Chapter 413 The Warning Lines (Part One)


    The armoured vehicle dashed towards the city. The piercing siren prated the cold night, petrifying


    the creatures of the vast wilderness. Daisy turned a deaf ear to her surroundings. Her heart beat fast


    as she was greatly concerned about the man lying on her chest. He was all she cared for now.


    "Huh..." He slightly coughed in her arms. His sound was so weak, yet it still made her heart skip a beat.


    She was delighted to see his movement. It meant he was still alive. However, what happened the next


    second made her heart freeze. Daisy felt as if she couldn''t breathe anymore.


    "Mrs. Mu, it''s getting worse. Mr. Mu is coughing up blood now. His nose is also full of blood." As he was


    facing Edward, Luke noticed what was going on straightaway.


    "Hawkeye, floor it. Hurry up!" The distance seemed endless. Daisy''s heart was heavy with heartache.


    She felt hopeless as the destination seemed impossible to reach. She hated to admit that she was


    weak and helpless. At this moment, a horrible desperation seized her. She had never been this


    petrified before, even when she was chased away by the Ouyang family.


    "Yes, Colonel." Despite the vehicle already reaching top speed, Hawkeye still obeyed hermand.


    He knew right now, the Colonel''s attention was not on their speed at all, but on the heavily wounded


    handsome man in her arms.


    "Honey, please don''t scare me like this. You haven''t finished the things you promised me yet. You can''t


    leave me alone like this..." Daisy''s hands trembled uncontrobly. She had never been this desperate.


    Even when she was walking between life and death, she was not this scared. She couldn''t possibly


    figure out how to carry on with her own life if she ever lost him.


    "I am so sorry! So sorry! So sorry! I... shouldn''t have acted impulsively. I shouldn''t... have stayed there


    and tried to teach Hawk a lesson. Otherwise, we could have retreated earlier and you wouldn''t get hurt


    rescuing me."


    Although she promised him that she would never say "sorry" to his face, she couldn''t help apologizing


    to him right now. She only hoped that by saying sorry to him, things would go back to normal, to a time


    when he was still safe and sound. The guilt and remorse nearly broke her heart, and tears filled her


    eyes. She wanted nothing more than hispanionship for a lifetime. As long as he could make it, she


    would rather him get annoyed by her mumbling "sorry" to his face, than see him lying motionless in her


    arms.


    As if he heard her words, Edward''s eyebrows slightly furrowed. His palm in her hands also moved a


    little. It seemed that he was really bothered by her apology. Even if he was heavily wounded, he still


    cared about the issue of hearing her saying sorry.


    "Mrs. Mu, don''t worry too much. Mr. Mu is a lucky man and he will survive this. We won''t lose him."


    Luke was also petrified by the situation. He saw the preupied Daisy and felt greatly sorry for her.


    However, as a brave man, he must take control of the situation and remain calm. Right now, he needed


    to focus so he could attend to Edward better.


    "Luke, are we there yet? Is everything gonna be alright?" Tears kept running down her cheeks. Daisy


    couldn''t help crying. She cried as if life itself were going to end. All these years of hardship and sorrow


    flooded towards her, Daisy found it hard to wipe away the tears that refused to leave her eyes.


    "We are entering the downtown area. I hope the road is smooth." Luke raised his eyebrow. He was


    concerned about the traffic in the city. Although it was midnight, the streets were still asionally


    packed with cars. He was afraid that the traffic lights would also dy their progress.


    "Hawkeye, please notify the city center of our location and apply for a green path." A green path meant


    that cops would block off intersections -- they wouldn''t have to deal with other vehiclesing in from


    sidestreets. Daisy finally came to her senses and hastily gave orders to Hawkeye. It was critical that


    they could move along as smoothly as possible.


    "Colonel, don''t worry. Major General Gu has already approved the green path for us. Otherwise, we


    wouldn''t be moving along this smoothly so far." Hawkeye knew Kevin well enough. The Major General


    was a man who paid great attention to elementary details. Therefore, it came to him as no surprise that


    as soon as they entered the city, each intersection was blocked by police cars with ring lights.


    Behind them, the traffic was also efficiently stopped by the traffic officers.


    The whole city was suffering a tension at midnight. People could feel it in the air. Pedestrians and cars


    were diverted to a different route. Everyone could tell that something major had happened, however


    they didn''t have a clue what exactly was going on. The traffic officers who were on holiday were


    urgently called back to be put on duty. Under the direct order from the Department Chief, warning lines


    were put all around the city.


    It was at this moment that Luke felt the vast difference between civilians and army officials. His young


    mistress could easily get things done and got them a green path. The whole city was making a way for


    them to travel through without any glitch. It was not something that mere money could manage. It


    urred to Luke that sometimes power outweighed money.


    The dark green coloured AFV dashed toward Tom Qin''s privileged hospital like a storm. With the help


    of both the traffic department and police department, they were unstoppable all the way. The traffic


    lights were always green and the streets were thoroughly emptied for them. Apart from police officers,


    they didn''t see any civilians in the streets. The Major General had done them a great favor and made


    things possible for them.


    Heads turned to the AFV as it stormed into the far distance. People started to guess who on earth was


    inside the vehicle. He must be someone of great importance as all the policemen in the city were called


    to make way for him. He couldn''t be some mere low-ranking official. People used to gossip about the


    youngest female colonel in the city being the wife of the CEO of FX International Group, and now there


    was something new for them to gossip about.


    "Move, move, move. Everyone, hurry up!" As soon as the AFV pulled in front of the hospital, the waiting


    medical team jumped into action. It was a matter of life and death, no one dared to ck off at this


    critical moment. The patient must be someone important, as the head of the hospital had given clear


    orders to treat him with priority.


    Edward was efficiently transferred onto a stretcher. An oxygen mask covered his face. Daisy''s clothes


    were stained with his blood, but she couldn''t care less about how she looked right now. She held onto


    his hand tightly, she simply couldn''t let him go.


    Tom had fully prepared for the forting surgery. He cautiously paced in front of the surgery room,


    his face looked serious. He was concerned about Edward''s wound. He knew he was shot in the chest


    but he had no idea where exactly the bullet entered. The limited information he got from Luke''s call


    didn''t help much as he couldn''t make an educated guess and foresee the oue of the surgery.


    Finally, with the stretchering to his way, Tom breathed a sigh of relief and earnestly guided them


    into the waiting room.


    "Daisy, rx please. He will make it." Tom quickly checked Edward''s wound whileforting Daisy so


    she could calm down.


    "Tom, please, please save Edward''s life for me." At the sight of Tom, Daisy felt much better. She finally


    saw a glimpse of hope in his gaze. Edward once told her that Tom''s medical skills were extraordinary.

    "Trust me. I won''t let you down. I will save his life and nothing can take him away from you." Tom made


    a swift yet thorough check on Edward. He was heavily wounded, worse than he had expected.


    However, he was confident he could use his surgical skills to bring him back to health. Tom was


    determined to give Daisy a hale and hearty Edward through his skills.


    "Hurry up. Get him onto the table. Set up an IV line ASAP. Start transferring blood to the patient and


    bring his oxygen levels up. Prepare Coramine 0.375g and Robeline 3mg to drip."


    Tom rapidly spoke to his assistants, his voice was calm and authoritative. Then he nodded to Daisy and


    walked straight into the surgery room. The door slowly closed in front of Daisy, her heart seized.


    "Doctor Qin, the patient has a low heart rate and his blood pressure is plunging." The assistant kept a


    close eye on the situation and updated Tom.


    "Insert 1mg epinephrine through IV line and use Dopamine to increase the pressure." Tom''s eyebrows


    furrowed more deeply. It was quite normal toe across abnormalities during a surgery. However, as


    a trained professional, he knew how to remain calm. In the face of danger, the calmer he was, the


    better solution he coulde up with.
