My thoughts gradually returned, and I stared at Eric's tense face. He answered perfunctorily, "It doesn't matter." From beginning to end, his eyes followed the direction where Lina left, which made me feel full of irony. What a typical example of "being in Cao's camp but with a heart for Han"!

When the second ambulance arrived, I felt my father's pulse, which was so weak that it was almost unnoticeable. After getting in the car, I stared at the detection display screen intently, completely ignoring the existence of Eric . Not long after the car started, my father's heart rate dropped sharply, with the lowest being only more than 30. I cried heartbreakingly: "Dad, wake up..."

After Eric answered the phone, he anxiously said to the driver: "Can you drive faster? Don't take a detour to other hospitals, go directly to the nearest town hospital!" A few minutes later, my father's heart rate miraculously recovered, I cried with joy, and even Eric next to me was no longer so annoying.

The driver took us to the hospital at an amazing speed. The journey that usually takes one and a half hours took him less than half an hour. After arriving, the hospital quickly opened a green channel for us to check. However, the CT results were worrying: thalamic hemorrhage with a large amount of blood.

The doctor told me that the town hospital could not treat him and he needed to be transferred to a more professional hospital. At this time, Lina pulled Eric to explain: " Eric , thank you for helping to call the car to our hospital. I thought the equipment here could treat him, but I didn't expect Uncle An to be so seriously injured..."

I swayed and looked at Eric in disbelief. He pushed Lina aside, took a step forward, and looked apologetically: "Anna, listen to my explanation..." I turned around resolutely and followed the stretcher bearers to escort my father to the 120 ambulance again.

Along the way, a corner of my heart collapsed. I knew we could never go back.

After arriving at another hospital, I accompanied the nurse to quickly explain the situation to the doctor. However, after the department confirmed the situation over the phone, the doctor showed a trace of pity in his eyes: "The only doctor in our hospital who can perform brain surgery is on leave today..."

My head buzzed, and I was overwhelmed by despair. It was at least six hours' drive from here to the city hospital. If there were no doctors, who could save Dad?

The rain kept falling, and the splashes on the open ground of the hospital soaked my trouser legs. At this time, a figure slowly stood in front of me and stretched out his hand to me: " Anna , take Dad home, we will send him off for the last time." It was Eric .

I avoided him in disgust, thinking about ways to save Dad. Suddenly, I saw Lina arguing with a strange man in the open space of the hospital . I felt a little weird and walked over.

Eric caught up with me and explained, "That's Lina's ex-boyfriend. He comes from a poor family and has been harassing Lina for breakup money." He paused angrily, "Lina has always had a boyfriend. Don't be suspicious."

I stopped and walked back. My father was in danger. I shouldn't get entangled with Eric anymore. However, when I passed by him, a drop of rain hit my forehead and I suddenly woke up. No! Those were not leaky shoes at all, they were medical slippers!

In Eric's stunned eyes, I rushed into the rain like crazy and grabbed the sleeve of the strange man tightly: "Doctor, I'm Anna . My father has a cerebral hemorrhage and needs surgery..."

"Are you together? Miss An has decided not to sign the surgery agreement." Dr. Liang frowned.

Eric came over and questioned me angrily: "Anna, why are you flirting with another man!" After that, he grabbed my clothes and tried to pull me away.

——Bang!

I slapped him without hesitation.
