Chapter 346: Tending Wounds-III
Seeing the grim expression only bad thoughts could filled Xiao Yun's mind. She exited the car and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Tian Yi came back." Hi Gu Yan replied. It was supposed to be a good news if it wasn't only because of the expression Hi Gu Yan had now. Wang Li Lei also knit his brows as he had not heard anything about Tian Yi coming back home. "But he is in a critical condition now." Hearing the words, they didn't waste any more seconds and entered the house. Qingge and Wang Shi Ning stood outside the house, staying at the couch until they saw the two entering.
When Wang Shi Ning and Qingge had just arrived to Li Lei's home with the assistance of Hi Gu Yan, they chose to wait for Xiao Yun and Wang Li Lei before having dinner and talked for a long time in the living room when suddenly a maid came to their view.
"Ah, miss that- that, someone came to the house." said the maid. Seeing that Wang Li Lei, Xiao Yun, Yue, and Jang Hyun was not home, she could only ask Qingge who she knew to be Wang Li Lei's relative.
"And what's wrong?" Hi Gu Yan came by the maid, surprising her.
Seeing Hi Gu Yan's face, bright light as if hope had come to her flashed to her eyes. "It's mister Tian Yi! He collapsed in front of the house and there was blood all over." The maid seemed to be greatly shaken that she couldn't spoke without having her words broken.
"What's wrong? Who is Tian Yi?" Wang Shi Ning asked.
"I will fill the informations later miss, I will have to go now, please excuse us." And zhi Gu Yan dashed outside the house to find that it was indeed Tian Yi who had laid down with a pale face in front of the house. There was a great amount of blood coloring the floor where Tian Yi had fallen on, his left thigh and lower abdomen was wrapped with white bandage which had turned red, after being soaked with the blood that flowed out from his wounds.
Taking him by his arm carefully, Hi Gu Yan then ordered the maid beside him, "Call the doctor and tell someone to bring first aid kit and a clean room."
"Yes sir!" the maid rushed from the place to do what Tian Yi had instructed him to.
Now back to the present, Xiao Yun saw the bandaged which was soaked with red liquid of blood and cottons filled the trash bucket. Tian Yi was laying on the bed half of his lower body was covered with quilt with the upper part of his body had been wrapped and treated with clean white bandage. His face was pale and the maid beside him who had been wiping his cold sweats changed the wet towel which was used to lower Tian Yi's temperature.
"What happened?" Xiao Yun asked, her legs quickly went to see Tian Yi's condition closed, her heart felt as if it had fallen low to her stomach.
"No one know miss, he just suddenly appeared in front of the house, unconscious." Hi Gu Yan replied, like Xiao Yun he was also surprised to see his partner bleeding out almost as if he was going to die.
"Have you called the doctor yet?" asked Wang Li Lei conforming with Hi Gu Yan for the man to give a quick nod. "What is his condition now?"
"He have passed the worst condition for now." Xiao Yun breathes a relief breath from Hi Gu Yan's words. Jang Hyun who stood on the edge of the door with Wang Shi Ning and Qingge clenched his fists tight. Tian Yi may be the one who had volunteered to be a spy in Choi Group but he was the one who had proposed the idea and felt guilty after seeing how his condition now. But he wasn't alone there was also people who felt guilty upon seeing Tian Yi's condition now.
"The doctor also said that the wound had been cleanly sutured and that he must have collapsed because the wounds reopens. It's only a matter of time until he woke up. Perhaps two days the fastest."
"That long?" Xiao Yun questioned for Hi Gu Yan to nod.
"The doctor wasn't sure but it seems that the wounds was still fresh about a day or two days ago, possibly from a wound of a knife and a gun." Xiao Yun narrowed her eyes, that would mean the wounds Tian Yi had came from a fight he had before he came back home.
"Was there nothing with him or anyone?" Wang Li Lei questioned. Tian Yi was supposed to be still in Korea if he came back there would someone who had brought him back home, especially with the wounds he had.
"No one but I hadn't checked the CCTV yet."
"I will go, master." Jang Hyun said and left soon after his words.
"Cousin Lei, what's wrong, is this man someone you know?" Wang Shi Ning asked hesitantly as the air seemed to be very thin now.
"Yes, he is my subordinate. Sorry Qingge, can you two retire to your room first?" Qingge being the sensible woman quickly nod and brought Wang Shi Ning with her as she left the room and once the door was closed with only Hi Gu Yan, Wang Li Lei, Xiao Yun sat down on the sit with her hand on her forehead.
"You should go and rest now, Xiao Yun. I will take care of the rest." said Wang Li Lei holding her hands.
"No, I'm fine, I don't think I could stay calm now if I'm not here." she said standing up only to feel her energy drained out.
"Please. You can stay with Wang Shi Ning and Qingge for now, if anything occur, I will call you first." he said and kissed her forehead. Xiao Yun didn't feel it was right for her to stay in the room but to her disappointment there wasn't also anything she could do by sitting in the room. She slowly gave a small nod with her lips pursed tight.
"Don't worry, he would be fine." Xiao Yun smiled gratefully at his encouragement and stood up from her seat when she felt her hand pulled. Xiao Yun was taken by surprise that someone had pulled her hand and her eyes snapped to find Tian Yi who had pulled her hand. His eyes were half open and it seemed as if he had many things to put to words but nothing could come out from his throat now.
"Tian Yi, you've woke up?!" Xiao Yun asked in panic and when she squinted her eyes she find his lips moving and moved close to hear what he was speaking. The first sentence came as a wordless whispers to her ears which was barely inaudible but she tried hard to understand the words Tian Yi tried to spoke. Hi Gu Yan who was ordered by Wang Li Lei walked outside of the room to call the doctor who was still present inside the house.
"He there..." was the only words she managed to catch from Tian Yi before his hand fell slack to the side of the bed. His eyes were closed again where his expression became rigid from the pain he felt.
