Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Thank Me in a Different Way Next Time

Horses neighed, kicking up dust as they ran, the ground violently trembling beneath their hooves.

As Fu Shiyan rushed into the herd, he saw An Yan tightly hugging Xu Wanqing and protecting her head.

A chestnut horse reared up, and just as its hooves were about to crash down on An Yan’s head, Fu Shiyan did not hesitate to charge over, delivering a flying kick to the horse’s belly.

The chestnut horse, already on its hind legs, lost its balance due to the heavy blow to its side and fell hard to the ground.

A black horse tripped over it, its entire body crashing down.

Mu Shaoze flew out of his wheelchair to push the two people out of harm’s way, his right leg trapped under the horse’s body.

The intense pain made the veins on his forehead bulge, cold sweat sliding down his cheeks in large drops.

The dust settled, the thunder of galloping hooves faded away as the horses were driven off by Fu Shiyan.

The chestnut and black horses on the ground both got up, their hooves staggering forward.

Meanwhile, several workers from the resort hurried over to aid the injured.

Fu Shiyan quickly returned to help An Yan and Xu Wanqing up, "Are you alright?"

When An Yan lifted her eyes, she collided with the man’s anxious gaze, "I’m fine."

She checked Xu Wanqing from head to toe, "Aunt, how are you?"

Tears streaming down her face, Xu Wanqing replied, "I’m fine."

She was not scared, but rather, she was moved by An Yan’s unwavering support.

Hearing a gasp from beside her, An Yan turned back to see Mu Shaoze, who had not gotten up, and quickly knelt to check on him, "His leg is broken, he needs surgery immediately."

Fu Shiyan immediately called for a helicopter and arranged for Hong’en Hospital to prepare the operating room.

At the same time, An Yan called Fang Zhou, asking him to rush to Jiangcheng without delay.

Just out of surgery, Fang Zhou stubbed out the cigarette on his fingertip, changed out of his surgical gown, and, with the assistance of Chen Sheng, headed to Jiangcheng.

At this moment, Mu Yingying, her face streaked with tears, ran over and embraced Xu Wanqing, "Thank goodness you’re both okay, you scared me to death."

Xu Wanqing gently patted her on the back, "We’re fine, your elder brother hurt his leg."

Mu Yingying hurried over to see Mu Shaoze, "Elder brother, how are you?"

"I’m alright, not going to die," Mu Shaoze said with a nonchalant smile as if the broken leg was not his own, but his pale face betrayed him.

Crouching in front of him, Fu Shiyan said, "I’ll carry you to the changing room; if the horses come back, they could easily break your other leg."

Mu Shaoze’s mouth twitched.

He didn’t make a fuss and, with the support of An Yan and Mu Yingying, got up and lay on Fu Shiyan’s back.

Mu Yingying pushed Xu Wanqing and followed An Yan behind them.

"When I came out earlier, I saw the horses had surrounded you, my heart almost leapt out of my chest. Those horses are usually so gentle, what happened today?"

An Yan looked back at the Horse Farm, the two Horse Trainers who had gone to chase the horses earlier.

In a moment, she would need to ask them why the horses suddenly went mad.

Twenty minutes later, the helicopter landed in front of the changing room, Fu Shiyan carried Mu Shaoze on board, accompanied by Mu Yingying and Xu Wanqing.

An Yan told Mu Shaoze, "I’ve already spoken to Fang Zhou, he should be able to reach the hospital by the time you arrive. Shiyan and I will head to the hospital after we speak with the Horse Trainer."

Mu Shaoze nodded, "I’m fine, don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt that much."

An Yan nodded and retreated with Fu Shiyan, watching the helicopter rise into the sky and fly away.

Fu Shiyan turned around and grasped her shoulders with both hands, "Do you have any discomfort?"

"No," An Yan shook her head, "I’m really fine, don’t worry about me."

Fu Shiyan embraced the person into his arms, "Fool, the first thing you thought of wasn’t protecting yourself but others."

"You’re the fool, charging into the herd of horses; do you realize how dangerous that was?"

"I only knew that you were in danger."

An Yan clung to the man affectionately; the moment Fu Shiyan rushed in was like the scene from two years ago when he rescued her.

"Ayan, thank you."

"Silly girl, saying thanks again—if you want to thank me in the future, just find another way."

An Yan tiptoed to kiss the man’s lips, and the man swept her into his arms, returning the kiss fiercely.

In the shadows, a pair of eyes filled with resentment stared at them, then disappeared into the bushes.

After the Horse Trainer returned, Fu Shiyan took both persons into the changing room to question them.

Both shook their heads, having no idea what had happened.

Checking the surveillance revealed no clue as to why the horses suddenly went mad.

Fu Shiyan furrowed his brows, dialed Mu Shaoci’s number, and asked him to find someone to test the horses to see if anyone had tampered with them.

Hong’en Hospital.

Outside the operating room, Mu Yingying and Xu Wanqing were waiting; the rest of the Mu Family hadn’t arrived yet.

Seeing Fu Shiyan and An Yan arrive, Mu Yingying rushed up, "How is it, any results?"

An Yan shook her head, "According to the surveillance, the Horse Trainer doesn’t seem to have any issues, but we need to conduct further tests to determine if there’s anything wrong with the horses."

Mu Yingying frowned slightly, "I never thought we’d encounter such a dangerous situation, it was really too thrilling. An Yan, thank you for protecting mom at that time."

An Yan looked towards Xu Wanqing and smiled, "It’s what I should do."

Mu Shaoze was wheeled into the ward two hours later.

When he woke up and saw the same few people in his room, he chuckled lightly, "As expected, I don’t hold much status in the Mu Family; dad and my elder brothers didn’t come to see me."

Xu Wanqing gave him a sidelong glance, "Qianfan is returning from an out-of-town filming, your dad and your older and second brothers have gone to the resort to investigate this matter. We all stayed outside while you were in surgery, what more do you want?"

Mu Shaoze joked, "I was just teasing, why are you taking it so seriously?"

Xu Wanqing glanced at his suspended leg, full of concern, "If you end up lame, you definitely won’t find a wife."

Mu Shaoze: "..."

Xu Wanqing turned to An Yan, "You and Shiyan should go back and rest."

Mu Yingying added, "Mom, you should go back too; I’ll take good care of fourth brother here."

Mu Shaoze nodded, "Yeah, could you trouble President Fu to take my mom back to the old house, please?"

Fu Shiyan nodded, "No trouble at all."

An Yan, "Then we’ll come to see you another day."

Mu Shaoze, "Sure."

After Mu Yingying saw them out and returned to the ward, she saw Mu Shaoze looking at her with a meaningful gaze.

Mu Yingying blinked, "Fourth brother, do you want some water?"

"No." Mu Shaoze stared at her intently, "Yingying, your timing with the stuck zipper on your pants was quite impeccable today."

Mu Yingying looked at him, puzzled, "Fourth brother, are you blaming me for not protecting mom in time? If I had been there, I would have done everything to protect her."

Seeing the girl on the verge of tears, Mu Shaoze tapped his cheek with his tongue and laughed, "After all, raising you for twenty years, it was just as well, the best."
