Chapter 444: Chapter 418 Call of Duty (Thank you to alliance leader Shui Yuqing for the reward +5 more)

The atmosphere was particularly peaceful when suddenly, Yu Minglang’s phone rang. Xiao Qian didn’t want to deal with this mood-killing call, but accidentally touched the phone under her pillow, and the call connected.

“Ming Lang, there’s a problem.”

Xiao Qian rolled her eyes and subtly flipped off Yu Minglang.

Can’t there be any trust between people anymore?

Yu Minglang felt wronged but couldn’t ignore the call, because the voice belonged to his eternally single Uncle Liu.

“Go ahead.” A frustrated Yu Xiaoqiang secretly cursed his contradictory uncle, wishing him bad luck with no toilet paper when he needed to use the restroom.

“Are you in Lin City now?” Uncle Liu’s voice sounded somewhat anxious.

“Yes.” Yu Minglang immediately composed himself and sat up properly.

Seeing his serious face, Xiao Qian shook her head.

The reason for Yu Minglang’s instantaneous seriousness was due to Uncle Liu rarely revealing such emotions—how big of a matter could it be to cause Uncle Liu to become so serious?

“It’s not about work, but a personal request. The pesky old lady from my family has been hospitalized. Could you please help me check up on her? I’m out of town for a meeting, and it would take me hours to get back by plane!”

“Tell me the hospital address and room number.”

Hearing that the teacher was in trouble, Xiao Qian also became serious. After Yu Minglang hung up, Xiao Qian asked him,

“What happened to the teacher?”

“She had a heart attack and is being resuscitated at the Third Hospital Emergency Center. Liu Li called Uncle Liu for help, but he can’t make it in time—Qian Bao, you lie down for a while, I’ll go check it out.”

Although Uncle Liu already divorced, he still referred to Professor Liu as “the old lady from his family.” It was clear he hadn’t let go. Hearing the worry in his voice, Yu Minglang didn’t dare to delay any longer and got up to leave.

“I’ll go with you.” Upon hearing that their teacher had an emergency, Xiao Qian also decided to leave.

Because of the sudden incident, both of them hurried off, facing an impending crisis head-on.

Uncle Liu has always been very close to Yu Minglang’s family, and Professor Liu is Xiao Qian’s mentor. This not only involved him, but also her.

The two developed an understanding and drove in silence, rushing towards the hospital.

Xiao Qian only hoped that her teacher would be alright. Their teacher had always had heart problems, but the timing of her heart attack in this life was different from her previous one. She didn’t know what the problem was, she just hoped everything would be fine.

After Xiao Qian reincarnated, many things were different from her past life. She didn’t know what exactly was happening this time. Thankfully, Yu Minglang drove quickly and they soon reached the hospital where their teacher’s ward was located.

She was still being resuscitated, and her condition was critical. After Yu Minglang and Liu Li got a better understanding of the situation, they found the outlook wasn’t promising. They had to look after Professor Liu and also comfort Xiao Qian.

Such is life. You never know when something will happen, and when it does, all you can do is cope—you can’t avoid it.

In this unsettling time, they hoped for the best.

Outside the ward, people came and went. When one fell ill, all the wealth and status in the world became irrelevant. Xiao Qian wanted nothing more than for her beloved teacher to be safe.

Yu Minglang could feel her anxiety and silently held her hand, hoping to give her some courage.

He wished to face every obstacle with her.
