Chapter 1424: Going to Wei Lingnan

She followed him out, and the crowd flowed.

Outside the movie theater was a bustling commercial street. The bright lights and stars in the night sky complemented each other beautifully.

A gust of night wind blew and Wei Lingnan asked her, “Are you cold?”

She shook her head subconsciously, and heard him ask again, “Why didn’t you eat the popcorn?”

Only then did she realize that she still had the popcorn in her hands. It was still piled up like a hill. While watching the movie just now, she had been focused on staring at him with complex thoughts, so how could she have the spare time to eat the popcorn? “I… was a bit uncomfortable, so I didn’t want to eat it.” She hurriedly made an excuse and passed the popcorn to him. “Do you want it?”

“Uncomfortable?”

“It was probably due to lack of oxygen in the cinema just now.” A lie always had to be rounded with more lies. Xia Yingluo didn’t want him to continue asking, so she said, “If you don’t want to eat it, I’ll find a plastic bag to put it in. Don’t waste it.”

Although she was a young lady, she was well-educated. “Do not waste food” was her family motto.

Wei Lingnan looked at her, then leaned down and took a handful of popcorn from the piled-up hill. He started chewing slowly. His posture was calm and elegant, and his long shadow was dragged by the neon lights on the street, like a top beast receiving food from its owner’s hands. After a while, he raised his head and stared at her intensely, his eyes shining like stars in the night sky.

Her face felt hot subconsciously.

He chuckled and embraced her, kissing her despite her slight struggle.

It was a little overbearing but gentle kiss.

Just down the street, in the starry night, they enjoyed this beautiful and peaceful moment like many ordinary couples on Earth. He put one hand on her waist, and the other intertwined with her fingers, as if swearing an oath that they would never be separated.

The traffic on the street under the night was woven.

On the overpass not far away, a woman stared resentfully at the two kissing people.

Gu Jinxiu wore an inconspicuous shirt, with half of her body hidden in the shadow of the fence by the bridge. She gnashed her teeth and said to herself, “Xia Yingluo… what right do you have to be with Nan? He is mine! Mine…”

Although in the eyes of ordinary human beings, Xia Yingluo and Wei Lingnan, who had disguised themselves with their energy, looked like two ordinary people, in the eyes of Gu Jinxiu, who also had the blood of Skatana, she could easily see through their true colors. Today, she had originally been following Wei Lingnan. She missed him too much and was even willing to look at him just once. But she did not expect to see him and Xia Yingluo kissing on the street.

Gu Jinxiu simply wanted to rush forward and tear Xia Yingluo into pieces, but she couldn’t. If she did that, in the end, she wouldn’t hurt Xia Yingluo, and she herself might even be torn apart by Wei Lingnan.

It was so unfair… so unfair!

Gu Jinxiu’s fingers coated with bright red nail polish were pinched tightly on the railing, and she wished she could dig out a hole in the railing of the footbridge. She wanted revenge, and she definitely did not want that bitch named Xia Yingluo to be better off than her! Even if she couldn’t have a conflict with Xia Yingluo directly, she would definitely find a way!

The solution was quickly found.

In other words, women’s jealousy was always terrible.

She remembered that Xia Yingluo had a good friend named Jin Ling’er, and the girl named Jin Ling’er was an ordinary human being. If… she made Jin Ling’er injured or even dead, Xia Yingluo would be very depressed, right? Then she wouldn’t have the heart to date Wei Lingnan! Then she could take advantage of the situation and might even have the opportunity to make a comeback!

Gu Jinxiu had a vicious smile on her delicate face.

She followed Jin Ling’er for several days, lurking in a bustling crowd in a bustling street, and while Jin Ling’er was crossing the road, she quickly ignited energy. A truck suddenly ran towards Jin Ling’er…

Screams, cries, and harsh brakes…

The news reported that this major traffic accident caused two deaths, one serious injury, and four or five minor injuries. Unfortunately, the actress Jin Ling’er who had debuted less than a year ago got seriously injured.

Xia Yingluo received the news and her voice shook as she said, “How is Ling’er now? How could a traffic accident have happened?”

What brought this news was her agent Tan Ying, who methodically replied, “Ms. Jin is still in the intensive care unit and is not out of danger. Du Zheng learned about the news and has rushed to accompany her. Regarding the driver, It was discovered that it was drunk driving and he has been arrested.”

Drunk driving?

These people who drunk and drove don’t care about themselves and others’ lives!

Xia Yingluo was furious and hurriedly went out. “Prepare the car, I will go to the hospital to see her. And quickly tell Wei Lingnan to let him go and see!” In this world, the best medical technology was undoubtedly in the Wei Family, so of course, she had to let him go at this moment.

Tan Ying also knew that the Weis’ technology was developed, and he answered quickly.

Xia Yingluo came to the hospital. Jin Ling’er was still lying in the intensive care unit, and across a thick, sealed glass window, Du Zheng was standing in the hallway, wearing a smart suit and leather shoes. She didn’t know where he had hurried over from, but his face was grave as if he was about to drip water.

Xia Yingluo stepped forward and asked, “Brother Du Zheng, how is Ling’er?”

Seeing her, Du Zheng said coldly, “She hasn’t escaped the danger. I asked the hospital to rescue her at all costs. Now that the operation is done, the doctor said that it’s up to her whether she can survive.”

Xia Yingluo was also very worried, but she comforted him. “Don’t worry. Ling’er is a good person, so she will definitely meet with good luck.”

She couldn’t even convince herself. She raised her wrist and looked at her delicate female watch, then took out her phone to call Wei Lingnan. “Where are you, how long are you going to take? Hurry!”

As soon as her voice fell, she saw a man appearing at the other end of the corridor, holding a mobile phone in one hand. He said, “I’m here, Ah Luo, don’t be afraid.” He walked towards her step by step as if he was a savior who had fallen from heaven.

She rejoiced, and for the first time since a long time, she sincerely welcomed his arrival. “Wei Lingnan!”

He looked down at her. “Ah Luo, I’m here.”

On the way, he had a general understanding of the cause and effect of the incident, and after soothing Xia Yingluo, he turned to look at Du Zheng. “I’m going into the ward.”

Du Zheng looked at Xia Yingluo suspiciously. “Yingluo, is it okay?”

Xia Yingluo said, “The technology at Wei Lingnan’s is very advanced and is better than the hospital. Brother Du Zheng, even if you don’t believe him, you should believe me. I won’t harm Ling’er.”

Du Zheng nodded and asked his assistant to negotiate with the hospital and let Wei Lingnan enter.

Wei Lingnan walked into the room wearing a full set of sterile protective clothing and bent over to look at the girl in the hospital bed.
