Gu Yutian went completely mad, cursing and swearing incessantly until the patrol officers arrived a few minutes later, and she was still cursing loudly.
When the police saw that everyone present was someone of high status and learned that someone had splashed concentrated sulfuric acid on someone, they realized that this was no small matter and immediately reported it to their superiors.
“Mr. Su, I’m afraid we’ll have to trouble you to come back with us. We need to take a statement.”
Just as Su Shenglin was about to agree, I interjected, "Officer, we need to go to the hospital first. Can we go later?"
"OK."
The police officers tried to take Gu Yutian away, but she resisted fiercely and refused to cooperate. In the end, she was forcibly taken away by three police officers.
"Jiang Wan! I won't admit defeat! You ruined me, you ruined my brother, I won't forgive you!" The hysterical curses gradually faded into the distance, but my heart was still trembling.
When I came to my senses, the first thing I did was look up at Su Shenglin, ready to tell him to go to the hospital, but he preemptively asked with concern, "Are you really alright? Did you get splashed on your arm?"
"I'm fine," I emphasized again, though I was particularly worried about him. I turned him around to look at his back, then reached out and touched him. "What about you? Are you sure you're okay? Is your back still hot? We need to get to the hospital right away..."
"It's much better now." Su Shenglin shook his head, his gaze falling on the trench coat on the ground. "That coat did a great job."
I followed his gaze to the trench coat on the ground. The area where the sulfuric acid had been poured on was now severely charred, as if it had been burned by an open flame.
My heart trembled even more violently. I dared not imagine what it would be like if this stuff were splashed on my face, or on Su Shenglin's head and neck...
"Where is Mu Xi?" Su Shenglin suddenly asked.
“She was just here,” I replied, then suddenly shuddered. “Did she get splashed?”
Many people were affected and all went to the restrooms.
I was terrified and ran straight to the bathroom.
Sure enough, a few drops splashed onto the back of Chen Muxi's hand, which she continued to rinse with running water.
"How are you? If it's not better, go to the hospital and see a doctor." I looked at the red spots on the back of her hand, feeling both worried and guilty.
"It's okay, I just checked online. For small splashes like this, just rinse it with water." Chen Muxi was calm and not worried at all.
But I'm not at ease.
The matter started because of me. If it involves others, I can apologize and let it go. But if it involves Chen Muxi, I won't be able to explain it to Su Shenglin and the Su family.
"You should still go to the hospital to get checked out. Your brother needs to get checked out too."
Chen Muxi was startled and turned to look at me: "How is my brother? Is he burned?"
“He said no, but the coat is clearly corroded.” I pulled Chen Muxi along, feeling uneasy. “Let’s go, we’ll only feel at ease if we go and take a look together.”
Su Shenglin was worried about his sister, so he waited in the corridor outside. As soon as we went out, he rushed to check on her.
"Whether there's something wrong or not, go to the hospital to get checked out." I insisted, pulling on my brother and sister.
As we walked out, Ye Yuntang stepped forward and said to Su Shenglin, "I've been drinking and can't drive. My driver is outside; I'll have him take you to the hospital."
"good."
Su Shenglin was only wearing a shirt, which was fine indoors, but it would definitely be cold outside.
I was just thinking about where to buy him some clothes when I saw Xu Qianning walk out of the elevator. Her expression changed slightly when she saw us, and she immediately quickened her pace.
"Brother Shenglin, it's cold outside. Please wear this coat. I just bought it at the boutique downstairs." She looked at Su Shenglin earnestly and handed him the men's trench coat that was draped over her arm.
I was taken aback; it was quite unexpected.
I didn't expect her to be so observant. I didn't even know she was there. She had already taken the initiative to go downstairs and buy new clothes for Su Shenglin.
In comparison, my girlfriend seems to be neglecting her duties and only causing trouble.
But Su Shenglin didn't appreciate it. "No need, thank you, Miss Xu."
"Oh, Sheng Lin, why are you being so polite with me? It's really cold outside, you'll catch a cold if you go out like this!"
Xu Qianning insisted, and even handed the clothes directly to me.
"Jiang Wan, let Sheng Lin wear it. He'll suffer if he catches a cold."
I took the clothes, unfolded them, and said to Su Shenglin, "Put these on, it's really too cold outside."
Although I was surprised by Xu Qianning's actions, I did not object to her bringing clothes to Su Shenglin at this time.
I'm actually quite grateful.
Su Shenglin stared at me and emphasized again, "There's no need, it's just a few steps."
"You still have to wear it." I picked up the clothes and walked behind him, forcing him to put them on.
I must say, it fits perfectly.
"Qianning, thank you. I'll transfer the money to you for the clothes." I smiled politely at my arch-rival.
"No need, I bought it for Brother Shenglin." She smiled faintly, her words carrying a hint of provocation.
But after looking at the clothing brand, I had a general idea of what to expect.
As we walked toward the elevator, I turned back and said, "I've added you on WeChat, please accept my request."
Once we got into the elevator, my phone received a notification that my friend had accepted my request.
I immediately transferred 30,000 yuan to her, and it should be at least more.
Chen Muxi looked at me and deliberately asked, "Jiang Wan, other women buy clothes for my brother and even give them to him in front of you. Aren't you jealous?"
I smiled and said, "Why be jealous in a special time? I was thinking of going downstairs to buy your brother a coat to make do, but someone else did it for me. It saved me time and effort, isn't that great?"
I'm not the kind of brainless, naive girl who gets jealous and petty regardless of the situation.
Su Shenglin smiled and said, "I was hoping you'd be jealous, but you've been more generous than anyone else."
I looked at him, feeling guilty again. "You did this to protect me. Luckily, nothing serious happened. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do."
