After the couple left, Luo Xiaolei was walking back to Yu Chen's room when she saw Gu Jinyang step out of another room right next to Yu Chen's.
"Dr. Yang." She called out and the doctor faced her.
"Miss Luo, I think I need to check on you as well later just to be sure. I heard from Gu Wei that you hit your head."
"Please don't worry about me, it's just a little bump. How's Gu Wei?"
"Ah, they're inside. You can go see them. We won't allow you to go inside Chen's room for a couple of hours from now so you can stay in their room in the meantime."
"Mm. I understand."
"Don't worry, I am here. Nothing will happen to Yu Chen." He said, smiling at her and Xiaolei finally smiled back.
"Mm. I know you will take good care of him."
Once the doctor left, Luo Xiaolei slowly opened the door. What appeared before her were two wounded men lying on separate beds. But it wasn't only them, Gu Jinyang, Kyuu and the rest of Yu Chen's closest body guards were also inside, as if they were having a conference. Gladly, the room was spacious enough to accommodate them all.
When they saw Luo Xiaolei, everyone fell silent as they all looked at her.
Luo Xiaolei's eyes fell towards Gu Wei. He was lying there, hooked up to many devices as well. But he was conscious and he was grinning at her.
"Good morning, miss, " he even greeted as she approached him. She could see that his situation was dire.
"How are you?" she asked, worried as she looked at him.
"He was shot on his back and shoulder, Miss, " someone answered for him.
"I'm still fine and kicking, Miss, don't worry about me." Gu Wei was still as bright as always. She sat on the chair right next to him.
Luo Xiaolei tried her best to stay collected and smiled back at him."Mm. You have to get well too, okay?" she said, her voice was gentle but encouraging. Her gentleness and care made Gu Wei a bit emotional.
"Miss, please don't make me cry." He complained, looking away, causing the others to laugh softly."How dare you guys laugh! You all didn't even say any encouraging and gentle words to me so don't blame me for being emotional like this!!" he fumed and somehow, the atmosphere had become a bit lighter.
"Miss Luo... how about me? Notice me, too." A voice echoed and everyone snapped towards the other bed across Gu Wei's.
"Whoah!! Guan Ye, you're finally awake!" one of the men exclaimed. It appeared that Guan Ye had been unconscious since yesterday.
"Are you alright?" Luo Xiaolei asked as she approached him while the others called for a doctor.
"I'm fine Miss. I think I broke my leg." He said as he stared at his feet. Before she could reply, a doctor came so they all stepped out of the room to not intimidate the staff.
"Miss Luo, I think you should rest. We can't let you stress out like this." Gu Jinyang said, as he sat beside her. He looked worried.
"I'm fine, Mr. Gu. Please don't worry, Dr. Yang said he will give me another check-up later." She replied when someone approached them. Luo Xiaolei knew him. He was Zhuo Yuan, the bulky and the biggest of all of Yu Chen's bodyguards. He also always had a menacing aura akin to a military commander.
Gu Jinyang immediately stood upon seeing him.
"Mr. Gu, the kid has confessed." He said and everyone was shocked, except for Luo Xiaolei and Kyuu. They all looked like they couldn't believe what they heard and they were crestfallen.
"Excuse me, Miss Luo." Gu Jinyang and Zhuo Yuan along with some of the men were about to leave when Luo Xiaolei spoke.
"Let me come with you, please." She said and they all looked at her in surprise. Luo Xiaolei somehow could tell that this was about what happened yesterday and she wanted to know everything.
"Uhm Miss Luo, I don't think it's a good idea for you to come. I'm afraid you might -"
"It's okay, Mr. Gu. She can handle it." Kyuu interrupted Gu Jinyang and his words only made everyone even more confused and surprised. They obviously doubted that their lady boss could handle what she was about to see, but the one who spoke was Kyuu, their boss' most loyal guard. The one who could even be called their boss' shadow, or his machine-like protector.
"Kyuu, what do you mean?" Gu Jinyang was curious when Kyuu walked towards him.
"The miss has already seen Chen kill someone right before her eyes way back when she was just a young girl." He whispered and Gu Jinyang's eyes turned wide in surprise and confusion."I will tell you about it later." He added and Gu Jinyang finally agreed although he still hesitated and was still worried.
Outside the hospital, they entered a sealed dark basement.
The moment they reached the innermost part of the dark garage, Luo Xiaolei saw three men seating on a chair. They were blindfolded and drenched with blood. One look and one would know that they were tortured to the extreme.
The men kept glancing at Luo Xiaolei but the girl remained surprisingly calm.
"Are they the ones who caused the accident yesterday?" she asked, her eyes locked onto the man in the middle.
"Yes, Miss, they drove a truck and purposely collided with your van from both sides."
"Meaning, they knew about Yu Chen's condition. They knew that even a simple accident could hurt him badly." She uttered and everyone was surprised again.
"T-that's right."
"And they also knew that we were heading to this place. They were already waiting for us here." The men looked at each other upon hearing her. Even Gu Jinyang was silenced and couldn't reply.
Then Luo Xiaolei walked towards the bloody men. Gu Jinyang looked at Kyuu with a frantic gaze but Kyuu told them to let her.
The men were suddenly tensed as their lady boss, who was always a harmless angel in their eyes, now looked like a fearless warrior.
The moment she stopped in front of the young man in the middle, she raised her hand, and without any hesitation, she removed the man's blindfold. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣noνℯ𝘭 - 🅽🅽novel
