Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 168 She Cries Too
Ji Group.
Xu Mingkai rushed into the office, completely ignoring the detail of knocking, his voice trembling slightly, "Young Master Ji, the young... the young master is in trouble."
He was chatting in the secretariat when he saw the video of the young mistress's car being hit. His legs are still shaking. The young master was in the car!
In the capital, anyone who's got a death wish and dares to murder the young master is probably tired of living.
Upon hearing this, the man's face turned pale, and he dropped the pen he was using to sign. "What?"
Xu Mingkai opened the video of the trending news and handed it to Ji Hancheng. His face grew paler and paler. Without hesitation, he stood up and said to Xu Mingkai behind him as he walked, "Cancel all the schedules. Tell Han Yue to get the trending news down."
Before Xu Mingkai could catch up, he walked straight out of the office and headed towards the parking lot. He had memorized the entire video. The ambulance that arrived was from the Imperial Capital Hospital. His heart was pounding, and a feeling of suffocation washed over him.
He haphazardly ripped off his tie and threw it on the passenger seat, speeding up to the maximum. But the roads in the capital were just so congested. He was so anxious that he kept honking the horn, wondering if that woman knew, if she could handle it, and if she had cried.
He recalled the video again. In the video, the little guy was blindfolded and protected by the Lan family's bodyguards until the ambulance arrived, at which point the Lan family bodyguards collapsed.
The photo of two nannies protecting his son also deeply moved him.
He kept honking the horn, then picked up his phone and called Tang Junyao. It was past 12 o'clock, and she hadn't started work yet; she was probably taking her lunch break. But the phone went unanswered.
She wanted to get to the hospital as quickly as possible. She knew how important her son was to her. Just a few days ago, he thought she was going to take their son from her and even acted like she was going to fight him to the bitter end.
If she finds out that something happened to the child, will she break down? My mind is filled with images of Tang Junyao's breakdown and my son with his eyes covered, the little bundle of joy standing out even more in the video.
Seeing that Tang Junyao didn't answer, he called Han Yue again. This guy has a bad temper when he wakes up, and Xu Mingkai might not be able to get him up. "Get up and get to work."
Han Yue over there had gotten up early and already finished removing the trending topics. He acted very quickly and understood Ji Hancheng's outburst. "I'll find the culprit. You go about your business." He wasn't joking at all.
Han Yue thought to himself, if he were to suddenly die one day, Ji Hancheng would definitely bear half the responsibility; he truly owed him.
About 30 minutes later, Ji Hancheng arrived at the hospital. He didn't even park the car properly; he just parked it across the entrance of the Imperial Capital Hospital and handed the keys to a security guard, saying, "Park it for me. I'll pay you later."
Those half hours felt like an eternity to him. When he arrived at the operating room door, he saw a bodyguard holding his son, whose eyes were still covered. He strode over and said to the bodyguard, "Give him to me."
This man was Baihu's subordinate. He didn't recognize Ji Hancheng. He had just arrived and was waiting at the door after receiving a message from his boss. He had just picked up the young master, who had been taken from the boss's ambulance.
Ji Hancheng's opinion of the Lan family's bodyguards has changed a lot, and he even feels grateful. "I'm his father. I'll take him to find your young lady. If you're worried, you can come with me."
After saying that, he gently pulled the silk scarf off the child's eyes and patiently asked, "Are you scared?"
Little Yuzu was a bit dazed, not knowing what was happening. Uncle White Tiger kept his eyes covered and shook his head.
He clenched his fist. Someone actually wanted his son's life, so he would trade his life for it. Suppressing his anger, he reached out and gently rubbed his son's head. "I'll carry you to find your mother."
Little Youzi stretched out her hands, wanting Ji Hancheng to hug her. As soon as he hugged her, Little Youzi wrapped her arms around Ji Hancheng's neck.
Seeing that the young master recognized him and was willing to be held, the bodyguard lowered his guard and, out of duty, followed him.
The man carried the child easily in one arm and walked heavily toward Tang Junyao's clinic. Before he even reached the door, he overheard Su Xue talking to him: "I delivered three babies this morning, including a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. Isn't that amazing?"
Tang Junyao smiled and said, "No one is more capable than you."
Just as she was about to take out her phone to call and ask Aunt Zhang how things were going, the door was pushed open, stopping her from making the call. The man's tall figure, with the little bundle of grapefruit in his arms, looked particularly out of place. Tang Junyao quickly got up when she saw her son. She was a little puzzled as to why he was with her son. Didn't Aunt Zhang say this morning that she was taking him to the park to fly kites?
Little Yuzu was overjoyed to see her. She hadn't lied to him; she really had come to find her mother. "Mommy..."
Despite her doubts, she had already walked up to the man, taken the little pomelo from his hand, and said with a big smile, "Lele, why are you looking for Mommy? Where's Grandma? Didn't you go out to play with Uncle White Tiger? Wasn't it fun?"
Seeing the woman's smiling face as she asked her son, he couldn't bear to speak. He just stared blankly at the mother and son, pursing his lips and remaining silent.
Su Xue glanced at Ji Shao's cold face, ignored him, and squatted down to say to Xiao Youzi, "You heartless bastard, it's only been a short time since we last met, why didn't you call me?"
Little Yuzu called out in her childish voice, "Xuexue Mommy."
"That's more like it." Then, she affectionately pinched her godson's cheek, noticing something was wrong. "Why is Lele covered in blood, even around his ears?"
Tang Junyao was too happy to care why Ji Hancheng had brought his son. Now she started to examine Xiaoyouzi's body carefully and found that there was blood in many places. Her heart jumped and she turned to look at Ji Hancheng, who was standing there with a fierce expression. "What happened?"
Ji Hancheng didn't answer. Instead, he went over, picked up his son, pulled Tang Junyao, and pressed her into a chair. He then turned to Su Xue and said, "Miss Su, could you please pour me a glass of water?"
At this moment, Tang Junyao's face showed fear, confusion, and worry...
Su Xue did as she was told without saying a word, because she also had a premonition that things were a bit serious. She went straight to pour a glass of warm water and placed it in front of Tang Junyao, worried about what had happened and feeling uneasy.
Tang Junyao was getting anxious, her tone urgency evident. She glanced at her son's clothes again, no longer in the mood to drink water. "Tell me," she said.
Ji Hancheng knew that this matter could not be kept secret. Fortunately, she did not see the video and had Han Yue delete it in advance. "The Lan family's bodyguard was in a car accident. On the way to the park, he was hit by a truck several times. The two nannies and the bodyguard are still in the operating room."
He didn't go into details, afraid she wouldn't be able to handle it; he simply explained the situation.
Even without the details being explained, Tang Junyao and Su Xue were already pale and completely disoriented. They both glanced at the child in Ji Hancheng's arms.
The child just stared blankly at the two mothers, as if nothing had happened, seemingly unaware of what had occurred.
He said directly, "I've already asked for leave for you, and someone will cover for you this afternoon."
Upon hearing the sound, Tang Junyao stood up, looking somewhat absent-minded. She hadn't even changed her clothes. Ji Hancheng pulled her back, saying, "Change your clothes."
"Oh." Like a puppet, Tang Junyao went back, took off her white coat and hung it on the wall, and changed into her own clothes.
Su Xue followed closely behind, saying, "I'll go with you to the operating room."
Ji Hancheng hurriedly objected. She could perform surgery on others, but not on someone she was close to, especially not under these circumstances. "I'll take you home first and help him change his clothes. You can't just watch him covered in blood, can you? After he changes, I'll come back with you and stay with him, okay?" Her tone was full of negotiation.
Even Su Xue was surprised by Ji Hancheng's appearance. Was this still the same Ji Ye from the capital?
Tang Junyao paused, looked at Xiaoyouzi's body and face again, and nodded. "I'll go to the operating room to take a look first."
This time, Ji Hancheng did not object, but he said, "You can't go in; you can only wait outside."
She understood what he meant and nodded again in agreement.
Upon arriving at the operating room door, the bodyguard respectfully greeted, "Miss."
Tang Junyao nodded. "How is it inside? Has the doctor come out? How long has it been?"
The bodyguards answered one by one, "It's been almost half an hour. Mrs. Wu's condition is quite serious. The doctor said she might not survive, but they are still trying to save her."
Tang Junyao felt her blood run cold, her eyes vacant. Could she not be saved? How could that be? She was fine when she went out this morning, and she even gave Xiaoyouzi a bath last night. Tears streamed down her face involuntarily, her throat felt sore, and she could barely swallow.
Ji Hancheng knew this would be the outcome. Ignoring the people around him, he carried the child over, put his arm around her shoulder, and led her outside. He said to Xu Mingkai, "Stay here."
Then he said to the Lan family bodyguards, "I will protect her."
The man had a powerful aura, exuding an air of authority that left no room for argument. He was comparable to their young master, and for some inexplicable reason, the group believed him.
Ji Hancheng just wanted to get her away from the scene immediately. The incident happened so suddenly that she might not be able to accept it all at once. It would be much better if she could calm down and come back later. Everyone needs time to mentally prepare themselves and needs time to accept it.
No one's heart is made of iron, and she is no exception. I used to think she was very strong, a tough woman, different from other women, but now I think it's just a protective facade she uses to disguise herself, because she also cries.
Xu Mingkai's heart was also like a rollercoaster. This incident was a huge blow to the young mistress, and all he could do now was help keep watch over her.
