Chapter 1075: 1086 Slumber (6)
Huo Jinnan remembered that there was still a bullet in his shoulder. He glanced at Qin Huan, stood up, and left the ward. His gaze fell on Ye Bai. "Can you remove the bullet from my shoulder right here?"
Ye Bai glanced at Huo Jinnan. "Can you endure it without anesthesia?"
Huo Jinnan looked at Ye Bai. "It’s fine."
Ye Bai nodded. "Alright, call Shen Mubai for a surgical knife."
Huo Jinnan looked at Qin Shaonan. "Can I borrow your phone?"
Qin Shaonan handed his phone to Huo Jinnan.
Huo Jinnan took it and called Shen Mubai. "Are you back at the office?"
Shen Mubai had just hung his clothes on his office chair and was about to research Qin Huan’s special condition when he received the call. He responded with an "Mm."
Huo Jinnan said, "Ask a nurse to send over a set of surgical tools."
Shen Mubai pushed up his glasses. "Surgery for you?"
Huo Jinnan replied, "Yes."
"Alright, wait a moment."
Shen Mubai was sitting at the computer, connected with his classmates and mentor in America, hung up, and picked up the internal phone to call the surgery department.
Shortly thereafter, medical personnel arrived at Qin Huan’s ward.
Ye Bai glanced and said, "Leave the surgical tools and supplies here, and you can leave."
Qin Shaonan stood aside, not feeling reassured. "Can you handle it alone?"
Ye Bai looked at Qin Shaonan. "Naturally, yes."
Qin Shaonan gestured to the medical staff delivering the surgical tools to leave and stood beside Ye Bai, ready to assist if needed.
Ye Bai automatically ignored Qin Shaonan.
She looked at Huo Jinnan. "Take off your upper clothing."
Huo Jinnan sat there, took off his shirt, and looked at Ye Bai.
Ye Bai walked closer, glanced at Huo Jinnan’s shoulder, frowned slightly. The bullet had penetrated deep into the flesh, and the scab around the wound had dried up and turned a bit dark.
The old man sat nearby watching, his gaze falling on Ye Bai. "Is it serious?"
Ye Bai looked at the old man. "If he can still carry Huanhuan, do you think it could be serious?"
The old man was speechless.
Ye Bai paid no more attention to the old man, picked up the surgical knife, and directly began extracting the bullet.
Huo Jinnan sat there, expression cold and proud, not uttering a sound or moving from start to finish.
Ye Bai glanced at Huo Jinnan. Truly blood brothers, just like Jin Bo, with tough and rough skin!
She said nothing more, applied the medicine she always carried, covered it with white gauze, and then looked at Qin Shaonan. "Use medical tape to secure it. I’ll go wash my hands."
The old man sat nearby watching, relieved when he saw Anan was alright. He turned around to find Gu Jizhou still there. "Uncle Guan."
Gu Jizhou glanced at the old man, his gaze falling on Huo Jinnan. "Can I wait until she wakes up before leaving?"
Upon hearing Gu Jizhou’s voice, Huo Jinnan looked up and gazed at him.
Gu Jizhou glanced back, but the overly deep gaze prevented him from meeting it, quickly shifting his sight to another direction.
After staring at Gu Jizhou for a long while, Huo Jinnan lit a cigarette with his uninjured shoulder. Remembering the phone call he made and how he helped block the two bodyguards, he thought he might really not have been able to see Qin Huan and the child.
His eyes darkened, and he spoke with a low, cold voice. "Ye Bai, help him with his wound."
Gu Jizhou was surprised and looked at Huo Jinnan.
Huo Jinnan looked at Gu Jizhou. "It’s my fault for not protecting her well. There’s no blame on you. You can leave whenever you want."
