Chapter 325: All in the Hospital
After tossing and turning all night, Liu Lan ended up admitting herself to the hospital.
The two slaps from Su Maolin were not a stand-in during filming, they hit Liu Lan's face solidly. At first, Liu Lan just had a little blood in her mouth, which flowed out from the corners of her mouth. After she wiped it clean, Zhou Budai and others didn't notice it.
About three minutes later, the police came, handcuffed Su Maolin, and took him to the police car. Zhou Budai watched the police car leave and turned around to find that the right side of Liu Lan's face suddenly swelled up. He was shocked and quickly called a doctor to help check the situation.
So Liu Lan underwent blood tests, brain CT scans, full-body bone X-rays... many more items than a usual physical examination.
Liu Lan thought she was fine, but after all these checks, she was exhausted and sick. Finally, the doctor confirmed that Liu Lan only had injuries on her face - skin injuries from being beaten, plus a slight tinnitus in her ears, which was not serious.
When Yu Zhan heard the news, he hurried back and saw Liu Lan sitting in the infusion room, one hand on an IV drip and her head against the wall asleep.
The blood clots were now concentrated in the wound, causing the right half of her face to swell up. Her complexion was not very good. There was no blood color anywhere except the swollen part. Even her lips were light pink. Her long eyelashes kept trembling, as if she was not restful even in her sleep.
Liu Lan was indeed having a nightmare. She kept replaying in her mind how she was molested and beaten by Su Maolin. The calmer she appeared at the time, the more scared she was inside.
At the most critical moment of the dream, she actually felt Yu Zhan holding her hand, and there was a soft touch on her forehead. He was kissing her. She clearly felt the temperature of Yu Zhan's palm, and the warmth spread from her fingertips to her limbs, feeling a bit like an electric shock.
...
...
She suddenly opened her eyes and met a pair of gentle eyes. She called softly, "Ah Zhan."
Yu Zhan held her in his arms and patted her on the back.
"Go back to sleep."
"Um."
Liu Lan slowly closed her eyes and leaned in Yu Zhan's arms. His arms were so comfortable that she fell asleep again after a while. This time she did not have a nightmare.
After the drip was finished, Yu Zhan asked a doctor in the hospital to arrange a bed for her so that she could stay in the hospital for observation.
After Su Yi had a good sleep, he learned from a phone call that Liu Lan was in danger in the hospital. He had high blood pressure at the time and even medicine could not suppress it. The hotel hurriedly called an ambulance and sent him to the hospital.
Finally, Su Yi was also hospitalized.
Su Maolin's incident caused a big stir and alarmed the traditional media. After dawn, the mainstream newspapers in the ancient capital reported the news. Later, the TV station also came to the hospital for an interview, and after that, the Internet was full of related reports.
The various media outlets were all-powerful and had a thorough investigation into Su Maolin's background. They also followed the clues to uncover Su Xuezhen's secrets.
What Su Xuezhen did at the calligraphy exhibition was made public, and this time the Calligraphy Association was unable to suppress the matter.
Although Xizhen Academy was closed for rectification, some parents were not aware of the specific situation. They were waiting for the academy to resume business and continue to send their children to learn calligraphy. Su Maolin was one of the teachers of these children. It is conceivable that these parents were very upset after seeing the news. They were very scared when they thought that a criminal who intentionally injured others and premeditated rapist had taught their children. The reputation of Xizhen Academy was completely ruined.
At the same time, the news that Liu Lan was kidnapped and nearly raped spread across the Internet at lightning speed. Her fans were very worried about her and left messages on her Weibo, asking about her situation.
Not only that, the process of Wu Qu's serious injury and Zhou Budai's witty rescue was also known to netizens. Since the three were winners of the calligraphy exhibition, the calligraphy exhibition that had already ended was discussed again, especially the winning works of the three, "Beauty in the Golden House", "Innocence" and "Western Regions", which were very popular on the Internet.
Artworks themselves are priceless. If they want to enter the commercial circulation field, they need to be hyped. On that day, many wealthy people called the Ancient Capital Exhibition Center and the National Calligraphy Association to inquire about how to book and purchase the works of the three of them. The answer they got was that "The Western Region" has been collected by the state and cannot be purchased, while "Golden House Hidden Beauty" and "Innocent" are on sale, but the specific purchase method has not yet been determined. Even so, there are already hundreds of names registered for pre-purchase in advance, and the first one is Yu Zhan's name.
Wu Qu woke up at noon that day. He had some sequelae of brain trauma. For example, when he saw Liu Lan and others, he recalled for a long time before he remembered their names. For example, he didn't remember what happened after he checked out of the hotel that night. If Su Maolin knew about it, he would probably regret it to death.
