In short, Lu Jingchen cried out in pain, his head was smashed by a vase wielded by Han Xi, his wrists and fingers were broken, and he was utterly incapable of fighting back, leaving Li Manman to beat him senselessly.
The n who were with Lu Jingchen didn't dare to move an inch, all laying on the ground like corpses.
Li Manman, tired from the beating, leaned against the wall gasping for breath, confidently nodded towards Han Xi and asked, "Did you call the police?"
Han Xi nodded, "I did, they should be here soon."
Chu Ci looked at the injuries on Han Xi and felt concerned, "Let's go to the hospital and bandage your wounds first. If they need you to record a statent, the police will likely call you."
"Yes, yes, let's go to the hospital first."
Li Manman brushed her disheveled hair and pulled Han Xi towards the elevator.
"Wait a minute." Han Xi stopped, turned to the man in black, "Can I use your phone?"
The man in black nodded, pulled out the phone from his pocket, and handed it to Han Xi.
Han Xi took the phone, saved her number in the contacts, and looked up, "This is my number. If the police need to record a statent, please give them my phone number. Also, thank you so much for helping earlier."
The man in black took the phone back, nodded silently.
........
At the hospital, Chen Zheng helped Han Xi take care of her wounds, his deep eyes filled with concern.
After hearing the whole story, Chen Zheng felt intense frustration, wishing he had been there to properly teach that bastard Lu Jingchen a lesson.
Once the wounds were cared for, and no call ca from the police station, Han Xi and the others headed ho, exhausted from the night's events, just wishing for a good night's sleep.
At six in the morning, Chu Ci was awakened by the phone ringing. Half asleep, she reached for the phone on the bedside table and answered.
"Hello, who is it?" Due to being half-awake, Chu Ci's voice was sowhat hoarse.
"I just got notified this morning that the movie's opening ceremony is moved up by a day. You need to pack imdiately; we have to catch a flight." The voice on the other end belonged to Su Yan, Chu Ci's agent.
"I'm still half-asleep, why is it always so rushed?"
"It's a last-minute notice, nothing I can do. Get so sleep on the plane, I'll pick you up in forty minutes."
After hanging up, Chu Ci pulled the blanket over her head in frustration, but a few minutes later, she threw it off and sat up on the bed, agitated, ruffling her ssy hair.
Han Xi beside her was awakened by the noise, turned, and opened her eyes, "What's wrong?"
"I have to work, but I don't want to go, not at all."
Hearing Chu Ci had to work, Han Xi suddenly woke up, climbing out of bed, "Weren't we supposed to have three days off, why so sudden?"
"It's a last-minute notice, Su Yan will be here soon to pick up. I should get washed up first." Chu Ci took a deep breath, threw off the blanket, and headed to the bathroom.
"Then let make you so breakfast."
"No need, I'll just grab sothing on the way, you go back to sleep."
"Oh."
Han Xi had taken a half-day off this morning, no need to rise early, so after seeing Chu Ci off, she went back to sleep until around eleven before getting up, seeing Li Manman still sleeping soundly on the bed, she headed to the kitchen speechlessly.
This one has always been able to sleep so soundly, unshakeable even by a storm.
