Chapter 776 - 776 762 Not Afraid to Be Skinned (1)_1

Chapter 776: 762, Not Afraid to Be Skinned (1)_1 Chapter 776: 762, Not Afraid to Be Skinned (1)_1 Hearing Bai Jue’s words, the last shred of hope in everyone’s hearts was thoroughly shattered.

They all had some understanding of Bai Jue’s medical skills, if even he was unable to do anything, what was to become of Jingwu?

The atmosphere grew heavy, you could hear a pin drop.

After a while, Rhee wiped the corner of her eyes, reaching out to hold Jian Qing’s hand, “Little Qingqing, Jingwu will surely wake up. Don’t worry too much. Now you just need to look after your pregnancy. As for the rumors and reporters outside, we will handle it.”

Jian Qing set down her bowl, her thick lashes lightly drooping, covering the glow in her eyes, “Mom, I want to personally deal with those rumors. You guys don’t need to worry.”

Halfway through speaking, she withdrew her hand, gently fiddling with the wedding ring on her hand, her gaze icy, “No one can say a word against Xiaojing, no one.”

Her cold voice, light as a breeze yet secretly held a chilling coldness.

Rhee and the others watched her, eyes complicated, most of all they felt heartache.

“Jian Qing, don’t carry everything on your own; remember we are a family,” Quan Hao’s serious expression softened, speaking in a warm voice.

“What your father said is correct. If anything happens, just let us know,” Rhee gently patted her shoulder, her voice soft.

Jian Qing nodded, “Dad, Mom, I want to take Xiaojing back to Shijin Haoting to stay.”

“Back to Shijin Haoting?” Rhee was surprised.

“Aunt, don’t worry, during this time, we will also stay at Shijin Haoting,” Bai Jue chimed in.

Quan Hao turned to Jian Qing and spoke, “It’s up to you.”

He thought that if Jingwu were awake, he would surely go along with any decision Jian Qing made.

In Jingwu’s current state, it would indeed be more appropriate to recuperate at Shijin Haoting.

“Thank you, Dad,” Jian Qing said.

Rhee sighed softly, “You silly child, families don’t need to thank each other.”

“Jian Qing, presently the reporters are at the doctor’s door, taking Jingwu back, who knows if they would try to besiege us on the way,” Quan Mingxuan worried about the reporters who were blocking the hospital entrance, his brows furrowed.

Jian Qing scoffed, “If they are not afraid of being skinned alive, then let them come and block our way.”

Her arrogant voice, held the slightest hint of murderous intent.

Jian Luo and Black Jack exchanged a glance, the corners of their lips curling into similar smiles.

Anyone who dared to provoke the current Jian Qing will be the unlucky one.

“Knock, knock, knock–”

The sound of knocking on the door echoed again.

Quan Mingxuan and the others looked towards the sound, unanimously recalling Song Xirou who they had left outside earlier.

She couldn’t still be stubbornly waiting out there, could she?

Jian Luo hurried to open the door first.

As the door opened, unsurprisingly, the woman dressed in patient’s clothes was an eyesore.

He leaned against the door frame, glanced at her leisurely, an intentionally surprised tone in his voice, “So this is what something more annoying than a fly looks like.”

“What’s it like, let me have a look,” Bai Jue walked over, joining Jian Luo.

He appraised Song Xirou, his gaze fell on her scarred face, he sarcastically said, “Tsk, tsk…. it’s so ugly that I almost lost my appetite for breakfast.”

With each teasing word from the two men, Song Xirou’s face turned red, her body shuddering, “You, you guys shouldn’t go too far.”

Jian Luo casually picked at his ear, “Bai Jue, her voice is even more annoying than a duck’s.”

Quacking, incredibly annoying.

“Hey, how can you talk like that?” Bai Jue disagreed and glared at him.

Jian Luo looked back at him innocently, “Am I wrong?”

“Of course, you are, a duck never did anything to you, why are you insulting it like this?” Bai Jue glanced at Song Xirou, her face turned green with rage, and he slowly said.

Even ducks deserve respect.

Jian Luo slapped his forehead, “Right, I misspoke, the duck’s quacking is far more pleasant to hear than her talking.”

When dealing with cunning and manipulative women like Song Xirou, there was no room for gentlemanly demeanor or civility.

“Pfft!”

A suppressed giggle echoed through the room.

Noticing the gazes of Bai Jue and the others turn towards her, Quan Yifei covered her mouth, unable to suppress her shaking shoulders.

She vowed that she hadn’t meant to laugh out loud.

But the words from Bai Jue and Jian Luo were just too funny.

If this was a comedy show, they could have easily pulled off a comedy sketch in minutes.

“Enough!”

Song Xirou clenched her fists and yelled out angrily.

“Song Xirou, you’re not welcome here, if you don’t want to bring trouble on yourself, I would advise you to leave immediately,” Quan Mingxuan said in a chilling voice.

Ignoring him, Song Xirou scanned the room, her gaze finally landing on Jian Qing.

“Jian Qing, I need to talk to you.”

Her eyes stubbornly locked onto Jian Qing, it seemed like she wouldn’t leave until she had spoken with Jian Qing.

Jian Qing’s eyes scanned Song Xirou indifferently, “Let her in.”

Jian Luo and Bai Jue stepped aside, without their obstruction, Song Xirou easily walked in.

Her gaze stealthily glanced towards the inner room, experiencing a heart-wrenching sensation, she wished she could rush in immediately to see if Jingwu was truly unconscious.

She thought she had concealed her intentions well, yet every small move she made from the moment she stepped into the room, was caught by Jian Qing.

“What is it?”

Song Xirou retracted her gaze, seeing the undisguised dislike on Rhee and the others’ faces, she felt increasingly annoyed.

Despite her increasing anger, she still maintained a smile on her face, “Jian Qing, I heard that CEO Quan has sustained severe injuries and is unconscious. Since we are in the same hospital, I thought to come to pay a visit, how is CEO Quan now?”

Jian Qing’s eyes narrowed, a chill flashed through them, “How did you know we are in this ward, and who told you Jingwu is unconscious?”

Everyone stayed silent, watching Song Xirou quietly.

“I…” Song Xirou bit her lower lip, “I learned about it from the news too, the reporters have surrounded the hospital entrance. I found out that CEO Quan was staying at this floor’s ward only after asking the hospital’s nurse.”

“Is that so?” Jian Qing’s thin lips mockingly twitched, an oppressive feeling filled her eyes, “I was not aware that the nurses in this hospital had started revealing patients’ private information.”

Upon hearing this, Quan Mingxuan shot a contemptuous glance at Song Xirou.

The news of Jingwu’s hospitalization had already been locked down by them. Without their permission, the hospital’s doctors and nurses would never have revealed Jingwu’s ward number. Did Song Xirou think they were so easy to fool?

“Jian Qing, yesterday my car collided with CEO Quan’s. Now the news has spread throughout Beijing, it’s creating a storm within the city. Do you have any strategies to deal with it?” Song Xirou laughed embarrassedly, changing the topic, “I know CEO Quan must have had important matters to attend to yesterday, so that’s why he had to leave in such a hurry after the car accident. You don’t have to worry, I won’t blame him. If you need any help, I can do my best to help.”

She put in all her effort to act, but unfortunately, everyone present only felt her acting was crude.
