“Big sister!” Gu Yan rushed over and looked at her sister anxiously.
“You guys… stop fighting!” Gu Mian’s parents rushed over to rescue their son at all costs.
The people who were surrounding and beating Gu Ling shoved the couple.
The couple fell to the ground. Gu Mian’s father felt a suffocating pain in his heart all of a sudden. In the next second, he pa.s.sed out.
“My husband, my husband… Mian Mian, Yan’er, quick, come to your father!” Gu Mian’s mother called out for both her daughters.
Gu Ling suddenly rose to his feet again and shoved away the people who were surrounding him and beating him. He swiftly dashed away from the mansion and fled the scene.
“Gu Ling, come back!” Gu Mian was so angry that she screamed. But she did not have the time to go after him. She had to save her father first.
Gu Mian swiftly gave him CPR. At the same time, she told her younger sister to call an ambulance. Gu Mian’s mother felt such a strong sense of suffocation in her chest that she could only hug her youngest daughter anxiously and cry.
There was no time for them to care about their house anymore. They could only let those men move everything away. After the ambulance had arrived, the members of the Gu family sent their father to the hospital together.
Only when their father had been sent into the operating theater did Gu Mian feel the pain in her hand. She lowered her head and saw that the fragment of green gla.s.s had been plunged deeper into her flesh. She was in so much pain that her hand was trembling.
“Big sister, your hand… go and get it bandaged up first.” Gu Yan informed their mother before she led her sister to the emergency room to get her hand bandaged,
The nurse saw that her wound was too deep and said, “You need st.i.tches for this. Do you need anaesthesia?”
“Of course she needs that, or else she would be in excruciating pain,” Gu Yan quickly said.
“We will need to wait for a while before we can inject her with anaesthesia. This is so that she doesn’t bleed more.” The nurse glanced at Gu Mian, who had turned pale.
Gu Yan knew that her older sister had anemia. She wanted to tell the nurse that her older sister needed a blood transfusion, but when she thought about the situation her family was facing at the moment…
The young nurse called a male doctor over to start handling Gu Mian’s wound. First, he picked the gla.s.s clean from her flesh before he moved on to st.i.tching it up.
Gu Mian was in so much pain that her whole body was s.h.i.+vering. She almost bit her lower lip off. That pain was so intense that it penetrated her bones. But she could only clench her teeth and endure the pain.
When it was over, Gu Mian’s entire body was soaked in sweat. She lay at the spot and rested for a long time. Gu Yan kept calling her name. That young woman was so terrified to the point that she kept crying.
Gu Mian comforted her younger sister for a little. The two sisters then went to the Emergency Department. They saw that their mother was having a word with the doctor. The doctor kept shaking his hand, though.
“Mum, what’s the matter?” Gu Mian quickly rushed over and steadied her mother’s swaying body.
“Your father needs to undergo surgery at once, or else his life will be in danger. Just make the payment for the surgery fee of five hundred thousand RMB. If not, we do not have permission to perform his surgery,” The doctor said emotionlessly.
“Doctor, I’m begging you Please perform the surgery for my husband. We will definitely make the payment after that.” Gu Mian’s mother was pleading with the doctor.
“Sorry, the hospital has rules. No money, no surgery. Right now, Mr. Gu might lose his life any time. All of you better think of a solution now.” The doctor left, and the mother and her two daughters were so terrified that their legs went limp.
“What are we supposed to do? What are we supposed to do? We don’t even have a single penny in our family savings.” Gu Mian’s mother was so anxious that she pa.s.sed out.
The two sisters quickly helped their mother to a seat. They started ma.s.saging their mother, and only then did she regain consciousness.
Gu Mian was also in a dazed state at the moment. She suddenly raised her head and saw that Tang Zui had come out of a car and was walking towards the hospital.
“Yan’er, take care of mum first. I will be back in a while.” Gu Mian was left with no choice. She only had one notion on her mind at the moment, which was to get enough money for her father’s surgery.
