Chapter 75: Chapter 74: Show Effect? Big News!

Gu Yu had just walked off the stage when his legs gave way, but fortunately, Lin Xinyue was there to catch him in time.

"Hiss—"

He bit down on his teeth and inhaled sharply, feeling intense stabbing pain all over his buttocks.

According to his own assessment, it was likely a pelvic contusion or a hip joint injury.

As for the ten-centimeter long laceration on his arm, it didn't seem to hurt much.

Now there was only a faint feeling of numbness, as his body's self-protection mechanism had already kicked in.

However, Gu Yu knew that once the protective mechanism wore off, he would probably be in excruciating pain.

[Do you want to use Check-in Points to heal the injury—Comprehensive assessment: Minor injury level II, requires 1000 Check-in Points.]

A system message suddenly popped up, and Gu Yu was stunned; he hadn't expected the system to have this feature.

Rapid healing of injuries?

This was obviously not feasible—it was too unrealistic!

He didn't want to be taken away for research!

"Don't touch his wound! Let me handle it!"

Lin Xinyue carefully helped Gu Yu sit on the sofa, just as an anxious voice came from behind them.

Turning around, she saw Professor Dai Zhengguo, who she had seen before in the cafeteria, hurrying over with an emergency medical kit in hand.

"Mr. Dai, please help!"

Her eyes reddened, her lips tightly pressed together, a tear the size of a bean perched on her eyes, straining not to fall.

"Sure, I'll take care of Yu's injuries!"

Dai Zhengguo nodded solemnly, placing the medical kit on the table.

Upon seeing the narrow and bleeding wound on Gu Yu's right hand, Dai Zhengguo was so angry that he nearly shattered his teeth.

This was the hand meant for wielding surgical scalpel!

This was a life-saving hand!

And it was so severely injured!

If it resulted in any complications, Gu Yu's career in surgery might be over!

Immediate treatment was crucial!

"I'll wash the wound first."

Eagerly, Dai Zhengguo opened the lid of the medical kit and quickly took out a 500ml bag of saline water, tearing off the seal and repeatedly rinsing Gu Yu's arm's narrow wound.

At this moment, Gu Yu hadn't felt the pain yet, and the cool sensation was actually a bit comforting!

But once the rinsing was done, and Dai Zhengguo took out a bottle of iodine but put it back to switch for hydrogen peroxide, he knew something bad was coming.

"Hydrogen peroxide is better for cleaning contaminated wounds, hang in there!"

Dai Zhengguo glanced at him, then cracked the bottle open with a click.

Gu Yu instinctively turned his head away not to look at his own wound, his back molars slightly clenched, bracing himself for the agony of the hydrogen peroxide wash to come.

Just then, a cool hand gently grabbed his left hand.

Gu Yu turned his head and met Lin Xinyue's misty big eyes.

He tried to give Lin Xinyue a relaxed smile, but before he could raise the corners of his mouth, Dai Zhengguo poured the hydrogen peroxide on his wound.

The moment the hydrogen peroxide contacted the open wound, it foamed up white.

"Hiss—ah—"

Gu Yu's eyes widened, his teeth gritted, veins on his temples bulging, and a fine sweat quickly breaking out on his forehead.

His body uncontrollably trembled, all fingers, except for those on his left hand, tightly clenched.

Lin Xinyue suddenly felt a sting, as Gu Yu's fingernails had pierced her palm.

But she did not let go, instead gripping tighter, hoping to share some of Gu Yu's pain.

Tears fell from Gu Yu's eyes, and she couldn't help but cry too, yet covered her mouth with her other hand to remain silent.

Dai Zhengguo poured out a whole 350ml bottle of hydrogen peroxide in about three minutes.

He needed to ensure that every part of the wound was cleaned two to three times.

"Alright, if I'm not mistaken, this is a cut from the stage scaffolding, and you'll need a tetanus shot."

After dressing Gu Yu's wound with a sterile gauze, Dai Zhengguo's expression remained serious.

Gu Yu released his clenched jaw, took a deep breath, his face covered in beads of sweat.

Lin Xinyue unhesitatingly used the sleeve of her gown to wipe the sweat off Gu Yu's face.

"Your palm!"

As soon as Gu Yu regained his senses, he immediately noticed the crescent-shaped wound in her palm and grabbed her hand.

"Mmm... it's okay..."

Lin Xinyue subconsciously wanted to pull back her hand, but Gu Yu firmly restrained it.

"Fool…" Gu Yu felt a sting in his nose, reproaching her with distress, "Mr. Dai, please also disinfect Xinyue's hand."

Dai Zhengguo nodded, took out an iodine swab, and treated Lin Xinyue's wound.

His expression softened.

He knew Gu Yu hadn't chosen the wrong girlfriend.

"Let's go! Go get an injection, the sooner the better!"

After Dai Zhengguo treated Lin Xinyue's wounds, he packed all the first aid supplies back into the box.

Lin Xinyue supported Gu Yu as he stood up, and only then could Gu Yu walk with small, careful steps.

"Did you sustain any other injuries?"

Dai Zhengguo's recently relaxed eyebrows furrowed deeply once again.

"Hmm... it should just be a bruise on the hip, nothing serious."

Gu Yu nodded, not knowing the specifics, but he could guess the general situation.

Besides, the system had only judged his injury as minor level two, so it definitely wasn't serious.

"That's what you say, but you still need to get it checked."

Only then did Dai Zhengguo's heart slightly relax.

...

When the three guys from Room 502 arrived panting at the back door of the stage, they were told Professor Dai had already left with Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue in his car.

"With Professor Dai there, Laosi will definitely be okay."

"Ah! I thought it was part of the planned show effects just now!"

"Damn! How could such an accident happen just like that!"

If it wasn't for the message from Gu Yu just before they left for the hospital, they would still think that the previous incident was just a special performance!

After all, Gu Yu was incredibly composed!

Despite being injured, he had still managed to complete the entire singing performance!

Apart from the three who knew the real information, almost all the audience members took it for granted that the earlier incident was a show staged for effect.

At the very front row of the leadership seats at the bottom of the venue was now empty.

In a temporarily prepared spacious room, voices of scolding could be heard occasionally.

"Investigate! You must investigate for me, what exactly caused this accident!"

"If it wasn't for the quick reaction of Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue, our Haidong University would have lost face tonight!" Sёarᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Who set up the stage? How could the stage manager make such a serious mistake?"

Principal Xue's face was livid, and none of the leaders present dared to make a sound.

Principal Xue was known for his good temper, but this was the first time he was this furious!

But someone definitely needed to take responsibility at this moment.

"Principal Xue, I arranged the stage, and I assure you that I will give you an investigation result by noon tomorrow."

Dean Shu Fugai voluntarily stepped forward.

In Shu Fugai's view, the stage he arranged definitely had no issues; it must have been an oversight by the stage manager.

A simple inquiry should reveal the cause.

"Good! Dean Shu, by tomorrow afternoon, I must hear a real, accurate reason! We can't let our students' blood be shed in vain!"

Hearing Dean Shu's assurance, Principal Xue's expression slightly eased, and he then turned to another school leader, a short, chubby man wearing gold-rimmed round glasses.

"Old Duan, after the ceremony, you must take good care of the two students; we owe them a big time! No reward is too much!"

The leader known as Old Duan quickly nodded.

"Alright, let's disband the meeting! The next performance is about to start, send two people to the stage control side to make sure no accidents happen again!"

Principal Xue gestured with his hand, and the leaders filed out one by one, returning to their seats.

Actually, with Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue's grand duet earlier, although the subsequent performances were also quite spectacular, everyone lacked enthusiasm.

Each performance started with normal applause and then ended with normal applause.

Everyone was still immersed in the previous "show effects," except for Yu Xiaochuan, who pondered while rewatching the video he had recorded earlier.

He always felt that Gu Yu was really injured!

The blood and uncontrollable shaking of the hands didn't seem like acting at all!

"Could it really have been an actual accident just now?"

Yu Xiaochuan paused the video on a close-up of Gu Yu's injured right hand and turned to look at the group of school leaders who had just taken a break and come back.

He suddenly had an epiphany!
