Chapter 76
For the whole day, Gu Cunxi felt indescribably uneasy. She felt a little uneasy and panicked.
It was already dark. She checked her phone and found that there had been no news from Pei Yin since she returned home. The worry in her heart grew a little bit with each passing minute. She thought for a moment, picked up her phone and called Pei Yin.
…
After Chen Feng left, Pei Yin's body slowly slid down, and she collapsed on the ground. She felt a dull pain everywhere in her body, and the blood on her forehead gradually solidified. She raised her hand to touch her cheek, but the moment she touched it, she retracted her hand. It was so hot that it hurt. She wanted to see Gu Cunxi...
But...how could I have the nerve to stand in front of her? She's so outstanding...
The phone in his hand made a sound, and Pei Yin stared at the lit screen with numb eyes.
It's Cunxi calling...
In an instant, her heartbeat was like thunder, and a hint of life appeared in her eyes. Her fingers fell on the answer button, trembling violently, but she hesitated to press it...
All her hopes, courage, and perseverance were shattered in that bedroom... along with her love for Gu Cunxi...
I... am no longer worthy of you!
"Cunxi...I'm sorry!" she murmured.
The ringtone rang over and over again in the living room. She put down the phone in despair and let it ring...
She ignored it, didn't even glance at it, and put the phone aside. The buzzing sound of the phone hitting the floor was like a sound hitting her heart.
…
Hearing the busy tone coming from her phone, Gu Cunxi was in a state of panic. She called again and again, but no one picked up...
That uneasy feeling came over her again. She couldn't wait any longer and quickly ran to the car and drove home. She remembered that before leaving, Pei Yin told her that if she was busy too late, she would go home and wait for him...
Maybe... she had gone back and didn't answer the phone, maybe... she fell asleep. She comforted herself in her heart, her nerves tensed along the way.
After arriving at Mingjiang Garden, she parked the car in the underground garage, quickly turned off the engine, and got out of the car...
The surroundings were horribly quiet, so quiet that the only sound she could hear was her own pounding heartbeat and the thud of her shoes hitting the ground. She didn't know why she had a bad feeling in her heart, and it was particularly strong! Perhaps because she was worried about Pei Yin, thinking about this, she quickened her pace and walked out...
The garage is a bit dark and empty. There are not many people living here, and there are even fewer people in the underground garage. There are even few cars.
As she walked, she took out her phone and called Pei Yin, but there was still the same busy tone, no one answered...
While she was on the phone... there was a chaotic sound of footsteps behind her.
“!!”
She turned around to look for the sound, but a shadow flashed before her eyes, and then... a rumbling, dizzy feeling came from her head.
"Well…"
His body staggered backwards, someone was approaching!
She raised her hand to support her forehead, and a sticky, warm liquid slid down from her hand, carrying the smell of blood, flowing through her eyes, blurring her vision.
There were three strange men standing in front of her. She shook her head vigorously and blinked before she could see the people in front of her clearly...
Regardless of the pain in her head, she struggled to get up from the ground, blood dripping down her cheeks. The person in front of her was pressing forward, with no intention of letting her go.
"Who are you?" Gu Cunxi asked in a hoarse voice, the sound seemed to be squeezed out from his throat.
“…”
The three men did not respond, but kept pressing forward, holding something like a baseball bat in their hands.
Seeing the person in front of him getting closer and closer, Gu Cunxi instinctively took a few steps back. The pain in his head made his consciousness blur.
She barely dodged the first attack, and when the man raised his hand, she saw the blue tattoo on his right forearm.
"Ugh..." Then a sharp pain came from my chest!
The man swung the baton with such force that she couldn't help but stumble back a few steps and fall to the ground. If she were alone, she might be able to cope, but facing three burly men, she was powerless to fight back...
Her vision was becoming increasingly blurry... She felt as if her ribs had been broken by the blow just now. The slightest movement of her body would intensify the pain, and even speaking was becoming difficult.
She half-propped herself up, pointed at the man in front of her and asked: Who...who are you?
"Don't cause any deaths, just cut off her right hand!"
“!!”
The sound of a car door closing came from behind her, accompanied by a man's voice that she was somewhat familiar with...
Her ears were ringing and her head was splitting. She couldn't hear clearly... She wanted to struggle to get up, but her body was as soft and weak as cotton.
Fear enveloped her...
It's not that she's afraid of death, it's just...
If I die...I will never see her again!
“Pei Pei…”
The figure before her blurred into one, splitting into multiple shadows that swayed back and forth in front of her. His body seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, making her feel a little unable to hold on...
Pei Yin's image is all in my mind
"Pei Yin..." She whispered Pei Yin's name over and over again, and blood gushed out...
After a while, Gu Cunxi felt someone helping her up. She closed her eyes, too weak to resist, as a hand held her right arm...
"Hmm..."
"you"
She struggled to move her arms, but couldn't. In her confusion, she seemed to have a man standing beside her...
"Get started!"
It was still that familiar voice... She couldn't see the person's face clearly!
The right hand was held down by the man next to him
"No..." She struggled to pull her hand back, but she couldn't move.
In just a moment, I felt a sharp pain in my arm as if the bone was broken.
"ah…"
Chen Feng stood aside and sneered, looking at her painful expression. At this moment, he felt extremely happy in his heart!
…
Gradually, her right hand seemed to lose the pain sensation, and the only remaining trace of consciousness gradually disappeared. She had never been more terrified than at this moment.
“Pei Pei…”
"I...can't seem to wait any longer..." She lowered her head and murmured
Chen Feng looked at everything in front of him, and the hatred in his heart was released. There was always a sneer on the corner of his mouth. After a long time, he looked at the person on the ground motionless, then he stood up and walked over.
He leaned over and whispered in Gu Cunxi's ear, "I told you not to cut off your own escape route on impulse. Gu Cunxi, this is the last time, and it's the price you should pay. If it happens again, I can't guarantee that you won't pay with your life!"
After that, Chen Feng stood up and stepped on her broken right arm and crushed it repeatedly.
"ah……"
The pain hit her instantly, and she screamed in pain, and then her vision gradually went dark.
…
The phone that was thrown aside stopped vibrating
The screen displayed more than a dozen missed calls, the last one being half an hour ago...
There was a bad premonition spreading in her heart.
Pei Yin felt uneasy when she recalled the last time Cunxi drove drunk without regard for the danger after he couldn't find her...
If she came here and was caught by Chen Feng, how would she be hurt...
She didn't dare to think...
After hesitating for a long time, Pei Yin picked up the phone and called back.
"beep…"
The busy tone lasted for a long time, and no one answered...
She frowned slightly, a little panicked, and called back again and again, but she never heard the voice she expected to hear.
"Cunxi...answer the phone quickly!"
She didn't know why she felt increasingly uneasy, like a huge rock blocking her chest, suffocating her...
Without caring about anything else, she picked up the key to the door and rushed out, wearing the torn shirt with a little blood on it. She had lost her usual calmness and composure.
On the way, she called Gu Cunxi again and again, anxiously. Just when she was about to hang up, her hand vibrated slightly and the phone was picked up.
“!!”
"Cunxi...why haven't you answered the phone? Where are you?" Pei Yin stopped and asked anxiously.
"Hello, may I ask who the owner of the phone is?" A woman's voice came from the phone.
“!!”
In an instant, she felt her heart gradually cooling down... She tensed up and said in a trembling voice, "I am...her family."
"That's great! She's seriously injured. I passed by and saw her lying on the ground, covered in blood. I'm on my way to the hospital, Jiren Hospital. Please come quickly."
The voice coming from the phone was as cold as a sharp knife, and the softest part of my heart was stabbed fiercely through the receiver.
She stood there, her body trembling uncontrollably, tears instantly falling, her mind blank as a roaring sound echoed...
She didn't have time to say anything more, she hung up the phone, ran out of the community, and stopped a car on the side of the road.
She was extremely anxious along the way, clenching her hands tightly, her joints were pale, and she bit her broken lips tightly, oozing a little blood.
"She was covered in blood and was seriously injured..."
The same sentence kept repeating in her mind, and she didn't dare to think about what Gu Cunxi had experienced!
If anything goes wrong with her, she won't survive...
In a blink of an eye, the car stopped at the hospital gate. Pei Yin hurriedly paid the fare, ran into the hospital like crazy, took out his cell phone and called
The phone was picked up a moment later
"Hello, have you arrived at the hospital? She has just been taken to the operating room. It's on the second floor, at the door of operating room number one," the woman said calmly.
After hanging up the phone, she ran to the second floor. The stairs were longer than any she had ever walked before.
Outside the operating room
She saw a woman standing in front of the door...
“!!”
It's her!
The woman's body was stained with blood red, which stung her eyes and made her legs more unstable.
"I'm the one who just called. How is she...?"
"Is the injury... serious?"
The woman turned to look at Pei Yin, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "It's quite serious, the body is covered in blood..."
"When I saw her in the underground garage, she was already unconscious. I'm not sure where she was injured, but she was covered in blood. The most serious injury... was probably her right hand, with a broken bone... The doctor said it was a comminuted fracture..."
Hearing this, Pei Yin staggered slightly and fell backwards. Seeing this, the woman hurried forward to support her and asked with concern: Are you okay?
My heart feels like it's been ripped out of my body, I can't even feel my heartbeat...
"Don't worry too much, it should be fine!" The woman helped her walk to a chair beside her and slowly sat down.
"Thanks…"
"Do you want to get the wound on your face treated?"
Pei Yin did not respond, she shook her head
“…”
The woman sighed slightly, and did not mean to leave. She sat aside in silence for a long time.
In the silent corridor, Pei Yin looked at the red light of the operating room in front of him, feeling hopeless.
They are only one door away...
