Shen Yunfei was already at a disadvantage against Wu Xin, and with the injury from a few days ago not yet healed, one hit from Wu Xin sent him staggering backward uncontrollably.
Just then, Lian Qingqing was standing right beside him. Shen Yunfei, caught off guard, toppled over, crushing Lian Qingqing who had no chance to react.
Lian Qingqing was still holding a teacup. The teacup crashed to the ground with a clang, and as her wrist flicked upward, it landed right on the shattered cup.
The ceramic cup, now broken into sharp fragments, sliced into Lian Qingqing’s wrist, and blood spurted out. In an instant, a pool of deep red blood spread across the floor.
"Qingqing."
Shen Yunfei struggled to his feet, and as his hand was close to where Lian Qingqing lay, he felt the stickiness. Glancing over, his face instantly turned pale at the sight of the crimson blood, carrying the stench of iron, overwhelming him with panic.
When Lian Qingqing saw the extent of the bleeding from her wrist, she promptly fainted.
Shen Yunfei didn’t dare touch her. He looked palely at Lian Qingqing, shocked. Having been pampered since birth, the things he did most were spending money and flirting with pretty girls. He had never witnessed such a bloody scene.
"Stop the bleeding first," Wu Xin reacted quickly, rushing back into the house to grab a piece of cotton cloth. He lifted Lian Qingqing’s arm above the bleeding and bound it tightly.
Tang Yue, hearing the commotion, also came out.
Lian Qingyang was trying to get some sleep, but hearing the unusual noise outside, he rushed out to see Lian Qingqing lying on the ground amidst the broken tiles. He ran up to her, lifted her in his arms, and yelled at Shen Yunfei, "Aren’t you going to drive?"
"Right, right, drive." Shen Yunfei ran back to find the keys, but in his everyday life, with several cars around, the keys were carelessly thrown about. He couldn’t find them immediately, and belongings were scattered all over the house in the search.
Tang Yue and Wu Xin exchanged a glance and followed suit.
While starting the car, Shen Yunfei’s hands were shaking, and he had no idea how to drive. He even forgot that he knew how to drive, his limbs clueless on what to do.
Seeing the situation, Wu Xin pulled Shen Yunfei aside and took over the driving.
Panicked, Shen Yunfei hurriedly sat in the passenger seat. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Silence filled the car.
Lian Qingyang held Lian Qingqing, and even though the area above her wrist was tied up, blood from earlier still dripped onto his body, and some continued to flow out steadily. Although he didn’t like Lian Qingqing, he truly didn’t want her to die.
Wu Xin drove very fast, running red lights all the way to the hospital.
As soon as the car door opened, Lian Qingyang carried Lian Qingqing and rushed into the emergency room. Because the injury was to the wrist, the doctors mistook it for a suicide attempt. While muttering about disregard for life, they quickly wheeled her into the emergency room.
"Qingyang, she’ll be safe and sound," Tang Yue stepped forward to comfort him.
"Sister Xiao Yue, I, I don’t want anything to happen to her."
Lian Qingyang looked at the blood on his pajamas, his heart filled with unease and discomfort. Even though he disliked what Lian Qingqing had done over the years, she was still his sister. He hoped she would change for the better, hoping for her safety and happiness.
