Chapter 547: What’s Going On?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The wound on his abdomen hurt so much that Cui Muzhi could not open his eyes.

He curled up his entire body and lay on the bed, waiting for Gu Zhongxun to come in and stitch his wound again. He still held Lan Jingbai’s palm tightly with one hand.

Gu Zhongxun entered the room and said, “Let go first. He has to enter the operating theater.”

Cui Muzhi slowly opened his eyes and asked with a pale face, “Can’t he come in with me?”

Gu Zhongxun shook his head. “The operating theater has to be preserved in a sterile state. He can’t go in. It won’t be long before you come out. Let him wait.”

Cui Muzhi glanced at Lan Jingbai and actually said, “Then I don’t want to be treated anymore.”

Lan Jingbai had left a huge trauma on him the last time he left without saying goodbye. He was afraid that if he went in, he would disappear again after the anesthesia was applied.

He was already in so much pain and had lost so much blood.

Lan Jingbai’s heart ached. With a gentle gaze, he said firmly, “Listen to Doctor Gu. I’m here. I’ll definitely wait for you to wake up.”

Cui Muzhi’s eyes turned red again. This was what he had been waiting for.

Cui Muzhi was pushed into the operating theater by the nurse. Lan Jingbai was guarding the door with a worried gaze. Wen Renhua passed by and comforted him. “It’s just a wound stitch. It will be fine.”

Even so, he couldn’t help but worry.

After a while, urgent footsteps came from the corridor. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝑏𝓃𝑜𝑣𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝑜𝓂

When Cui Shiji and Madam Cui saw Lan Jingbai and looked into the operating theater, they immediately asked Wen Renhua anxiously, “Miracle Doctor Wen, how’s my son?”

Wen Renhua said, “He’ll be fine. It’s just that the wound has opened up. We just have to stitch it up again.”

Less than two days after the surgery, Cui Muzhi’s wound had already opened up because of Lan Jingbai.

He did not care about his life at all.

If he could do this that day, he would die for Lan Jingbai another day.

Cui Shiji was furious when he saw Lan Jingbai. He ordered with a dark expression, “Get out!”

Madam Cui looked at him with a pained expression. Thinking of her son’s pained expression after stitching up the wound, she sighed deeply. “Jingbai, you should leave first.”

Lan Jingbai stood where he was with a firm gaze. “Master, Madam, please let me wait for Muzhi to wake up. When he wakes up, I’ll leave immediately.”

Cui Shiji was exasperated. “Do you think my words don’t matter? How miserable are you trying to make him become?”

Lan Jingbai lowered his head and avoided Cui Shiji’s pained gaze. “Master, please grant me my wish.”

He just wanted to wait until he woke up and did not dare to hope for more.

Cui Shiji was so angry that he could not care less about being refined. Just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and hit someone, Cui Lingyi arrived.

She saw Lan Jingbai in a sorry state, and her gaze landed on Cui Shiji, who seemed to have aged several years overnight.

Cui Lingyi said to Cui Shiji, “Uncle, Muzhi can’t take any stimulation now. Let him stay first. You don’t want Muzhi’s wound to open again, right?”

Cui Shiji thought of Cui Muzhi’s stubborn temper. If he did not see Lan Jingbai when he woke up, he would definitely make a fuss and try his best to escape from home.

It was better to listen to Cui Lingyi and temporarily let Lan Jingbai stay.

Cui Shiji’s expression changed again and again. He did not speak again, but he did not chase Lan Jingbai away.

After a while, the operating theater door opened.

Gu Zhongxun walked out, and Cui Muzhi was pushed out by the nurse.

He lay quietly on the operating table. Lan Jingbai subconsciously grabbed his hand. Cui Shiji’s eyebrows twitched in disbelief. His eyelids rolled back and he actually fainted.

Gu Zhongxun hurriedly squatted down and checked Cui Shiji’s condition.

Lan Jingbai was at a loss. He looked at Cui Shiji and then at Cui Muzhi, feeling extremely pained.

Madam Cui hurriedly asked, “Doctor Gu, is he alright?”

Gu Zhongxun pinched Cui Shiji’s acupuncture point, and Cui Shiji woke up slowly.

Gu Zhongxun smiled. “Master Cui is in good health. Madam Cui, don’t worry. He was just anxious and got overly heated. After taking some medicine to relieve the heat, he will be fine if he calms down.”

How could he be calm when there was this brat at home?

Cui Shiji said angrily, “Just let me die.”

Madam Cui was helpless. “Master, what are you saying?”

In the end, Lan Jingbai waited for Cui Muzhi to wake up under Cui Shiji’s surveillance.

Cui Muzhi opened his eyes and saw Cui Shiji.

Thinking that it was the wrong way for him to regain consciousness, he closed his eyes again and opened them. When he realized that it was still Cui Shiji’s big face approaching, he was immediately frightened. He wanted to sit up and look around for Lan Jingbai.

He only heaved a sigh of relief when he found Lan Jingbai in the corner.

Sure enough, it wasn’t another nightmare.

When Cui Muzhi woke up, he was only thinking about Lan Jingbai. Cui Shiji felt even more suffocated. He glanced at Lan Jingbai with a dark expression, indicating that Muzhi was already awake and it was time for him to get lost.

Lan Jingbai’s expression gradually darkened. Under Cui Muzhi’s happy gaze, he steeled his heart and turned to leave.

Cui Muzhi hurriedly wanted to jump out of bed. “Jingbai!”

Cui Shiji stopped him. “What are you doing? Your wound has just been stitched up! Do you want to suffer a third time?!”

He had jumped hard when the anesthetic effects kicked in. Immediately, he felt the pain of ten thousand arrows piercing his heart.

Cui Muzhi’s face was pale, but he was still shouting, “Jingbai—”

Lan Jingbai leaned against the door of the ward. Tears welled up in his eyes. He had to use all his strength to close his eyes to prevent himself from rushing in.

The more Cui Shiji pressed him down, the more he resisted. He almost pushed Cui Shiji to the ground.

Seeing that he was extremely unstable and his face was as pale as a piece of paper, Cui Lingyi hurriedly said, “Jingbai didn’t leave. He went to get you water.

He’ll be back soon.”

Cui Muzhi looked up with red eyes. “Really? Sister, you’re not lying to me?”

Cui Lingyi gave Madam Cui a look. Madam Cui hurriedly said, “No, he’ll come back soon!”

Cui Muzhi said in a daze, “…Then why isn’t he back yet…” He looked like he was about to get out of bed to look for him again.

After all, he was her biological son. She couldn’t force him to death.

Cui Shiji sighed in resignation. He knew that Lan Jingbai must be hiding in some corner. He turned around and was about to look for him when Lan Jingbai appeared with a glass of water and smiled at Cui Muzhi.

Cui Muzhi’s emotions were comforted immediately. He reached out to ask Lan Jingbai for water. “Why were you gone for so long?”

Lan Jingbai handed him the water. “I’m sorry I’m late.”

Cui Lingyi gestured to leave them some space to prevent Cui Shiji from getting agitated again.

Cui Shiji left the room angrily. He was still lying outside the window indignantly, staring at their every move. Cui Lingyi and Madam Cui felt their heads ache. They advised him, “Don’t agitate Muzhi. Let Jingbai stay first. We’ll talk about it after Muzhi recovers.”

Cui Shiji looked inside and saw Lan Jingbai and Cui Muzhi smiling like a painting. He felt strange.

He felt dispirited because his child had grown up and no longer listened to him.

Cui Shiji slowly turned his back and did not speak for a long time. When he looked up again, the man who had been strong all his life actually had tears in his eyes.

Madam Cui couldn’t help but cry.. What was going on?
