Zhan Ziye subconsciously dusted himself off and walked to Lu Juyan's side. He put his hand on his shoulder as if he was pretending to be sloppy, an unruly smile rippling on his face.
Without waiting for Lu Juyan to speak, his battle father had brought the police and the others under him with him as they hurried in, looking for Zhan Ziye.
"Stinking brat, look at what kind of nonsense you have caused!" The battle father glanced at the leader of the robbers lying on the ground before placing his gaze on Zhan Ziye. Seeing that his injuries weren't too serious, he finally relaxed a bit. He acted as if he was responsible for him, but his gaze was focused on the wound. He seemed to be a bit unable to bear the sight and ignored the people around him.
Zhan Ziye released his shoulder from Lu Juyan, the smile on his face vanishing in the blink of an eye. He looked at his father, and in the next second, his gaze shifted to another direction. He was so afraid that he didn't dare meet his father's eyes.
The Battle Father was furious. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhan Ziye's ear, reprimanding him with a few sentences. Looking at the pain on Zhan Ziye's face, he let go of his hand in embarrassment. The anger in his heart also subsided by a lot.
"Humph, come, send this brat to the hospital!" Battle Father smelt the smell of blood and clapped his hands. He pretended to despise the smell and ordered his subordinates with a stern face.
"Young master, please." A subordinate walked up to Zhan Ziye and extended his hand in a gesture of invitation. His face was expressionless and his eyes were downcast.
Zhan Ziye pursed his lips, put his hands into his pockets, and walked forward as if nothing had happened. He even patted Lu Juyan's shoulder before he left, giving him a look to indicate that he'd left first. Ye Zichen pursed his lips and whistled, completely ignoring the wounds on his body.
Looking at Zhan Ziye's departing appearance, the Battle Father couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Ye Zichen raised his foot to kick him, but he was worried that the injury was too heavy, so he moved his leg forward in embarrassment.
"Ju Yan, thank you so much for this time." This little brat is too insensible, you should take more responsibility. " He took a step forward and patted Lu Juyan's shoulder, expressing his thanks.
"It's fine, Uncle Zhan, hurry and go to the hospital." Lu Juyan nodded, but did not express too much of her emotions. With his mind on Du Liqing, he didn't want to waste time on other people, so he subconsciously changed the topic to look for Du Liqing.
The battle father thought of Battle Son Ye's injuries and did not say much. He just said a few more polite words before turning around and leaving. A trace of helplessness and worry flashed across his eyes. There was even a trace of worry. He hoped that the phone in his pocket wouldn't ring again during this period of time.
The crowd of people also left with their father's departure. In an instant, the place was empty, leaving Lu Juyan by himself. Without saying anything further, he walked over to the place where he had placed Du Liqing. Seeing her still sitting there obediently, his heart was filled with a sense of relief.
The young man was bored. He put a hand to his chin and looked down at the ants crawling on the ground. Out of the corner of his eye, he happened to notice Lu Juyan's figure. He lifted his head and saw him striding towards them with large strides, feeling a few odd emotions in his heart. He couldn't help but ask, "Why have you appeared here?"
This sudden question caused Lu Juyan, who'd wanted to pick up Du Liqing, to stiffen his body and recover his senses. He looked away and picked her up without a word. After a moment of silence, he said simply, "Passing by."
Du Ruqing's heart quivered when she was embraced by the princess. She felt the pulsing veins on Lu Juyan's firm arms and subconsciously lowered her gaze, not noticing Lu Juyan's evading gaze because he wanted to conceal himself.
When she heard Lu Juyan's thumping heart, her cheeks reddened slightly as she selectively turned her head away. She didn't pay attention to it, but couldn't ignore the fact that her own heartbeat had become the melody of Lu Juyan's heartbeat.
Lu Juyan, who was carrying Du Liqing, lowered his gaze and tried to look at Du Liqing's current expression, but could only see the side of his face suffused with a crimson shade of color. Joy rippled through his heart as he held her even more tightly. He felt extremely happy as he approached her. The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Neither of them spoke as they walked towards the hospital. The atmosphere was very delicate, but it was as if there was a pink bubble around them.
"I'll go to the emergency room first. You can sit here and rest." Lu Juyan had placed Du Ruqing on the hospital's bench. In order to prevent his identity from being revealed, he didn't do anything special and consciously sat down to do what ordinary people should do.
Du Liqing felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart when he saw Lu Juyan's figure hasten forward. He shook his head and subconsciously chose to ignore him. Placing both hands on his knees and playing with his fingertips, complicated emotions spread out once again, and his vision gradually became less clear.
"Just a moment." Lu Juyan returned with the queue number. He looked at Du Liqing, whose thoughts were drifting away, and walked up to pick her up. He then turned around and placed her on the bed that the nurse had pushed over.
If you want to remove the bullet, you have to do an operation. Therefore, Lu Juyan had no choice but to put Du Liqing on the bed and let the nurse push her into the operating room.
Lu Juyan followed the nurse to the door of the operation room. A trace of heartache flashed through his eyes as he saw the red light light on. Nervousness rippled through his heart. His fingertips traced his own arm, feeling the warmth of Du Liqing's body.
"Boss, that kidnapper saw that young master Zhan was wearing better clothes and had a bad intention to kidnap him and ask him for some money." Western Australia walked around the corner of the hospital and stood beside Lu Juyan, reporting in a low voice on the basic situation of the kidnappers.
He had a stern expression on his face as he stood to the side, completely committed to his duty. His body was covered in dust, all caused by his fight with the kidnappers. He wanted to appear at the first possible moment, but he deliberately chose to walk into the operating room with Du Ruqing so as to not disturb the two of them.
"Any excuse to incriminate them." Lu Juyan raised his head to look at the red light in the operating room and lowered his gaze, wanting to see what was going on inside through the door. He did not want to let go of his kidnappers in the slightest, so he ordered coldly.
He pursed his lips, placed his hands behind his back, and waited for Du Liqing's appearance. His anxiety made him ignore the departure of Western Australia. The empty corridor was lit up, leaving only one person behind, causing his silhouette to appear somewhat terrifying and lonely.
"The patient's condition isn't too bad. He'll need to rest for a while." Not long later, the light on the operating room door turned green. The doctor walked out from inside, took off his mask, and spoke a word or two to Lu Juyan.
As soon as he finished speaking, the nurses pushed him out of the sickbed. Du Ruqing couldn't move her body even after taking the anesthetic, so she could only lie down obediently and let the nurse send her to a room with an empty seat.
