The operating room doors finally opened, and Wu Youyou and the others gradually became nervous.
The doctor emerged exhausted, and Wu Youyou was the first to rush over, looking at him expectantly.
"Doctor, how is my friend?"
The doctor understood the family's feelings and offered words of comfort.
"The patient is out of danger. Fortunately, you brought her in time, otherwise we really wouldn't have been able to save her. I've never seen this kind of symptom before. Luckily, a friend of ours in Hong Kong has seen such a case before, otherwise the patient's death would have been horrific. Her entire skin would have peeled off completely, like taking off clothes, with no adhesion between the skin and tissue. The patient would have watched her skin peel away and died in extreme pain. After learning about the situation, we immediately began targeted treatment. Fortunately, the rescue was timely, but she cannot be moved or touched for the time being. She needs to be sent back to the ward along with the operating table."
The doctor's words almost made Wu Youyou faint, and the others present also felt a chill run down their spines after hearing them.
The thought that his fiancé's family was such a pervert gave Song Shaojie goosebumps.
Wu Youyou turned to look at Shi Zhan, her eyes filled with fear.
"How could the Xiao family be so cruel to Han Shuzhen? How dare they treat her like this! Isn't this treating human life like dirt?"
Shi Zhan's expression gradually turned cold, and his tone became somewhat serious.
"In front of the four great families, killing someone is as easy as crushing an ant. Moreover, Han Shuzhen is the eldest daughter of the Xiao family. The Xiao family is truly ruthless!"
Wu Youyou stared at Shi Zhan in disbelief. Han Shuzhen was actually the eldest daughter of the Xiao family! But if that was the case, she couldn't understand why they would treat her like this. After all, even tigers don't eat their cubs. Wu Youyou looked at Song Shaojie, wanting to confirm.
"Is she really the eldest daughter of the Xiao family?"
Song Shaojie nodded slightly.
Wu Youyou was filled with fear.
"If that's the case, then what exactly happened that led to him being framed by his own family and nearly losing his life?"
Shi Zhan and Song Shaojie exchanged a glance. Only they knew that among these so-called aristocratic families in Kyoto, kinship was sometimes the least worthy of being brought up in the face of money and power.
A flicker of longing flashed in Shi Zhan's eyes, then vanished. He looked at Wu Youyou and explained,
"Everyone knows that the Xiao family only has one eldest daughter, Xiao Yiqing. They wouldn't know there was also a Han Shuzhen, because they have long claimed that Han Shuzhen died of illness."
"This is absolutely outrageous! They're worse than animals!"
Wu Youyou couldn't help but burst into a tirade of curses. Just as she finished, medical staff wheeled out Han Shuzhen's bed. Upon seeing this, Wu Youyou immediately went to her. Seeing Han Shuzhen's haggard appearance, Wu Youyou felt a pang of heartache.
"Shuzhen, it's me, Youyou. I've come to see you, Shuzhen, Han Shuzhen. Can you hear me?"
Han Shuzhen lay quietly on the hospital bed, her eyelashes fluttering, a tear rolling down her cheek. Wu Youyou, seeing this, was overjoyed.
"Shuzhen, I know you can hear me. You're safe now. Take good care of yourself and recover. I'll take care of everything!"
Han Shuzhen could hear Wu Youyou speaking. She wanted to open her eyes, but she was too tired; her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't open them no matter what she did. So Han Shuzhen slightly parted her lips, as if she wanted to say something.
Wu Youyou realized that Han Shuzhen wanted to say something to her, so she put her ear close to Han Shuzhen's mouth.
"Shuzhen, I'm listening. What do you want to say?"
"Be...be careful of the Xiao...family!"
After Han Shuzhen finished speaking, she stopped talking, as if her words had exhausted all her energy. Wu Youyou looked at Han Shuzhen, who was lying quietly on the hospital bed with a pale face, like a glass princess, making people afraid to touch her, for fear that she would shatter if touched.
The medical staff wheeled Han Shuzhen away, and only then did Shi Zhan nervously look at Wu Youyou.
What did Han Shuzhen just say to you?
"Yes, what did she say?"
Song Shaojie was also very curious. Wu Youyou looked at them with a serious expression.
"Shuzhen just told me to be careful of the Xiao family!"
Wu Youyou looked blankly at Shi Zhan, only to see his face was terribly gloomy. Then she looked at Song Shaojie, who also looked very serious. Wu Youyou, who was not very scared at first, felt her heart skip a beat when she saw the two of them like this, and her eyes showed some fear.
Song Shaojie said in a deep voice,
"Zhanzhan, if the Xiao family wants to harm Youyou, they'll probably be even more ruthless than Han Shuzhen!"
Shi Zhan's eyes flashed with endless killing intent.
"If the Xiao family dares to harm Youyou, I will make the entire Xiao family disappear from the capital!"
Wu Youyou's heart trembled. She was shocked by the murderous aura emanating from Shi Zhan. Her heart was inexplicably moved, and the gloom in her heart vanished without a trace.
Wu Maoyan stopped the car and quickly entered the hospital, looking very flustered. In the corridor, he saw a patient being pushed by medical staff and came face to face with him.
Due to nervousness, Wu Maoyan mistook Han Shuzhen for Wu Youyou. His legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
His emotions collapsed instantly. He leaned against the wall, breathing rapidly, gradually losing control, and he wept bitterly.
"Youyou, why are you so disobedient? Why did you have to come to the hospital?"
At that moment, Wu Youyou and the others happened to see Wu Maoyan crying sadly.
Song Shaojie looked at Wu Maoyan in surprise, having never seen him like this before.
