Chapter 88 He was angry, very angry
Zhou Chaolu was startled and her body trembled violently for a moment.
A sharp pain came from the back of Yan Hao's head. Yan Hao's pupils suddenly shrank and he turned his head stiffly to look behind him.
Shi Huai was holding a brick in her hand, trembling as she raised it. Seeing Yan Hao still staring at her blankly, she added another word!
With another "bang" sound, Yan Hao fell straight to the ground.
Shi Huai's strength seemed to be drained away, and the brick slipped from her limp hands. Zhou Chaolu burst into tears and quickly lifted the limp Shi Huai into her arms.
Shi Huai was shaking violently, and before her breathing had even calmed down, she asked Zhou Zhaolu, "Are you okay?"
Zhou Zhaolu shook her head and sobbed, "No, it's okay. Sister-in-law, you're okay. Wuuuuuu——"
Shi Huai was breathing heavily. She tried her best to calm herself down and comforted Zhou Zhaolu softly, "I'm fine, don't cry."
The bodyguards didn't expect that Shi Huai found another small door and sneaked onto the rooftop. If she hadn't stepped forward and taken advantage of the opportunity, knocking Yan Hao to the ground with a brick, the eldest lady would probably have been controlled by this bad guy.
The two men supported each other and prepared to leave the rooftop, leaving the bodyguard here to cover their retreat.
Just as the bodyguards arrived in front of Yan Hao and were about to carry him away, Yan Hao suddenly opened his eyes and abruptly got up from the ground. With some strength he didn't know where he got it from, he pulled out a dagger and rushed towards Shi Huai.
"Bitch! How dare you hurt me!"
Shi Huai's pupils shrank, his brain went blank, and he stood there in a daze.
The repeated shocks caused a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, and her legs and feet felt like they were stepping on empty clouds, unable to move.
Zhou Chaolu subconsciously stepped forward to stand in front of Shi Huai.
The pain didn't come as expected.
Zhou Jibai suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and threw Yan Hao to the ground with a neat shoulder throw!
Zhou Jibai kicked the dagger out of Yan Hao's hand and punched Yan Hao's face with his fist. It was as if the person he pinned to the ground was not a living person, but a pile of rotten meat.
The sound of breaking bones, pounding flesh and blood, and the gloomy and brutal rage fell into everyone's ears.
The cold wind blew and roared, as if it was about to tear a huge hole in the dark night sky at any time.
Yan Hao's pupils were gradually losing focus, and his fists, which had been clenched in pain, gradually loosened and finally dropped.
After confirming that Yan Hao was completely unconscious, Zhou Jibai slowly stood up, the sinister look on his face not fading at all.
Zhou Jibai ordered in a deep voice: "Take him away."
"Yes!" the bodyguards responded.
Then, Zhou Jibai turned around and cast a cold gaze on Zhou Chaolu.
He raised his hand and slapped Zhou Chaolu hard.
The crisp sound of slaps echoed in the silent rooftop. Zhou Zhaolu covered her swollen cheeks, lowered her head and dared not utter a word.
Shi Huai didn't expect that Zhou Jibai would suddenly slap Zhou Chaolu in the face. The slap was so loud that he must have been furious.
She wanted to speak, but when she saw Zhou Jibai's gloomy and cold face from a distance, she lowered her eyes and stopped protecting him.
"Did you know that your sister-in-law is still pregnant?" Zhou Jibai glanced at Shi Huai, whose face was completely pale.
Zhou Zhaolu knew that she deserved the slap. She sniffed and choked, "I'm sorry..."
"Do you want to go back to Changjing by yourself, or should I ask my elder brother to take you?" Zhou Jibai didn't want to say any more nonsense with his stupid sister.
Zhou Chaolu held back her tears and remained silent.
Seeing Zhou Chaolu remained silent, Zhou Jibai said coldly, "Mom, Dad, and Big Brother are already on their way."
After saying that, Zhou Jibai didn't even give her a spare glance and came in front of Shi Huai.
Without giving Shi Huai any response, he just picked her up and carried her sideways.
Shi Huai bit her lip, trying to calm Zhou Jibai's anger at the moment: "I'm fine."
Zhou Jibai didn't say anything, his face looked cold and creepy.
It was at the moment when Zhou Jibai turned around and left with Shi Huai in his arms that Zhou Chaolu saw that Zhou Jibai's shoulder and neck were cut by the blade, and blood was oozing out continuously.
The driver drove to the hospital.
Zhou Jibai took Shi Huai to do a bunch of examinations.
Shi Huai had a miscarriage due to excessive fright, and the doctor recommended that she be hospitalized for a few days for observation.
Being settled in the high-end care VIP ward, Shi Huai was lying on the bed receiving an IV drip, with Zhou Jibai by his side.
The two did not say a word during this period.
Shi Huai would look up and glance at him quietly from time to time.
Zhou Jibai's expression remained stern, his brows were furrowed and he showed no intention of speaking.
In the huge VIP ward, the atmosphere was silent and cold. Even though the room was always warm, Shi Huai still felt cold all over, as if a layer of frost had condensed inside and outside the ward.
Zhou Jibai peeled apple pieces for Shi Huai.
Shi Huai took it and ate it in small bites.
She wanted to find a topic to talk to Zhou Jibai, but every time she was about to speak, Zhou Jibai turned his face away and showed no intention of listening.
"Zhou Jibai..."
"sleep."
The bed in the ward was a luxurious double bed, large enough for two people. But Zhou Jibai chose not to sleep in the same bed with her, but sat by her bedside to watch over her.
Shi Huai pursed his lips and lay on the bed.
She stretched out her small, white hand, trying to hold Zhou Jibai's, but Zhou Jibai dodged her.
Zhou Jibai stood up, turned his back to her, and walked out of the ward without saying a word.
After a night of ups and downs, Shi Huai was exhausted. She stroked her slightly undulating belly and sniffed, "I'm sorry, baby, I scared you."
…
The next day, when Shi Huai opened his eyes, he saw Zhou Jibai already washed, dressed and sitting beside his bed.
Seeing that she woke up, he didn't say anything and asked someone to serve breakfast.
After Shi Huai slowly finished the porridge in his bowl, he said calmly, "Mom and Dad, my brother and his wife will be here soon."
"Um."
"Where's Zhou Chaolu?"
"Go back to Changjing, grandma will watch over you." Zhou Jibai's words were brief, but Shi Huai could still read the anger in his attitude.
Shi Huai lowered his eyes and let out a long breath.
Fortunately, Zhou Chaolu's life was saved.
