Chapter 556: Survived a Calamity
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Nuan turned to look out the window at the street, which appeared to be moving in reverse. It was only then that it really struck her that she was overseas…
Fu Huai’an’s situation was unknown, and another layer of unease stacked up in Lin Nuan’s heart.
“It’ll be fine!” Lin Nuan lowered her voice and told herself solemnly, clenching her phone tightly.
Fu Huai’an was such an outstanding person. He had been a member of the special forces and could save her from the hands of terrorists!
As a lawyer… he struck terror in people’s hearts within the industry!
After taking over the Kaide Corporation, he took it to an insurmountable height!
How could anything happen to a man like this?
Lin Nuan egged herself on, telling herself to remain calm and not be anxious…
Lin Nuan gradually calmed down in the car, but the moment she dashed into the hospital’s emergency room, it felt as if something had exploded in her mind.
There were howling voices everywhere, and the doctors and nurses had to shout to communicate. They spoke so quickly in Arabic that she could only catch a few lines.
Lin Nuan had just stepped forward when she heard two doctors rus.h.i.+ng into the emergency room. They communicated very quickly in Arabic, and Lin Nuan caught a few lines from their conversation. She put them together… and the meaning of their conversation caused her heart to thump fiercely. She could only hear the intense sounds of her heartbeats.
“Amongst the few foreigners that were pierced by steel pipes, one of them died right when he was sent to the operating room!”
The emergency room was filled with people. That conversation caused Lin Nuan’s heart to be wrenched so tightly that it was hard for her to even breathe.
A whizzing sound kept ringing in Lin Nuan’s head, and she could no longer hear any other voices. Her heart was palpitating so fiercely that it felt as if her heart was going to jump out at any moment.
More family members rushed into the emergency room, knocking into Lin Nuan’s shoulder and continuing to run forward. Lin Nuan staggered, and her phone was thrown out…
“I’m sorry!” The person that b.u.mped into her turned and apologized to Lin Nuan, then anxiously left to catch hold of a nurse, asking where his family member was.
Lin Nuan seemed as if she had just woken up from a dream. That’s right! She should ask the nurses!
Her forehead and back were covered in cold sweat. She picked up her phone and then grabbed a nurse who was holding onto a dressing tray and was about to leave. She spoke in awkward Arabic, her voice trembling as she asked, “There’s a patient called Fu Huai’an. Do you know where he is?”
The nurse brushed off Lin Nuan’s cold hands impatiently. “There are patients everywhere! Can’t you go find the person yourself?”
Find the person herself!
Lin Nuan’s legs felt as if they had lost all feeling. She could only follow her instincts, flipping open curtain after curtain like a headless fly, desperately looking for Fu Huai’an in the emergency room.
She flipped open one curtain and saw that it wasn’t Fu Huai’an. She tried another, it still wasn’t him!
Lin Nuan had almost flipped open all the separating curtains in the emergency room but had yet to find Fu Huai’an. Her heart continued to sink, and her body was so cold that she was trembling non-stop.
She stood before the last separating curtain in the emergency room. She had lost the courage to flip it open.
She was afraid that the person inside wasn’t Fu Huai’an! That Fu Huai’an was one of the people lying in an operating room!
She was even more afraid that… Fu Huai’an was that foreigner driver that the doctors had mentioned, the one who, right after being brought into an operating room…
Lin Nuan was drenched in sweat, but her body was icy-cold, without any warmth at all!
Her trembling right hand grabbed onto the separating curtain, and she used all of her strength to pull it open!
Inside was a black-haired man who was wearing a black hoodie and was sorting out his sleeves.
He lifted his head. He had smart features and emitted a hint of coolness and capability. However, he wasn’t Fu Huai’an!
“You are?” That man looked up at Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan’s throat trembled. There were only the words “operating room” left in her mind.
She turned anxiously, grabbed the first doctor she saw, and spoke in an extremely hoa.r.s.e and sobbing voice. “Just now… the injured patients brought in, where are the operating rooms?”
Lin Nuan felt so anxious that she wasn’t even able to speak a complete sentence.
When the doctor saw that Lin Nuan was trembling all over and wearing an extremely horrified expression, he could guess that Lin Nuan’s family member was in an operating room. He pointed to a door and quickly said, “Go out from here and then take the elevator to the sixth floor!”
The words “thank you” were stuck in Lin Nuan’s throat. She turned and was about to run towards the operating rooms when she became stunned, rooted to the spot.
That tall and familiar figure entered from the emergency room, holding onto a bill, his head lowered as he read it. The instant he raised his head, he also saw Lin Nuan…
Under the hospital’s incandescent light, Lin Nuan’s exquisite, clean, and pale-looking face was illuminated to look as white as a sheet.
The collar of Fu Huai’an’s white s.h.i.+rt was dyed red with blood, and the part in front of his chest was also dirty. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, exposing his firm and tanned arms, and the gla.s.s of the wrist.w.a.tch that Lin Nuan had given to him as a gift was already cracked.
Despite that, he was still handsome and charming, filled with a manly allure that made Lin Nuan’s heart throb to the extent that she wanted to cry.
Seeing that Fu Huai’an was safe, not having lost an arm or leg… not pierced by a steel pipe, Lin Nuan heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she also felt that her vision had turned black, and her legs were giving way.
The loud and seething voices around her seemed to have disappeared, and her legs turned to jelly, unable to support her body. She staggered a step backward and subconsciously grabbed onto a separating curtain.
Stabilizing herself, Lin Nuan saw that Fu Huai’an was frowning deeply. He moved sideways through the crowd and quickly walked toward her.
The emotions that Lin Nuan had been forcibly holding in acc.u.mulated and then exploded in her chest.
Tears gushed out from her eyes, and she gritted her teeth tightly as she squeezed through the crowd and ran in Fu Huai’an’s direction.
Their gazes met, and before Fu Huai’an could say anything, Lin Nuan had pounced into his arms. Her force was so great that Fu Huai’an staggered a step backward before holding her by the waist and stabilizing himself.
The hand that was holding onto the bill held Lin Nuan firmly. Fu Huai’an could sense that Lin Nuan was trembling, and he lowered his head to ask, “Why have you come?”
When Lin Nuan heard Fu Huai’an’s voice, when she put her ear against his chest and listened to his steady heartbeat, her tension suddenly faded. Her emotions went out of control as well, and she cried loudly, as if she had just survived a calamity…
Initially, Fu Huai’an was slightly at a loss when he saw Lin Nuan hugging him and crying. However, he thought of how Lin Nuan had suddenly appeared here. She had probably felt worried after seeing the news report and thus came over!
Fu Huai’an listened to Lin Nuan’s crying and hugged her tighter, not saying a word.
People crying and laughing was normal in an environment like a hospital. No one looked at Lin Nuan as if they were looking at a monster. All of them were frantically searching for their family members or feeling aggrieved over their kin’s pain or departure.
“It’s alright now!” Fu Huai’an pacified Lin Nuan in a soft voice. “Aren’t I standing right here without any problems? I’m fine…”
“Why didn’t you pick up your phone!” Lin Nuan calmed down a little and pounded Fu Huai’an’s back with all her strength. “Why didn’t you call to say that you were fine! We were able to call your phone! Little Lu called countless times! I had to hold it in, not daring to call in front of Tuan Tuan… I was afraid that Tuan Tuan would feel scared, but even I…”
Lin Nuan sobbed, unable to continue her sentence.
