Chapter 380: New Life (1)
A shrill scream came from inside and outside the door.
In unison and in unison.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the knife.
There was a sudden burst of crying and shouting.
Li Aiying could no longer bear it, and broke through the cordon regardless of everything, stumbling into the house.
In front of her, Lin Zhou and Zhang Shuai also tried to rush into the house like crazy.
But Zhou Ruilian and Lin Zhenhua held Lin Zhou back, only Zhang Shuai struggled to shake off Li Jing's hand and rushed in regardless of everything.
Li Ke's eyes were shining. Although he was tied up and couldn't move, he stared at the knife falling and stabbing into Tian Xin's stomach.
But she was soon disappointed.
The knife did not fall, but the dagger fell to the ground with a "clang".
Liu Bo was so scared that his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground like a deflated ball.
The police immediately rushed over and controlled him.
Li Ke watched everything reverse in front of her in the blink of an eye. In her eyes, the flame that had just ignited turned into a pile of dead ashes in that instant, with no sign of rekindling.
Lost!
In the end, she lost.
She raised her head, feeling extremely unwilling.
Tian Xin let go of Liu Bo's hand, breathed a sigh of relief and looked outside the house.
His eyes swept over them one by one.
She saw Li Aiying slumped on the ground, wiping her tears, with Tian Fushun supporting her.
Lin Zhou broke free from Zhou Ruilian's hand and ran towards her, shouting something, but she didn't hear a word.
She felt her feet go weak and her body fell uncontrollably.
At the moment she was about to hit the ground, Zhang Shuai rushed over and caught her.
She heard his heart-wrenching cry: "Tian Xin——"
This time, he remembered her advice and did not call her "boss" in public.
"Silly boy, you've made it..."
She murmured something to her, and then her vision went dark and she fainted...
The sky is finally bright. Is that right?
————
Tian Xin woke up in the hospital.
At that time, only an hour had passed since they escaped.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Li Aiying's eyes were red and swollen from crying. Li Jing and Gao Cheng were standing beside her.
Seeing that she woke up, several people were immediately excited. The sad expressions on their faces disappeared, and they breathed a sigh of relief and put on knowing smiles.
"You finally woke up! We were so worried." Li Jing pulled her hand and yelled, "You don't know, when you fainted just now, Zhang Shuai almost..."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Li Aiying quickly interrupted her, slowly helped Tian Xin up, and said to her, "We have to go to the police station to take a statement later, so get some sleep first. There's no one else here, don't be afraid, Mom will always be here to watch over you."
After saying that, she glanced at Li Jing.
This girl looks quiet and gentle, but when she speaks she is like a firecracker, just like Zhang Shuai, who speaks without restraint.
Li Jing saw what Li Aiying meant and felt a little embarrassed, so she tried to explain: "Auntie, I'm just like that. I'm used to being straightforward. Please don't mind."
"It's nothing." Li Aiying smiled at her: "Xinxin just woke up, let her sleep for a while, you guys should go back and rest. You've been busy all day, and you're pregnant, don't get tired."
Gao Wen and Gao Cheng had the same idea, so they said goodbye to Tian Xin and left the hospital.
Before leaving, Li Aiying seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
Gao Cheng reassured her: "Don't worry, Auntie, we won't tell anyone about what happened today."
Li Jing understood what they meant, but did not leave with them. She insisted on staying to accompany Tian Xin.
She must be very sad about such a big thing happening.
Tian Xin was not as fragile as she imagined.
After she woke up, she didn't cry, didn't make a fuss, and didn't mention the kidnapping again.
She urged Li Aiying to go back and rest, and asked Li Jing to stay and chat with her.
Li Aiying refused to leave. She pretended to fall into her mother's arms and comforted her with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not that squeamish. I'm just hungry and want to eat the braised pork that Mom made."
This reason cannot be refused.
Li Aiying knew that she was trying to save herself, but she still went back obediently and cooked for her.
As soon as she left, Tian Xin's face darkened.
After this incident, she felt like something had drained out of her. From the inside out, she was completely empty. There was nothing left, only a shell.
It was the same loneliness she felt in her previous life when her relatives died and she was left alone.
Even though there are many people around me, I still feel lonely.
She buried her head in the quilt, hugged herself with her hands, and closed her eyes.
Li Jing was just about to chat with her, but seeing her like this, she didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Xin, don't be sad. Zhang Shuai... has already avenged you. He got back all the pain you endured with just one kick. I guess Liu Bo's life is ruined."
She whined and moaned...somewhat without bringing up the topic at hand.
Tian Xin really stuck her head out and asked, "What revenge? What did he do?"
Li Jing didn't dare to say anything now, and hesitantly avoided the question.
"Where has he been? Where is he?"
"I'm going to take a statement. At the Public Security Bureau."
"What kind of record is he taking?"
Tian Xin threw back the quilt and sat up. She grabbed Li Jing's arms and shook them, asking her anxiously, "What did he do? Why are we taking a statement?"
"he……"
"Speak up, what did he do?"
"Oh, he kicked Liu Bo and he started bleeding immediately. He was sent to the emergency room and probably hasn't woken up yet." Li Jing gave up and decided to stop pretending.
"Where is he now?"
Tian Xin continued to ask while putting on her shoes, "Does he want to die? He dared to commit a crime in front of the police. Does he want to die?"
"What a bastard, he's a real worry to me."
As she spoke, without waiting for Li Jing to answer, she had already run towards the ward door.
Li Jing quickly chased after him: "Hey, hey, hey, don't go, listen to what I have to say!"
But before she could run out of the door, Tian Xin came back and bumped into her head on.
She came back running, and two tall men behind her, one on each side, stopped her from closing the door like door gods, and at the same time wanted to hug her in their arms.
"Uh...I told you not to worry!"
Li Jing scratched her head in embarrassment, turned around and tried to escape.
She couldn't stand watching this kind of scene.
But Tian Xin dodged lightly and avoided the hands extended by the two men at the same time. Instead, they pulled her and went to the bed.
She didn't say another word, but took off her shoes and leaned on the bed to take a nap.
"What's going on? What did you just say?" she asked softly.
"I was just joking. You looked so scary just now. I was afraid you might become upset and do something to hurt yourself..."
"Won't."
She closed her eyes and interrupted Li Jing, saying, "I'm not depressed, and I won't hurt myself."
"Then you stabbed yourself with a knife just now..."
"Li Jing——"
The two men shouted at the same time, which scared Li Jing.
"What?" Li Jing was unhappy: "What are you yelling about?"
"Don't provoke her. Go back. I'll guard this."
This was said by Lin Zhou.
Zhang Shuai sneered, "Don't worry about it. I'll take care of the boss. You should go back and take care of your fiancée. After all... she's more important to you than the boss."
"What are you talking about?" Lin Zhou retorted, "I've already explained the whole story very clearly. You were there when the police questioned you just now, so you know this. Why are you being so sarcastic?"
"Sarcastic?"
Tian Xin smiled softly and opened her eyes. "Why is he so sarcastic? Lin Zhou, aren't you a little too self-righteous?" Her eyes were bright and clear, no different from before. But at this moment, the look she gave him was incredibly cold and indifferent, tinged with chill. A single glance pierced Lin Zhou deeply.
"Who are you to me? Do I need you to protect me?"
His eyes were cold and his words were sharp as a sword.
Lin Zhou was stunned, and quickly stepped forward, stretched out his hands and hugged her in his arms, not caring about the people in front of him or Tian Xin's struggle, and wanted to kiss her the next second.
"Listen to me, it's not what you think. I could have taken you out. Don't look at me like that, don't say that."
He almost cried.
But such behavior undoubtedly deepened Tian Xin's stimulation at this moment.
She pushed Lin Zhou away, blocked Zhang Shuai's hand that was stretched out before her, and slapped Lin Zhou in the face.
"We are even now." She looked at his empty hand and said this with a determination she had never had before on her face.
"I will hand over all your projects with me, whether it's the website or the resort, within a month. All your funds will be withdrawn according to market-regulated prices. From now on, you go your way, I go mine. We will no longer have any relationship. Please respect yourself."
After saying this, she glanced at him with a look of disgust she had never seen before. Then, she turned her head away, closed her eyes and said softly, "Li Jing, let him go. I don't want to see him again."
