    As long as there are guards, these people wouldn’t dare do anything to her.

    Zhuo Lin still felt the pain in her back.

    She felt anxious and uneasy, her mind was nk, with only one thought: Hurry, hurry.

    “Help…”

    As her scream echoed, she immediately realized her estimation was wrong when two people rushed over, hitting her leg hard with sticks. She only heard a crack, and the pain made Zhuo Lin faint instantly.

    She vaguely heard someone shouting in the darkness.

    The sound of footsteps kepting, and she passed out.

    Jiang Shaoqing picked up the phone. Thepany meeting had actually ended long ago. He used an excuse his mother couldn’t refuse, and he knew it was unfair to Zhuo Lin. But that was Zhuo Lin, a woman who could argue fiercely with him, who could stand up to him as an equal. She wasn’t a delicate flower; she was Zhuo Lin.

    “Shaoqing, hurry, something happened to Zhuo Lin. She was attacked and has already been sent to the hospital, right at the First People’s Hospital near yourpany. Hurry and go.” Jiang’s mother couldn’t express her regret enough. How could she let a girl go back on her own? And now, look what happened.

    Why didn’t she insist?

    His dark eyes turned icy in an instant.

    If hell is cold, then it must be like his eyes.

    “Who did it?”

    “I don’t know! Those two ran off. The guards didn’t catch them.”

    Hanging up the phone, Jiang Shaoqing grabbed his car keys and dashed out, speeding all the way to the hospital.

    He found it hard to imagine Zhuo Lin facing those fears and anxiety alone.

    When she opened her eyes again, she was in the hospital.

    As soon as she opened her eyes, she smelled the pungent scent of disinfectant and saw the white walls. She heard Jiang’s mother scolding someone.

    With a lift of her hand, a piercing pain coursed through her body, and Zhuo Lin groaned.

    Immediately, someone embraced her with their arms.

    Zhuo Lin suddenly screamed, punching his face and struggling to retreat.

    Her eyes were wild, her pupils dted.

    This was a reaction to a tremendous shock. Jiang Shaoqing felt a sharp pain in his chest, “Zhuo Lin, Zhuo Lin!” He called her name again, trying to stabilize her.

    She was hurt—God, she was hurt. He didn’t want to add to her pain, but he had to calm her down.

    He tightened his grip on her shoulders, preventing her from retreating. In fact, she couldn’t move much because her leg was in excruciating pain, making her break out in cold sweats as her sanity returned.

    “It’s okay! It’s okay, Zhuo Lin, it’s okay. I’m here, I will protect you, Zhuo Lin, it’s okay.”

    She finally calmed down slowly, though mostly due to the pain rather than understanding his words.

    Her whole body was still trembling uncontrobly, but at least she wasn’t attacking him anymore.

    Zhuo Lin’s frenzied eyes were fixed on his face, as if trying to piece together what had happened to her.

    Jiang Shaoqing kept talking to her, his tone low and reassuring, making her finally blink and regain rity in her gaze.

    “Jiang Shaoqing!” she murmured his name, as if confirming.

    Then she heard herself make a strange sound, and her body went limp, her head lifelessly resting on the pillow.

    Jiang Shaoqing felt breathless, not because he hadn’t seen worse, but because seeing a girl’s legs broken, her pants soaked in blood, made him so tense he almost felt sick. His blood was filled with anger and rage.

    She woke up several times but fainted again.

    Now sleep was the best thing for her.

    The doctor and Jiang Shaoqing stood in the corridor outside, along with Jiang’s parents and Zhuo’s parents, “Doctor, how is Zhuo Lin?”

    Jiang Shaoqing tried to calm himself down. The incident had happened, and he had instructed his people to thoroughly investigate everyone on the street, to gather all the evidence. Unfortunately, it was around nine o’clock then, and there really weren’t many people around.

    Moreover, Leng Yu was almost certain that there were minimal traces left behind.

    “She has sufferedminuted fractures in both legs and has been severely shocked. In the next few days, she will be very weak, have a fever, and feel strengthless. Moreover, her legs are likely to havesting after-effects!”

    For such a young girl, these after-effects were undoubtedly devastating. Who would want to be a cripple?

    “Is her life in danger?”

    Jiang Shaoqing breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she was okay, he was very grateful.

    “As long as she rests well, she’ll be fine!” The doctor looked at the family without any hesitation. It seemed the girl’s encounter hadn’t been too bad.

    Zhuo’s mother was already crying in Zhuo’s father’s arms, “Dad, what will Zhuo Lin do? What will she do? Who is so wicked to go after her legs? What will she do in the future?” The two families were set to be inws in a week, and they were nning to register for marriage in two days.

    Who would’ve thought it would turn out this way? Zhuo’s mother couldn’t imagine how the Jiang family would agree to let Jiang Shaoqing marry a woman with crippled legs. It seemed impossible.

    Zhuo’s father remained silent because they had no right to say anything at this moment or ask the Jiang family for any promises. That would be taking advantage of the situation, and they couldn’t do it.

    Both families were very close! The adults from both families were good friends.

    Now, they couldn’t say anything more.

    Jiang Shaoqing approached Zhuo’s father and mother, earnestly promising them.

    “Dad, Mom, please believe me, I will take good care of Zhuo Lin. No matter what happens in this lifetime, she will always be my wife, Jiang Shaoqing’s wife, even if she never stands again.”

    Zhuo’s father was moved. Jiang Shaoqing didn’t have to do this.

    Zhuo’s mother, also tearful, cried even more sorrowfully. Under normal circumstances, they would be very happy with such a son-inw, a responsible and courageous man. What a wonderful thing it would be, but now it’s not. Even if Jiang Shaoqing said so, could they shamelessly keep their daughter at other’s house?

    That would be shameless, and their family wasn’t like that. A conscientious person wouldn’t burden others.

    “Good child, you’re a good child, but for this matter, we can’t… can’t…”

    Jiang’s father and mother also came over, “You all heard it, what Shaoqing said is exactly what we wanted to say. What happened to Zhuo Lin is also our responsibility; we didn’t take good care of her. No matter what, she will be our Jiang Family’s daughter-inw, and there will never be anyone else. The wedding will proceed as scheduled, even if she’s in a wheelchair, our Jiang Family will hold it as nned. Inws.”

    Zhuo’s father and mother, this time, truly believed the Jiang Family was serious. How happy it would’ve been if she hadn’t encountered such an incident, for Zhuo Lin to marry Jiang Shaoqing. But now, everything had changed.

    The Jiang and Zhuo families had decided to spare no expense in catching the culprit who harmed Zhuo Lin.

    This was clearly a premeditated conspiracy.
