Chapter Seventy-Three: Life or Death on the Brink



Lu Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief when he received a call from Xie Huanyu, but he didn't expect that she would immediately start questioning him with resentment upon seeing him.

"Why did you seek out Xu Yanshu alone and ask us when we're getting a divorce? Lu Huai, do you know what you're doing?"

Before this, she had always trusted him unconditionally. Who would have thought that he would repeatedly try to outsmart her and even conspire with others to scheme against her?

Xie Huanyu, having seen through the situation but not saying anything, had already decided to slowly distance herself from the Lu family, but she never expected that this person would actually approach Xu Yanshu again.

She originally intended to keep this matter in mind, but she was also worried that this person would go and talk nonsense in front of Xu Yanshu again, so she decided to meet with the person to clarify things.

Lu Huai frowned in confusion. When did he ask that...? He quickly realized that it was Xu Yanshu who was deliberately sowing discord between them.

Looking at the woman's furious expression, he felt very uncomfortable. This woman was now starting to glare at him!

"Do you think I would ask that? Huanyu, we've known each other for so many years, how can you not even trust me this much?"

"The person you should seriously examine is Xu Yanshu. Do you really think he wants a divorce?"

Xie Huanyu was initially somewhat reassured, but upon hearing the rest, she hesitated again. She glanced at the man with suspicion.

What do you mean by that?

Having said all that, Lu Huai bluntly stated, "Xu Yanshu never intended to really get a divorce; he was just trying to get your attention this way!"

He felt from the beginning that Xu Yanshu couldn't possibly want to divorce Xie Huanyu. As he watched the woman gradually distance herself from him, he became even more certain of his guess.

Before this, he had thought Xu Yanshu was a kind and honest man, but he never expected that Xu Yanshu was so cunning.

How come I never noticed he was this kind of person before?

Xie Huanyu's expression immediately turned cold, and she looked at the person standing in front of her with an ambiguous expression.

At first, she thought Xu Yanshu was playing hard to get. Then, when she kept refusing to agree, he hired a lawyer to prepare for a lawsuit. More importantly, his attitude towards her was obviously different from before.

Regardless of the circumstances, this is a matter between her and Xu Yanshu, and it's not up to an outsider like him to make a judgment.

“I know Xu Yanshu better than you do, and in the end we are just ordinary friends. Please don’t interfere in our marital affairs anymore.”

After saying that, Xie Huanyu resolutely turned and left.

Lu Huai was caught off guard. He thought the woman would agree with his guess. After regaining his senses, he quickly took a step and chased after her, while giving a wink to the person who was squatting in the corner.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to guess that Xie Huanyu might not really forgive him for a while. Otherwise, if he had let her leave like that, it would have been very difficult to see her again in the future.

"Huanyu, wait for me, I can accept it!" Lu Huai said urgently, making a move to grab her hand.

Unexpectedly, the other party continued to pursue them relentlessly. Xie Huanyu frowned impatiently and subconsciously quickened his pace.

But when he turned around, he saw a large truck coming towards her again.

Seeing that she couldn't dodge in time, at the critical moment, Lu Huai disregarded everything and stepped forward to push her aside.

Xie Huanyu staggered forward several steps before barely managing to stand. After standing there stunned for a while, she realized what was happening. She subconsciously turned her head and saw Lu Huai lying on the ground with his face covered in blood.

She rushed forward and hugged Ah Huai tightly, her voice trembling with emotion and a hint of tears in her voice.

"Ah Huai, what's wrong with you? Are you crazy? Who told you to rush over like that?"

If that car had moved even half a meter further, he might have been killed on the spot.

Lu Huai reached out and carefully wiped away the woman's tears, speaking weakly, "Yu Bao, I said I would protect you forever, and I did!"

You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub; judging from this woman's expression, I guess I made the right bet.

Xie Huanyu nodded quickly. This promise was made by A Huai when they first met, and she didn't expect him to still remember it.

"Stop talking, I'll take you to the hospital right away!"

...

Hospital

"The patient is in stable condition, but has a mild concussion and multiple fractures throughout the body. Further observation in the hospital is required to determine the exact situation!"

Only after confirming that Ah Huai was not in mortal danger did Xie Huanyu finally breathe a sigh of relief, and only then did she belatedly realize that her back was covered in a layer of cold sweat.

Recalling the terrifying moment just now, she still felt a lingering fear, and she never expected that Lu Huai would rush to her side without hesitation in such a crisis.

Turning to look at Lu Huai, whose body was almost entirely wrapped in bandages, Xie Huanyu's gaze inadvertently became complicated.

I thought he was only scheming against me, but now it seems that's not the case... Maybe I just misunderstood him?

Lu Guangxiong hurriedly entered the ward and saw his son wrapped up like a mummy. His gaze lingered for a moment.

Wasn't it just supposed to be acting? How did it turn out like this...?

"Uncle Lu, don't worry, A-Huai is alright!" Xie Huanyu stepped forward cautiously and said, "I'm sorry, A-Huai got injured while saving me!"

Suppressing his doubts, Lu Guangxiong quickly got into character, sighed softly, and then slowly said, "Huanyu, you mustn't say that. Of course, Ahuai wouldn't just stand by and watch you have an accident in front of him."

"He's a big, tough man, a little injury won't hurt him, as long as you're alright!"

Xie Huanyu had prepared herself to face the wrath, but she hadn't expected to hear such words, and her eyes involuntarily welled up with tears.

"It's okay, don't cry, otherwise Ah Huai will be heartbroken when he wakes up and sees you!" Lu Guangxiong reached out and patted Xie Huanyu's shoulder to comfort her.

I thought it was a perfect plan, but she discovered the flaw at the last minute.

Judging from Xie Huanyu's grateful expression now, this matter may be considered closed.

Xie Huanyu looked up at the person in front of her with gratitude, and the resentment in her heart dissipated somewhat.

"Huanyu, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. I'll take care of things here..."

Xie Huanyu shook her head and refused, "Nothing is more important than A-Huai right now. I won't leave until he wakes up."
