Old Injury - Chapter 57
Song Bai Lao seemed to have completely forgotten his words and deeds after drinking, and when he saw me again, there was no change in his face.
But forget it, forget it, it’s not something worth remembering anyway.
Originally, I felt that my physical condition had stabilized, and the small plaques and rashes on my body were not painful or itchy, which almost made me forget that I was a C20 patient. Who would have thought that a high fever suddenly hit 40°C in the middle of the night would make everyone feel stupid.
Fortunately, Song Bai Lao found out in time, took me into the car with the quilt, and then flew to the hospital.
“Don’t sleep, we’ll be at the hospital soon.”
I struggled to open my eyes, and Song Bai Lao’s face came into view. I’ve never seen him in such a hurry, it’s like I’m going to die in the next second.
“It’s just a fever…” His palm held my side face, bringing a little coolness, and I couldn’t help rubbing against my hot cheeks and let out a comfortable sigh.
I couldn’t help but close my eyes, he rubbed the back of my neck hard and woke me up again.
“I said, don’t sleep.” He gritted his teeth.
I am like this, he is still so fierce, his temper is really bad.
“It’s alright…” I closed my eyes and said, “I can’t die.”
“You…” He seemed to be in a hurry, and he had no choice but to repeat over and over again, “Come on, hold on for a while.”
I mumbled a vague “um”, feeling his hands on my cheek seem to be shaking.
When we got to the hospital, the stretcher bed, nurses, and doctors were all waiting outside the door, just waiting to rescue me.
They pushed me through various tests and then sent me to the ward. I vaguely heard Song Bai Lao’s conversation with them, as if he had encountered a difficult problem and had to wait for Luo Meng Bai to solve it.
“We’ve never met, the c20 in his body… Dr. Luo may be able to explain…”
Seems like something is wrong with the c20 in my body?
This time the fever was even worse than the last time. I couldn’t concentrate at all, and I didn’t have time to ask Song Bai Lao what was going on. Eyelids raised and fell, my consciousness was blurred, and in the end, the whole person could only helplessly fall asleep.
When ShangShan was out of school every day, the school gate was always crowded with luxury cars. A calm business model and a supercar that pulls the wind can’t be said to have everything, but it is also comparable to the average medium and large auto show.
“Look, it’s a different Omega…”
The two Alphas not far in front of them murmured in a low voice, with envy in their words. I looked in their direction and quickly knew who they were talking about.
In front of a smooth fluorescent purple heavy-duty locomotive, a charming, long-haired Omega was wearing a tight leather jacket, with an all-black helmet tucked under her arm, and she smiled beautifully at the tall Alpha who walked out of the school.
“Bai Lao…”
Just as he was about to meet her, Song Bai Lao threw the schoolbag in his hand towards her, stepped directly onto the locomotive, and put his hands on the handle.
“Come up.” He tilted his head and said to the girl behind him.
The girl was stunned for a moment, and quickly stepped into the motorcycle with a blushing face, hugged his waist tightly, and slumped on his back.
Song Bai Lao’s lips curled into a smile: “Grab tight.”
After a harsh roar, the bright purple color disappeared, accompanied by the excited cheers of the girl, attracting the attention of many people.
I stood there and didn’t look back until the figure could no longer be seen, when I was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.
“Why are you in a daze?”
I snapped back to my senses and looked beside me, Zhu Li was looking at me with a funny face, and his hand was on my shoulder.
“No.” After speaking, I felt that he I too eager, so I hurriedly slowed down, “Let’s go brother, I’m hungry.”
Zhu Li hugged me and walked forward: “You bring so many snacks every day and still can’t get enough to eat?”
My heart skipped a beat, and I murmured, “Maybe, maybe I’ve grown up recently.”
Zhu Li didn’t say anything else. When he got to the Zhu family’s car, he asked me to get in first.
“Unfortunately, I don’t like sweets, otherwise I would like Ning Yu to help me prepare snacks every day.”
Zhu Li’s sigh came from the moment he bent down and got into the car. I turned to look at him, and he followed into the car and sat beside me with a normal expression on his face, as if the words just now were just my imagination.
At that time, I didn’t realize that his words were actually pointed very clearly, and I thought he was just saying it casually. In hindsight, it was really creepy. He should have been monitoring my every move from then on.
When I woke up again, the sunshine outside the window was just right, and the cloudy clouds of the previous days were swept away, revealing a rare blue sky.
The body is no longer so uncomfortable, except for the muscles and some soreness and weakness, other discomforts have been relieved a lot.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Song Bai Lao dozing off beside the bed. He put his hands around his chest and his head a little bit. He was already very sleepy, but he still couldn’t sleep on the sofa.
I moved my body and tried to sit up, but I didn’t expect that the clip on my finger accidentally fell off, and the machine temporarily sounded an alarm, which woke Song Bai Lao from his drowsiness.
He stood up abruptly, panting anxiously to see my situation. As soon as his eyes met mine, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned blue.
“Get up when you get up, what are you moving about?” He glanced at my fingers, and snapped back the pulse-monitoring clip in annoyance.
“I’m thirsty.”
Song Bai Lao picked up the water cup bedside table and fed it to my mouth. There was even a straw inserted into it for the patient to suck.
I sucked up half a glass of water through the straw, and then spit out the straw to signal that I had enough.
While Song Bai Lao put the water glass back on the cabinet, he leaned over and pressed the call bell.
After a while, the group of doctors and nurses headed by Luo Meng Bai, a group of about five or six people walked in.
The nurse took my temperature, the doctor asked me how I felt, and Luo Meng Bai whispered something to Song Bai Lao.
“I don’t feel too special, I don’t have a headache, and I don’t want to vomit…”
A young doctor said to a colleague next to him in a tone of amazement: “It’s amazing, I have never encountered such a thing…”
What is it ? What’s up?
Did this admission to the hospital discovered something new in me? They make me feel so unsure.
I looked at Song Bai Lao and the others. The two seemed to have finished their discussion. Luo Meng Bai walked over to me and sat sideways on the bed, facing me.
She said softly: “The results of this examination show that the c20 virus in your body has not changed significantly. Once the virus has ended its incubation period, the number of viruses in the cells will increase explosively, but this phenomenon does not appear in you. They didn’t retreat, but they didn’t continue to attack. For the time being, it’s good news.”
Even if I’m not a medical student, I know that c20 is extremely dangerous, and once it breaks out, it’s death. I escaped from the hands of the god of death, why am I a special one? Could it be that Luo Meng Bai secretly used the special medicine for me?
Maybe the confused expression on my face was too obvious, Luo Meng Bai then explained: “We suspect that everything may be related to the child you are carrying, and the antibodies in his body may inhibit the erosion of c20 on you.”
I was even more surprised: “This kind of thing…has this happened before?”
“Unheard of. I told you before that it is very difficult to keep a child in this situation. As far as I know, there has never been a case like yours in the world, even if Beta is pregnant with Alpha or Omega, fortunately, the child can still live at the age of one month, not so lucky, it can only end with one corpse and two lives.”
Her words made me tremble, I swallowed, and I didn’t have time to say anything. Song Bai Lao interjected dissatisfiedly into our conversation.
“Stop talking nonsense, and get straight to the point.”
Luo Meng Bai rolled her eyes silently, and her words became softer when facing me: “Immunology is vast, and human beings still know very little about it. It is theoretically feasible to obtain immune protection through the fetus, but it has never been known in the history of c20. There is such a special child. You are an example, there are specificities, and we can’t simply explain your situation, let alone predict your future. But the unknown sometimes represents hope, doesn’t it?”
Her eyes flashed, rather than seeing the hope of my survival, it is better to say that I see the hope of all mankind in me.
It has been a hundred years since c20 came into the world, and humans still have no way to take it. Although it only affects the life of Beta, the ripples produced by one point are infinite.
Human genetic mutation, atavism, deformed social evolution and so on all come from this.
If there is a breakthrough that can completely get rid of c20, even if it is just a little firefly in the dark, it will be equally exciting.
The premise is that I can successfully give birth to the child in my body.
The problem of c20 is temporarily relieved, but the possible rupture of the fertility sac anytime and anywhere is equally serious.
Luo Meng Bai made me stay in bed as much as possible for the next three months with a serious face, then turned around and said to Song Bai Lao: “There must be no sexual activity. Cousin, this is very important, please bear with it.”
Song Bai Lao looked at her coldly with a dark face, uttered a word loudly: “Go away.”
Luo Meng Bai shook her head: “Take a good rest, lack of sleep will make your temper worse and more irritable.”
Song Bai Lao: “Immediately.”
Luo Meng Bai got up with a light cough and waved his hand, and left with people.
Song Bai Lao walked to the bed and was about to sit down when a little nurse knocked on the door and leaned in.
“Someone sent a bunch of carnations to Mr. Ning.” She raised the red carnation in her hand and said.
Song Bai Lao raised his eyebrows, walked over to take the flowers from her hand, and found a card from the bouquet.
“I wish you a speedy recovery…” He suddenly changed his face and squeezed the card into his palm.
My intuition is that the person who sends flowers is not so simple. After all, apart from Liang Qiu Yang, I really don’t have any friends.
It’s a strange thing in itself that someone will order flowers to be delivered.
“Zhu Li gave it.” Song Bai Lao stood at the end of the bed holding a bunch of red carnations and asked me, “Do you want it?”
Zhu Li?
He has got everything he wants, why is he still haunted me?
The thought that he might be watching me all the time, knowing my every move, made me feel chills down my spine, and I felt as uncomfortable as ants crawling all over my body.
“No.” I shook my head.
Song Bai Lao said nothing, walked to the door with the bouquet, and threw it out.
“Throw it.” He didn’t know who to talk to.
After a while, he walked back to the bed and sat down again. He took a wet tissue and wiped his hands thoroughly, as if there was some nasty dirt on the bunch of flowers just now.
“I didn’t go to him, but he actually had the guts to go to the door first.” He slowly threw the wet tissue into the trash can, then took out his mobile phone and dialed a certain number.
“Send the email to Ruan Linghe.”
His tone was icy cold, and there was a trace of terrifying evil in his eyebrows, which made me shudder.
