The Best Actor's Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! Chapter 77 She Might Not Make It out of the Or!

When Mrs. Mou reached the Operating Room, the door was pushed open and a doctor came running out, asking anxiously, "Where's the patient's family?"

Mrs. Mou walked up rather unwillingly. "They aren't here, you can tell me!"

"The patient's injuries are very serious. We have lost a lot of blood and it is now a critical situation. Quickly call the patient's family, we cannot promise that the patient will make it, but we'll try our best!"

Mrs. Mou was shocked! How could this happen? Yun Muxi was stabbed only twice, how could she not make it?

Just as she was still in a state of shock, her phone started ringing. She only realized it after a while. After picking up the call, Mou Yichen's impatient voice came from the other end. "Hello? Mom! Why did it take so long for you to refill the bottle? Did you go and cause trouble for Xiao Xi?"

Mrs. Mou froze and answered stiffly, "Yichen, Xiao Xi is... Xiao Xi is..."

"What happened to Xiao Xi? Did you really go looking for her? Why did you do that? Xiao Xi is such a good girl, why can't you see the good in her..."

"Yichen, listen to me! Calm down and do not panic..."

"Oh, mom, what happened? Tell me now!"

"Xiao Xi is in the OR, the doctor said... the doctor said..."

"What? Why is Xiao Xi in the OR? What happened?"

"The doctor asked for the patient's family, she might not make it out of the OR!"

"What do you mean?"

"Literally!"

Then, Mrs. Mou heard Yichen's phone drop onto the floor and his hurried footsteps gradually became further away from the phone.

After a short while, Mou Yichen came running towards her. His face was covered with sweat and he stood panting in front of her. He asked in a trembling voice, "Mom, Xiao Xi... how did Xiao Xi end up in the OR?

Mrs. Mou summarized simply, "We were in the back garden of the hospital, and some crazy guy came running towards us with a knife. Xiao Xi saw it and tried to protect me. She got stabbed twice."

Mrs. Mou completely left out the part where she tried to chase her away with money. At this moment, Mou Yichen was more concerned about Yun Muxi's injuries and did not bother to think about why his mother would be with Yun Muxi.

Mou Yichen was in a state of utter shock. He could hardly imagine how the weak body of hers suffered the attack. Just now, Mrs. Mou's "might not make it" caused his life to turn upside down. He could not imagine what would happen to him if Yun Muxi left just like that. What would happen to Niannian?

Mrs. Mou saw that Mou Yichen's soul seemed to have lost his soul. She comforted him by saying, "Yichen, don't worry, perhaps the doctor was scaring us. The doctor said to call her family, so call them now, don't waste any more time."

Mou Yichen cried out miserably, "She does not have any family, she is a pitiful orphan, why would god do this to her? She already lives a miserable life, how could something worse than that happen?"

It was then that Mrs. Mou recalled that Yun Muxi had indeed lost her parents. Since her parents were orphans too, she had no relatives. Mrs. Mou thought for a while and said, "What about her friends? Does she have any close friends? We can't settle this ourselves!"

Mou Yichen cried bitterly, "Xiao Xi only has Gu Yuxuan and I, she doesn't have anyone else to rely on!"

"Then call her here! Isn't she Yun Muxi's best friend? They grew up together, she's practically family!"

Mou Yichen hesitated. Gu Yuxuan had to be informed, since Yun Muxi and she were very close to each other. He took Mrs. Mou's phone and dialed Gu Yuxuan's number. "Hello, Xuanxuan."

"Yichen, what's wrong? I heard Xiao Xi say that you're hospitalized. Are you better now? I wanted to go visit you but am still very busy writing my thesis."

"Xuanxuan, Xiao Xi got into an accident!"

"What... what happened to Xiao Xi?"

"She's in the OR now, it seems serious. Quickly come over now, in case... in case you don't get to see her for the last time."

"Why is it so serious! Which hospital is it? I'll be right there."

Hearing Mou Yichen talk about seeing Yun Muxi for the last time, Gu Yuxuan started panicking immediately. After hanging up, she quickly fled to the hospital.

When she was on the way, she suddenly thought of Gong Yu. She knew how much he meant to her. Although Xiao Xi did not admit it, bystanders are always clearer of the situation. Gu Yuxuan saw a clearer picture than Xiao Xi.

Without hesitation, she quickly called Gong Yu. At this moment, Gong Yu had just ended a scene and was walking to his rest area. He saw his phone vibrating constantly and picked it up. When he saw "Gu Yuxuan", he instantly knew that something was off. She never called him, so could this mean that something was wrong?

With a sense of uneasiness, he picked up the call with his brows furrowed. "Hello?"

"Gong Yu, I'm Gu Yuxuan. There's something that I need to tell you."

"What's the matter? Did something happen to Xiao Xi?"

Gu Yuxuan did not expect him to guess it. Were they telepathic?

He asked anxiously, "Did something happen to Xiao Xi? Or is it Niannian?"

Gu Yuxuan snapped back from her side thoughts and tried to compose herself as much as possible. "Xiao Xi... Xiao Xi is now in the OR. I don't know the details but Yichen said that it was serious!"

Gong Yu's heart skipped a beat. As he walked out in large steps, he asked nervously, "Serious? How serious?"

Gong Yu tried to regain his heartbeat as he waited for her answer.

"Um... um... Yichen said that if we're late we might not be able to see Xiao Xi for one last time."

Gong Yu's mind went blank immediately. All he could see was darkness. He almost passed out and his heart started to ache again. It was so pain he felt like he could not breathe. Leaning against the wall, he regained his sight after a while. Gu Yuxuan did not hear his voice for a long time and asked, "Gong Yu, are you still listening? Are you okay?"

Gong Yu finally found his voice after a long time. "Which hospital is she in?"

After Gu Yuxuan told him the address, Gong Yu hung up immediately and ran out of the set. He was running so fast it looked as if he was utilizing his Qinggong skills. Zhao Yi saw him and shouted, "Hey, Gong Yu! Where are you going? We're filming the next scene soon!"

Zhao Yi was completely ignored. Gong Yu arrived at the hospital as fast as he could possibly have. He had yet to change out of his outfit and makeup.

When he arrived at the OR, the light above the door was still turned on. Mrs. Mou and Mou Yichen were sitting in front of the door. Gu Yuxuan hurried over. Mou Yichen was startled to see Gong Yu and questioned Gu Yuxuan with some dissatisfaction, "You called him here?"

Gu Yuxuan was still out of breath from all the running. "Didn't you say we might not see her for the last time? It's too serious, so I called him."

With his bloodshot eyes, Gong Yu asked in a trembling voice, "How... how did she end up in the OR?" His voice was as cold as a blood-sucking beast.

Mou Yichen was very heartbroken as he explained in between sobs, "My mother was with her in the back garden. They were attacked by a lunatic. He stabbed her twice. I don't know the details but my mother said that a doctor came out asking for the family members to come quickly. She might... might not make it out of the OR. The doctor said to get prepared."

After hearing his explanation, Gong Yu let out a heart-wrenching roar and banged his fists against the wall. Two small cracks were formed on the stiff wall. Gong Yu's body was trembling. No one could understand the pain in his heart. He was having difficulty breathing. He pressed his hand against his chest and took in big breaths. His tears and sweat were pouring down his face at the same time.

Although Mou Yichen was also sad, he felt that he was feeling even more terrible than anyone else, until he saw Gong Yu. He was startled. Gong Yu's love for Yun Muxi was not less than his. Perhaps, Gong Yu loved Yun Muxi more than he did. Mou Yichen started to be wary and glanced at Gong Yu once more.

Gu Yuxuan was also startled at how Gong Yu reacted to the news. She knew that he cared for Xiao Xi, but did not realize it was to this extent. After listening to Mou Yichen's explanation, she was also very sad. She grew up with Yun Muxi and they were as close as real sisters. Tears started to pour down her face.

Just when everyone was wallowing in the sad news, a doctor came out of the OR looking very exhausted. Seeing the devastated crowd in front of him. He put on his usual calm disposition and said, "I know that you guys are very sad. At times like this, we understand how you feel. We have done our best. Please accept my condolences."

As a surgeon in the emergency OR, he was used to situations like this. Hence, he was not so emotionally-affected by their sorrow of losing a loved one. He comforted them like how he always did.

Hearing the doctor's words, everyone entered a state of utter disbelief. How could she be gone just like that?

Mou Yichen grabbed onto the doctor's sleeve and confirmed, "Doctor, what do you mean? The patient..."

The doctor patted on his arm gently and comforted, "I am sorry! We have tried our best but the patient had lost too much blood which caused severe brain anoxia. The patient's heart stopped and couldn't be saved."

Gong Yu's mind went blank as if someone dropped a bomb on it. His heart started aching again and all he could see was darkness. He fainted and fell backward. Standing beside him, Gu Yuxuan caught him immediately. Seeing this scene, the doctor quickly rushed to Gong Yu.

He woke up very quickly and the doctor asked, "Are you okay? You looked really out of color. Are you experiencing discomfort anywhere? Do you want me to do a check for you?"

Gong Yu did not answer any of his questions. Instead, he asked, "Gone? Just like that?"

The doctor nodded and replied in a calm voice, "The patient did not suffer much."

Gong Yu burst into tears again and asked in a trembling voice, "Then... was there... any last words?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "The patient was already unconscious when brought into the OR and did not wake up until the end."

Gong Yu fell onto the ground and buried his head into his hands. His makeup was all over the place now and he looked extremely disheveled. Gu Yuxuan was also very sad, but she still comforted Gong Yu, "The doctor said that Xiao Xi died peacefully. Think about it, when she goes to heaven and find her parents, she won't be a lonely orphan anymore! She was once a little girl that was forgotten by god, she had suffered too much pain and sadness."

Just then, the doctor frowned and asked, "Wait... you said a little girl?"
