Half of Yu Zhouzhou's body was hidden in the shadows at the entrance of the emergency room. The coat she was wearing was tattered, revealing half of her smooth and fair shoulders, which were covered with red scratches.
Tears fell to the ground, but there was no sound.
"Zhouzhou, are you hurt anywhere?" Jiang Yansheng asked nervously. She carefully walked to Yu Zhouzhou's side and quickly took off her coat to put on Yu Zhouzhou.
When she got closer, she could see clearly that Zhouzhou did not have any serious injuries, and the blood on her clothes was probably not hers.
Jiang Yansheng's heart, which had been in her throat, finally calmed down.
Yu Zhouzhou was about the same height as her. She stretched out her hands and could barely hold half of her shoulders.
Feeling the person in her arms trembling unconsciously, Jiang Yansheng's eyes darkened.
She patted Yu Zhouzhou's stiff back.
"It's okay, Zhouzhou. I'm here. Don't be afraid."
Yu Zhouzhou nodded. She wiped away her tears, and her voice was much calmer than before.
"I didn't want to see Minglang from the beginning, so I went to the park that I used to play in. In fact, there were quite a lot of people in the park, but five or six men appeared out of nowhere. They tied my hands and dragged me into the alley. I kept screaming, and the man even strangled my neck …"
It was the first time that Yu Zhouzhou experienced something like this. Her eyes were red and swollen, and she began to cry again after a while.
Jiang Yansheng wiped his hands on his clothes and wanted to wipe away Yu Zhouzhou's tears. Gu Yan, who was standing silently next to him, suddenly handed him a napkin.
Jiang Yansheng was stunned. He thanked him softly and passed the napkin to Yu Zhouzhou.
Yu Zhouzhou sobbed and began to hiccup. She placed her hands on her chest anxiously. Only the sudden arrival of Jiang Yansheng and the warmth that surrounded her slowly brought her back to reality.
Tears soaked the tissue. "I don't know where those people came from. They even know … know my name. Then I thought if I was … I'd rather die. Fu Minglang suddenly appeared, but those people had knives in their hands. I called the police, but the police didn't come. No one came at all."
"Why didn't anyone come to save us?"
"When Minglang fell to the ground, those people thought that someone had died, so they left …"
Yu Zhouzhou's face was pale from crying. Jiang Yansheng didn't know how to comfort him. She gently patted Yu Zhouzhou's back and whispered, "It's all over. Don't be afraid."
The door of the emergency room was suddenly pushed open. A doctor wearing a white mask walked out quickly and asked coldly, "Who's the family member?"
Yu Zhouzhou rushed out of her arms and stood in front of the doctor. She said in a muffled voice, "I am … I'm the family member."
Jiang Yansheng looked at her thin body wrapped in clothes and pursed her lips.
Today, Fu Minglang risked his life to save Yu Zhouzhou. In her heart, she changed a little bit of her opinion of this street gangster.
But people couldn't be so stupid and bad.
The doctor looked down and flipped through the paper. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yu Zhouzhou. He took out a piece of paper and gave it to her. "The patient is still in a coma. It may take three or four days for him to wake up."
"He has a slight concussion and both his hands are broken. He needs to be hospitalized for a while. Arrange a ward immediately. Family member, please pay the fee first. "
Jiang Yansheng walked to the side. "Give me the bill. You can go in and see him first."
Yu Zhouzhou looked at her seriously. "Yansheng, thank you."
She looked at Gu Yan, who was following behind Jiang Yansheng. Her throat moved, but she didn't say anything.
Jiang Yansheng smiled. "Why do you need to thank me?"
She also needed to thank God that Fu Minglang could rush over to save him today.
…
At night, the hospital was empty. Except for the busy emergency room, the other departments were very quiet. Jiang Yansheng's high heels made a crisp sound. She could vaguely smell the mixed scent of men's tobacco.
She heaved a sigh of relief when the doctor said that neither of them had any fatal problems.
She put the coat on Yu Zhouzhou. A cool breeze blew through the corridor.
She suddenly sneezed.
The next second, the warm coat covered her body.
Jiang Yansheng lifted her head. She was puzzled. Gu Ran was dressed in black, and his eyes were pitch-black as well. But somehow, there seemed to be some part of his body that was glowing.
Gu Yan helped her put on the coat. "There are two patients inside. Don't catch a cold."
Jiang Yansheng shrugged. "I'm not cold. You don't have to do that."
Gu Yan smiled faintly. "I'm a little cold. Can you take it off and give it back to me?"
Jiang Yansheng pulled the sleeve nervously with one hand. "I don't know why I can't take it off …"
She leaned against the marble table and waited for the nurse at the window to stamp it. Gu Yan suddenly said behind her, "Is the security in Jingcheng so bad? It's only nine o 'clock now. "
Jiang Yansheng asked, "What do you mean?"
"Did your friend get into trouble for someone to target him? Didn't you hear her say that five or six men could say her name? "
Jiang Yansheng frowned and thought. "She … she shouldn't have made enemies with others. You can see that she has always been gentle. She can't even win a quarrel."
Gu Yan asked, "What about her parents?"
Jiang Yansheng was silent for a moment. She looked at Gu Ran and sighed. "Actually, she has already fallen out with her family because of her boyfriend. She has now moved out. It's likely that she hasn't contacted her family for a few years now."
"Her name is Yu Zhouzhou?" Gu Yan thought for a while. "I seem to have met her parents when I was at a dinner party. Her family's company is quite big."
Jiang Yansheng exhaled lightly, "Yeah, it's similar to mine, but Fu Minglang and the son-in-law her parents are looking for are completely different. Back then, her mother hardened her heart and locked her at home, saying that she would wait for a period of time for Fu Minglang to give up on herself."
"What happened in the end? She jumped down from the second floor and hurt her leg. Her knees still hurt on rainy days. "
Jiang Yansheng didn't smile. She turned to look at Gu Yan. "Do you think it's worth it?"
Why was it so difficult and bitter to love someone?
Gu Ran stopped in his tracks. He had one hand on the wall and his chest was leaning over. The two of them were very close. "Jiang Yansheng, do you not know anything about love?"
Jiang Yansheng was silent for a moment. She reached out and pressed his shoulder. "Gu Yan, you don't understand me."
In her eyes, money and power were all ranked before love.
…
Jiang Yansheng said that she wanted to stay in the ward to accompany Yu Zhouzhou.
She was worried about leaving Yu Zhouzhou alone.
Yu Zhouzhou had regained most of her senses. She looked at Gu Yan with some embarrassment. "I've already caused too much trouble for you. I was too anxious just now, so I called you. If it were now, I definitely wouldn't have asked you to come over."
The ward was a luxurious single room. The bed was big enough, but there weren't enough chairs.
Gu Yan stood there with his long arms and legs. Jiang Yansheng turned to look at him and asked him to go out.
After Gu Yan went out, Yu Zhouzhou heaved a sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said softly, "Yansheng, isn't that your ex-husband?"
Jiang Yansheng had explained the problem more than three or four times. She had a headache the moment she heard it. She rubbed the space between her eyebrows. "We haven't divorced yet."
She paused and didn't add the word 'soon'.
Yu Zhouzhou suddenly understood. "It's so late. Why are you still with him?"
Jiang Yansheng said vaguely, "I ran into something earlier. It just so happened that I don't have a car, so I asked him to give me a lift when I came over."
Fu Minglang, who was lying on the bed, groaned. He didn't wake up, but his eyebrows were knitted together.
Yu Zhouzhou quickly stood up. When she saw that the IV drip had flowed back, she quickly adjusted the angle of the IV bottle.
Jiang Yansheng looked at Fu Minglang. Even if this guy closed his eyes, she could see that he was surrounded by a shadow.
She sighed and asked, "Did you two have a fight before?"
Yu Zhouzhou turned around under the flickering light and blinked. "It's not just a fight. I've actually made up my mind to break up with him."
Jiang Yansheng frowned. She had told Fu Minglang the correct address before, so it should be correct.
Yu Zhouzhou stood up and put a pillow under Fu Minglang's head to make him more comfortable. She couldn't tell what she was feeling in her eyes.
"But I was standing outside the emergency room alone just now. I didn't know if he was dead or alive inside. I suddenly understood that nothing else was important. I just wanted this person. I wanted to see him every day, healthy and alive. "
She sat back down. "Yansheng, you never knew why I turned from a good boy who studied hard to a bad girl who fell in love at a young age, right?"
Jiang Yansheng nodded.
"At that time, my parents didn't let me go to an elite school with you. They only let me go to an ordinary high school. They had good intentions, but the things I brought to school were very expensive. Some people formed small groups to isolate me. At first, it was fine. Later, they even robbed my things and sold them for money. When they realized that they could be sold at a very high price, I started a long high school life.
"I had to be on guard every day. I didn't know when the things in my bag would be snatched away and I would get beaten up.
"My parents were on a business trip. I went to find my form teacher, but she didn't believe me. When they realized that I was resisting, they found some hooligans to teach me a lesson. Who knew that the hooligans were quite good-looking. "
Yu Zhouzhou, who had been in a state of panic for the whole night, suddenly chuckled. She seemed to be reminiscing about the good things that happened in the past. "I was blocked in the alley, and I was so scared. When he saw me, he told me, 'Just you wait.'"
"At that time, I thought he was going to teach me a lesson. In the end, the moment I closed my eyes, he beat up all his underlings. He turned to me and said, 'No one will bully you anymore. If you promise to be my girlfriend, I'll take you to bully others.'
Yu Zhouzhou turned back to look at the bed. There was a band-aid on the bridge of his nose. In the dark, his handsome face could not be hidden. She said in a low voice, "I told him that I don't want to bully others, but I want to be your girlfriend."
She had always thought that there was no escape. There would always be a price to pay. She would either be robbed or beaten up.
However, nine years ago, she saw the boy who thought he was handsome in tattered clothes smile at her.
