Chapter 254 Wrist Cut
As a result, Lu Junyan carried Jiang Ning down the stairs and threw her into the car.
Xiao Zhang tried several times to remind Lu Junyan that his head was still bleeding.
But he swallowed the words back down his throat.
Xiao Zhang drove Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan to the hospital.
Lu Junyan's head injury was quite serious and required stitches. Although Jiang Ning's hand injury was not as severe as Lu Junyan's, he was fortunate to be taken to the hospital in time, otherwise his peripheral nerves might have been damaged as well.
Jiang Ning is a jewelry designer, and her hands are especially crucial when it comes to patented setting techniques.
Jiang Ning's hands and Lu Junyan's head were both wrapped in thick bandages, and the doctor could tell at a glance that the two of them had been fighting.
However, considering Lu Junyan's identity, since the parties involved haven't said anything, the doctor doesn't need to call the police; it's better to avoid trouble.
A perfectly good night was wasted in the hospital.
In the end, Bai Yichen was alerted.
Because Bai Yichen had sent Jiang Ning a WeChat message early on, saying that he had already driven to her building.
Jiang Ning had no choice but to honestly tell Bai Yichen that she was in the hospital.
When Bai Yichen arrived at the hospital, he saw Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan standing together.
There was some distance between the two.
But Bai Yichen would never believe that the two had just met by chance at the hospital.
When Jiang Ning told him she was in the hospital, she didn't go into too much detail, only saying that she had injured her hand.
The existence of Lu Junyan was not mentioned at all.
Therefore, Bai Yichen was surprised when he saw Lu Junyan.
Lu Junyan's head was wrapped in thick gauze, indicating that he was seriously injured, while Jiang Ning's dominant hand was also wrapped in gauze.
Bai Yichen's face darkened, and he strode over.
Before Jiang Ning could call out to Bai Yichen, Bai Yichen threw a punch.
"President Lu!"
Xiao Zhang rushed over, but Lu Junyan's face was already bruised.
He was about to argue with Bai Yichen when he saw Lu Junyan wave his hand.
Blood started flowing from his nose, which Lu Junyan casually wiped away.
He has indeed been plagued by bloodshed and misfortune since last night.
Bai Yichen didn't actually know what had happened last night, nor did he know what Lu Junyan had done to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning was fine when he took her home, but when he woke up, Jiang Ning was in the hospital with an injured hand.
Even if he punched Lu Junyan, or even beat him up severely, Lu Junyan would not be wronged.
Lu Junyan did not retaliate, which shows that he also felt guilty.
In the hospital corridor, Bai Yichen stood next to Jiang Ning, and Lu Junyan stood next to Xiao Zhang.
The four people faced each other, and the atmosphere was eerie.
“Mr. Lu, you and Aning are already divorced. Please have some self-respect and stop harassing your ex-wife like a thug.”
After Bai Yichen coldly said those words to Lu Junyan, he put his arm around Jiang Ning's shoulder.
The moment the two turned around, Lu Junyan stepped forward.
"Jiangning!"
He shouted Jiang Ning's name.
Jiang Ning subconsciously turned her head and saw Lu Junyan staring intently at her, the gauze wrapped around his head not affecting the extremely serious expression on his face.
"If I said...we haven't divorced..."
"President Lu!"
Before Lu Junyan could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang held his phone in his hand, his expression serious and anxious.
"Dr. Li called to say that Miss Chu had cut her wrists."
Before Jiang Ning could finish listening to Lu Junyan's words, Lu Junyan hurriedly left the hospital with Xiao Zhang.
Miss Chu cut her wrists...
There are probably millions of Miss Chus in this world who would cut their wrists.
But there is only one Miss Chu who can make Lu Junyan so nervous.
Seeing the complex expression on Jiang Ning's face, Bai Yichen gently tucked a stray hair behind Jiang Ning's ear.
“Ah Ning…”
Bai Yichen's fingertips were warm, and when they brushed against Jiang Ning's ear, Jiang Ning felt a slight itch.
"Promise me you won't care what Lu Junyan says or does, okay?"
Jiang Ning looked at Bai Yichen.
The deep affection in Bai Yichen's eyes was like water about to overflow, clear and pure.
Jiang Ning nodded.
"Okay, I promise you."
"Then you have to promise me... no matter what I say or do, you have to forgive me."
"Okay, I'll answer... Huh?"
Jiang Ning realized before she could finish speaking that Bai Yichen was digging a trap for her!
She blinked her big, watery eyes and looked at Bai Yichen.
Bai Yichen wore a bitter smile, but his eyes held a sly glint.
What did you do?
Jiang Ning was curious.
As Bai Yichen and she walked out of the hospital side by side, he answered casually:
Would you be angry if I told you the truth?
Whether someone gets angry or not depends on how well you can coax them.
Jiang Ning chatted and laughed with Bai Yichen.
She guessed that Bai Yichen must have done something that might anger her, but it would definitely be helpful to her.
"I've officially announced it..."
"Official announcement?"
Jiang Ning's eyes widened.
Bai Yichen smiled knowingly, his smile radiating happiness.
"Yes, I officially announced online that I am your boyfriend."
"……ha?"
Jiang Ning and Bai Yichen had already arrived at the car. Bai Yichen opened the car door, took out a book, and handed it to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning was both amused and exasperated upon seeing this.
"You really are..."
She took the book and couldn't put it down.
"I'd say you're pretty good at sweet-talking people!"
Bai Yichen gave Jiang Ning his favorite pianist's autobiography, but the book had long been out of print. Not only did Bai Yichen manage to buy the out-of-print book, but it also had the pianist's autograph on it.
Jiang Ning could tell that Bai Yichen had put a lot of preparation into this "official announcement".
However, she could guess why Bai Yichen did this.
Chu Qingxue's wrist-cutting incident has undoubtedly become a new hot topic.
Jiang Ning thought that right now, the internet must be flooded with voices cursing her.
After all, the persona Chu Qingxue had created for her was that she lost the battle for a man, so she was accused of causing Chu Qingxue to go bankrupt, hiring people to gang rape Chu Qingxue, and now she had another crime to add to the list—
He forced Chu Qingxue to commit suicide by cutting her wrists.
Jiang Ning got into Bai Yichen's car and started scrolling through his phone.
As expected, many netizens have already discovered that the person who went bankrupt, was gang-raped, and attempted suicide was Chu Qingxue.
The love triangle between Chu Qingxue, her, and Lu Junyan provides a complete logical chain for her to persecute Chu Qingxue.
Now, netizens are labeling Jiang Ning as a "vicious ex-wife," a "snake-hearted first wife," and "the divorce was not unjust."
However, there were also those who spoke up for Jiang Ning.
For example, some people believe that Jiang Ning was Lu Junyan's original wife, so Chu Qingxue was the mistress. Now that the mistress has taken over, it is reasonable for the original wife to take revenge, but breaking the law and committing crimes is wrong.
However, some argue that it is the one who is not loved who is the mistress.
Some even brought up old grievances, pointing out that Jiang Ning was the one who had cheated on his wife first.
For a time, opinions were divided online, with arguments even more heated than those between the parties involved.
However, these are all previous comments.
The latest comments indicate a shift in sentiment, increasingly favoring Jiangning.
Because Bai Yichen officially announced that he is Jiang Ning's boyfriend.
Bai Yichen has his own Weibo account, which is linked to government projects.
A PhD who returns from overseas doesn't necessarily have a lot of popularity.
But a young, handsome PhD who is better looking than a celebrity is bound to attract attention.
As soon as Bai Yichen made the official announcement, netizens immediately felt that Jiang Ning's reasons for harming Chu Qingxue were untenable.
In Bai Yichen's car, Jiang Ning was engrossed in scrolling through her phone when suddenly a call came in. The caller ID made Jiang Ning even more alert—
It's Mo Yan.
Meanwhile, in the hospital's inpatient department, Chu Qingxue was receiving an IV drip, with Lu Junyan by her side.
He was also scrolling through his phone, and messages about Bai Yichen officially announcing that he was Jiang Ning's boyfriend kept flashing by, like needles pricking his eyes.
