Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Jiang Yao was speechless when he saw Lu Xingzhi's concern and self-reproach in his eyes. She reached out and caressed the back of his hand with her hand. She agreed with a nod.

She decided to go to the hospital because he was concerned. She needed to put him at ease.

Xiao Shan wished he could drive the car as quickly as a rocket. His journey went unhindered because he knew Jiang Yao was in peril. Everyone made a determined effort to make room for him.

"Be careful when you carry her. Don't touch her stomach. Later, when you drive, you must keep her steady. Drive slowly," the military doctor said. In the end, he went with them. "I'll go with you. If anything happens along the way, I'll be able to take care of her."

Jiang Yao was a doctor. In addition to her help last time, the military doctor had an excellent impression of Jiang Yao. Jiang Yao had been fine, but she was pushed by someone for no reason and almost had a miscarriage. He was very concerned about her.

Even though the medicine was starting to take effect, the pill did not have much calming effect. Jiang Yao curled beside Lu Xingzhi's leg and leaned against his body. She did not have much strength to move.

"Hang in there. We'll be at the hospital soon." Lu Xingzhi held Jiang Yao's hand tightly. "Pinch me if it hurts. Bite me if you want. "

Jiang Yao wanted to roll her eyes at Lu Xingzhi. If she still had the strength to bite him, she was not in pain.

After the car drove out of the army base, Jiang Yao gradually fell asleep in Lu Xingzhi's arms. That was probably the first time she slept so well. No matter how bumpy the car was on the mountainous road or how many twists and turns it took, she did not feel them.

Jiang Yao was asleep. Once she fell asleep, she would not feel any pain.

Lu Xingzhi wiped the sweat off her forehead and turned to look at the military doctor. "Is it okay for her to fall asleep?"

"It's fine."

The military doctor shook his head. "She just took medicine, and the effects have started to kick in. Under normal circumstances, she would have to stay in bed to rest. It's good that she's asleep. She won't feel so bad after sleeping."

Lu Xingzhi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the military doctor's words. He lowered his head and looked at Jiang Yao, who curled into herself. He knew she must have worried about the child. She was also in pain.

She had fallen to the ground and stretched her hand toward him. She looked at him with a flustered and helpless expression. When she told him about the child, Lu Xingzhi felt that his heart had almost stopped beating.

He hugged her and looked at the blood on her dress. He prayed for her to be okay.

Jiang Yao finally reacted when the military doctor treated the wounds on Jiang Yao's hands and feet. She was in so much pain that she moved around in Lu Xingzhi's arms a few times. It felt like she was trying to run away.

The military doctor hurriedly called out to Lu Xingzhi, "Hold on tight, or else it will hurt even more if her wounds rub against her clothes. I'll treat her external injuries."

Lu Xingzhi did as he was told and reached out to pull Jiang Yao's wrists so that the military doctor could apply the medicine more conveniently. Her hands twitched a few times, and her eyelids moved. He did not know if she opened her eyes, but she whispered in a sobbing voice, "Xingzhi, I'm in pain."

It was only a short sentence, but it was like a sharp blade that pierced into Lu Xingzhi's heart.

"Be good; it will be over in a short while."

Lu Xingzhi lowered his head and kissed her cheek. He knew she was in pain, but he could do nothing to ease her pain.
