Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Mr. Song, I’m in pain…
Qian Shiyi was sending signals to the medical team while helping Lu Zhaozhao up.
As for Old Master Song, no one dared to move him recklessly; they just placed him on a spacious platform to wait for the rescue.
Fortunately, the rescue team was not far away and soon arrived to treat Old Master Song promptly.
“How is he? Does he have any life-threatening conditions?” Lu Zhaozhao’s eyebrows were deeply furrowed, and she looked worriedly at Old Master Song lying on the ground.
In the last life, it was because he had been found too late that the accident happened. Even though the speed of the treatment had been the fastest this time, Lu Zhaozhao still feared that the outcome might not change.
After performing simple first aid on Old Master Song, the rescue team’s doctor explained to Lu Zhaozhao, “Madam, don’t worry. The old gentleman only fainted due to low blood sugar. Fortunately, he did not injure his head when he fell, so there is no life-threatening condition.”
Hearing this, Lu Zhaozhao breathed a sigh of relief, but then she immediately had other doubts.
Old Master Song’s blood sugar did indeed have problems, but he often exercised like this and was well aware of his physical condition; how could he suddenly faint due to low blood sugar?
Suddenly, as if remembering something, she recalled that Old Master Song had drunk a bottle of water just before.
She scanned the underbrush and quickly spotted the unfinished bottle of water.
She bent down, picked up the bottle, and directly stuffed it into her backpack. It seemed an investigation into whether this incident involving Old Master Song was an accident was indeed necessary.
What Lu Zhaozhao didn’t know was that, from afar behind the trees, a figure had watched everything, captured it on their phone, and then silently hid behind the trees again.
Meanwhile, Xiao Jinglan, who was having her nails done at a salon, soon received the photo.
Her brows furrowed, seeing Lu Zhaozhao’s face in the photo made her want to throw her phone.
Again, it was this Lu Zhaozhao!
Every time she appeared, she disrupted Xiao Jinglan’s plans!@@novelbin@@
Xiao Jinglan narrowed her eyes and sent the photo directly to Xiao Mo, then dialed his number.
The phone was quickly answered.
Xiao Jinglan’s voice transmitted anxiously, “Did you see the photo on the phone?”
They had been planning this scheme for a long time, taking advantage of Old Master Song’s habits and medical condition.
Normally, there aren’t many people coming to Beishan, and with some tricks they had used, if someone found Old Master Song, ordinary people wouldn’t be able to carry him down the mountain.
They would have to wait for the rescue team, and the time it took would be enough for Old Master Song to be beyond help.
Even if he was lucky to be saved, his brain might be damaged, allowing some of the Song Family’s powers to fall into her hands.
But she never expected… that Lu Zhaozhao would bring a medical team up the mountain!
Was she insane?
Xiao Mo, on the other end of the phone, seemed surprised that the plan had failed, and after taking the call, he was silent for a few seconds.
This made Xiao Jinglan even more anxious, “What do we do now? If the Old Master really starts an investigation, it might lead back to me…”
It would be a lie to say she wasn’t scared.
Xiao Mo frowned slightly, “Why panic? As long as the Old Master isn’t seriously injured, this matter won’t be delved into deeply.”
His tone carried a hint of displeasure, but he still patiently reassured, “Start preparing to take care of the Old Master now. You might even get back your previous authority.”
“But…” Clearly, Xiao Jinglan was still not entirely reassured.
Could this really not be traced back to her?
Xiao Mo could hear Xiao Jinglan’s hesitation; he comforted her, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle the follow-up, and it absolutely won’t lead back to you.”
Xiao Jinglan sighed with relief upon hearing this.
The two hung up the phone, and Xiao Mo enlarged the photo in his hand, his eyebrows lifting uncontrollably at the sight of Lu Zhaozhao’s beautiful profile.
Since returning from the charity event in Nanjing, he hadn’t had a chance to get close to Lu Zhaozhao.
Now, taking this opportunity, he could legitimately make contact with her…
By noon, Lu Zhaozhao had returned home.
As soon as she entered, she quietly explained to Qian Hong and then went upstairs to take a shower.
It was only when she undressed in the bathroom that she saw the distinct bruises on her back.
She had fallen and hit the steps when Mr. Song had bumped into her, and at that moment, she was only concerned about Mr. Song and completely forgot about her own injuries.
Now that everything else was handled, her back hurt so much she could barely straighten up.
Fortunately, after visiting the hospital and getting an X-ray, they confirmed the bones weren’t damaged, and she returned home with the ointment the doctor had prescribed.
When she had gone upstairs earlier, she had informed Qian Hong beforehand, asking her to help apply the ointment after she finished showering.
She thought it would be quick, but because her back really hurt, she spent a long time struggling in the bathroom before finally emerging weakly and collapsing directly onto the bed.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of the bedroom door opening.
With her head buried, she mumbled, “Aunt Qian, could you help me apply the ointment? It’s on the nightstand, and I’m in too much pain to move.”
…
Though the person who entered didn’t speak, Lu Zhaozhao could hear them moving toward the nightstand.
Shortly after, she felt the mattress sink slightly, and her sleep shirt was lifted.
“Hisss…”
The cool ointment touched her back, and Lu Zhaozhao sharply inhaled, her entire back tensing, which only caused more pain.
Burying her head, her small hands clutched the blanket tightly, as she didn’t forget to instruct, “Aunt Qian, just go ahead, I can bear it.”
Unexpectedly, however, the hands on her back were warm and soft, not as painful as she had anticipated.
Whether it was the medicine warming in her palm or not, her back suddenly felt less painful.
Lu Zhaozhao’s head tilted slightly, about to express her thanks, when she inadvertently met Song Sinian’s cold gaze.
It was over…
Mr. Song from her household knew.
To prevent him from finding out about her injury, she had gone to the hospital by herself and even enlisted Aunt Qian.
But she had never anticipated that he would come home early.
Lu Zhaozhao awkwardly tugged the corner of her mouth, “Mr. Song, why are you back?”
Song Sinian’s eyelids flickered, giving her a decidedly frosty look, “I just got off work.”
His tone was even colder than his expression.
Lu Zhaozhao knew Song Sinian must be angry, although his emotions were hard to read, but she could feel the sudden drop in the surrounding atmosphere.
She reached out her small hand to tug at his sleeve, cooing, “Mr. Song, I’m in pain…”
“You just said you could handle it directly, that you could bear it,” Song Sinian’s eyes shifted slightly, his tone remaining calm but with an undertone of indifference.
But only Lu Zhaozhao knew, the hand he rested on her back had become lighter, softer…
What do you think?
