Qiao Jiusheng was deliberately acting coquettishly. Fang Yusheng was not stupid, so he naturally felt it. Hearing her soft voice, Fang Yusheng calmed down.
However, he had to endure it and not hurt Ah Sheng and the little princess.
“I’m a little thirsty,” Qiao Jiusheng said.
Fang Yusheng said, “I’ll buy you water immediately.”
Not far from the ma.s.sage shop was a small supermarket. Fang Yusheng pushed open the car door again and took a step out. He said to Qiao Jiusheng, “Wait for me here. I’ll go buy water.”
“…Okay.”
Fang Yusheng went to the small shop and took a bottle of mineral water. The manager said, “This is for five yuan.”
“Yes.”
Fang Yusheng reached into his pocket and found nothing. Only then did he remember that he had forgotten to take his wallet.
He turned around and shouted at Qiao Jiusheng, “Ah Sheng, help me get my wallet.”
“Oh!” Qiao Jiusheng pushed open the backseat door. She had just gotten out of the car and had yet to take out her foot when a piercing pain came from her right thigh bone. Qiao Jiusheng screamed, “Ah!” Her body suddenly fell to the ground.
Fang Yusheng’s expression changed as he watched Qiao Jiusheng fall to the ground.
“Ah Sheng!”
His legs almost turned to jelly.
Fang Yusheng ran over in one breath and carried Qiao Jiusheng. Qiao Jiusheng was lying on the ground face down. Fang Yusheng knelt beside her and saw that the back of her thigh was bleeding. He suddenly looked up at the building opposite him and saw a silver flash.
There was a killer!
Fang Yusheng hugged Qiao Jiusheng and hid behind the car.
He heard two popping sounds on the car. It was the sound of a bullet hitting the car seat.
After a while, the commotion stopped.
Fang Yusheng did not dare to carry Qiao Jiusheng up. They were still hiding in their usual place. Fang Yusheng took out his phone and called 120 before calling the police. Finally, he called Qi Bufan.
“Sir.” Qi Bufan seemed to be very busy and sounded a little breathless.
Fang Yusheng said, “We met a killer.”
Qi Bufan quickly asked, “How are you guys now?”
“Ah Sheng…” Fang Yusheng looked down at Qiao Jiusheng and noticed that she was bleeding between her legs. His heart tightened and his voice turned hoa.r.s.e.” She’s bleeding. There’s so much blood… ”
“Sir, I’ll be right there!”
Fang Yusheng hung up the phone and touched the s.p.a.ce between Qiao Jiusheng’s legs. He picked up his hand, and his palm and fingers were covered in blood.
“No!”
His face turned completely pale. He shouted, “Ah Sheng, Ah Sheng, endure it. You’ll be fine!”
Qiao Jiusheng gripped Fang Yusheng’s s.h.i.+rt tightly.
She could still hold back her emotions when she was avoiding the gun just now. Now that the danger was over, Qiao Jiusheng panicked completely. She knew her situation. There was a high chance that she would not be able to keep the child. She grabbed Fang Yusheng’s clothes tightly and begged him, “Yusheng, nothing can happen to the child. Nothing can happen to the child!”
Fang Yusheng quickly replied, “Okay! Nothing will happen to the child. I promise.”
The bullet hit her bone, and Qiao Jiusheng’s breathing was painful. She said to Fang Yusheng, “It’s too late for the ambulance. Take me to the hospital.”
“Okay!”
Fang Yusheng didn’t dare to sit in his car anymore. He hailed a taxi by the roadside and drove himself towards Deep Sea Hospital. The taxi driver followed Fang Yusheng’s instructions and called Wei Shuyi.
When Wei Shuyi received the call, he immediately prepared an elite emergency team and waited at the entrance of the hospital with the doctors and nurses.
From the ma.s.sage shop to Deep Sea Hospital, it usually took at least an hour to drive there. However, today, Fang Yusheng ignored the traffic rules and drove the fastest. It only took him thirty minutes. He stopped the car and saw Wei Shuyi. He said to him in a trembling voice, “Old Wei, Brother Wei, you must save Ah Sheng and our child!”
He begged Wei Shuyi as he opened the back door.
Qiao Jiusheng lay in the backseat with a round object under her b.u.t.t. This could slow down the bleeding.
There was no redness on her charming face. She was in so much pain that she frowned and grabbed her clothes tightly. Fang Yusheng opened the car door and carried her. As he comforted Qiao Jiusheng, he said, “Ah Sheng, don’t be afraid. You and the child will be fine.”
He was consoling her, but his face was as pale as wax.
Qiao Jiusheng held Fang Yusheng’s clothes tightly and did not speak.
Panic, fear, and heartache wrapped around Qiao Jiusheng. She imprinted Fang Yusheng’s pale face in her mind. A voice in her heart shouted, “She must live on with the child. If she can’t hold on, this man won’t be able to either.”
Qiao Jiusheng endured the pain and said to Fang Yusheng with a trembling voice, “I’m fine. It doesn’t hurt. Yusheng, calm down.”
Fang Yusheng pursed his lips and remained silent.
She was so seriously injured, how could it not hurt!
“Little liar!” Fang Yusheng gritted his teeth and scolded Qiao Jiusheng before placing her gently on the bed. The nurse pushed Qiao Jiusheng into the elevator. Wei Shuyi patted Yusheng’s shoulder and said, “I’ve found the best obstetrician and surgeon in our hospital. Calm down.”
Fang Yusheng remained silent.
Wei Shuyi turned around and strode into another elevator. He had to go to the emergency room to guard it.
Fang Yusheng was the last to enter the other elevator. He leaned against the elevator wall and touched his face with his hand. It felt sticky. Fang Yusheng spread his hands and looked down at his b.l.o.o.d.y hands. His hands were trembling, and the trembling was especially big.
As if agitated by something, Fang Yusheng suddenly squatted down slowly against the elevator wall and sobbed hysterically.
The elevator went up and down a few times, and a few people went in and out. Fang Yusheng never went out. When the patients’ families saw him crying in the elevator, although they did not know what had happened to him, they felt their hearts ache.
In this hospital, family members could always be seen hugging each other and crying. After a long time, everyone was used to it.
Fang Yusheng stayed in the elevator for more than half an hour before arriving outside the emergency room.
There were other family members outside the emergency room, all looking worried. Fang Yusheng stood outside the operating theater and saw the door open. A lady in a nurse’s uniform walked out. Everyone rushed up like a swarm of bees, wanting to care about the patient inside.
As the nurse walked, she said, “I’m in charge of that pregnant woman. Your family members are not under my control.” In other words, they had mistaken her for someone else.
When Fang Yusheng heard this, he quickly chased after her. He followed behind the nurse and did not disturb her anxious footsteps.
He asked the nurse, “How’s the pregnant woman?”
“It’s quite serious. The gunshot wound in the leg is bleeding badly. The fetus shows signs of miscarriage. The v.a.g.i.n.al bleeding is worse.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Yusheng’s mind was blank and he almost fainted.
