Chapter 423: Jack is injured in a robbery
When in Hong Kong, sometimes there is a lot of work, and Lu Changxiao will stay in the company to work overtime. She is good at fighting, and there are bodyguards and drivers around her, so there is no need to worry about safety issues.
After work, Katie and William reminded Lu Changxiao to go home early.
Lu Changxiao agreed, but did not stop writing.
Once you get into the working state, time passes very quickly. The phone in the office rang. It was Sister Lan who called and asked her why she hadn't come back yet.
Lu Changxiao realized that it was already very late, so she said she would go back immediately.
Sister Lan asked her to wait in the studio, and she would drive there soon.
Who knew that on the way there, Sister Lan's car broke down, so she could only call Lu Changxiao and ask her to wait for a while.
Lu Changxiao asked Sister Lan to change the tire first, and she walked forward a few steps.
After putting the precious metals and gems into the safe, Lu Changxiao walked back by herself.
...
As he walked, Lu Changxiao felt that he was being followed.
He looked back.
There were quite a lot of people, about twenty or so thugs.
Lu Changxiao reached into his bag to take out the anti-wolf spray and replaced it with a short stick.
When he took out the short stick, Lu Changxiao swung it, and the short stick immediately turned into a long stick.
Lu Changxiao held the stick with both hands and prepared for attack.
The thugs paused when they saw it.
Then they thought, there are more than twenty of them, how can they be scared by a girl?
A short red-haired thug came forward to provoke him, but before he could get close to Lu Changxiao, a tall man suddenly jumped out from the side of the road and kicked the red-haired man away.
Jack protected Lu Changxiao behind him and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Seeing this, more than 20 thugs rushed forward.
Lu Changxiao picked up a stick and swept across, knocking more than a dozen thugs to the ground.
Jack also raised his long legs and kicked several thugs.
The thugs really didn't expect Lu Changxiao's fighting ability to be so strong.
But when they thought about what the man told them, this girl was a jewelry designer and had a lot of diamonds and gold on her body.
Faced with huge wealth, the gangsters didn't care about much, they got up and rushed to Lu Changxiao, trying to snatch her bag.
Knowing that Lu Changxiao was very skilled, Jack always rushed to her to protect her.
This affected Lu Changxiao's performance.
With a "click", a gangster's leg joint was stepped on by Lu Changxiao, making a crisp sound. Lu Changxiao took the time to say to Jack: "Stand on the side of the road, don't get in the way here!"
Jack punched a gangster who wanted to get close to Lu Changxiao: "There are so many of them, and they have knives in their hands. I'm afraid you will get hurt."
"If you don't mess around, I can handle it more easily."
As soon as the words fell, a gangster rushed towards Lu Changxiao with a knife.
In this situation, Lu Changxiao only needed to kick the thug away, but Jack rushed over to block him again. Lu Changxiao quickly pulled Jack's arm and pulled him over.
But Jack's left arm was still stabbed.
Blood immediately dyed his sleeves red.
Lu Changxiao picked up the stick and knocked down the thug who was approaching, and quickly dragged Jack to the side of the road: "Don't come over again!"
Jack felt that he was really making things worse, so he quickly took out his phone to call the police and watched the battle anxiously.
Without Jack's hindrance, Lu Changxiao swung the stick and hit countless afterimages. The thugs were beaten and screamed, and some of them fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
...
The police came quickly, but they didn't need to help anymore, as the gangsters were lying on the ground wailing.
Lu Changxiao explained the situation to the police, and Jack's arm was still bleeding. After taking his statement, the police asked Lu Changxiao to take Jack to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital for bandaging, seeing Jack gritting his teeth in pain, Lu Changxiao said unhappily: "You know my skills, and you should know your own strength. You came here to help but made things worse. Now you're fine, but you're injured."
The nurse bandaged Jack. From the conversation between the two, she knew that they had just experienced a robbery. Seeing Lu Changxiao scolding Jack fiercely, she thought the two were a couple, so she said: "Your boyfriend wants to protect you, don't blame him."
"He's not my boyfriend!"
Jack held Lu Changxiao's hand with his uninjured hand and coaxed him: "Okay, I know I was wrong. I won't be impulsive next time. Calm down."
The knife wound on Jack's arm was a bit deep, and he needed to be hospitalized.
Lu Changxiao asked Jack to notify his family, but Jack said that everyone at home was busy and he could do it alone.
...
After the tire was changed, before Lu Changxiao arrived, Sister Lan drove to the studio and found that the door was locked, so she called Lu Changxiao.
Lu Changxiao said that he was in the hospital. Sister Lan asked what happened.
When she heard that Jack was injured by gangsters, Sister Lan rushed to the hospital immediately.
When Jack saw that Sister Lan was going to pick up Lu Changxiao, he asked Lu Changxiao pitifully if he could bring him breakfast tomorrow morning, as he wanted to eat egg pancakes.
Even if it was a hindrance, Jack was injured to protect himself. Lu Changxiao asked him to have a good rest and bring him breakfast tomorrow.
...
Winnie learned that her son was injured and hospitalized, and hurried to the hospital to visit him.
Winnie had just arrived and said a few words, and Jack urged her to go back: "Don't come over these few days, Xiaoxiao will come to take care of me, and will bring me breakfast tomorrow morning."
Seeing her son injured and still grinning, Winnie said angrily: "He is really useless!"
"Okay, go back quickly."
After Winnie left, a man in a suit came to Jack's bedside.
Jack ordered with a cold face: "Go and find out who is instructing this group of hooligans."
The man in the suit nodded and quickly left the hospital.
...
The next day.
Lu Changxiao brought Jack the egg pancakes he wanted to eat, and a bowl of porridge.
After watching him finish eating, Lu Changxiao left.
Jack called her: "I want to eat dumplings at noon."
Lu Changxiao rolled her eyes, ignored him, and left.
At noon, Lu Changxiao still brought dumplings to Jack.
Jack proudly pinched a dumpling and put it in his mouth, praising: "The dumplings sent by Xiaoxiao are delicious!"
...
Lu Changxiao returned to school and went to the classroom to see classmates gathered together talking.
When Lisa saw her, she immediately came over: "Lu Changxiao, the police came to the school at noon."
Lu Changxiao looked up: "What happened in the school?"
"Didn't you notice that there was one person missing in the classroom?"
Lu Changxiao looked around the classroom and saw that almost all the classmates were there, except for Ellie.
"Ellie was taken away by the police."
"Why?"
"She was said to be involved in a robbery."
At this point, Lu Changxiao remembered what happened last night.
Could it be that Ellie was behind this?
...
In the afternoon, Lu Changxiao went to the hospital to visit Jack and told him about Ellie being arrested.
Jack said, "She deserves it. She deserves it. I don't understand why she always targets you, such a beautiful and excellent girl?"
"She stole my order before, but failed to get the recognition of the customer. She also wanted me to share part of her reward, but I refused. She was also exposed by the customer in front of her, which made her lose face in front of her classmates."
"That's not a reason for her to hurt you."
Seeing that Lu Changxiao had nothing in his hands, Jack asked sadly, "Didn't you bring me dinner?"
Lu Changxiao rolled his eyes at him, "You only injured your arm, and your leg is not broken. Can't you go to the restaurant to eat?"
Jack leaned on Lu Changxiao's shoulder pretending to be weak, "I am injured now, and my body is very weak. I can't even walk."
"You're still panting even though you're weak. Either we go to the restaurant to eat, or I leave. It's your choice."
Jack had no choice but to compromise: "I'll go if you accompany me, otherwise I'd rather go hungry."
