“I’m not nearly as charming as you say I am…………………”
Jiang Lai knew that Xu Ruobing’s words just now were mostly teasing.
But being targeted by Si Yina was definitely not a good thing.
Now that Si Yina could come straight to her doorstep, who knew what she might do next.
However, Jiang Lai had no energy to think about any of this right now.
After dealing with Si Yina’s matter, she realized her head was spinning dizzily, and a wave of exhaustion swept over her entire body, making it impossible for her to focus on what Xu Ruobing was saying.
Dizzy and weak, her eyelids felt heavy.
At this moment, Jiang Lai longed to find something to lean on and bear her full weight.
In reality, she suddenly collapsed, lying face down on the desk without any warning.
Xu Ruobing noticed Jiang Lai’s abnormal state almost immediately.
Seeing Jiang Lai lying weakly on the desk, she had the sudden illusion that Jiang Lai might just shatter in the next second.
Jiang Lai’s face was pale, her brows furrowed tightly, cold sweat beaded on her forehead, her lips turned bluish, and her body trembled intermittently.
If she hadn’t been clutching her lower abdomen so tightly, Xu Ruobing would have thought Jiang Lai had fainted from the pain.
Seeing Jiang Lai in such agony, Xu Ruobing’s usually calm heart instantly tightened with worry.
She hurriedly helped the almost-faint Jiang Lai up, trying to suppress the panic rising in her chest.
She took out her phone and dialed 120.
After giving her location, she carefully crouched in front of Jiang Lai.
Gently wiping the cold sweat from Jiang Lai’s forehead, Xu Ruobing thought about how healthy Jiang Lai’s body had always been.
Why was she suddenly in such unbearable pain without any warning?
No matter how hard Xu Ruobing tried to stay calm, her mind couldn’t help but spiral towards the worst possible scenarios.
Her slender, beautiful hand lightly rested on Jiang Lai’s hand, her heart filled with anxiety.
But no matter how anxious she felt, it was ultimately useless.
She wasn’t a doctor and couldn’t figure out the cause of Jiang Lai’s pain, nor could she share the pain.
To put it bluntly, Xu Ruobing was utterly powerless at this moment.
Xu Ruobing probably didn’t even expect that she would be so deeply shaken by someone else’s suffering, overwhelmed with helplessness, and frustrated by her own inability to do anything.
All Xu Ruobing could do now was stay by Jiang Lai’s side until the doctor arrived.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, I’ll stay with you………………”
Xu Ruobing was worried that Jiang Lai would faint from the pain at any moment.
She tried to talk to her, hoping to distract her a little, but she also worried that talking too much would hurt Jiang Lai’s ears.
At this moment, Xu Ruobing had completely lost the composure she had earlier when facing Si Yina.
Her stunning face was filled with anxiety and concern.
Her nerves were taut as she waited for the doctor.
Jiang Lai managed to force out a few words from her throat, but the pain distorted her voice into little more than moans of suffering, barely recognizable to Xu Ruobing.
Yet, no matter how much pain Jiang Lai endured, Xu Ruobing could do nothing.
When the wail of the ambulance sounded outside, Xu Ruobing bit her lip and lifted Jiang Lai from the chair.
Right now, all she hoped was that Jiang Lai would see a doctor as soon as possible.
Because all her attention was on Jiang Lai, Xu Ruobing completely ignored the bloodstains left on the chair and the red stains on Jiang Lai’s pants.
Once the ambulance arrived, the scene became chaotic.
Xu Ruobing carried Jiang Lai out of the studio and saw the medical staff carrying a stretcher.
She hurriedly placed Jiang Lai on it and followed the medical personnel to the ambulance.
This urgent scene was witnessed by Si Yina not far away.
Though her view was blurry, the figure curled up on the stretcher was none other than the Jiang Lai she had been obsessing over day and night.
How had such a thing happened in less than ten minutes after she left?
Could it be that Jiang Lai’s pale face in the office wasn’t just her imagination?
As Si Yina tried to get closer to see what was going on, the ambulance had already sped away.
On the ambulance, Xu Ruobing held Jiang Lai’s hand tightly.
Their fingers intertwined, Xu Ruobing’s gaze never left Jiang Lai, not daring to relax even for a moment.
She desperately wished she could take away some of Jiang Lai’s pain.
“Ma’am, could you loosen your grip a bit? It will be easier for me to examine the patient.”
Hearing the medical staff’s gentle request, Xu Ruobing slightly relaxed her grip.
But just as their hands were about to separate, Jiang Lai summoned all her strength and grasped Xu Ruobing’s hand again.
At that moment, it was as if Jiang Lai had found her lifeline.
She squeezed tightly, so hard that her knuckles turned white.
The medical staff saw the two hands clasped tightly and knew they couldn’t forcibly separate them.
So they carefully proceeded with the examination.
Thanks to their professionalism, the medical team quickly identified the cause of Jiang Lai’s condition after a simple check.
“Has the patient been particularly exhausted in the past few days?”
Xu Ruobing wasn’t sure why they asked, but she nodded gently and truthfully.
From what she knew, Jiang Lai had been running non-stop like a spinning top in recent days, barely taking any rest.
During their recent chats, even Jiang Lai’s voice in the voice messages sounded weak and tired.
“That kind of exhaustion may have caused physical weakness and poor energy, and her nutrition might be insufficient. Since she is currently on her menstrual period, there’s no immediate Life-threatening Situation. However, she still needs a more thorough examination at the hospital.”
Technically, medical personnel shouldn’t say too much to those around the patient, but this staff wanted to reassure the worried companions before the official examination.
Once confirmed there was no Life-threatening Situation, even the medical staff on the ambulance breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, after looking closely at the woman who had been talking to them, the nurse gasped inwardly.
If she hadn’t immediately shut her mouth, she might have blurted it out in surprise.
Because the woman in front of her was none other than Xu Ruobing!
The stunning figure she had only ever seen on television was now sitting right before her.
On the way here, this nurse had been aware of the destination and, as a fan of Xu Ruobing, had hoped only to see some traces of her studio upon arrival.
She never dreamed Xu Ruobing would appear in person, let alone be this close inside an ambulance.
No wonder her voice sounded so familiar.
If it weren’t for her strong professional ethics, this nurse might have fainted right then and there.
Now that Xu Ruobing was here, could the patient holding her hand so tightly possibly be Xu Ruobing’s Great Benefactor?
