Su Ziqing hummed in response, her voice slightly choked as she forced herself to remain calm and composed, "Tell me if you have any news."
Hearing this, Lu Linghong gave her a deep look. "You're not staying in the capital?"
Su Ziqing shook her head, "There's nothing I can do here." In fact, it would only draw more attention and cause misunderstandings.
She has to go back to City A.
The thought that Gong Chengjue had planned so much, only to take such a risk after hearing that she was pregnant, and that all his plans had to be changed because of this change, made her very sad.
If only she had kept the news a secret from the beginning.
She is still not strong enough.
She booked a flight directly on her phone and looked at Lu Linghong, "Take me to the airport."
"You need to rest." Lu Linghong said seriously. "You're not alone now." She came all the way from City A and hasn't had a moment's rest since. Now she's thinking of rushing back to City A?
As a pregnant woman, how could her body possibly withstand it?
Su Ziqing shook her head, "I'm fine. I know my own body." This is not the time to be stubborn. How could she joke about her health?
Rather, her presence in the capital was too conspicuous, so leaving now was the best course of action.
"Senior brother, do you think I would joke about my own body?" Su Ziqing gave him a forced smile.
"Yes." That person was Gong Chengjue.
Su Ziqing: "Really, no, you have to believe me."
Lu Linghong knew he couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he said, "Let's have lunch first." She was even less likely to eat airplane food now.
Su Ziqing checked the flight schedule and shook her head. "We won't make it. How about we eat at the airport?"
This can be considered a compromise.
Lu Linghong agreed, since the food at the airport restaurant was always better than airplane food.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
"Bang!" A car came from the opposite direction, and before Lu Linghong, who was driving, could react, the two cars had already collided.
With a loud bang, the impact was exceptionally loud.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Su Ziqing's head was buzzing, and her vision began to blur. All she could see was blood flowing from Lu Linghong's forehead in the driver's seat...
She wanted to open her mouth and call out, "Senior Brother."
She didn't know if she had cried out; all her senses seemed to go sluggish at that moment.
……………………
When Su Ziqing woke up, she only saw an unfamiliar ceiling. The light under the lampshade was dim and not glaring.
She still felt dizzy and was momentarily dazed, not knowing what had happened.
She could faintly hear voices outside the door. She looked around at the place where she was lying. Although it was as luxurious as a hotel, it was definitely a hospital.
Yes, a car accident...
She struggled to get up, feeling dizzy. She forced herself to open the door and immediately recognized that her hospital room was a VVIP level room, equivalent to a hotel presidential suite.
Outside the ward was a reception room, and in the reception room were doctors dressed in white coats and... members of the Gong family?
Su Ziqing shook her head. "What happened? Where's my senior brother? How is he?"
She remembered that before she fainted, the first thing she saw was her senior brother's bloodied face.
Because the incident happened so suddenly, Su Ziqing could feel that in order to minimize the impact, Lu Linghong reacted immediately by turning the steering wheel, causing the driver's seat to bear the greatest impact force.
This first instinctive reaction put immense pressure on Su Ziqing, who had just woken up. Was her senior brother... alright?
Xiang Liyi, Gong Changfan's wife and the current matriarch of the Gong family, looked at Su Ziqing upon hearing her voice and said, "Miss Su, you're awake."
Despite feeling dizzy, Su Ziqing walked towards the doctor and asked, "How is the person I was with?"
Seeing that Su Ziqing's condition was not right, Xiang Liyi went forward to support her, saying, "Don't panic, go back to bed and lie down." She didn't directly mention Lu Linghong's condition.
However, the more this happened, the more worried Su Ziqing became, because if everything was alright, they would have told her immediately that everything was fine.
If you're not giving a direct answer now, it means things are bad.
She grabbed Xiang Liyi's hand tightly, her voice trembling with excitement, "Madam Gong, how is my senior brother?"
Su Ziqing and Xiang Liyi were actually not familiar with each other at all, and had not even exchanged more than a few words. When she woke up after the accident and saw Xiang Liyi there, she was, to be honest, surprised but also somewhat expected.
After all, they weren't actually that far from the Gong family at the time.
Xiang Liyi lowered her eyes. "It's a bit bad." She chose her words carefully, afraid that Su Ziqing's emotions might be too agitated and affect the baby in her womb.
"Where is he?" Su Ziqing stood up excitedly.
“Ms. Su, don’t be nervous. Although the impact was small, it still affected the fetus. The doctor said you need to calm down now.” Xiang Liyi pressed her down. “Can you calm down first?”
Su Ziqing could feel a warm sensation flowing out of her body, as if it were warning her that if she didn't listen, then if she made any more rash moves, then the child... would be lost to her.
She lay back down, trying to calm herself, but she couldn't. She grabbed Xiang Liyi's hand and asked, "Tell me the truth, how is he?"
Xiang Liyi looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "She is still not out of danger."
"I want to go and see." Su Ziqing bit her lip.
"Okay." Xiang Liyi swallowed back the words of advice she was about to say. She was terrified when she received the call saying that Su Ziqing and the others had an accident not far from the Gong residence.
This is no coincidence at all.
This is a warning.
Su Ziqing was unconscious for most of the day. Gong Changfan came and left, and Xiang Liyi stayed to take care of Su Ziqing.
After searching around, they found that there was no suitable person to take care of Su Ziqing.
Lu Linghong's ward was downstairs from Su Ziqing's; they took the elevator down one floor to get there.
Even the quietest hospital, no matter how luxurious its decor, still reeks of disinfectant, seemingly reminding everyone that this is a place for emergency treatment, but also a place where life may end.
No matter how powerful or influential you are.
Su Ziqing had an injury on her forehead, which was bandaged. She was sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed by Xiang Liyi to see Lu Linghong.
Lu Linghong is still in critical condition; he suffered a head injury and has undergone surgery.
The Lu family members were all waiting at the hospital. Lu's mother had just washed her face with tears, her eyes were red and swollen. Her perfectly healthy son had suddenly suffered such an unexpected disaster.
Mr. Lu suppressed his pain, but his face remained taut.
Lu Linghong's younger sister, Lu Beibei, showed great strength at this time and also comforted her parents.
However, the moment Lu Beibei saw Su Ziqing, she completely lost control. She walked towards Su Ziqing, shouting, "What are you doing here?!"
Before Su Ziqing could say anything, Lu Beibei yelled at her, "Are you only satisfied when you've killed my older brother?"
“Miss Lu…” Xiang Liyi frowned. Lu Beibei was acting very unladylike.
