Chapter 1290: We Aren't Divorced Yet

~7 min read 1,388 words

Thinking back to when she met Liu Xin'ai, she had been running very fast, so Jiang Chenghao asked with no small amount of worry, "Is your condition alright right now?"

"Mm, I'm fine."

"If you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself."

"I know."

Jiang Chenghao had originally wanted to give a few more instructions.

But thinking that Liu Xin'ai was a doctor herself, Jiang Chenghao felt that his instructions were completely unnecessary.

However, Jiang Chenghao did take advantage of this moment to calm down.

Once a person is calm, their brain will capture some detailed issues.

Jiang Chenghao thought for a moment and asked Liu Xin'ai, "Where did that bastard from just now pop out from?"

"He was a staff member here, saying he would take me to find Baobao and Xiao Tang, who would have thought..."

Liu Xin'ai felt a lingering fear.

But she didn't want to show it in front of Jiang Chenghao, so she changed the subject: "This person is too dangerous; we must call Xiao Tang and Baobao back. Then notify the Shanzhuang manager to find this black sheep!"

"I actually think that guy might not be a Shanzhuang staff member."

Not one?

Then wouldn't that be even more dangerous!

Liu Xin'ai quickened her pace and, at the same time, called Jiang Baobao.

But on the phone, Liu Xin'ai didn't explain the details, only telling the two of them to return to the Shanzhuang right now, to walk in crowded areas, and absolutely not to talk to anyone else.

This description made Jiang Baobao sense something.

She didn't ask any more questions, hung up the phone, and headed back in the company of Cai Xiaotang.

As for Liu Xin'ai's side, she noticed that Jiang Chenghao's pace had slowed down.

Fighting still consumes a lot of physical strength.

So Liu Xin'ai didn't urge him, just silently adjusted her own speed.

By the way, she chatted with him: "Why are you here?"

"Li Beijue and the others were worried about you pregnant women coming out alone, so they had me bring two aunts to take care of you; this way, you can have fun, and they can be at ease."

"Why were you the one sent?"

"I am, after all, Baobao's uncle; since I was the one sent, she couldn't easily refuse."

Hearing this, Liu Xin'ai nodded lightly.

But the next instant, she sniffed and muttered in confusion: "Why is there a smell of blood?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chenghao couldn't help but hide his arm behind his back.

Liu Xin'ai was just turning her head to look, and happened to see this movement.

Her eyes rolled, and Liu Xin'ai came up with a hypothesis: "You're hurt?!"

"No, let's go first."

Jiang Chenghao walked a few steps faster, passing Liu Xin'ai.

But at this very moment, Liu Xin'ai grabbed his arm.

Jiang Chenghao felt the pain, and the expression on his face crumpled together!

But Liu Xin'ai didn't let go; instead, she held his arm and brought it before her eyes.

At this moment, there were already streetlights beside the two of them.

Borrowing the light, Liu Xin'ai saw that Jiang Chenghao's clothes had been slashed open.

And it was stained with fresh blood!

Judging by the shape of the tear in the fabric...

"That person used a knife?!"

"This... I don't even know what he used."

Jiang Chenghao truly didn't know.

He had been so angry at the time that he hadn't even felt the pain.

This answer made Liu Xin'ai knit her brows tightly.

She said: "Even if you're angry, you have to keep your head; what if that person had stabbed a vital spot? It could cost a life!"

Liu Xin'ai's tone was very serious.

But Jiang Chenghao felt very warmed by it.

He felt...

It had been a long time since Liu Xin'ai had cared for him like this, which made him feel very warm all over.

However, the next second...

Jiang Chenghao almost cried out!

Because Liu Xin'ai had pinched the area near the wound on his arm.

Jiang Chenghao's face went pale.

He was too embarrassed to call out in pain, so he could only say tactfully: "Xin'ai... can you let go?"

"No, endure the pain; there's nothing here to help you stop the bleeding, so I have to pinch the upper end of the wound."

Hearing this explanation, Jiang Chenghao didn't speak again.

He just silently endured it.

However, they hadn't walked far when a figure, filled with thunderous rage, blocked the two of them.

And pointing at Liu Xin'ai, he scolded: "You were in such a rush to find another man? We aren't even divorced yet!"

Hearing this voice, Liu Xin'ai frowned.

She wondered why Qin Yiyan was here!?

But she did not want to get entangled with Qin Yiyan, so she prepared to walk around him.

Qin Yiyan, however, did not allow it.

He grabbed Liu Xin'ai's arm, intending to separate the two of them!

Qin Yiyan succeeded.

But also...

He saw Liu Xin'ai's palm stained with blood!

This made Qin Yiyan's heart skip a beat, and he asked in a panic: "Why is there so much blood? You're hurt, where are you hurt, does it hurt?"

The persistent questioning was filled with a concern and urgency that even Qin Yiyan himself had not noticed.

Liu Xin'ai did not notice it either.

She only felt that Qin Yiyan's voice was so noisy!

Hearing it, she shouted impatiently: "It is Jiang Chenghao who is hurt! Do not get in the way!"

After speaking, Liu Xin'ai pushed Qin Yiyan away.

Then she grabbed Jiang Chenghao's arm again and walked quickly toward the Shanzhuang.

At this moment, Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang were standing in the Main Hall of the Shanzhuang, discussing something.

They had originally already returned to their rooms.

But they had not seen Liu Xin'ai.

When they called, that woman did not answer either.

Growing increasingly uneasy, the two of them stood there discussing a plan.

As it turned out, just at this moment, Liu Xin'ai appeared, dragging Jiang Chenghao!

Behind them followed a dark-faced Qin Yiyan!!

What... is this situation!?

Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang were both stunned.

The next instant, Cai Xiaotang could not help but exclaim: "Did Xin'ai call us here because she couldn't handle this Shura field?"

Jiang Baobao had sharp eyes and noticed something: "No, Uncle is hurt!"

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang took the initiative to go over to meet them.

Liu Xin'ai called over the Shanzhuang's management staff and arranged with a serious face: "Please call the healthcare doctor to help this gentleman treat his wounds. Additionally, please investigate a male staff member; he is about one meter seventy-five, has a buzz cut, small eyes, a flat nose, thick lips, and a mole on his right cheek."

"May I ask, this person..."

"He lured me to a deserted place and intended to do something untoward!"

"Understood, we will go check right away."

Qin Yiyan's expression turned very ugly, and he grabbed Liu Xin'ai and asked: "You just said, how did that person..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Xin'ai pulled her arm back.

She was... ignoring Qin Yiyan once again!

Under Qin Yiyan's resentful gaze, Liu Xin'ai, along with Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang, sent Jiang Chenghao to the Shanzhuang's infirmary.

After an examination, Jiang Chenghao's wound was too deep and he had to be sent to the Hospital for treatment.

As for the person Liu Xin'ai mentioned, it was discovered through surveillance that he was not a staff member there at all.

But this incident had a very bad impact, and the person in charge of the Shanzhuang decided to call the police to handle it.

After these things happened, Liu Xin'ai and the others all felt very disappointed.

They were also in no mood to continue playing.

It just so happened that the two aunties sent to look after Jiang Chenghao were also there, so they asked them to help pack their luggage.

And Liu Xin'ai and the others simply got into the car arranged by the Shanzhuang along with Jiang Chenghao and headed to the Hospital.

Li Beijue's expression darkened instantly; he stared coldly at Jiang Baobao, his voice sounding as if it were being squeezed through his teeth: "Say that again?"
