"Take a left," Yu Feng said.
Xiao Yun turned the steering wheel precisely. Even though the car was speeding at nearly 300 km/h, her turn was smooth and perfect.
"How much longer until we reach City T?" Xiao Yun asked.
"About ten minutes."
This was already the fastest they could go. Usually, it would take an hour, but now they had managed to cut it down to just forty minutes. However, neither of them had a free hand to make a call, so they had no chance to inform Su Yuze.
The cars behind them kept firing. Damn it! They seemed to have an endless supply of ammunition!
If this went on, both Xiao Yun and Yu Feng would soon feel carsick.
"Hold on," Yu Feng said. His seat cushion was soaked, indicating that he had lost a significant amount of blood.
A bullet hit the rear tire of the car. The car let out a shrill screech and veered uncontrollably towards the green belt, sparking a bit.
Xiao Yun immediately turned the steering wheel sharply to stabilize the car. Yu Feng's body swayed. It was obvious that due to excessive blood loss, his mind might not be as clear as usual.
"Ugh..." Yu Feng groaned.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yun glanced at him quickly. "Is your wound hurting?"
Yu Feng shook his head slightly. "No... I'm about to throw up."
"...Sorry, hold it in!" Xiao Yun said. They were almost there.
The cars behind them kept chasing. Soon, they saw the highway toll station of City T. Without hesitation, they drove straight through the barrier.
"We'll be much safer once we're in City T," Yu Feng said.
"Yeah..." Yu Feng shook his head. He was really feeling unwell.
As soon as they entered the city, the traffic increased. "Yu Feng, slow down. Do you want to cause an accident?" Xiao Yun said.
"Yeah... I know," Yu Feng said, slightly easing his foot off the accelerator. However, the sweat on his forehead was increasing, and his lips had turned pale.
Xiao Yun drove the car to the outside of the hospital. She looked behind to make sure the two cars hadn't followed. Then she quickly unbuckled Yu Feng's seat belt. "Come on, hurry!"
Yu Feng had been shot in the left arm and was bleeding heavily. Supported by Xiao Yun, blood dripped all the way. Xiao Yun shouted as she walked, "Doctor! Doctor!"
Startled by Yu Feng's condition, a doctor wearing glasses quickly rushed over. "What's going on? Why is there so much blood?"
"He was shot," Xiao Yun said.
"Shot?" The doctor was surprised. "Quick, take him to the operating room!"
Seeing Yu Feng finally being pushed into the operating room, Xiao Yun finally let out a sigh of relief. Looking at her arm, it was stained with blood. Without even looking at her hand, she took out her phone and called Su Yuze. "Hello, is that Boss Su? Hurry to the hospital. Yu Feng is in trouble."
"I'll be right there."
...
Upon receiving the call, Su Yuze immediately left the company without hesitation. He drove his sports car at full speed towards the hospital.
"Xiao Yun," Su Yuze immediately saw Xiao Yun sitting on the chair outside the operating room, waiting silently. He walked over, looked at the red light above the operating room, and then at the blood on Xiao Yun's arm. "What happened?"
"He was shot in the arm," Xiao Yun said. "On our way back, we were followed on the highway. The other side had guns. We weren't paying attention, and he was..."
She felt guilty. Her duty was to protect him, but Yu Feng had been injured. When she protected Rou Rou before, she had never let anything happen to her!
"Boss Su, I'm willing to accept the punishment," Xiao Yun said. This was equivalent to a failed mission, and she was willing to take the blame.
"It's not your fault," Su Yuze said. "Did you notice anything?"
"I wrote down their license plate numbers."
"Good."
With the license plate numbers, it would be easier to find the mastermind behind this! Su Yuze sent a message to Su Rou, saying that he would be home late, and then stayed outside the operating room with Xiao Yun, waiting.
Two hours passed, and the red light in the operating room finally went out. Even though they knew Yu Feng had only been shot in the arm and not in any vital parts, Su Yuze and Xiao Yun still couldn't help but worry. They were afraid that something might go wrong and his arm would be disabled.
The doctor took off his mask and said, "Are you the patient's family... Oh, Mr. Su!"
The doctor recognized Su Yuze and was about to shake hands with him, but Su Yuze ignored him coldly. "How is he?"
"The bullet in the patient's arm has been removed. He's fine. He just needs to rest and recover," the doctor said.
"There won't be any impact on his future life, right?"
"No."
"Okay, Xiao Yun, go and handle the hospitalization procedures with the doctor."
"Yes."
Su Yuze followed the hospital bed to the VIP ward. Yu Feng was the only one in the room. Used to Yu Feng's usual cocky and carefree attitude, it was really a bit strange to see him so weak.
Yu Feng, how on earth did he provoke the other side? Yu Feng was not without influence in the underworld. How could he be assassinated?
"Ah..." Yu Feng on the hospital bed suddenly groaned. Probably the anesthesia had worn off. He frowned and opened his eyes. "It hurts..."
"You're awake," Su Yuze said.
"Hey, Young Master Yu..." Yu Feng looked at Su Yuze blankly. In his memory, he was still drifting on the highway. When he saw Su Yuze, he thought he was dreaming.
"It's me," Su Yuze said, seeing his confused look. "You're in the hospital now. You've just had surgery. The bullet has been removed. You're okay."
Yu Feng took in Su Yuze's words and then looked at the ceiling around him. The pure white world, combined with the pungent smell of disinfectant, confirmed that this was indeed a hospital.
He let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you."
"Thank me?" Su Yuze raised his eyebrows. Did that bullet make him stupid? "Was the deal not successful?" Su Yuze asked tentatively.
"No, it was very successful," Yu Feng said.
"Then it wasn't them who did this."
"Yeah, it wasn't them," Yu Feng said. He had been confused at the time but didn't know who it was. "By the way, where is she? Where's Xiao Yun?" Why didn't he see her? Could something have happened to her?
"She's fine. She's handling the hospitalization procedures for you," Su Yuze said to comfort him. Xiao Yun was much more skilled than Yu Feng. How could something happen to her?
"That's good," Yu Feng said, relieved. This incident was after all caused by him. If something had happened to Xiao Yun because of this, he would really feel bad.
