Chapter 638: Now only she remains_1

Ning Anran had been wheeled into the operating room for over ten hours and the waiting room lights were still on.

Baili Xia was also waiting outside, for more than ten hours.

No matter how Mr.

Xiaojiu persuaded her, even when he resorted to direct orders.

She merely stared blankly at the door, refusing to move away from it.

In the end, even this cold and heartless Mr.

Xiaojiu was completely out of ideas.

Seeing her like this, they certainly couldn’t force her to leave.

If they were to drag her away forcefully, it would hurt this girl’s heart.

If Baili Xia wouldn’t leave, then Mr.

Xiaojiu and Dongfang Jin had no choice but to stay with her, risking their own safety.

Ye Hua and Lei Shuo had brought some food over, but Baili Xia refused to take a bite.

She kept staring at the operating room door, almost turning into a statue.

Usually, it was not obvious, one wouldn’t know how deep the bond between these two girls was.

But now, as trouble struck, it was clear just how important Ning Anran was to her.

She never had many friends in her life, just a few close ones when she was in the orphanage.

Yet, after all of them had been adopted, only Ning Anran remained with her.

The other children had all scattered to the four corners of the earth, their whereabouts unknown.

She was too young at that time to understand what staying in touch meant.

Now, apart from sighing in regret, there was nothing left.

She now had only An Ran as her friend…

…

After an unknown amount of time passed, suddenly, the operating room door was pushed open.

A doctor in a white coat walked out, his face showing obvious signs of fatigue.

Baili Xia sprang up, intending to approach.

But her legs had only taken half a step when they became numb.

She went soft and almost fell.

“Be careful.” Mr.

Xiaojiu and Dongfang Jin simultaneously stood up, helping her to steady herself.

Baili Xia ignored them both, dragging her numb legs towards the doctor.

“Doctor, Doctor, how is An Ran? What’s the patient’s condition now?”

The doctor clearly recognized Mr.

Xiaojiu and Dongfang Jin.

Ignoring Baili Xia, he went to meet them instead: “Mr.

Xiaojiu, Mr.

Jin.”

“Get to the point!” Mr.

Xiaojiu’s voice had turned colder.

This little creature was already so anxious, and he still had the nerve to give formalities!

The doctor was startled by the chilling tone of his words.

After a half-second pause, he immediately began explaining the patient’s situation.

“…Currently, the bullet shell has been removed.

However, the patient’s heartbeat is very weak, we fear she won’t wake up…”

“No!

That’s not possible, it can’t be!”

Baili Xia’s legs went weak, this time, she was really about to fall.

“Calm down, everything is fine!” Mr.

Xiaojiu caught her and held her in his arms.

Watching the doctor, his gaze turned sharp, “What do you need now?”

The doctor coming out at this time would either need the family members to sign some documents or to announce something.

It wasn’t time to give up just yet and since it didn’t seem he was about to announce something, it had to be the signature he wanted.

“Whatever you need to be signed, I’ll do it.” He said, his voice heavy.

Ning Anran’s family wasn’t in Jin City, and this little creature was now terrified out of her wits.

Let alone writing, she couldn’t even stand steadily.

“Alright, alright…” The doctor finally remembered the purpose of his coming out.

He immediately passed the document in his hand to Mr.

Xiaojiu.

“Mr. Xiaojiu, we need to perform another vascular grafting operation, this operation has a high risk factor…”

Mr.

Xiaojiu had no patience to wait for him to finish, he quickly scrawled his name on it.

He assumed that once he signed, the doctor would go in immediately and perform the operation on Ning Anran.

Yet, after receiving the contract, the doctor still stood there.

He looked at Mr.

Xiaojiu with a hesitating expression.
