Chapter 2099 - 500: The End Times Arrive, Each Shows Their Brilliance
Ruan Songxi stood as straight as a gun, his thin lips tightly pressed together, glaring intensely in the direction of the operating room door.
He had never felt this tense before.
It was as if he were waiting for the judgment of fate, even his breathing became instinctively rapid.
The doors of the operating room swung open, and a group of people streamed out in single file, surrounding a slender figure in the middle. Even in a loose surgical gown, they couldn’t hide her frailty. The mask tightly covered her face, leaving only a pair of beautiful but exhausted eyes exposed. At this moment, the sparkle they once had was gone, clouded and weary. She didn’t walk out; she floated out...
Before anyone could react, a tall figure swept through with a frigid presence, causing several people to shiver simultaneously. They saw the dark shadow dart up to her just in time to catch her in his arms as she stumbled.
"Yun Ya..." Zhuang Xiyue screamed, stumbling forward in a rush.
Yan Ke hurried to follow.
Ruan Songxi clenched his fists and strode forward with his long legs, while Liang Wenwan sighed softly, quietly following beside him.
Yun Ya felt extraordinarily exhausted, her body seemed different from before. It was a miracle she managed to walk off the operating table; her arms and legs felt as if they weren’t her own.
Yun Ya pulled a feeble smile, but unfortunately, others couldn’t see it due to the mask covering her face, only the slight curve in her eyes hinted at that smile.
Yan Song held the soft, delicate body in his arms; she was so light, so fragile. A great pain and tenderness welled up in his heart, and he feared hurting her, holding her with exceptional gentleness.
"Brother Yan... I... I did it."
The trembling voice carried a note of relief, as well as the pride of being Dr. Nyx.
In her hands, there was no failure because she herself was a miracle.
"Don’t speak." Yan Song lifted her into his arms, as if she were a fragile glass doll, holding her with extreme care.
He didn’t care whether anyone was dead or alive in the operating room, he only knew that her current fragility consumed all his focus; if anything happened to her, he feared he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from destroying the world.
If anyone were observant at that moment, they would notice a dark aura and a chill surrounding Yan Song. The temperature within his vicinity dropped to freezing point, the wind howled outside the window, causing an ominous sensation.
Even Zhuang Xiyue was frightened by this side of Yan Song, causing her to stop instinctively, rubbing her arms lightly.
Yan Song didn’t spare anyone a glance. Before Yun Ya completely lost consciousness, he turned and left briskly, holding her.
He left the crowd with only a distant, cold back view.
Zhuang Xiyue still felt a lingering fear; her son had been terrifying just now, as if he were going to devour someone. She dared not imagine what he would do if anything really happened to Yun Ya, given his temperament.
"Mom, my brother just...?" Yan Ke furrowed his brows, unsure how to describe what he felt in that moment.
It was as if the end of the world had arrived.
Only endless cold and despair.
"Your brother was just too worried about Yun Ya. This time, we owe Yun Ya too much; we must treat her well in the future, understand?" If she had been anxious before, after Yun Ya appeared and she heard what was said to Ah Song, relief finally washed over her.
Yan Ke pressed his lips together and nodded emphatically.
At this moment, Doctor Zhou and his assistant Xiao Xu came out, and Zhuang Xiyue and Ruan Songxi gathered around them. Doctor Zhou looked somewhat weary, yet his eyes were full of energy as he removed his mask and smiled at Zhuang Xiyue and Ruan Songxi: "Lady Yan, Mr. Ruan, rest assured, the surgery was successful. Lady Ruan has been taken to the ICU through a special passage. As long as she makes it through tonight safely, she will be fine. With good rest and regular check-ups, she can surely live a long life."
Even though they already knew the outcome, hearing it directly from the doctor, Zhuang Xiyue’s legs went weak, and Yan Ke quickly caught her, holding her with concern.
Zhuang Xiyue was already in tears, crying without worrying about appearances, "Sister... Sister, you’re okay, it’s so wonderful." She hadn’t been this happy even on her wedding day.
Ruan Songxi also finally breathed a sigh of relief, letting go of all his strength as he stepped back a pace.
Liang Wenwan quickly steadied him, smiling as she said, "It’s really great that Aunt Zhuang is okay. Song Xi, from now on, we will be well."
Ruan Songxi secretly tightened his grip on her hand, glanced at her, and nodded firmly.
