As Ming Li's figure vanished from sight, those present instinctively swallowed. They all looked up at the cloudless sky, then down at the pit in the ground that had been gouged out by lightning.
Everyone: "......" Who am I? Where am I? What just happened? Where did the lightning come from on a clear day? Did they see it wrong? Then where did this pit come from?
Not long after, an ambulance arrived and stopped beside Liu Ting. Two nurses got out of the car with a stretcher. The nurse walking in front wasn't paying attention, stepped into the pit, twisted her ankle, lost her balance, and almost fell onto Liu Ting.
Nurse: "Cough cough cough! Why is there such a big pit on the road?"
A little girl nearby: "Maybe some scum bag present was making an oath just now, and the lightning struck."
Nurse: "......"
Finally, Liu Ting was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. Upon hearing that their son had been hit by a car, the Liu family couple, terrified, immediately put down their work and rushed to the hospital.
Looking at the person lying in the ICU, Wu Yanhong cried herself into a faint in Liu Zhengguo's arms. Upon learning that her son had been diagnosed with a serious illness, Wu Yanhong couldn't accept the reality and cried herself into a faint again in Liu Zhengguo's arms.
Liu Zhengguo: "......"
Liu Zhengguo placed Wu Yanhong on another hospital bed, walked out of the room, and asked the doctor, "Save my son. No matter the cost."
The doctor looked at the folder in his hand and said with a serious expression, "This is not a matter of money."
Liu Zhengguo frowned and asked, "What does the doctor mean by that?"
"Your son's illness requires a bone marrow transplant, but our hospital happens to not have bone marrow that matches your son..." The doctor paused midway through his sentence, glanced at Liu Zhengguo, and continued, "Please have your relatives get tested for bone marrow compatibility."
After speaking, the doctor tucked his pen into the pocket of his white coat, picked up the folder, and turned to leave.
Watching the departing figure, Liu Zhengguo furrowed his brow and returned to the ward.
Wu Yanhong had just woken up. Seeing her husband's grim expression, tears flowed uncontrollably again. "Husband, what should we do? You don't think our son will be okay, do you!"
"He'll be fine. The doctor said he'll be fine after a bone marrow transplant."
Wu Yanhong: "......What? A bone marrow transplant?"
Liu Zhengguo nodded and said, "You go get tested for bone marrow compatibility. I still have some things at the company, so I'm leaving. Call me if anything happens."
Wu Yanhong: "Ah! Should I go..."
Seeing Liu Zhengguo's stern expression, Wu Yanhong swallowed and said, "Why don't you ask Ranran to try? My bone marrow definitely won't match."
Hearing this answer, Liu Zhengguo frowned. "That's your son."
Wu Yanhong's eyes flickered, and she said a little guiltily, "But..."
Before she could finish, Liu Zhengguo interrupted impatiently, "Alright, I'm leaving. You handle it."
With that, he strode away.

"Hello? Ranran? You... can you come to the hospital? Your brother is in trouble."
What? He's in trouble again? Didn't she tell Liu Ting not to leave school today? If she had known, she would have personally watched him.
Listening to Wu Yanhong's anxious voice on the phone, Liu Xinran frowned, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
It was the same in her past life. Liu Ting had an accident and needed a bone marrow transplant. When she went for compatibility testing, she found out her bone marrow didn't match, and then she was discovered not to be of the Liu family's bloodline... After that, she was abandoned...
