Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself



The man sneered. "Why should I believe you? We've already captured you. As long as we send you over, we'll be able to get a generous reward!"

"Mr. Gu can't save you. I advise you to be sensible and leave with us. Otherwise…"

Before he could finish speaking, the man felt an intense pain in his thigh. Qiao Xi had taken out a sharp dagger from somewhere and stabbed it fiercely into the man's leg.

While the few of them were stunned, Qiao Xi leaped into the river and tried her best to swim to the other side.

"Hurry up and chase after her!"

Qiao Xi used all her strength to swim forward. She did not know if there was an end in front of her. She only knew that she could not fall into their hands no matter what.

"Catch her!"

"Why don't we just kill her according to Miss He's wishes?!"

"But that gentleman wants him alive!"

"If we let her escape, we won't be able to get any money from either side!"

At this moment, Qiao Xi no longer had the ability to think. She could only rely on her instincts to swim. However, she was already injured, so how could she escape from a few strong men?

Sensing that they were getting closer and closer, Qiao Xi gradually lost her strength—

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, she heard a few gunshots. The surrounding men's bodies stiffened as they wailed in pain. Qiao Xi could smell the smell of blood spreading in the water. They had all been shot!

Everyone was dealt with. Qiao Xi slowly raised her eyes to look at the shore. A tall man was standing there, and his appearance could not be seen clearly. Then, a few black figures were about to jump down from the shore, but the man stopped them. He jumped into the water and swam to her side.

Qiao Xi's mind gradually became heavy as she closed her eyes. She felt the man hug her waist and swim toward the shore. Soon, she lost consciousness.

…

In the capital.

After Ji Tian hung up, her heart thumped violently. She hurriedly deleted the call records.

At this moment, the door was pushed open and a group of people walked in. Ji Tian was so scared that she quickly threw away the cell phone. The screen instantly shattered. Her face was pale, and she looked flustered.

Everyone walked in one after another and saw the phone on the floor. Ji Tian hurriedly walked forward and said nervously, "I'm sorry, Ah Zheng. I didn't mean to break your phone. I'll compensate you."

Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and looked at his phone with a cold gaze.

Just now, Doctor Jiang looked for him to talk about the divine physician's illness. For some reason, his heart suddenly hurt and he had a bad feeling. He immediately returned to the ward and realized that his cell phone had been smashed.

Gu Zheng looked up at Ji Tian. Her eyes were red, and she suddenly coughed violently. Her face was pale, and her legs went weak. She subconsciously grabbed Gu Zheng's hand and fell onto him.

"Miss Ji has fainted. Put her on the bed first." The nurse hurriedly supported her.

Although Ji Tian was unconscious, one of her hands was tightly grabbing Gu Zheng's sleeve. The doctor did not dare to pull her forcefully and could only look at Gu Zheng awkwardly. "Mr. Gu, can you help? Miss Ji must have fainted because she was too tired these past few days. She should wake up soon."

Gu Zheng's expression was cold as he pried Ji Tian's hand away.

"Mr. Gu, this…"

Gu Zheng ignored the doctor and turned to leave the ward.

He held the broken phone as the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger. An inexplicable pain swept through his body.

Xi Xi…

He shook his head, and his vision gradually blurred. Song Shijing quickly supported him. Doctor Jiang had just finished diagnosing Ji Tian. Seeing that Gu Zheng was a little weak, he checked his pulse. His expression changed drastically. "The poison is acting up!"

Song Shijing was also surprised. "Ever since Young Madam detoxified the president's poison, it's been a long time since the poison acted up. Why did it suddenly flare up?"

Doctor Jiang hurriedly said, "Quickly bring him to my ward. We can't let anyone know that his poison has acted up. Tell the public that his old injuries have relapsed and he needs to recuperate."

Song Shijing nodded quickly. Many eyes were on the president now. If he fell into a coma, it would give those people a chance.

Before Song Shijing could come back to his senses, he received a call from Uncle Sheng. "Assistant Song, Young Madam is missing!"

At this moment, Xia Jingan was sitting in the living room and looking at the time. It was already 40 minutes past the agreed time, but Qiao Xi was still not here. He suddenly felt a little uneasy and hurriedly called Qiao Xi.

It was raining heavily outside, so it was normal for her to be late. However, he could not get through to her phone!

Since they had agreed to meet today, how could he not be able to contact her?

Xia Jingan's heart suddenly trembled, and his body spasmed uncontrollably. He seemed to have telepathy and felt that something must have happened to Qiao Xi!
