An Accidental Rebirth: The Surrogate Bride - Chapter 120

People could not survive without blood just like plants could not live without water. The loss of blood could be life-threatening! Usually, after a large amount of blood loss, one would take medicine or food to replenish it. But the blood transfusion…

Liu Wuyi was sure that there was no information about “blood transfusion” in the medical books and historical materials he had ever read.

In other words, “blood transfusion” was a completely new concept for him! At the critical moment when the life of the injured was on the line, could he really resort to this method, which he had never heard of?

After a moment of rational analysis, he found his excitement and hope vanish. The huge psychological loss made him even more depressed and helpless.

Next, the blood-stained small knife slipped out of his hand.

He stared at the dazzling knife in a daze, feeling astonished, frightened and even heartbroken, as if it were not stabbing at the floor, but… at a bloody little body!

Memories suddenly flooded into his mind like a tsunami. He seemed to see a child lying alone in the grave quietly. The owner of the freezing little body would never call him…

“Dad?” Zixiu had called a few times, but heard no response from his dad, which made him grow tense in an instant. How come his dad could not even hold a scalpel! Could it be that even a blood transfusion… would not save Xingyi?

Hearing his son call him, Liu Wuyi finally came back to his senses. He suddenly realized how irresponsible he would be if he gave up halfway! Now that he had picked up the scalpel again, he must be held accountable. Having come up with the idea of a blood transfusion, there was no way they could know if they would succeed until they tried. If they did not do their best, how could they know that the injured had no hope of survival? Even the girl herself did not give up, he could not give up so easily!

“Dad…” After handing the small knife back to his dad, Zixiu was filled with unprecedented persistence. “Is there really no other way?” he asked again.

Liu Wuyi did not say anything, but he held the scalpel firmly and his hand was no longer trembling. He began to think about the possibility of blood transfusion.

Seeing the hope of life, Zixiu reached out his right hand without hesitation. “I can donate mine…”

He suddenly checked his tongue halfway into his words. This impulsive young man finally realized that there were still many details to consider. At least, he should think about what if the blood types did not match.

“Blood type?” Liu Wuyi heard one more new phrase from his son. He had been full of doubts about his son’s behavior, and now he was even more suspicious! However, he was in no mood to see into this for the moment. Now all he wanted to know was what “blood type” was, and what it had to do with blood transfusion.

Indulging in himself, Zixiu did not notice his dad’s inquiring eyes. What if Xingyi’s body rejected his blood? Nangong Du was running a fever, so he could not give blood. Liuxu was pregnant, so they could not ask her to donate blood. As his dad was performing the operation, needless to say, he could not be the blood donator… Did they have any device to test blood type in their house?

“Blood type?” As if a streak of light flashed in his head, after pausing for a moment, he heaved a long sigh of relief. “Oh! I remember my blood type is ‘O’, the universal blood group, so I can donate it to anyone!”

“O”? The universal blood group? Feeling that he did not have enough time to delve into any new terms, Liu Wuyi immediately asked his son the most critical question, “How to transfuse blood?”

“Huh?” Zixiu was puzzled by the question. What was his dad asking? How to transfuse blood?

“A blood transfusion… is to draw blood from a person’s body and transfer it into the injured’s blood vessel…” he answered according to his own understanding. He had never suffered any injury that required a blood transfusion! Besides, as a physician, shouldn’t his dad know better than him about blood transfusion?

“Draw the blood… transfer it into… blood vessel…” Disregarding the way the proposer, his son, looked at him as if he were a monster, Liu Wuyi began to mull over new knowledge, combining with what he had known.

He then asked eagerly, “Which tools can be used here?”

‘What?’ Zixiu was far more than confused. Actually, he was seriously shocked! ‘OMG! Is this some kind of a joke? Or someone has just become a quack? How come dad does not even know what kind of tools can be used?’

“Stop being in a trance!” Liu Wuyi, whose medical arts were questioned, looked serious. Of course, he was not joking. “Let’s focus on treating the injured!”

Yes, saving the life of the injured was the most important thing at this point. They hadn’t a moment to lose!

Though he had not recovered from the shock yet, Zixiu realized that he was about to play an important role in the following process—technical guidance!

Having no time to think that much, Zixiu, who was almost a layman in surgery, rolled up his sleeve and threw himself into the life-saving rescue.
