Chen Jin quickly stepped forward to help Zhou Zhao up.
"Li Huan."
"Coming, coming." Li Huan hurried up to assist, simultaneously checking Zhou Zhao’s body, frowning, "Go to the hospital, internal injury."
Zhou Zhao, barely conscious, glanced at Li Huan: "Lost some weight, serves you right for fooling me."
Li Huan helped him steady his breath: "Ancestor, stop talking while coughing up blood, it’s quite eerie."
"I’m worried about you not sleeping or eating well, and you say I’m eerie? Have some humanity!"
"So touching, I’ll treat you to ten meals when you’re better!" Li Huan promised as he supported him.
"That’s more like it." Zhou Zhao turned his head to Chen Jin, handing back the cleaned knife, "Here, don’t resent me later."
Chen Jin frowned, "No."
If he resented, he wouldn’t have given him the knife before entering the door.
Except for Gong Chen, Li Huan had never touched his knife.
Lin Zhiyi took out Gong Chen’s handkerchief and stepped forward to wipe Zhou Zhao’s blood.
"Why is he still coughing up blood?"
"Miss Lin, missing out on our young master is your loss."
Zhou Zhao, with blood-stained teeth, still managed to laugh.
"He’s delirious, get him to the hospital quickly."
Li Huan grabbed the handkerchief to cover Zhou Zhao’s mouth.
Better not let him get killed by bodyguards, only to be killed by Gong Chen first.
Lin Zhiyi quickly said, "I’ll call Liao Yi and have her wait downstairs, she’s good at driving."
"Quick, quick..."
Li Huan and Chen Jin helped Zhou Zhao and left.
Gong Chen and Sang Li ran over to brace against the elevator door.
After going downstairs, Li Huan and Chen Jin brought Zhou Zhao into Liao Yi’s car and left first.
Lin Zhiyi was just about to get into Sang Li’s car with Gong Chen when a voice suddenly called out from behind.
"Lin Zhiyi! Why are you still alive in good health! Yet I’m neither human nor ghost! I’ll kill you!"
It was Ye Feifei.
Not only had she escaped from the police, but she also had a dessert fork in her hand.
Typically, you’d use such a fork when drinking coffee with dessert.
It looked slender and exquisite, and with the light casting on it on a table, it was not only tasteful but also photogenic.
Seemingly harmless, it could indeed be deadly if it pierced a vital point.
Everything happened so suddenly, not only Lin Zhiyi failed to react, even Gong Chen and Sang Li reacted a beat slower.
Lin Zhiyi wanted desperately to dodge, but her body wouldn’t cooperate, she could only watch as Ye Feifei thrust the fork towards her neck.
At the critical moment, someone forcefully pushed her aside, and she heard a woman’s scream next to her ear.
"Ah!"
Lin Zhiyi turned her head to look.
She saw Bai Ruoshu fall painfully into Gong Chen’s arms, the tip of the fork already embedded in her arm.
Her face pale, she looked up at Gong Chen, trembling: "Is Zhiyi okay?"
"..."
Before Lin Zhiyi could speak, Bai Ruoshu fainted in Gong Chen’s arms.
Ye Feifei was also subdued by the police who had rushed over.
The police looked at Bai Ruoshu’s bleeding arm: "Take her to the hospital first."
...
Hospital.
Zhou Zhao was still in surgery, and Bai Ruoshu was sent to have her wound treated, accompanied by the police. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Because the incident involved the Gong Group, Gong Chen also followed along.
Li Huan, Chen Jin, and Liao Yi were somewhat puzzled when they saw Bai Ruoshu being brought in.
Not to mention them, even Lin Zhiyi was a bit bewildered.
It was the police who came over to explain the situation.
"When we were about to leave, Ye Feifei suddenly had difficulty breathing, so we had to stop and give her first aid. Somehow, she seized the opportunity to dash towards Miss Lin."
Lin Zhiyi exclaimed, "Suddenly? But how did she have a dessert fork in her hand?"
