369: C369 Did She Die?

C369 Did She Die?

We talked for a while longer, and then we hung up on each other's instructions.

Hai Xiaomin did not move for a long time before she picked up the phone again and called Tang Xuening to tell her that she was safe.

After hanging up Tang Xuening's phone, the light in the room was already dim. A servant knocked on the door and came in to deliver dinner to Hai Xiaomin.

She got up from the sofa and thought that after calling for so long, her phone should be out of battery. She prepared to charge it but found that the battery was still very sufficient.

Could it be that the battery was full from the start?

Thinking about how Ling Yao had been paying attention to charging her phone at all times, so that every call on the phone was not missed, a stone was thrown into Hai Xiaomin's heart, creating layers of ripples.

"Miss Hai, you can come over and eat." The maid put the bowl and spoon away and reminded.

"Put it away first. I will eat it later." Hai Xiaomin came back to her senses and waved at the maid. She silently said in her heart, the last time, once will do. She finally could not hold it in and dialed Ling Yao's number again.

There was a long wait at the other end of the line. Just as Hai Xiaomin's heart gradually sank and she was about to give up, the phone was picked up!

"Hello, Ling Yao!" The voice in her throat sounded almost reflexively, as if she could not wait.

... "young madem, it's me." An old voice that spoke fluent English came from the phone.

Hai Xiaomin was stunned. "Uncle Jiu?" Ling Yao had already returned to the small castle.

Uncle Jiu said, "Yes, it is not convenient for young master to answer the phone right now. If you have something urgent, I will tell him right away."

"No, no, no." Hai Xiaomin said, "No need. Let him be busy. I have nothing important to do. We will talk after he is done with his work."

Hai Xiaomin did not know if he was really busy or if he deliberately used an excuse to avoid her call. But when she thought of that inexplicable feeling of fear and knew that Ling Yao had already returned to the small castle, she quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

Uncle Jiu hung up the phone, his old face was full of misery, and his eyes were already filled with tears. He lowered his head and said to Ling Yao who was lying on the operating table, "Young master, do as you instructed. Young madem did not suspect anything."

"Did she hang up?" On the operating table, Ling Yao's face was pale. Bean-sized beads of sweat hung on his forehead. Half of his face was covered in blood. He looked a little absent-minded, but he refused the medical staff to add an oxygen mask to him.

"He died! He died! Young master, please accept the surgery! " Tears streamed down Uncle Jiu's face as he begged.

When he found out that Ling Yao was in a car accident, he immediately went to the hospital where Ling Yao was sent to. At that time, Ling Yao had lost his consciousness and was about to receive the surgery when Hai Xiaomin called him on the operating table. Ling Yao forced himself to stay conscious and called him in.

"Don't let her know first..." Ling Yao's words made Uncle Jiu's heart ache. If he did not see Ling Yao answer the phone, Ling Yao would not insist on not using his knife.

Until he heard Uncle Jiu say that he had hung up. The bloody hand that was holding Uncle Jiu's clothes gradually loosened and said weakly, "That's good, don't forget to block the news..."

Ling Yao's voice became softer and softer, and his consciousness lost consciousness. The medical staff hurriedly put on the oxygen mask for him and seized every second to save him.

...

In the evening, in another part of Rose Villa, Old Nazhi and Laecia sat across from each other, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

"Laecia, I will see you again this time. The feeling you gave me is different from before." Old Nazhi smiled and looked at Laecia, who was opposite him. She was young and beautiful, but she was practical. She also had the background of the Lance family. No matter how one looked at it, she was still young and pretty. Of course... It would be even more perfect if she could fall in love with his grandson.

"Oh?" Laecia lightly took a sip of tea and rolled her eyes strangely. She smiled and said, "How is it different?"

"In the past, when you came to my place, you were always not confident enough. There was guilt in your eyes, but now that they have disappeared, what made you change your mind?" Old Nazhi asked.

Previously, in order to convince Laecia, he had given her enough bait to make her agree to consider his grandson. Moreover, she had personally gone to H City to carry out her so-called 'test' with Qiao Nan.

In the end, when he found out that Qiao and Hai Xiaomin had gotten married and received another blow, Old Nazhi tried his best to console and persuade her to give it another try. However, he still had the mentality of retreating, which gave Old Nazhi a headache. He even let her go.

But this time, the changes on Laecia's body made him feel some comfort.

Laecia's azure eyes were brimming with energy and her red lips rose as she gave a deep smile. "The road that Grandpa Nazhi paved for me has already reached this point. If I still do not know how to climb up, then I will be letting down your painstaking efforts."2

Indeed, she had received education and self-respect over the years for interrupting other people's engagement. Her pride and self-esteem were all being tortured, especially when she found out that Hai Xiaomin was pregnant. This kind of rejection rose to the highest level.

The turn of events happened in the next few minutes. She knew that the child was not Ling Yao's.

Laecia saw an opportunity that she had not seen before. It was as if she had carefully prepared it for her. Since Hai Xiaomin was the one who cheated first and their relationship had already broken, she could not be blamed.

Since ancient times, it had always been this way for those who were capable to obtain it!

In addition, with Mr. Nazhi's powerful backing, what she wanted to do was much simpler. As long as she could think of a way to get Qiao's heart back or get his people first, Laecia still had confidence in herself on this point.

Since Ling Yao did not have a good impression of her at the moment, Laecia repeatedly used her social network to create a chance encounter. She did not believe that she would not be able to find a chance if she worked so hard and put in so much effort!

With this belief, she did not complain to Old Nazhi again when she saw him this time. Old Nazhi had heard about her attending various occasions with Ling Yao before, and he had seen her taking the initiative to attack.

The two of them chatted happily. Suddenly, a message came in from Laecia's phone.

"Sorry." She said to Old Nazhi and lowered her head to look at her phone. The moment she saw the content of the message, her beautiful face lost color. "How could it be..."

Old Nazhi looked at her in confusion, but he thought that it might be a private matter of the other party, so he did not ask. Laecia looked up in surprise. "Qiao got into a car accident!"

Old Nazhi said, "!!"

Before he got the news, Laecia got the news first. It was not that Laecia's information network was faster than his, but that she specially spent money to monitor Ling Yao's whereabouts in hopes of meeting him by chance. She did not expect to unexpectedly intercept such a bad news this time!

Seeing Laecia's flustered look, Old Nazhi's eyes flashed with a touch of jealousy. But now was not the time to think about this. "Laecia, don't panic. Which hospital is he in? I will go with you!"

"Okay, okay." Laecia forced herself to calm down. After tidying up a few times, the two of them went out together.

This matter was not disclosed to Hai Xiaomin.
