An Accidental Rebirth: The Surrogate Bride - Chapter 119
Zixiu had thought that he would never see that damned pervert again for the rest of his life, but to his surprise, he not only saw Nangong Du, but also saw that ugly shrew, Xingyi! This gave the “pregnant” man an impulse to bite like a dog! With his hands on his hips, he glared at the man and the woman who had taken over his bed with a ferocious look, burning with anger!
Zixiu was actually angry with himself! How come he was so softhearted? He had tried a few times, but knowing that if he did not lend a hand, that asshole and his damned maidservant would definitely die outside, he could not remain an onlooker. He always thought that he was a person who had a grudge against evil and was sure to take revenge on those who once bullied him, but how could he do such a foolish thing as to render good for evil?
“What’s wrong with me?” Zixiu began to mutter again, “It’s the subversion of human nature! It’s totally out of character…”
It went back to the night before. In their conversation with Liuxu, Zixiu learned that he was actually someone’s elder brother, which made him very excited! As Liu Wuyi’s “single” child, he had always longed for a younger sister. Unfortunately, the first time they met, he struck his sister as sloppy and overstuffed! Zixiu did not sleep well at night. Tossing about in bed, he finally came up with an idea to change Liuxu’s impression of him. The first step of his plan was to get up early and run for exercise every day. However, on the first day of his plan, it was ruined by two eye-catching “corpses” in the snow! Damn it! If it weren’t for the damn cold weather, he would have definitely turned a blind eye to what he saw!
“Get some clean water!” Liu Wuyi did not hear his son’s “self-remorse” at all, and he said without even looking up. He was treating the girl’s wound in her arm from a toxic dart. Thick dark blood gushed from the wound as he cut away the black flesh infected with toxins around it bit by bit with a small sharp knife.
He had not operated on anyone for thirteen years and he did not intend to save the girl at the beginning. However, when he found that the poison had entered her heart, but she was still breathing doggedly, he was shocked! The shadow in his heart that made him dare not to use the scalpel to save people again was suddenly dispelled by the indomitable vitality! As if he had suddenly wised up, he picked up his scalpel again.
On the other hand, though Zixiu was still irritated, facing such a bloody scene, he still did dutifully what a “nurse” should do.
He fetched another basin of water soon.
After a while, seeing that his dad was sweating, he wiped it off with a towel.
He then got the tray, the tweezers, some cotton and medicinal powder, the bandage…
As he was up to his neck in work, he suddenly discovered that his dad stopped what he was doing, holding the scalpel in midair!
Zixiu looked at Xingyi’s wound in confusion. The toxic dart had been taken out, but the wound had not been sewed or bandaged yet! When he looked at his dad’s face again, Zixiu suddenly realized that something was wrong!
Next, like his dad, Zixiu went stiff too. He knew himself well—except for a few herbs, he knew nothing about medicine, so it seemed there was no way that he could help his dad to solve the problem.
He suddenly began to regret that he had not stopped his dad from sending Yan Ke and his disciples away the day before. Now he had a mixed feeling in his heart. It would be great if the three physicians from the Valley of Fallen Blossoms were here! When he did not want to see them, they showed up! But when he needed them, they were gone! ‘Xingyi’s life is at stake. What should we do now? What to do…’
“Ah!” When the “temporary nurse” was scratching his head in anxiety, he suddenly came up with an idea! He clapped his hands excitedly. He remembered that his senior brother had been playing a tune outside of the valley to express his love the night before. Though he could not tell how Nangong Du and Xingyi had been injured, he thought Huali and Lingxiao must still be nearby!
“Wait!” Seeing that his son was about to rush out excitedly, Liu Wuyi immediately guessed what he was going to do. He cried out to stop him in a hurry.
Astonished by his dad’s stern shout, Zixiu froze on the spot. A few seconds later, he turned around nervously.
Though Liu Wuyi grew tense, he managed to speak in a calm tone, “Something must have happened outside! Moreover, they can’t help me with this problem!”
“What?” Zixiu could not believe it, but he had to take the implication in his dad’s words seriously. Could it be…
Liu Wuyi lowered his head with a heavy heart. He had the same problem as thirteen years ago. “She lost too much blood!”
‘Huh?’ Zixiu was spinning his mind fast. ‘But… is this a problem?’ he wondered with a confused look and blurted out, “Can’t we give her a blood transfusion?”
“Blood transfusion?” Liu Wuyi stared at his son in astonishment. Why hadn’t he ever thought of this?
