Chapter 49 Don't Touch Me, Her Resistance

at the same time.

A gold Rolls-Royce is speeding along the national highway.

Fu Beichen sat in the back seat, his face so gloomy it could drip water; he had never been so anxious.

The phone had just rang, and Lin Qi's voice was urgent.

"Mr. Fu, we've found it!"

"An unfamiliar van went into Dongtou Village early this morning!"

"Our people have pinpointed the exact location!"

A location message was sent to Fu Beichen's phone.

[Location shared: Abandoned breeding farm in Dongtou Village]

It's less than two kilometers from where he is now.

"Drive faster!" Fu Beichen roared at the driver.

The driver floored the accelerator.

...The man pulled two black, blood-bat-like animals out of the cage, their two sharp teeth bared.

He slowly approached Gu Xingnian, reassuring her, "It's very well-behaved, don't be afraid. It behaved very well just now. Humans can coexist with animals."

Gu Xingnian shook her head desperately, instinctively backing away, feeling a wave of nausea. At this moment, blood was already flowing all over the ground, and her face was as white as paper.

Woof woof woof!

A faint beam of light shone through the window, followed by the fierce barking of dogs.

The man's face suddenly darkened, and he immediately felt annoyed at being disturbed.

Wasn't the destination Chuancheng? How could anyone have found this place?

He retrieved the blood bat, quickly grabbed his camera, put on the cage, and ran outside!

Before leaving, he turned off the lights and closed the door.

It was late at night, and most people wouldn't have noticed this small room. Besides, her wound was still bleeding...

Gu Xingnian groped her way in the dark, making "mmm" sounds as she slowly moved toward the door.

The door was suddenly kicked open.

Then I heard a "snap" sound, and the room lights came on, the light was blinding.

Gu Xingnian shrank back in fright.

Fu Beichen's face appeared in the doorway, backlit, his features clearly defined.

The scene before him caused his heart to stop.

Gu Xingnian had several buttons torn off her coat, her left arm was covered in blood, and there was a large pool of blood on the ground.

The red was so striking it was shocking.

His heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, the pain suffocating him, the self-blame overwhelming him, and the fear instantly engulfing him.

He quickly took off his coat, strode forward, and wrapped it tightly around her as she shivered.

Body heat is transmitted through the fabric.

He saw the tape on her mouth, reached out, and carefully peeled it off.

Her lips were swollen and red, with marks from being torn by duct tape.

Her hands and feet were bound by thick ropes. When he gently untied them, a blood-red fire dragon stung his eyes.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" His voice was hoarse, trembling without him even realizing it. "I'm sorry, Gu Xingnian, I'm late."

He kept repeating it, trying to soothe her and also to calm his own wildly beating heart.

"Don't... touch... me!" Gu Xingnian managed to squeeze out a few words, her face as pale as paper, large tears rolling down her cheeks and landing on the back of his hand, burning hot.

Only then did Fu Beichen realize what heartache felt like. He picked her up and rushed out.

She was very light, like a feather.

As he passed the door, he didn't stop or turn his head, but his voice was icy cold.

"We'll dig three feet into the ground to find him."

"I want to see him alive or dead."

The car sped off like an arrow toward the nearest hospital.

The carriage was filled with a strong, pungent smell of blood.

Fu Beichen took out gauze and medicine from the first-aid kit in the car and quickly treated the deep wound on her arm.

His fingers and clothes were stained with her blood, sticky and warm.

He carefully cleaned and bandaged her wounds, trying to be as gentle as possible, but it still caused her body to tremble slightly.

After bandaging one area, he went to check other areas.

"Where else does it hurt?" he asked, his voice strained.

Gu Xingnian's mind was a complete blank, as if it were separated by a thick layer of cotton. At this moment, her face was as white as paper, and she was feeling dizzy.

Fu Beichen reached out, his fingertips trembling slightly, and helped her fasten the buttons on her coat. The touch of his fingertips on her cold skin fueled the violent anger burning within him even more intensely.

Who harmed him?

He wants to make those scum wish they were dead!

Torture him to pieces! Rake his bones to ashes!

Gu Xingnian leaned weakly against him with her eyes closed, completely exhausted and almost in shock.

"Drive faster!" Fu Beichen roared, tightening his arms to hold her even closer in his embrace.

From the moment he found her, he never dared to relax his nerves for a moment, afraid that if he let go, she would disappear.

He didn't know why he had such intense feelings; perhaps it was because of the child he had lost.

She had endured this pain alone all along, and now that she was injured again, he felt extremely remorseful!

Finally, the car arrived at the hospital and came to a smooth stop at the entrance of the emergency room.

Fu Beichen, carrying Gu Xingnian, practically kicked open the car door and rushed inside.

"Doctor! Quick!"

His roar echoed in the empty emergency room.

Doctors and nurses immediately rushed over with a stretcher, asking, "What happened?"

"External injuries, a knife wound on her left arm, excessive blood loss, and she was also in a car accident before." Fu Beichen said concisely, carefully placing Gu Xingnian on the stretcher.

The doctor quickly examined her, lifted her coat, and saw the wounds. Even the experienced doctor frowned.

"The wound is deep, prepare for cleaning and suturing immediately!"

"The patient is losing blood. Check blood pressure and prepare for a blood transfusion!"

As instructions were issued one after another, the nurses immediately got to work.

Gu Xingnian was wheeled into the emergency room.

Fu Beichen stood guard at the door, watching it close and separate him from her.

He leaned against the cold wall, the scent of her blood still lingering on his body.

Time passed second by second, and every second felt like torture.

Inside, one could hear the sounds of doctors and nurses working busily, the clanging of instruments, and... Gu Xingnian's suppressed gasps.

After a while, a nurse hurried out.

"Sir, the patient is allergic to anesthesia. She said she doesn't want anesthesia and wants the sutures done directly."

Fu Beichen suddenly stood up straight. "What did you say?"

He rushed to the door of the treatment room and pushed it open.

The doctor was holding a needle holder, preparing to suture the longest gash on her arm.

Gu Xingnian leaned back in her chair, her face even paler than before, her forehead covered in a fine layer of cold sweat.

She looked at the doctor, her lips moved, and her voice was very soft but unusually clear, "Just stitch it up, I can bear it."

Fu Beichen's heart skipped a beat; she had an allergic reaction to the anesthetic.

He suddenly recalled Sheng Weiwei's words, "She fainted from the pain during her surgery."

His heart ached, and he stepped forward to ask, "Is there anything that can replace anesthesia and reduce...her pain?"

The doctor looked troubled. "Sir, she does have a history of allergies to anesthetics, and forcing her to use them carries a great risk."

Gu Xingnian closed her eyes briefly, and when she opened them again, they were calm, or rather, numb. "Doctor, let's begin."

The doctor said no more. "Okay, I'll try to be gentle. If you really can't stand it, just scream."

The wound was too long and too deep; the needle tip pierced the flesh.

Gu Xingnian's body tensed up suddenly. She lowered her head and bit her lower lip hard, causing blood to seep out.

His other hand was clenched into a fist, his nails almost digging into his palm, but he didn't utter a sound.
