Chapter 354: The Last Face
face, "Fu Xiaoyao, I ask you again, are you sure you're not going back"Hearing Lu Hanchuan's question, Fu Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat. She felt inexplicably uneasy and subconsciously wanted to ope...Upon hearing her grandfather's voice, Fu Xiaoyao momentarily returned to her senses from her bewilderment and managed to pull at the corners of her mouth, forcing out a smile. "Yes," she replied.
"What is he doing at the woman surnamed Qi's" The old man sat up and asked.
Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyes, "He wants to find out the whereabouts of Qi Dongming and his men."
"Is that so." The old man raised his chin, temporarily believing her words, but his squinting eyes did not widen. "What did that woman surnamed Qi just say to you"
Fu Xiaoyao's eyes flickered a few times upon hearing this, and she shook her head. "It's nothing, Grandfather, don't ask."
She didn't want to tell her grandfather the truth.
However, the old man refused to give up, his voice growing even louder, "Speak!"
"Grandpa..." Fu Xiaoyao was full of distress.
The old man stared at her intently, waiting for her to speak.
Faced with the old man's determined gaze, Fu Xiaoyao had no choice but to compromise.
But just as she was about to organize her words and speak, her cell phone suddenly vibrated in her hand, interrupting the words she was about to say.
She recalled that Qi Ya had just said she would send her photos, and her heart suddenly sank. She quickly flipped her phone over and unlocked it.
As soon as the lock was opened, a photograph popped out.
At the moment she saw the photograph, Fu Xiaoyao's face instantly drained of color. Her vision blurred, and she felt all her strength leaving her body.
She stared intently at the photo, her eyes bloodshot and breathing rapidly.
In the photo, Qi Ya lay in Lu Hanchuan's arms. Both of them were unclothed, with only a thin blanket covering their bodies.
And whether it was Lu Hchuan or Qi Ya, both of them had their bare shoulders and necks covered in red spots after passion, which was so heart-wrenching to see.
At this moment, Fu Xiaoyao was dealt a tremendous blow and stimulation. Her body swayed, and she almost fainted.
However, she quickly grabbed the bedrail to steady herself and didn't actually fall.
But her phone, she didn't hold onto it, slipped and hit the ground with a clatter.
The old man lowered his head and happened to see the screen on his phone. His old eyes widened instantly, and he gasped for breath before collapsing onto the sickbed.
Boop! Beep!
The electrocardiogram machine by the bedside suddenly started beeping rapidly.
Fu Xiaoyao was awakened by the sound from the beating, she quickly regained her composure and looked at the sickbed. She saw the old man lying there with his eyes closed, unconscious and unaware of anything. She was so scared that her face turned pale, and she hurriedly checked on the old man's condition.
"Grandpa Grandpa" Fu Xiaoyao's voice trembled slightly as she called out to the old man twice, and then pushed him with her hand.
The old man didn't react, like a dead man.
Now, Fu Xiaoyao finally realized that something was wrong, she panicked completely, and she was about to cry.
She frantically pressed the emergency button on her bedside, then ran to the door of the bed and opened it, shouting to the outside, "Doctor, doctor! Come quickly!"
At the end of the hallway, Fu Bo led a team of medical personnel out of the elevator, ready to take the old man for surgery.
He had not taken two steps when he heard Fu Xiaoyao's heartbreaking cries.
Fu Bo's expression changed suddenly, realizing something. He disregarded his already stiff and unyielding legs and ran towards the ward.
The medical personnel behind him exchanged glances and, without hesitation, quickened their pace to catch up.
When they arrived at the ward, Uncle Fu saw Fu Xiaoyao leaning against the door frame, unsteady on her feet. He immediately asked, "Young mistress, what happened"
Fu Xiaoyao heard his voice, and finally a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes.
She quickly grabbed Fu Bo's hand, clutching it tightly like a life-saving straw. "Fu Bo, hurry, grandpa has fainted! His electrocardiogram is also unstable, please save grandpa quickly!"
"What" Fu Bo's pupils suddenly constricted, and his mind went blank for a moment.
But soon he came to his senses, shook off Fu Xiaoyao's hand, and rushed into the ward.
After he went in, the medical personnel just arrived.
Fu Xiaoyao took several deep breaths before managing to calm herself down. Then, she commanded the group and urged them to rush to help the old man.
Outside the room, Fu Xiaoyao stood anxiously, her two hands tightly clasped together. Her pale face was etched with worry for her grandfather.
"Madam," Fu Bo walked up to her with a stern face, "please tell me truthfully, how did Master suddenly become like this!"
He questioned sharply.
Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip, slowly turned around, guilt swirling in her eyes, "It's my fault!"
"What on earth is going on!" Uncle Fu raised his voice.
Fu Xiaoyao covered her face and choked up, "I saw that the surgery time was almost here, and Hanchuan hadn't come yet, so I called him, and then...and then..."
What she wanted to say next, she couldn't bring herself to utter. Her heart ached with a piercing pain.
But Fu Bo did not stop there, he shouted angrily, "And then what Tell me the truth!"
Fu Xiaoyao was frightened by Fu Bo's anger. After her body trembled, she didn't dare to hide anything and honestly explained the situation.
Only then did Fu Bo realize that the old man had been driven to this state by Lu Hanchuan and Qi Ya. His heart was filled with rage.
"Young Master..." He punched the icy wall, his eyes filled with malice, "It's the Young Master!"
Fu Xiaoyao looked at such a Uncle Fu, then glanced at the operating room with red lights on. Her small mouth opened slightly, wanting to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything. She turned and walked aside, leaning against the wall waiting for the result of her grandfather's rescue.
After about an hour, the light on the resuscitation room finally went out.
Fu Xiaoyao hurried a few steps forward and stood beside Fu Bo, gazing intently at the door of the rescue room.
The door opened, and a doctor walked out first.
Fu Xiaoyao didn't wait for Fu Bo, and immediately asked: "Doctor, how is my grandfather"
"Yes, Doctor, is the master alright" asked Fu Bo too.
The doctor removed his mask and cast a deep look over Fu Xiaoyao and Uncle Fu's faces before shaking his head regretfully, "I'm so sorry, we did everything we could. The old man was greatly stimulated, suffering a sudden heart attack. We couldn't save him..."
"What" Fu Xiaoyao's ears buzzed, and she felt the world spinning around her.
It's too late to save them...
"No!" She shook her head violently, unwilling to accept the truth. Grasping the doctor's hand, she pleaded urgently, "Doctor, tell me this isn't true. My grandfather is fine, right You're lying to us, aren't you"
Although Uncle Fu didn't speak, his gaze towards the doctor was as unified with Fu Xiaoyao's.
The doctor felt a pang of sympathy, but he couldn't lie to them out of compassion.
Therefore, after sighing, he retracted his hand, unable to bear their gaze, "I'm sorry, both of you. I haven't deceived you. Old Master Lu's life has truly come to an end. You can go in and see him one last time."
Having said that, the doctor quickly scurried past them and left.
Fu Xiaoyao looked at her own drooping hands, unwilling to believe this cruel truth any longer. At this moment, there was no way she couldn't believe it.
She turned her head, tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at the old man beside her, her voice filled with despair, "Fu Bo..."
Fu Bo's eyes were also red, but he didn't cry like she did. He was more easily able to accept reality than she was.
He patted her shoulder, "Madam Shao, let's go. We should go in and send off Master."
"What about Han Chuan" Fu Xiaoyao hadn't forgotten Lu Hanchuan.ng that she understood.She didn't ask him why he hadn't told Shao Sian that she was still alive.After all, this was his decision. Even as the person involved, she couldn't interfere.Moreover, he also...
