He turned to Jiang Yuqing and reported, "President Jiang, the bodyguard accidentally injured Mr. Xiao just now..."
Jiang Yuqing frowned. "Drive first."
The driver nodded and quickly started the vehicle.

He lay prostrate on Fu Yan's shoulder, breathing weakly, his back feeling as if a hole had been drilled in it, with warm blood continuously oozing out.
