up. "I rarely cook for others..."
As she spoke, her face flushed slightly, and her gaze unconsciously avoided Li Xiangyang's eyes.
