"So, you’re suffering , and you don’t plan on letting me help you?" Yan Ye asked, frowning.
"I can endure until I get to the hospital. Teacher Yan, you should go back!" An Hao, with her stomach churning violently, gently pushed Yan Ye away.
Seeing her stubbornness, and how much pain she was in, Yan Ye couldn’t stand by and do nothing.
Whether as a teacher or as a neighbor, and considering that the relationship between the two families was quite good, he felt compelled to act.
"An Hao, I believe if Qin Jian knew about this, he would definitely want me to take you to the hospital first." Without further discussion, Yan Ye took An Hao by the arm and started to walk outside.
An Hao felt she was on the verge of dehydration, her legs so weak that she hardly had any strength.
If the standoff continued, she estimated she’d collapse before getting the help she needed.
"Teacher Yan, I agree to let you take me to the hospital. Let go of me, I can walk on my own."
Seeing that An Hao had agreed, Yan Ye nodded, fetched his bicycle, and then slowly carried An Hao toward the hospital.
Xu Yinuo quietly followed behind them. The bicycle wasn’t fast, and with An Hao occasionally getting off to vomit, Xu Yinuo was able to keep up.
Seeing them enter the Military Medical University’s affiliated hospital, Xu Yinuo followed and secretly stood outside the door.
This being her first time trailing someone, Xu Yinuo felt terribly anxious, her heartbeat pounding in her ears.
Fearing she might be discovered and in a panic to leave, suddenly, a voice inside caught her attention and stopped her in her tracks.
"Vomiting severely? Are you married?"
"Judging from your symptoms, it doesn’t look like food poisoning. It’s more likely you’re pregnant. Go directly to the obstetrics department tomorrow and get a urine test to confirm." After speaking, the doctor murmured, "You’re probably about a month into the pregnancy."
Hearing this, footsteps sounded, and Xu Yinuo took off running as if her feet had grown wings.
Walking back, her mind was in turmoil.
And it had been more than a month, yet Qin Jian had been separated from her for more than a month!
Could the child be Yan Ye’s?
The thought that suddenly sprung to mind terrified Xu Yinuo...
Considering how Yan Ye favored An Hao ordinarily, perhaps, it could indeed be Yan Ye’s child.
In the emergency room.
The patient before An Hao left, and when her turn came, she was no longer able to endure.
Seeing Yan Ye, the doctor greeted him: "Director Yan, are you still around this late, or have you come again?"
Yan Ye introduced An Hao: "This is An Hao! My student! She suddenly started experiencing severe vomiting and diarrhea during class today!"
"Hmm. First it was diarrhea, then came the relentless vomiting. Now I... I feel like I need to go to the bathroom again..." An Hao said in distress.
"Are there any other symptoms?" the doctor asked.
An Hao shook her head: "No, that’s it. I’m worried it might be something I ate."
"Acute gastroenteritis," the doctor examined An Hao’s complexion. "You need to get an IV, you’re starting to dehydrate. You need to replenish glucose and electrolytes. Otherwise, the consequences can be severe."
"Okay." An Hao, who was also studying medicine, naturally understood the severity of dehydration. She would listen to whatever the doctor advised.
Thus, the doctor wrote a prescription, and Yan Ye took An Hao to the ward to get an IV.
Yan Ye knew that if he stayed with her, An Hao would definitely be uncomfortable, and it might also lead to gossip. He didn’t want to cause trouble for An Hao.
Hence, while An Hao was getting her IV, he stepped out to call Chief Ning.
