Chapter 90: Against the Sky Against the Air



Chapter 90

Shen Tang\'s brain spun rapidly, the people outside didn\'t seem random, but more like they were here for her.

Shen Tang held a fruit knife and stood at the door.

The movement outside soon quieted down, and Shen Tang waited for a while without any sound.

Suddenly, a scream came from outside.

That voice--

It was Hou Jingjing\'s!

Shen Tang swiftly opened the door and went out, only to see Hou Jingjing lying on the ground unconscious, the hallway empty of people.

She ran over, and just as she was about to squat down, she suddenly noticed an extra shadow on the ground.

Shen Tang rolled to dodge, and saw a figure wrapped up in black clothes stab towards her with a knife.

Shen Tang used all her strength to kick, and the person slammed into the wall, letting out a muffled groan of pain.

The person still wanted to continue, but the police siren sounded from downstairs, and he turned to run away.

Shen Tang chased him for two steps, worried about the fainted Hou Jingjing on the ground, and retreated back.

Hou Jingjing\'s abdomen was a bloody mess, having bled a lot. Shen Tang didn\'t dare move her, and hurriedly called 120.

Noisy footsteps sounded, and the surrounding guests only opened their doors now.

"Oh my god, the wound is so serious..."

"Quick, call 120!"

"Why is she still unconscious, could she be-- "

"Don\'t speak nonsense!"

The surrounding people\'s whispers made Shen Tang\'s head hurt.

"Shut up!"

The surroundings instantly turned silent.

Shen Tang didn\'t care what others thought of her, she just stared at the pool of red, knowing that her head was about to explode.

Soon the police and doctors arrived, and the surroundings descended into chaos. It was as if Shen Tang was drifting outside of the crowds, even when Qi Yue called her it was like she couldn\'t hear any sounds.

A bout of dizziness overcame her, and she completely lost consciousness.

When she next woke up, she was in the hospital.

Shen Tang discovered that recently she had been hospitalized so many times. She had just gotten out not long ago and now she was admitted again.

Practice makes perfect, now when she went to the hospital, it was like going home, very comfortable.

Shen Tang tilted her head to look, Gu Huaian was currently sitting on the sofa handling work.

She suddenly felt a little guilty.

"Awake?"

Shen Tang stared wide-eyed in surprise, he didn\'t even lift his head how did he know she was awake?

Shen Tang closed her eyes, pretending to still be asleep.

"If you\'re awake let\'s go, the doctor said you\'re fine, just shocked."

Shen Tang still didn\'t respond.

As a result, Gu Huaian directly came over and flipped her blanket open.

Shen Tang frowned, "How can you flip a girl\'s blanket open!"

Right after she finished speaking, the blanket was covered back up.

"Sorry, I\'ve covered you back up."

Shen Tang: "......"

She looked at the clothes she was wearing, still the pajamas from last night. It looks like she could directly leave without needing to change.

"How did I end up at the hospital?"

"Miss Qi sent you here."

"How is Yuan Yuan?"

Gu Huaian was stunned for a moment, "Is that the girl with the round face? She saw you faint and cried so hard she couldn\'t breathe, I had someone send her back."

"Then...how is Hou Jingjing?"

"Not too serious, just some external stitches. "

"I want to go see her..."

After all, Hou Jingjing getting injured was more or less related to her. Although Shen Tang still didn\'t know who she had offended again.

Gu Huaian\'s expression was a bit strange, but Shen Tang didn\'t think much of it.

"Oh right, did they catch the assailant from last night?"

"No, he ran very quickly. But heaven\'s net is wide, though its meshes are coarse. He can\'t hide for long." A flash of coldness appeared in Gu Huaian\'s eyes.

Those who dare to hurt his people have to be prepared to face retaliation.

He wasn\'t a good guy, or he would have been viciously disposed of long ago.

Shen Tang suddenly felt a chill. She pulled her clothes tighter.

Hou Jingjing was staying downstairs. Shen Tang was originally surprised why she was staying so far. As soon as she went downstairs she understood why.

She could hear Hou Jingjing\'s screaming cries from a long distance away.

"Wah...it hurts so much...I want painkillers! Painkillers!"

"Where is the doctor? Why aren\'t they here yet!"

"Ahhhhh I\'m going to die from pain!"

"Mom...wah...I want to go home..."

How to put it, it sounded miserable, and creepy too.

Luckily this was a high-end private hospital without too many patients, or else she would have disturbed others.

Shen Tang noticed the expressionless yet hardworking nurses, and gave them a silent thumbs up in her heart. So professional, not affected by external influences.

When Shen Tang arrived at the door of the hospital room, she gently knocked.

The cries in the room stopped for a moment before continuing.

Shen Tang picked at her ears. The door wasn\'t closed so of course the sound was so loud.

She directly pushed the door open and entered.

Hou Jingjing currently had her eyes closed as she wailed at the top of her lungs. Not a single teardrop could be seen, but her face was ghastly pale.

"Feeling better?"

Upon hearing Shen Tang\'s voice, the wailing immediately ceased.

Hou Jingjing smoothed her hair, awkwardly saying: "You, why did you come?"

"Came to see you. Does your wound still hurt?"

Upon hearing this, Hou Jingjing immediately pouted. "It hurts so bad..."

"I\'m sorry, because of me you got dragged into this..."

Hou Jingjing stared with wide eyes in shock, "What nonsense are you saying? What does this have to do with you?"

"The person who came was probably looking for me..." Although just conjecture, Shen Tang felt the probability was very big.

Now when she thought about it, perhaps it had to do with her loose lips that afternoon.

Was the person looking for her the murderer who killed that girl?

"Shen Tang you seem a bit different like this."

Shen Tang smiled wryly, "What should I be like then?"

"Shouldn\'t you be sassing heaven, earth, and air?" I got dissed by you so many times before."

"It\'s different this time..."

"There\'s no difference at all. I chose to go out myself, just unlucky to run into bad people. What does it have to do with you? Ow, don\'t think anymore. You\'re making an injured person comfort you instead, really..." At the start Hou Jingjing was still a little awkward, but upon seeing Shen Tang like this she completely discarded those feelings.

In just one day, the relationship between the two improved visibly.

The little assistant went from initial disbelief, to now "whatever", "do what you want", "I don\'t care".

Shen Tang also recalled the previous incident, and hurriedly asked: "Can you tell me now why you were targeting me before?"

Hou Jingjing: "....."

"What, you still remember that thing?"

"Of course. If you don\'t explain I won\'t be able to eat or sleep properly. I\'ll--"

"Get fat!" Hou Jingjing supplemented.

Shen Tang: "....."

She hadn\'t gotten fat!

She had just become more solid!
