Chapter 180 Not Far From Death
Huo Yubai's handsome face turned extremely cold.
Would Shen Yan consider him?
impossible.
"So, Mr. Huo, stop bothering her. It's pointless for a man to be so persistent." Gu Yunwei smiled meaningfully.
"You think sowing discord will work?" Huo Yubai's handsome and noble face was devoid of any warmth, and his already pale face appeared even colder.
Gu Yunwei looked at him with an ambiguous expression: "You know very well that I don't need to sow discord in this matter. The day the truth is revealed, there will be no possibility between you and Shen Yan. She risked her life to save your mother this time because she wanted to completely sever ties with you. I was just helping her out."
Huo Yubai sneered: "So you deliberately invited her to your birthday party, even if Gu Heng didn't mention it, you would have told her."
“She has the right to know the truth.” Gu Yun did not admit to his conspiracy.
However, since Gu Heng was going to play the villain, he naturally wouldn't take the blame.
Unfortunately, Gu Heng didn't know that he was the one who had absolutely no hope.
Even today, I'm still thinking about how to repair my relationship with Shen Yan.
"I'm going back to my ward, Mr. Huo. You should also get some rest and recover soon." Gu Yun smiled as he retreated to his ward.
Huo Yubai frowned, truly regretting sending Shen Yan to this hospital!
-
Two days later.
I woke up.
I was lying on my side in the hospital bed, feeling a sharp pain and a cool sensation in my back.
"Don't move." A gentle voice came: "I'm changing your dressing."
"Nurse, how am I?" I was still a bit groggy.
"You were stabbed by a rusty iron rod and had a fever for two days, but it's gone now," the nurse said. "The wound on your wrist has been stitched up, but you'll need to rest for a while. Be careful not to use that hand."
"I'm in the intensive care unit?" I looked around.
"Yes." The nurse helped me straighten my clothes. "The dressing has been changed. I'll go call the doctor."
I nodded.
After the nurse left.
I took my own pulse and then breathed a sigh of relief.
This life was finally saved.
A few minutes later, the doctor came in.
"Professor Shen, you're awake! That's wonderful!" He was very excited.
I looked at him and said, "Thank you."
"Professor Shen, please don't say that. It's all I should do. Let me check you over. If everything is alright, you can be transferred to a regular ward in a little while," the doctor said.
"I understand the process." I slowly sat up. "How is Gu Yunwei?"
"Mr. Gu is fine now. The bullet didn't stay in his body, and he's recovering very well," the doctor explained with a smile.
I'm relieved.
"Mr. Huo is fine too," the doctor immediately added.
“I didn’t ask him.” I said coldly.
The doctor was embarrassed.
"Please examine me. They can't come into this intensive care unit. I have a lot of things to take care of," I urged.
"Okay, okay." The doctor realized he had said the wrong thing.
He checked me right away.
After examining my wound, he said, "Professor Shen, your wound may leave a scar."
"So what if there's a scar? It's a miracle the person didn't die," I remarked.
"That's true." The doctor said awkwardly, "But if you wear a backless dress, I'm afraid it won't work."
I smiled and said, "It's okay."
"Then I'll have them take you to a regular ward now," the doctor said.
"Okay, thank you for your help." I nodded.
The doctor turned and left.
I breathed a sigh of relief, picked up my phone from the cabinet, and contacted Xia Zhe and the others to come over.
After being transferred to a regular ward.
Xia Zhe was the first to arrive.
I asked about the situation over the past two days.
"Everything has been normal these past two days," Xia Zhe said, "except for Huo Changzhou."
"What's wrong with him?" I asked, puzzled.
“During the transport, his men tried to save him, but he died as a result,” Xia Zhe explained. “Apart from him, there were no other casualties.”
"Wait, his people saved him, so how did he die?" I couldn't understand.
“His men stopped the car, and chaos ensued. He took the opportunity to escape, and by the time the police found him, he was already on the verge of death,” Xia Zhe said. “I asked around, and the place where they found him wasn’t far from where the accident happened. His hands and feet were smashed into a pulp by a large rock.”
I was shocked.
“He deserves to die. It turns out he hurt many innocent girls. Some of them were tortured by him, disfigured, or left with lifelong disabilities.” Xia Zhe was full of anger: “I heard the youngest one just came of age. He’s a beast, a piece of scum.”
I know there must be a reason why Huo Changzhou was crippled by Huo Yubai.
But Huo Yubai really dared to do this.
Isn't he afraid of getting into trouble?
"Please follow up on this matter." I paused for a moment. "If there are any problems, just let me know."
Xia Zhe was taken aback for a moment: "Professor Shen, your worries are unnecessary. Someone has already stepped forward to take the blame for this. The other party is the fiancé of one of the victims. That girl was depressed for a long time after being assaulted by Huo Changzhou. In the end, she couldn't get over it and committed suicide."
“Then try your best to help him.” My gaze was deep: “Take care of Huo Changzhou’s remaining forces and then hand them over to the police.”
"Okay." Xia Zhe nodded.
Ding ding.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Huo Yubai pushed open the door and walked in.
Eyes facing each other.
"What are you doing here?" I frowned.
Everyone said it's okay.
I also returned his mother to him.
"I heard you woke up, so I came to see you." He lowered his eyes, looking pitiful and innocent. "I also brought you some food."
"I'm not hungry." I refused: "I hurt your mother so much, and you still bring me food? Be careful she scolds you."
He smiled and said, "You're not that kind of person."
"How do you know I'm not?" I scoffed. "Do you think you know me well?"
He walked over and placed the food on the table next to him: "I don't know you, but I believe in you. You have your reasons for everything you do."
I glared at him: "That's your own mother, don't you even question it?"
“But she’s a patient.” Huo Yubai looked at me meaningfully: “Are you still willing to continue treating her?”
I laughed in exasperation: "Huo Yubai, you wouldn't be trying to take this opportunity to get involved with me again, would you?"
“Yes, that’s what I think.” His dark eyes were deep. “But the choice is yours, but I believe Professor Shen, you won’t give up halfway.”
He really knows me very well.
I have been personally treating and following up on He Ya's illness all along, and it is not in my nature to just let it go.
But I really didn't expect her to frame me in front of Huo Yubai that day.
At least I never abused her, nor did I hit her, scold her, or deprive her of food.
I suspect Huo Changzhou did this and then framed me.
Or rather, he was betting that Huo Yubai would break ties with me after hearing He Ya say that.
Then I will no longer care about Huo Yubai's health.
In this way, Huo Yubai might really be close to death.
