Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant! -
Chapter 207 Who
Chapter 207: Chapter 207 Who
"As for the other victim..." Su Lu took a deep breath here.
It seemed that only in this way could she suppress the emotions in her heart before saying, "We will definitely not settle. The criminal and all of you will pay the price. Please be mentally prepared."
"Mr... Mr. Su," the person in charge said with a distressed look on his face, "we also have our difficulties."
"That’s your problem. If I remember correctly, for this training camp, we even provided you with sponsorship, yet you’ve let us suffer such a great loss." Su Lu was unyielding, her tone not changing at all.
Jiang Li stood by her side, his mind still in a bit of chaos. He couldn’t calm down from the shock of Ying Xi’s injury for a while and certainly couldn’t negotiate calmly with the organizers.
He hadn’t expected Su Lu to be so rational and composed, although he had always known that Su Lu was capable—this was clear from her initial negotiations with Lie Ying’s manager.
But he hadn’t expected her to hold it together in such a chaotic situation.
Listening to her almost aggressively not yielding an inch, Jiang Li felt that he didn’t need to speak; she could handle it well on her own.
The person in charge could only respond with a bitter smile that he would go to the police immediately to inquire about the assailant’s motive to tell her and then left ahead of time.
Probably not just to the police, but also to find a lawyer to figure out how to deal with the aftermath.
"Su Lu, I didn’t expect you to be so..." Jiang Li couldn’t think of a word to describe Su Lu just then.
To say she was fierce wasn’t exactly right, but she made people feel she was reliable.
Su Lu let out a long breath, and then visibly, her whole person seemed a bit deflated, her voice no longer as resounding as before, sounding weaker by more than a notch, "What’s the use... The injury is so severe, time can’t be turned back. I’m just... too angry."
Su Lu said, "I’m too angry, as if I don’t find something to vent about, I feel like I’ll explode."
People are emotional animals, and when they see someone they care about suffering brutal harm, the most direct emotions that arise are of two kinds: one is concern for the loved one and the other is naturally anger towards the perpetrator.
Those who do nothing should also be categorized as perpetrators.
Jiang Li saw her suddenly deflate like a punctured ball and only then felt... yes, this was the normal reaction.
The two of them just stood at the emergency room door, staring at the LCD screen with the names Ying Xi and Bo Jingshen spelled out, wishing they could stare a hole into it.
Treating the wounds would probably take some time, or maybe it was their anxiousness making it seem like ages had passed.
Jiang Li paced back and forth, several times unable to resist asking the nurse, only to receive the same reply, still in treatment, please wait patiently.
Both could only wait.
As time passed, phone calls started to come in.
Looking at the phone screen’s call, Jiang Li’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed. It was a call from Jiang Su; he was not really in the mood to answer it, but indeed he couldn’t ignore his brother’s call, so he had to pick it up.
"Lili!" Jiang Su’s voice was anxious, "Are you okay?!"
The news had been blasted on Weibo by some fans at the scene, otherwise, it probably wouldn’t have spread back to the homeland so quickly. The main victim was Ying Xi, who is quite famous, and the current top figure in the esports circle in terms of popularity.
And Jiang Su knew about the news because, after knowing that Jiang Li invested in this project for Ying Xi, despite his disinterest in this field and circle, he had instructed his secretary to pay more attention to news about Ying Xi.
This is how he learned that such a thing happened during the training abroad; the secretary even found many photos taken by fans present.
Knowing that someone had thrown sulfuric acid had already shocked and unsettled Jiang Su greatly, and then seeing Jiang Li’s pale face in the pictures at the scene, added onto the lack of any official news currently—everything was being passed around through photos taken by fans, mainly focusing on Ying Xi’s injuries, not even mentioning Bo Jingshen’s injuries much.
If Jiang Li had been hurt, probably not much would have been mentioned either.
How could Jiang Su remain calm?
So he hurriedly made the calls, none of which were answered—Jiang Li being too unsettled before to notice the vibrating phone in his pocket, only now reacting to it.
"I’m fine," Jiang Li said, "don’t worry."
"Phew..." Jiang Su breathed a sigh of relief, "You scared me to death. It’s good that you’re alright, good that you’re alright."
"But Ying Xi, his..." Jiang Li’s voice was hoarse.
Jiang Su was silent for a moment, "You never showed such concern even when Bo Jingshen was injured, and you two have been close friends for many years."
Jiang Li said hoarsely, "He has someone who should be worried about him worried. Ying Xi... He got hurt trying to protect me. I was walking in front and he pulled me behind. Otherwise, it would have been me that the acid was meant for."
Hearing this, Jiang Su fell silent: "..."
As if Jiang Li finally found a place to pour out his heart, he didn’t care if the other party responded or not, he continued, "His brother... died because of me..."
"Ah," Jiang Su sighed, "I’ll come right away. Don’t be afraid."
On the other end, Su Lu stared at the phone screen with Su Zhe’s call, her lips pursed, her fingers already ready to swipe to answer, but still hesitated.
She had just seen the leaked photos from back home; although only one or two captured glimpses of her.
But Su Zhe knew very well that she came to this training camp with Jiang Li, and seeing such news, he definitely couldn’t sit idly by.
And her now... Her mind was in a mess, and she really didn’t know how to deal with her brother’s questioning.
For example, how did she get more and more entangled with Bao Jing?
Just as Su Lu was hesitating whether to answer, the state of being treated disappeared from the monitor next to the emergency room.
Su Lu stood up with a start, stuffed her phone into her pocket, and quickly approached.
Jiang Li also rushed up, taking three steps at a time.
"How is it?"
"What happened?"
Both asked simultaneously.
The doctor’s expression was a little solemn, and seeing this solemn expression, both of their hearts sank.
"Both victims have different degrees of burns, and their situations are not easy. Moreover, because the temporary first aid was not adequate, the situation is not good. The patient I’m in charge of also went into shock, but after resuscitation, is now out of danger."
Upon hearing this, both their hearts skipped a beat.
"Who?" Su Lu knew it wasn’t good to ask this way, "Which one are you in charge of?"
Yet she couldn’t help it and asked directly.
This question was essentially asking: Who? Who went into shock?
The doctor glanced at the medical clipboard and uttered a syllable, "Bo."
