At the military's group wedding, my best friend and I swapped husbands.

Chapter 139 Weiwei, wake up!

A doctor came out, took off his mask, and looked exhausted.

"Doctor, how is she?" Su Wanwan immediately stepped forward.

"Both of them are out of danger for now," the doctor said. "Comrade Bai Si'an has two broken ribs, minor internal bleeding, and serious aspiration damage to his lungs, so he needs to be closely monitored."

Comrade Lin Weiwei suffered extensive burns on her back, but the depth wasn't too deep. The glass shards in her arm have been removed, and the wound has been stitched up. She also inhaled toxic fumes, but fortunately, it was for a short time.

Su Wanwan's anxiety eased slightly: "Then... can we see them now?"

"She's been transferred to the intensive care unit and hasn't woken up yet. Family members can look at her through the glass, but they can't go in," the doctor said. "Especially for Comrade Lin Weiwei, burn patients are prone to infection, so visits must be strictly controlled."

"Okay, okay, thank you doctor..." Su Wanwan nodded repeatedly.

When Bai Rongbei returned after bandaging his hand and heard the news, his tense shoulders relaxed a bit.

The two followed the nurse to the intensive care unit.

Through the glass window, you can see two hospital beds side by side inside. Bai Si'an is lying on the left, wearing an oxygen mask and with bandages wrapped around his chest.

Lin Weiwei lay prone on the right side, as she had to lie prone due to her back injury.

Her arm was also wrapped in bandages, a small patch of her hair had been shaved off, and gauze was pasted on her forehead.

Both of them lay quietly, motionless.

Su Wanwan's tears welled up instantly.

She covered her mouth to stop herself from crying out loud.

Bai Rongbei stood beside her, his hand gently resting on her shoulder. His eyes were also red, but no tears fell; he simply stared into the room for a long time.

Most of the day has passed.

Bai Si'an was the first to wake up.

Consciousness seemed to slowly rise from the bottom of very deep water.

First, I heard indistinct sounds, some near and some far.

Then came the pain—chest pain, throat pain, even breathing felt like a burning sensation.

He opened his eyes, his vision initially blurry, only able to see the white ceiling.

Where is this?

Memories pierce my brain like shards of glass.

Thick smoke, red lights, a pungent smell, explosions... and Lin Weiwei.

Lin Weiwei rushed in and helped him walk out.

She said, "I'll go with you," and took his hand, turning the knob together. As the debris flew towards them, she stepped aside to shield him...

Bai Si'an suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He tried to sit up, but a sharp pain in his chest made him fall back down. The machine beeped an alarm.

"Don't move! Don't move!" The nurse rushed over. "Technician Bai, you're injured, you can't move around!"

Bai Si'an grabbed her hand with frightening strength: "Where's Lin Weiwei?"

"Comrade Lin is in the next bed, she..."

Bai Si'an had already turned his head away.

He saw Lin Weiwei. She was lying on the hospital bed next to him, with a large bandage on her back, her arms wrapped, a patch of her hair shaved off, and her face pale.

She kept her eyes closed and remained motionless.

Bai Si'an's mind went blank.

"What happened to her?" His voice trembled violently. "Why hasn't she woken up?"

"Comrade Lin is more seriously injured than you, the anesthesia hasn't worn off yet..." the nurse tried to comfort him.

But Baisian wouldn't listen.

He struggled to get out of bed, the IV needle was ripped off, and blood beads appeared on the back of his hand.

His chest was so painful that his vision blurred, but he didn't care and tried to stand up by supporting himself on the edge of the bed.

"Technician Bai! Your wound will reopen if you keep doing that!" The nurse tried to hold him down.

"Get out of the way!" Bai Si'an pushed her hand away.

His legs went weak, he couldn't stand steadily, and he almost fell off the bed.

His knee hit the ground with a dull thud.

He scrambled to his feet and stumbled to Lin Weiwei's bedside.

"Weiwei..." he called her, his voice hoarse and barely audible, "Weiwei, wake up..."

Lin Weiwei did not react.

Bai Si'an's fingers trembled as he touched her face.

It's cold.

He checked her breathing again; she was breathing, very weak, but definitely breathing.

Why isn't she waking up?

"Doctor! Doctor!" he roared, turning around, his eyes bloodshot. "Why isn't she awake?! Where is she hurt?! Tell me the truth!"

The doctor and several nurses rushed in, followed by Bai Rongbei and Su Wanwan. They had been in the corridor outside and heard the commotion, so they quickly ran in.

"Si'an! Lie back down!" Bai Rongbei pressed him down.

Bai Si'an broke free and gripped the doctor's white coat tightly: "How is she?! Tell me!"

The doctor stumbled as he grabbed her, but still tried to remain calm as he said, "Technician Bai, Comrade Lin has burns on her back and injuries to her arms, which are being treated. However, the toxic fumes she inhaled may have affected her nerves, and combined with the impact of the explosion... we need to observe her further."

"Observe what?!" Bai Si'an's voice rose, trembling with tears. "She's in this state and you're still observing her?! Treat her! Treat her!"

"Si'an!" Bai Rongbei forcefully pulled him away from the doctor. "Calm down!"

"How can I stay calm?!" Bai Si'an turned his head, his face covered in tears and cold sweat. "Brother... she did it to save me... she rushed in... she didn't have to do this..."

His legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground, his hands still clinging to the edge of Lin Weiwei's bed.

Su Wanwan also cried, and squatted down to help him up: "Si An, get up first, you're still injured..."

Bai Si'an ignored her.

He knelt by the bedside, looking at Lin Weiwei's pale face, tears streaming down his face.

"Lin Weiwei..." His voice lowered, as if talking to himself, "Wake up... You can scold me, you can hit me... Wake up..."

He remembered the way she rushed into the thick smoke, the way she held his hand and said "turn around," and the muffled groan she let out as she stepped in front of him to shield him.

Blame him.

If he hadn't been in the lab, if he hadn't touched that device, if he had discovered Li Jianguo's operational error sooner...

"It's all my fault..." he murmured, his forehead resting on the edge of the bed, his shoulders trembling violently.
