Chapter 322 - Lost (Part-1)

'Bang!'

'Bang!'

No one had anticipated that Sha Han-You would fire up at Lu Lan. Not once but twice. Bullets had already struck Lu Lan's ċhėst by the time they realized what was going on.

Lu Lan stood stiff for a few seconds, looked down at her ċhėst. Blood was oozing out from her ċhėst before darkness spread in front of her eyes and she passed out.

"Missus!"

"Xiao Lan!"

Men rushed up to her. One of the men held her before she slumped down and their leader did not think twice and fired up at Sha Han-You

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The bullets hit at the center of her head.

"MOM!" Lu Xuelon shrilled and dashed over to her.

"Han-You!" Lu Yaohua was also shocked.

The leader did not care about anything further and immediately took Lu Lan away after ordering his subordinates.

"Seized them."

The men nodded and grabbed Lu Xuelon and Lu Yaohua.

"NO! Leave me...MOM! WAKE UP!..." Lu Xuelon shook Sha Han-You's body but it was too late.

Her breath had stopped and her eyes turned hollow.

Her face became ghastly as blood spilled forth.

"MOM! You can't leave me...MOM! Wake Up!" Lu Xuelon screamed at the top of her lung but neither Sha Han-You nor Si Li's men listen.

"Leave me...You kill my wife...basterds...I will kill you all! Leave me…"Lu Yaohua struggled to get out of the men's grabbed but did not avail.

Seeing the bloody chaos, Elder Lu's weak heart could not withstand the stress of seeing the bloody turmoil and passed out.

"Chairman Lu!" Assistant Hu exclaimed. he stood beside him and held him on the time. "Somebody help!"

The black-clad men away Lu Xuelon, Lu Yaohua alive, and Sha Han-You's dead body without given any heel to unconscious Elder Lu.

Diamond hills

Elder Si went to Si Corporation as there were a few important matters which needed attention.

Si Li was not an irresponsible person. Something must have happened that was why he went without letting anyone know.

Mo Jinnan was not in Mo Corporation otherwise, he must have known where was Si Li?

Perhaps, Si Li might have been with Mo Jinnan with this thought, Si Li put his mind at ease and went to Si Corporation.

Madam Si went to the store to buy some supplements for Lu Lan where she received a call from Little Champ's school, informing her that no one had come to pick him.

Lu Lan had gone to Lu Corporation for shareholders meeting but she had mentioned that she would pick Little Champ on her way back.

Madam Si tried to call her but her phone was switched off.

First Si Li went missing without a word and now Lu Lan's phone had been switched off.

What was happening?

Thinking that Little Champ was waiting at his school, Madam Si went to pick him up while keeping Lu Lan and Si Li backside of her mind.

"Mummy, I am home." Little Champ leaped straight to Lu Lan's room but found there was no one.

"Madam hasn't arrived yet, Little Master." The housekeeper informed him.

Little Champ's little brows knitted, he was planning to play with her. "Where did she go?" He asked.

"I don't know. Come I will help you to take bath." the housekeeper replied.

"Can you call her then?" Little Champ asked.

'Pang!'

Suddenly the sound came from downstairs. The phone fell from Madam Si's hand while her face turned pale.

The housekeeper went downstairs right away. Little Champ trailed behind her.

"Madam, what happened?" The housekeeper asked worriedly.

"G-get the car ready. I need to go to the hospital." Madam Si stuttered, her body was shivering but she was trying to calm down.

"What happened to mummy?" Little Champ asked.

He seemed perturb noticing Lu Lan's absences. And he was right something must have happened to his mummy.

"Little Champ...Your mummy.." Madam Si's words trailed off as she choked in sobs.

Soon they rushed to the hospital. Lu Lan was sent to the operation room. Elder Si arrived shortly after, followed by Madam Si and Little Champ. 

"Where is Xiao Lan? And how did that happen?" Madam Si asked Elder Si.

"Doctors have been treating Madam. We had no idea Sha Han-You had a gun with her; otherwise, we would have... It was our mistake." The leader replied and did not wave off from his mistake even if it was not his mistake.

Everything happened in a span of seconds that no one got the chance to stop Sha Han-You or save Lu Lan.

"Doctors is treating her. Let's hope nothing bad would happen to her and child. Where is Si Li?" Elder Si asked.

"We don't know, Chairman Si." The leader replied.

"Don't know? What is the meaning? Find out where he is and tell him to come back soon wherever he is." Elder Si ordered angrily.

It seemed quite unlikely that Si Li's men had no idea where he was.

It was not a good sign.

Moreover, Lu Lan got shot. 

Elders were in their talk and did not notice Little Champ walked towards the operation theatre room. "Mummy…" He sobbed.

It had only been a few days since they were overjoyed to hear Lu Lan's pregnancy news and now this happened.

Life did not give them much chance to relax. One after another, things were kept happening in Si Family. 

His lonely silhouette was heart-crushing. "Ohh...Dear…" Madam Si's heart wailed. She held him in her arms.

"Mummy…" Little Champ looked at the operation theatre

"She will come soon...No cry, my child." Madam Si consoled him by wiping his tears.

Seconds turned into minutes and then hours. Minutes grew into hours as seconds turned into minutes. The passage of time seemed to be slowing down. Everyone's heart was racing with each passing second, but there was nothing they could do but wait. 

Little Champ slept in Madam Si's arms after crying for a while.

Finally, after long hours of battle, the door of the operation room opened.

Doctors stepped out with a solemn expression on their faces, removing their headgear.

Everyone walked towards them. Little Champ jerked awake.

Despite the that he cried, he did not create a fuss for anyone.

"Doctor, how is Xiao Lan?" Elder Si asked hurriedly.

Doctor's expression did not look good which shrink everyone's heart with each passing second except the leader of Si Li's men as the doctor's reply would determine whether he would live or not.

"Elder Si...We have saved the patient but...we couldn't save the child…" The doctor's words desisted in the end.
