Chapter 123 Shanshan Had an Acciden (1/2)
t
Inside the hospital, A Miao and Ling Lang stood at the door of the ward.
”I've troubled you!” A Miao thanked her shyly.
Ling Lang motioned with her hand. ”You're welcome, it wasn't much trouble.” She looked at the ward. ”She... she's the one from the newspaper?”
”Well, she's Shen Xinglan's sister.” A Miao shrugged her shoulders.
Ling Lang nodded. ”Then what went on today?”
”I don't know.” A Miao frowned.
Before, she had been waiting for Shanshan in the sauna room. After she came in, they steamed together. Shanshan was very enthusiastic and told her about Shen Xinglan when he was a child. A Miao did not refuse, she also wanted to know what Shen Xinglan was like then.
So the two had a pleasant chat. Later on, A Miao went out first to go to the bathroom. After she had taken a bath and changed her clothes, she waited for a long time before Shanshan came out. Then she asked the attendant to take a look.
”You know everything after that.”
Ling Lang knew the boss of the club, and when she went downstairs after their talk, she heard someone shouting that someone suffocated. When she entered, she saw A Miao beating anxiously against the glass door of the steam room.
”Get out of the way!” At that time, Ling Lang shouted that sentence, then picked up a chair next to the door, smashed it open, rushed in, and picked up the young lady.
Shanshan was already unconscious, and A Miao called an ambulance.
”I saw the door of the steam room afterward. It was locked from the outside and the lock cylinder was damaged, so it could not be opened.” Ling Lang looked at A Miao meaningfully.
”What do you want to say?” A Miao's expression became solemn.
Ling Lang was interrupted by Shen Xinglan before she could speak.
”A Miao.” He quickly went over to her. ”Are you OK? How is Shanshan?”
A Miao shook her head. ”I'm fine. Go in and see her, she just woke up.”
Shen Xinglan carefully looked at her for a while and was sure she really was ok, then took a quick glance at Ling Lang.
”Thank you, I heard that you saved her. I owe you my gratitude.”
Ling Lang bent the corners of her mouth. ”I was looking after A Miao's sake. She was almost crying at that time.”
Shen Xinglan took A Miao's hand and looked at her with a worried face. ”Terrifying, wasn't it? Don't go to that place in the future, I'll get you one at home.”
”Shen?” Lil Xi's voice came from ward inside, ”is that you?”
A Miao hurriedly pushed him. ”Go in!”
Only then did Shen Xinglan enter.
”Why are you looking at me like that?” A Miao saw Ling Lang's strange eyes staring at her.
Ling Lang smiled. ”I am relieved to see Shen Xinglan's attitude towards you. At least... he will not suspect you.”
Inside the ward, Shanshan was lying there pale, and upon seeing Shen Xinglan, tears began to flow down.
”Brother Xinglan... Boo-hoo...” she sobbed, ”I thought I was going to die. If I died, I would never see you again.”
Shen Xinglan did not hold her like last time, but sat on the bed and patted her hand.
”Don't talk nonsense, it's alright now.”
Lil Xi looked pale as he stared at Shen Xinglan. ”It's alright now? Do you know that if she had arrived a little later, Shanshan would have become a vegetable.”
The steam room was too hot, and she could not breathe. Having a lack of oxygen for a long time would inevitably affect the cranial nerves.
”Shen, will you protect that woman this time?” Lil Xi's face was cold. ”She locked Shanshan in.”
Shen Xinglan's face sank. ”Watch your words. A Miao would not do that.”
”It's a private room, and no one else went there besides Shanshan.” Lil Xi logically analyzed it. ”She left under the pretext of locking Shanshan in and then informed the staff when the time was almost up.
”If that policeman had not been present today, Shanshan might have died.”
Shen Xinglan gave Shanshan a look, and the latter shook her head with a delicate face. ”I believe it was not sister A Miao. She would not do that to me. Besides, the lock cylinder is not easy to break!”
”Indeed, you don't know what she's capable of.” Lil Xi laughed sarcastically. ”I tell you, that woman...”
”Shut up.” Shen Xinglan's eyes were cold and sharp, looking straight at Lil Xi.
Lil Xi pursed his lips, and the next second, cried out unconvinced, ”She must have done it anyway. What do you think?”
”How do you know about things that the police have not decided yet?”
This sentence was not spoken by Shen Xinglan, but by Ling Lang, who had pushed the door open and came in. A Miao followed behind her, and Shen Xinglan rushed over to grab her.
”Do you have any proof that she didn't do it?” Lil Xi was very aggressive and did not put Ling Lang in his sightline.
Ling Lang threw a USB flash-drive at him. ”My colleague copied it from the surveillance video. You can see for yourself!”
”What about it?” Lil Xi threw the flash drive on the ground. ”Anyway, I believe she will hurt Shanshan.”
It was the first time that he had framed her by pointing at her nose. A Miao stepped forward and said, ”Why would I hurt her?”
”Because you are jealous!”
Lil Xi's words were reciprocated by a chuckle from A Miao. ”And what am I jealous of?”
”You are jealous of Shen's kindness to her and are afraid that Shen does not want you.”
This time, without waiting for A Miao to reply, Shen Xinglan said, ”No one can match A Miao, and I will not treat anyone better than her.”
Ling Lang smiled beside her. She had been observing Shanshan in her hospital bed. Besides seeing her look anxiously at Lil Xi, there was no other reaction.
