Can't Take My Eyes Off You

82

Just when Jiang Yao was about to faint from pain, she was shocked to see the cute little thing leaping

incredibly and scratching Zhao Zhuangzong's face with its claws. They were razor-sharp and the

excruciating pain made Zhao Zhuangzong cry and curse out loud.

"Get over here right now and help me get this animal off me! F*ck! What the hell is this thing?" It was

not until Zhao Zhuangzong was being chased around by that thing that the men rushed over to catch

the white figure for him.

Jiang Yao was stunned for a few seconds and could not respond to the situation. Suddenly, she saw

the white figure turn its head towards her and speak to her in disdain, "Stupid woman, don't just stand

there, run for help! Do you want me to die from exhaustion?"

Only then could Jiang Yao reacts and she ran as fast as her legs could carry her while screaming for

help.

Fortunately, there was a family with kids walking up the hill and they were about to have dinner at a

relative's house. They were shocked when they saw Jiang Yao and gathered around her immediately.

Jiang Yao saw that they were kind-hearted people and she spoke anxiously, "Robbers, four men, they

want to beat me to death, help me, I'm living with the Lu's, please help me notify them!"

After she finished, Jiang Yao felt weak and sat on the ground in exhaustion. She held her back and

gasped for air. In order to protect her front and head, her back was the most injured place. After she

asked for help, she no longer had the energy to say even one more word. It was even more painful

when she panted for breath.

"I will go downhill and get some help. You guys stay here to protect this young lady," the eldest sister

spoke while running away. Her powerful cry for help got the attention of more than ten men in the blink

of an eye.

On Zhao Zhuangzong's side, the men were scared when they saw the crowd and fled into the forest

immediately.

Jiang Yao knew nothing about what happened afterward. As she heard more and more people were

concerned about her, she blacked out. Before she fainted, her heartfelt warm as she was grateful for

the many kind-hearted people willing to lend her their help, and also for the little thing that could talk.

By the time Jiang Yao woke up again, she was already at the hospital. She heard Lu Xingzhi's parents

and her parents' voices beside her.

"Yao Yao's awake." Jiang Yao's mother was the first person to notice that she was awake and her voice

sounded hoarse. Clearly, she had been crying for quite some time and her eyes were still red.

"Dad...Mom..." Jiang Yao moved a little and called them.

"Lie down and don't move, you have a lot of injuries on your back." Mrs. Lu pressed her back onto the © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

bed. "Luckily the wounds were not fatal. The doctor said that you were smart to let them hit your back

and protect your front, or else the wounds could have been more serious."

Mrs. Lu felt unpleasant in her heart. Her tears trickled down as she said that. "Zhao Zhuangzong, that

b*stard! Seems like we went too easy on him!"

"Mom...don't cry...it's okay." Jiang Yao curved up the corners of her lips and smiled. "Look, I'm all good,

right? You just said that my wounds aren't that serious. I just need some rest. Oh yeah, where are the

people who helped me? I need to thank them greatly. If it wasn't for them, I would be screwed."

Before Mrs. Lu was able to say something, Lu Xiaoxiao, who barged into the room, bawled out of a

sudden. "Sis, I'm so sorry! If only I had accompanied you back home instead of dining out with my

friends! Sis, I'm sorry, so sorry, if I didn't drag you out for a movie, you would not have come out of the

house! Sis, I made a call to my brother's troop. He said that he'll rush here immediately."

"You told Xingzhi already?" Jiang Yao felt helpless once she heard that Lu Xiaoxiao told Lu Xingzhi

everything. Lu Xingzhi had just returned to his troop and he needed to rush back here again. Would his

job be affected? Judging by his personality, it was safe to assume that he was going to blow up once

he knew that she was injured.
