Chapter 28 A life-saving grace should be repaid with one's body
At the hospital, Shu Yun described Shen Rujun's cough symptoms, and the doctor quickly wrote out a prescription. "Pay up, go to the pharmacy to get the medicine, and take a few courses of treatment."
Shu Yun, carrying the forms, walked out with Gu Jun. On the way, they ran into a familiar-looking nurse. "Shu Yun, what brings you here? Are you feeling unwell?"
The nurse's big, round eyes flashed with surprise, then she looked at Shu Yun with concern.
"I'm fine, I'm just here to get some cough medicine for my aunt."
The nurse breathed a sigh of relief. "Mmm."
Shu Yun met this nurse when she first transmigrated. At that time, she had drowned and water had entered her lungs. Even after being discharged from the hospital, she still needed to have regular check-ups and come to the hospital for IV drips. This nurse was the one who inserted and removed the needles for her. They gradually became familiar with each other.
The nurse's name is Xia Xiaomeng. Despite her small stature, she has a lot of energy. She runs around the hospital all day with a smile on her face. She has even received a banner from a patient, which makes her passion burn even brighter.
Xia Xiaomeng looked at the man standing silently beside Shu Yun, blinking her big eyes a few times in Shu Yun's direction: Who is this person?
Shu Yun: "Let me introduce you. This is my friend Xia Xiaomeng. Xiaomeng, this is my lover Gu Jun."
Every time Shu Yun introduced Gu Jun like this, she would feel embarrassed, especially when she met Xia Xiaomeng's bright, sparkling eyes, a blush would spread across her fair cheeks.
Xia Xiaomeng was not intimidated by Gu Jun's cold demeanor. Having worked at the hospital for several years, she had seen all sorts of people. She took a closer look at Gu Jun.
Gu Jun extended his hand. This was the first time Shu Yun had introduced her friend to him. He said solemnly, "Comrade Xia, I am Gu Jun, Shu Yun's lover. It's nice to meet you."
As he spoke, he took out a few candies from his pocket and handed them to Xia Xiaomeng. Shu Yun had no idea that he carried wedding candies with him.
"Hello, hello." Xia Xiaomeng looked at Gu Jun with her brows furrowed, as if there was some unsolvable mystery.
"Xiaomeng, is the medicine ready?" a nurse's voice urged.
Xia Xiaomeng quickly replied, "Yes, right away. Shu Yun, I'll head over now."
Shu Yun: "Bye-bye."
Holding a tray, Xia Xiaomeng and the head nurse prepared and bagged the medications needed by the patient. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she remembered who Shu Yun's lover was. She had met him before, but when she turned to look for Shu Yun, he was already gone.
The hospital was crowded, and many people were sitting on the benches in front of the pharmacy waiting for their medicine. After a while, they heard someone calling Shu Yun's name from the window. Gu Jun took the prescription and went over. Shu Yun sat on a chair and waited. She saw an elderly man with a full head of white hair walking slowly and carrying the prescription alone. Since there were no empty seats on the benches, he was leaning against the wall with a cane.
Shu Yun stood up and offered the old man a seat, saying, "Please sit down."
She stood up, walked outside, and looked around at the simple, unpretentious 1970s-style hospital. The exterior walls were off-white, and there was a small wooden window at the top of the stairs from which she could see several tall poplar trees. There was also a faint smell of disinfectant in the air.
She turned around, her eyes narrowing as she saw a figure rushing towards her from the corridor not far away.
The woman was moving too fast, and Shu Yun couldn't dodge in time. She was knocked straight to the ground, and the woman and the child in her arms also fell to the ground.
Shu Yun braced herself on the ground, her palm scraped but not seriously, though the woman must have fallen quite hard, as the sound of her hitting the ground was very loud.
"Comrade, are you alright?" Shu Yun stepped forward and picked up the child. Just as he was about to help the woman up, the woman stood up first and almost snatched the child from Shu Yun's arms.
Her behavior was somewhat unusual, and Shu Yun sensed that something was wrong.
Nowadays, the most common crimes in society are theft and child trafficking. Shu Yun looked suspiciously at the child who was thrown to the ground but remained motionless.
"Are you alright, comrade? I'll go with you to see a doctor. The child also fell quite badly."
"no, I'm fine."
The woman's voice was hoarse, her face completely covered by a scarf, and she kept her head down, so Shu Yun couldn't see her expression at all. She tentatively took a step forward, and the woman quickly retreated.
As she backed away, she covered the child's face tightly with a towel, as if afraid that someone would see the child. "I, I'm fine, and the child is fine too."
Is this how a normal person would react after a fall? Instead of checking their own injuries or their child's, they would cover their face tightly, as if they had a guilty conscience?
Shu Yun stepped forward with concern and grabbed the woman's arm. "The child didn't cry after falling. He must be suffocated. We're at the hospital, so I'll go with you to see a doctor."
"No need, I have to go urgently."
The woman refused, when suddenly, a crying female voice came from deep in the corridor, "Child, help! Someone is trying to kidnap the child! Help!"
Shu Yun and the woman both heard the sound. The woman suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with malice, and reached out to push Shu Yun away, saying, "Let go of me."
Shu Yun instinctively withdrew her hand and took a step back. The next moment, a warm body pressed against her back, and the familiar scent of soapberry made Shu Yun's back muscles relax a lot.
She caught a glimpse of the woman trying to run away and hurriedly tugged at Gu Jun's sleeve, saying anxiously, "Quick, go after her! She might have stolen the child."
Gu Jun's expression turned serious, and he quickly chased after her. Before the woman could even leave the hospital lobby, Gu Jun grabbed her first. Shu Yun caught up and took the child from the woman's arms.
She pulled back the swaddling clothes. The child was quietly closing his eyes. Shu Yun touched the child's forehead with the back of her hand; it was burning hot.
"Don't move." The hospital security team arrived upon hearing the commotion, along with the woman who had been crying earlier. Her face was sallow, and she was wearing a loose long dress, suggesting she was still in her postpartum period.
"Comrade, this child is mine. That woman secretly took him away while I was sleeping." She took the child from Shu Yun's arms, her face full of relief at surviving the ordeal. If she hadn't been sleeping so soundly and hadn't woken up, she wouldn't have known when the child was taken away.
“Look, the baby’s bracelet says ‘Yang Jing’s son’. I am Yang Jing, and this is my child.”
She gave birth to a son soon after. Her husband and mother-in-law were supposed to take turns visiting her at the hospital, but this morning her husband had to leave due to an urgent matter at work. She was too tired and accidentally dozed off. When she woke up, the baby in her arms was gone.
The commotion was quite loud, and many doctors and nurses rushed over. Shu Yun reminded them, "The child's forehead is very hot; he probably has a fever. Let's get him checked out first."
The woman was startled, and after quickly thanking Shu Yun and the other woman, she immediately went to find a doctor.
Because Shu Yun and Gu Jun were the parties involved, they waited at the spot for a while until the police arrived and took statements from them before preparing to leave.
Gu Jun examined the abrasions on Shu Yun's palm. Her skin was fair, and the broken skin was red and looked rather alarming.
Gu Jun was worried about the wound getting infected, so he had someone bandage it at the outpatient clinic. Coincidentally, he saw Xia Xiaomeng in the clinic.
"What happened outside just now? There was such a commotion." Xia Xiaomeng had been busy in the ward and hadn't had time to go out and see, so she was very curious now.
Shu Yun recounted the incident to Xia Xiaomeng, who patted her chest in relief, "Luckily, they caught them in time. If they had left the hospital, they might have had accomplices. Hospitals are where baby abductions are most likely to occur. I heard recently that three baby boys were stolen from a hospital in one night. So, it's best for families to stay home after a pregnant woman gives birth, otherwise it's too cozy."
"When you give birth, you'll have to make sure your partner keeps a close eye on you," Xia Xiaomeng said, blinking her big eyes at Shu Yun.
Shu Yun nudged her, "It's too early to talk about this." She was too embarrassed to even look at Gu Jun.
After Xia Xiaomeng finished bandaging Shu Yun, she glanced at Gu Jun and couldn't help but say, "You two are quite destined for each other."
"Didn't you say you wanted to thank them before? Now you're thanking them, but you're offering yourself in return." Xia Xiaomeng's expression was incredibly vivid, her eyebrows twitching.
"Huh?" Shu Yun was confused.
"Hmm?" Gu Jun also looked at Xia Xiaomeng.
