112 Gunshot Wound
Lin Ci nodded, and took one last look at Lu Ning before leaving.
Huo Jinyan did not drive; instead, he let Chu Ting drive. He sat in the front passenger seat while Lin Ci sat in the back.
After providing her address, Chu Ting drove towards their destination. Lin Ci sat there for about five minutes before she could not bear it anymore.
“Teacher Huo, can I ask you what happened? Why are all of you hurt?”
She noticed the wound behind Huo Jinyan’s ear.
Chu Ting still had lingering concerns. “Miss Lin, don’t ask anymore.”
Lin Ci chewed her bottom lip indignantly. How could she not ask when her best friend looked like she was at death’s door?
She let out a long sigh. “Okay, then can you tell me what sort of injury it is?”
It couldn’t be a simple injury, or else it wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Huo Jinyan sat in the front passenger seat, his face downcast. When he spoke, his voice was still hoarse. “It’s a gunshot wound.”
“Gun…” Lin Ci repeated the word, stunned.
A gunshot wound?!
…
After sending Lin Ci home, Chu Ting looked at Huo Jinyan, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, and asked hesitantly, “President Huo, are we going home?”
Huo Jinyan did not say anything. He looked down at his hand, fished out a cigarette, and lit it. He put it to his lips, his expression inscrutable. He just looked elsewhere, in a daze. Chu Ting did not say anything else and silently drove towards his residence.

When Lu Ning woke up in the hospital, it was already midnight.
Her entire body was aching, and her back seared with pain. Lu Ning felt that even moving was torture.
However, her posture was so uncomfortable that she wanted to move around.
After trying to move for a long time, she could only move her fingers.
The noise woke Lu Qing up from the sofa. He trotted over and bent down to get a closer look at Lu Ning.
“You’re awake? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?”
Lu Ning was a little slow to react. She stared at Lu Qing for a long time before she responded.
“Up…”
Lu Qing quickly asked, “Do you want to get up?”
He reached out to hold her arm.
Then, he cautiously tried to help her up.
However, it was difficult for Lu Ning to get up in this position, not to mention that she was injured.
She moved her legs, wanting to bend them, but after trying to move for a long time she still could not bend them.
Lu Qing sensed it and immediately put her back down gently. “Wait a minute.”
Then, he helped her bend her legs slightly so that she could get up with support.
Lu Ning slowly moved with Lu Qing’s help.
She had only accidentally arched her back and immediately felt agonizing pain.
She grimaced and calmed herself down before she gradually got up, kneeling on the bed.
Perhaps it was because of the wound on her back, but Lu Ning remained in this position for a while before silently retracting her arm.
“Thanks.”
She became more awake, and moved her arm slightly. It hurt every time she moved, so all she could do was to move and sit down slowly.
There was only a warm yellow light in the ward. It was a little dark, and Lu Ning saw Lu Jingzhi sleeping on the sofa.
Lu Qing looked at her. “Are you thirsty?”
Lu Ning affirmed it softly; her mouth was indeed a little dry.
Lu Qing poured her a glass of water. “It’s warm.”
Lu Ning took it. “Thanks.”
For some strange reason, the two of them were getting along. Lu Ning did not think much of it, but Lu Qing seemed to be feeling a little awkward.
He had never interacted with Lu Ning like this before. It seemed that the two of them had always been at odds with each other and did not really talk to each other.
Lu Qing looked at her and opened his mouth. “You…”
However, he only had time for a single word before the ward door opened.
