Chapter 457: Chapter 457: If You Don’t Act, You Won’t Die (2)
The person on the phone was none other than Auntie Qiu, the former caregiver of Lu Wanwan’s grandmother.
“Miss Lu, I’m sorry, I raised a no-good daughter,” Qiu Wenpei said on the phone, crying, “It was she who eavesdropped on our conversation last time and sold the information to that woman… And you still have the nerve to cry? Go and make it clear to them!”
Qiu Wenpei’s daughter’s crying could also be heard on the phone.
“Miss Lu, don’t worry, this mess was caused by my daughter, and I’ll make her find a way to clear it up.”
“Sniffle… What good will clearing things up do now, who will believe me…”
“Then go find a journalist, Miss Lu is innocent, tell it clearly to the journalists!”
Lu Wanwan thought for a moment and looked at the police, “Auntie, actually, there’s no need to find a journalist, I’ve already sued Lin Yu. If your daughter is willing to be a witness…”
“Yes, yes,” Auntie Qiu quickly replied, “Miss Lu, rest assured, even if it means putting her in jail, she will testify.”
“Auntie, don’t worry, she’s just going to be a witness.”
Lu Wanwan hung up the phone and communicated the situation to the police.
Lin Yu lay on the bed, looking as if she were dead, with a vacant expression in her eyes.
She muttered to herself, “Why did he do this…”
With her indecent photos dug up, there was no chance of Lin Yu clearing her name, not even her father could endure such a scandal.
When she left the hospital, the sun outside was blazing, making it dazzlingly bright.
Seeing Lin Yu meet her deserved fate didn’t bring much relief to her heart.
All these were pointless now. Even if Lin Yu were sliced a thousand times, it couldn’t bring her mother back.
If only she had known this before, maybe her mother wouldn’t have…
Lu Wanwan placed her hands in her pouch, lowered her gaze, and felt as if she couldn’t breathe at the thought of those things.
Just as she stepped out of the hospital entrance, a figure walked towards her with hurried, odd steps.
When she realized it, it was too late to dodge, and they collided.
“I’m sorry,” Lu Wanwan instinctively supported the other person, apologizing, “I didn’t see… Are you okay?”
The man she bumped into was tall and sturdy, and what should have been a mere apology became something else when he seemed to be in great pain after the not-at-all-heavy hit, and suddenly bent over.
“Hey, sir, what’s wrong?” Lu Wanwan panicked.
She couldn’t clearly see his face, as it was half-obscured by his dark, glossy hair.
After the bump, he gripped her arm tightly, the one she had offered to help him with, and clutched his lower abdomen with the other, as if suddenly unable to stand.
The stranger didn’t speak, but she heard his breathing quicken and his body tremble.
“Sir, did you come to the hospital because you’re not feeling well? I’ll get someone to take you inside! I’m really sorry about earlier!”
She grew anxious, remembering this was near the hospital, thinking maybe he had come to see a doctor because he was unwell.
No wonder he reacted with such sudden pain from her careless bump.
She looked around frantically, but no one met her gaze.
No one wanted to get involved in this mess, what if it was a scam?
“Sir, can you walk? Can I help you walk a bit?” She had wanted to find a man to help, but seeing everyone’s indifferent attitude made her feel disheartened. So she decided to try herself.
If he absolutely couldn’t walk, she would have to go inside and call for a stretcher.
“I’m sorry, I can’t… can’t go in.”
Just when she was about to look for a doctor, she heard a struggling voice.
