The old man gradually calmed down and stopped convulsing.
The unforgettable scene took place when the young girl took a tissue from her bag.
An incredibly beautiful and neat girl, her tender white fingertips seemed like they were crafted from snow-lotus, untouched by the dust of the mortal world. Such sacred and beautiful hands were now wiping away vomit…
The contrast in the scene was too strong, many people closed their eyes in discomfort but couldn’t help but look at the girl again.
Her expression remained calm as ever, as if she were doing something ordinary.
It was the excessively calm demeanor that made people feel uneasy.
Even the old man’s own granddaughter might not be able to do this. This girl was too kind, too strong…
Charles Gao squeezed through the crowd and saw this scene.
A scene he would never forget in his life.
The old man slowly opened his eyes and whispered his thanks with his fading breath.
Ming Jing saw a corner of the phone sticking out of the old man’s pocket and took it out, saying, “I’ll notify your family.”
The old man’s phone was not password protected, so it was easily opened. There was a recent call history with someone named Shen Zhou, so Ming Jing called to inform him.
Upon hearing that the old man had fainted on the subway, the other party was shocked and immediately asked for the location.
“He is momentarily on Subway Line 2, next stop Renmin Park. Some passengers have already called 120. It’s a case of acute cerebral hemorrhage, very critical.”
“Hold on.”
Ming Jing heard the other person give instructions: “Contact the nearest hospital to Renmin Park, clear a life channel, and ensure my father’s safety.”
This voice had a strong determination and authority, which only those who had been in power for a long time would have.
“Miss, thank you for your brave deeds. The doctor will be here soon. Before the doctor comes, please make sure to stay with my father. In the future, I, Shen Zhou, will repay your favor for saving our lives.”
“It’s a small thing, not worth mentioning.”
It didn’t take long for the Renmin Park stop to arrive. The passengers began to move, and the attendants hurried over to direct the subway police to disperse
the crowd.
Ming Jing asked the police officer, “Help me get the elderly man out first.”
The officer hesitated for a moment, after all, there was blood all over the old man’s head, looking terrifying. Was it okay to move him casually?
But now during peak hours, the subway couldn’t stop operating just because of the old man.
The officer received notification, and his face changed immediately. He said, “We have just been notified, the subway will temporarily stop operations until the medical staff arrives.”
Ming Jing raised her eyebrows, realizing the old man’s family must have some influence.
The subway stopped, and the crowd became restless. Many people started taking photos and recording videos on their phones. The subway stopping during peak hours was no small matter and soon made small splashes on the internet.
Most of the discussion surrounded the brave girl, but her face was not visible in the video, as she kept her head down, her long hair covering her features, and the resolution of the video was not good either. However, her elegant and tall figure was enough to make her unforgettable.
In less than five minutes, with the police leading the way, paramedics rushed in with a stretcher and quickly assessed the old man’s condition, “The patient has an acute cerebral hemorrhage, heart rate and blood pressure are normal…”
The doctor quickly glanced at Ming Jing, “Was it you who put him in the recovery position?”
Ming Jing nodded.
“In the case of acute cerebral hemorrhage accompanied by vomiting, the vomit must be cleaned up as soon as possible, otherwise, it can cause asphyxia and shock. You did a great job on that and saved a life.”
The doctor and nurse worked together to lift the old man onto the stretcher and quickly pushed him out of the subway. Ming Jing followed, and Charles Gao hurried to catch up.
A man in a suit squeezed through the crowd and asked the subway police,
“Where is the lady who saved the old man?”
The officer pointed towards the back, “She’s over there…”
As he turned his head, the restless crowd behind him had already swallowed the girl from sight.
Originally wanting to catch up with Ming Jing, Charles Gao was surprised when he saw the man approaching, “Is that him?”
When Shen Zhou arrived at the hospital, the dean had been alarmed and mobilized the hospital’s best medical staff to ensure Elder Theodore Shelby’s safety.
The operating room light went out, and the doctor came out. He was a highly reputable expert in neurosurgery, and with him as the lead surgeon, the patient was naturally out of danger.
“Mr. Shen, rest assured, your father’s surgery was very successful. He has been transferred to ICU, under observation for 24 hours. If there are no problems after that, he can be transferred to a general ward.”
“Thank you, Professor Wu.” Shen Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, almost losing his balance. Professor Wu quickly supported him.
“Mr. Shen, it was actually the timely rescue that saved your father’s life. Acute cerebral hemorrhage is very dangerous. Your father was in a critical condition at that time, but someone performed emergency measures on him. Thanks to the timely transfer to the hospital, your father’s life was saved. Otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable. It’s not me you should be thanking — saving lives and healing injuries are a doctor’s duty.” After finishing speaking, he left.
Shen Ke quickly walked over at this moment, “Sir, the girl who saved him had already left when I went to look for her.”
Shen Zhou said solemnly, “She is the savior of my father and me.
Shen Ke took out his phone and showed Shen Zhou the video circulating online.
It was a complete video, beginning when the old man fainted. Everyone was around, but nobody stepped forward except a girl who squeezed into the crowd.
She was thin, but her back seemed to carry a sacred light.
As people tried to persuade her not to cause trouble, she disregarded their words and stayed determined.
She calmly checked on the old man and, fearlessly of getting dirty, cleaned the vomit… A crowd gasped in surprise.
From beginning to end, the girl showed no hesitation or signs of being overwhelmed. She remained calm, knowing exactly what she was doing.
Upon seeing this, Shen Zhou couldn’t help but feel surprised.
He remembered her voice on the phone; it was both soothing like a bird’s song and as solid as a mountain, calm and cold. Not only was she brave and kind, but she also had a vast heart. Such a talent must be found.
Ming Jing left the subway station and went to the opposite side to wait for the bus.
“Ming Jing, why didn’t you wait for me?” Charles Gao caught his breath as he caught up to her.
Ming Jing glanced at him and quickly looked away.
“You were so brave just now. Weren’t you afraid it was a scam?
“Saving a life is worth more than building a seven-storied pagoda,” the girl said with an unexpressable sense of compassion on her indifferent face, standing out from the chaotic crowd in a world of her own.
Charles Gao stared blankly, his eyes locked onto her, forgetting what he wanted to say, only knowing that at this moment, the most beautiful scene in the world was right before him..
