Chapter 8: Indignant Fury

  Even Ben Hua and Hao Lianju were shocked when they saw the scene in the second-floor room.

  Gong Zijun held her cheek, looking at the men lying in a pool of blood in front of her with a terrified expression. Her pale skin was stained with a few drops of blood, making her face look even more eerie. But the scene on the ground was even more unbearable, with blood flowing all over the place, and the people on the ground not only failed to survive but were also brutally cut in half by a single knife.

  On this night, strong winds howled outside the window, and heavy rain poured down, as if wanting to merge the entire world into the rainwater.

  After Guan Ye fed Ye Shengge the ginger soup, the heat on his head finally subsided a little. The wound from being shot last time had not yet healed, and the doctor had specifically warned that he could not get wet, as the toxins had been cleared from the wound, but if it got wet again, the wound would rot. Ye Shengge frowned uncomfortably in his sleep, sinking back into slumber once more.

  The wind rustled through the branches, and the rain filled almost the entire dark sky.

  The car, with its silver-white body, rushed into the villa in a hurry. As soon as the door opened, someone came forward to hold up an umbrella.

  Situ Shangxuan stepped out of the car door, hugged Qianlian Xia tightly and walked into the villa with big strides, his face was angrier than ever.

  The bodyguards followed closely behind him, not even daring to breathe loudly. The butlers and servants all rushed up in a flurry, waiting for orders at any moment.

  As soon as Situ Shangxuan stepped onto the spiral staircase, he instructed the butler beside him, "Immediately have Dr. Liu come over, I'll give him ten minutes, and after he arrives, have him come directly to the room upstairs."

  "Also, have someone go to the room and put out hot water, bring medicated dressings. Hurry up!"

  "Yes, young master." The young master's words were like an imperial edict, and the steward didn't delay for a moment in ordering someone to fetch hot water, while he himself went to call Dr. Liu on the phone.

  The remaining dozen or so bodyguards stood respectfully in place, waiting for orders.

  Situ Shangxuan's foot was about to step onto the escalator when his hand, with a visible vein on the back, tightly grasped the phone and threw it backwards with lightning speed. More than ten bodyguards didn't dare dodge, and the leader of the bodyguards caught the phone with a stiff face, stifling a grunt in his throat. He stood still, swallowing a mouthful of blood that had risen to his throat, and knelt down on one knee.

  A burst of anger, and behind him, more than a dozen bodyguards immediately knelt down on one knee, "Young Master, please calm down."

  Situ Shangxuan's back was cold and unapproachable, he held the woman in his arms as if she were his life, his face twisted with anger to the extreme, his emerald green eyes turned deep and dark, "Get out!" A single word suppressed his rage, and he stepped onto the spiral staircase.

  A cold voice floated down from the spiral staircase, "Go back and each of you will receive fifty iron rods. If there is a next time, you will apologize on your own!"

  "Thank you, Young Master!" The bodyguards chimed in unison. If they hadn't been following the young master for so many years and failed to protect his most precious woman, it wouldn't have just stopped at fifty iron rods.

  Cai Shangxuan took big strides hastily walking into the room, carefully placing Qian Lianxia in his arms onto the bed. As soon as she came into contact with the soft big bed and fragrant quilt, Qian Lianxia's fearful body trembled, and her entire delicate body burrowed into the quilt, her white suit falling off her body as she moved.

  Tattered clothes reminded her of the humiliation and torture she had suffered. Situ Shangxuan's warm fingertips touched the bruise on her wrist, where blood blisters had formed from being tied up, and his eyes conveyed unspoken pain. Her small, red lips still oozed blood, and the bruises on her pale skin revealed the extent of her mistreatment. Situ Shangxuan's hand involuntarily tightened around hers in anguish.

  Her face was red, an abnormal red, and Situ Shangxuan's heart skipped a beat as he instinctively placed the palm of his hand on her forehead. Indeed, she had a fever, her forehead burning hot, and her body was drenched in sweat.

  Dr. Liu entered from the doorway, followed by the butler and a large group of maidservants. Sito Shangxuan stood up to give way, letting those who remained listen for Dr. Liu's orders at any time, while he called the butler out of the room himself.

  He walked towards the study while instructing the housekeeper, "Go call Miss's home and tell them that Miss is staying here with me today and won't be returning."

  The butler nodded clearly, "Alright, young master."

  "Situ Shangxuan stopped him again, 'If the young lady's parents ask anything, don't say a word, just say that the young lady will rest here today and I'll take care of the rest.'"

  "Very well, young master," the butler replied again, as they approached the study door. The butler bowed and stepped back, "If you have nothing else, I will withdraw."

  "Hmm," Situ Shangxuan replied faintly as he walked into the study.

  He picked up the phone on his desk, and his long fingers quickly pressed a few keys. "Investigate clearly who has business dealings with the Long family, and cut off all their funding chains if necessary. Also, order them to use any method to bring Palace Zi to me by tomorrow noon. I want to see her in a warehouse at 6 o'clock tonight. Before I arrive, as long as she's not dead, you can dispose of her as you like!"

  Situ Shangxuan hung up the phone with a gloomy face and strode out of the study.

  Ye Sheng Ge, if this is the way to make Zhou Zhou give up on you, then I'll help you achieve that!

  The room was already in a mess, the maid had already put hot water in the bathtub, and Situ Shangxuan waved his hand, and the maids swarmed out one after another.

  He hastily walked to the bedside, looking at Chihiro Natsu who was lying on the bed with a painful expression like a startled deer, and asked Dr. Liu who had put down his stethoscope, "How is she?"

  Dr. Liu sighed, stood up and patted Shi Shangxuan's shoulder, received Shi Shangxuan's slightly angry gaze, and immediately withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

  "She's fine, just a few bruises on her body and a low fever. I'll prescribe some cold medicine and something to calm her nerves later. After taking the medicine and getting some rest, she'll be back to normal by tomorrow."

  Dr. Liu stood up and packed away his medical kit, then looked at Situ Shangxuan again, "She's very wet, her clothes need to be changed as soon as possible."

  Situ Shangxuan nodded, looking at the woman on the bed with infinite tenderness in his eyes. "I will take good care of her."

  As soon as Dr. Liu left, the whole room immediately fell silent, so quiet that you could hear Situ Shangxuan's heartbeat like a drum.

  He gently picked her up from the bed and walked into the bathroom, where the hot water in the bathtub was steaming with white smoke, which soon fogged up the mirror.

  The woman in his arms had a tangled expression, occasionally frowning and occasionally whispering in pain.

  Her skin outside stuck to him, although it wasn't exactly a close contact, but still made Situ Shangxuan's usually calm emotions collapse.
