Chapter 100 I Got You!

Turning off the showerhead, water slid down Zhou Ran's body.

It takes away a trace of red, and gradually the red color increases.

Zhou Ran looked down at her shoulder, which had a bloody scratch.

The bullet pierced through Judun's shoulder, grazing the upper edge and leaving a wound.

"It really hurts! My body is so weak!"

Zhou Ran complained and continued taking a shower.

It's not that he hasn't exercised, but this body seems to have its own growth trajectory.

No matter how much you exercise, how much you control your diet, or how well you train, it doesn't matter.

You can't see any muscle at all; it's still all soft and flabby.

This kind of born waste cannot be saved even by a god.

Thanks to this body, it has enough flexibility and agility.

When you can't directly confront the enemy, you can still dodge in time, so you're not truly powerless to fight back.

Zhou Ran was taking a shower while thinking about things.

The bathroom door, which had been closed without being noticed, was secretly opened a crack, and transparent water vapor drifted in through the crack, instantly merging into the bathroom's steam.

After taking a shower, Zhou Ran dried her hair and walked outside, feeling that the shower gel smelled quite nice today.

There's a faint tea aroma that lingers around my nose for a long time.

Are you alright?

Xia Chenggan rushed over upon hearing the news and waited anxiously outside for Zhou Ran to come out of the bathroom.

Just as he was getting impatient, Zhou Ran came out.

His hair was soaking wet, making him look like a drowned rat.

Pitiful, yet somewhat adorable.

"Are you injured?"

Didn't the doctor say Zhou Ran wasn't injured? The glaring wound on his shoulder was a jarring reminder of his condition.

"Why wash it with water if it's injured? What if it gets infected? Where's the doctor? Have him come and take a look."

Xia Chenggan's face darkened.

"It's nothing, just a minor scratch."

Zhou Ran felt that Xia Chenggan's reaction was a bit too much.

"Has the person been caught?"

"No, the man only fired that one shot and then ran away. Our men went over but found nothing, only that he was a short man."

These conclusions were reached after searching the surrounding area, investigating surveillance footage, and other comprehensive methods.

"What audacity! Judging from their behavior, they're probably the same group as last time."

To be so bold in the country, it seems the people from last time weren't completely wiped out.

“These people are extremely slippery; they'll drop everything once they find even the slightest clue, making them very difficult to catch.”

Xia Chenggan said angrily.

He wished he could drag the person out, tear them apart, and skin them alive to vent his hatred.

There will be an opportunity.

"It's not safe here anymore. Come with me to another room!"

Zhou Ran nodded, agreeing to the suggestion.

They moved to another room, which was more private, and the curtains had already been drawn.

The doctor came again, examined Zhou Ran's shoulder, and applied medicine to it.

"It hurts a little, Young Master Zhou, please bear with it for a moment."

Zhou Ran nodded.

He met the doctor's brown eyes.

These eyes are a bit lighter than average, leaning more towards brown.

If you look closely, you won't notice that slight difference.

"Doctor, are you mixed race?"

"Yes, it's mixed-race, commonly known as a 'skewer'!"

"Haha, doctor, you're so funny!"

Zhou Ran couldn't help but laugh. Who would call themselves a crossbred, a crossbred like a dog?

“My mother and father are both Chinese, my maternal grandmother is from Y country, and my paternal grandmother is from U country. My maternal grandfather and paternal grandfather are both Chinese. They all say I am a cross between three countries.”

"Then you should fight back hard."

The doctor smiled, his eyes crinkling, and nodded.

"Yeah, I punched that guy hard, and now he avoids me whenever he sees me."

"Well done."

Zhou Ran gave it the highest praise, and then couldn't help but gasp.

This thing is on my wound, it really hurts!

"Just bear with it, it'll be over soon. This medicine will hurt a little, but it's incredibly effective."

The doctor softened his movements, but his hands didn't stop; he carefully applied the ointment to every corner.

Then cover it with gauze and apply adhesive tape.

"The bandage can be removed tomorrow, and the external injury will heal quickly."

"Thank you, doctor."

"You're welcome!"

The doctor packed up his medicine kit, his eyes crinkling with laughter.

"Ahem, you guys are being a bit too oblivious to others. I'm still here."

Xia Chenggan sat to one side with his arms crossed, his face grim.

"Jealous! That's really rare!"

The doctor seemed genuinely shocked; his eyes widened.

Seeing how familiar the two seemed, Zhou Ran instantly understood.

"The CEO's doctor friend?"

“No!” the doctor shook his index finger. “I am his unjustly employed worker.”

Which friend is on call 24/7, even being called in to work overtime while attending a wedding?

"Haha, as expected, every domineering CEO is essentially a capricious capitalist."

The doctor laughed and gave a thumbs-up, acknowledging Zhou Ran's words.

Xia Chenggan looked helplessly at the two laughing heartily.

"I'm still here."

"We said it to your face; we would never do such a thing as backstabbing."

The doctor added.

"We would never do something like talking badly about someone behind their back."

Zhou Ran and the doctor silently reached out their hands and decisively gave each other a high five.

Xia Chenggan sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

"Your wound doesn't hurt anymore."

"It doesn't hurt anymore!"

Zhou Ran pointed to her bandaged shoulder.

"It's bandaged up now, it doesn't hurt anymore."

"Then rest. I'll go and get busy. I'll have a servant call you when it's time for the banquet."

Xia Chenggan told Zhou Ran to go and rest.

Zhou Ran looked at Xia Chenggan with longing eyes.

"Can you stay with me for a while?"

"Okay, I'll stay with you for a while."

Xia Chenggan nodded in agreement and covered Zhou Ran with the blanket.

"Ouch, this is such a display of affection! I'm leaving now, you two keep going!"

After finishing her speech, the doctor grabbed her bag and quickly ran away, not wanting to witness the public display of affection, which is very unfriendly to single people.

Xia Chenggan didn't give him a second glance, but held Zhou Ran's hand with tenderness in his eyes.

"Okay, I'm with you, close your eyes!"

"Uh-huh."

Zhou Ran nodded before reluctantly closing her eyes.

Even with his eyes closed, he could feel Xia Chenggan's focused and earnest gaze on him.

Xia Chenggan stared at Zhou Ran's face and couldn't help but reach out to describe the lines of her eyebrows and eyes in the air.

Why is it that with the same face, a different soul makes it seem like a completely different person?

He didn't lower his hand, worried about disturbing Zhou Ran's rest.

Once Zhou Ran's breathing had stabilized, Xia Chenggan stood up from the bedside.

After straightening his clothes, Xia Chenggan was still the same CEO Xia.

He walked out the door and gave instructions to Qiu Jing, who was standing at the door.

"Keep an eye on him; no one is allowed to come near this room."

"yes."

Qiu Jing readily agreed; this was her task.

Xia Chenggan walked to a room on the side, where his subordinates who had gone to investigate were already waiting.

Xia Chenggan cut to the chase, "You found out?"

"Yes, we found it. We investigated all the surveillance footage. We found a problem with a drink, and that led us to the kitchen."

After sifting through the kitchen staff, they found a kitchen helper.

According to his confession, this batch of juice all came from one supplier.

We carefully inspected the welcoming fruit.

It's a problem with a type of citrus fruit; it contains residual lysergic acid diamine.

Small doses are not addictive and can increase a person's level of excitement.

There were no other harmful ingredients, and the supplier said they didn't know where they came from.

The subordinate continued.

“We used tactics, we didn’t lie. He’s not a scapegoat, he was prepared all along. We will continue to take action.”

"Hmm, what's the situation with the sniper on the other side?"

"This was investigated by me and Miss Qiu's people together, and the result was the same. We confirmed that the most suspicious person was a man of medium build, but he has already run away."

We expanded our search and are waiting for results, but the situation is not optimistic.

"These guns aren't something you can just get your hands on in China."

"We've already checked, and it's the most common model on the black market. It seems the other party was prepared."

Xia Chenggan frowned. He had been encountering this situation frequently lately. Every time he followed the clues, the trail would go cold for various reasons.

"Where are the woman and the boy?"

"That woman is the second daughter-in-law of the Guo family, and the boy is her cousin."

Their identities were checked and found to be correct, so the boy was tortured.

He confessed directly that he played cards with people online.

I've been scammed and now I owe a lot of money.

The other party claimed to have a grudge against the lady and challenged him to stab her in the face.

Once they're disfigured, their gambling debts will be settled.

He was forced into a corner, so he sneaked in.

We checked online, and it's been deactivated; we can't find any information about it.

Xia Chenggan had already guessed this outcome.

He hated this feeling, like a swarm of flies lurking in the shadows, constantly causing him trouble through various means.

But every time you sense someone's presence, you run out to grab them.

All that was left was a pile of garbage, and the swarm of flies had long since scattered and hidden in other dark corners.

Imagine having countless eyes watching you, ready to bite you at any moment.

Xia Chenggan felt nauseous.

"Alright, keep investigating. I don't believe they didn't leave any clues."

"yes."

After finishing up here, Xia Chenggan went downstairs for a walk.

The commotion had disturbed some of the guests, and he needed to step in and calm them down.

As soon as Xia Chenggan came out, people gathered around to congratulate him.

Xia Chenggan nodded and smiled as he chatted with them.

It's nothing more than personal relationships or business dealings.

Time flies, and before we knew it, it was evening.

The servant knocked on the door at just the right moment, and Zhou Ran got out of bed.

He allowed his servants to dress him up, and the makeup artist to apply makeup to his face.

"There's a cocktail party tonight. The young master said you can't hold your liquor, so please don't drink. We've already arranged to replace it with juice for you."

"Okay, I understand."

After changing her clothes, Zhou Ran followed the servant out the door.

Qiu Jing emerged from the door where she was hiding, looked at Zhou Ran's back, and silently followed.

Xia Chenggan came upstairs rubbing his temples.

"You're awake?"

"Hmm, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xia Chenggan lowered his hand.

"It's alright, I just drank a bit too much. There's plenty of alcohol in this kind of setting, so you can just have some soft drinks later."

"good."

Zhou Ran nodded obediently.

Zhou Ran reached out and took Xia Chenggan's arm, smiling and nodding at him.

"let's go!"

"Yes, Mrs. Xia!"

Xia Chenggan curled his lips into a smile.

"I'll help you a bit. If you feel uncomfortable, call the doctor to come and take a look. Don't try to tough it out."

"knew."

Xia Chenggan reached out and rubbed his head.

Zhou Ran blinked and smiled as she took his arm. Author's Note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for your support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
