Xu Zhe took a taxi to the hospital, and as soon as he got out of the car, he was surrounded by Si Kangzhu and several bodyguards.
"Miss Zhe, come back with me. Young Master is injured." Si Kangzhu gestured for her to get into the car behind.
"Injured?" Xu Zhe didn't understand. He was already home, and Xu Zhai'an had kept it a secret like a barrier. How could he be injured?
Could it be that he was hurt by the slap she gave him?
That's his problem too, he's the one who used force!
She'd just survived a terrible ordeal; Qin Yuyang was still in the hospital saving her, and he still had the nerve to do *that*?! Is Xu Zhengxi some kind of human teddy bear?!
"I'll go up and take a look first." Xu Zhe stepped aside, trying to go around the person.
Si Kangzhu continued to block her way.
Xu Zhe looked up and met that poker face: "I'll just go up and take a look and then leave."
Si Kangzhu remained motionless.
Xu Zhe pushed his way through the crowd and walked inside.
After all, she was the young master's woman, and none of the men dared to lay a hand on her; they were too restrained to stop her.
Si Kangzhu gritted her teeth and decided that she would definitely hire a female bodyguard tomorrow to carry her back!
In the ward, Qin Yuyang had already woken up.
Upon seeing Xu Zhe appear at the door, all the monitoring devices by the bed started alarming.
Qin Yuyang's parents were frightened and quickly pressed the call button to call a doctor.
Xu Zhe also looked at the doctor with trepidation, listening to and looking at him from all angles.
"It's nothing." The doctor removed the stethoscope from his ear. "He just got too excited when he saw the little girl!"
After saying that, he pointed at Xu Zhe and walked out of the ward with a big smile.
Qin Yuyang's parents breathed a sigh of relief and then reacted, greeting Xu Zhe.
Xu Zhe felt incredibly guilty. If it weren't for protecting him, Qin Yuyang wouldn't have been so badly injured.
Qin Yuyang's parents, however, were very understanding and comforted her instead.
They knew Xu Zhe, the girl the brat had a crush on since high school.
Both children were academically gifted and were originally going to attend the same university with the same major. Unexpectedly, Xu Zhengxi was transferred to Lingnan, and Xu Zhe followed her there.
Qin Yuyang's parents were both cadres in Beidu. Although their rank wasn't as high as Xu Zhengxi's, their family was still well-off. Thinking that the two children might get married, they had already prepared the betrothal gifts!
Xu Zhe was relieved to see that Qin Yuyang had woken up. She didn't dare to stay any longer and took her leave to go home.
Si Kangzhu, with a stern face, saw Xu Zhe off. After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke:
"Miss Zhe, the young master's foot was cut by a piece of porcelain."
Xu Zhe was distracted and didn't hear Si Kangzhu's words. She had been thinking about how to let Qin Yuyang know that she had a boyfriend, and how to turn any feelings that hadn't blossomed into friendship.
"Miss Zhe, don't you care at all?!" Si Kangzhu thought her heart was still in the hospital and she didn't care about his young master at all, so he honked his horn angrily.
Startled by the horn blaring, Xu Zhe finally snapped out of his daze: "What's wrong?"
Si Kangzhu suppressed her anger; after all, he was the young master's man.
"Young Master injured his foot and bled a lot. Please take good care of him when you get back." He asked for Xu Zhengxi's concern.
"How did this happen?" Xu Zhe frowned. She had heard that he was injured before entering the hospital, and she thought he was hit by her. She didn't expect it was a foot injury.
"Go back and ask the young master!" Si Kangzhu deliberately didn't explain the reason, letting Xu Zhe ask the young master himself. This way, he wouldn't go back without even asking.
A foot injury can heal in a few days, but a heart injury is hard to heal... Si Kangzhu has recently come to understand this quite well.
He sighed softly, thinking of Chen Cheng's coldness during this period, and felt a great deal of sympathy for the young master.
Chen Cheng ignored him for several days, not replying to WeChat messages or answering phone calls. She even came back early on New Year's Eve without telling him.
He wasn't unaware of his desires, it's just... he wasn't ready yet...
As soon as Xu Zhe got out of the car, Butler Zhou and Aunt Lin flanked her on either side.
Butler Zhou's attitude towards her was unusually serious: "Miss Zhe, the young master has injured his foot."
Xu Zhe nodded: "I know."
Butler Zhou: "You don't know."
Xu Zhe: Do I know? Don't I know myself?
Butler Zhou continued, "Young Master noticed that you left without a word, which is why he broke the porcelain by the door and cut his foot, causing it to bleed a lot."
"He was injured because of this?!" Xu Zhe's voice rose at the end.
Butler Zhou nodded solemnly.
"He's so reckless! He gets angry so easily and even broke porcelain. Are those porcelain pieces in the corridor antiques?" Xu Zhe exclaimed, sounding very angry.
Butler Zhou's face turned ashen, and he was too suffocated to speak.
Aunt Lin waved to him, signaling for her to speak:
"Miss Zhe, please take good care of the young master later. After all, he was injured because he was anxious and worried about you."
"You don't know, when the young master came back from Shanghai and found out you were missing, he went completely mad."
Once Xu Zhe calmed down, he realized that he had just escaped a close call, and it was normal for Xu Zhengxi to worry about taking drastic actions.
"Aunt Lin, I understand. I didn't consider the consequences and went out without saying a word."
Butler Zhou's expression improved, and Aunt Lin smiled and led her to her room.
Xu Zhe entered the bedroom and saw Xu Zhengxi leaning against the bed.
"Your feet..." She wanted to take good care of him.
Xu Zhengxi interrupted, "Come here."
As soon as Xu Zhe approached the bedside, he was pulled into his arms.
"Go to sleep." He covered her with the blanket and pulled her closer...
Not long after Xu Zhe left the hospital, Yang Huanhuan, wrapped in a thick long coat, entered the emergency room.
The nurse on duty asked her where she felt unwell, and Yang Huanhuan pulled down the hood of her coat.
The nurse on duty gasped: "Were you assaulted? Should I call the police for you?!"
Yang Huanhuan shook her head, her face swollen and pale, unable to make any expression.
"No need to call the police, please arrange a doctor for me." Her voice was hoarse, as if there was a gaping hole in her throat.
The on-duty nurse quickly helped her into the examination room and helped her lie down.
The doctor came in quickly and examined her injuries, which were all soft tissue contusions, nothing serious.
"Are there any other injuries?" the doctor asked.
Yang Huanhuan paused for a few seconds: "And... below."
