The disinfectant in the hospital had a rather pungent smell.
The doctor carefully rinsed the hideous wound on Zhou Yang's right arm with saline solution.
Fortunately, Zhou Yang reacted quickly, and Xu Yao diluted the corrosion with mineral water in time, so the corrosion was not too severe.
But the red, swollen, blistered skin with charred edges was still a terrifying sight.
"hiss--"
Even though Zhou Yang's physique was far superior to that of ordinary people, the physical pain still made him gasp.
Fortunately, he managed to block it; otherwise, if it had splashed onto Feng Yuxuan's face, her life would have been completely ruined.
That woman who threw sulfuric acid was really ruthless; she was so vicious.
Zhou Yang secretly rejoiced, but at the same time felt even more disgusted with the woman who committed the crime.
Concentrated sulfuric acid is a dangerous chemical that ordinary people cannot access. The fact that the woman was able to access it indicates that she is not an ordinary person.
If the other party didn't obtain it through illegal means, then it's very likely that it came from some chemical laboratory or factory.
Instead of pursuing a promising future, he did this to a so-called celebrity, ruining his career. He's just out of his mind!
Feng Yuxuan stayed by her side the whole time, her pretty face full of concern and guilt, her beautiful eyes glistening with tears.
"Mr. Zhou, thank you so much. If it weren't for you... I can't even imagine what would have happened."
"I will take full responsibility for your medical expenses, as well as subsequent nutritional and emotional distress compensation. Please don't be shy with me."
Before Zhou Yang could even speak, Xu Yao, who was standing to the side, became displeased.
She stepped forward, subtly placing herself between Feng Yuxuan and Zhou Yang, her tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible jealousy and obvious protectiveness.
"Mr. Feng, there's no need for thanks. Zhou Yang saved you out of a sense of duty, not for your gratitude or compensation."
"The most important thing now is for you to go back and deal with Lu Yu and that crazy woman, and give Zhou Yang justice! We can't let him suffer like this for nothing!"
Hmph, if it weren't for you, Zhou Yang wouldn't have gotten hurt! And you're still pretending to be sympathetic.
The little figure in Xu Yao's mind had already started waving its fists.
Feng Yuxuan was slightly taken aback, then gave a wry smile, her gaze towards Xu Yao becoming more inquisitive before she nodded solemnly.
“Miss Xu is right. I, Feng Yuxuan, will always remember Mr. Zhou’s kindness. I will never let Lu Yu and that perpetrator off lightly!”
"Once the police have released their findings, the company's legal department will immediately follow up to ensure they receive the most severe punishment!"
Xu Yao's possessiveness towards Zhou Yang is truly remarkable.
However, what she said makes sense; now is not the time to dwell on expressing gratitude.
Feng Yuxuan quickly adjusted her mindset.
Just then, a series of noisy commotions came from outside the ward, and the words "Zhou Yang", "General Feng", and "sulfuric acid" could be vaguely heard.
A nurse rushed in, looking anxious: "Ms. Feng, Mr. Zhou, something terrible has happened! Downstairs... there are a lot of reporters and some agitated fans gathered downstairs, they've almost blocked the hospital entrance!"
"Please don't show yourselves at this time, otherwise the influx of people might disturb the other patients. Please cooperate and keep a low profile!"
"ah……"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang and the other two felt somewhat embarrassed, realizing that they had indeed caused trouble for the hospital.
Almost simultaneously, Xu Yao's phone screen lit up, and push notifications popped up one after another.
"#Top celebrity Lu Yu ordered security guards to drive away street vendors, but was slapped in the face instead#"
"#A die-hard fan stood up for his idol and threw acid at CEO Feng Yuxuan in the street#"
"#Mysterious stall owner Zhou Yang is poisoned while saving a beauty#"
"#Lu Yu's Scandalous Revelations Exposed, PUA Fans Cyberbully Rivals#"
"#Lu Yu's fan club splits, with many die-hard fans leaving and turning against him#"
Online discussions about today's incident on Aegean Street have completely exploded!
The past between Lu Yu and the woman who threw sulfuric acid was thoroughly investigated by netizens with their extensive knowledge.
It turns out that the woman was Lu Yu's die-hard fan, named Wang Li, who was also a top student majoring in chemistry at a prestigious university and had been photographed stalking Lu Yu on multiple occasions.
Even the celebrities themselves wouldn't like such obsessive fans.
However, if used properly, it can be a very useful gun.
Lu Yu felt nauseous while trying to comfort Wang Li.
Under Lu Yu's instructions, Wang Li has long acted as the head of an online troll army, organizing fans to insult and attack Lu Yu's rival artists and other netizens who have made comments unfavorable to Lu Yu.
In an instant, all sorts of scandals about Lu Yu's past, such as being arrogant, bullying newcomers, tax evasion, and sleeping with fans, sprang up like mushrooms after rain.
It's hard to tell if it's true or false, but it's enough to nail him to the pillar of shame.
His fan club also experienced a major upheaval.
A small number of die-hard fans are still putting up a stubborn resistance, trying to whitewash their idol.
However, many more rational fans chose to unfollow him, and some even turned around and exposed Lu Yu's hypocrisy and evil deeds.
Zhou Yang, the mysterious man who bravely rescued Feng Yuxuan on the street, has once again sparked a frenzy of speculation across the internet about his identity.
"Just who is this Zhou Yang? He owns Rolls-Royces and Paganis, spends lavishly on jade, and is a VIP of two major corporations. He even made President Feng bow down and apologize to him. Is he some kind of hidden rich kid?"
"What exactly is his relationship with Feng Yuxuan? Could he be CEO Feng's secret boyfriend?"
"Please expose Zhou Yang! He's so handsome! Handsome, kind-hearted, rich, and low-key!"
...
The entire internet is curious about who this Zhou Yang, who suddenly appeared, really is.
These so-called journalists and entertainment media outlets naturally had the aim of digging into Zhou Yang's background, obtaining firsthand information, and then gaining traffic.
Zhou Yang frowned slightly as he looked out the window at the dense crowd and the flashing camera lights.
"With this commotion downstairs, not even a fly could get out. Mr. Feng, Xu Yao, let's wait and go through the underground parking garage."
"good.
Xu Yao and Feng Yuxuan agreed in unison.
In this situation, going out through the main gate would be tantamount to walking into a trap.
Zhou Yang quickly treated the wound and obtained follow-up medication.
The three avoided the crowd and successfully left the underground parking garage.
Zhou Yang declined Feng Yuxuan's offer to take him home, and the three of them returned to the Aegean Shopping Center.
"Zhou Yang, I'll head to the police station now and give you an explanation!"
Feng Yuxuan looked at Zhou Yang with gentle eyes and said.
"Okay, go ahead!"
Zhou Yang waved his hand.
At this moment, his previous balut stall was still packed with people, even more so than before.
Many people came specifically after seeing the news, wanting to see the "heroic stall owner" and try the legendary "divine balut".
Zhou Yang looked at the crowded throng, rubbed his temples, and felt a real headache coming on.
"Zhou Yang, there are so many people gathered over there, should we go over there?"
Xu Yao couldn't help but frown slightly.
