Chapter 207 Saving Lu Junyan's Life

Jiang Ning was speechless at the WeChat message, feeling that it must have been really tough for Xiao Zhang to work alongside Lu Junyan.

"Once my company grows bigger and stronger, should we poach Xiao Zhang to be our assistant?"

Jiang Ning suddenly had this idea.

However, considering the salary Lu Junyan pays Xiao Zhang, she feels that she probably can't afford to pay him back at this stage.

Jiang Ning originally had no intention of attending the Lu Group's centennial celebration, even though Lu Junyan had informed her in advance.

This is why she absolutely refused to accept Lu's shares before the divorce.

Once you become a shareholder of the Lu family, you will inevitably have some connection with the Lu family.

Considering that Xiao Zhang shouldn't lose his job, Jiang Ning packed her things and went downstairs.

Downstairs, the imperial blue Bentley stood out like a starlight sapphire even under the deep night sky.

Jiang Ning was taken aback.

But she soon realized that it was more reasonable for Xiao Zhang to drive Lu Junyan's car.

After all, Xiao Zhang often drove Lu Junyan around.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Zhang, for making you come all this way."

Jiang Ning opened the passenger door, got in, and turned her head to see her "driver" sitting in the driver's seat—

"Lu Junyan?"

Jiang Ning was taken aback.

Lu Junyan glanced at her indifferently and said calmly, "Fasten your seatbelt."

"Ah...okay..."

Jiang Ning fastened his seatbelt while muttering to himself.

She clearly remembered that Lu Junyan had said in the WeChat message that he would send Xiao Zhang to pick her up. How did it turn out that Lu Junyan came by himself?

Tonight is the Lu Group's centennial celebration, and Lu Junyan isn't in charge of the celebration, but has personally come to be her driver?

This just doesn't make sense!

Moreover, although she is now a shareholder of the Lu Group, she does not hold a particularly important position in the Lu Group.

Jiang Ning couldn't understand why Lu Junyan had come to pick her up in person.

It can't just be that he simply wants to see her again, can it?

Jiang Ning shrugged and smiled.

The car hadn't gone far when suddenly someone rushed out from the side, but luckily Lu Junyan braked in time.

However, the other person suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Ning's eyes widened.

Is this... a staged accident?

Lu Junyan frowned and got out of the car at almost the same time as Jiang Ning.

The two approached the car, and Jiang Ning spoke first:

"Are you alright? I don't think we hit you..."

As Jiang Ning bent down to check the other party's injuries, the other party suddenly pulled out a knife from his pocket and stabbed Lu Junyan, who was standing in front of Jiang Ning, into the abdomen.

"Lu Junyan!"

Jiang Ning used all her strength to support Lu Junyan as he fell.

A large amount of blood flowed from the wound, staining Lu Junyan and Jiang Ning's clothes red.

Lu Junyan was sweating profusely from the pain, and his consciousness was becoming increasingly unclear.

"Lu Junyan, Lu Junyan, hang in there!"

Jiang Ning didn't care whether the murderer had escaped or not; the most important thing right now was to save Lu Junyan's life.

She pressed hard on the wound to stop Lu Junyan's bleeding, and then called 120.

The 120 emergency hotline told her that all the ambulances had been dispatched, and only one could arrive, but it would take about 15 minutes because of road construction and severe traffic congestion along the way.

Jiang Ning hung up the phone, shoved Lu Junyan into the car, and sped off in Lu Junyan's Bentley to the nearest hospital.

The main hall of the Lu Group.

Starting with the Lu family, other guests gradually realized that something was amiss.

Where did Lu Junyan go?

Tonight is the Lu Group's centennial celebration. Lu Junyan was here before, but he has been missing for a long time now.

"What happened to Junyan?"

Lu Lifeng asked Lu Yexiong, but Lu Yexiong was also completely confused.

They called Xiao Zhang over. Xiao Zhang didn't dare to hide it from Lu Lifeng and Lu Yexiong; he knew that Lu Junyan had gone to pick up Jiang Ning.

Lu Junyan initially ordered him to pick up Jiang Ning, but he wasn't sure why he suddenly changed his mind.

"You mean Junyan will personally go to pick up Jiang Ning?"

Lu Yexiong's tone changed.

This seemed incredibly unbelievable to him.

And it's not a good omen either.

However, for Lu Lifeng, it was quite the opposite.

Upon hearing that Lu Junyan had personally driven to pick up Jiang Ning, Lu Lifeng's eyes lit up, a rare occurrence for him.

"How long has Junyan been gone?"

"this……"

Xiao Zhang frowned, a worried expression on his face.

Judging by the time, Lu Junyan should have brought Jiang Ning back long ago.

"Something's wrong! Something's wrong, Chairman!"

Lu Lifeng's assistant rushed over in a panic, but after seeing Lu Lifeng's eyes, he immediately put on a brave face.

No matter what happens, even if the sky falls, the Lu family cannot panic in front of so many customers.

The assistant whispered something in Lu Lifeng's ear, and Lu Lifeng's expression changed drastically.

In the hospital, Lu Junyan finally woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Lifeng, Lu Yexiong, Yang Liyun, Yuan Pei, and Chu Qingxue surrounding him.

Everyone looked at him with a mixture of worry and surprise.

This time, his memory was mostly intact.

He remembered that he was driving to pick up Jiang Ning when he was hit by a staged accident, and the other party stabbed him as soon as he got up.

Lu Junyan blinked and spoke weakly:

"Where is Jiangning?"

"Why do you ask about that jinx right away? Would you be so badly injured if it weren't for her?"

Yang Liyun grumbled irritably from the side.

“It wasn’t Xiao Ning who stabbed Junyan, so if you’re going to blame someone, you should blame the murderer.”

Lu Lifeng retorted righteously and sternly.

"And if Xiao Ning hadn't acted decisively and driven Junyan to the hospital immediately, Junyan's condition might be very different now! The doctor said that it was fortunate that he was brought in in time, otherwise Junyan might have suffered a massive hemorrhage and faced life-threatening danger!"

With Lu Lifeng speaking up for Jiang Ning, Yang Liyun dared not vent her anger on Jiang Ning any longer.

Chu Qingxue stood silently by, acting as a background figure, not daring to say anything more.

This matter could have been a perfect opportunity to make a big deal out of it, but considering Lu Lifeng's protection of Jiang Ning, and the fact that her standing in Lu Junyan's eyes has been declining recently, it's best for her not to take the lead at this time.

Lu Junyan was silent for a moment, then spoke:

"Where is Jiangning?"

He asked the question again.

Lu Yexiong sighed first.

His expression was not good. He looked like this when he heard that Lu Junyan had personally gone to pick up Jiang Ning, and he looked even worse when he heard that Lu Junyan had taken a knife for Jiang Ning.

Although Lu Yexiong rarely agreed with Yang Liyun's words, he did agree with her statement that Jiangning was a jinx.

"Jiang Ning is in the corridor..."

Lu Junyan raised his eyelids.

The injured are already weak, so it is especially noticeable when their eyes light up.

In the corridor, Jiang Ning was as quiet as a sculpture.

It could also be because hospital corridors are inherently quiet.

Jiang Ning sat on the bench, his hands clasped together.

Next to it was Lu Junyan's hospital room.

This scene reminded Jiang Ning of her reunion with Lu Junyan years ago.

Just like now, she sat silently on the bench outside the ward, anxiously waiting for Lu Junyan to wake up.
