Chapter 480 - Regret
Chapter 480: Regret
Huo Tian looked at Chen Lin, who was looking at him helplessly. He did not know what to say.
After a while, he said, “I’m sorry. Let’s all calm down. Maybe I did something wrong. Let me calm down. Have a good rest first!”
With that, he walked out of the emergency room, leaving Chen Lin alone to look at his back and cry.
Chen Lin knew that there was a high chance of failure if she took this risky move, but as long as there was a one percent chance, she had to try.
The smart her was not overwhelmed by the excitement at the beginning. She had already guessed that in just a few days, Huo Tian could not develop any true feelings for her. He only did this for her health. Before she was discharged, Huo Tian might still express something to her. After all, the person he liked was still her sister-in-law.
She did not want to. She could not wait for that moment!
She firmly believed that love would develop over time. They just did not have enough time to nurture their feelings!
Therefore, she wanted to buy more time for her and Huo Tian. Even if it was stolen time, as long as she interacted with him long enough, she was confident that she could win Huo Tian’s heart.
She really could not think of a better way. The only thing she could do was to make her illness heal slower.
Therefore, she had observed and planned for a long time before she thought of using medical pure alcohol.
Medical pure alcohol only required a small amount to achieve the greatest damage. Furthermore, the volume and taste were the smallest, making it the easiest to detect.
After taking a few sips of alcohol, she also drank a lot of water and even chewed a few chewing gum to cover the smell of alcohol.
Then, she lay on the bed and waited for the alcohol to take effect.
However, as she was inexperienced and did not have medical knowledge, she did not know the power of drinking high-quality alcohol on an empty stomach.
She had originally thought that since Huo Tian was here, she would tell him that she was not feeling well and get the doctor to detect that the remaining alcohol in her body had not been ranked up. The indicators had not returned to normal, and he would arrange for her to stay for a few more weeks.
However, she did not expect to be sent to the emergency room in a coma. Under the doctor’s examination, she could no longer hide the fact that she had taken alcohol.
Huo Tian’s lonely, conflicted, and heartless back made Chen Lin’s heart empty.
Her two hands were tightly wrapped around each other, and she was instantly extremely nervous.
What did Huo Tian mean when he said to calm down? Was he extremely disappointed in her? Did he hate her? Did he not dare to treat and comfort her in this warm way anymore? Did he not plan to approach her again in this lifetime?
When she thought of this, Chen Lin was extremely depressed. She covered her head with the blanket and sobbed softly.
Huo Tian heard this soft sob.
He walked out of the ward, but he did not dare to go too far. He only dared to stand near the door.
After all, Chen Lin had just been rescued and could not be left alone.
Hearing her cry, he was frustrated. He walked to the smoking area helplessly and took out a cigarette to light it. Ever since he fell in love with Bai Ran, he had not smoked for a long time. Other than when he was too stressed to take it, he would use a cigarette to relieve himself.
He did not expect his good intentions to have the opposite effect. In order to keep him, Chen Lin did not hesitate to hurt her body and almost lost her life.
If she drank a few more sips… he dared not think about it.
It seemed like he had underestimated the extent of Chen Lin’s love for him and her paranoia. He had even overestimated his control in this matter.
Chen Lin’s thoughts would not follow his wishes at all.
Where should he go now?
As he was thinking, Chen Lin’s doctor walked to the emergency room.
No matter what, Chen Lin’s condition was the most important.
Huo Tian quickly walked forward and pulled the doctor to the side to ensure that Chen Lin could not hear him. He asked, “Doctor, how is this young lady? How much alcohol has she drunk? Will it hurt her body irreversibly? Will her brain be damaged? How long will she need to be treated?”
The doctor could see his anxiety. He originally wanted to blame him for not protecting her well, but he could not bear to do so now.
The doctor replied silently, “Don’t be too worried. She should have drunk less than 100 milliliters. This amount is only enough to poison her. It’s not enough to kill her. From the looks of it, her life is no longer in danger.”
After a while, he said hesitantly, “But the damage to the body… It’s difficult to say now. It depends on the recovery. There was a clinical example previously. The patient mistakenly took industrial alcohol as white wine, and later…”
