Chapter 56: Han Xue Got Shot! (2/2)
After having their lunch, they all went to the pedestrian street and shopped for several hours. Their hands were filled with bags. Even Keke was carrying a bag on her shoulder. The bag was specially bought for her. Of course, Cheng Yu was carrying the most shopping bags, but none of the things inside them belonged to him. This was the responsibility of a man when they shopped with a woman.
Around 4 pm, the ladies were finally satisfied as they walked out of the shopping mall. While doing so, they heard the ambulance siren as it sped over. At this moment, they realized that there was a lot of people in front of them.
Just when they were about to go over and have a look, they noticed that the paramedics had already brought the stretcher out from the crowd and on it laid a woman.
“Ah! It’s Sister Han Xue!” At this moment, Zhao Yunfang cried out in fear.
Previously, he was blocked by the paramedics, so he couldn’t properly see who was on the stretcher. However, Cheng Yu turned his head over again and finally saw the person on the stretcher was actually Han Xue!
Cheng Yu immediately walked up and tried to examine her situation. A doctor reached out his hand and blocked him, ”What are you trying to do? The patient is in a critical condition. Please don’t block the exit.”
Cheng Yu shoved the doctor’s hand away as he pushed him to the side. He saw Han Xue’s eyes were tightly shut, her complexion was pale and the left stomach area was bleeding, which caused her clothes to be covered in red. Her condition didn’t seem very optimistic.
Just as he was about to check her condition, the doctor who was pushed away previously ran back up and blocked Cheng Yu. He let the stretcher through, ”What are you trying to do?! Do you know that the patient is on the verge of death right now? If because of you, the treatment time was delayed, would you be responsible for it?!”
When he saw Han Xue was about to get into the ambulance, Cheng Yu ignored the frustrated doctor and sent a thread of spiritual Qi over when no one was paying attention. With the protection of his spiritual Qi, she should be able to hold on until he went to save her.
When he returned to the side of the trio, Yang Ruoxue asked, ”That’s your friend? How’s her condition?”
“Yes. Her condition doesn’t seem optimistic. But for the time being, her life isn’t in any danger.”
“I didn’t expect to see you here, Young Master Yu. Han Xue got into trouble. You should go and take a look.” At this moment, the eastern district Bureau Chief, Peng Dahai, walked over as he greeted Cheng Yu.
When he saw Peng Dahai’s forehead was filled with sweat and his nervous expression, Cheng Yu asked, ”It’s Bureau Chief Peng. What’s going on? Why was Han Xue injured?”
“Half an hour ago, someone armed with a gun went to that atm over there and hurt someone as he stole away their money. Coincidentally, this was seen by Han Xue who was supposed to be off duty today. You should also know that Han Xue is a straightforward person. Therefore, when she saw the savageness in the criminal, she wanted to fight it out with him. However, the criminal had a gun, and before she even managed to fight it out with him, she was shot by him,” Peng Dahai said with resentment. It was known that Han Xue was a daughter of his old friend. If something were to happen to her, he didn’t know how he was going to explain to him.
“I suppose the robber wasn’t caught yet, right?” Cheng Yu frowned.
“Yes. The robber is on the run currently.”
“Alright. I will bring my friends back first. Oh right, pass me your number. Later, I will make a trip down to the hospital to visit Han Xue. Wait for me in the hospital, I will need your help later on.”

“Ok. I will head to the hospital now. When you are coming over later, give me a call first,” Peng Dahai hurried over to the hospital after he gave Cheng Yu his number. This criminal injured his niece. It was impossible for him not to go over to take a look at the situation.
After they witnessed such an incident, the four of them no longer had the mood to continue their shopping. While Cheng Yu was driving them back, his mood was very gloomy. Although he had left a thread of spiritual Qi on Han Xue’s body, he couldn’t be confident that there might not be a mishap in the process.
At first, he wanted to bring Han Xue away, but the scene was filled with people. It would be troublesome to bring her away. Hence, he could only rely on the spiritual Qi to keep her life away from danger for now.
“You should stop worrying. Don’t you have the reversal pill? Later on, just go there and won’t it be fine?” When she saw Cheng Yu’s complexion was extremely dark, Yang Ruoxue consoled him. Ever since she was acquainted with him, she only saw the side of him talking nonsense and had never seen such an expression before.
“The reversal pill is unable to heal such a serious injury. I am just afraid that those quacks would cause a mishap, and I would no longer be able to save her.”
“Why not just head over there? So as to avoid any mishap from happening in the first place.” When she heard Cheng Yu’s words, Yang Ruoxue suggested.
“No need. They are at the City Hospital. It is on the way back to your house as well. Furthermore, even if I were to head there now, they would have already started treating her in the emergency operation room. They would need at least two hours before finishing the operation.”
After sending Yang Ruoxue home, Cheng Yu sent Zhao Yunfang and Keke back as well. After that, he drove his Lamborghini to the city hospital. On the way there, he sped past innumerable red lights.
Although he didn’t have a close friendship with Han Xue and she had never respected him, Cheng Yu was never bothered by such things. Cheng Yu had always been a self-centered person. No matter what the other person thought of him, if he felt that he liked the girl, he would definitely exhaust all his means to protect them. This is also what a man was supposed to do.
When he arrived at the hospital’s parking, he gave Peng Dahai a call and asked where he was at as Cheng Yu went to the hospital alone.
