Let's Get Married

Chapter 407: What did You Do to Her?

Lily surely has a fever and it seems severe because her body temperature reaches above 40℃.

Abby shakes Lily’s shoulders, trying to wake her up, “Lily, Lily?”

Vaguely aware that someone is shaking her, Lily regains consciousness and opens her eyes faintly. Somehow, she finds the sunlight entering from windows is so blinding that makes her uncomfortable.

But it’s the fever that makes her feel ill, not the light.

Although Lily’s awake now, she feels strongly dizzy and faint. Abby puts a fever cooling pad on her forehead, gets her take some medicine and finally calls an ambulance.

The waiting period is so painful and it makes Abby extremely agitated though the ambulance only takes minutes to come.

Lily’s body temperature is so high that the medicine she took is not working at all.

Fever is not some severe illness while it could lead to many complications with such a high temperature, like pneumonia, pulmonary edema, and meningitis. It’s hard to say.

There’s nothing Abby could do to help while waiting for the medical team besides changing cooling pads and being anxious.

Fortunately, the ambulance soon arrives. Nurses come upstairs with a wheelchair and they pull Lily up from the ground and place her on it, then goes straight into the lift and transfer her to the ambulance.

Everything happens so fast that Abby doesn’t have time to get changed. Then she puts a random coat on hastily and accompanies Lily to the hospital.

On the way to the nearest hospital, the First Hospital Affiliated of J University, a nurse puts her on a drip attempting to reduce her unusually high temperature.

Once arriving the hospital, the medical stuff run a series of tests on her. Abby is literally dazed when she saw Lily’s thermometer which shows her body temperature has risen to —

42℃.

In Abby’s limited medical knowledge system, a fever with a body temperature above 39℃ is rather severe; if exceeding 40℃, it will probably cause a confused state of mind and hallucination. 42℃ is something she never sees before.
