Grandpa Su shook his hands. “It’s not your fault, I didn’t expect anyone to attack you so publicly. It’s my fault for overlooking the situation, I should’ve asked for more people to protect you. The two injured bodyguards are fine, they used to be special forces and are experienced in combat. Plus, they weren’t shot in critical places, so they’ll make a quick recovery. Don’t feel pressured… you’re really strong, kid. You can’t use anesthesia, but still managed to pull through without a flinch.”

When Grandpa Su walked into Huo Mian’s room, he saw the military doctor tending to her wound; she couldn’t receive anesthesia because she was pregnant, making her treatment more complicated.

However, Huo Mian didn’t even frown, letting the doctor clean and dress her wound while persisting through the pain.

Grandpa Su truly admired how strong Huo Mian was.

“Where did you get hurt, let me see.” Su Yu walked up to her and carefully lifted Huo Mian’s comforter to see her calf wrapped up in a horrendous bandage.

“I’m fine, don’t worry about me.”

“You always say that, and look at what’s happening?” Su Yu began scolding her.

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Su got up and walked out, giving Huo Mian and Su Yu room to talk.

The latter glared at Huo Mian for a while before saying angrily, “Look at yourself…”

“I’m sorry, I’ll never do it again. I shouldn’t have gone on my own. I thought I’d be fine, leaving the mansion so late at night. I really needed to talk to Rick, but I overlooked the fact that there are people trying to hurt me… I’m sorry for making you, Mrs. Su, and Grandpa Su worry… I’m really sorry…” Huo Mian began apologizing before Su Yu could even begin his lecture, leaving him with nothing else to say…

“You… really need a good beating…”

“I’m pregnant, you can’t hit me.” Huo Mian smiled.

“How can you still be laughing? I have half a heart to strangle you to death, you scared the crap out of me.” Su Yu almost burst into flames thinking back to what happened.

“But I’m fine now, don’t worry about me…”

“What the f*ck is wrong with that asshole, Huo Siqian… why would he challenge me and try to ruin his perfect little life?” Su Yu thought Huo Siqian was the one who ordered the attack, so he began cursing him.

Huo Mian, however, shook her head. “Huo Siqian didn’t do this.”

“It wasn’t him? who else could it be?” Su Yu asked, feeling confused.

“Huo Siqian’s despicable, but he would never try to kill me. If it were him, he would’ve tried to kidnap me. But these people wanted me dead, so…”

“So the person behind this attack was Song Qingguo,” Su Yu said, calling Mayor Song out by name.

“Mhm, I think it’s him… I underestimated him…” Huo Mian said faintly.

“If it was really him, he sure had guts… trying to harm someone that the Su Family is trying to protect is like declaring war against our family. Damn, I’m not going to let him off the hook easily, who cares if he’s the mayor? I wouldn’t give a damn, even if he were the senator.”

“Calm down, Su Yu, don’t act rashly…”

“Don’t worry, I know what to do with arrogant people who think they have all the power.”

– At the same time, inside the Song Family mansion –

“You’re all useless! Useless!”

Mayor Song was throwing a fit – he finally found an opportunity to attack and sent 20 so-called elites. However, not only did they fail, Commander Su’s people killed them all and discreetly dealt with their bodies before a word even got out.
