Chapter 419: Song Ling Injured
Translator: _Min_ |
Song Ling hesitated for a moment, his gaze shifting to Gu Dai, then closing his eyes, he made a resolute decision. “Of course!”
Jiang Yue’s smile curled up, but the thought that Song Ling agreed only because of Gu Dai left her deeply unsatisfied. She lowered her eyes, her voice chilling, “Are you willing to sacrifice so much just to save Gu Dai?”
Song Ling, fearing Jiang Yue’s emotions might escalate further, quickly replied, “No, not because of Gu Dai.”
Jiang Yue pressed, “Then why?”
After a moment of thought, Song Ling found an excuse, “You saved my life twice. You are my savior, and it’s only right that I marry you in return.”
He had hoped this explanation would appease Jiang Yue and spare Gu Dai, but her expression grew colder.
Jiang Yue’s demeanor turned maniacal, “But it wasn’t me who saved you those years ago. I just took credit for someone else’s deed. Knowing the truth now, will you still marry me?”
Song Ling was stunned, barely believing, “What-What are you saying?”
Ignoring Song Ling’s question, Jiang Yue’s gaze fell on Gu Dai. Holding the knife, she spoke softly, “I know you actually came for Gu Dai. Now that I’m exposed, even if I marry you, life won’t be easy. I might as well kill the person you love. Even if I die too, it won’t be a loss.”
Seeing Jiang Yue raise the knife, Song Ling’s eyes widened with fury, and he rushed toward her.
Just then, Gu Dai managed to free herself, pushing Jiang Yue away and kicking her out of reach.
Just as Gu Dai had not anticipated, Song Ling happened to run over at that moment. Upon catching his arm, Jiang Yue clung to him like a lifeline, and the hand that wielded the knife ended up stabbing into his body by chance.
Blood spurted out, covering Jiang Yue’s face.
She had exerted all her strength, driving the knife deep into Song Ling’s body.
Jiang Yue, stunned by the scene, felt the sticky blood on her hands and shakily dropped the knife. In panic, she turned to Gu Dai, “It’s your fault! You kicked me away, causing me to stab Song Ling. It’s all your fault!”
She stood up and lunged at Gu Dai with red eyes.
Before Jiang Yue could reach her, Su Ting kicked her away.
He looked at Gu Dai, relieved to see her unharmed.
Meng Chuan and Meng Zhi rushed over, “Daidai, you were too reckless this time. How could you knowingly walk into danger alone, not even informing us? What if something had happened?”
Gu Dai admitted her mistake, “I know I was wrong.”
Meng Chuan and Meng Zhi had more to say, but they were at a loss for words following Gu Dai’s admission.
Zhao Xuan called out, “President Song is injured! Please, help him!”
Gu Dai looked at the blood-covered Song Ling, remembering he was injured trying to save her.
“Let’s go to the hospital!” she urged, turning to Su Ting, “You, second brother, third brother take Jiang Yue back. Make sure she doesn’t escape. I’ll deal with her when I return.”
Su Ting nodded, “Okay, Sis. Don’t worry.”
Song Ling was in critical condition and needed urgent medical attention.
Gu Dai drove as fast as she could to the hospital, leaving Zhao Xuan terrified for his life. Upon arriving, he felt dazed as he stepped out of the car.
He originally thought that Song Ling was crazy enough when driving, but he didn’t expect that Gu Dai would be even crazier.
Wang Lan, walking through the hospital corridor to visit Song Yu, was shocked to see the bloodied Song Ling on the stretcher. Her heart seemed to stop for a few seconds.
She cried out and followed, only to be stopped at the operating room door.
Wang Lan, grabbing Gu Dai, accused her with red eyes, “You wretch, Gu Dai! Did you cause my son’s injury? If anything happens to him, I’ll never forgive you!”
Song Yu was injured and now Song Ling, the pillar of the family, was hurt too.
Wang Lan felt she had lost her support and was completely distraught.
Zhao Xuan stepped in, pulling Wang Lan away, “It wasn’t Miss Gu. It was Jiang Yue who hurt President Song!”
Wang Lan gritted her teeth, “Jiang Yue…. she harmed my son like this? I should have got rid of her a long time ago!”
