Chapter 1297: Chapter 1295: 1294 Help

The call had hung up, and when Tan Rou called back, no one answered, leading her to mistakenly think that Jiang Min had dialed the wrong number.

“It must have been Senior Jiang Min who dialed the wrong number,” Tan Rou checked the time; it was already midnight, and she guessed Jiang Min wouldn’t call again. “Let’s go to sleep first, and I’ll call her back in the morning.”

However, just as they lay down, the phone started vibrating again; they hadn’t fallen asleep yet, so the vibration of the phone was very clear.

Tan Rou answered the phone, “Hello, Senior Jiang Min…”

She hadn’t even finished her greeting when she heard Jiang Min whisper, “Save me…”

Tan Rou, who was slightly sleepy, suddenly felt wide awake. She sat up sharply and asked, “Senior Jiang Min, what’s wrong with you?”

“I’m at your doorstep… in the university town…” Jiang Min said weakly, “Feng Jiao wants to kill me…”

Tan Rou quickly threw off the covers and ran downstairs barefoot without even putting on shoes, “Living room lights, on!”

The living room lights blazed on instantly.

Zhuang Liu, wearing a coat, followed her to the door.

Tan Rou opened the yard gate and indeed saw a woman covered in blood at the door, her once delicate makeup completely ruined, with several wounds on her face and arms, and her shoes missing.

“Senior!” Tan Rou recognized that it was Jiang Min, but she didn’t understand how Jiang Min had ended up like this in just a few hours.

Following behind, Zhuang Liu, struck by the smell of blood, took off his coat and draped it over Jiang Min, saying, “Let’s bring her inside first.”

Tan Rou lifted Jiang Min up; all the lights in the house were turned on, and Aunt Zhou along with other servants, dressed in pajamas, came out to see what had happened, all asking what had occurred.

Tan Rou instructed, “Aunt Zhou, take a few people and clean up the doorway; there’s blood everywhere. Clean it thoroughly and spray some disinfectant.”

The servants, frightened by the sight of Jiang Min covered in blood, were scared, but Aunt Zhou was calm. She said, “You all know we can’t talk about this to anyone, right? If I hear of any gossip in our neighborhood, you won’t need to work here anymore.”

This quieted the servants, as the job at the Tao family paid well and usually involved taking care of just one young mistress, so they were reluctant to lose such an easy job.

Tan Rou didn’t want to dig into how Jiang Min had gotten in or ask about her injuries right now; she immediately asked Zhuang Liu to fetch medicine from her pharmacy and began treating Jiang Min’s wounds.

Jiang Min had cuts on her face and arms, and a stab wound on her back; her clothes were torn, indicating the sharpness of the knife.

Jiang Min was still trembling, Tan Rou gently held her, saying, “It’s okay, I’m here, you’ll be safe.”

Jiang Min looked up at Tan Rou, her tears suddenly overflowing, “I… I’m sorry…”

Tan Rou told her not to talk, “We’ll talk later, let’s treat your wounds first.”

Jiang Min’s wounds were pretty severe, but the bleeding had stopped, which indicated that she had been injured for a while. She was truly lucky to have survived losing so much blood without fainting from blood loss, which meant her physical condition was quite good.

Tan Rou directed Zhuang Liu to bring medicine from her pharmacy and had the house cook start preparing food, as Jiang Min needed to replenish her nutrients and ideally should go to a hospital for a blood transfusion.

“Senior, I’ll take you to the hospital to get checked,” Tan Rou said, “You need a blood transfusion.”

Jiang Min shook her head, “I won’t go, Feng Jiao will find me, he knows where my house is, he knows the location of my old house, so I won’t go there.”

“I’m talking about going to the hospital for a blood transfusion,” Tan Rou patiently explained to Jiang Min, “That would make you feel a bit better.”

“I won’t go!” Jiang Min resisted again, muttering, “I won’t go anywhere.”

Tan Rou couldn’t let Jiang Min continue this way; she gave Jiang Min an injection, knocking her out, quickly carried her to the dressing room to change clothes, and then drove her to the hospital for a blood transfusion.

Zhuang Liu had already arranged everything at the hospital, which was a private hospital owned by the Zhuang family, very safe, with no disturbances allowed.
