Wu Suyun’s mind was filled with Jiang Yunshen. She wanted to stop Jiang Chongjing and couldn’t let him hit Yunshen anymore!
At this moment, she couldn’t care less. It was completely a mother’s instinct to love and protect her son. She rushed to the table beside her, grabbed the fruit knife on the fruit plate, and ran towards Jiang Chongjing.
Jiang Chongjing bent down and grabbed Jiang Yunshen’s hand, about to force him to sign when his body suddenly stiffened. He felt a chill on his back and something quickly flowed out.
He turned around and looked at Wu Suyun’s pale and terrified face in disbelief.
Wu Suyun held the fruit knife tightly with both hands. Although her hands were trembling, her eyes were very firm.
“You—”
Jiang Chongjing had just said a word when Wu Suyun took a step back. The Imife in her hand was pulled out, and scarlet blood splattered everywhere, splashing onto her face. It was hot but quickly cooled down.
Jiang Chongjing’s tall body swayed and fell to the ground. Blood kept flowing out of the wound on his back, which was eye-catching.
Wu Suyun’s eyes that were filled with tears were red. She took a deep breath and bit her lip as she cried, “I won’t let a beast like you hurt Yunshen. You’re a beast. ”
Jiang Chongjing realized something and wanted to escape, but the wound on his back was too painful. He couldn’t even stand up and could only crawl away in a sorry state.
His hands that were stained with his own blood flowed down onto the floor, leaving blobs of bloody handprints.
Everyone had a wild beast locked up in their hearts. Usually, they had rationality and human nature to suppress it, but once a corner of the cage where the wild beast was locked up was revealed, the wild beast would follow the gap and bite out a piece of freedom.
Wu Suyun was no exception. After suffering for a long time, her suppressed emotions erupted at this moment. Her evil image of human nature seemed to have been liberated.
Her weakness and inferiority had turned into the fangs of a wild beast at this moment. She stabbed Jiang Chongjing again and again, not stopping until he died.
Jiang Yunshen had long fainted and lost consciousness. Jiang Chongjing was lying not far away, his long arms stretched out as his eyes stared at the door, the emptiness in his pupils were filled with the desire for life.
The knife in Wu Suyun’s hand fell to the ground with a clang. She was covered in blood and trembling.
Realizing what she had done, she began to cry. One moment, she was crying, and one moment, she was laughing…
Her pitiful and sad life was finally over.
When the ambulance arrived and paramedics pushed open the door, they saw such a shocking scene.
A young man lay on the ground, on the verge of death. As for the other middle-aged man, his eyes were wide open as he reached for the door. He had long died a tragic death.
The room was filled with a thick and pungent smell of blood, like rusted iron cutting through everyone’s skin, as if the most potent chemicals were inhaled into their hearts and lungs, corroding their organs and tearing them apart.
Jiang Yunshen was sent to the hospital, and Jiang Chongjing was sent to the mortuary.
When Jiang Yanshen received the news and rushed over, Lin Qingqian also happened to rush over.
“How’s Yunshen?” Lin Qingqian asked.
Jiang Yanshen shook his head. “His condition is not known yet.”
Lin Qingqian did not ask further and went to the emergency room with him to wait.
Half an hour later, the door of the resuscitation room opened. Jiang Yanshen walked forward and asked coldly, “How’s my brother?”
The doctor took off his mask and said unhurriedly, “The patient’s life isn’t in danger, but there are many whip wounds on his body. He still needs time to recuperate. ”
Jiang Yanshen narrowed his eyes and remained silent.
Lin Qingqian heaved a sigh of relief and held his cold fingertips, comforting him. “It’s good that Jiang Yunshen is fine.”
Jiang Yanshen turned his head to look at her and nodded lightly.
Jiang Yunshen was pushed out by the nurse and transferred to the ward. Lin Qingqian followed him the entire time and instructed Song Qin to go through the hospitalization procedures.
Jiang Yanshen and Lu Yuan still needed to deal with Jiang Chongjing’s death.
The news of the Jiang Family’s Second Master being stabbed to death by his wife couldn’t be suppressed no matter what. All they could do now was to try their best to reduce the coverage of the news and prevent Jiang Yunshen from being disturbed by the media.
For this, Jiang Yanshen sent four bodyguards to guard the ward. Other than the doctors and nurses, no one was allowed to approach the ward.
They still had to inform the old lady in Jiang City.
Outside the window, the daylight gradually dimmed, and the lingering sunlight from the west appeared like a blood-red gaping mouth, as if it wanted to devour the entire city in one gulp.
The lights in the ward were not turned on yet. The lights were a little dim, and the air was filled with the smell of disinfectant.
Jiang Yunshen groaned at first, then slowly opened his eyes…
Lin Qingqian put down her phone and turned on the light to look at him.
“You’re awake. Don’t move around. You’ll pull on your wounds.”
Jiang Yunshen was stunned for a few seconds. He looked down and saw that his body was covered in bandages. There were bandages on his stomach, arms, and even his legs.
His throat felt hoarse, like it was being pricked by needles. Finally, he managed to squeeze out a rough sentence. “Where—where’s my mother?”
He seemed to have seen his mother before he lost consciousness.
Lin Qingqian paused in her action of pouring water and quickly reacted. She said gently, “Your injuries are very serious and you need to recuperate well.”
Jiang Yunshen looked up at her, his breathing quickening as he repeated with difficulty, “W-where did my mother go?”
Since he was so seriously injured, his mother would definitely be here.
Lin Qingqian’s eyes dimmed slightly as she held the cup and did not speak.
Without another word, Jiang Yunshen moved to pull out the infusion needle.
Lin Qingqian was shocked and hurriedly put down the cup to hold his hand.
“Your mother… has passed away.”
Jiang Yunshen was stunned for a moment before shaking his head in disbelief.
“No, that’s impossible…”
His hoarse voice trembled.
He wanted to get off the bed, but every time he tried to move, his bones would hurt and he felt like he was about to be torn apart.
Lin Qingqian pressed his shoulder with all her might. “Jiang Yunshen, calm down…
“Let go of me… Let go of me… I’m going to look for my mother. Lin Qingqian, let go of me…”
It was unknown where he got the strength to push Lin Qingqian away. He grabbed the tubes and removed them, sitting up to get off the bed…
Lin Qingqian staggered two steps and finally stabilized herself. Seeing that he was about to get off the bed, she went forward without thinking and slapped him.
“Jiang Yunshen, are you done fooling around?”
Her clear voice was very intimidating. Jiang Yunshen was immediately stunned by her, and his eyes turned red.
He looked like an aggrieved and angry little monster.
Lin Qingqian took a deep breath and bit her lip. “Your mother did it to save you. She wanted you to be fine, but look at you now.”
“Where can you go? What can you do?”
Her every word was like a whip that landed on Jiang Yunshen’s face. He was ashamed and couldn’t say anything. He gritted his teeth tightly, and something in his eyes gushed out desperately.
Lin Qingqian supported his unsteady body. “Lie down. I’ll tell you slowly after you lie down.”
Jiang Yunshen was like a soulless puppet that she helped lie down. Tears kept flowing out of his closed eyes.
Lin Qingqian stood at the side and hesitated before saying, “According to what I know, your father drugged you and wanted you to sign the agreement to sell your shares, but you refused. He used violence on you…
So after calling an ambulance, she jumped down from the 28th floor.”
Jiang Yunshen bit the corner of his lips tightly, but there was no reaction even when he bled. He raised his scarred arm to block his eyes, but he couldn’t stop the tears that kept flowing.
“Your mother is a good mother. She used all her strength to protect you. Her only hope is that you can live well and safely.”
After saying this, Lin Qingqian turned around and walked out of the ward. The moment she closed the door, she heard uncontrollable wails in the ward.
It was heart-wrenching and soul shattering.
Lin Qingqian closed the door and didn’t rush to call the doctor and nurses. Instead, she leaned against the wall and listened to the usually arrogant young man in the ward cry like a helpless child through the door.
When there was no more movement in the ward, Lin Qingqian asked the bodyguard to call the doctor.
Jiang Yunshen’s body was already weak, so how could he withstand such a blow? He fainted again.
The doctor checked his body to confirm that there was no problem, and the nurse gave him another infusion.
In order to ensure his health, the doctor gave him a stabilizer and ensured that he would not wake up tonight and could rest well.
Lin Qingqian stayed in the ward for a while longer before she received a call from Lu Yuan saying that Old Madam Jiang had returned and slapped Jiang Yanshen in public.
Without hesitation, she immediately asked Chen Mu to send her back to the Jiang residence.
Half an hour later, Lin Qingqian rushed into the house in her high heels but didn’t see anyone.
The servant said that the old lady had gone to the hospital, and Jiang Yanshen was in the ancestral hall.
Lin Qingqian turned around and walked out towards the ancestral hall not far away.
The lights in the ancestral hall were not switched on, and only some candles were lit. Because the door was not closed, Lin Qingqian saw the figure kneeling in front of the memorial tablet from afar.
Jiang Yanshen probably heard footsteps. When she walked up to him, he turned his head to look at her. “You’re here.”
The five red finger marks on his left cheek could still be vaguely seen.
Lin Qingqian squatted down, her bright eyes filled with heartache. “Why did Grandma hit you? This isn’t your fault.”
Jiang Chongjing was inhumane and could even be so ruthless to his own son. Wu Suyun killed him to protect Jiang Yunshen. This matter couldn’t be blamed on Jiang Yanshen.
She reached out to touch his cheek, but she retracted her hand for fear of hurting him.
Jiang Yanshen’s thin lips moved slightly. “Grandma is blaming me.”
“Blame you for what?” Lin Qingqian was puzzled. “It’s not like you forced Jiang Chongjing to death.”
Jiang Yanshen lowered his eyes and did not speak, as if he was thinking about something.
Lin Qingqian knew that he did not want to say, so she didn’t ask further. “I’ll get you an ice pack to put on your face.”
She stood up and was about to leave when she suddenly felt a force on her wrist. She lowered her head and fell into Jiang Yanshen’s lake-like eyes.
“Stay with me for a while, okay?” His voice rose slightly with a hint of pleading.
Lin Qingqian hesitated for a moment before squatting down again.
Jiang Yanshen brought the futon beside him for her to sit on, but Lin Qingqian didn’t sit. “Kneel on the mat, or your knee will hurt.”
“Grandma doesn’t allow it,” Jiang Yanshen said helplessly.
Lin Qingqian was stunned for a moment before asking, “Why?”
Why did she slap him in public and punish him to kneel in the ancestral hall?
