Chapter 1389: Hospital Dispute
She knew how terrible Wei Lingnan’s lethality was and feared that he would kill someone in his rage.
As for Jiang Yu? He was purely pressed down by Wei Lingnan, and couldn’t even move voluntarily, so there wasn’t any need to shout at him to stop.
But Wei Lingnan misunderstood her meaning and thought she was pulling a biased fight, so he threw another punch. Jiang Yu snorted and bled from the corners of his mouth. Xia Yingluo was shocked senseless. If a public figure like Jiang Yu was killed in public, even Wei Lingnan would not be able to get away easily. She was so angry and anxious that she couldn’t help but come forward to pull the obstructing security guards around the two men away. She stretched out to pull on Wei Lingnan’s arm by herself. “You—”
Before her words fell, she was knocked to the ground by him.
She felt a terrible pain in her heart as if something was broken. Her head was groggy, and she collapsed and lost consciousness.
The screams at the scene rang out. “Murderer! Murderer!” Some people took out their mobile phones to take pictures, others wanted to rush to the stage to check on the situation. Those cowardly ones called the police, and those afraid of causing trouble scrambled to flee…
The scene was a huge mess.
Wei Lingnan felt his arm being pulled, and he did not turn back when he attacked, but he felt something was wrong after hitting him—behind him was not the expected security body, but a girl’s soft body. “Ah Luo!” He turned back reflexively and looked on in horror as she collapsed on the stage. Her face was thin as gold, and her breathing weakened as if it was not there. His head exploded with a bang, and he couldn’t care about Jiang Yu, who had been beaten to the ground. He hugged Xia Yingluo. “Call an ambulance! Hurry!”
The ambulance came whistling.
Wei Lingnan took her to the hospital and rushed her to the rescue room. This hospital had a relations.h.i.+p with the Wei Family Biopharmaceutical Company. After an emergency consultation, the expert group prescribed medicine and sent her to a single ward.
“Mr. Wei, your fist hurt Ms. Xia’s heart, but you can rest a.s.sured. We rescued her and she will be fine when she wakes up.” The expert group told Wei Lingnan very respectfully.
Wei Lingnan nodded and closed the door.
He untied Xia Yingluo’s s.h.i.+rt with shaking hands and saw a large bruise on her originally white chest. It looked extremely shocking. At that moment, he had aimed for her heart. It was a killing skill that the Skatana people had learned. When they were attacked suddenly, the one-kill instinct had come out in reflex. “Ah Luo… I’m sorry.” He hoa.r.s.ely apologized to her. “I didn’t expect you to be behind me.”
Looking at her lying on the hospital bed silently, he felt a chill run down his spine in fear.
A little… just a little bit.
Just a little bit and he would have broken her heart. If that was the case, it would be difficult for even G.o.d to rescue her.
“Why didn’t you avoid it…” He slowly put her s.h.i.+rt back on, his voice containing incomprehension and pain. “Even if your body is still weak and there’s not much energy left, there’s still energy in your body, right? Why didn’t you use the energy to protect yourself? If you used your energy, my attack wouldn’t have hurt you at all…”
His voice gradually lowered. He knew very well that she had done this for the World Tree.
She, like him, would rather face difficulties and dangers than dare to use her energy casually. The energy of the original World Tree was already not enough, and she was afraid it would be even worse if she used the energy.
“Is it just for the World Tree?” He stared at her. “How is that tree more important than you?” If there was any way to remove it from her body, he would rather not have that tree. He would rather remove the World Tree that the tribe vowed to protect and keep her safe instead. He pondered over this and gradually formed a plan in his heart. After her condition was stable, he would return to the base to study his plan to save her. If necessary, he would abandon the World Tree!
The ward was extremely silent.
There was only the sound of the drip.
However, the silence did not last long, and the door was opened.
Jiang Yu and Tan Ying broke in.
“How’s Yingluo?” Jiang Yu took the lead in asking, and in three or two steps, he crossed Wei Lingnan to see Yingluo.
Wei Lingnan reached out to stop him.
“Make way!” He glared at Wei Lingnan. “You hurt her, what else do you want?!”
“That’s something between me and her.” Wei Lingnan didn’t budge, and the trace of weakness he had shown by her bedside disappeared. It was replaced by the indifference of the frozen lake. “You can go out, it has nothing to do with you.”
“Why doesn’t it have anything to do with me? She agreed to my proposal!” Jiang Yu sneered. His face was still covered with blood, and his white suit looked like a mess from a horror movie. Just now at the scene of the fan meeting, after Wei Lingnan took Xia Yingluo to the hospital, Jiang Yu and Tan Ying immediately chased after them and arrived at the hospital as well. Once they reached the hospital, it was too late for Jiang Yu to bandage himself and he came to find Xia Yingluo’s ward as soon as possible.
Wei Lingnan looked at his bloodstained body. “You want to marry her with your mere combat skills?”
In the Skatana Planet, Jiang Yu’s combat power couldn’t even rank as the last soldier. Marry the queen? It was just an idiot’s dreaming.
Wei Lingnan looked at him disdainfully, as if he were looking at a lowly creature.
Jiang Yu was furious. “What’s wrong with my combat power? Yes, I couldn’t win over you, but what period is it already, so what if you won over me? Barbarian, now is not the time to compete over combat skills! You should look at your own ident.i.ty! You’re just a small boss of a second-rate company, how dare you compete with me?”
Jiang Yu sneered. He saw Wei Lingnan’s sullen face and continued to say, “I am the great film king of several years and the star of the world. I can give Yingluo the best, but what about you? Wei Lingnan, what can you give her? Power? Money? Status? No! You have nothing but your brute force, and there’s nothing you can give! Any random giant in this city could suppress you! Make you unable to stand up!”
Wei Lingnan looked at him coldly.
Tan Ying frowned imperceptibly. He always felt that Jiang Yu was putting himself in danger by angering the man.
“Mr. Jiang, since Yingluo is okay, you should bandage your wound first. Don’t affect her rest.” Tan Ying stepped forward and separated Jiang Yu and Wei Lingnan.
Wei Lingnan gave him a meaningful look.
Only then did Jiang Yu realize that he was affecting Xia Yingluo, but he refused to leave immediately and said to Wei Lingnan, “You, the culprit of hurting Yingluo, should go out with us too. I’m not a.s.sured to leave you alone with her. Who knows if you will harm her again?”
Wei Lingnan sneered, but he turned around and walked out of the ward.
