“Aunt Zhang, give Doctor Mu a call. Fill him in on Jiye’s condition and invite him over to the house.” Su Qianxun walked over and sat at the bedside to examine her brother’s condition after she finished speaking. Aunt Zhang immediately went to make the call.

“Jiye, it’s your older sister. Listen to me. Things have passed, and you don’t have to be afraid anymore. The bad guys have been beaten and they’ve run away.” Su Qianxun patted him softly as she comforted him gently.

Only upon hearing Su Qianxun’s voice did Su Jiye gradually relax. However, he was still very afraid. He suddenly sat up and hugged Su Qianxun tightly. His eyes were filled with fear.

Su Qianxun had always been patient with her brother. She kept comforting him gently until Mu Bai arrived in haste. With Su Qianxun’s company and Mu Bai’s treatment, Su Jiye’s condition noticeably improved…

After the two of them hummed Su Jiye to sleep, Su Qianxun tucked him in. Su Qianxun and Mu Bai then exited the room, one after the other.

“Doctor Mu, is my brother’s condition getting serious?” Su Qianxun asked worriedly.

“What happened would have definitely caused him some trauma. You should send him to the hospital for another treatment in the near future should you have the time.”

“All right. It is all my fault. I can’t accompany him and be by his side all the time.” Su Qianxun really felt guilty.

“You’re doing very well already. You need to make a living as well. It is impossible for you to stay with him all the time,” Mu Bai comforted her.

Even so, Su Qianxun still feel sad, especially now that she had allowed someone to hurt her younger brother like that.

Lan Yingying was really too mean. She actually harmed such a pure and naive person.

…..

In the hospital ward.

Tang Zui was holding Gu Mian’s hand tightly. He never let go of her, not even when his wound was sutured.

Gu Mian was really anxious. She truly had no idea how Tang Zui would punish her this time!

When Tang Zui woke up, the first thing he did was look at Gu Mian. Gu Mian was terrified. She widened her eyes as she stared at him and said, “If you want to prosecute me, just go ahead! If it’s inconvenient for you, I can call the police on your behalf!”

“Water!” Tang Zui only uttered a single word as he fixed his gaze on her.

Gu Mian said nothing.

“Pour me a glass of water!” Tang Zui had been wanting to drink since the previous time he woke up, but Tang Liyun, that old piece of shit, knocked the glass of water off his hand. Now, he felt as if his throat was catching fire.

“Let me go. I’ll help you pour.” Gu Mian gestured at their interlocked fingers.

Tang Zui looked at her for a long time, and only then did he slowly loosen his grip on her hand. Gu Mian quickly got up, poured a glass of water for him and passed it to him. Tang Zui merely looked at her and said, “Are you expecting me to sit up all by myself?”

Gu Mian was at a loss for words.

Gu Mian slid one hand underneath Tang Zui’s neck as she helped him up. She brought the glass to the side of his lips and fed him the water.

Someone opened the ward door and two policemen walked into the room soon after that. Gu Mian’s entire body stiffened the moment she saw the policemen. The palms of her hands were starting to become sweaty. She was only nineteen years old, and she did not want to go to jail at all!

Tang Zui felt the anxiety boiling up in the young woman. He glanced at her before he looked in the direction of the policeman.

“Sorry to interrupt for a moment. The hospital filed a police report saying that there has been a crime case. Mr Tang, may I ask how did you sustain that wound on your body?” the police questioned.

“Which wound are you referring to? The one on the head? The one on the chest? Or my internal injury?

When Gu Mian heard what he said, her heart skipped a beat…

“Just tell us about all of them so that it’s easier for us to arrest the person.”

Gu Mian heard what the policeman said. She looked at Tang Zui anxiously. She was almost out of breath. If Tang Zui really talked and told on her, she would probably really go to jail.
