Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

There was blood all over Shen Qianshu, but she could not change her clothes yet. She stopped Zhong Ran who was walking hastily. “Where’s Master?”

Seeing Shen Qianshu with blood all over her, he jumped. “Master is back. He’s upstairs but he has not woken up yet. Miss Shen, were you hurt?”

Shen Qianshu went in hurriedly. Confused, Zhong Ran looked at Tong Hua.

Tong Hua said, “All is well!”

We don’t know which unlucky bastard this blood belongs to.

Shen Qianshu went upstairs. Ye Ling had been cleaned simply, and he had changed his outfit. He was on a drip, and there was a blanket over him. Shen Qianshu saw a chain. Ye Ling’s two legs were chained, and the other end of the chain was nailed into the wall. Her eyes shrunk. The chain was piercing to her eyes. She suddenly remembered that there was a wound on Ye Ling’s leg. There was a shallow wound in his leg, and the skin around it was paler than other parts. It was in an area that people would not usually notice. She noticed it when they were being intimate once. She did not think of it much then, but now she knew how there was a wound there.

She calmed herself down. Luckily, he has returned. That’s all that matters.

“Master was shot in the chest. One of his ribs on his chest had been broken. His right arm is fractured, and he needs to rest for a long time.” Zhong Ran explained. No one noticed when Zhong Ran had entered. He was standing behind Shen Qianshu, and he reported Ye Ling’s conditions to her.

“Is he in a life-threatening situation?”

“No!” Zhong Ran said. “The bullet in his chest has been removed, and the wound has been treated. The fracture… He would need rest.”

Shen Qianshu shut her eyes lightly. The blood on her hand had dried up, but it smelled metallic. There was blood all over her fingernails, and there were traces of blood on her body too. She did not dare to touch Ye Ling, and she forced herself to calm down.

“Miss Shen, why don’t you wash up first?”

Shen Qianshu shut her eyes and nodded. After washing up, she felt so much more comfortable. She had been looking after Ye Ling until nighttime, but Ye Ling did not seem like he was going to wake up anytime soon. Shen Qianshu was feeling a little confused.

She wanted him to wake up, yet she was fearful.

Master, will you wake up, or will ‘he?’

She was not sure if the person who would wake up would actually be the Master she knew.

Jack came at night. The diamond had been kept by the police as evidence. Jack was looking into it, and he promised that they would definitely get it back. However, Tong Hua was not feeling good about it. Was this Golden City trying to take over all of their inheritance?

“We have cleared the venue. Over twenty people died while another twenty odd people are heavily injured. Some of the people managed to escape in the chaos, but their injuries are not light either.”

“What about Jonah?” Shen Qianshu asked.

“He’s in the ICU. He can’t escape!”

“Wow, he’s not dead. What a pity.” Shen Qianshu wished she could stab Jonah a billion times.

Jack felt the same. “Has Ye Ling woken up yet?”

“Nope!”

Jack had wanted to explain that this plan had been thought out for a really long time, but he did not. Ye Ling had not exposed it himself, so he had no reason to tell Shen Qianshu. This was a failed plan, but the good thing was that Ye Ling had ordered him to do certain things. They were lucky that he was still alive and that Shen Qianshu was safe and sound. Jack sent his men guarding outside in case the people who had escaped wanted to do something to Ye Ling. Now, there was still another important thing that he had to take care of.

“Miss Shen, Ye Ling’s matters cannot be kept a secret. Over twenty people had died, and there was even the diamond at the auction. We need a spokesperson from the Ye Family to address this issue. It is best to send someone that Ye Ling trusts. We need an official spokesperson from the Ye Family to speak on behalf of him for Golden City.”
