“Silly girl, it’s your birthday today. Of course, we’re all here.
“We even ordered your favorite pizza. It should be arriving soon,” Second Brother chimed in.
The doorbell rang, and a woman holding a box entered the room.
As the box opened, she revealed a pair of sharp scissors.
The food delivery woman had now transformed into Chen Jing.
Chen Jing grinned maliciously as she raised the scissors and lunged toward Luo Ying’s chest.
Luo Ying’s eyes widened in fear. “Dad, Mom, Brother, save me!”
But they seemed frozen in place and were unable to assist her, in spite of their wide-open eyes.
She felt as though she had been swallowed by an endless darkness.
“Dad, Mom, save me!
“Brother, save me!”
In the emergency room, Luo Ying’s face turned pale. Sshe was covered in cold sweat. She kept repeating these pleas.
Lu Zhao stood beside her, his entire being consumed with sorrow and rage.
“Boss, we’ve caught the woman who stabbed Madam. How do we deal with her?” Xiao Ting called to ask.
“Throw her on Neverland Island,” Lu Zhao replied before hanging up.
He wished he could tear that person into pieces, but for now, he had to stay with Luo Ying.
Lu Zhao was filled with remorse. He had been preoccupied with the Lu Family’s power struggle and neglected Luo Ying’s safety. She had faced danger again and again, and he couldn’t forgive himself for not protecting her.
He looked at her pale face. His eyes were red with guilt.
No matter what, he had to save her.
But as Luo Ying rambled and called out for her dad, mom, and brother… She didn’t mention him.
Did she still long for the world she originally belonged to? Was she destined to leave him?
The thought tormented him and caused spasms of pain.
He couldn’t accept it. He couldn’t imagine how he would survive without Luo Ying.
While caught in the power struggle for the Lu Family, he had been pushing himself every day to protect the Luya Group and resorted to any means necessary.
If Luo Ying were to leave him one day, he didn’t know if anything he did would matter anymore.
Creak—the door was gently pushed open.
It was Wen Yu.
“President Lu, you should receive treatment. The poison master’s daughter has sent the blood for you.”
Lu Zhao looked at Luo Ying lying on the hospital bed.
From the looks of it, Luo Ying was truly not the poison master’s daughter, which brought some relief.
“Give her ten times the amount of money agreed upon,” Lu Zhao said.
“Yes, President Lu,” Wen Yu agreed.
Even Wen Yu was surprised. Her instincts had told her that Luo Ying was the poison master’s daughter. But despite lying in the ICU all day, Luo Ying still received the blood on time.
Could it be… Wen Yu didn’t dare to consider it. If Luo Ying really resorted to that method, the damage to her body would be fatal.
Outside the door, Jiang Ming observed everything coldly.
Half a month ago, Luo Ying had told him her plan.
She had been worried that she might not survive to complete Lu Zhao’s treatment, so she had taken out her blood in advance and stored it.
She had also asked Jiang Ming to surreptitiously deliver the blood to Wen Yu.
When he saw Luo Ying lying on the hospital bed looking so frail, Jiang Ming’s heart ached. How extraordinary was this man to be worth her life?
After receiving treatment, Lu Zhao rushed back to the hospital.
A red Maserati was parked in front of his car, and a woman with striking makeup stepped out.
Lu Zhao rubbed his temples and asked Xiao Ting to look into it.
But before Xiao Ting could answer, the woman approached the car.
She bent down and revealed a teasing hint of cleavage.
“What do you want?” Lu Zhao asked impatiently.
Countless women came after him, so these situations were not uncommon.
“President Lu, I want to introduce someone to you. She can cure Luo Ying,” the woman said confidently.
When he heard Luo Ying’s name, Lu Zhao’s heart trembled.
Luo Ying’s stabbing had been near-fatal. Despite the best efforts of Lan City’s doctors, they could only buy her more time.
Her body was extremely weak, and her heart wasn’t getting enough blood supply. Even with the doctor’s assurances, they could only guarantee keeping her alive in a comatose state for a year. The rest would be up to fate.
If this woman really had a way to cure Luo Ying, Lu Zhao was willing to give it a try.
“Where is she? I’ll go meet her,” Lu Zhao told the woman.
The woman smiled and brushed her hair behind her ear.
“President Lu, get in my car. I’ll take you there..”
