Chapter 1033: Woke up
Darkness….
It was darkness everywhere….
A ray of light blinded Dong Xuebing.
Due to the brightness, Dong Xuebing opened his eyes to a slit and quickly closed them again. He rested a while and opened his eyes slowly again. His body was aching, and he tried to move his fingers. He could move them with difficulties, and he was cold. He felt like he was running a high fever.
Where am I?
Dong Xuebing could hear machines beeping around him. Am I in the hospital?
Dong Xuebing regained consciousness slowly and looked around. He saw his mother sobbing beside him.
Dong Xuebing said. “Mum….”
Luan Xiaoping looked up. “Son! You are awake!”
“Why are you crying?” Dong Xuebing wanted to wipe the tears off his mother’s face, but he could not move his hand.
“Don’t move….” Luan Xiaoping quickly stopped Dong Xuebing. “Just lay there and don’t move.”
“Where am I? What time is it now?” Dong Xuebing did not know how long he had been unconscious.
“Silly child. You are at the hospital.” Luan Xiaoping wiped her tears. “You are in a coma for one day and one night. Huilan, Yunxuan, and I were worried sick.”
“One day?”
“You fell unconscious yesterday morning.”
“Err…. Sorry, mum.” Dong Xuebing forced a smile.
Luan Xiaoping replied. “Stop talking. I will get the doctor.”
Luan Xiaoping ran out of the ward and shouted. “Doctor! Doctor! My son is awake!”
About 10 seconds later, seven doctors and nurses rushed into the ward. Dong Xuebing had met most of them.
Dong Xuebing had spent more time in the hospital than most people. He had been hospitalized now and then and knew most of the people there. He smiled. “Sorry to trouble you all again.”
A doctor quickly stopped Dong Xuebing. “Stop talking. Let us check your condition first.”
“Thank you.” Dong Xuebing was courteous to everyone because of the nature of his work.
The doctors started to examine Dong Xuebing.
Fifteen minutes later….
A doctor took off his stethoscope and turned to Luan Xiaoping. “Don’t worry. Director Dong is out of danger now. He just needs to stay here for observations for a few days.”
“That means he might still be in danger?!” Luan Xiaoping asked worryingly.
The doctor paused for a second. “Not really. Based on our experiences, he should be out of danger now.”
Dong Xuebing looked at his mother. “Mum, I said many times. I will not die easily. I will be fine.”
Another doctor said. “That’s right, Sis. Director Dong can be discharged after a few days. Most of his injuries are not serious. He is running a fever because some of his wounds are inflamed. A specialist will be coming in this afternoon to treat him. Dong worry. We had treated Director Dong several times, and his body condition is way better than everyone I had met.”
Doctors seldom guarantee a patient’s recovery to the family members as no one knows what will happen tomorrow. The patient might seem fine today, and his condition might worsen the next day. The doctors do not want to take responsibility and will never say such things.
However, their patient is Dong Xuebing. They are confident of his body condition.
Luan Xiaoping was worried about Dong Xuebing and asked the doctors many questions.
The City leaders ordered the hospital to save Dong Xuebing at all costs, and the doctors and nurses would be fired if anything happened to him. However, the hospital staff was not worried. They know Dong Xuebing will not die.
How can someone who can donate 2 liters of blood die so quickly?
With injuries, Dong Xuebing can hold his breath for over ten minutes in freezing water.
He survived more than ten days without food and water during the earthquake.
Dong Xuebing had survived many dangerous situations, and he is awake now. How can he be in danger?
Bullshit!
If Dong Xuebing could die so quickly, he would not be Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing might be the only survivor when the world ends.
It’s impossible to die with his body.
Have you met anyone who can hold his breath for so long in freezing water?
Only Dong Xuebing can do it.
A while later.
Luan Xiaoping was relieved after all the doctors’ assurance. She stroked Dong Xuebing’s face when the doctors left the ward. “I almost got a heart attack when I saw the news. Why did you go into the water when so many people were around?! Are you the only one who can swim?! Why must it be you every time?”
Dong Xuebing smiled wearily. “I am only trying to save them, and the water is too cold for the rest.”
“Then why must it be you?”
“Err…. They might die if they enter the water. It’s dangerous, and I don’t have time to think. Many people had kneeled before us, and I must do something.”
Luan Xiaoping scolded. “They are the ones who attacked and scolded you. Do you think they will be grateful?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “It’s different. I did not save them because I want them to be grateful to me.”
