For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene grew exceptionally tense. All eyes were fixed on the dagger in the hand of Ye Lengan, with everyone fearing they might witness a scene of blood splattering any moment.
“Don’t worry.” As if completely impervious to the suffocating tension, Ye
Lengan smiled at Ye Min’er and said, “l don’t intend to take your life.”
This was a factual statement, as Ye Min’er, despite launching an attack, didn’t exude any murderous intent. Hence, while the intention was to harm, there was no desire to take her life.
Upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s assurance, before Ye Min’er could exhale in relief, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her arm.
Ye Leng’an had swiftly turned the dagger around, redirecting it from her throat to her right shoulder in an instant, only to pull it out again.
In a blink, fresh blood gushed from Ye Min’er’s arm, creating a visually alarming scene. No one had anticipated that, under the unresponsive gaze of everyone, Ye Leng’an would injure Ye Min’er directly, and the extent of the injury seemed substantial.
“Ah!” A cry of pain escaped Ye Min’er, who quickly reached for her arm, attempting to staunch the flow of blood. However, the bleeding showed no signs of abating.
At this moment, Ye Wanwan realized she could move. Hastening to Ye Min’er’s side, she retrieved a pill from her storage bag and promptly placed it in Ye Min’er’s mouth. “Are you okay?”
Ye Lengan had already retracted her dagger, which, despite piercing Ye Min’er, bore no traces of blood. This paradoxical sight only added to the unsettling atmosphere.
A deft twist of Ye Leng’an’s hand transformed the dagger back into the bracelet on her wrist. Yet, the onlookers no longer perceived it as an ordinary accessory. Its ominous nature left everyone uneasy, questioning how someone dared to wear such a bracelet.
Despite taking the medicine, Ye Min’er’s wounds showed no signs of clotting, not even a hint of a slowdown.
“How can this be!”
Witnessing this, Ye Wanwan was incredulous. She had administered the best hemostatic medicine, expecting the bleeding to stop within seconds. Yet, there was no sign of the wound ceasing to bleed, not even slowing down
“Wanwan, what do 1 do?” Ye Min’er’s voice trembled, tinged with a cry. “The wound keeps bleeding. Will I bleed to death?”
Ye Wanwan, too, felt somewhat at a loss. This was an unprecedented situation for her.
“We need to go back now. Father and the elders will surely know what to do.”
Remaining there would only result in Ye Min’er bleeding to death. The only recourse was to seek help by returning home. Moreover, the two individuals before them were beyond their capacity to handle. Staying further would only jeopardize their own safety.
Even if seeking justice was the goal, involving the family was imperative. The two young girls couldn’t navigate this situation alone.
Supporting Ye Min’er, Ye Wanwan quickly departed from the restaurant.
The few remaining individuals exchanged uncertain glances, unsure of what course of action to take. Their usual modus operandi was to follow Ye Wanwan’s lead. Now that she had left, there was no reason for them to stay. Consequently, they hurriedly departed.
Soon, only Huangfu Ruiling, Ye Lengan, the store manager, and one waiter lingered.
If not for the bloodstain on the floor, one might have doubted whether this incident had occurred at all.
“Lead the way,” Huangfu Ruiling instructed, a furrow appearing on his brow as he regarded the still-rooted waiter.
“Please follow me.” The waiter snapped out of her daze, now casting a gaze at Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan mixed with respect and trepidation.
Despite the recent incident, it had not dampened the spirits of Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan. They continued to converse and laugh, following the waiter towards the private room as if nothing had happened..
