What she didnât notice was a dark figure slowly approaching her from not too far away.
It didnât take long for Hai Xiaotang to drive her car over.
But there was no sign of Qiao Ning.
Where could she have gone within just one minute?
She got out of the car in confusion, âQiao Ning, where are you?â
No one in the vicinity replied.
Hai Xiaotang pulled out her phone to call Qiao Ning, but found that the battery had died at some point.
Just when Hai Xiaotang started to get frantic, she suddenly heard faint cries for help.
âHelp⦠Help meâ¦â
That wasâ¦Qiao Ningâs voice!
The color drained from Hai Xiaotangâs face, quickly took a flashlight from the car and ran towards the direction of the voice.
The location was near the school. The areas around C University were a bit remote and deserted at night.
The surrounding area was heavily cultivated with greenery, with Qiao Ningâs voice emanating from within those bushes.
Hai Xiaotang charged in, the area was pitch black inside, it was quite terrifying.
But she didnât allow herself to be held back by the danger, she followed the sound and in the flashlightâs beam, she saw a man in a baseball cap assaulting Qiao Ning!
Hai Xiaotangâs blood boiled with rage, she charged forward and brutally clubbed the man on the head with her flashlight.
â Aah!â The man cried out in pain and turned around to attack her.
Hai Xiaotang grew up in a military environment where she picked up some martial-arts skills.
She skillfully avoided the manâs attack, then bumped into him forcefully, knocking him down.
âQiao Ning, run!â HaiXiaotang shouted.
Qiao Ningâs body was limp, she managed to stumble up trembling, but after only one step, the man grabbed her ankle.
âAltâ¦.â Qiao Ning fell back onto the ground.
Angered, Hai Xiaotang stomped on the manâs stomach, âScum, die!â
The man, however, managed to grab her foot and pulled her down too.
Hai Xiaotangâs forehead knocked on the ground, the pain made her dizzy and disoriented.
âXiaotang!â Qiao Ningshrieked.
Whether it was her shriek that scared the man or he just didnât want to do anything else, he got up and ran, disappearing without a trace.
Qiao Ning quickly helped Hai Xiaotang up, âXiaotang, are you okay?â
Hai Xiaotang was in great pain, âIâm fine, Qiao Ning, letâs get out of here quicklyâ¦.â
Too dangerous!
âOkay!â
After supporting each other to quickly get back to the roadside, they still trembled even after getting into the car.
Despite being in discomfort, Hai Xiaotang managed to start the car and headed to the hospital.
Upon arrival at the hospital, they finally let out a sigh of relief.
Qiao Ning looked at Hai Xiaotang and cried out in shock, âXiaotang, youâre bleeding!â
Hai Xiaotang touched her forehead and it was indeed covered with blood.
Whether it was the trauma from head injuries in a past life that was creating a mental shockwave, or just she was exhausted, Hai Xiaotang suddenly fainted.
âXiaotangââ Before she passed out, she heard Qiao Ning calling her in panic.
Hai Xiaotang was quickly rushed to the emergency room.
Standing at the door of the emergency room, Qiao Ning took out her phone and dialed Chai Xiyangâs number.
But the phone just kept ringing, with Chai Xiyang not answering.
Knowing that he wouldnât answer, Qiao Ning dialed again.
This time, the phone was finally answered lazily. Chai Xiyangâs cold voice came from the other end, âDidnât I tell you not to call me unless itâs important?â
âBrother, Xiaotang and I had an incident. Weâre at the First City Hospital. Xiaotangâs phone died, can you help contact her husband?â Qiao Ning ignored his attitude and rushed out the words.
Chai Xiyang frowned, âHold on!â
He hung up and immediately dialed Dongfang Yu!
