Chapter 471: Chapter 469: You Only Have Five Minutes!
Lu Jinyang was also aware of the situation, so he gave Xiao Qing a reassuring look, took out his phone to call security, and then reported to the police. Only after these actions did he turn his attention back to Lin Xiaoxiao.
She had already stood up, but because the cut on her hand was deep and she had lost quite a lot of blood, her body was swaying as if about to fall.
Lin Xiaoxiao walked to the door of the room, suddenly stopped, and said to Lu Jinyang, "I really want to know why you trust her and not me."
"I trust myself."
"Heh~" Lin Xiaoxiao didn’t say anything else and left the room, staggering away.
They followed her out and only relaxed after seeing Lin Xiaoxiao leave the Lu Family without stopping. Considering the amount of blood Lin Xiaoxiao had lost, but still being able to walk out by herself, it indicated that the issue was probably not that serious.
She looked worriedly at the bloodstains on the ground, "Could it lead to a fatality?"
"No."
After a moment of thought, Xiao Qing asked again, "What exactly happened?"
Without saying anything, Lu Jinyang led her to the study and showed her a segment of the surveillance footage; it displayed the guest room where she had been resting, with only her sleeping soundly in it.
Soon, a figure walked in, stood by the bed for a while, and then flashed a knife, first comparing it against her face, then lingering at the major artery on her neck...
Seeing this, Xiao Qing couldn’t help but feel a chill down her spine.
If Lu Jinyang had appeared just one minute, no, one second later, it was possible she would never wake up again.
Seeming to sense Xiao Qing’s disquiet, Lu Jinyang reached out with a long arm and drew her into his embrace, "I won’t let anything happen to you, trust me."
"But what if something does happen to me?"
As she spoke, she felt his arms tighten around her, as if he wanted to meld her into his very bones, "It won’t happen, I won’t let any accident befall you again while you’re with me, never again."
In fact, when he saw Lin Xiaoxiao’s knife approaching her face, he had run over from the study, but due to extreme fear, his legs were somewhat uncooperative, which is why he made it at the last moment.
Xiao Qing really wanted to tease him: You think you’re a god or something.
But ultimately, she didn’t say it.
Suddenly, Xiao Qing let out a muffled groan, she painfully clutched at her stomach, curled up, and her forehead broke out in a dense sweat.
Realizing something was wrong, Lu Jinyang was scared stiff, "What’s wrong? Where does it hurt?"
"Stomach... my stomach hurts so... much..." After saying this, Xiao Qing’s eyes closed, and she fainted.
Lu Jinyang, not knowing what to do, picked up Xiao Qing and left the study for another guest room. He then took out his phone and dialed a number. Because the other party took too long to answer, he yelled into the phone: "Get the hell over here now, to the Lu Mansion, you’ve got ten minutes—no, five minutes. You only have five minutes!"
After speaking, he hung up the phone and then asked Nanny Zhang to come to fill a hot water bottle to put on her stomach, while he anxiously paced back and forth in the guest room.
The commotion here was a bit loud, enough to disturb the two elders and two children in the toy room.
Lu Zhiyuan’s eyebrows were furrowed as he and Ye Han each carried a child out, thinking they were just talking in the guest room. Little did they know, as soon as they walked into the guest room, they would see the not-yet-dried blood on the floor.
Ye Han was so frightened that she quickly covered the child’s eyes, while Lu Zhiyuan with a stern face swiftly carried the child into another guest room.
