Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 291
Chapter 291 He Is a Decent and Righteous Man
Jiang Kaiwei’s expression changed. He had thought of everything, but he did not expect Lei Yajing to do this. He raised his gun and did not fire it. “If you do this, you will also get killed!”
“It doesn’t matter. I’ve lived a pretty shit life. With the two of you getting killed with me, I am satisfied!”
“Let’s talk, don’t do anything stupid!”
Lei Yajing smiled sarcastically. “The stupidest thing I did was to fall in love with you. For so many years, my brother has exerted himself to the utmost to attend to you. I have been bossed around by you and never dared to say no to you. But we ended up like this. Since you want to destroy us, let’s die together!”
Brother Lei leaned against the wall and shouted at Lei Yajing, “Bitch, how dare you play tricks on me? I won’t spare you even if I become a ghost!”
Lei Yajing sneered, “If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being incompetent. We have caught them, but you almost lose them and the money. You men are all idiots!”
She raised the remote control and was about to press the button. Everyone was so scared that their faces turned pale.
Jiang Kaiwei tried to persuade her, “Lei Yajing, don’t do anything stupid. Let’s have a further talk. I will promise you anything you want. As long as you put down the remote control, I can get someone to save your brother.”
Lei Yajing smiled strangely. “I don’t want anything. I just want all of you to die!”
As she spoke, she pressed her thumb down. Jiang Kaiwei did not have time to think. He pulled Xia Xiaowan and ran towards the door. Hearing a loud “bang” behind him, he leaped up and set Xia Xiaowan under his body. He felt a wave of heat coming towards his back. What followed was a sharp pain from his legs and back. The surroundings were filled with flames, accompanied by crackling sounds of burning. There was also choking smoke. He struggled to prop himself up and weakly called out to the woman below him, “Xiaowan, run, run…”
Xia Xiaowan got up and shouted at him in panic. He felt that she was calling his name or scolding him for being stupid. He shook twice, grinned, and wanted to laugh. But his vision suddenly went dark and he fainted completely.
Xia Xiaowan was lost and hurriedly checked his breathing. Fortunately, he still breathed. She wrapped Jiang Kaiwei’s arm around her neck and dragged him out slowly. They were only two or three meters away from the door. But these two or three meters were like a natural chasm that was difficult to cross.
There was only one thought in Xia Xiaowan’s mind. Even if she had to die, she would drag Jiang Kaiwei out of the door. The door was right in front of her. Step by step, she gritted her teeth and used all the strength in her body to move forward. Jiang Kaiwei, who was unconscious, was leaning on her shoulder and was as heavy as a mountain.
Xia Xiaowan’s legs were shaking all the time. She really couldn’t drag him further. When she was about to reach the door, her body had already reached its limit. As her legs went soft, they fell heavily together. The tall and strong man pressed her against the door slot. She felt her ribs broken as her body pressed against the bulging gate slot.
She couldn’t even breathe. The burning fire was moving toward them. The flames raged and swallowed everything. Xia Xiaowan pushed the man on her, but she couldn’t push him away.
Looking at the slowly approaching fire, she almost despaired, thinking that she and Jiang Kaiwei would die together in the end!
She slowly closed her eyes and hugged the man’s waist, thinking that this was also good. Although their birthdays were different, they would die on the same day. It was also a kind of happiness to die with him!
************
The room was very quiet. There were white walls and white sheets. The bright sunlight shone on the windowsill. The window was half open, and the curtains swayed as the wind blew. The sound of birds chirping was vaguely heard. The chirping sound was clear and crisp.
The sky was still hot. Only in the early morning did people feel comfortable and pleased. Xia Xiaowan stretched herself and looked at the fluid in the infusion bottle that flew slowly and evenly drop by drop into the drip chamber.
The man on the bed was still unconscious. The wounds on his face had already been treated. Because the weather was too hot, the wounds were not bound up with adhesive bandages. So those wounds, either horizontal or vertical, were exposed as if he was just taken back from the battle line.
In just one night, a layer of stubbles appeared on his chin, making him masculine. In fact, Jiang Kaiwei had the best appearance among the young masters because he had a stunning mother. Xia Xiaowan had seen her a few times before.
The last time Xia Xiaowan had seen her was at Jiang Kaiwei’s father’s funeral. At that time, she was in black clothes and had a black veil on her face and a white velvet flower beside her ear. Although everyone was dressed in black that day, no one could overshadow her elegance. What impressed Xia Xiaowan the most was her mournful and charming eyes behind the black veil. There were tears that flickered, making people unable to help but look at her. Back then, Xia Xiaowan thought that she was indeed a stunning beauty. Even when she was sad, she was so beautiful!
When Jiang Kaiwei was quiet, he was like his mother. Although his eyes were closed, Xia Xiaowan still felt that he was handsome.
In her impression, when she was young, Jiang Kaiwei was a doll-like child, and he was not very compatible. When she saw him at the age of sixteen, the doll had already grown into a handsome young man. She had never seen such a good-looking boy. His facial features were perfect. He was arrogant and flamboyant, indifferent to everything, and did not care about anything. So she could not help but be attracted by him.
She leaned against the bed and looked at him carefully. When she saw his thick long eyelashes, she was almost jealous. Why were his eyelashes thicker than hers? She really wanted to gently stroke them with her hand, but she was afraid of waking him up. She stopped halfway and retracted her hand. Thinking about what happened last night, she felt it was like a dream. Her life experience was rich, but it had never been so thrilling this time.
She was kidnapped. Jiang Kaiwei alone drove a truck with 100 million cash to save her. He wore showy clothes and carried those weapons. It was like he was acting in a movie! Xia Xiaowan felt that it was ridiculous when she thought about it now.
However, Jiang Kaiwei was the only one who could do such a childish thing. Seeing Jiang Kaiwei going out in long clothes and pants on a hot day, Butler Yan was suspicious. Furthermore, Jiang Kaiwei wore the set of special clothes, making him feel that something was wrong. When he went to the secret room to take a look, he found that a few guns and other items were taken away. He immediately got panicked and quickly called Shen Li.
The butler was not the only one who was suspicious. The person who was even more suspicious was President Zhou. The boss drove a truck with 100 million cash and left alone at night. No matter how he thought about it, he felt something was wrong. Could it be that the company was going to collapse and the boss was going to run away with money overnight? But thinking about it, he felt it was not right. Running away with a truck of cash was cumbersome! The target was so big that the boss would be caught wherever he went!
Although Jiang Kaiwei told him to keep it secret, he was afraid! After thinking about it, he still called General Manager Shen.
When Shen Li received the two calls and analyzed them with his sharp brain, he immediately realized that something had happened. Jiang Kaiwei’s cell phone was installed with a GPS device. Shen Li used his phone to search and found that Jiang Kaiwei was in a place in the suburbs. Since he did not know what Jiang Kaiwei’s purpose was, he did not dare to call the police. He asked Ling Yun to go with him with his men. Then, they heard a loud explosion when they were about to arrive at the place. They quickly ran over and saw two people lying at the door. It was Jiang Kaiwei and Xia Xiaowan. So they quickly sent them to the hospital.
Shen Li told Xia Xiaowan about this later. Xia Xiaowan woke up in the car on the way. She only had some minor wounds and was not seriously injured. However, Jiang Kaiwei had serious injuries. His face was bloody and his legs were injured. They even couldn’t see the color of one of his trousers clearly as it was stained with blood.
She was saved. Instead of being happy, she cried, because it seemed that Jiang Kaiwei would die at any time. When she arrived at the hospital, she found that Jiang Kaiwei just got minor injuries in his face. What got injured seriously was the leg. It should be a fracture or a bony crack. There was a burn in his waist, which was not too serious. But it was very troublesome to treat it.
After knowing that Jiang Kaiwei was not in danger, Xia Xiaowan called home to report that she was safe. The Xia family was shocked. They only knew that she had not come back but did not expect such a big thing to happen. They hurriedly ran to the hospital.
After knowing Jiang Kaiwei’s magnificent feat, the Xia family had different reactions. Madam Xia wiped away her tears and said, “Kaiwei saved Xiaowan. I thank him. But it’s best for these two children not to be together. When I think of how Xiaowan looked back then, I still feel sad now.”
Xia Deren had always had a good impression of Jiang Kaiwei. Although he also blamed Jiang Kaiwei for what happened back then, he felt that Xia Xiaowan was too stubborn. Looking at the unconscious Jiang Kaiwei, he was greatly moved. He shook his head and said emotionally, “He is a decent and righteous man!”
Xia Nanze was silent for a long time. Then he suddenly laughed softly, “Decent and righteous? I think he is stupid! If he doesn’t do it well, he will harm Xiaowan and himself.”
“He was a little reckless. Fortunately, the heavens blessed them. They came back alive. Nanze, when you meet Kaiwei in the future, you should be polite to him. After all, he saved your younger sister. Since Xiaowan does not hate him, you should be magnanimous.”
Xia Nanze did not say anything and just looked at Xia Xiaowan. Xia Xiaowan lowered her head guiltily. Her injuries were not serious and she did not need to stay in the hospital, but she wanted to stay. She was still worried as Jiang Kaiwei had not woken up. She was also afraid that he would be worried if he did not see her when he woke up at night.
She lived in the room next door last night. She came over early this morning to see him. But after she had been sitting there for half an hour, Jiang Kaiwei had not woken up. He even did not move at all. She felt flustered for no reason. Suddenly, she remembered what Gu Nianbin looked like when he was unconscious. She gently pushed Jiang Kaiwei. “Wake up, wake up! It has been a long time since the sun rose!”
Jiang Kaiwei did not move and had no reaction at all. She was a little anxious and shook him again. But Jiang Kaiwei was still unconscious. Xia Xiaowan was scared and ran out to find the doctor. The doctor checked him carefully and said that all his indicators were normal. There should be no problem. But logically, he should wake up at this time.
The whole morning passed. Jiang Kaiwei still hadn’t woken up. Xia Xiaowan was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof. But there was nothing she could do. When the doctor came to check him again, she told the doctor about Gu Nianbin’s case and asked if the same case would happen to Jiang Kaiwei. The doctor said that he wasn’t sure and she could only wait.
Xia Xiaowan remembered that when she took care of Gu Nianbin in the past, the doctor told her to talk to him. So she held Jiang Kaiwei’s hand and began to talk to him. She began from the time she saw him when she was sixteen years old. It was her best memory. Once the precious scroll of the memory was unfolded, the scene came to her. It was like the scene of a movie, appearing clearly in front of her eyes.
Her voice was low, slow, and clear. She said tirelessly, “You leaned against the motorcycle. Behind you was a sky full of clouds. Your slender and tall figure was revealed. When I looked at you like that, it was like I was suddenly hit by an electric current. At that moment, I knew that I had fallen in love with you…”
She said it very emotionally. She put Jiang Kaiwei’s hand in her palm and looked down at the bedsheet as if she was immersed in the memories of the past. After a while, when she sighed and looked up, she found that the man was looking at her with bright eyes.
