After leaving her workplace in the afternoon, Hai Xiaotang never returned home.
Her mobile phone was switched off and there was no way to reach her.
Dongfang Yu had no idea where she had gone and was frantically trying to call her from his home, getting more and more worried by the minute.
It was dark outside.
Just as Dongfang Yu was about to start searching for her, he got a call from Chai Xiyang.
Learning that Hai Xiaotang had been in an accident and was now in the hospital, Dongfang Yu was instantly filled with anxiety and rushed to the hospital!
When Dongfang Yu arrived, Chai Xiyang had already been there
Only Hai Xiaotang lay unconscious on the hospital bed, her head swathed in bandages. Everyone else was standing around in the room.
Dongfang Yu swiftly moved to the side of the bed, bending over to look at her injuries with a worried expression.
“What happened?” His voice was grim, and his face looked troubled.
Chai Xiyang glanced at Qiao Ning, then tried to reassure Dongfang, “I am not completely sure about what happened either. But the doctor says her injuries aren’t severe. She should be fine after a night’s rest.”
“You don’t know why she got hurt?” Dongfang Yu frowned and looked up.
“You should askher.” Chai Xiyang gestured towards Qiao Ning.
Dongfang Yu looked at Qiao Ning, his gaze icy cold.
It had been several years since she last saw him, but he came across as more imposing than ever.
When she was younger, Qiao Ning had met him a few times in the company of Chai Xiyang.
Even then, Dongfang Yu had been a cold, distant figure, a presence which always made her feel nervous.
Now, she felt even more nervous.
“Mr. Dongfang, nice to see you …”
“Are you Qiao Ning?” Dongfang Yu’s brows furrowed in confusion, “What are you doing with Hai Xiaotang? What on Earth is going on?”
“Xiaotang and I met during a flight. We planned together to visit our school today, but then…” Qiao Ning explained everything that had happened in detail. She didn’t dare to hold back any information.
Having learned what had happened, Dongfang Yu seemed even colder.
Hai Xiaotang was indeed reckless, thinking she could fight off a notorious criminal, didn’t she think of the…
Regret and rage filled him at the thought of the potential consequences.
If something terrible had happened to her, he wasn’t sure he could control himself from taking a life.
“Did you get a good look at the criminal’s face?” His voice was icy.
Qiao Ning shook her head and then nodded, “I didn’t get a clear look, but I suspect, suspect…”
“Who?!”
“I suspect it may be a classmate of mine, his name is Wang Qiang.”
Dongfang Yu immediately instructed Chai Xiyang, “Call the police. I want that man arrested immediately! Spare no expense!”
“Okay!” Chai Xiyang called the police and they arrived promptly.
Chai Xiyang and Qiao Ning gave their statements to the police outside the hospital room.
The police asked many detailed questions, which Qiao Ning answered truthfully while seated on a bench.
“I’ve never had an issue with Wang Qiang. His family background is poor. After getting to know him, I helped him out a bit. He did confess his feelings for me once, but I turned him down. I didn’t expect him to go this far…”
The police left after getting all the information. Only Qiao Ning and Chai Xiyang were left in the hallway.
Qiao Ning sat on the bench, head down. Chai Xiyang stood, arms crossed over his chest, leaning against the wall facing her.
She seemed to feel his gaze, and when she looked up, she met his eyes, which were cold and vacant.
There was a mocking undertone in his gaze.
Her heart dropped, “Big Brother…”
“Haven’t I already said not to call me big brother!” Chai Xiyang spoke coldly, his gaze roving over her.
Today, Qiao Ning wore a white t-shirt and denim jeans. Her legs were long and straight, and her slender figure was well-toned.
