Chapter 166: Master Is Hurt
Just when Li Meng was about to say something, Mu Huan received a call.
Seeing that it was from the Bao residence, she quickly accepted the call.
The housekeeper’s voice could be heard from the other end. “Madam, Master is hurt. Can you go to the hospital right now?”
The girl’s mind drew a blank the moment she heard that the man was hurt.
She finally recomposed herself after a while and hastily asked, “Which hospital is that? How bad is his injury?”
After she put down the phone, she rushed to the hospital without delay.
Watching her back disappearing from her sight, faster than any other time she had run, Li Meng could not doubt Bao Junyan’s status in Mu Huan’s heart now. This recognition made her bestie worried for her.
If the two of them could not stay together after she gave her heart to her husband, her friend would be so heartbroken!
The protagonist rushed all the way to the hospital.
When she saw that not only was his leg injured, but his handsome face had suffered bruises as well, she lost it!
Who dared to harm my hubby?!
Das.h.i.+ng up to him, she cried, “Hubby, who did this to you? Tell me, I’ll make sure they are better off dead than alive!”
Just now, the housekeeper had told her that he and his gang were attacked on their way home, and the man was injured when he tried to protect Gong Zeye.
Regardless of who had done this to her husband, she would find a way to make them suffer!
Again, the man was too stunned for words.
What did their docile, quiet, and obedient sister-in-law just utter?
She would make sure these people were better off dead than alive?
They initially thought that their frail and timid sister-in-law would go weak in the knees with fear when confronted with their chief’s injuries. Turned out that she’d be as hot and excitable as a red-hot chilli!
Wow!
One could not judge a book by its cover!
Nevertheless, this was a pleasant surprise. Such a little sister-in-law would be better than a crybaby!
The girl was so upset that she did not realize that she was revealing her true self. Walking up to the bed, she cupped the man’s face in her palms and lamented, “Your face was badly beaten up. What are we going to do if they leave scars behind? Your face will be disfigured!”
If she found any scars on her husband’s perfect, G.o.d-like face, she would make sure they die a horrible death!
Again, the man was too stunned for words.
Why is she making such a fuss over a scar? A man need not be bothered with such trivialities!
“Hubby, how’s your leg?” Her hands went to his leg to check out his injuries.
“These are minor injuries. I’ll be fine after some rest.”
She was relieved to hear that from him. Taking her attention away from his leg, her hands moved to his face once more. Her eyes turned red with tears as she cupped his face in her palms. “Who did this to you? I’m going to teach them a lesson!”
The more the man spent time with his wife, the more he realized that she was not as quiet and submissive as he had reckoned initially. She was definitely not a timid girl, but still, her reaction to his injuries was totally unexpected.
He knew that a person could lose their rationality when they were overly agitated. And then, the realization that her heartache and aggravation at his injuries had prompted her sudden and fierce outburst sent a surge of warmth into his hardened heart.
He waved to signal the rest to leave the room and then pulled the girl onto the bed. Hugging her by her waist, he said, “Those people are no more.”
He was a man fully capable of taking care of himself. There was no need for his wifey to exact revenge for him.
She choked on her words as she looked at him. “Hubby…”
Actually, she did not know what was happening to her either. Why was she so upset to see him injured? Why was she so furious as to want to kill these people? Why… was she so disturbed that she wanted to burst into tears?
“I’m fine, don’t worry.” He dipped his head and planted a quick kiss on her forehead.
She hugged him tight without saying a word.
