Chapter 336 It was intentional!
Mu Nanyan was slightly startled, then took the cake. She noticed that Song Yajun's mouth stiffened instantly and Shangguan He's thoughtful look.
"Thanks."
Mu Nanyan said softly, her fingertips gently stroking the edge of the bone china plate.
Shangguan Fuling was about to speak when someone suddenly rubbed her hair from behind.
Shangguan Jiuze appeared behind her at some point, his slender fingers still in a mischievous gesture.
"Alas, now I, as a brother, can't even get a cake handed to me by my sister. I feel so unloved."
He deliberately drew out his voice, his tone very sour.
Shangguan Fuling and Mu Nanyan looked at each other and both burst out laughing.
Mu Nanyan couldn't help but jokingly said, "How about I give you my piece?"
Shangguan Fuling was immediately unhappy when she heard this. She pouted and said dissatisfiedly:
"No, this is the filling I specially reserved for Sister Nan Yan!"
"What a heartless little fellow."
Shangguan Jiuze said this and rubbed Shangguan Fuling's hair again. Although he complained, the doting in his eyes could not be deceived.
However, Shangguan Fuling's face darkened. She immediately slapped Shangguan Jiuze's hand away and said dissatisfiedly:
"Don't rub my head! I've been working on this look for a long time!"
Shangguan Jiuze paused, feeling a little awkward for a moment. Shangguan Fuling glared at Shangguan Jiuze and said through gritted teeth:
"You want cake, right? Come on, I'll cut you a big piece that won't kill you!"
In fact, Shangguan Jiuze didn't take this matter to heart. He just found an excuse to follow and wanted to talk to Mu Nanyan, but before he could say a few words, he was dragged away by Shangguan Fuling.
Mu Nanyan looked at the two people's backs as they walked away and sighed helplessly.
She lowered her eyes to look at the exquisite cake in front of her, and gently scooped a small piece with a silver spoon and put it into her mouth.
The sweet cream melts on the tip of the tongue, but it can't dispel the slight sense of loss in my heart.
After finishing the last bite of cake, she searched for Shangguan Fuling in the banquet hall where people were drinking and chatting.
I saw Shangguan Fuling surrounded by several girls, laughing and shaking, obviously having a great time chatting.
Mu Nanyan hesitated, but ultimately did not go forward to disturb them.
She took out her cell phone, sent a text message to Shangguan Fuling, and quietly left the noisy banquet hall.
The elevator slowly descended, and Mu Nanyan stared at the constantly jumping floor numbers in a daze.
When the "B1" light came on, she adjusted her skirt and walked towards the dim underground parking lot.
She came to the key storage area, tapped the combination lock with her slender fingers a few times, and with a "click", the car key with the gold-plated logo fell into her palm.
[Parking space No. 08, Area B]
Looking at the location information sent by the waiter on her mobile phone, Mu Nanyan frowned slightly.
This was Mu Nanyan's first time at the hotel, so she wasn't familiar with the parking lot. She could only follow the signs and slowly look for her car.
She walked for a while and finally arrived at Area B. Just as she lowered her head to check the information again, dazzling car lights suddenly lit up on the left.
Mu Nanyan looked up suddenly and saw a black car speeding towards her.
Mu Nanyan's breathing suddenly stopped, and the blood in her body seemed to freeze in an instant.
The glaring car lights stretched her figure out long, casting a stiff silhouette on the concrete ground.
Her fingers unconsciously clenched the phone, her knuckles turning white from the force.
After a brief pause, the brain erupted with a sharp alarm: Get out of the way! Get out of the way!
But his legs seemed to have taken root, firmly fixed in place.
Fear surged up her spine like a tide, and she could even hear her own heartbeat, beating violently, again and again, almost bursting through her chest.
The car was getting closer and closer, and the roar of its engine was particularly harsh in the empty underground parking lot.
The sharp sound of tires rubbing against the ground tore at my eardrums, and the pungent smell of gasoline hit me in the face.
At the critical moment, Mu Nanyan suddenly pounced to the right!
Her body fell hard on the cold ground, and her elbow scraped against the rough cement, causing a burning pain.
The car whizzed past her skirt, and the strong wind lifted her long hair.
Mu Nanyan was breathing heavily, her chest heaving.
She stared at the car that had just hit her, shaking uncontrollably.
Mu Nanyan slumped on the ground, watching the black car suddenly stop with a sharp brake sound, and then reverse without hesitation, adjust the direction, and aim at her again.
The headlights were blinding, the engine was roaring, the tires were rubbing against the ground with a sharp hiss, and they were rushing towards her again!
Mu Nanyan's pupils suddenly shrank, and the blood in her body seemed to freeze at this moment.
It didn't want to stop at all!
It's intentional!
She struggled to get up, but the severe pain in her knees made her unable to exert any strength. Her arms went limp and she fell back to the cold ground.
The glaring beams of car lights approached, and she could even see the blurry but hideous face in the driver's seat.
He is laughing.
He was enjoying her fear.
Mu Nanyan's throat tightened, and even her scream was stuck in her chest.
She instinctively raised her arms to shield herself in front of her, as if that would protect her from the incoming impact.
There's no escape...
This time, she really couldn't escape...
Why...who wants to kill me?
"Bang--!"
There was a deafening crash suddenly, the dazzling headlights suddenly turned in the direction, and accompanied by a sharp brake sound, the black car was violently knocked away by a silver sports car at the last moment before it was about to run over Mu Nanyan!
The harsh sound of twisting metal echoed in the empty parking lot, and shattered headlight glass scattered all over the ground like raindrops.
Mu Nanyan was trembling all over. She slowly lowered her arms that were blocking her front and looked at the scene in disbelief.
The door of the silver sports car was suddenly pushed open, and a tall and slender figure walked out quickly.
When she saw the person's face clearly, Mu Nanyan's pupils suddenly constricted.
It's... Lu Yiran! Why is he here?
The man's handsome face was now terrifyingly gloomy, and a terrifying chill was surging in his ink-black eyes.
He rushed to Mu Nanyan in two steps and knelt on one knee to carefully check her injuries.
"Where are you hurt?"
There was a barely perceptible tension in his low, cold voice.
Mu Nanyan opened her mouth, but found that her throat was too dry to make any sound. She could only shake her head, her slender fingers trembling uncontrollably.
Lu Yiran's gaze swept over her scraped arms and bleeding knees, and the coldness in his eyes became even stronger.
He suddenly raised his head and shot a sharp gaze at the black car.
The man in the driver's seat obviously didn't expect someone to suddenly appear. After a brief moment of surprise, he stepped on the accelerator.
The tires made a harsh sound as they rubbed against the ground. The car quickly reversed at a tricky angle, then turned sharply and sped towards the exit!
"stop!"
Lu Yiran shouted sternly, his voice filled with chilling anger.
But the other party ignored him and disappeared around the corner of the parking lot in the blink of an eye.
The man secretly clenched his long fingers, his knuckles turning white from the force.
He forced himself to look away. The most important thing right now was Mu Nanyan's injury, so he could only let the damn attacker go for the time being.
Lu Yiran turned around, and when his eyes fell on Mu Nanyan's exposed skin, his brows suddenly furrowed.
Without a word, he took off his well-tailored suit jacket and gently placed the warm fabric over her trembling shoulders.
"Put it on."
His voice was so low that it seemed to be vibrating from his chest.
Mu Nanyan looked down at his movements and her cheeks instantly turned red.
Only then did she realize that her strapless dress had slipped down during the intense movement, revealing her enticing curves.
She quickly pulled Lu Yiran's clothes together to block the view in front of her. Even so, Mu Nanyan was still a little embarrassed and even temporarily forgot the pain in her knees.
"Can you stand up?"
Lu Yiran didn't notice her embarrassment at all.
His jawline was tense and there was a terrifying storm in his eyes, as if he was going to tear the culprit into pieces in the next second.
But when his eyes touched her bleeding wound, all his violence turned into careful restraint.
Mu Nanyan nodded, and Lu Yiran grabbed her wrist and pulled her up from the ground.
As soon as Mu Nanyan nodded, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her up.
The sudden movement affected her injured knee, and she gasped in pain. Her legs went limp and she was about to fall forward.
“Hmm!”
Lu Yiran's strong arms instantly wrapped around her waist.
Through the thin fabric, she could clearly feel the temperature of his palm, so hot that it almost burned her skin.
Before Mu Nanyan could react, the world was spinning around her and she was picked up sideways.
"Lu, Lu Yiran!"
She exclaimed, grabbing the front of his shirt, the expensive fabric crinkling between her fingers.
The man turned a deaf ear and walked forward with big strides holding her.
The low pressure emanating from his body made Mu Nanyan silent, and she could only hear the heavy heartbeat in his chest.
"Where's your car?"
Every word Lu Yiran said seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
"Zone B...Parking Space 08..."
She answered in a low voice, like a child who had done something wrong.
Lu Yiran paused and suddenly looked down at her.
From this angle, you can clearly see fear in his obsidian eyes under his thick eyelashes.
But the fleeting emotion was soon replaced by a deeper sinisterness, and the movement of him holding her and turning towards area B was almost rough.
"Do you know how dangerous that was?"
The suppressed anger in Lu Yiran's voice made the air freeze.
Mu Nanyan pursed her lips and didn't dare to refute.
When Mu Nanyan was put into the passenger seat, Lu Yiran suddenly leaned over.
The scent of cedar mixed with leather instantly surrounded her, and as his slender fingers pulled the seat belt, his knuckles accidentally brushed against her collarbone.
The distance was so close that she could count the number of his eyelashes. Mu Nanyan held her breath and watched his Adam's apple roll.
He paused, looked at her with dark eyes, and said in a low, hoarse voice:
"That person is coming for you."
Not a question, but an affirmation.
Mu Nanyan's fingertips trembled slightly, and she slowly clenched the corner of her clothes.
She knows.
Of course she knows.
From the moment the car lights shone on her for the second time, she knew that this was not an accident, but a deliberate murder.
When Lu Yiran started the engine, the steering wheel creaked in his palm as if it could not bear the weight.
The white Mercedes rushed out of the parking lot like an arrow, and its tires made a screeching sound on the concrete ground.
The dim light from the street lamps flowed across his angular features, giving his taut jawline a cold and hard glow.
Her fingertips unconsciously tugged at the hem of her skirt, her knuckles turning white from the effort, and she didn't dare look at the traffic speeding past the window.
Lu Yiran glanced at her pale face and tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
The accelerator was pressed deeper, the speedometer needle kept shifting to the right, and the scenery outside the window had blurred into a block of color.
Ten minutes later, a screeching brake sound was heard in front of the hospital's emergency room.
Lu Yiran unbuckled his seat belt swiftly, but found that Mu Nanyan was still sitting in her seat, staring at a certain point in the void with a distracted look.
He frowned and strode around to the passenger seat. When he leaned over to unbuckle her seat belt, he smelled the faint scent of jasmine mixed with the smell of blood in her hair.
Lu Yiran picked her up and carried her sideways. It was not until the car door slammed shut that she came back to her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream.
"Put me down, I can walk by myself..."
Her voice was as light as a feather, and her cheeks flushed due to the strange looks from the people around her.
Lu Yiran ignored her and strode towards the emergency room with her in his arms. Every step he took was very heavy, as if he was venting his anger that had nowhere to go.
Mu Nanyan: "..."
At this time, the chief physician in a white coat was already waiting at the door. Seeing Lu Yiran, he said respectfully:
"Mr. Lu, the trauma room is ready. Please follow me."
The smell of disinfectant instantly filled my nose.
Mu Nanyan was gently placed on the examination bed, and the cold metal touch made her shiver.
Lu Yiran stood by the bed, his voice as cold as ice:
"Give her a full body checkup."
When the stethoscope was placed on her chest, Mu Nanyan suddenly realized that the zipper of her dress had slid to her waist.
She tried to cover herself in panic, but a big warm hand held her wrist.
"Don't move."
Lu Yiran's voice was low and restrained.
He took off the suit jacket on his arm, and his slender fingers flexibly tied a knot around her waist, just enough to cover all the spring light.
When the disinfected cotton ball touched the wound, Mu Nanyan trembled with pain, and her fingers clenched the bed sheet tightly, her knuckles turning white.
Lu Yiran stared at her furrowed brows, his eyes terribly gloomy:
"Be gentle."
The chief physician's hand suddenly froze in mid-air. She had clearly been very gentle.
The chief physician quietly raised his eyes to look at Mu Nanyan. Even though her hair was messy, her makeup was slightly smudged, and she looked a little disheveled, it couldn't hide her amazing beauty.
Her porcelain-white skin shone with a pearly luster under the cold light, her lower lip, which was bitten lightly due to pain, was flushed red, and her long eyelashes cast a trembling shadow under her eyes when they drooped.
The doctor suddenly had an idea and unconsciously lightened his movements.
It's not that she was too harsh, it's clearly that Mr. Lu couldn't stand seeing a beautiful woman frown.
She secretly glanced at the man standing beside the bed, only to see that his eyes were always fixed on Mu Nanyan, as if he wanted to bear all the pain she was suffering.
Mr. Lu is heartbroken.
