Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage

Chapter 389: Chapter 390: Paying the Price

Xia Yangyang finally regained a bit of consciousness.

She lifted her head and said, “I just ran into a thug.”

Shen Manbing’s face changed dramatically, and she began to scold her, “How many times have I told you? Sea city is the Magic City. It’s filled with all sorts of people. I told you not to go out alone at night, but you never listen. Your face is so pretty, even I want to ruin it with sulfuric acid. How could those thugs not have bad intentions when they see it?”

Xia Yangyang was severely chastised by Shen Manbing.

She didn’t say a word, lowering her head like a child who had done something wrong.

Seeing Xia Yangyang in this state only made Shen Manbing more furious.

This girl, clearly wronged, wouldn’t even fight back.

Shen Manbing, feeling sorry for her, said: “From today onwards, you are only allowed to be with me after work. If something happens to you, how am I going to explain it to Ah Chen?”

Xia Yangyang knew that Shen Manbing was genuinely worried about her.

Earlier, when the doctor was treating her injuries,

Xia Yangyang didn’t feel much, but Shen Manbing held her hand so tightly it even hurt more than the wound.

When she lifted her head, she saw Shen Manbing’s eyes were all red.

Upon seeing her, Shen Manbing scolded her again.

Xia Yangyang’s wounds were severe, and she was also worried about tetanus because there might have been rust on the blade that injured her.

So, she received an intravenous drip in the hospital.

Despite it not being a significant injury,

Shen Manbing insisted on having her hospitalized.

Shen Manbing stayed with her until midnight, taking care of everything from registering for a doctor’s appointment to getting the medicine.

She was a Diva, always pampered and catered to. She’d never done things like these before.

Xia Yangyang watched Shen Manbing busy herself and felt something indescribable.

Once, they were mortal enemies.

At what point did Shen Manbing start treating her this well?

Before, Xia Yangyang believed Shen Manbing’s change in attitude towards her was because she and Shen Shichuan owed her a favor.

Now, Xia Yangyang could feel that Shen Manbing truly treated her like a little sister.

Her eyes moistened again.

Probably because she had experienced something terrible in the last few days,

Feeling fragile was a rarity for her.

By the time Shen Manbing finished everything, it was already late into the night.

Xia Yangyang had just finished the intravenous drip.

Xia Yangyang said to Shen Manbing, “You should go back and rest first. I’m sorry to have caused you so much trouble today.”

Shen Manbing rolled her eyes at her, “Xia Yangyang, if you dare to let yourself end up in such a state again, see if I won’t beat you.”

After saying this, Shen Manbing checked her watch, murmuring to herself, “The timing should be about right.”

Xia Yangyang had a feeling that Shen Manbing was hiding something.

“Sister Bingbing, you should go back and rest,” Xia Yangyang insisted, feeling guilty.

Just then, the door to the ward opened.

Gu Qichen appeared in the doorway.

Xia Yangyang was startled.

Shen Manbing stood up as if relieved, “Finally, you’re here.”

Xia Yangyang asked in surprise, “Did you ask him to come? I’m actually fine.”

Shen Manbing said, “Don’t try to be too tough. If you don’t want Ah Chen to know, he will worry even more.”

Gu Qichen looked worried and worn out

He quickly walked over, “What exactly happened? You really scared me.”

Seeing Gu Qichen, Xia Yangyang found her peace, and tears fell unbidden from her eyes. “I’m fine. It’s just a minor skin injury. I’m really fine.”

Looking at Xia Yangyang’s bleeding wound, a hint of cruelty flashed across Gu Qichen’s face, “Rest assured, no matter who did this to you, I will make them pay a painful price!”
