“I’m fine…” Huo Mian coughed a couple of times, feeling waves of pain from her chest.
Just now, she really gave it all she had… but it wasn’t out of impulsivity. If she could really kill him, then everything would be over.
However…
Huo Mian lowered her head and sat down on the couch in Jiang Xiaowei and Wei Liao’s living room.
“Mian, what’s going on? Were you just in a fight?” she asked worriedly upon seeing how haggard Huo Mian looked.
“I was just… in a tiny accident.”
Wei Liao: “…”
Jiang Xiaowei: “…”
Su Yu: “…”
“A tiny accident?” Jiang Xiaowei repeated in confusion.
“I went to the Huo Corporation and slammed my car into Huo Siqian’s… My Audi R8 is scrap metal now.”
Wei Liao: “…”
Jiang Xiaowei: “…”
Su Yu: “…”
“Are you crazy?” Su Yu was the first one to shout angrily.
“I really wanted him to die… if he doesn’t die, Qin Chu will,” Huo Mian said slowly. This was the truth – Huo Siqian was completely crazy. He had no bottom line, so as long as he was alive, he would think of a thousand other ways to deal with Qin Chu.
“There’re other ways to kill him, you didn’t have to do it yourself… I thought you were a f*cking genius, but now it seems like you’re no more than a stupid head…” Su Yu said as he angrily walked up to Huo Mian. He grabbed her by the arm and began dragging her towards the door.
“Where are you taking me?”
“The hospital.”
“No.”
“You have to.”
“I’m fine.”
“Still.”
Just like that, Su Yu forcibly dragged Huo Mian into his Lamborghini and drove her to the hospital.
– Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, the First Hospital –
The doctor looked at Huo Mian’s chest X-Ray and said slowly. “Dr. Huo, it’s a good thing that you didn’t injure your organs. You sustained minor injuries in your chest, be careful in the future and drive safely.”
“I got it, thank you, Dr. Wang.”
“You’re welcome, I’ll prescribe you with some anti-inflammatories. Go home and get some rest. If you’re still in pain, set up an anti-inflammatory drip and you’ll feel better.”
“Okay.”
Although Huo Mian only sustained minor internal injuries, Su Yu’s heart broke into pieces. He even wished that he was the one who had gotten hurt instead.
The atmosphere between them was grim when they walked out of the cardiac department.
Su Yu was furious… furious that Huo Mian would disregard her own life to kill Huo Siqian.
“Su Yu… are you mad at me?”
“Forget it, no one can stop you if you’re trying to die.”
“Don’t be mad at me… I was just too angry.”
“Still, you shouldn’t have tried to die with him… idiot.”
Su Yu stared angrily at Huo Mian; he really wanted to pinch her face for being so hell-bent on.
“Qin Chu… is really in trouble this time,” Huo Mian said after biting her lips.
“He didn’t commit murder, the truth will come out soon, right?”
“No, the evidence is damning. Huo Siqian planned everything. He killed Song Yishi and perfectly framed Qin Chu for it; his plans were foolproof.”
“Then why didn’t the police arrest Huo Siqian?” Su Yu asked.
“He has a time witness…”
“Don’t worry, I’m sure the law will prove him innocent.”
“No, the law will kill him. If they really go by legal procedures, Qin Chu’s going to die,” Huo Mian said dejectedly.
“Then what do you want to do?” Su Yu frowned as he glanced at Huo Mian, worried that she might do something stupid again.
“I’m not sure yet…”
“Let’s talk about this, we still have time. Don’t panic and don’t do anything stupid… Huo Siqian’s not that easy to kill.”
“I know,” Huo Mian replied with her head down. She felt like she had been completely stripped of all energy.
“Huo Mian…”
“Mhm?”
“Buck up… you need to hold on.”
“Mhm.” Huo Mian nodded.
“Tell me if you need me.”
“I will.”
– Outside the Huo Corporation –
The security guard when up to carefully help Huo Siqian up, but the latter kicked him to the ground, leaving him dumbstruck. “President Huo…?”
“If you ever touch her again, I’m going to chop you up into pieces.” Huo Siqian’s icy gaze swept past the guard’s innocent expression.
