Chapter 134: Chapter 134: I Will Go Myself Chapter 134: Chapter 134: I Will Go Myself After ten minutes, Li Xue realized sothing was off. Her first reaction was that the driver was taking a detour. She could only remind him not to overdo it; after all, her life was in soone else’s hands, and provoking him wouldn’t be wise.
“Driver, you’re taking the wrong road,” she said.
“No mistake,” he replied.
“I’ve been to my ho many tis before. I’m very familiar with the route,” Li Xue stated.
The driver remained silent as the route increasingly strayed from the usual path.
Li Xue did not realize that sothing was amiss.
The taxi driver looked quite young, with a montary shadow crossing his face.
She then glanced at the driver’s work ID on the windshield, and the picture on it was not of the sa person at all.
Li Xue stealthily took out her phone from her bag, preparing to call the police.
But abruptly, the driver slamd on the brakes—
“Ah!” Li Xue was thrown against the front seat, and her phone fell to the floor.
After steadying herself, she imdiately searched for her phone under the seat.
The driver got out of his seat, opened the rear door, and yanked Li Xue out—
“Ah! Let go of ! You’re breaking the law!”
The man, as if he hadn’t heard her, dragged Li Xue into a nearby alley and threw her onto the filthy ground.
“I heard you’re quite close to Tang Yu. When Tang Yu was jailed, you knelt outside the police station begging Zhou Qinghua to let her go, didn’t you?”
Li Xue, who had fallen to the ground, turned her face to see a woman in front of her and expressed her surprise, “Luo Bingbing?”
Luo Bingbing used to grab resources with ease, but now she couldn’t even get the opportunities of an eighteenth-line starlet.
The n who claid to be helping her were actually just looking to sleep with her.
anwhile, Tang Yu had taken her place and was flourishing in the entertainnt industry; she had even heard that Ye Sihan recently set up a studio exclusively for Tang Yu, with her as the only artist.
How could Luo Bingbing tolerate this?
If she couldn’t take Tang Yu down, couldn’t she handle Li Xue?
“Sister Luo…” Li Xue tried to get up to say so nice words, but was kicked in the leg by the man beside her, causing her so much pain that she dropped to one knee.
“Since you’re so close, I don’t see any problem with taking my anger out on you, do I?”
“You should go to Ye Sihan. Tang Yu is innocent,” Li Xue said.
“Daring to climb into Ye Sihan’s bed, she is not innocent!” Luo Bingbing said with a twisted face, seething with anger.
She once had a bright future, and had everything planned out perfectly, including marrying Ye Sihan. But everything got ssed up because of Tang Yu’s arrival!
And this is the pitiful state she had co to!
“That was Ye Sihan forcing her. She didn’t want to,” Li Xue defended Tang Yu.
“Ye Sihan has power and influence in Kyoto. Get close to him, and you can do as you please in Kyoto. She wouldn’t want it? Don’t act like a whore and then play the saint!” Luo Bingbing refused to believe her. “As for you, if she’s not a good person, you’re exactly the sa, after all, birds of a feather flock together. Break one of her legs for .”
Li Xue panicked, “Sister Luo, please spare for the sake of the past when I was your makeup artist!”
“Spare you? Then why would I bother bringing you here? Just to have sothing to do?” Luo Bingbing turned her face with a mocking smile. “How about this, you tell if Tang Yu has any secrets that nobody knows, and I’ll let you go today. How’s that?”
Li Xue was stunned, Tang Yu’s secrets? Four adorable and innocent children imdiately ca to her mind.
Would that count?
Nobody knew that the seemingly youthful Tang Yu actually already had four children.
“There are… no secrets,” Li Xue eventually shook her head.
“Then don’t bla ,” Luo Bingbing stepped back. “Bla Tang Yu instead! She’s the one who got you into this ss.”
Tang Yu was at ho waiting for Li Xue; it had been more than an hour, and she still hadn’t arrived.
Was she delayed buying sothing?
She sent a text ssage: Where are you?
No response.
Tang Yu waited a little while, and was just about to make a call when a call ca in
from an unfamiliar number.
She answered, “Hello, who is this?”
“Hello, this is Hexie Hospital. There’s been an incident involving a woman nad Li Xue; she has been brought to the ergency room.”
Tang Yu’s extremities turned ice-cold with fright, “What…”
After hanging up the phone, Tang Yu rushed out of the rental room, frantic, and ran to the entrance of the neighborhood to hail a cab.
The nurse on the phone had been very clear.
It seed that Li Xue had been beaten until her leg broke, and she lay unconscious in an alley, found and taken to the hospital by an ambulance.
Tang Yu couldn’t understand, who did this?
Why would soone do this to Li Xue? Had she offended anyone?
Could it be that Ye Sihan was punishing her for running away by causing trouble for Li Xue as a warning to her?
Could that be it?
Her mind was in turmoil, not being able to grasp a single thread of thought.
As soon as she arrived at the hospital, Tang Yu imdiately headed for the ergency room.
Li Xue was still unconscious on the bed, not having awakened.
However, the sight of her pant leg soaked through with blood was horrific.
Tears welled up in Tang Yu’s eyes as she choked up, “Sister Xue…”
“Who are you to her?” the doctor asked.
“I’m her friend,” Tang Yu said, holding back her emotions. “How is she? Is it serious? Why is there so much blood?”
“Her kneecap is fractured, and the niscus is severely damaged. She requires surgery.”
“Then… then let’s proceed with the surgery, right?” Tang Yu said. “Where do I pay? I can cover the costs.”
“We need her parents’ signature to perform the surgery; it would be best to contact her family mbers.”
“How did you get my number?” Tang Yu asked.
“When she was brought in she briefly regained consciousness and said her na was Li Xue, then provided us with your number,” they explained.
Tang Yu understood that her parents, staying in the countryside, shouldn’t be inford of such incidents; not only could they not help, but it would also frighten them.
In the capital, even though Li Xue had more friends than just her, this situation had arisen because of Tang Yu.
“Can’t a friend do? I can take responsibility,” Tang Yu asked.
“The hospital can’t take that risk. It has to be a parent or so other imdiate family mber.”
Li Xue had only her parents and no siblings.
Tang Yu looked at the unconscious Li Xue in the bed, her heart racing with urgency, knowing any delay would only waste precious ti for treatnt.
She turned and left the noisy ergency room, pulling out her phone to call Ye Sihan.
After two rings, the call connected, “I’m at Hexie Hospital. Li Xue had an accident; she needs to get to the operating room, but the hospital requires a parental signature; otherwise, the surgery can’t proceed. Can you help out?”
The other end was silent for a mont before responding, “Understood.”
Ye Sihan and Fu Longting had been sitting in the lounge, having drinks and talking.
After ending the call, Ye Sihan imdiately dialed Xiao Yu, “Get in touch with the director of Hexie Hospital and arrange for Li Xue to be taken into the operating room.”
“Understood.”
“Hold on,” Ye Sihan reconsidered, “I’ll go myself.”
Xiao Yu stared at the hung-up phone, surprised. Even if Li Xue’s matter pertained to Tang Yu, there was no need for Mr. Ye to go personally, was there?
Tang Yu stayed by Li Xue’s bedside but was helpless to do anything apart from worrying.
Once the doctors had done what they could, they simply left her aside.
Did Ye Sihan’s ‘understood’ an that he could resolve it imdiately?
As she anxiously waited, several people entered the already bustling ergency room, causing a commotion.
“Director, Chief, what brings you here?”
“Where’s Li Xue?” the director inquired.
“Over here,” the doctor led the way while briefing on Li Xue’s condition.
The director, looking at the unconscious Li Xue, commanded, “Arrange for her imdiate transfer to the operating room. Have our best orthopedic professor perform the surgery.”
“Got it.”
