Chapter 95: It’s over, I let it slip



Although this was not the first time Zhou Qian had experienced such a thing, he still felt strongly psychologically uncomfortable because Lu Jing's injuries were obviously more serious this time.

She even saw bones.

The key point is that even after his wound was treated in this way, he didn't react at all.

Zhou Qian stared at Lu Jing's pale face for a while and continued to work.

"roll!"

Zhou Qian was carefully tending to her wound when Lu Jing suddenly waved his hand and roared. With this wave of his hand, the iodine in Zhou Qian's hand spilled out and splashed onto her hand.

"Brother Jing, my sister-in-law is here." Maozi stepped forward and spoke.

Lu Jing fell back onto the bed weakly and said weakly, "Get out!"

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry. Brother Jing is not conscious now. He doesn't really want to drive you away." Maotou explained nervously, fearing that Zhou Qian would really leave in anger.

"Let her go!" Lu Jing insisted.

Zhou Qian couldn't help but feel annoyed. "Lu Jing, if you don't want to live, you can find a place where no one is around and wait for death quietly. Don't drag others down, and no one will want to care about you."

Zhou Qian put down what he was holding, turned around and was about to leave, but the next moment, his wrist was grabbed.

"Let go." She thought it was a bully and struggled, but the other party held her hand even tighter. She turned around and found that it was Lu Jing's hand.

He lay there quietly, as if asleep, but the hand holding her wrist was very tight.

Zhou Qian struggled again, but he held her tighter, leaving a circle of red marks on her snow-white wrist.

Maotou was anxious, "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, I apologize to you on behalf of Jing brother, don't bother with him."

"Who is your sister-in-law? Stop calling me that." Zhou Qian was angry.

Maotou scratched his head foolishly, "Anyway, in my heart you are my sister-in-law."

Zhou Qian saw that he was young and looked quite cute with a silly smile, so he didn't feel like being mean to him.

After Lu Jing's injuries were treated, it was already two o'clock in the morning and Zhou Qian was so sleepy that he kept yawning.

The others who were guarding outside also went to rest. Maotou said to Zhou Qian, "Sister-in-law, it's too late today. They have all gone to rest. Why don't you stay here for one night too?"

"Is it convenient?" Zhou Qian really didn't want to go back and forth anymore.

"It's convenient, of course it's convenient." Maotou said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you a pillow."

Zhou Qian was puzzled. Shouldn't he take her to her room? What did he mean by taking a pillow?

Maotou quickly brought a pillow and a new set of toiletries. Zhou Qian watched him place the pillow next to Lu Jing's pillow.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Qian looked at him.

"Sister-in-law, go to bed early." Maotou said and disappeared in a flash.

“…” Zhou Qian’s mouth twitched.

I looked around the empty room and saw nothing but two single sofas.

She took out her cell phone and hesitated for a while, then finally put it down.

Even if she could get a ride-hailing service now, she was still a little worried because it was so late and in such a remote place.

Although Lu Jing is even less reliable.

Because Lu Jing was still running a fever, Zhou Qian didn't sleep well all night. She either got up to feed him medicine or give him water.

It was daybreak outside, so she decided not to sleep. Thinking that a group of grown men might not think of preparing food, she went downstairs to the kitchen and planned to cook some porridge.

But she found an earthen stove, the kind that required fire.

She knew how to make a fire, but she couldn't find anything to start it after searching for a long time.

At this time, there was a noise outside. Maotou came in carrying something.

"Sister-in-law, why did you get up so early?" Maotou looked surprised, as if he didn't expect to see her in the kitchen.

"I wanted to make some porridge, but I couldn't find anything to start a fire."

"Leave this matter to us. You go and look after Brother Jing." Maotou pulled her out.

"He needs to eat something now, otherwise his body can't bear it."

Maotou was happy to see that she cared so much about his boss, and he didn't dare to delay and quickly took out his lighter to start a fire.

After a while, Zhou Qian couldn't help but ask, "Why did the person who called me say that Lu Jing was injured like this because of me?"

Maotou hesitated and said, "If I tell my sister-in-law, you can't tell Brother Jing that I told you."

"Can you please not be my sister-in-law?" She became more and more annoyed the more she listened.

Maotou scratched his head embarrassedly, "I think calling me sister-in-law is more convenient."

“…”

Maotou saw Zhou Qian didn't say anything and was afraid that she would be angry. "Okay, okay, I will try to correct it."

"Go ahead." Zhou Qian continued to make a fire. It was a bit cold in the morning, but making a fire was quite warm.

"Actually, Brother Jing didn't mean to harm sister-in-law that day..." Maotou almost called out his sister-in-law again, and quickly changed his words, "The reason why Brother Jing did that that day was actually to protect Miss Zhou."

Zhou Qian didn't believe a single word of this. "Alright, you don't have to say anything good for him. Let's get straight to the point."

"Actually, I'm not very clear. I just know that the eldest daughter of the Qian family is looking for women who have been in a relationship with Brother Jing. If she finds anyone, that person will be in trouble."

At this point, Maotou thought for a moment, "Brother Jing was probably afraid that they would deal with you, so he deliberately tricked you to make Miss Qian relax her guard against you."

Zhou Qian snorted speechlessly, "I really thank him!"

Seeing that she clearly didn't believe him, Maotou became anxious, "What I said is true, sister-in-law...Miss Zhou, please don't disbelieve me."

"Have you ever seen anyone push someone into a fire pit in order to protect her?"

"That's not a self-torture trick."

Zhou Qian raised her hand to signal him to stop, "You really don't need to speak well of him in front of me. I don't care what his purpose is."

Maotou became even more anxious. "Even if you don't believe it, the car accident that Miss Zhou encountered some time ago can at least prove everything, right?"

Zhou Qian was stunned. "What does this have to do with the car accident?"

"Of course it's related. The car accident was either arranged by the Qian family or the Lu family. If Lao Niu hadn't saved his life that day..."

Having said this, Maotou suddenly stopped and covered his mouth in panic.

It’s over, it’s over, I’m dead now!

After hearing this, Zhou Qian already understood something.

The car accident that day wasn't an accident, it was man-made. The person who saved her that day wasn't some kind-hearted passerby, but...

Zhou Qian stood up and walked in front of Maotou, looking straight at him, "Who is Lao Niu?"

Maotou took a step back, his eyes dodging, and pretended to be dumbfounded and said, "What old cow? You heard me wrong, I didn't say anything about old cow."

He lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Zhou Qian at all.

"If you don't tell me, I'll go find Lu Jing."

"Sister-in-law..." Maotou nervously grabbed her, feeling annoyed at himself for speaking too quickly. He raised his hand and slapped himself a few times.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Qian hurriedly stopped him. She knew he was in trouble, but she still had to get to the bottom of this matter. "Tell me, I'm not going to look for Lu Jing."

"But..." Maotou scratched his head, looking very embarrassed, "Brother Jing warned us that Miss Zhou must not know about this."

"Don't worry, if you tell me, I'll pretend I don't know."

Maotou hesitated, "Do you mean what you say?"

Zhou Qian nodded.
