After going in, Xia Wantang ordered a cup of milk tea and called Wen Xuanyuan, telling her she would come over later.
After hanging up the phone, she sat there in a daze.
Her mind was in a complete mess.
Being slept with by someone she didn't know was bad enough, but it was getting more and more outrageous.
She had previously thought it was Du Jiasheng, which made her feel utterly disgusted. For a moment, she even wished she were dead.
After finally coming to terms with that, someone else told her.
The person who slept with her last night was someone else entirely.
A stranger named Ling Yuchen, a name she had never heard before.
However, judging by his voice, he didn't sound very old.
But in that situation last night, anyone who would take advantage of her was certainly not a good person.
Still, compared to Du Jiasheng, that greasy old man, he was slightly better.
But that didn't mean she could accept being slept with by a stranger.
She didn't doubt the truth of what the person on the phone said at all, because very few people knew about what happened yesterday.
Letting out a sigh, Xia Wantang's eyes couldn't help but redden again.
This was truly a dog's life, what the hell was this.
At this moment, she thought of something else.
If it wasn't Du Jiasheng who slept with her last night, then Xia Linfeng's plan had failed!
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt much better.
Without the help, Xia Linfeng's company would be ruined, which was exactly what he deserved.
As she was thinking, her phone rang.
The caller ID was marked as "Dad."
Xia Wantang's lips curled upwards, and she directly blocked him.
Then she also blocked Xia Wanfu, Xia Yichen, and Han Wenjuan.
Now she couldn't even be bothered to call them "Mom" and "Dad," because they didn't deserve it.
Anyway, she wasn't their biological child, and yesterday's scheme was just her way of repaying their upbringing.
Given how heartless they were, it was unlikely they would call with good intentions.
She could guess why they were calling.
They had probably also received the news that it wasn't Du Jiasheng who slept with her last night.
This made her even more convinced that what the person on the phone had said was true.
If things hadn't gone awry, Xia Linfeng wouldn't have called her at all.
If Du Jiasheng didn't achieve his goal, how could he help Xia Linfeng?
Since she had already severed ties, the fate of the Xia family was none of her concern.
She would rather die outside than return to the Xia family.
The phone calls went unanswered, and her whereabouts were unknown.
The Xia family was in chaos indeed.
Xia Linfeng was furious, so angry that he smashed his phone.
He kept cursing Xia Wantang as an ungrateful wretch, a little bitch, and that raising her was a waste.
In short, he cursed her as nastily as he could.
Han Wenjuan's face was grim. She couldn't get through either, and neither could Xia Wanfu.
Without a doubt, Xia Wantang must have blocked them.
She couldn't help but suspect that Xia Wantang hadn't taken the drug at all, and this was all her scheme.
But she had personally drunk the chicken soup that had been laced with something.
So what exactly was going on?
Finally, Xia Linfeng and Han Wenjuan decided to go to the Zhongsheng Hotel themselves to investigate what had happened.
—₍˄·͈༝·͈˄*₎◞̑̑
Xia Wantang had drunk more than half of her milk tea when her phone rang again.
It was that unknown number.
She quickly answered, only to hear a voice from the other end say, "Where are you?"
"I'm at the Mixue Bingcheng milk tea shop. I'll be out now."
After hanging up, she picked up her unfinished milk tea and hurried out of the shop.
She looked around, her eyes full of confusion.
There were many people coming and going, but she had no idea which one was Ling Yuchen.
"Beep beep..."
Just then, a black car parked by the roadside honked its horn.
Xia Wantang instinctively looked over. She saw the car door open, and a tall, slender man stepped out.
He was at least 1.8 meters tall, with fair skin. His impeccably tailored black suit accentuated his perfect figure, making him look like a natural clothes hanger.
His features were almost perfect, but his pair of narrow, deep, cold eyes seemed to hold no warmth.
Xia Wantang was stunned but didn't lose her composure.
She quickly looked away and lowered her head, staring at her toes.
She wondered if this man was Ling Yuchen.
If so, he was at least better than that old man Du Jiasheng.
"Hello, I am Ling Yuchen."
Ling Yuchen walked up to Xia Wantang and tried to soften his voice.
The first thing he noticed when he saw her was her reddened eyes, the wound on her forehead, the dried bloodstains on her face, and the slap mark.
Xia Wantang immediately became nervous and dared not look up. She had originally planned to scold him when she met him.
Why did he take advantage of her? But this man exuded too much pressure, and she couldn't utter the words she wanted to say.
Ling Yuchen's brows furrowed into a 'chuan' shape. Without a word, he grabbed her wrist and said, "I'll take you to the hospital."
He assumed Xia Wantang's distress was due to her injuries.
He also secretly made a note of the Xia family.
Xia Wantang was startled and struggled, saying, "I, I'm fine."
But the man's strength was too great, and she had no room to resist. She was directly dragged away by him.
Ling Yuchen's thin lips pressed together, and he said coldly, "You're injured, let's go to the hospital first."
Xia Wantang wanted to say something else but was directly pushed into the car.
As soon as she sat down, the car door slammed shut.
Xia Wantang felt a little speechless, finding this man too overbearing.
Ling Yuchen got into the car from the other side and directly instructed, "Han Xiao, to the hospital."
Han Xiao recognized the woman his boss had put in the car from the rearview mirror. She was the same woman from that night.
However, she looked quite disheveled now, and seemed to be injured.
What surprised him was that his boss was actually so concerned about this woman.
Not only did he leave behind numerous company matters to meet her, but he was also personally taking her to the hospital.
It was truly a miracle.
But despite his thoughts, he acted without hesitation, stepping on the accelerator and driving towards the nearest hospital.
And he drove very fast, as his boss's expression was extremely cold, and he didn't dare to delay.
Xia Wantang frowned slightly. She was already confused by this series of actions!
Too many things had happened, and she had long forgotten about her injuries.
She secretly glanced at the man beside her, intending to say that she didn't need to go to the hospital.
But looking at his somber face, she couldn't say a word.
Ling Yuchen sensed her gaze and immediately looked back at her.
But as soon as he looked at Xia Wantang, she quickly lowered her head.
Ling Yuchen pinched his brow and said, "Let's deal with your injuries at the hospital first. I'll explain everything else to you later."
He lowered his voice, afraid of scaring the young girl in front of him.
In his eyes, Xia Wantang didn't even dare to look at him, so he thought she was timid.
Or perhaps she was scared by what happened last night.
Although full of questions, Xia Wantang still quieted down.
The car sped along and stopped at the hospital entrance in no time.
Ling Yuchen got out of the car first and then opened the door for Xia Wantang.
Han Xiao went to park the car, and Ling Yuchen directly led Xia Wantang into the hospital.
