"How is she?
Tong Junhui's heart sank, but he still looked at Cheng Bei with hope. However, he only saw that Cheng Bei had a gloomy expression and remained silent. So he knew the final result in his heart.
"Damn it, if only I had known, if only I had gone to check the situation sooner—" The usually refined and composed man finally broke down, "It was so close!"
Although she didn't know what was going on or what had happened between these people, Liu Rulan immediately called out to Tong Junhui and pressed his shoulder, saying, "Tong Junhui, calm down!"
Tong Junhui glanced at Liu Rulan subconsciously, his expression somewhat embarrassed, but he eventually calmed down, lowered his head, and remained silent.
Xiao He was dumbfounded.
Can Sister Liu calm people down with just one sentence?
No wonder he's a former manager; his influence still lingers.
How is he?
Cheng Bei walked over, placing his hopes on Cheng Hongwen.
Among those present, Xu Youyou's death was gruesome; what happened back then is probably only known to Cheng Hongwen now.
Xiao He didn't know how to answer, so he could only say, "What do you think?"
Then he continued to press on Cheng Hongwen's neck, trying to prevent him from bleeding out while also being careful not to suffocate him completely.
Cheng Bei looked at Xiao He suspiciously, then walked over to Cheng Hongwen, squatted down, and reached out to feel his pulse.
Although Xiao He, Shu Han, and others had been pressing on the wound to reduce blood loss, by the time Cheng Bei raised his hand to check the pulse, Cheng Hongwen's vital signs were almost gone.
If even this guy is dead, who will know the whereabouts of the ledger that Xu Youyou hid?
Cheng Bei felt a slight unease.
If they close in now, without that ledger, they probably won't be able to catch the old man from the Chen family... If they can't completely eradicate this cancerous tumor of the Chen family in Hong Kong, their long-planned scheme will all be in vain...
Seeing Cheng Bei's serious and anxious expression, Xiao He also pursed his lips, looked down at the guy who was about to die, and a few pangs of heartache flashed in his eyes.
Just as Cheng Bei was about to withdraw his hand in disappointment, he discovered that Cheng Hongwen's pulse had started beating strongly again!
Although still very weak, it's much better than that hopeless beating frequency from before!
This is undoubtedly good news!
Suddenly, hope rekindled in Cheng Bei's heart!
"Quick, the ambulance is here! Get him to the hospital!"
...
Ten minutes ago.
Hotel room door.
Cheng Hongwen knocked on Xu Youyou's room door.
"who?"
"It's me."
The hotel room door was slightly ajar, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes and a haggard, thin face.
The words of accusation that Cheng Hongwen originally wanted to say were instantly stuck in his throat.
"What happened to you?" / "Why are you here?"
The two voices rang out at the same time.
Seeing her old acquaintance, Xu Youyou was embarrassed and angry. She tried to slam the door shut, but Cheng Hongwen grabbed the doorknob and said coldly, "So much has happened during this time, don't you have anything to explain to me?"
Xu Youyou's gaze shifted, and she slammed the door shut with a bit more force: "I've already terminated the contract, so I have nothing to say to you."
Since the incident involving Ke Mingen was exposed and Xu Youyou was facing a prison crisis, her agency immediately severed ties with her, unilaterally terminating her contract and kicking her out of the company.
All the celebrities who were close to Xu Youyou have cut ties with her. Even Xu Youyou's ex-boyfriend, a retired actor surnamed Su, has rekindled his relationship, clarifying that they had already broken up, as if he is afraid of having any connection with Xu Youyou.
Surprisingly, the only person who didn't give up on Xu Youyou at that time was her former agent, Cheng Hongwen.
