Chapter 211 - Suspected Leukemia
Chapter 211 Suspected Leukemia
The servant thought for a moment and said, “Madam went out once during the day, but did not say who she was going to see.”
Huo Yunqi waved his hand when he heard this, “Alright, I understand.”
Sure enough, he went out to meet someone else.
Not long after, the doctor went downstairs and saw Huo Yunqi waiting in the living room. “President Huo,” he said with a complicated expression.
Doctor Li was Huo Yunqi’s personal doctor. The two of them were not close, but they were definitely not estranged. At this moment, he looked at Huo Yunqi hesitantly, as if he had something to say.
“Speak.” Huo Yunqi said indifferently, guessing in his heart.
Doctor Li frowned and said, “Mrs. Huo’s foot is not sprained, but …”
After that, Doctor Li sized up Huo Yunqi’s expression and knew that he had already guessed the result. He sighed and continued, “Mrs. Huo didn’t sprain her foot, but I still recommend that you take her to the hospital for a full-body examination.”
“Why?” Huo Yunqi’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Doctor Li. “Tell me what’s going on.”
“When I was just examining Mrs. Huo’s ankle, I noticed a lot of bleeding on her left leg and calf. She was suspected of leukemia,” said Dr. Li.
After saying this in one breath, Doctor Li did not feel any lighter. Instead, he felt as if Huo Yunqi’s gaze was going to devour him alive. The temperature in the room was already so cold that the blood in his entire body was frozen stiff.
Time was prolonged by Huo Yunqi’s silent emotions. Doctor Li felt as if it had been so far away from reality before he heard Huo Yunqi say, “Alright, I know. You can go back first.”
Huo Yunqi was the only one in the empty living room. He placed his fingers on the sofa and felt the chill coming from his fingers. He was silent for a long time, as if he wanted to merge with the living room.
The night was very long. Huo Yunqi walked from the living room to the courtyard and inadvertently glanced at the sky. There were only two or three stars in the darkness.
In the room, Liu Yan urged Sister-in-law Song, “What are you going to see Yunqi for? I wonder if he can believe Li Sheng’s words.”
“You promised him so many benefits. Why wouldn’t he listen?” Sister-in-law Song comforted Liu Yan, “But in order to convince Young Master that you’ve really twisted your foot, I’m afraid you’ll have to rest in the hospital bed for a while.”
“Do you want to inform Miss Ai to come home to take care of you?” Sister-in-law Song probed.
Liu Yan shook her head. She already had her own plan in her heart, “Just let Yunqi accompany me.”
She did not believe that she was already in bed and her son could still ignore her!
Gao Yi’an poured a glass of milk and handed it to Xia Luobing, “I will look at Lin Chen. You go and rest first.”
Tonight was a heart-shaking night. Everyone was exhausted, and Xia Luobing’s eyes were clearly blue and purple.
“Alright.” Xia Luobing did not refuse. He carried the milk cup into the sleeping bedroom. The little girl was sleeping soundly with a multicolored caterpillar in her arms. Her pink tongue stuck out and shrunk, causing her heart to soften into a pool of water.
No matter how bloody and unstable the outside was, the room was always warm and safe.
“Duoduo, mother loves you.” Xia Luobing lowered her head and kissed her daughter’s soft inner cheek, her eyes shining with motherly love, “Silly girl.”
Xia Luobing helped her daughter pull the blanket and stood up to the balcony. Huo Yunqi suddenly returned to the Huo Clan’s old mansion. Could something happen? ”
She held her phone and hesitated for a moment before making a phone call. The phone rang, and Yunqi Huo picked up the phone. His voice was a bit hoarse and tired, “Ice.”
“What happened?” Xia Luobing keenly sensed that Huo Yunqi was in a bad mood and whispered, “What’s wrong with you?”
She had never heard Huo Yunqi’s tone before. It was as heavy as the night outside the window, causing her heart to tighten inexplicably.
“Mom twisted her ankle. I’m not going over tonight. Take good care of yourself.” Huo Yunqi changed his tone and warned, “Call me if you need anything.”
Charlotte pursed her lips and said, “Alright, you should call me if you need anything.”
After hanging up the phone, Xia Luobing stood on the balcony for a long time. Looking at the dark night, she was distracted, and her heart was filled with intense unease.
For the first time, she felt so timid.
Huo Yunqi and I had worked very hard all this way, so we were especially worried that something would happen.
Xia Luobing smiled bitterly and shook her head. She turned around and returned to the bedroom. She gently laid down beside her daughter and hugged her tiny bodies to her chest. Only then did her irritated heart become more stable.
Duo Duo, Mommy will definitely make your life happy.
Because she had something on her mind, it was only in the second half of the night that Xia Luobing fell asleep unconsciously. Her dreams were filled with dark swamps. She was trapped inside the swamp and wanted to call for help loudly, but she could not make a sound.
“Mommy, I’m so hungry.” Duo Duo opened her eyes and was pleasantly surprised to find Xia Luobing lying beside her. She excitedly rolled over to Xia Luobing and kissed her on the face. “Your Duo Duo is so hungry!”
Xia Luobing opened her eyes in a daze. Looking at her daughter who was like a Buddha Fairy in front of her, most of the irritation caused by the nightmare disappeared.
“Duoduo is hungry? Mommy, can you cook for Duoduo now?” Xia Luobing squeezed his daughter’s soft little hand, and his body was immediately filled with courage and strength. Only then did his spirit become better.
Huo Yunqi, you didn’t call all night last night. I wonder if his mother’s feet are serious
“Dong dong dong dong!”
Xia Luobing was about to open the door when she heard Gao Yi’an knocking on the door. He reached out and smiled, “Good morning, is Lin Chen awake?”
“I just woke up. I’ve already eaten a bowl of millet porridge. Now you’re asleep again.” Gao Yi’an smiled and said, “Not bad.”
Hearing this, Xia Luobing felt that a stone hanging in her heart had fallen slightly. However, she didn’t know what was going on with Nan Qi.
“Uncle Yi An, Duo Duo is so hungry.” Duo Duo raised her flower-like little face and looked at the two of them, helplessly saying, “Are you going to starve your Duo Duo to death?”
Gao Yi’an smiled and rubbed the little fellow’s head with a spoiled expression, “Alright, I’ll take you to dinner right now.”
Charlotte put down her bowl and chopsticks and smiled, “You guys eat first. I’ll go see Lin Chen.”
“Bing Bing, what’s wrong with you?” Gao Yi’an had rarely seen Charlotte like this. Her entire body looked listless and her spirits were very bad.
Xia Luobing shook her head and left the dining room. She knocked on Lin Chen’s door and entered. Seeing the person lying on the bed, she was stunned for a moment and smiled. “I thought you were still asleep.”
Lin Chen struggled to sit up. The wound on his left arm was still painful, and his usually refined face had a hard time enduring the pain.
“Don’t move!” Xia Luobing stepped forward and pressed down on Lin Chen’s arm, “Be careful of the wound.”
“It’s fine.” Lin Chen leaned back on the bed with Xia Luobing’s help. He looked at Xia Luobing and smiled, “I know you should be looking for me.”
The situation last night was extremely dangerous. Xia Luobing was confused and didn’t have time to ask. Moreover, after bandaging his wounds, he had already fainted.
“Shouldn’t you give me an explanation? What are you and Nan Qi doing?” Xia Luobing looked at Lin Chen and said, “Who is chasing after you? Why are you chasing after me?”
Lin Chen pursed his lips and looked at Xia Luobing, “How is Nan Qi?”
Actually, there was no need to ask. Now that Xia Luobing could still stand here and chat with her, Nan Qi’s situation would definitely not be very bad.
“He’s fine. Answer my question first.” Xia Luobing looked at Lin Chen and didn’t give him a chance to dodge. “What are you guys doing?”
Yesterday night, she carefully thought about what happened after Nan Qi and Lin Chen appeared. She discovered that there were many doubts, and all of them pointed in the same direction … She did not dare to continue thinking, worried that the result would be unacceptable to her at all.
Seeing Xia Luobing’s expression change, Lin Chen bitterly smiled and said, “Luo Bing, I hope you don’t interfere in this matter for the time being. Pretend that you don’t know anything, okay?”
“No!” Xia Luobing’s eyes flashed with sadness. “I’m a criminal policeman.”
She can’t do anything against professional ethics.
The atmosphere in the room became gloomy. Xia Luobing raised it so hard that her heart was blocked. She glanced at Lin Chen and turned to leave. Her footsteps were heavy, as if she was worried that Lin Chen would reveal some secret!
She was worried that the secret was the same as she had guessed, so she instinctively chose to avoid it.
“Nan Qi …” Lin Chen shook his head, his eyes filled with bitterness and helplessness. Why did he encounter Xia Luobing?
It’s fate.
When Xia Luobing returned to the living room, Gao Yi’an came over with coffee and sat in the seat opposite her, worriedly saying, “What’s wrong with you? Is your face so ugly?”
Actually, he understood that Charlotte’s personality, love and hatred, which he had known for so many years, could not tolerate the slightest bit of deception, nor could she touch the bottom line of the law with her hands.
It was clear that last night, Lin Chen and Nan Qi had made things very difficult for her.
“Yi An, I suddenly realized that I don’t like to wear police uniform.” Xia Luobing whispered, feeling a little depressed. He held the coffee and laughed softly, “Do you think I’m useless?”
Standing at both ends of the friendship and the legal balance, she felt as uncomfortable as her heart.
She was puzzled and at a loss for what to do.
Seeing that Charlotte was like this, Gao Yi’an felt very distressed and whispered, “Didn’t we agree yesterday? Do everything according to what you feel in your heart, so that even if you are wrong, you won’t regret it.”
Xia Luobing smiled bitterly. “These things are easy to say, but hard to do.”
She was a criminal police officer, and this knowledge was already deep in her bones and couldn’t be changed.
But Nan Qi and Lin Chen
Seeing Xia Luobing’s calm expression, Gao Yi’an knew that no matter what he said at this time, it would be useless. He sighed and smiled, “Don’t think nonsense. When you see Nan Qi, ask everything clearly. Perhaps they are innocent.”
Xia Luobing rubbed his forehead with his fingers and smiled bitterly, “That’s the only way now.”
In order not to bring any trouble to Nan Qi and Huo Yunzhan, Xia Luobing did not look for them. He only confirmed on the phone that Nan Qi’s injuries had stabilized. He sat on the sofa without moving and squinted her eyes like a lazy cat.
She was woken up by a ringing phone. The caller was Yunzhan Huo. He said that Nan Qi had disappeared.
Huo Yunzhan hurried to Gao Yi’an’s residence and said anxiously, “Did he contact you? I made many phone calls, but he didn’t answer.”
Afterwards, he turned off the phone directly.
Xia Luobing looked at Huo Yunzhan, who was very anxious. With great difficulty, she calmed her emotions and said in a deep voice, “When did he disappear? Did he say anything strange before leaving?”
