Chapter 395 — Drank Until Blood Came Up
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Wei Zhao mixed another mug of the concoction. Su Taiwei had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow Wei Zhao's lead, mixing one for himself as well.
Wei Zhao raised his mug and poured it into his stomach with a speed that made drinking plain boiled water look slow.
Su Taiwei drew a deep breath and began chugging his own mug down. But when he was halfway through, he finally hit his limit. His stomach no longer felt like it belonged to him. It was contracting violently. With a retching "poof," everything he had drunk came spewing out, splattering across the floor, streaked through with great gouts of fresh blood...
"Cough -- cough -- cough!" Su Taiwei hacked loudly, and with every violent cough, a torrent of blood came up with it.
"Taiwei, what's wrong with you?!" Su Taizao jumped in alarm and rushed over to support Su Taiwei, patting gently on his back. But the coughing showed no sign of stopping. Su Taiwei was still spitting up mouthful after mouthful of blood.
"Taizao, get Taiwei to the hospital!" An Liwen frowned. He too could see that Su Taiwei had reached his absolute limit today. Those last two mugs of mixed liquor had been virtually forced down his throat. If it had been ordinary baijiu, it might have been survivable. But it was a cocktail of everything -- how could something like this not end in disaster?
"I'm fine, I think it's just a stomach bleed..." Su Taiwei finally stopped coughing. The earlier fit had been caused by a mixture of liquor and blood choking his windpipe, and now that he could speak, he waved his hand: "I can get to the hospital on my own. Brother Jianwen, cousin, I'll leave things here to you two!"
"Let us take you!" Su Taizao was deeply worried about Su Taiwei's condition.
"No. If I concede now, all my efforts so far will have been for nothing!" Su Taiwei shook his head. He was not about to admit defeat so soon.
"All right then, be careful on your own!" An Liwen sighed. "Call me when you get to the hospital!"
"I know, Brother An..." Su Taiwei gritted his teeth against the pain, limped out of the private room, and hurried down the stairs...
"Brother Lin, you can see Taiwei has drunk himself into a stomach bleed. Isn't it time we switched to a more civilized way of drinking?" As Su Taizao spoke, a deep hatred burned in his eyes. Su Taiwei was his cousin, after all, and he had been drunk into the hospital. How could he not be furious?
An Liwen's face was dark as well, without a trace of a smile. He had probably come to hate Wei Zhao in his heart too.
"A stomach bleed? I'd say it's a perforation!" Wei Zhao shook his head. "Just don't let him die on us!"
"What? A perforation?" Su Taizao was startled. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"You never asked me!" Wei Zhao shrugged. "Otherwise I could have given him a massage and maybe stopped the bleeding!"
Only then did An Liwen and Su Taizao remember that Wei Zhao seemed to know medical arts, and that he was no amateur either. The last time An Liwen had suffered food poisoning, it was Wei Zhao who had stepped in to save him.
An Liwen had never regarded Wei Zhao as a lifesaver but as an enemy, so it had never even occurred to him to think along those lines. Only after hearing Wei Zhao's words did he secretly curse his own regret!
