The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage - Chapter 424

Chapter 424: Life And Death Unkown

In the main hall of the Imperial Hotel, many guests who had just experienced a life and death disaster collapsed to the ground.

The circulation of weapons was completely prohibited in Jiuzhou. This was the first time most people had witnessed such a scene.

Who would have thought that someone would dare to go against the Jiang family like this, and the murderer even attempted to kidnap old master Jiang…

He had even picked Jiang Zhiyuan’s 70th birthday in such an arrogant manner!

The poisonous gas in the hall had almost dissipated, but the fear in the hearts of the guests still linegered. Many doctors and nurses walked into the hall and sent the guests to the nearby hospitals.

Now that everyone was busy saving people, they did not have strict control over public opinion. Once such a big matter spread, public opinion on the Internet turned upside down.

“I really didn’t expect that such a good birthday banquet would turn into a funeral…”

“How could someone carry a gun at such an occasion? Something like this happened at Dynasty Hotel. I’m afraid that there’s a mole.”

“Light a candle for the management of Dynasty Hotel.”

“I hope that no one is in trouble. I wish for peace.”

“I don’t envy women who marry into high-class families anymore. Such a life is simply too scary. Without people, what’s the point of being rich and powerful?”

“Bullsh*t! If the young master is willing to marry me, I won’t be afraid even if someone points a gun at my head…”

…

There were many hospitals in the area of Imperial Hotel, and the most famous Zhaohua Hospital in Jiuzhou was also nearby.

It was clearly not far away yet the speed of the ambulance was not satisfactory, and Su Wan felt that every minute and every second was immensely torturous.

In her clear black and white eyes, there were too many unspeakable wounds. Her heart felt as if it was being cut by a knife. It was as if it was being torn apart, and blood was dripping.

Su Wan sat at the side in a daze. Her eyes were blurred by the boiling tears.

Grandmother…

Those drops of tears occasionally fell on Jiang Xuecheng’s hand. The scorching temperature made Jiang Xuecheng’s throat feel as if it was blocked by something. He let out a sigh and did not know how to comfort Su Wan.

He reached out his hand and wiped the tears off Su Wan’s face.

He did not like to see Su Wan cry.

“Don’t be afraid.”

Jiang Xuecheng’s pale lips opened. He thought of a thousand words to say, but in the end, he only said three of them calmly.

Jiang Xuecheng’s palm covered Su Wan’s palm, trying to give her some strength.

After about five minutes, the ambulance finally arrived at the destination and stopped at the first aid building of Zhaohua Hospital.

The doctors and nurses swiftly carried Lin Xuan down on a stretcher and rushed to the emergency room.

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng quickly followed. Because the elevator had limited capacity, Su Wan could only watch Lin Xuan’s figure disappear into the elevator.

The emergency room was on the fifth floor.

Seeing that the next elevator was still on the thirteenth floor, Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng glanced at it and immediately ran to the stairs on the side.

Perhaps because she had too many worries in her heart, Su Wan ran exceptionally fast. Jiang Xuecheng was a little surprised.

When the two of them reached the fifth floor, Lin Xuan, who was being carried on a stretcher, just happened to get out of the elevator and was sent to the emergency room.

Su Wan’s eyes suddenly lit up. She rushed forward, but was stopped by the nurse.

“Miss, you can’t go in. The patient needs emergency treatment. You may wait outside.”

As soon as the other party finished speaking, Su Wan watched as the stretcher disappeared from her sight.

Soon, the emergency room door was closed, and the red light at the top of the room lit up.

Su Wan held the nurse’s hand tightly, and her pale face was filled with anxiety.

“Nurse, will my grandmother be okay?”

The nurse saw that Su Wan’s face was still stained with traces of blood, and she pursed her lips awkwardly.

The patient who had just been pushed in was very old, and her body was not in good condition to begin with. Furthermore, she had been shot in the abdomen…

To be honest, the chances of her being saved were not high.

The nurse’s lips trembled for a moment, but in the end, she still thought of a more tactful way to phrase it.

“Miss, you have to believe that the doctors will do their best to save the patient. As for the outcome, you have to be mentally prepared.”

As she spoke, the nurse nodded at Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng before leaving quickly.

Again with the thing about being mentally prepared…

She knew that this was not the hospital’s fault. If grandmother had not jumped in to save her, she would not have been shot by the waitress!

Su Wan’s heart ached, and her red almond-shaped eyes were brimmed with tears again.

Flashbacks of her childhood seemed to appear before her eyes. When grandmother was young, she was also a gentle beauty from Jiangnan.

She could make very exquisite tea and snacks, embroider very beautiful patterns, and cut paper. Every year during the New Year, red window flowers would be pasted on the windows and doors to symbolize good luck.

Su Wan remembered that when she was very young, she liked to play on the swing. Her mother was afraid that she would fall and would not let her swing. It was her grandmother who pushed her even higher.

At that time, the sky was much clearer than it was now. When the swing was pushed up, it was as if it could touch the blue sky.

Su Wan liked eating candied haws but her mother was afraid that she would have cavities. It was her grandmother who secretly took her out and bought many candied haws.

Su Wan still remembered the taste of those candied haws. Because she ate too much, she had a sore tooth.

…

Su Wan’s vision went dark. She only felt that the world was spinning. Her body suddenly could not exert any strength and almost fell to the side.

Jiang Xuecheng quickly held her up.”Wan Wan, is the poison taking effect? Let me get you registered for a checkup.”

Su Wan shook her head weakly at Jiang Xuecheng. She had not inhaled much of the poison. Her body was fine, but her heart was too exhausted.

Jiang Xuecheng restrained his expression and brought Su Wan to sit on a chair outside the operating theater.

Jiang Xuecheng moved Su Wan’s head over and leaned it against his shoulder. Then, he slowly patted Su Wan’s back, trying to make her breathing smoother.

But he knew better than anyone that this was just a psychological comfort.

Jiang Xuecheng’s slender brows furrowed, and his eyes were as cold as snow.

What happened at Dynasty Hotel this time was really too shocking. No matter who was behind it, they had to pay the price of blood.

Jiang Xuecheng looked at the red light outside the operating theater, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

He actually liked Lin Xuan very much. When he first went to visit the Xie family, Lin Xuan was the first to accept him and strongly support his marriage with Su Wan.

Now, this loving elder was lying in the operating theater, the state of her life unknown.

Jiang Xuecheng clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were filled with hostility.

At this moment, an old figure appeared at the entrance of the corridor.

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng looked towards the source of the sound and saw Xie Changfeng walking towards them. His expression was sorrowful. The professor who used to be in high spirits seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

Xie Changfeng had fainted earlier on, but when he woke up from the hospital and found out that Lin Xuan was undergoing surgery, it was truly a bolt from the blue!

Su Wan quickly went up to him. When she saw Xie Changfeng, she looked like she wanted to say something, but she stopped herself.

Xie Changfeng saw her teary-eyed face and tried his best to suppress his emotions. “How is your grandmother?”
