"Hm" Hao Ren was taken aback for a moment and then, his blood rushed to his head, "What's the situation now"
"I called for an ambulance, but they haven't arrived yet!" Uncle Wang said anxiously from the other end of the phone.
"Zhao Jiayin! Help me take back my book and bring it to my dorm room!" Hao Ren stood up abruptly and rushed out of the classroom with his mobile phone in hand.
The teacher, who was lecturing in class, gaped as Hao Ren passed by him. After regaining his senses, he felt extremely indignant: How dare these students ignore their teachers and leave class halfway through a lecture!
Meanwhile, Hao Ren held the mobile phone to his ear with one hand while rushing out of the teaching building towards the school gate, "Uncle Wang, don't worry. There's a hospital near the resort area; did you try calling them directly for help"
"I couldn't find their contact number," Uncle Wang was also flustered on his end.
Hao Ren sighed inwardly at how clueless Uncle Wang was and sprinted out of the school gate, then flagged down a taxi.
Since the school was located in a semi-suburban area, it was already close to 8 PM. There weren't many taxis passing by here.
After waiting for quite some time, finally a few taxis drove past but they were all occupied!
Holding his phone conversation with Uncle Wang, Hao Ren stood at the intersection and waited for half a minute, which felt like an eternity to him.
He was tempted to jump onto the road directly and spread out his arms in front of an oncoming car!
While comforting Uncle Wang on the phone not to be anxious, he himself was restless like an ant on a hot pan!
In this moment of heated emotions, he watched a red sedan drive by, and suddenly in his mind appeared Zhao Hongyu driving her red Ferrari with grace and vigor!
Zhao Hongyu! Hao Ren shivered inside!
"Uncle Wang, I need to hang up now. I'm going to find someone for help! If there's any problem, please call me back!" Hao Ren disconnected the call and hastily searched through his contacts to dial Zhao Hongyu's number.
This contact was given by Zhao Hongyu when Hao Ren accompanied Zhao Yanzi on a mountain trip; he never expected that it would come in handy now.
Technically, he shouldn't have bothered Aunt and Uncle Zhang with his own family matters, but the situation being urgent and his parents not yet back from overseas, the only people Hao Ren could think of who might be able to help were Zhao Yanzi's parents.
The phone rang continuously for six times without anyone picking up. Hao Ren was so anxious he nearly jumped on both feet as sweat gathered in his palms around the mobile.
"Hello" Suddenly, someone picked up at the other end of the line and Zhao Hongyu's gentle voice came through.
"Mother, it's me!" Hao Ren exclaimed urgently.
"Oh, Ah Ren. Why didn't you come over to help Ah Zi with her lessons today I was actually about to call you."
Today evening I have a class and last week I skipped my classes to tutor Ah Zi. He explained in his mind but now wasn’t the time for explanations. Hao Ren quickly added, "My grandma... she...
He didn't know why, but hearing Zhao Hongyu's voice made him feel both moved and excited; he was at a loss on how to continue.
"What happened Don't be anxious, take your time," Zhao Hongyu sensed something amiss from Hao Ren’s end of the line, her tone becoming more urgent.
"My grandma fainted due to high blood pressure and needs medical attention. But Uncle Wang who usually takes care of her doesn’t know how to drive!" Hao Ren took a breath and explained after sorting out his thoughts.
"Give me the address, I’ll be right there!" Zhao Hongyu said decisively.
"The Bihai Jinsha Resort in the southern suburbs of Donghai City, enter through the south gate and it's the sixth building on your right, apartment number 16!" Hao Ren said. He felt his heart pounding as if it were about to leap out of his throat, and his arm holding the phone was trembling slightly.
"Alright! I'm heading over there now! If anything happens, keep in touch!" Zhao Hongyu hung up the call; he must have set off immediately.
After hanging up, Hao Ren stood at the main entrance of the school feeling lost and confused. The road ahead was dark except for fleeting beams of unstable light brought by passing cars.
Buzz... His phone suddenly vibrated again. Hao Ren quickly picked it up to hear Zhao Guang's steady voice saying, "You're still at the school, right I'll come to pick you up at the front gate in about ten minutes."
Hao Ren made a sound of acknowledgment before the call disconnected.
He continued standing on the empty ground in front of the school's main entrance, letting the chilly wind penetrate through his shirt.
Click! Click!
The night wind blew against the large banner above the school gate, producing loud flapping sounds.
Hao Ren turned around and looked at the banner with a sudden sense of resentment.
Squeak... A black Chevrolet pulled up in front of Hao Ren.
Zhao Guang leaned out of the car window, "Get in. We'll head home and wait for news."
Hao Ren nodded woodenly and got into the car. When he sat down inside, he noticed Zhao Yanzi was already there too.
She looked at Hao Ren with a worried and sympathetic gaze, clearly concerned about him and so had come along with her father to pick him up.
The car started smoothly and headed towards Zhao Yanzi's home. From Zhao Yanzi’s house to Donghai University wasn't far if driving oneself.
Hao Ren sat pale-faced in the car, then asked Zhao Guang who was driving ahead of him, "How did Auntie get there"
"I'll drive there," Zhao Guang replied.
Hao Ren was slightly disappointed, thinking that Zhao Hongyu would施展大神通and fly there.
Possibly knowing what Hao Ren was thinking, Zhao Guang said again, "Don't worry. Your aunt driving is not much slower than flying. Besides, flying in the air has too many restrictions. If we encounter patrolling inspectors questioning us, it might waste time. Moreover, flying there is simple, but moving your grandma to the hospital would be another hassle."
"Mm," Hao Ren nodded. He was already grateful for Zhao Yanzi's family helping out; now he just hoped that his grandmother wouldn't have any problems.
It only took about ten minutes to drive from Donghai University to Zhao Yanzi's house. After returning home, Zhao Guang parked the car and brought Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi into the house.
The warm and familiar atmosphere in the house slightly calmed Hao Ren's anxious feelings.
Picking up his phone, he called home again. Uncle Wang answered; Hao Ren immediately asked him about his grandmother’s condition.
"Just now a woman came, saying she was your friend. She did some emergency treatment for your grandma and then carried her into a sports car before driving away. It just happened less than a minute ago. My head is in a mess, I forgot to ask who she was," Uncle Wang said over the phone.
Sigh, he can cook well usually but when it comes to dealing with matters, one really can't rely on this Uncle Wang. Hao Ren slightly blamed Uncle Wang for being absent-minded in his heart but still comforted him a little before hanging up the call.
His grandmother fell ill and he was at a loss. Without a hospital phone number or emergency measures, he needed his grandson studying outside to guide him remotely. A stranger came in without asking any questions and took grandma away directly...
Hao Ren's thoughts became more and more vexed. He felt that leaving Grandma under Uncle Wang’s care alone wasn't very safe. He regretted not being able to fly or dig tunnels; if something happened to his grandmother, he couldn’t help.
Worriedly frowning, Hao Ren looked up at the clock in the living room and thought Zhao Hongyu arriving at the seaside villa complex in just over twenty minutes was quite fast.
Zhao Guang and Zhao Yanzi were sitting with Hao Ren in the living room. In this situation, they didn’t go about their own business.
About another twenty minutes later, the phone in the living room suddenly rang.
Zhao Guang picked up the call, listened for a moment saying "mm," and then turned to Hao Ren, “It’s alright now. Hongyu has already taken your grandma to Dongfang Hospital in town. They are currently treating her. The doctor says there's no major issue.”th properties neither metallic nor wooden, unbreakable. Where did you get it""It's Ceng Yitao's life-bound magical treasure that I took over," Hao Ren said.Su Han was slightly surprised. She wasn't th...
