Chapter 247 - Afternoon Fright (2/2)
Xia Lei subconsciously rubbed his very achey waist, his expression odd “Uh, she’s not an easy person to talk to I may not be able to convince her”
Just a day and a half was already so intense - won’t he end up in the hospital if she were to stay for a fortnight?
“Met it I’ll come work at your company sooner or later anyway,” said Annina
Xia Lei let out an internal sigh of relief “Giveand Boss shi+ You should be able to come to my company after we conclude our talks”
“Really? That’s great! I’ll finish these plans up as soon as I can” Annina hugged Xia Lei in exciterew nervous but fortunately, his phone rang
It was Xia Xue He accepted the call and her voice full of anxiety and nervousness i, he… He…”
Xia Lei’s heart sank “What happened to Lu Sheng? Calm down, speak slowly”
Xia Xue cried over the line, “He, he’s been stabbed Come, quick I, I’m so scared!”
“Where are you?”
“We are at the Couples’ Road, near the entrance of the Dahua Market We planned to go to Fox Island but so ht him but he was stabbed in an instant Brother, I’m scared… Wuuuh…” Xia Xue sobbed and could not continue
“Don’t be scared Call for the a up and got up to walk out the door as he said, “Annina, soo out Callhappens”
“What happened?” asked Annina worriedly
“I’ll tell you when I’m back Stay inside I’alloped on the road at up to 150 kh - he wanted to sprout wings and fly to Xia Xue
He did not see who had tried to kidnap Xia Xue but the youngwas a Special Forces retiree, knew grappling and even did three years of Wing Chun A man like him could not be defeated by anyone but he had been stabbed instantly How strong had his opponent been?
Xia Lei felt an invisible pressure and his anger billowed fiercely 'How dare you make a move on my sister! I have only one sister - she’s my life! I don’t care if you’re from the Gu clan or the CIA You harm my sister and I’ll have your life!'
If the perpetrator was thatuess was the Gu clan The CIA’s target was hi Xia Xue This was not the best guess but he was roughly 80 sure If he took the CIA out of the picture, then it could only be the Gu clan
Gu Ke-Wu and Gu Ke-Wen’s face appeared in his head He gritted his teeth and his expression grew savage He wanted to kill!
Xia Xue called again before he got to Couples’ Road, telling hiotten into the a and they were at the hospital in the area
Xia Lei got to that hospital in twentyfor him as soon as he opened the door and walked into the lobby
Xia Xue rushed into his ar loudly, “Brother… Whuuuh…”
“Hush, don’t be scared, Brother’s here No one can harm you,” consoled Xia Lei
Some of the fear in Xia Xue went away after she cried and she calmed
“Tell Brother what that person looked like,” said Xia Lei
“He covered his face I did not see his face but his body is like yours He’s very strong He, he’s scary,” said Xia Xue
This short description was enough for Xia Lei to confirpictures of hi man’s body was very similar to his
A police officer walked over “Miss, I have a few questions for you Please assist in our investigation”
Xia Xue looked at Xia Lei
“Go on I’ll go see Lu Sheng,” said Xia Lei
Xia Xue ith the police officer and Xia Lei went to the doors of the operating roouard by the doors The doors were closed and there was no way to see Lu Sheng, as undergoing eency operations to save his life
Xia Lei’s left eye twitched and the scene in the operating roo on Lu Sheng and several nurses were close by, assisting Lu Sheng lay on the operating table with his eyes closed and a respirator over his nose and mouth He had three stab wounds on his body - one in his lower abdomen, one on his arm and one below his heart
The stab wound below his heart was obviously thewould be dead if it had been just one centi I will avenge you!’ Xia Lei inner voice was as cold as ice
