“Ah!” Lin Qingqing stumbled backward, her voice trembling, “It wasn’t me, Yu! I hardly nudged her.”
Something flickered over Su Yu’s eyes. She instructed the guards to page the doctors. If anyone were to ask about the unconscious woman, they’d explain they met her in need of medical attention on their way here.
After the guards nodded, they went for the doctors. It was a good thing Wu Xuan collapsed on hospital grounds, so the doctors managed to save her from flatlining. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Su Yu and Lin Qingqing standing in front of her bed.
“I—” There was only fear in Wu Xuan’s eyes—she just had a near-death experience, and she barely made it.
Su Yu twitched her lips. “You were poisoned. Someone’s afraid of your apprehension, and they want you permanently silenced.”
Everyone knew who that “someone” was. Wu Xuan finally broke down, and she let it all out. She never wanted to get involved in something so shady, yet, she couldn’t stand the monetary temptation. Plus, she was in debt.
“Did you know, if I hadn’t spotted you, you’d bear the crime of manslaughtering two lives? And now, do you still think that Chu Yaoyao could offer you protection? How naive are you exactly?” Su Yu laughed mockingly. Was Chu Yaoyao’s words too much of an assurance, or was greed overtaking rationale? How could someone throw their life away for the sake of money? Chu Yaoyao was someone who could exploit anyone only to achieve her goals. And she kept doing it over and over again, even if it caused someone’s life.
Was Fu Yunian that important to her? If so, Su Yu would stay away from him. She couldn’t stand knowing anyone she loved would be hurt or endangered because of the woman. She glanced sideways to Lin Qingqing.
“What do you want me to do?” Wu Xuan asked. There was no such thing as free lunch.
“You’ll switch sides to testify against Chu Yaoyao on the court—who knows when you’ll stop breathing again all of a sudden. You’ll serve lesser prison time—years, maybe—and start a new life after that because you were coerced in the first place,” Su Yu made herself clear.
As if she was beyond ready to bring Chu Yaoyao down, Wu Xuan agreed to Su Yu’s request without hesitation.
Since everything had settled, there was no reason for Su Yu’s stay. After she asked the guard to protect Wu Xuan and prohibit anyone’s entry to her ward, the two girls went back to their separate rooms.
Just as Lin Qingqing closed the door to Su Yu’s room, she noticed Fu Yunian in the shadows—why was he still here?
Disgusted, she came to him. “Why didn’t you leave? I’m telling you, Yu has no intentions of seeing you!”
“Did I ever offend you in any sorts, Ms. Lin? There’s no need for being this aggressive. I’m here because I’m worried about Su Yu,” Fu Yunian frowned when he explained.
How funny. Lin Qingqing chuckled, nodding as she scorned, “Yeah. You say you’re worried, but how true is that? Honestly, Mr. Fu, I hope you’d stay away from Yu. Because when you get close to her, her life turns miserable!”
Gloom washed over him like defeat, the stabbing pain in his eyes crystal clear. Without another word, he turned towards the exit. While he shuffled in his deep thoughts, his buzzing phone disrupted his chaotic mind.. The information reaching him was a shocker—Li Biao had committed suicide in prison.
