Chapter 169 The Old Lover Appears



Li Xuemei's injuries were severe. In addition to glass shards embedded in her flesh, a roadside railing was broken and pierced her waist from behind, causing excessive blood loss. Her head also suffered a severe impact.

Lin did his best to save her, and although she survived, Li Xuemei still fell into a coma.

"No, Brother Lin, your medical skills are so amazing, you can definitely save my mother." Su Rou couldn't accept the fact that Li Xuemei might never wake up again, and she cried as she grabbed Lin Ye's arm.

Lin also shook him off with a look of disgust and said coldly, "I'm a doctor, not a god. It's a miracle that you survived with injuries like this. Be prepared."

Seven or eight hours of emergency treatment had left Lin Ye exhausted, and his face showed signs of fatigue.

Compared to Su Rou's anxiety and helplessness, Su Xi remained calm, asking, "What's the worst-case scenario?"

"He suffered a severe head injury. Even if he wakes up, he'll be bedridden for the rest of his life," Lin told Su Xi the truth.

Su Xi's face turned pale.

Being able to only lie in bed means...

To become a vegetable.

He can't even move, let alone speak.

She hasn't managed to get Li Xuemei to confess the truth yet, how can this vicious woman shut her mouth!

Lin also knew that Su Xi would find it hard to accept. She had always wanted to know about her background, but unfortunately, only Li Xuemei knew the truth.

Now that Li Xuemei has become like this, it's as if the truth has become a complete secret and can never be revealed.

"I will do my best to see if there are any other opportunities," Lin comforted her.

Su Xi knew he was tired, so she nodded. "I'll think of something else. There must be other ways out."

Even if Li Xuemei were dead now, she would never let the truth be tarnished.

After Lin left, Zhou Jingming rushed over upon hearing the news, bringing with him the surveillance video of the accident.

The two went to the next-door lounge, and Zhou Jingming showed the surveillance footage to Su Xi.

“This truck is very targeted. Look, it could have been driving in the second lane, but it's driving on the far right. The driver's expression is also very sharp; he's clearly staring at the vehicles in front of him.”

Zhou Jingming analyzed the car accident scene, "After the accident, he didn't get out of the car to check the situation, but sped away. This is obviously a planned murder."

"I guessed it too, but I didn't know who they were after." Before it was just guessing, but now that she saw the surveillance footage, Su Xi was even more confused.

Fu Yu, as her right-hand woman, never showed her true face.

Even if someone came for Fu Yu, Fu Yu is extremely skilled and meticulous in his movements, so he shouldn't have exposed his whereabouts and given the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

But if it's targeting Li Xuemei and her daughter, she can't figure out who it is.

The Su family has fallen into decline, and this family of three is like fish on a chopping block, at the mercy of others. It's unlikely that anyone would go to such lengths to take their lives.

Su Xi asked Zhou Jingming to zoom in on the driver's face, but the distance was too far, so all that could be seen was the man's ferocious expression, but his facial features were not clearly visible.

"I've already ordered people to search for this driver. If he's still alive, we'll dig three feet into the ground and find him." Zhou Jingming couldn't guess who it could be either.

If they were from Fengxiang Pavilion, their target should be Su Xi, not Fu Yu.

From this perspective, the Su family mother and daughter are highly suspicious.

In the corridor, Su Rou sat on a chair, hugging herself tightly because she was cold.

Looking so disheveled and down on her luck, who would have guessed how glamorous she used to be?

Suddenly, a dark shadow loomed overhead. Su Rou slowly looked up and her pupils contracted sharply.

Before she could even cry out, she was pulled around the corner.

"Hmm..."

With her mouth covered, Su Rou couldn't utter a single word, staring intently at the man.

The other person was wearing a fisherman's hat with the brim pulled low, and a black mask covering his face, revealing only a pair of sinister eyes. Su Rou had no idea who he was.

"What, after all these years, you don't recognize your old flame anymore?" a hoarse voice rang out.

It seemed to have come from ancient times, which made Su Rou tremble violently.

The man released his grip and threatened, "Be good and don't scream, or I'll kill you."

Su Rou was afraid of dying, so she nodded, but she couldn't stop her body from trembling.

The man took off his mask in front of her.

A face that was both strange and familiar gradually became clear in front of her, but Su Rou couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

Seeing her confused and unfamiliar expression, the man knew she had forgotten him. He leaned close to her ear and reminded her, "Back then, we were so in love that we were practically dying for each other. I was the one who helped you get into the entertainment industry."

Images flashed through Su Rou's mind, her pupils dilating as if they were about to burst.

"Long Xuan, it's you."

Seeing that she finally remembered, the man pinched her chin and said, "Baby, you've forgotten me. Do you know how heartbroken I am?"

Su Rou felt a chill run down her spine.

Long Xuan, a street thug.

Having just left the orphanage, she had endured much hardship and then began to let loose, getting involved with all sorts of men.

What's so special about ordering eighteen male models in one night?

She had forgotten exactly how many men she had slept with.

She met Long Xuan on the street. She was completely drunk when she came out of the bar and saw Long Xuan fighting with someone on the street. She thought the man was charming and took the initiative to seduce him.

The two spent a passionate night in the park.

Afterwards, Long Xuan kept pestering Su Rou.

It was then that Su Rou realized that Long Xuan was not only a hoodlum, but also a gigolo who only knew how to ask her for money.

Su Rou was getting fed up and kept trying to find a way to get rid of Long Xuan.

But this man was surprisingly difficult to deal with. No matter where she hid, he could always find her immediately. Su Rou didn't have much money to give him, so Long Xuan suggested that she enter the entertainment industry.

At the time, Su Rou also had this idea, so with Long Xuan's help, she got to know some underground bosses and asked them to help her introduce resources.

But being a boss in the underground business isn't easy; she can't make any money without selling something.

During the day, Su Rou was groped by those bosses, and at night she was tortured by Long Xuan. In order to escape this sea of ​​suffering, she chose to return to the Su family.

After that, Li Xuemei spent a lot of money to help her build her image and attract resources. Soon she gradually gained fame, her career took off, and she eventually became a top-tier actress.

She was surrounded by a halo of fame and received everyone's admiration and love. In addition, Long Xuan seemed to have suddenly disappeared from the world. As time went by, people gradually forgot about this person.

If he hadn't just revealed his identity, Su Rou wouldn't have remembered what Long Xuan looked like at all.

"How can I recognize you now that you've changed like this?" Su Rou retreated in fear, not daring to look directly at the person in front of her.

Back then, Long Xuan was fairly fair-skinned and had a wicked air about him, making him very good at attracting women.

But now, a scar on her face, resembling a centipede, horrified Su Rou.

"You think I'm ugly now?" Long Xuan asked, pressing his voice slightly.
