I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack Chapter 420 Inquiry

420 Inquiry
Shen Ruojing furrowed her brows and swiftly applied acupuncture. When she heard his words, she pursed her lips. “Speak.”
Her hands didn’t cease moving.
The bullet had exploded upon entering Song Chen’s body, and the location of the wound was covered in messy patches of flesh and blood.
To make it even worse, the shattered fragments of the bullets had embedded into his organs. Song Chen’s situation was indeed precarious!
Song Chen’s lungs were also injured and he couldn’t catch his breath, which made speaking even harder. “It was they who made me impersonate Chu Cichen…I did it for money…but I truly fell in love with you. However…I couldn’t look for you or they would kill my younger sister…”
Chu Cichen immediately asked, “Who is ‘they’?”
“They are…”
Song Chen’s mouth opened and closed, but due to his lung injury, he couldn’t speak.
Chu Cichen hurriedly changed to another question. “Why do you look so alike to me?”
Song Chen looked at him. “Be…”
He wasn’t able to complete the sentence.
He quickly clutched his throat, as if he wanted to reveal the truth before he died…
Chu Cichen felt even more anxious. They had investigated for such a long time before this person took the initiative to appear. If he died now, they would run out of clues!
He looked at Shen Ruojing and saw her speaking in a heavy manner, “Shut up, you won’t die. Just speak when you are able to.”
It was as though he could hear her words. Song Chen then stopped persisting, and the instant he relaxed, he immediately fell unconscious.
Shen Ruojing controlled his bleeding. If they wanted to remove the fragments inside, they would have to go to a hospital.
The ambulance soon arrived and the nurses put Song Chen on a stretcher before they carried him down.
Shen Ruojing followed behind them, and just when they arrived downstairs, she heard a weak voice calling out, “Elder brother? Elder brother! What happened to you? Elder brother! Boohoo!”
Shen Ruojing lifted her head and saw a 9-year-old girl with her school bag. She should have just returned home after she ended class. At this moment, the little girl tossed her bag away and ran toward the stretcher.
The medical staff nearby immediately stopped her. “Little friend, we have to bring your elder brother to the hospital for an operation…”
The little girl immediately started crying.
When Shen Ruojing saw her, she immediately looked at Chu Cichen. The two of them revealed a shocked expression because this little girl was none other than the little girl named Little Mi, the patient who had wanted to commit suicide due to the special medicine being too expensive!
Shen Ruojing still remembered Little Mi saying that her elder brother only earned $10,000 per month and could barely support their medical expenses…So, it turned out that her elder brother was actually Song Chen?!
At this instant, Shen Ruojing suddenly felt that Little Mi’s appearance had resolved one of her confusions.
Whenever she saw Song Chen, she kept feeling puzzled. Why was it that even after six years, Song Chen still looked so youthful and didn’t have the air of a mature man at all?
It was as though time had stopped for him. Every time she looked at him, she would feel that she had been transported back in time.
So, the reason he was so frail and skinny was that he was ill! He was a patient that needed the gene-deficient agent P+ medicine.
It wasn’t that time had stopped for him six years ago and he didn’t grow up. Rather, his sickness made it difficult for his body to grow stronger.
The sense of bizarreness she felt every time she saw Song Chen finally had a scientific explanation.
As for the other questions, she decided to wait until he woke up before she continued to ask.
Just when she was pondering, Little Mi suddenly shouted, “Brother Doctor, please wait. Please wait…You have to wait for me!”
After she shouted, she pushed everyone aside as she rushed up. The little fellow ran very quickly and soon came back with a wallet in her hands. “My elder brother’s protective amulet is within. Please let him wear it so it can protect him during the operation!”
Maybe it was because she was too nervous, she tripped and fell before Shen Ruojing.
The wallet in her hands also fell onto the ground and opened from the impact.
As a result, the photo stored within the wallet simply showed itself in front of Shen Ruojing.
Shen Ruojing’s gaze sank as she stared at the photo.
She then bent and picked it up.
The person in the photo was a cool-looking female standing underneath a tree. The female had her head lifted, and sunlight could be seen streaming through the gaps of the tree leaves, cascading on her body with a gentle glow.
That female was none other than the 20-year-old Shen Ruojing!
“Elder sister! Please return the photo to me!” Little Mi jumped up and snatched the photo away from Shen Ruojing’s hands. She then gently wiped it and placed it back into the wallet. “Every time before my brother went to work, he would bring the photo along with him. He said before that the photo is his protective amulet, it is also the only hope that let him continue living!”
After saying that, Little Mi ran to Song Chen who was being moved into the ambulance, and stuffed the photo in her hands into his pocket.
The little girl didn’t know that when an operation was being done, the patient had to be stripped of all clothes.
She only knew her elder brother mustn’t die…
–
Three hours later.
The lights in the operating theater went out, and the door was pushed open as the doctor walked out in fatigue.
Little Mi rushed over and asked, “Doctor, how is my elder brother?”
The doctor glanced at her before sighing in surprise. “It is really a miracle. His injuries were so serious, but the bleeding had actually stopped before he arrived at the hospital. Also, the operation went very smoothly and there was no situation in which he lost a large quantity of blood. It was as though someone practicing traditional Chinese medicine had stopped his bleeding…”
The doctor kept remarking in surprise.
As he said this, Chu Cichen and Shen Ruojing exchanged a glance.
Shen Ruojing interrupted him, “How is the patient now?”
That doctor glanced at Shen Ruojing in shock. “Are you also a doctor?”
Only doctors would use the term ‘patients’ when speaking with another doctor. For example, family members like Little Mi would usually address the patients by their familial terms.
Shen Ruojing nodded.
That doctor then replied, “The patient is no longer in a life-threatening situation and will soon be pushed out of the operating theater.”
Shen Ruojing nodded.
Little Mi rubbed her red eyes. “When will my elder brother wake up?”
The doctor explained, “He will wake up after the anesthesia is gone. I think there’s roughly around half an hour more. Don’t worry. However, he lost too much blood, so he has to recuperate well. In the future, feed him food that can replenish his blood…”
Little Mi immediately nodded. “I’ll boil pig liver soup for my elder brother to drink!”
The doctor patted her head before turning to go.
At this moment, Song Chen was pushed out by a nurse from the operating theater. The few of them then headed into a ward.
After confirming that Song Chen’s condition had stabilized, Shen Ruojing turned and wanted to look for Chu Cichen, but she felt someone tugging the corner of her shirt.
She lowered her head and saw Little Mi lifting her head to look at her. “Elder sister, can you wait here until my elder brother wakes up? I know that you are my brother’s protective amulet. He will definitely be very happy if he sees you when he wakes up!”
Shen Ruojing paused. She suddenly squatted and spoke, “Little Mi, let me ask you a few questions. Did your elder brother always look like this? Are you and him biological siblings? Where are your parents? What sort of person is your elder brother exactly?”
