Chapter 758: Chapter 758: His Wife
The wails of ambulances and police sirens, mixed with the noise of passing cars, created chaos, but Chi Yue heard nothing.
Numbly, she watched the man being lifted into the ambulance, watched the medical staff perform emergency procedures on him, and finally found her voice as the ambulance doors closed, "I am his wife, I’m coming with you."
Bystanders and police officers all turned to look at her, but she didn’t care, scrambling into the ambulance and staring intently at the colorless man.
...
At the entrance to the operating room, Chi Yue’s whole body trembled uncontrollably.
Nan Yuan and Fu Hanyan arrived together.
Fu Hanyan had thought it was just a minor traffic accident, but seeing the color drain from Chi Yue’s face, she became distressed.
Nan Yuan, holding her, approached Chi Yue, "I heard a brother say he saw you follow the ambulance... What’s the situation now?"
Chi Yue’s eyes finally focused, "We don’t know yet, he... he’s lost a lot of blood."
Nan Yuan’s face was taut, "Is it him?"
Chi Yue nodded with difficulty.
"Wasn’t he in Beijing? How did he end up here?"
"I don’t know, I was driving normally, and when I reached the center of the crossroads, he just appeared, too fast... He was too fast, I didn’t see anything clearly."
Every time Chi Yue thought of Fu Rongyin lying in a pool of blood, her body shook uncontrollably.
Nan Yuan sensed that Fu Hanyan was also off, seated her on a nearby chair, then helped Chi Yue over before saying, "The surgery won’t be done so quickly. Give me your car keys, I will check the dash cam."
He had two brothers in the police department and could also check the surveillance for that street on the way.
Chi Yue handed over her keys and continued to stare at the emergency room door.
Nan Yuan glanced at the two women in distress, then called Nan Bingyu to have her come over.
His actions had to be swift; the incident was so sudden that it couldn’t be just coincidental. He needed to secure the evidence before anyone else tampered with it.
On the way to the police station, Nan Yuan made several calls, instructing a friend to guard the dash cam, then called Chu Shuo.
Chu Shuo’s response was uncooperative, "What’s the matter?"
Nan Yuan’s attitude was even worse, "Chi Yue and Fu Rongyin had an accident, they’re being resuscitated at the hospital. There’s no one in charge there, hurry up and go."
Chu Shuo: "I’m busy."
Nan Yuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Chu Shuo, you’re not a child anymore. This is about a life at stake, even if you don’t want to go, you have to!"
Chu Shuo hung up the phone.
Nan Yuan took a deep breath, about to call a second time, when he received a call from Nan Bingyu. She said she was on her way with Xi Yihang and asked if there were any other instructions.
Nan Yuan thought to himself, at critical times, only family can be relied upon.
With Xi Yihang there, the women wouldn’t succumb to pressure.
Not long after Nan Yuan left, Fan Xuesong arrived, having heard the news.
The entire hallway echoed with her shrill, piercing voice, "Chi Yue! What have you done to my son!"
Chi Yue’s reaction was slow, and by the time Fan Xuesong approached her, she was already gripping Chi Yue’s collar and lifting her up.
"You wretch, what have you done to my son? Why is my son lying in there?"
Chi Yue, weakly fluttering her eyelids, saw it was Fan Xuesong, and her lids fell again, showing no intention of responding.
Fan Xuesong, infuriated by her attitude, shook Chi Yue’s shoulders violently, "Why did you have to hit him? If you didn’t want to divorce him, you should have just said no, why would you take his life too, why!"
