Ye Qilan didnât take it seriously. One day, he would make Su Hongxing look at him in a new light and worship him.
Hearing everyoneâs laughter, Little Baozi also started waving his hands and feet excitedly, looking particularly adorable.
Su Hongxing hugged Little Baozi and kissed him several times. Then, Little Pudding ran over asking for kisses too, filling the room with lively laughter.
In the days that followed, everything remained peaceful. Su Hongxing never received any more strange emails. She even started to wonder if this matter had finally come to an end, the prank done and dusted.
That Saturday morning, Jiang Su called, saying sheâd visit the kids in the evening.
As it approached nine oâclock and Jiang Su still hadnât shown up, Grandma Jiang began to worry and said to Su Hongxing, "Call Xiaosu and ask why she hasnât arrived yet."
Su Hongxing was a bit concerned as well. She dialed Jiang Suâs phone number, but the first call went unanswered.
She called again, and this time the phone was answered, Jiang Suâs voice trembling with sobs: "Sis, Iâm at the hospital. Xiao Ji got hurt saving me. Sis, come quickly..."
She gave the specific address of the hospital. Su Hongxing asked, "Are you okay?"
"I only have minor injuries, but Xiao Ji got hurt badly saving me. Heâs still in the emergency room. Sis, Iâm scared..." Jiang Su barely managed to hold back her tears.
Su Hongxing comforted her for a while before hanging up.
She told Grandma Jiang about Jiang Suâs situation. Grandma Jiang, worried about Jiang Su, insisted on going to the hospital.
In the end, Su Hongxing handed the two kids over to Qiao Qiao. "Xiaoqiao, call me if anything comes up. Weâre heading to the hospital to check on whatâs going on."
"Donât worry, Iâll take good care of them. You go to the hospital and check on Xiaosu," Qiao Qiao agreed readily.
Of course, Ye Qilan wasnât about to let Su Hongxing go to the hospital alone. He drove, and before long, the group had arrived at the hospital.
As soon as Jiang Su saw Su Hongxing and Grandma Jiang, she ran toward them crying.
Seeing blood on Jiang Su, Su Hongxing held her and examined her carefully. Confirming it was just minor injuries, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Didnât you say you were going to Qingmu Garden tonight? How did you end up at a restaurant and getting into a fight with someone?" Su Hongxing pulled Jiang Su to sit down and asked.
"I was planning to go to Qingmu Garden after a dinner with classmates, but unexpectedly, one of them got drunk and started arguing with people at the next table. The other group had more people, and we couldnât stand up to them. Luckily, I saw Xiao Ji and asked him for help. But I didnât expect him to get hurt because of me. Before he passed out, he even told me not to tell Xiao Jiâs mom about this..."
Jiang Su couldnât stop the tears from flowing. "Sis, Iâm just a walking disaster. If anything happens to Xiao Ji, how will I face his mom?"
Su Hongxing glanced toward the emergency room. "Itâs no use saying anything now. We can only wait for the results."
After the last time she and Xiao Ji parted unhappily, she had never imagined sheâd see him again under such circumstances.
Xiao Ji didnât have to step in, and had he not, he wouldnât be lying in the emergency room right now.
"If he dies, so be itâone less troublemaker!" Ye Qilan, standing to the side, said indifferently. He had no fondness for Xiao Ji, perhaps because when rivals meet, tensions rise.
He couldnât wait for Xiao Ji to die sooner, never to appear in front of Su Hongxing again.
"Would it kill you to hold your tongue for once?" Su Hongxing glared at Ye Qilan.
Ye Qilan snorted coldly. "This is what I truly think."
He couldnât pretend to be fake. When it came to dealing with his enemies, he believed in being ruthless!
