On the day I ruined my rival and made her go bankrupt, Yu Wan set a trap to humiliate Tang Yue.
The next morning, she found herself being severely dealt with by him.
On the day my rival...
The sound was getting closer.
Until a group of police officers came down.
Surrounded by people, there was a handsome man. He was fair-skinned and handsome, wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He looked gentle and refined, with a touch of ascetic sexiness.
He was turning his head to the side, listening to what the tall, strong middle-aged man beside him was saying, a polite smile playing on his lips.
Just by standing there, her gentle and refined temperament easily wins people's favor.
Meng Shen nudged Yu Wan's arm with his elbow in surprise and said, "What's Master Yue doing here?"
Yu Wan raised her eyebrows slightly and paused, taken aback.
Tsk.
It really is Tang Yue!
I ran into him three times I was taken to the police station. What kind of bizarre and tragic fate is this?
"Shouldn't Master Yue be at the hospital? Why is he at the police station?" Meng Shen asked, puzzled.
Yu Wan chuckled casually: "...Probably because I'm stupid." Stupid enough to rush to the police station without a second thought after receiving the news.
Meng Shen stared at her face suspiciously for a while. These words seemed to convey disdain, but why did he hear helplessness and a faint, barely perceptible tenderness in them?
He rolled his eyes and said, "Perfect, we don't need to wait for Huang San to sign it, there's one right here."
Before Yu Wan could stop him, she suddenly heard a joyful cry from her left: "Brother-in-law!"
Ji Chenglin rushed forward, squeezed into the crowd, took Tang Yue's hand, and asked with bright eyes, "Brother-in-law, what are you doing here?"
The entire venue fell into dead silence at that call.
Meng Shen didn't dare to look at Yu Wan's face at all; he knew without looking that it must be extremely unpleasant.
He glanced at it discreetly.
Just as I expected.
Tang Yue lowered his eyes, gave Ji Chenglin a sharp look, and coldly withdrew his hand: "Young Master Ji has mistaken you for someone else. Your brother-in-law is the president of Gao's Group."
Ji Chenglin drooped his eyelids, looking aggrieved: "I don't like him, it's my sister who likes him. I don't care, I just want you to be my brother-in-law." Gao Lingchuan's eyes were too cold, like a venomous snake. Moreover, he had admired Tang Yue since he was a child, and when he found out that Tang Yue was going to be his brother-in-law, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep all night.
He relentlessly reached out to grab Tang Yue's arm, but Tang Yue stepped back two paces and avoided him.
"Young Master Ji is not young anymore. Think before you speak." Tang Yue's dark pupils flashed with a sharp light. His movement to dodge was too big, and he accidentally aggravated his wound.
That face, which was already pale, suddenly became even paler.
Yu Wan frowned slightly and lowered her crossed legs.
"Miss Ji and I are completely innocent, nothing happened between us." Tang Yue endured the pain and warned, "What if Young Master Ji's casual remark tarnishes my reputation?" If it reached Wanwan's ears, he would be even more unable to explain himself.
Meng Shen couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Hearing the laughter, many people turned around, including Tang Yue.
In an instant, those cold eyes suddenly seemed to be filled with starlight, shimmering and radiant.
Everyone felt as if they could hear the sound of ice and snow melting.
"Wanwan." Tang Yue's lips curved slightly as he walked past the crowd. He walked quickly, which inevitably strained his chest, and fine beads of sweat covered his forehead.
Yu Wan cursed "idiot" under her breath, got up and went forward to support his arm.
Tang Yue leaned closer to her, putting most of his weight on her and breathing slightly heavily. This time, he wasn't pretending to be weak; his body was genuinely struggling.
After resting for half a minute, he asked, "How did you end up here?"
Yu Wan raised her chin and said jokingly, "Oh, I just had a fight with your 'brother-in-law'."
Those three words were enunciated with extreme force, full of sarcasm.
Tang Yue's heart skipped a beat, and he said with a wry smile, "I'm innocent. You can't just believe any Tom, Dick, or Harry who comes up to me and tries to befriend me, can you?"
Just then, some random cat or dog walked up behind her and angrily shoved Yu Wan: "Let go! Do you think you can just touch my brother-in-law like that?"
Caught off guard by the push, Yu Wan staggered, lost her balance, and the two of them fell to the ground.
Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Tang Yue's eyes changed, and a burst of strength erupted from his body, pulling Yu Wan into his arms. With a twist of his toes, the two of them turned around.
"Bang!"
A loud thud.
His back slammed heavily onto the ground, and Yu Wan pressed down on his chest. Tang Yue almost couldn't catch his breath, biting his lower lip until he didn't let out a groan.
Cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and he trembled slightly as he said with difficulty, "Wanwan, you... get up first."
Yu Wan remembered that he was still injured, so she hurriedly got up and shouted at the police officers around her, "Is there a stretcher? His wound may have reopened."
Everyone was taken aback by Tang Yue's extremely pale face.
Yu Wan asked again.
"Yes, we have them," Captain Zhao instructed. "Xiao Zhao, quickly go to the storage room and get a stretcher." People might get injured during daily training, so these things are kept on hand.
He rushed forward anxiously, "Master Yue, are you alright?" This was someone the higher-ups had repeatedly instructed them to take good care of. Now that he had gotten into trouble at the bureau, they would be severely punished.
Tang Yue didn't reply, afraid that if he loosened his lips, a trembling sound would escape his lips.
“How could he be alright? Of course he’s alright.” Meng Shen raised his voice: “He was shot, and he ran away from the hospital before his wound had even healed. Now his injury has been aggravated.”
Zhao felt extremely guilty. Yes, Tang Yue was still recovering from his injury, but Zhao had insisted on keeping him at the station for a whole day. Now that something had happened, Zhao was partly responsible.
"The stretcher is here."
The group carefully lifted Tang Yue up.
Meanwhile, Yu Wan had already contacted Zhang Guofeng to prepare for the surgery.
A group of people walked towards the back door. There was a van in the courtyard that could hold a stretcher.
Faced with this sudden situation, Ji Chenglin was stunned and hurriedly followed, saying, "Brother-in-law..."
Upon hearing those two words, Meng Shen felt extremely disgusted. He stopped, turned around, and suddenly punched Ji Chenglin in the face, gritting his teeth as he said, "Shut up."
That punch was delivered with tremendous force. Ji Chenglin knelt on one knee and spat out a tooth.
Meng Shen straightened his sleeves, glanced at him, and his narrow eyes held a sharp edge: "If you don't learn your lesson next time, it won't be as simple as just a tooth."
Ji Chenglin was stunned by that look and couldn't react for a long time.
"stop!"
Ji Yun Chu shouted and rushed forward, angrily questioning, "Meng Shen, what are you doing? Causing trouble and fighting in the police station, even if your family is powerful and influential, you still have no respect for the law."
