Chapter 60: Aftermath

Chapter 60: Chapter 60: Aftermath

Lin Wanwan was furious. Pursue her unsuccessfully, then act like a thug; fail at being a thug, and then assault someone! It’s too much!

Although she wasn’t familiar with Xiao Wen, Chen Jinyu was one of her few friends. How could a group of burly men target girls with heavy punches? It’s bullying girls because they are naturally weaker!

If Lin Wanwan hadn’t practiced martial arts and gained strength from the Space-Time Gate, facing these eight strong men, she would have suffered too.

In the chaos, a beer bottle had slammed into her arm, causing sharp pain even now. Her tens of thousands worth evening dress was torn at the back, feeling cold whenever she moved.

Lin Wanwan was sitting on the hospital’s plastic bench with the two girls, comforting them for a while. At this moment, a young police "uncle" came over to talk to them, made a rough record, and advised them not to speak carelessly outside or make a fuss online.

The two girls were still in shock, not even thinking about exposing the matter, and agreed readily. Lin Wanwan had even less reason to cause a stir online.

At this point, Lu Shouyue returned and asked her, "Your three friends are hurt pretty seriously and need to be hospitalized. Do you have the contact information for their family members?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head and looked at the other two girls, who also shook their heads.

They were all brought together by their work in etiquette and modeling, and didn’t really know each other’s family situations.

For example, Lin Wanwan, she only met the two girls in front of her today for the first time. As for Xiao Wen, who caused the incident, she had only done activities with her three times.

Lu Shouyue checked the time and said, "It’s very late. How about I send you home first? Let’s hire caregivers for them here; staying doesn’t really help much."

Lin Wanwan glanced at the emergency operating room and said, "I’ll wait for the results. If there’s nothing major, I’ll go home."

Lu Shouyue then sat down beside her and said, "Then I’ll wait with you."

Lin Wanwan turned to look at him, "No need, tonight has been enough trouble for you. Mr. Lu, you should go back. This is a hospital; those people are all down, they won’t dare do anything, plus the police uncle is here."

Lu Shouyue laughed, "With a police uncle around, indeed it’s safe. However, your skills are quite surprising. How many secrets do you have, exactly?"

Lin Wanwan was not in the mood for teasing and casually said, "Just so-so, those thugs are all fat, not muscular, it’s all soft."

Lu Shouyue chuckled and didn’t speak any further, just silently accompanied her.

Who knows how long it was before a nurse came out of the emergency room, and Lin Wanwan and others quickly stood up to ask about the situation.

The nurse said, "All three people are seriously injured and need to be hospitalized for observation and treatment, but there’s no life-threatening risk. Are you going to stay overnight?"

The two girls exchanged glances and shook their heads. Lin Wanwan also found it inconvenient to stay; Xiao Qingyu can’t be without her at night, if she doesn’t go back, the little one will cry.

"Is there a hospital caregiver? I’d like to hire a caregiver to help take care of my friends; we won’t stay."

The nurse replied, "Yes, come to the nurse station, I’ll give you the contact, you can contact them yourself."

"Okay, thank you."

At this point, Lu Shouyue stood up and said, "I’ve already made contact, look, it should be those three."

In the corridor, three sturdy middle-aged women walked in. From their attire, they looked very much like caregivers, and upon inquiry, they indeed were.

After entrusting the three injured people to the caregivers, Lin Wanwan and the two girls left.

Lu Shouyue said gentlemanly, "I’ll be the protector, everyone get in my car."

Lin Wanwan didn’t refuse, "Mr. Lu, then I’m bothering you."

Upon leaving the hospital, Lin Wanwan took off her mask and threw it away, letting out a long breath, feeling a bit uneasy inside.

She first sent the two girls home; they were not locals of Yongcheng and lived in rented apartments.

The incident tonight, apparently left them still terrified; after arriving at the neighborhood entrance, they hesitated, not daring to get off the car. In the end, the two girls decided to stay together for the night, only then daring to go back after getting out of the car together.

By this time it was already late at night. After all this commotion, Lin Wanwan wasn’t tired at all, as for her, it was equivalent to daytime. The Tang Dynasty and modern times have a ten-hour time difference.

But Lu Shouyue was evidently tired, as his previously clean-shaven chin was now sprouting tiny stubble.

When they reached the entrance of Lin Wanwan’s neighborhood, Lin Wanwan was about to get off the car, but Lu Shouyue insisted on driving inside to drop her off at her door while joking, "Don’t worry, late at night, I won’t come in. Just let me watch you go inside, okay?"

Lin Wanwan had to accept his kindness, and when they arrived at the villa area, Lu Shouyue said, "So this is where you live, the environment here is quite nice."

Lin Wanwan laughed, "Yes, but this neighborhood was built early, there’s no separation between people and cars. I’m here, this is my house."

Before getting off the car, Lin Wanwan took off the suit jacket and returned it to him; the back was torn anyway and now it didn’t matter since she was at the doorstep, just showing the back slightly.

"Today has been so troublesome for you, previously the expenses you covered for me, please send me the amount, and I’ll pay you back for my friends. Thank you very much!"

Lu Shouyue laughed, "No need to be so polite."

Watching Lin Wanwan enter the house, Lu Shouyue then withdrew his complicated gaze and drove away.

Just by casually surveying the exterior environment of the villa, he could conclude that Lin Wanwan lived alone. A young girl living alone in a villa is rare, where are her family members?

Lin Wanwan returned to her room, changed into ancient attire, opened the safe, and put on the Jade Bracelet. Then she took a few Lindt chocolate balls, unwrapped them, and placed them in a small porcelain jar. She then returned to the Tang Dynasty and quickly found Kun Lun waiting in the forest.

"Kun Lun, let’s go!"

The carriage "da-da-da" entered the village entrance, blocked by several carriages that clogged the road.

Kun Lun, with a stern face, was poised to, at Lin Wanwan’s command, throw others into the sea along with their horses.

"Who’s in front?" Lin Wanwan raised her voice to ask.

Seeing her autowagon appear, the people busy in the clan dropped what they were doing and greeted her with a shout.

"What are you doing, what are you doing? Why are you blocking our Teacher Lin’s vehicle? If you don’t move, do you believe we’ll smash your carriages?" Lin Mengjin was the first to shout.

The carriages hurriedly drove forward to make way, and the people in the carriage quickly shouted, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! I’m the shopkeeper from Yuebin Building."

"Teacher Lin, I’m the shopkeeper from Hospitality."

"I am... "

This group, seeing the ferocious expressions of the rural folk, panicked and reported their identities, surprisingly all being shopkeepers of various taverns.
