Chapter 238 Dog Blood
Chapter 238 Dog Blood
The next second, Nan Sheng got out of the car. "I'll just take a taxi later. It's very convenient here. Please drive faster. We can't afford any delays."
Song Xiao looked at Nan Sheng and hummed, "Sorry, Nan Sheng, get in a taxi and tell me."
"Okay." Nan Sheng responded.
Song Xiao quickly got into the car and drove out of the basement.
Nan Sheng just stood there, watching Song Xiao's car leave quietly, then walked back to the elevator.
Lu Shiyan saw the whole scene.
"So, Song Xiao left the person behind?" Ji Qingcang was a little surprised. "This doesn't seem like something Song Xiao would do."
Before he could finish his words, Lu Shiyan had already returned to the elevator and was calling Xu Cheng.
Ji Qingcang came back to his senses: "Shiyan, Lu Shiyan, what are you doing? Now is not the time for you to be a hero and save the beauty. Don't get involved in this mess. Why bother letting go of everything..."
Ji Qingcang also quickly caught up, but the next second, the elevator door closed and Ji Qingcang was stopped outside the elevator.
Lu Shiyan had no intention of letting Ji Qingcang in at all.
Ji Qingcang cursed softly.
He couldn't tell whether this matter was good or bad.
In the end, Ji Qingcang didn't say anything, walked quickly towards his car and drove away.
……
Nan Sheng called an Uber as soon as she entered the elevator.
Then Nan Sheng discovered that the area seemed to be under martial law, so Uber couldn't locate the area at all.
It takes at least one kilometer to walk to where you can get a taxi.
Nan Sheng had a headache.
She sprained her ankle and was wearing high heels, so she couldn't walk that long.
Before Nan Sheng could think of a solution, the elevator had already stopped and Nan Sheng walked out.
At the hotel entrance, Nan Sheng didn't even see a taxi, the only available option was an illegal taxi.
Black cars require cash, and Nan Sheng doesn't even have any cash wearing this kind of clothes.
Unfortunately, as if it weren't bad enough, it rained all night long, and God was against Nan Sheng.
It started to rain, and the drizzle soon became heavier. Nan Sheng could only passively hide under the eaves of the hotel.
For a moment, Nan Sheng felt desperate, but there was nothing she could do.
At this moment, a dazzling car light came, which was particularly eye-catching in the dark night.
Nan Sheng subconsciously put her hand out to block the view but didn't see the license plate.
When Nan Sheng came to her senses, she saw Xu Cheng getting out of the car and walking towards her.
Nan Sheng was quiet for a moment and didn't say anything.
Xu Cheng quickly walked up to Nan Sheng and said, "Miss Nan, please get in the car. I'll take you home."
Xu Cheng is Lu Shiyan's special assistant. There is only one reason why he would personally send me back, and that is Lu Shiyan's intention.
Nan Sheng glanced at the car in front of him out of the corner of his eye.
The car windows were made of special glass and she couldn't see inside.
But almost instinctively, Nan Sheng knew that Lu Shiyan must be in the car.
So subconsciously, Nan Sheng was going to refuse.
"Miss Nan, this area is under martial law until the early morning, so you won't be able to get a taxi." Xu Cheng said directly, "Besides, it's raining now. Even if there's no martial law, it's still very difficult to get a taxi. And..."
As he spoke, Xu Cheng paused slightly and looked at Nan Sheng's ankle.
Nan Sheng also followed Xu Cheng's gaze and felt a little uncomfortable.
Xu Cheng then continued, "Your ankle is injured, so you can't walk that far. You know, New York isn't very safe at night, so it's best for me to take you back."
Nan Sheng was stunned. She didn't expect Xu Cheng to notice her ankle injury.
Before Nan Sheng could react, Xu Cheng's voice continued, "Mr. Lu noticed your ankle injury the first time, so he told me to tell you not to be so stubborn. Mr. Lu also said that he would not go back on his word once he promised you. After all, he raised you, and he couldn't just stand by and watch you torment yourself here."
Xu Cheng spoke in a very serious manner.
But Nan Sheng actually knew the meaning between the lines.
Xu Cheng wanted Nan Sheng to stop making things difficult for him.
If I stand here for too long, it will be even more embarrassing if Lu Shiyan gets out of the car himself.
Nan Sheng was silent for a moment, considering the situation. Then she looked at Xu Cheng quietly, "Then I'll have to trouble Special Assistant Xu."
Because Nan Sheng knew that she really couldn't go home while she was here.
Besides, if Lu Shiyan was really brought down, there would be no way to explain it clearly.
So Nan Sheng chose to give up.
"Please." Xu Cheng was very polite and made way for Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng walked towards the car calmly. The closer she got to the car, the faster her heart beat.
"Miss Nan, please get in the car." Xu Cheng was very polite.
Xu Cheng opened the car door. Nan Sheng took a deep breath and then bent down to get in the car.
As soon as Nan Sheng got in the car, she saw Lu Shiyan inside, but Lu Shiyan kept his head down and looked at the documents in his hand throughout the whole process, and had no intention of paying any attention to Nan Sheng.
It was very dull, as if they had just passed each other.
Nan Sheng didn't know why Lu Shiyan would even send her off if he didn't want to bother with her.
What's more, the place where Lu Shiyan lives is in a completely different direction from where he wants to go.
Soon, the car started slowly, but the atmosphere inside the car made Nan Sheng feel suffocated.
Nan Sheng took a deep breath and then took the initiative to speak: "Excuse me, uncle."
Lu Shiyan didn't respond, and didn't even bother to look at Nan Sheng. Nan Sheng was used to it.
After she finished speaking, she turned and looked out the car window.
But through the car window, at this angle, Nan Sheng unexpectedly saw Lu Shiyan's open collar clearly.
There are obvious traces of gauze wrapping on it.
Nan Sheng knew that it was the mark left by the surgery.
But why is there still gauze? Is it not healed yet?
Nan Sheng thought about the conversations she heard at the elevator entrance, and finally, Nan Sheng fell silent.
At this moment, Nan Sheng's cell phone vibrated, breaking the quiet atmosphere in the car.
The man who had been keeping his head down now paid attention and looked at Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng didn't need to look to know that Lu Shiyan's eyes were dull and without any emotion.
Nan Sheng lowered her head and saw that the incoming call on her phone was from Song Xiao.
Nan Sheng was a little nervous.
It’s not just because I don’t know what happened to Song Xiao.
Also because he was in Lu Shiyan's car.
Nan Sheng still feels terrified by several unpleasant memories, and she is really afraid of what Lu Shiyan might do next.
Under such circumstances, Lu Shiyan just took a look and then looked away.
Nan Sheng only breathed a sigh of relief when Lu Shiyan stopped looking at her.
She quickly answered Song Xiao's call: "Hello..."
"Nan Sheng, it's raining. I forgot that the hotel is under martial law. It's difficult for you to get a taxi, so I've come back to take you home. As for the hospital, I asked Zhao Rui to go first." Song Xiao spoke lightly and made his point clear.
Nan Sheng was stunned. She didn't expect Song Xiao to come back.
It's not like in the novel, where the hero abandons the heroine without hesitation because of the supporting female character.
This kind of dog-blood thing never happened to Nan Sheng.
