At that moment, the wound was indeed very painful, but with her by my side, I felt incredibly sweet inside.
Soon, one of Qiao Muting's friends returned: "Old Qiao, Pengfei and his gang arrested a few people and sent them to the police station. They asked me to come back and take you to the hospital."
Despite the pain from his wound, Qiao Muting held Qian Lai's hand tightly and never let go, then got into a black Santana with the other man.
