Young Miss Strike Back! - Chapter 133
Shen Xing’s face went black. He did not like the fact that the doctor was calling him out of the room. Any time a doctor did such a thing meant bad news. Not really wanting to hear what was about to be said Shen Xing nodded and carefully leaned the sleeping Lin Xiaoxiao back onto the bed. He then got up and followed the doctor out.
The doctor led Shen Xing to an office a little way down the hall. “Please sit.”
Shen Xing sat down and turned to the doctor and said: “I am guessing what you want to tell me is not good so just give it to me straight. How is my mother in law?”
The doctor sighed as he gave a bitter smile. “She did not make it… The loss of blood was too much and the wound in her chest actually ripped part of her heart out when the assailant pulled the knife out. The person who stabbed her was just too vicious with their methods. We were able to keep her alive all the way until the end of the operation. That was when a heart valve burst. We were not able to stop the bleeding. With the already large amount of blood she was losing we could not save her… I am deeply sorry for your loss…” The doctor looked very tired he was the lead surgeon working on Qin Mei’s surgery. He had not expected that the heart valve would burst right as they were trying to finish the repairs to the heart. He had lost many patients on the table in his years but this was the saddest of them all since she was so close to being saved. He really regretted that he could not have been quicker in his work.
“I see…” Shen Xing’s heart sank. He had gotten along well with Qin Mei and saw her as a mother figure for himself as well.
His mother and father died a long time ago in an accident and he was raised by his grandmother and grandfather. But Qin Mei gave him that motherly feel that he had always yearned for. That was why he never had an issue with Qin Mei living with them. Tears rolled down his cheek as he thought of the woman who would sometimes smile at him and sometimes scold him. She was a person so warm of heart that she would even give up everything to save a child in need of help. Now he had two girls who are going to be motherless once again… Shen Xing got up from his chair, clenched his fist and punched the wall as hard as he could over and over again. Blood dripped from his knuckles and he leaned his head against the wall. He had no idea how he was going to break this to Lin Xiaoxiao and Minmin. To both girls, Qin Mei was a ray of light that they needed! He felt like a failure of a husband since he could not even protect his own loved ones!
The doctor saw what Shen Xing was going to do but did not stop him. He knew that these are times when words and actions could not do much. All he could do was offer to help bandage up his hand once he was done. “Mr. Shen, I have already called a nurse in to bandage your hand.”
The doctor’s voice brought Shen Xing back to his senses and the pain in his hand started to throb. He was sure he had a few broken knuckles now. “I will have to give you my thanks then. Doctor, I must ask. When will we be able to host a funeral?”
“I will have the funeral home call you as soon as possible. Should not be more than a few days before you can hold a funeral.” The doctor answered.
“I thank you then. I will need to go and relay the news to my family now.” Shen Xing gave a bow before exiting the room. As soon as he did he called Shen Li. “Hello?”
“Cousin are you at the hospital?” Shen Xing asked.
“No, I am on my way to trial. But if need be I can come now.” Shen Li was on the way to a high profile case. But it did not mean he could not drop it for the sake of his family.
“Yeah, come now. Mom didn’t make it. Little Bo will need you.” Shen Xing was doing everything he could right now to stay strong the thought of his baby girl crying after she hears the news weighed on his heart.
“Alright. Luckily I am close by I will be there in ten minutes. Wait for me before you relay the news to them.” Shen Li felt bitter inside. His little wife’s wedding was ruined by that attacker and now her aunt was taken from her because of that man. He wished he could do more in this situation but all he can offer is his support.
Shen Xing did not go back to the room right away he went to the main lobby to wait for Shen Li. As he was walking he saw a familiar figure walking towards him with a huge smile on her face. Shen Xing’s eyes turned cold as he saw this girl. It was Sun Qui who had threatened Lin Xiaoxiao before.
“Xing! Fancy meeting you here I heard what happened at the wedding and came to visit as soon as I heard. Xing, I hope you do not hold my previous transgression against me I was muddle headed at the time. How about this I will treat you to a dinner to show amends.” Sun Qui reached out with her hands as she went to hug Shen Xing’s arm, only to feel a cold palm clasp her neck and squeeze tightly to the point that she could not breathe. “X-Xing..?”
“Only one person is allowed to call me by my name and that is not you. If you ever show your face in front of me again I will make sure that no one sees your face ever again.” Shen Xing already had a feeling that this despicable woman had something to do with the attack at the wedding. He just did not have the evidence yet! Shen Xing loosened his grip and tossed Sun Qui to the ground. Before turning around and leaving as he made his way to the hospital entrance. He was not worried about Sun Qui trying to harm Lin Xaixoaio since she could not get into the VIP ward no matter how much she tried.
Sun Qui sat on the floor breathing heavily as she glared in the direction Shen Xing had left. “What does that fucking slut have that I don’t!? Just you wait, Shen Xing! I will make you mine and kill that slut very soon!”
