No matter how smart and brave the Tian Xiner was, she was still only 18 years old. When she suddenly saw a burly man holding a knife fiercely rushing towards her in the dark of the night, she didn't know how to react and stood there in a daze.
It wasn't until Tong Che was hit by the knife that she woke up from her dream and shouted for help.
Yun Laohu and Mi Xaing 'er were reading at home when they heard someone calling for help. As a soldier, he had a strong sense of responsibility and was agile. He immediately rushed out of the room and ran towards the direction of the call for help.
Mi Xaing 'er followed closely behind. The two of them looked around and saw that the Tong siblings were in danger.
Yun Jingting didn't hesitate and rushed over. Although his leg was injured, he was still a hero who had risked his life on the battlefield. As long as he made a move, the average person wouldn't be a match for him.
He didn't take the masked man seriously at first, but after exchanging a few moves, he couldn't help but be surprised. He felt that the other party's punches and kicks were methodical and steady. It was obvious that the other party was a "martial artist" and didn't seem like an ordinary thief.
Yun Jingting calmed himself down and started exchanging blows with the other party seriously. The two of them only exchanged three to five rounds before the man knew that he had encountered a tough opponent.
An expert could tell whether or not he was strong as soon as he stretched out his hand.
He knew in his heart that the man in front of him was like a wolf or a tiger. He wasn't a match for him at all.
He stole a glance and saw a few more neighbors coming out of the alley. He didn't dare to delay any longer. He quickly feinted and raised his arm. He might as well cut off all means of retreat. The switchblade flew out of his hand and went straight for Yun Jingting's face.
Yun Laohu snorted coldly. He steadied himself and leaned his upper body to the side, easily dodging the knife. With a "bang" sound, the switchblade stabbed into a tree by the roadside. Half of the blade went into the tree, and the handle of the switchblade was still vibrating. It was obvious that the force was great.
Yun Jingting seized the opportunity to grab the other party's arm. Taking advantage of the situation, she hooked and twisted the other party's entire arm behind his back. Then, she kneed his calf and directly pressed him to half-kneel on the ground.
At this moment, he suddenly heard the Tian Xiner's heart-wrenching scream. "Brother, brother, what's wrong with you? Open your eyes and look at me!"
His voice was mournful, especially ear-piercing in the night.
Yun Jingting was worried about Tong Che, so she turned her head slightly. His leg injury had not fully recovered, and his strength was not as good as usual. With her distraction, the man took the opportunity to struggle for a while and scrambled out of Yun Laohu's grasp. He stumbled out of the alley.
Yun Jingting wanted to give chase.
Mi Xining 'er was worried that her husband would be at a disadvantage in the night, so she hurriedly called out to him.
Yun Laohu stopped and returned to his wife's side. He looked down and saw that Tong Che was already paralyzed on the ground. His chest and back were soaked in blood, and his clothes were sticking to his body. The wound on his forehead was especially shocking. It barely missed his right eye, and blood flowed all over his face, covering his originally handsome facial features.
The Tian Xiner half-knelt beside him. As the saying goes, one's concern makes one's mind chaotic. She was already in tears.
Mi Xining 'er was concerned about her husband. She looked up and carefully sized him up. The first thing she said was, "Are you okay?"
Yun Laohu shook his head and felt that it was a pity. "My leg is still not very convenient. I almost let that person escape."
His actions were a little strange as he stuffed one hand into his trouser pocket.
Mi Xining 'er immediately noticed it and frowned. "Are you really not injured? Let me take a look at your hand."
Yun Laohu took his hand out of his trouser pocket and showed it to his wife. It was indeed intact!
Mi Xining 'er was relieved. "Tiger, go and flag down a car. Let's send Brother Tong to the hospital first, then we'll call the police!"
She casually pointed at the switchblade on the tree. "Keep this first and hand it over to the police as evidence. Remember, try not to leave any fingerprints!"
Yun Laohu was a veteran. How could he not know how to deal with the aftermath?
However, he did not expect his wife to be able to command everything so calmly under such circumstances. He was impressed, but he did not say a word and ran out of the alley to flag down a car.
Not long after, a semi-motorized donkey came. In that era, it was considered lucky to see such a car pass by at night.
Everyone hurriedly carried Tong Che to the back of the car. Because the back of the car was too small, only Yun Jingting went up to take care of him. The chauffeur jumped up high and kicked the motor hard twice, and the car went straight to the hospital.
Mi Xining 'er and Tian Xiner followed behind.
Little Tian Xin's face was pale, and her hands were trembling. She looked at Mi Xining 'er blankly. "Xiang' er, will my brother be okay?"
Mi Xining 'er put an arm around her shoulders and comforted her. "Don't worry, he'll be fine. Brother Tong is blessed by the heavens."
Tian Xiner seemed to be mumbling to herself. "Right? My brother is blessed by the heavens. Nothing will happen to him. My mother said that he will be conferred the title of Prime Minister and live until 88!"
Mi Xiang 'er went along with her words. "Of course, what you said to your mother won't be wrong."
She thought about it and deliberately distracted her so that she would not be too sad. "Xiner, what happened just now? Tell me what happened."
Tian Xiner's lips trembled as she recounted the incident. "That's what happened. The person hit me with a brick, then jumped out and stabbed me with a knife. My brother rushed over …"
Mi Xining 'er did not wait for her to finish. "So the culprit was only attacking you?"
Tian Xiner thought about it seriously and nodded. "That seems to be the case. Probably because I'm a woman, the culprit thought that I was easy to deal with. Anyway, my brother was stabbed several times because he was protecting me!"
Mi Xining 'er pondered for a moment. "The culprit didn't say anything. It was like he asked you to take out your wallets or something."
"He didn't say anything. He suddenly jumped out. I feel like he had been hiding there for a long time."
Mi Xining 'er did not ask any more questions.
She held Tian Xiner's hand tightly. "Don't worry. Yun Jingting and I are still here. We will always be by your side!"
The two of them entered the hospital and turned into the lobby. The door of the emergency room was tightly shut. Only the incandescent light above the door, which said "In Emergency", was lit faintly. The pale light was accompanied by a few red words, which gave them a feeling of loneliness and desolation.
Yun Laohu was sitting on a bench in the corridor. There were a few patches of dried blood on the front of her shirt. Although Mi Xining 'er knew that she was not injured, her heart still thumped when she saw the blood.
This was human nature. No matter how strong a person was, they would not be able to remain calm when their family members were injured.
When Yun Jingting saw the two of them, she immediately stood up and greeted them. "I've called the police. The police will be here soon. I've already settled the emergency fees and admission procedures. I'm afraid we don't have enough money. Xiang 'er, you can go home and get some money later. Also, I've asked the doctor. Brother Tong's injuries did not affect his internal organs.
He should be fine. "He paused for a moment." I've also informed my second sister. She will be here soon. "
Yun Jingting was really calm. In such a short period of time, she had already arranged everything in an orderly manner.
When Tian Xiner heard that his life was not in danger, it was as if the tension in her body had snapped. She sat down on the bench, covered her face with her hands, and started sobbing softly.
Mi Xining 'er and her husband looked at each other. Neither of them knew how to comfort her. They could only sit by her side and accompany her silently.
In the quiet corridor of the hospital, the few of them had different thoughts.
After a while.
The police arrived.
They asked about the incident seriously. Xiao Tian Xin told them everything in detail. Yun Jingting stood by the side and listened attentively. He frowned and pursed his lips. No one knew what he was thinking.
After the investigation …
Yun Laohu handed the switchblade to the police. "This is the weapon I pulled out from the tree. I've been wrapping it in a handkerchief. You should be able to find the fingerprints on it."
The police took the switchblade. "Thank you for your cooperation. Also …"
Before he could finish his sentence …
They heard the sound of rushing footsteps in the corridor. In the blink of an eye, Yun Jingqi rushed over. Her footsteps were a little shaky, her face was as pale as a sheet, and her lips were bloodless.
She did not greet anyone and immediately pounced on her brother. She grabbed Yun Laohu's arms as if she needed strength to support her body. "How … how is Tong Che?"
Yun Jingting quickly comforted her. "Sister, don't worry. The doctor said that his life is not in danger. He's just treating his wound now."
Yun Jingqi asked anxiously, "What exactly happened?"
Yun Laohu's voice was low. He quickly looked around at the people around him. "I thought this incident was premeditated."
When he said this, even the police were a little stunned.
