Chapter 70 Shen Lang, carrying Lu Li, followed the river...
Shen Lang carried Lu Li downstream, not daring to go ashore immediately. He was injured, his strength was greatly reduced, and he was also carrying the unconscious Lu Li.
At such a dangerous time.
The safest way was to escape alone, where his chances of survival would be greater, but at that moment, he still took Lu Li with him.
He was realistic enough that Lu Li couldn't die in front of him.
He couldn't withstand the Xie family's anger.
If he tried his best and Lu Li still died, then that was Lu Li's fate.
There was also a lingering, inexplicable emotion within him: he didn't want Lu Li to die.
Shen Lang didn't dare to go ashore immediately, fearing that this was not an accident and that there might be other tricks up their sleeves on the shore.
How could he die? He and his wife are so young, and they have so much money. They'll enjoy endless wealth and luxury for the rest of their lives.
Shen Lang floated in the water for dozens of meters. If he continued to float, he wouldn't be able to hold on any longer. Fortunately, Lu Li woke up. She was dazed for a moment, then suddenly remembered the car accident. In such a desperate situation, they were still alive.
Lu Li looked at Shen Lang, whose face was deathly pale and whose lips were bleeding. He looked terrible. Her heart clenched tightly. "Lang, don't scare me. How are you?"
Shen Lang: "You won't die, hurry up and leave." After saying that, he spat out another mouthful of blood.
Jumping out of the car at high speed is unbearable.
Lu Li could swim and was able to drag Shen Lang forward. Once the two of them were on shore, they didn't dare to linger and tried to flag down a taxi.
But with the two of them covered in blood and soaking wet like ghosts, no driver would dare to stop.
Lu Li finally forced a taxi driver to stop, which angered the driver so much that he cursed loudly. Shen Lang handed him two wet hundred-yuan bills: "Go to the nearest hospital."
The driver saw that one of the two was unable to stand upright, and the other was a weak woman who could barely walk. Even if they were bad guys, he figured he could still beat them.
And that was two hundred yuan; the driver let the two of them get in the car.
Along the way, Lu Li was so anxious that her eyes were filled with tears. She wished that Shen Lang's injuries could be on her body. "Where does it hurt?"
Shen Lang was in too much pain to speak and ignored her.
Lu Li: "Master, drive faster."
For the sake of the 200 yuan, the driver sped up and stopped in front of the People's Hospital.
Seeing that they didn't seem like bad people, the driver carried Shen Lang into the hospital and headed straight for the emergency room. Lu Li limped after them.
Shen Lang and Lu Li were rushed into the emergency room. Lu Li then asked the driver to call Xie Xuan and ask him to come to the hospital immediately.
Both her and Shen Lang's mobile phones and pagers got wet and were no longer usable.
The driver took the number to a public phone booth and made a call. Staring at the string of numbers in his hand, he knew the person must be rich or powerful.
The driver answered the phone, but before he could finish speaking, the other party hung up.
Is this coming or not?
The driver didn't leave either; he stayed outside the emergency room, worried that no one would help if the doctor called for help.
When Shen Lang arrived at the hospital, he was still very tense. The doctor already knew that the two of them had been injured in the car accident and performed ultrasounds on both of them. Lu Li's condition was okay, but she mainly suffered from external injuries, including a broken left leg.
Shen Lang looked a bit scary. Since he was vomiting blood, his internal organs must have been impacted. If his internal organs were ruptured or his ribs were embedded in them, it would be too dangerous.
After reviewing the ultrasound results, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief. Shen Lang was in good condition; there were no problems with his internal organs, and he just needed to rest for a while.
The rest were external injuries. He had multiple injuries, including a cut on his arm from broken plastic that required sterilization and stitches. The other wounds did not require stitches; sterilization and bandaging were sufficient.
Xie Xuan arrived at the hospital within twenty minutes and stood at the entrance of the emergency room.
The driver, seeing Xie Xuan in his military uniform, immediately regretted taking two hundred yuan from him. The man was a military family member; how could he have taken so much money! The other man's imposing presence made him hesitant to approach.
People of this era admire soldiers the most.
Shortly after, the hospital director, vice director, and other hospital leaders arrived. The head of surgery changed into surgical scrubs and entered the operating room to take over the suturing work.
When Xie Xuan saw Lu Li injured like this, with her leg broken and her exposed arms covered in small wounds, his heart broke. His wife had never suffered such injuries before.
Shen Lang said, "Godfather, the truck driver is after Godmother and wants to kill her. Go check the driver; he's at the intersection of Jiefang Road and Guangming Road."
He didn't know what the bridge was called.
He went to such lengths to save Lu Li, so he definitely has to accept them as godparents. He's not some aloof person.
With the Xie family as his backer, his future career will be a hundred times smoother.
Someone wants Lu Li dead? Xie Xuan's eyes turned fierce as he turned and left the emergency room. He first called his second brother and asked him to come and keep watch.
Shen Lang and Lu Li were wheeled into the ward.
Lu Li requested a hospital room.
The two were moved to the same VIP ward.
Lu Li looked at Shen Lang. This child had saved her, even in such a dangerous and urgent situation.
Shen Lang was speechless. Could you please stop looking at him? There's no flower growing on his face.
He really found Lu Li strange. If it weren't for her clear eyes and the loving look in her eyes when she looked at him, he would have suspected that Lu Li had ulterior motives.
Does he really consider him his adopted son-in-law? Does he treat Can Can like his own daughter?
He misses his wife and wants her to come and take care of him. The hospital room is very nice, and there's a telephone!
If he were truly half-dead, he definitely wouldn't let Jiang Can come over and worry about him. He's perfectly fine now, just in pain all over his body, and needs his wife's kisses and hugs.

When Xie Shuo received the call, they were looking at houses in a traditional courtyard house in Nanluoguxiang.
This courtyard house is very well preserved, with a beautiful, antique charm. There are climbing roses growing in the courtyard, covering the wall with fragrant and vibrant blossoms. Next to it is a grape trellis, laden with small green grapes; in another two months, they'll probably be ready to eat.
This was a gift from Can Can, and she liked it more and more as she looked at it, so she went to look at the roses.
Jiang Can felt inexplicably uneasy and crushed the roses in her hands. She couldn't help but call Shen Lang, but couldn't get through. Was the battery dead?
She felt an inexplicable panic and asked Xi Ling if she could contact Lu Li to ask if they had arrived at the airport yet, as they should be close by then.
Xi Ling tried calling Lu Li, but couldn't get through.
Just then, Xie Shuo answered the phone, "Sister-in-law and A Lang were in a car accident."
Everyone's expression changed.
Xie Shuo quickly replied, "He's fine, he's in the hospital right now."
The group left the courtyard in a hurry. Xie Shuo sped up, and Jiang Can's cell phone rang. She quickly answered the call.
"CanCan, I miss you."
The familiar voice rang in Jiang Can's ears, and Jiang Can's heart immediately calmed down.
Jiang Can: "Ah Lang, I'm on my way, I'll be there soon."
Upon arriving at the hospital, the four of them went straight to the ward.
When Jiang Can saw the person, his heart, which had been at ease, was raised again. Shen Lang was indeed alright, but his injuries were not light at all. He was so powerful that he had never been injured before, and his complexion had never been this bad.
She lifted the blanket, pulled back Shen Lang's hospital gown, checked his injuries, and asked with tears in her eyes, "How did you get so badly hurt?"
Xi Ling and Xie Yu also cried, one calling her sister-in-law and the other calling her aunt, and went to see Lu Li's injuries.
Xie Yu hugged Lu Li's leg, which was in a cast, and cried loudly, "Auntie, your leg, what happened to your leg?" Her body was covered with small wounds, which looked shocking.
Xie Shuo stood at the door of the ward without going in; it wasn't appropriate for a grown man like him to go in at this time.
Is the Xie family's bad luck really that bad? Has it already spread from Xiao Yu to other people?
Lu Li recounted what had happened: "That truck was going at 100 miles per hour and it was heading straight for the jeep."
In the instant the cars collided, her mind went blank, only remembering Shen Lang's words, "Step on the gas." She pressed the gas pedal to the floor, and Shen Lang turned the steering wheel, but they still couldn't avoid the truck.
Almost instantly, Shen Lang pulled her out of the driver's seat. The next moment, the truck crashed into them, the jeep shook violently, the car shattered, and she passed out.
Xie Yu was terrified. It was such a close call; she almost didn't get to see her aunt and brother-in-law again.
Xie Shuo was also deeply worried. How could they possibly escape such a deadly situation? He asked in a trembling voice, "How did you manage to escape?"
Shen Lang: "The collision slowed down the cars, but there was a bridge behind us, and we were squeezed onto the bridge piers, leaving us no way out. We had to jump out of the cars. Luckily, there was a river nearby, and the jeep was quite durable." Otherwise, the car would have been deformed when the truck hit it.
He reached out and hugged Jiang Can. "Can Can, I'm a little sleepy. I want to sleep for a while."
Jiang Can lowered her head and kissed his lips. "Sleep."
Lu Li was half asleep, and seeing Shen Lang fast asleep, she couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep too.
Xie Yu quickly reached out to touch Lu Li's nose; he was still breathing!
The doctor next to me said, "The medicine contains sleep-inducing ingredients, which can make you sleepy. Falling asleep can also help the wound heal." He then mentioned some dietary restrictions and what to eat more of in the next few days.
Shen Lang was sleeping soundly, his breathing was heavier than usual. Jiang Can stayed by his side, and only felt at ease seeing that Shen Lang was alright.
Xie Yu couldn't help but walk up to Jiang Can and hesitate, then asked, "Sister, do you think I'm a jinx?"
She looked at Jiang Can with teary eyes, appearing very vulnerable.
Jiang Can ruffled Xie Yu's hair and made her sit beside him. "Have you ever been unlucky in the past and dragged down the people around you?"
She knew that no matter how unlucky Xie Yu was, it was all her own misfortune.
Even when she was targeted by the meat grinder gang yesterday, it was she who was targeted, and only she was harmed.
Xie Yu shook his head.
Jiang Can: "Then what does this have to do with you? I don't know if this was an accident. If it wasn't an accident, it's either aimed at Ah Lang or at your godmother. If it's aimed at Ah Lang, that's fine, and your godmother suffers because of it, then it's Ah Lang and my fault. But if it's aimed at your godmother..." She paused, "then it's aimed at the Xie family. Your misfortunes might not be an accident. Someone wants you dead."
For no apparent reason, Xie Yu broke out in a cold sweat.
Jiang Can reached out and hugged her. "Don't be afraid, we'll find out the truth."
Xie Shuo gritted his teeth in hatred. If it wasn't all a coincidence, who could have such great power?
Xi Ling's mind worked even faster. If something happened to Xiao Yu, who would benefit? If she couldn't have children, she would have no kids. Who would inherit her company and money?
She is not close to her family and excludes them.
That's the Xie family; she'll leave everything to A-Yun and A-Xun.
She clenched her fists. No, she couldn't let her mind wander.
She has been married into the Xie family for over twenty years and knows them well enough. The Xie family members are all upright and honest people. The old master and old lady have plenty of money and the last thing they need is wealth.
If even Lu Li gets into trouble, who will benefit?
She couldn't understand this.
She felt a chill run through her body as she looked at her Xiaoyu, who was her life. She took a deep breath and walked out of the room.
She can't just wait to hear the results; she can't wait.
She needs to have someone investigate.
Xi Ling instructed her secretary to arrange for a private investigator as soon as possible.
