In the darkness, Qin Mu rushed to the stage. It was so dark that he couldn't see clearly. He could only shout: "Su Ruo, throw the watch out!"
For a long time, he didn't hear the sound of the crystal box falling. Qin Mu squinted his eyes, and his eyes barely adapted to the darkness, but he saw a figure huddled in the corner, dead and motionless.
That - should be her. He walked towards her, but suddenly heard a scream again: "No!"
Then, a body rushed toward him. Qin Muzhen did not expect that he was thrown to the ground. At the same time, a gunshot sounded in front of him...
He reached out in shock and touched the body in front of him, but he felt that his hands were full of blood and wet.
Scarlet pungent.
It turns out that the target is not the pocket watch, but him. Someone is hiding in the dark and wants to kill him?
****** *******
In the Huyuan Villa, the little boy nestled next to him, drooling as he slept.
Xia Tong watched the ending of "Step by Step" and was about to turn off the TV when a piece of news caught his attention.
"Latest news, a shooting occurred at the Xijue Hotel at 9pm. A lady surnamed Su was shot and her back was injured. She was rushed to the hospital for treatment." Then the screen turned to the door of the hotel, where a group of doctors-looking people carried a
The stretcher hurried towards the ambulance, and there was a girl on the stretcher covered in blood.
Just - Xia Tong turned off the TV and paused. Why did the injured girl look so like Su Ruo?
Xijue Hotel?
Wait! Isn’t that the hotel that Qin Muzhen kept talking about in her ears during the day? It’s also the hotel where the ‘all time love’ listing reception was held!
There was a shooting there? There was also a girl named Su injured? Why are they so similar...
Xia Tong stared at the TV and finally stood up in surprise when he saw another tall man covered in blood following the stretcher and getting into the ambulance.
It's Qin Mujue! Sure enough, it's him!
Something happened at his drinking party? There was a shooting? And Su Ruo was injured?!
All these doubts were connected together, and finally Xia Tong could no longer calm down. She stood up suddenly. She didn't have time to change clothes, so she put on a coat over her pajamas and hurried out.
When she came out, she realized that she didn't know which hospital they were in. Taking out her mobile phone from her pocket, Xia Tong called Qin Muchai, but no one answered. She called Nie Sheng again, and after the phone rang a few times,
, finally picked up.
"Hello...Nie Sheng?"
Nie Sheng didn't expect it to be Xia Tong and was a little surprised: "Miss Xia."
"What happened to you? What kind of shooting or injury? Is there anything wrong with Mu Jue?" Xia Tong's voice was so urgent that he was panicked.
"Young Master Mu is fine." Nie Sheng said, "But Miss Su Ruo was seriously injured."
Xia Tong was stunned. Sure enough! The woman carried on the stretcher was indeed Su Ruo!
"Which hospital are you in now?" Xia Tong asked.
Nie Sheng replied: "Ren'an Hospital, I don't know exactly what happened. All in all, it's hard to explain and it's very confusing. Miss Xia, you'd better come to the hospital and ask Mr. Mu face to face."
Xia Tong hung up the phone and rushed to Ren'an Hospital without stopping. After asking several medical staff, he immediately found Qin Muzhen's location.
Outside the operating room, Qin Muzhen sat quietly on a chair in the corridor. His black suit was covered with blood, which was shockingly red. He lowered his head, barely supported it with his elbow on his knee, and spoke silently.
, I don’t know what I’m thinking about.
Xia Tong walked over and heard the sound. He raised his head and glanced at her, with a deep confusion in his eyes.
"What happened?" Xia Tong sat next to him and asked.
He shook his head: "I don't know..." Suddenly he grabbed her shoulders again and shook her: "Xia Tong, do you think she will die? Will she?"
Xia Tong was stunned and didn't know how to answer
He let go of her and lowered his voice: "You don't know, in the hotel just now, I thought the purpose of those people was to steal the watch. In fact, no, their target was me, and they wanted to kill me! But after driving
When the gun was being fired, she threw me at me and took the shot for me! If something happened to her this time, I...I really don't know..."
For the first time, his voice lost its usual stability and composure and became chaotic.
Xia Tong didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only say: "No, nothing will happen to her..." Because five years ago, she had encountered a more dangerous accident than today. A car accident and a fire.
He was severely disfigured by the fire, but he still survived. He relied on his tenacious perseverance to come back to you.
Everyone says that if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later. She was a blessed person, so how could she die?
Xia Tong suddenly wanted to say everything, but when the words came to her lips, they were swallowed alive.
It turns out that from beginning to end, the most selfish person is yourself.
Compared with the love she had for him over the years, her love was too insignificant and too selfish.
In this dark night, Xia Tong looked at the man next to him stained with the blood of another woman, and felt extremely confused for the first time.
****** ******
After a whole night of resuscitation, the doctor walked out of the operating room tiredly early the next morning.
Qin Muzhen immediately stood up and walked over, asking: "How is she?"
The doctor smiled and said: "Everything is going well, you don't have to worry. However, her anesthesia has not worn off yet, and she will not wake up until noon. You can go and take a rest first."
Qin Mujue's face showed an expression of relief, and his heart, which had been tense all night, finally relaxed.
Xia Tong also stood up at this time: "Do you want me to call and ask Ranran to make a bowl of chicken soup?"
"No need..." He shook his head: "She doesn't like chicken soup."
Xia Tong was stunned, her?
She didn't dare to ask, whether he was referring to Su Ruo or Lin Manru.
Could it be that even he was beginning to notice and have doubts?
Qin Mujie was also slightly startled because of his sudden gaffe. He explained angrily: "I just guessed that she doesn't like to drink chicken soup."
"Oh..." Xia Tong deliberately showed a nonchalant expression: "Then let me ask Ranran to cook some porridge. She will always be hungry after working hard all night. It will be easier to digest if she eats some porridge."
He stretched out his hand and tidied up the turned-over clothes for her. His tone was more apologetic: "Thank you for your troubles. You have been worried all night and have waited here with me all night."
Xia Tong smiled: "It's okay."
There was suddenly a hint of politeness in his tone, which made her feel faintly uneasy.
