Chapter 735 - Was Betrayed (1/2)
After Xia Ruoxin hung up, she saw on the couch and accompanied Shen Wei. Everyone in the clinic had gone home, but she did not dare to leave or bring Shen Wei out of the place. Regardless of Shen Wei’s injury, Shen Wei had already told her before the surgery that she should not leak her tracks to anyone, including Brother San. Everything should wait until she wakes up.
However, she did not know that a bunch of people was anxiously searching for something.
Lin Qing stood outside the clinic for a really long time but did not see anyone coming out. The sky was getting darker so when he turned around to leave, he met a few fierce men on the streets.
These people did not pay any attention to a student like Lin Qing, but one of them called out to him.
“Boy, come over.”
Lin Qing stopped in his tracks and walked over. That man took out a hundred-dollar bill and placed it in front of Lin Qing.
“Tell us, did you see an injured person who is pretty and has long hair?” he asked Lin Qing. His eyes were filled with murderous intent, and his mouth was raised in a manner that suggests he had bad intentions.
Lin Qing shook his head. “I didn’t see anyone.”
The man shoved the money to Lin Qing’s hand before patting him on his head. “This hundred dollars is for you. Remember, don’t tell anyone that you’ve seen us; if not, I’ll twist your head off.”
Lin Qing held the note tightly and pressed his lips together before turning around and walking away. Actually, he knew who they were looking for. It was the woman that Xia Ruoxin brought away. She had an injury on her stomach; he had seen her fingers stained with blood, and she also had curly hair.
However, these people were not good. If he said it…
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, turned around, and yelled to the men not far away.
“Uncle, are you looking for an Auntie with an injury on her stomach?”
The men turned their heads over and walked towards him in big steps before carrying him up. “Kid, say. Where did you see her?”
Lin Qing pointed towards the front. “There’s a clinic in front; they’re there.” He said ‘they’ and not ‘she’.
“That’s a good boy.” The man who gave Lin Qing money took out a few more hundred-dollar bills and stuffed it in his school bag. Then, he eyed the people beside him and ran towards the clinic with big strides.
They knew that children would not lie. Yes, children should not lie; but that did not mean that every child was like that.
Lin Qing released his hand, and the hundred-dollar bills dropped on the floor. He walked in front slowly and suddenly ran like a maniac continuously, allowing the wind to hit his face bringing about pain.
He ran.
He ran and ran, without a care about what happened behind him.
At that time—in the clinic, Xia Ruoxin was resting against the wall and was starting to get sleepy. All of a sudden, Shen Wei opened her eyes and pulled Xia Ruoxin’s hand.
Xia Ruoxin was alerted, too. When she was about to say something, Shen Wei put her hand on her lip. “Shh. Don’t say anything; someone’s coming.” She pointed to the inside. “Hide first and don’t come out.”
When she finished talking, she knitted her eyebrows in discomfort; her injury must have acted up again.
