Chapter 364 - Defy The Royal Command!
Chapter 364 – Defy The Royal Command!
"How are you feeling?" Feng Shufen asked, wrapping his arms protectively around Li Xue when she came out after giving her blood samples. His expressions, all cold and strict at her.
Li Xue smiled at him in assurance, knowing that he was not happy with her decision of helping the man who needed the blood to get back his life well. Tapping lightly on the knuckles of his hands that were holding her to give the support from the front, she said, "Why do you have to worry so much about me? I have just given the blood sample for now. Not like donating two-three bottles of blood to him. I am perfectly fine".
The man's brows tugged with some frown as he said with a poker face, "You don't have to donate your blood here. I have already called some people. They will give their blood samples and once their blood matches, they will donate. Wait till then. Once they arrive, we will leave". Saying this he brought her to take the seat on the chair that was placed on the sides.
Hearing his words, Li Xue shook her head in denial. "There is no need for that Mr Beelzebub. If the blood matches I can, myself, donate the blood. Why to give trouble to others. Furthermore, didn't you say that this hospital will be put under the strict lockdown? It won't be simply possible for you to bring in your men here." She said looking around the corridor that was sophisticatedly filled with more of the royal bodyguards now.
Feng Shufen's jaws clenched along with the hold of his fingers over her. Li Xue's wandering attention was once again forced on him. Not because she was feeling uncomfortable under his tightening grip, rather for she could feel him suppressing his anger inside. Did she upset him again? What's so wrong in donating blood to the Royal family?
"Mr Beelzebub …"
"Do you want to become the blood donating pig for the Royal family?" he asked with a scowl on his face. And Li Xue could literally feel the dark clouds forming above his head already. This was not just any temper; he was truly being angry now.
Getting all confused at his thoughts and ideas, Li Xue looked at him and asked, "Why would I like to become a blood donating pig for the Royal family. I am just saving the life of the person for once. I don't dream to become someone's life – saviour. I am …"
Her words were cut short when heard the man's words coming out through the gritted teeth. "You are not saving the life of just any person's here. You are saving the life of a Royal family member, more like to say the King itself. Do you think that you will be spared just after helping one time here?"
Li Xue's eyes went a little wide with a shock when saw him getting all agitated just because of one simple reason. Though she was not sure but looking at him like this she could say that it was his first time losing his cool. But soon her expression of shock dissipated as she said, "I don't have to worry so much about that Mr Beelzebub. Seeing you like this I am all confirmed that you can play that part for both of us".
"Li Xue …" he was about to say something and from his tone, the woman was all sure that it was the same old story. So not giving him any chance to begin it again, she said, "Mr Beelzebub, donation of my blood will only come after my blood matches the Royal family and I don't see the chances coming. Same as your sample did not match with him". Putting a full stop to the words, she shrugged her shoulders back.
But as she completed her words the nurse came forward towards them as she said, "Ma'am your blood got matched with the patient. You would have to wait here for the time being and we will inform you once your blood is needed. Right now, we have used the fill of blood from our blood bank but the doctors are sure that it will not be enough as the patient has lost too much blood earlier".
Li Xue was taken aback with the confirmation. Her eyes moved to the side to look at the man whose steely eyes had already turned cold enough to freeze the whole world in an instant.
"Ahh okay, sister! I will wait here. Tell me once the doctors need me" Li Xue said with some speed as if she was asking the nurse to run away as fast as she could, for her dear life.
As if the nurse too understood the threat, she nodded and was about to move away but before she could, the man said in a bone freezing tone, "I have called my men here. They will reach soon. Check their blood samples for your patient. They will donate as much as you need but my wife's blood will never be in your option".
The nurse felt complicated. She looked at Li Xue and did not know what to say. Though she was not sure of Feng Shufen's identity, being in the VVIP ward of the hospital already confirms that he is someone with a formidable identity. And given his words and tone, she could say that he must hold his wife too precious to himself that he did not hesitate in defying the Royals for the sake of her health.
But then again did she have any command on the situation? A big hell 'no'! She was just a mere nurse. There is no way she could go against the Royals.
"B- But sir, we are not sure if the blood of the arriving people will be even matching. S – Since your wife is already confirmed to be a matching donor, it would be only good for us to rely on her" The nurse said, slightly stuttering in her words.
"Shuf …", Li Xue called out to calm the man's nerves but before she could say something she was shot with his cold eyes and was brought to an understandable silence.
"Mister, it should be an honour for your wife that she will be able to help the Royal family. You have no option to back out from this. So, it would be only better for you to agree otherwise we hold a power to compel you too", a bodyguard said with some authoritative air as he came forward hearing the words circulating between the three people.
And that was all that it took the temperature to drop below the freezing point. "Compel me! Who holds such authority in this world?" The voice was low pitched but it was enough to resound in the ears of the man again and again. His stature trembled when felt the forced dominance shrouding him.
"I … I … That will be a royal command and n – no one will be able to defy it" the bodyguard stammered out. Though he knew that stammering should not be included in the attitude of a soldier but in front of this man he was just not able to help himself.
