226 Answer to her questions

That same night, Xiu Mei and Lu Chen rushed to the military hospital where her first brother is being confined. She first saw her father standing in front of the glass window. 

She felt her knees slowly weakening as she got closer to her brother's room. And then she stopped. 

On the other side of the glass window lay her other brother, breathing through the oxygen mask with bandages wrapped around his shoulder. 

She felt dizzy and almost fell to the floor if it weren't for Lu Chen who quickly caught her and supported her body. 

She couldn't look away from the person lying on the bed. If it weren't for the electrocardiogram showing that he was still breathing, she would have thought that his brother had died. 

"Why are you—" Xiu Mei's father reacted as soon as he saw the two of them. He looked at his son-in-law who looked very apologetic to him while shaking his head. Then he glanced at his pale daughter.
