Chapter 422 Blame
In order to obtain a large sum of money, the kidnappers chose to engage in a fierce struggle with Duan Yujing.
The scene was thrilling, with both sides exchanging blows and refusing to give an inch.
In order to protect Li Yan, Duan Yujing was ambushed by Xu Rou during a fierce struggle with the kidnappers.
In that instant, time seemed to freeze, and the air became heavy.
Filled with madness and hatred, Xu Rou raised the stick in her hand and smashed it hard against the back of Duan Yujing's head.
With a muffled thud, Duan Yujing's body jolted violently before he collapsed like a kite with a broken string.
Li Yan watched this scene in horror, her heart seemed to stop beating, and her breathing became rapid and disordered.
"Yujing!"
Li Yan screamed in anguish as she rushed toward Duan Yujing, tears streaming down her face like a burst dam.
With trembling hands, she gently stroked Duan Yujing's face, trying to confirm whether he was still alive.
Duan Yujing's eyes were tightly closed, his face was as pale as paper, and the blood slowly flowing from the back of his head stained the ground red.
Li Yan felt as if her heart had been pierced by a thousand sharp blades, and she cried uncontrollably. Helplessness and despair seemed to gather in the air around her.
Just then, Gu Tingyan arrived with his men, his expression anxious and angry.
When he saw the scene before him, a surge of intense anger welled up inside him.
"Li Yan!"
Gu Tingyan shouted and rushed to Li Yan's side, supporting her as she swayed.
Li Yan's body trembled like a leaf in the wind, fear and sorrow devouring her soul.
“Ah Yan, Yu Jing, he…” Li Yan’s voice choked with sobs, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Gu Tingyan held Li Yan's hand tightly: "Don't be afraid, we'll take Duan Yujing to the hospital right away."
The sound of an ambulance siren grew louder as it approached.
Medical staff quickly got out of the car, lifted Duan Yujing onto a stretcher, and sent her to the hospital.
Gu Tingyan helped the unsteady Li Yan up, glanced at the people he had brought, and gestured for them to handle the aftermath.
Afterwards, Gu Tingyan and Li Yan went to the hospital together in the ambulance.
The atmosphere in the hospital was tense and oppressive.
The doctors were busy moving around, and the sounds of various instruments mingled together, filling one with unease.
Li Yan sat on a chair outside the operating room, her eyes vacant and helpless, her hands clasped tightly together, praying incessantly that Duan Yujing would be safe and sound.
"Yujing, you must wake up. Please, don't leave me." Her voice was weak and trembling.
Tears flowed endlessly, as if they would never cease.
Grandpa Duan also rushed to the hospital, his steps were a little unsteady, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have deepened.
"How is Yujing?" Old Master Duan asked anxiously.
Li Yan looked up at Grandpa Duan, tears welling up again. "Yu Jing... he's still being treated."
Grandpa Duan's expression grew even more somber, his eyes revealing deep worry.
But he didn't blame Li Yan; instead, he gently patted her shoulder.
"Don't worry, Yujing will be fine."
However, Miss Shen, who came with Old Master Duan, did not think so.
Jealousy and resentment flashed in her eyes as she pointed at Li Yan and loudly accused her.
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, Duan Yujing wouldn't have turned out like this. You're a jinx!"
Li Yan was already feeling guilty, and the grievances and pain overwhelmed her instantly.
She did not refute Miss Shen's words, but silently shed tears.
Upon hearing Miss Shen's words, Old Master Duan was immediately enraged.
He glared fiercely at Miss Shen and shouted loudly.
"Shut up! How can you say that about Li Yan? This matter has nothing to do with her."
