Chapter 449: "Do it for me, lover?"



Chapter 449: "Do it for me, lover?"

Elite Multi-Speciality Hospital, 07:05;

Burr hole drainage surgery is a surgical procedure used to remove blood clots formed near the brain. These blood clots are known as subdural hematomas, found under the proactive covering of the brain called the dura. Being one of the most complicated medical surgeries, Burr hole drainage requires absolute delicacy and patience from surgeons. One wrong move and the procedure can birth life-threatening complications to the patient. 

But Su Rogguang had no other choice than to perform this operation, for his Kiddo did not have the liberty of time. Not to mention, the man couldn't inject the girl with general anesthesia or any other sedation, since it would only speed up the Cocaine's properties running inside her. But he had done this thousands of times. This surgery. Different people with different ages and different medical histories. And never did he fail for once. He wasn't planning on failing this one too, of that he was sure.

For Su Rogguang, an Operation Theatre was what a battlefield was to a soldier, a piano to a pianist, a canvas to a painter. He was used to this. Switching his emotion off, looking at nothing but a body that needed to be healed. Not his sister, not his family; but a person in pain. 

It took Su Rogguang more than five hours to perform the surgery. The sun had set and risen amid the long exhausting night the Superfamily and Xi Yuan had had. None of them had anything to eat, or even a minute of sleep since the moment they'd known of what'd happened to her. Messed up hair, loosened ties, disheveled shirts and gowns; one glance at them and anyone could tell the kind of tiring night they'd all had. They didn't care about it, though. They cared about nothing but the girl inside. 

So when Su Rogguang came out, most worn out of all, they surrounded him, anxiously. The man smiled, "She is safe.", he announced casually, pulling off the blood-stained gloves from his hands and the mask from his mouth, one after the other, dumping them in the trash bin by the door.

As for the Superfamily, even though they'd presumed his success tonight, it still seemed like they were living a dream. But as the reality dawned on them, the Six tigers were overjoyed and so were the girl's sisters-in-law. Pulling the man in for a tight hug, Zhi Al refused to let go, followed by Zhi Bo and Mo Zixuan, as they pounced onto him together. 

"I love you, Roggie!", Zhi Al laughed out, "So goddamn much."

"Stay away.", the man yelled, pushing him apart, "You'll make Tong misunderstand, you moron!"

"Rude!", Zhi Al scoffed, still unable to suppress the tears of delight in his eyes. 

Su Rogguang glared at the man and turned to Xi Yuan, "She cannot work for the next 4 to 8 weeks, Yuan. And by that, I mean zero mental or psychological exertion. She needs to be distressed at all times. I'll have her diet planned along with her medication chart. 

"I am trusting you here, Yuan. With her health. Do you get me?"

"Yeah.", Xi Yuan nodded, his tone earnest, "I will take care of her better than anyone ever possibly could."

"Alright then.", the man nodded, assured, "She'll get her consciousness back in about two to three hours.

"Until then, fill me in on our fu*ked up perpetrator here.", he smiled devilishly.

Closed in throat, heavy eyes, stinging pain in the wrist of her left hand. She hadn't felt this uncomfortable for a long time. But to her relief, the throbbing pain in her head was gone. Vanished, to be truthful. 

Opening her eyes slowly, Rong Xinghe inhaled the sweet smell of the bouquet of lavender flowers placed upon her side table, staring at the navy blue ceiling of the hospital ward. Of course, a hospital... But what'd happened exactly, she wondered. Why did she faint?

Curiously, her gaze traveled through the entire room as even the simple activity sapped her. But it was then that she realized that she wasn't alone and that someone was holding onto her right hand. It was her darling. Sitting on a stool, his fingers interlaced with hers, his eyes closed, his head supported by his other hand. 

She didn't know if he was asleep. He was a light sleeper with a habit of power napping. She hoped he was sleeping, though, for she knew how difficult it must've had been for him. Watching her pass out like that, all of a sudden, facing the uncertainties and horrifying doubts all by himself. 

"Xinghe...", the man woke up with a start, as he felt the girl's index finger move in his hand, his voice wearied, "Are you okay? Is it hurting somewhere? You-"

"Hush.", the girl smiled, placing her right hand upon his lips, silencing him, her throat aching as she spoke, "Come here."

Xi Yuan nodded obediently as he climbed onto the girl's bed, lying down beside her, allowing her to bury her face into his chest. He then silently hugged her carefully as he pulled up the blanket that'd been tumbled down due to their movements. 

Noticing the man's silence, Rong Xinghe looked up at him, her heart at unease, "What happened?"

"He Chen tried to kill you.", the man answered honestly, "Slow poison. A formula of Indomethacin NSAID and Cocaine. Bro Su had to perform Burr hole drainage surgery to remove the blood clots from your brain; it was a success."

The girl processed the man's words for about two minutes, quietly, her cold fingers pressing against his jawline. And the man, as always, observed her as she digested it all. He knew his Xinghe way too much to conceal the truth this time. She couldn't be overstressed for the days to come, and expecting her to leave things be, wasn't even an option. She never gave up. She'd keep digging until she would get the answers she needed. So what was the point of worrying her?

"Where is that s*ut?", the girl questioned with a hint of rage in her voice. 

"Wishing for death. Regretting the second the idea of hurting you flashed across her slick little mind.", Xi Yuan replied, his tone dangerously indifferent, "I haven't killed her. Yet. But she is not watching tomorrow's sunrise. I was just waiting for you to wake up and decide as to who will finish it, for good. You, or me?"

"I would.", the girl laughed weakly, "But I feel so powerless, right now.

"Do it for me, lover?" Rong Xinghe knew what Xi Yuan meant by 'wishing for death'. But it wasn't as if she was unaware of this side of his since the beginning. She was, after all, in love with the devil himself.

Listening to the girl's soft request, the man's lips curled up in amazement, "As the Queen commands...", he said, capturing her lips into his.
