187: Chapter 187: Feeding with the Mouth is Better 187: Chapter 187: Feeding with the Mouth is Better Su He’s words turned Ye Hanqing’s face pale.
And she had to admit, Su He’s words made sense.
On learning that Su He was from the Su Family, she did not want to offend her, as it would bring no benefit to herself.
But clearly, Su He was on Jing Xuan’s side.
Then, she frowned and asked, “Miss Su, I don’t seem to have offended you, have I?”
“I know you’re close to Jing Xuan, but this is a matter between her and me.
Isn’t it a bit improper for you to intervene?”
On hearing this, Su He chuckled softly and said, “It seems Miss Ye really is a noble person who forgets things.”
After listening to her words, Ye Hanqing’s eyebrows furrowed again.
When had she ever offended her?
Clearly, Ye Hanqing had already forgotten the kidnapping incident involving Su Yimo.
Or perhaps, she never took it seriously.
Su He curved her red lips, a mocking smile on her lips: “Miss Ye, it seems the lesson Xiaxia gave you last time wasn’t memorable enough.”
In an instant, an unpleasant memory she had forgotten surfaced in Ye Hanqing’s mind.
She had been “brainwashing” herself all along, trying to forget that humiliation.
She had never been treated like that before…
In a daze, she remembered the child she had just seen…
Originally, she thought the child was Jing Xuan’s, so she had people kidnap the child.
But not only did she fail to make Jing Xuan pay, but she was also outwitted by her.
Only afterwards did she learn the child had nothing to do with Jing Xuan; she didn’t care by then, and therefore didn’t associate the child with Su He.
But now that she was reminded, she remembered it again.
So, the child was Su He and Jiang Feng’s…
All of a sudden, she didn’t know what to say.
“I didn’t know that child was yours at that time…”
“Miss Ye,” Su He interjected, “Regardless of whether the child was mine or not, an adult like you should never use a child as a bargaining chip!”
“Since you’ve said it’s a matter between you and Xiaxia, then you shouldn’t involve anyone else.”
With an indifferent expression, Su He said, “Miss Ye, some things cannot be settled by mere words.”
In an instant, Ye Hanqing found herself at a loss for words: “…”
After speaking, Su He turned around and left.
Wu Tingting, hiding around the corner, hurriedly tried to dodge, but Su He had already approached and noticed her.
Su He glanced at her, it was her again.
Wu Tingting felt uncomfortable under her gaze.
“I…
I was just passing by, and stopped when I saw you two talking.
I wasn’t eavesdropping on your conversation on purpose.
Don’t misunderstand.”
She blinked her eyes, offering an explanation.
Su He inexplicably gave her another look, but did not speak.
The conversation she had with Ye Hanqing was no secret; she had no idle time to bother with these details.
Wu Tingting saw she was leaving again and quickly called out to her.
“Wait a minute.”
“Yes?”
Su He raised an eyebrow at her.
However, the next second, she heard Wu Tingting say, “Can I add you on WeChat?”
“…”
Su He frowned, and let out an abrupt laugh, not expecting such a question.
She even suspected that she might have heard it wrong.
“I’m sorry, Miss Wu, I refuse.”
Wu Tingting immediately asked, “Why?”
Su He replied, “I don’t know you well.”
“If we add each other on WeChat, we can get to know each other by chatting, right?
Isn’t that how strangers become good friends?”
Listening to her straightforward yet somewhat reasonable words, Su He suddenly found it a bit humorous.
She then asked, “From what you’ve said, Miss Wu, do you want to be friends with me?
Or do you have other intentions?”
Actually, it wasn’t the first time Su He had seen Wu Tingting; she just had not remembered her at first.
But now, she did recall seeing a photo of the two together by chance at An Xueyin’s.
So…
She couldn’t help but suspect her motives for approaching.
“Of course it’s true,” Wu Tingting said very seriously.
“I think the you I see is different from the one I’ve heard about.
Not only are you beautiful, but I also quite like your personality.”
Su He: “…”
Wu Tingting’s words were always unpredictable, never knowing what she might say next.
“And then?”
She asked indifferently.
“And then I want to be friends with you.”
It was only after Wu Tingting finished speaking that she belatedly realized something, “I don’t think I ever told you my last name was Wu, how did you know?”
Su He said, “I saw you standing with President Wu, I guessed.”
And she didn’t object when she called her that just now.
Wu Tingting was slightly startled, “That’s amazing?
You figured it out?”
Su He now found her a bit silly…
She didn’t mean to belittle her; it was just that she had previously thought Wu Tingting was quite arrogant, but now she seemed a little naive!
Su He simply smiled faintly without saying anything.
“So, what’s your answer?” Wu Tingting asked again, furrowing her brow.
Su He had never met anyone who made friends in such a manner, almost like a “robber.”
…
By the time Su He returned to find Jing Xuan, nearly half an hour had passed, and the birthday banquet was nearing its end.
“Mummy, Mummy, go check on Daddy…”
As soon as she stopped, Su Yimo popped up from nowhere, tugging at the hem of her clothes, saying anxiously.
“What’s wrong?”
She looked down at the little fellow, then lifted her head to see Jiang Feng, who had silently followed behind the little one.
Jiang Feng said, “Master seems to be feeling unwell.”
Feeling unwell?
When Su He arrived at the rest room, she saw the man lying on the sofa, motionless, his long legs awkwardly resting on the ground.
As she crouched down, the man opened his eyes.
Looking at her with a “weak” expression…
Su He’s eyebrows knitted slightly, her face full of confusion and bewilderment.
She had only been gone a short while, hadn’t she?
Why had it gotten so serious?
Seeing the sweat beading on his forehead, it didn’t seem to be a fake.
“Does the wound hurt?”
As she spoke, she reached to lift his shirt.
He hadn’t complained of pain before, so why now…
Immediately thereafter, she heard him say, “It hurts a little, feels numb around the wound.”
Numb?
Now Su He’s brows furrowed again.
The wound wasn’t very deep and shouldn’t have caused this kind of problem.
Meanwhile, she also lifted his shirt; the gauze bandaging the wound wasn’t soaked with blood.
Without further thought, Su He began to unwrap his gauze to check the wound herself.
When she lifted the gauze, her pupils constricted slightly.
How could this be!
Her expression changed, and naturally, Jiang Feng saw it, “What’s wrong?”
Not wanting to waste a single second, Su He immediately called out, “Jiang Feng, come in!”
Jiang Feng heard Su He’s stern voice and immediately rushed in, “Young Madam, what ha…”ppened?
“Quick, to the hospital!”
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Su He.
Jiang Feng caught a glimpse of the wound on Jiang Yan’s waist with the corner of his eye, and his face changed slightly; even without medical knowledge, seeing the slightly purplish wound, he knew the seriousness of the situation.
“…”
Just as the two were escorting Jiang Yan out of the resting room, Jing Xuan and Lu Zhiyang came over with Su Baobao.
Jing Xuan asked, “What happened?”
“Take Xiaxia, Baobao for now, we need to make a trip to the hospital, please inform my brother,” Su He said at an extremely fast pace.
Jing Xuan could see her nervousness and quickly nodded in response, “Alright, I understand.”
Little Su Yimo watched the scene, wanting to say something, but he also knew that his mommy was in a hurry, so he said nothing.
…
Half an hour later.
Beijing First Hospital.
Su Tianyi and Su Zhimian, Lu Zhiyang, and Jing Xuan had all arrived at the hospital, and Xiao Si, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, was also there.
In the hospital room, Jiang Yan’s wound had been re-treated.
But on the way to the hospital, he had already passed out.
He was now just suffering from low blood oxygen saturation and irregular heartbeat.
Su He had even had a sample of his tissue and the dagger sent for analysis.
“The police just relayed a message that the person said he was unaware, claiming he simply bought the dagger randomly from a street seller.”
After hearing the news, Su Zhimian immediately had someone inquire at the police station.
Su He stood in front of the hospital bed, looking at the man lying there with closed eyes and wearing an oxygen mask.
The cut was originally meant for her, and at this moment, her emotions were complex.
Such an incident was unexpected by everyone.
And no one thought that there would be something wrong with the dagger.
…
Another half hour passed.
The lab results were out.
An older doctor looked at Su He and said, “Take a look for yourself, Xiao Su.”
Chen Minsheng was the vice president of Beijing First Hospital and also a student of Su Yiguo; naturally, he recognized Su He.
Su He took the lab report from his hand and immediately frowned upon seeing the result.
“Snake Poison?”
Chen Minsheng nodded, his expression grave, “Yes, but for now we have no way to identify which type of snake’s poison it is.”
“Moreover, the dagger was soaked in snake poison.”
“However, the good news is the poison has not yet eroded his organs, indicating that the toxicity is not strong.
Currently, the concern is that we do not know which snake poison it is; in general, antivenom is most effective when it specifically targets the type of snake poison, but this, you understand already.”
Su He naturally understood this.
Chen Minsheng then said, “The situation now is that we need to simultaneously inject two different types of antivenom, as well as an antitetanus toxin.”
Su He: “Alright, administer it to him.”
Right now, she didn’t have much time to investigate which snake poison it was, and she didn’t have a source to trace it either.
“I’ll have someone arrange it immediately.”
Fortunately, the hospital had a sufficient reserve of antivenoms, so there was no need for an immediate concoction.
After injecting the antivenoms, Jiang Yan’s blood oxygen saturation also improved.
“Let’s not tell Grandma and Grandpa about this for now.
If they ask about us, just say we had to leave due to a sudden matter,” Su He said to Su Zhimian who was beside her.
Some things are better not known to the elderly in too much detail, to avoid worry and guilt.
Su Zhimian responded, “Alright, I understand, rest assured, my dad and the others will take care of Grandma and Grandpa.”
“Do we need to investigate this matter?”
Su He said in silence, “If that person was purely targeting Madam Lu, then it might have been an accident, after all, he didn’t know I would be with Madam Lu at the time.”
Actually, no matter how you think about it, you can’t find a single flaw in this incident.
The man was originally a driver for the Lu Family, but due to some reasons, Madam Lu had him dismissed last month.
His wife, seeing that he lost his well-paid job and then found another job that only paid a bit over three thousand a month, was very dissatisfied.
The couple argued every day, and in the end, his wife took their child and went back to her mother’s house.
At that time, the man had pleaded with Zhang Lanying not to fire him, but Zhang Lanying did not agree to his request.
So, he harbored resentment, leading to what happened today.
If it really was an accident, then they could only be said to be unlucky to encounter such a thing.
“Let’s keep this incident quiet for now,” Su He then said.
Su Zhimian replied, “Alright, I will talk to the hospital about it.”
…
Around three in the afternoon, Jiang Yan finally woke up.
During this time, Su He had been sitting by the bed, waiting.
The slightest movement from him, and she would notice.
“You’re awake, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?
Hmm?”
She immediately stood up, leaned over, and asked him.
Jiang Yan opened his bleary eyes, looked at her, and was stunned for a few seconds before he slowly spoke, “So I didn’t die, huh?
I thought I was dead.
Then I would never see you and our son again.”
Su He: “…”
How come this sounds so strange, yet I can’t quite pinpoint what’s odd about it.
It just…suddenly seems so sentimental…
“Don’t worry, you have such a strong life force; even the King of Hell would be scared to take you.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
“But I feel like after I passed out, I kept hearing you whisper in my ear that you like me, and then you called me back.”
“That’s your delusion, I never said that, don’t falsely accuse me.”
“…”
A conversation with no nutritional value.
Subsequently, Su He checked him over and found no problems, which put her mind at ease.
Then she helped him sit up.
“Where’s our son?”
The man asked, looking at her.
Su He answered, “He’s gone out with Xiaxia, they should be back soon.”
With that, she turned to pour him a glass of water.
“The little guy didn’t cry?”
She heard the man ask from behind her.
Holding the cup, she turned around and walked back.
Then, with a light tone mixed with a hint of teasing, she said, “Why would he cry?
You’re not dead.
If one day you really get taken away by the King of Hell, it won’t be too late to cry then.”
The man responded, “Would you cry then?”
He had never seen her cry, except when in bed, being pushed a bit too far by him, her eyes he cherished the most would fill with mist, but that couldn’t really be considered crying.
Su He replied irritably, “What, do you really want us to wail for you?”
Without waiting for his response, she simply said, “Here, drink the water.”
Su He offered the water glass to him.
Jiang Yan glanced up at her, pursed his lips slightly, and said in a low voice, “My hand has no strength.”
Su He looked at him and without a word, she fed him the drink.
He was the “Master” now, and he was injured in the process of saving her, not to mention that she is his wife.
On account of these things, she reasonably should be at his “beck and call.”
But the next second, she heard a sentence that left her speechless.
He said, “It’d be even better if it was mouth-to-mouth.”
Su He glared at him, then slightly narrowed her eyes, and said, “The snake poison hasn’t made you brain-damaged, has it?
Do you still remember how much is two plus two?”
Ever since he woke up, he kept saying all sorts of strange things.
She was almost starting to doubt whether his soul had been taken over by someone else?
