Chapter 381: Chapter 381 - She’s Yan Huan

“Yes,” nodded Lei Qingyi, his hair a chicken nest by now. He heaved a sigh of relief. It’s fine now, everything was going to be fine.

Yi Ling hugged herself. She huddled up, a lump forming in her throat.

Mama Yan would have been in pain if she were to know this.

Mama Yan had always told her not let Yan Huan shed any bleed. However, a life was at stake here. Moreover, it was Lu Yi’s life. She had to bleed.

“Relax, they’ll be fine.”

Lei Qingyi walked to Yi Ling and patted her on the shoulders.

“Are you sure? Are you sure my Huanhuan will be alright? She’s all bones!”

“They aren’t going to drain her dry, what are you so afraid?”

“I just am!” Yi Ling squatted down, wailing. “My Huanhuan has never bled this much before! How will she be okay if they take so much blood away from her at once?”

“What do you mean?” asked Lei Qingyi loudly. “She bleeds once every month, no?”

Yi Ling gave him a hard kick in the butt. “Watch your mouth!”

Lei Qingyi blushed, realizing that he had said something wrong.

Mama Lei and Papa Lei exchanged blank stares.

Meanwhile, Yan Huan was sitting in the operating room, a tube attached to her arm that transported blood to Lu Yi directly. Due to the urgency of the situation and Lu Yi’s excessive blood loss, the surgeon went with direct transfusion.

She opened her eyes and looked inside the operating room separated by a glass wall.

“He’s going to be fine, right?” Yan Huan asked the nurse who was handling the transfusion.

“He will be fine, don’t worry,” consoled the nurse. “He lost a lot of blood, but his internal organs weren’t damaged. As long as he gets a blood transfusion in time, he’ll be fine.”

“Are we in time?” pressed Yan Huan.

The same thing had happened during her previous life but at a later time. Lu Yi got into a car accident and needed a blood transfusion, however, she had refused even when Ye Shuyun kneeled down to beg her. In the end, the hospital managed to find suitable spare blood, but Lu Yi almost died from excessive blood loss.

Did she not make it in time?

“Yes, you came at the right time,” said the nurse, putting a piece of clothing around Yan Huan. “Relax, he’ll be fine. However, he might be needing more blood. But don’t worry, we have already found a suitable donor and secured spare blood, which would soon be delivered here.”

“Okay,” replied Yan Huan. In truth, she didn’t care about how much blood they needed from her. All she wanted to know was if he would be alright, if he could wake up again, if he could spend the New Year with her.

She was so scared of losing him.

She dipped her head and adjusted the clothing around her. She couldn’t help but wipe her tears with the back of her hand. She cried softly, quietly. All by herself.

The nurse outside the operating room had already informed them that the patient was now in a stable condition and a new blood source had been obtained.

Yi Ling stood outside the operating room, peering inside every so often. She was worried about Yan Huan, worried that something might happen to her.

Mama Lei dragged her son towards her and pointed at Yi Ling. “That person...”

For once, Lei Qingyi was embarrassed. He flushed from head to neck.

“She’s the person I like, Mom,” said Lei Qingyi coarsely. “She might look like a guy, but she’s definitely a woman.” He had to emphasize that so that his Mom wouldn’t mistaken Yi Ling as a guy and him as gay.

Mama Lei rolled her eyes. “Do you think I’m someone who can’t tell gender like you? I knew she was a girl the moment I laid my eyes on her.”

Lei Qingyi scratched his head. If that was the case, he was actually pretty dumb. He had seen Yi Ling a few times, yet he thought that she was a guy, and even touched her breasts. The thought of that flustered him.

“By the way,” whispered Mama Lei. “Was the person that went inside... Yan Huan?”

Even though she asked that, she was actually pretty sure that her guess was right. The short-haired girl must have been Yan Huan’s manager, the one called Yi Ling. That’s what her son called her just now. And that fat cat that was freeloading at their house must have been Yan Huan’s cat. She always thought that the cat looked similar to the one that belonged to the Best Actress. Turned out it was.

Lei Qingyi glanced at Yi Ling beside the operating room, then nodded. “Yes. She’s Yan Huan.”

“That Yan Huan? The female lead in Divorced? As well as The Uncle And The Flower?” pressed Mama Lei.

“Yes,” Lei Qingyi nodded again. “It’s as you think.”

“So they are...” asked Mama Lei cautiously. The words didn’t feel real to her.

Doesn’t that make Lu Yi’s fiancee...Yan Huan?

Ye Shuyun had told her about Lu Yi’s secret marriage with an actress. Due to the nature of her profession, they didn’t announce their marriage—also the reason why Lu Yi was almost beaten to death. If this person was really Yan Huan, then the whole thing must have been true.

But...Yan Huan?? Mama Lei felt a little dizzy and confused.

No, she needed some time to process this. The person who once seemed unreachable was going to become a family member. She couldn’t believe it. No, she couldn’t.

She then plopped down beside Ye Shuyun and patted her on the shoulder.

“Don’t worry, Sister, Lu Yi will be fine.”

Ye Shuyun opened her lips but said nothing. Mama Lei felt awful. No one would have been able to stay calm were this to happen to them. Putting herself in her shoes, she would have gone berserk if the person in there was Lei Qingyi.

Soon, the surgeon came out. He seemed weary, but the air around him hinted of vitality and not death.

He nodded at the family members. “Don’t worry, the patient is fine. Luckily, the blood transfusion was done just in time. The patient has lost a lot of blood, but there’s nothing major apart from that.”

Ye Shuyun grabbed Mama Lei’s elbow so hard that she thought her hand was going to break, but Mama Lei didn’t pull away. When the surgeon left, Ye Shuyun squatted down and began wailing, her face buried in her hands.

“Let’s go,” said Lu Qin, his face icy. A gloomy air surrounded him.
