Chapter 195: The wooden beauty of Young Master Sheng
Chapter 195: Assault
Jiang Chenchen emerged from the elevator, passed through a hidden room, and rushed to the first floor. In the faint light of dawn, she saw the chaotic crowd and Sheng Mingsi dodging within it.
"Ah Si!"
She instinctively called out, and Sheng Mingsi, with bloodshot and crimson eyes, a face covered in blood, heard her voice amidst the chaotic thoughts. He glimpsed the familiar figure.
"Chenchen!"
Evading gunfire, Sheng Mingsi moved through the hospital corridors to her side. Wu Bi protected him, and Sheng Mingsi swiftly pulled her close, avoiding bullets that whizzed past.
They darted into a hospital room.
Jiang Chenchen leaned against his broad chest, her face close to him, hearing his intense heartbeat and the heavy breaths above her head.
Several consecutive nights of rushing around had left him exhausted. Still, the person in front of her was fine, in his arms, making everything worthwhile.
While he vigilantly monitored the situation outside, his low voice reached her ears.
Jiang Chenchen heard him say, "Chenchen, I'm here to take you home."
Suddenly, a warm feeling surged in her heart. He had come all the way to this foreign land for her, enduring all hardships, and now, amidst the gunfire, he wanted to take her home.
"When did you guys arrive?" she asked.
"Just now. I'm sorry it took so long, causing you distress, Chenchen. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Ah Si... Zhan Chen said he would let me go when it's dawn. It's already dawn; you don't have to fight anymore!"
She left Sheng Mingsi's embrace, headed towards the exit, and shouted Zhan Chen's name to stop him.
Her voice attracted gunfire, but Sheng Mingsi quickly pulled her back.
"Chenchen, it's dangerous! How can you trust that person's words?" Sheng Mingsi's face bore traces of bullets aimed at his eyes.
His expression was extremely serious, suppressing his breath from top to bottom.
Jiang Chenchen reached out, wiping away the bloodstains from his cheek, looking into his eyes. "Ah Si, we can go home soon. Trust me. Have your people withdraw first."
Sheng Mingsi grabbed her wrist, holding onto it tightly, unwilling to let go. He stared into her eyes with profound intensity. "I'll be with you, no matter what."
He wouldn't let go.
Jiang Chenchen met his gaze, firmly gripping his hand. Then, the two of them left the room.
Sheng Mingsi ordered his men to withdraw, simultaneously shouting, "Zhan Chen, tell your people to stop. Chenchen is with me; let's talk."
In this dimly lit corridor with disrupted circuits, where both upstairs and downstairs were engaged in a chaotic battle, his voice was clear enough. Meanwhile, Zhan Chen, concealed in the darkness on the other side, narrowed his eyes.
Chenchen was with him.
Although he was mentally prepared, his words always ignited a strong desire to destroy and eliminate. However, it wasn't the time yet.
Zhan Chen instructed his men to put down their weapons. Pushed by Ning Yi, he came out in a wheelchair. In this smoky and dim corridor, he saw Jiang Chenchen standing beside Sheng Mingsi.
The day had already dawned.
Light streamed in diagonally through shattered windows.
It was daylight, and it was time to let her go.
"Chenchen, come over here," Zhan Chen shouted to her.
"It's daylight; it's time to let her go."
"Chenchen, come here," Zhan Chen called to her.
He always looked at her with enough tenderness, even though he was forcefully maintaining his willpower.
Jiang Chenchen stood still, her hand in Sheng Mingsi's hand, his fingers ice-cold, gripping tightly.
"Ah Si," she softly called him.
Sheng Mingsi glanced at her and said in a deep voice, "Don't be afraid."
He locked eyes with the person opposite him. "It's dawn, continuing like this won't lead to a good outcome. Your body doesn't seem like it can endure it any longer. I'll take her away, and you can immediately withdraw from here."
Indeed, Zhan Chen's body couldn't endure further strain, but he just wanted her to come and talk to him. Especially seeing her standing beside Sheng Mingsi, holding hands, it was so glaring that it was unbearable!
"Chenchen, come over here. I'll let you go."
He looked so humble in front of so many people.
But when his gaze fell on Sheng Mingsi, it was uncharacteristically cold. "You immediately leave this place. One hundred meters outside the hospital, I'll talk to Chenchen for a few minutes, then let her go."
He just didn't want to watch them leave together from his sight. Otherwise, he feared he wouldn't keep his promise to let go.
However, Sheng Mingsi interpreted his words as a provocation. How could he let Jiang Chenchen stay by his side when faced with such a dangerous person?
He was truly worried and absolutely did not believe in Zhan Chen's character. However, Jiang Chenchen squeezed his hand slightly, as if pulling back his thoughts and gaze.
Sheng Mingsi glanced at her, and she said, "Ah Si, trust me. I'll be back with you shortly."
Her voice was gentle, but the power conveyed in her eyes allowed him to feel a bit more reassured in his anxious heart.
"But..."
"Wait for me."
She exerted strength in her hand. Before letting go, she was seeking his opinion.
Even if Sheng Mingsi was unwilling, he couldn't truly disbelieve her. Lowering his head to look into her eyes, he said coldly and solemnly, "Be careful. I'll be waiting for you outside. If anything happens, shout loudly for me."
"Okay, I'll call your name. Sheng Mingsi."
They settled on leaving, but an unexpected incident occurred after Sheng Mingsi led his people outside. Someone with ulterior motives had infiltrated among the hired men. When everyone was relaxed, this person suddenly fired a shot at the person in the wheelchair.
At that moment, Jiang Chenchen was walking towards Zhan Chen.
The bullet missed its target, unexpectedly aimed at Jiang Chenchen. At that moment, Zhan Chen, in a panic, gathered his strength from the wheelchair and pressed her form down, holding her protectively in front of him.
As a result, the bullet hit his thigh.
Blood quickly seeped through his clothes, staining it red.
Suddenly, during this turn of events, Sheng Mingsi, being a bit far away, couldn't rescue Jiang Chenchen. However, he was the first to shoot the assailant's arm. The gun shifted, and the assailant was immediately subdued.
In that situation, they almost started another fight between the two factions.
It was Sheng Mingsi who restrained the impulsive urge to fight, handing over the assailant to Zhan Chen's men for investigation. At the same time, Wu Bi went to facilitate the handover between Sheng Mingsi's people and Zhan Chen's.
Due to this sudden incident, Zhan Chen's situation became critical, and the hospital's doctors were also injured, making it impossible for them to provide immediate medical attention.
At this moment, Jiang Chenchen turned to look at Sheng Mingsi. After he stabilized the various emotions and arrived, she said, "Don't panic. I've studied medicine; leave it to me!"
