Chapter 562

“Is one of you sick?” A guard stopped them abruptly. Just as Zuo Bo got annoyed and was going to throw the guard out of the way, the guard added, “It’s Sunday today and there are no doctors working in our country’s hospitals.”

“What? No doctors are working?” Zuo Bo flamed out, “Shouldn’t hospitals be open twenty-four hours a day?”

“That’s the way it is in our country. Doctors don’t work on Sundays; only nurses work today, so you can’t see a doctor.”

The guard couldn’t help it, but that was the privilege Country C gave doctors. As the medical industry had a predominant status in his country, doctors could enjoy the benefits that ordinary people didn’t have.

“Across the street from the hospital is the hotel. It’s better for you guys to stay there first and go to see a doctor the next morning.”

At this moment, Long Chen was having a hard time breathing and he kept breaking out in a cold sweat. Zuo Bo was in a hurry. How could he possibly wait?

“Where’s the medic?” He inquired sharply to He Jingyan.

He Jingyan replied, “They’ve all stayed in Country Z. There are only nurses at the border, and it will take us about ten hours to get back to Country Z. It’s not suitable for Long Chen to travel long distances, so it’s better to go to the hospital here.”

“I’ve said the doctor is not working today. It’s useless for you guys to go to a hospital.” The guard sighed; he also had good intentions, but now that He Jingyan and the others could no longer care so much, they could only take their chances.

“I’ll contact Gong Cheng; maybe he has a solution.”

He Jingyan called Gong Cheng, but his call was never picked up.

‘Damn it! How come he couldn’t be reached at important moments?!’

Seeing the expression on He Jingyan’s face, Zuo Bo didn’t need to ask what the situation was and he hugged Long Chen as if his heart was burning.

Long Chen was a little uncomfortable from his hug and said weakly, “Zuo Bo, let go… I’m uncomfortable…”

“I’m sorry.” Zuo Bo hastily apologized and loosened his hug. At this point, he didn’t care anymore about a man’s pride.

“Are you feeling very uncomfortable? Does your stomach hurt? Or is there something wrong?” Zuo Bo was willing to take a few shots if he could take Long Chen’s place and suffer the pain for him.

Long Chen coughed first, before replying breathlessly, “My head is a little dizzy, very uncomfortable.”

He couldn’t even open his eyes to look at Zuo Bo. His vision was blurred and he couldn’t even use half of his strength.

“It’s okay. It’s going to be okay. I’ll take you to the doctor now, right now.”

His nose was sore. Seeing Long Chen in distress, he felt his heart was cut by a knife.

However, Long Chen suddenly laughed, “When did you become so sentimental?” Although he was smiling, he was so pale and it was heart-breaking to look at.

“I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have messed around with you last night.” There was nothing Zuo Bo could do at this point except apologising, and for the first time he felt helpless.

His body was uncomfortable, but at this moment, Long Chen was unusually happy, because he knew Zuo Bo was worried about him.

‘So, he really cared about me.’

He leaned into Zuo Bo’s arms and lay quietly. The corners of his mouth curled up into a light smile. But the good times didn’t last long as he suddenly coughed more and more severely, wondering if it was because the space was too stuffy.

“Damn it! Haven’t we arrived at the hospital yet?” Zuo Bo burst into a rage, so anxious that his brain was about to explode.

“Navigation says there is three minutes to go, almost there.” Yan Chengyu replied to him. They were in a hurry too! It was also the first time they had seen this look of Long Chen, and they were all terrified.

Xu Yangyi thought it was because of his capricious behaviours that Long Chen was sick and he couldn’t help blaming himself.

“Long Chen is just sick. It’s none of your business, wife. Don’t think about the nonsense.” He Jingyan comforted him.

Xu Yangyi nodded but didn’t say anything, probably still thinking it was his own fault.
