Chapter Eighty-Seven: Good Girl, Daddy Didn't Spoil You For Nothing

  Chu Jingyan lay on the sofa with his upper body exposed, his eyes somewhat dazed, but the pain in his lower abdomen kept stimulating his brain from time to time, keeping him refreshed.

  The doctor who rushed over in a hurry was suturing the wound. This unlicensed doctor, however, was the best underground doctor in all of Jiangnan.

  The black doctor's name was Li Chengfan, and he also knew Chu Jingyan, with whom he had a bit of a relationship.

  "It's fortunate that you held the knife with your hand, so it didn't damage any internal organs. The flesh wound isn't serious, just be careful to rest and I'll have someone take you back to the clinic later to get some medicine, then it will be fine."

  Li Chengfan casually picked up a bottle of mineral water from the table, rinsed his bloody hands, and said to Chu Jingyan: "Lie still and don't move. I haven't treated your hand injury yet. If you get tetanus, how will my subordinates take it out on me?"

  After rejecting Li Chengfan's offer to give himself morphine, Chu Jingyan put on a clean shirt again with the help of Pei Chengjun. The wound was still throbbing in pain, but Chu Jingyan didn't listen to the doctor's warning and sat up anyway.

  It's not the time for Xin Yu to shine yet.

  Those people have been taken out of the store. At this time tomorrow, Chu Jingyan will definitely know all about it. Now he doesn't have the energy to think about these things.

  After all, being stabbed in the belly is something that no one has the vitality to avenge immediately.

  Choo Kyung looked weakly at Lee Ji-hyun and Park Ji-yeon who were still standing around.

  There weren't many people in the room, Chu Jingyan's voice was very soft but everyone heard it clearly. He didn't look at Li Zhi Xian at first, instead he smiled at Pu Qi and said: "Don't you know that minors are not allowed to enter this kind of place? Who brought you here?"

  Park Ji-yeon hid behind a long-haired girl and didn't dare speak.

  Heaven and earth are just, our classmate Zhiyan has been a quiet and gentle girl since childhood, although not excellent in both moral character and academic performance, but also a chivalrous person who would shout out when seeing injustice on the road. No, I mean a chivalrous woman.

  But no matter how tomboy, parents gave such a good-looking face, although Park Ji-yeon has been learning taekwondo since childhood, she is still a lovely and beautiful young girl in her youth.

  But whenever there's a beautiful girl, can't see the white knife going in and the red knife coming out this bloody scene?

  Lee Ji-hyun is now pretending to be calm, but Chu Jingyan has already seen that several people in this row have been trembling with fear.

  Park Ji-yeon looked at a girl next to her with a guilty conscience after hearing Chu Jingyan's question, but still very righteous and didn't betray her partner, she carefully asked: "Mr. Chu, are you okay?"

  Is it okay? Of course not, try being stabbed with a knife yourself?

  "Of course it's not good." Chu Jingyan said.

  Park Ji-yeon swallowed her saliva and whispered, "If you think your condition is not good, sleep well and eat a few good meals, I think you'll recover quickly."

  "Not a bad idea." Chu Jingyan nodded in agreement.

  "Anyway, let's put that aside. I'm afraid Miss Li had a fright today, which is my fault for not being a good host. If Director Li blames me for it, I'll personally go to his place to apologize. I just hope Miss Li isn't too shaken by the experience."

  Li Zhi Xian hastily shook his head.

  "I'm fine, Director Chu, you should take care of your injury and rest well, it's best not to talk too much."

  "Bae Sung-joon, have someone send these ladies back." Chu Jingyan waved his hand.

  Tonight's incident has blown up completely, let's not mention that Chu Jingyan locked the door and prevented customers from leaving. As long as one person made a call to the police, the alarm would immediately sound on the streets. But this store has been able to operate for so long in this prime location, there must be its own reasons.

  Not only does Chu Jingyan need this shop's profits, but many people also need it.

  But now Chu Jingyan almost lost his life, and those people didn't dare to say anything directly. They only asked that before losing control, Chu Jingyan could resolve these issues.

  Chu Jingyan's phone started ringing non-stop.

  "Mr. Li, don't blame yourself, it's my own carelessness. Don't worry, I've already had someone open the shop door and business is operating normally. Alright, let's have dinner together sometime."

  "Secretary Zhang, hello. The matter has been resolved. I'll be returning to headquarters in a few days. Has the chairman returned to China? If so, please help me schedule an appointment with the vice-chairman. Alright, thank you for taking care of everything."

  Hang up the phone, Chu Jingyan gestured to the people around him to help him up. Li Chengfan's skills were top-notch, but after all, they couldn't compare to the security of a regular hospital. Now he had to go to the hospital; otherwise, just the pain from not having anesthesia would be enough to keep Chu Jingyan awake all night.

  My footsteps were a bit unsteady, but fortunately there were five or six people in front of and behind me to support me, so I didn't have to worry about falling.

  At the corner, I met another group of people.

  This private room is usually reserved for those who must wear sunglasses to have fun, that is, celebrities. The leader saw Chu Jingyan and first bowed to greet him, but when he saw Chu Jingyan's pale face, he didn't know what to say.

  Choo Ja-hyun said she knew the person in front of her as a business manager at CJ Entertainment and had some exchanges during work.

  "Director Chu, what's this?"

  "There's nothing," said Chu Jingyan, "It's just that today some things spoiled everyone's interest, it was my dereliction of duty."

  "Nothing, nothing, Director Chu is being too serious."

  Chu Jing spoke perfunctorily, but his eyes scanned the crowd and landed on someone who caught his interest.

  The person who joked with Son Ye-jin but was taken seriously afterwards got her number after Son Ye-jin had put in a lot of effort.

  That newcomer who is highly regarded by many insiders.

  Han Hyo-joo

  Choo Jin-woo and Han Hyo-joo had met once before a long time ago when they accompanied Lee Ji-hyun to the TV station, but they hadn't spoken since then. Now, as their eyes met in the space, Han Hyo-joo slightly bowed her head to greet him.

  This group of people continued to move forward, and Chu Jingyan also retreated in the opposite direction with the support of the people around him.

  "Miss Han Hyo-joo."

  Chu Jingyuan shouted loudly.

  Han Hyo-joo stopped in her tracks, turned around and looked at Cho Jing-yan with some confusion. Cho Jing-yan waved his hand to let go of the hands that were supporting him, covered his wound and walked up to Han Hyo-joo.

  Han Xiaoju was unclear, but still bowed and then asked with some doubt: "What's the matter, Director Chu?"

  "There's nothing special," Chu Jingyan shook his head and said, "I just suddenly remembered something about you, so I was planning to find a suitable time to invite Miss Han Hyo-joo to have dinner together."

  "What's going on?" Han Hyo-joo asked.

  "No, it's personal."

  "What kind of private matter?"

  "Private matters are things that cannot be let a third person know." Chu Jingyan said.

  Choo Jin-woo has already seen Han Hyo-joo's agent desperately signaling her to decline.

  Han Xiaoju didn't look at the agent's gaze, but instead looked at Chu Jingyan with a hint of a smile. She was very tall, her height of 1.72 meters making her stand out among girls. Even so, without wearing high heels, she still had to lift her head to make eye contact with Chu Jingyan.

  "May I know why?"

  Chu Jing's mouth twitched and he smiled: "Can't Miss Han figure it out during dinner?"

  Han Hyo-joo didn't say anything.

  The broker's face had turned quite unsightly, but he didn't dare show anything in front of Chu Jingyan, so he squeezed out of the crowd and smiled: "Director Chu, Xiaozhu is on a tight schedule recently, I'll take your good intentions for her, let's eat...".

  Chu Jingyu didn't make sense, but he still smiled at Han Xiaoju.

  Han Hyo-joo thought for a moment and said, "I'm free next Wednesday evening."

  Chu Jing said without going to see Han Hyo-joo's agent, "I'll have everything ready and wait for Miss Han's arrival."

  After finishing speaking, his subordinates once again supported Chu Jingyan and slowly walked out.

  Han Hyo-joo suddenly remembered something and shouted: "If I'm not mistaken, Director Chu, you still don't know how to contact me."

  Chu Jingyun turned his head and looked at Han Xiaoju, saying: "Who said I didn't know?"

  Han Hyo-joo was taken aback, and her eyes revealed a profound meaning, after which she fell silent.

  Why did he suddenly do this, Chu Jingyan, who was hurt, felt that he and the woman who came to her aunt were angry for no reason, which was the same reason.

  Everyone likes doing something for no reason at all.

  .........

  ........

  When he woke up again, it was already daytime. Chu Jingyan felt that he couldn't have only slept for a short four or five hours. The snow-white ceiling and the faint scent of soda water in the air were all telling him that he was on a hospital bed.

  Turning her head to look at the clock on the wall, Chu Jingyan only then realized that she had slept for two whole days.

  This sleep is really comfortable.

  At least the wound on my lower abdomen no longer hurts, and after re-suturing and dressing, the wound has improved significantly.

  But what followed was a strong feeling of hunger and thirst, Chu Jingyan wanted to lift his hand to take the water cup on the bedside table, but found that his left hand was completely numb.

  Mom's, did your own hands become useless?

  Startled, Chu Jingyan looked down and found Zheng Xiuyan sleeping soundly on the edge of the bed, her little face still with a light layer of makeup, resting her head on his left hand.

  Chu Jingyan carefully pulled out his left hand, shook it vigorously, and the numbness only returned to his hand, at least he still had a sense of feeling.

  Jung Jaehyun has a bad temper when waking up, so Choo Kyungyeon usually doesn't mess with her when she's sleeping. After all, who likes dealing with a crazy woman?

  Struggling to get up, she poured herself a glass of water. After gulping it down, her stomach growled even louder. Chu Jingyan rubbed her slightly stiff face and looked down at Zheng Xiuyan.

  It's been a while since I've seen this girl.

  Her body, which was originally not plump, seemed to have lost even more weight. Looking at the strange clothes on her body, she wondered if they were from the performance venue earlier. She shook her head and stopped thinking about it, and Chu Jingyan lay down, quietly waiting for Zheng Xiuyan to wake up.

  Sleeping on her stomach was ultimately uncomfortable, and before long, Zheng Xiuyan opened her eyes.

  She rubbed her eyes and stretched, only to find that Chu Jingyan was smiling at her, the originally quiet beauty suddenly transformed into a fierce little lion.

  "You! Why are you in the hospital again, and with such a severe injury? The doctor said a lot of things I didn't understand, although I don't know what they mean, but I can tell it's very serious. Tell me, why did you get hurt?"

  Chu Jingyan blinked and dryly said: "That's it, just a little careless, and you'll get hurt."

  "Have you told Uncle and Auntie?" Chu Jingyan asked immediately after some thought.

  "Not yet." Zheng Xiuyan glared at Chu Jingyan.

  "Thank you."

  "Cut."

  "How did you know I was admitted to the hospital?" Chu Jingyan asked curiously.

  Jung Joo-yeon said, "I called you and your subordinate answered. Your subordinate is so rude. I hadn't even asked who he was yet, but he asked me who I was."

  "What did you say?"

  "I said I was his sister, he said you don't have a sister. I got angry and told him, didn't you know that in Korea, the term 'sister' is usually a loving nickname between couples?"

  "You're really not very impressive, I said you were my girlfriend and your subordinates didn't believe me, they whispered that you've never had a woman before, tsk tsk, Chu Jingyan, you still don't have any prestige."

  "What's next?"

  "And then I came."

  Chu Jingyu stared blankly at Zheng Xiuyan, holding a cup of water, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Good daughter, Dad didn't raise you in vain."
