Lu Xiao was not sent to the hospital because she had too many wounds and it would be dangerous to move her. In addition to the scars from the whip, Xiao also had several fractures and her entire back was in a state of disrepair.
Lin Qing didn't know how she endured watching this scene. If it weren't for her, Lu Xiao wouldn't have been beaten like this...
She clenched her fists and her whole body was shaking as if she would explode at any moment.
"The injury is too serious. I'll take care of it first. The ambulance will be here soon and we can only do further treatment after we send him to the hospital." The doctor was sweating profusely. He had been practicing medicine for so many years, but he had rarely seen patients being beaten like this.
Who could be so cruel
"Treatment..." Lin Qing's eyes suddenly widened, and she grabbed the doctor's sleeve tightly, "Will these wounds leave scars in the future? Will her body be affected in any way?"
The doctor was startled and adjusted the frame of his glasses: "Some wounds can be healed, but some are too deep, especially the back. Look at what it has become. It will definitely leave scars..." Before he finished speaking, two cold eyes were cast at him. The doctor shuddered and added hurriedly, "But now that medicine is so advanced, it will only be very shallow..."
Mu Li's face darkened, and the doctor simply didn't dare to speak anymore.
Lin Qing smiled hollowly, her clear eyes becoming misty. She had caught a cold from the breeze at night, and now she looked dazed: "How is this possible? Her skin has a strong healing ability. She broke her arm before and there was no trace the next day. How could there be a scar? Are you lying to me!"
Lin Qing held on to the doctor's sleeve tightly, and the doctor didn't dare to shake it off, with more and more sweat on his forehead.
Mu Li pulled Lin Qing's hand away and turned her face: "Calm down, send her to the hospital first."
"Calm down? How can I calm down?" Lin Qing's eyes were red and tears were in her eyes. "Should I calm down even though she was beaten like this, or should I calm down because I know that she was injured because of me?"
If she hadn't lost the ring, Lu Xiao wouldn't have been implicated.
If she hadn't been so stubborn in clinging to Mu Li, she wouldn't have lost the ring.
She was wrong from that moment on. It was she who made Lu Xiao what he is now, step by step. Every wound on Lu Xiao's body was also a wound on her body, and the pain of blood and flesh sticking together...
She was almost suffocated by the pain.
Even Mu Li felt pain when he touched her...
"Lin Qing!"
She was in pain, and so was he. He could see her pain, but she couldn't see his.
"Let go! Don't touch me!" Lin Qing's eyes turned red and she pushed Mu Li away. She felt dizzy and her body swayed several times.
Mu Li didn't care about her resistance at this moment. He put his arms around her legs and lifted her up horizontally.
"Don't touch me... Let me go!" Lin Qing screamed heartbreakingly and punched Mu Li on the shoulder again and again.
Her tears slid down, and each one fell on the man's heart, almost corroding and burning his heart.
Lin Qing was making a big fuss, beating Mu Li non-stop. She had never done this before, but she didn't expect that every punch would pierce his heart. Mu Li just endured it, his thin lips tightly pursed, his eyes dim, and he refused to let go no matter how hard Lin Qing hit him.
"It's all your fault... It's all you... Mu Li, she became like this because of you!" Lin Qing's voice was slightly hoarse, and every word pierced the man's heart, but he did not explain, and just endured it silently from beginning to end.
He knew that Lin Qing was blaming herself and that she was venting her feelings just to divert the pain. If this could really make her feel better, he would accept it.
The doctor secretly broke into a sweat upon seeing this. He had only heard about it before, but today when he saw with his own eyes how Mu Li let Lin Qing do what he wanted, he secretly sighed that the rumors were true.
After a while, Lin Qing still had no intention of stopping. The doctor took two steps forward and stood beside Mu Li, lowering his voice: "Mr. Mu, why don't you let Madam calm down first?"
He said it in a subtle way, but Mu Li understood the meaning as soon as he heard it. He gave the doctor a cold glance, which frightened him so much that he took a few steps back: "If you say one more word, I'll give you an injection first."
Dare to use tranquilizers on his woman
The doctor didn't dare to say anything else. Seeing that the ambulance was taking a long time to arrive, he felt depressed and walked straight to the wooden bed to check Lu Xiao's condition again.
The woman on the wooden bed was so badly injured that the doctor didn't dare to say anything just now. I'm afraid that even if she wakes up in the future, the huge physical and mental pressure she endures will completely destroy her will.
Not to mention her, even a man would go crazy if he was beaten like this.
The doctor took out the tools and checked again. He had just focused all his attention on the whip wounds. At this moment, Lu Xiao's neck moved slightly, revealing a rare neck without scars, which attracted the doctor's attention.
The doctor's hand paused after just a quick glance.
"This..." The doctor's brows frowned visibly. Mu Li held Lin Qing diagonally from behind. Although he did not see the doctor's expression, he could feel the doctor's stiff back.
"What's the problem?" Mu Li's voice was low but compelling.
The doctor carefully lifted Lu Xiao's jaw and checked the abnormality on his neck. Although he was not 100% sure...
"Speak!" The doctor was slow to speak, and Mu Li's face darkened.
"She must have been fed some kind of potion before, and her throat was injured. If she is treated in time, she may be cured, but..." The doctor subconsciously glanced at Lin Qing and his voice dropped suddenly, "I heard that she was found two hours ago. Even if she was sent to the hospital at that time, it was too late..."
He didn't finish the rest of the words. Looking at his current condition, let alone a cure, it would be good enough if he could be saved.
Lin Qing trembled in Mu Li's arms, and her raised fist stopped in mid-air. She turned her head to look for the doctor, her eyes bloodshot: "What did you just say?"
The doctor didn't dare to repeat himself. Before Mu Li could look at him coldly, he shut up obediently.
He should have pretended to be sick today to avoid this. It's really...
Mu Li knew that Lin Qing was in a very unstable mood at the moment, so he hugged her tighter: "He is just guessing. We will know the exact situation only after we send her to the hospital."
The implication is that this old man's medical skills are not very good, so don't believe him.
The doctor's mouth twitched when he heard this. In all these years of practicing medicine, no one had ever doubted his medical skills.
Lin Qing bit her lips, almost breaking them. She used all her strength to push Mu Li away and almost fell from his arms.
"Let me go!" Lin Qing shouted and raised his hand. His sharp nails scratched Mu Li's cheek, leaving a long bloody mark.
Seeing the blood, Lin Qing was stunned, and all he could see were Lu Xiao's wounds.
Mu Li didn't even frown as he carefully put Lin Qing on the ground. As soon as Lin Qing's feet touched the ground, he pushed him away.
"Lu Xiao!" She knew Lu Xiao couldn't hear her, but she couldn't help but call her name again and again.
Maybe if I shouted too much, Lu Xiao would hear it.
Lu Xiao was covered with a half-thick coat. Lin Qing walked over and saw the abnormal throat. A large area was red, but it was not a wound left by a beating. It was obviously a mark of burns after something was poured into it.
Lin Qing stood beside the wooden bed, leaning forward slightly, her eyes fell on Lu Xiao's pale face again. This was the first time she dared to look closely, and every wound was shocking.
Finally, her eyes fixed on Lu Xiao's lips, where there were stains of some liquid.
She couldn't imagine how desperate Lu Xiao must have felt at that moment, being forced to drink an unknown liquid that burned all the way down his throat...
Although she didn't understand, she had a vague idea of what would happen after the liquid was swallowed. Perhaps Lu Xiao would never be able to speak again. Perhaps this scar would never be removed, erased, or linger for the rest of her life.
Lu Xiao's eyes were tightly closed. She might dream about this moment, or recall over and over again how she was given the potion and how she endured the pain of being whipped.
Lin Qing's throat was dry and her tears had dried up. The moment her fingertips touched Lu Xiao's cheek, she quickly withdrew her fingertips as if they were burned.
It was she who destroyed Lu Xiao's future with her own hands.
Lu Xiao likes to talk the most. When he sees someone gossiping about Lin Qing behind her back, he will step in front of them. Lu Xiao said that there is nothing he can do about it because he is just like that. He will feel uncomfortable if he doesn't say a few words for a while.
At that time, Lin Qing smiled and asked what to do if you couldn’t speak in the future.
Lu Xiao rolled his eyes and said, “Even if I die, there is no way I won’t speak.”
Lin Qing trembled all over. She almost used up all her strength, turned around and looked at the doctor steadily: "If she can't speak anymore, I will make you the same as her!"
The doctor was so frightened that he almost knelt down and begged Lin Qing for mercy.
A faint smile spread across the corners of Lin Qing's lips, hollow, pale, and bloodless: "Even if you use your life in exchange, you can't get her back in good shape."
Lu Xiao like that will never be able to speak again, roll his eyes and laugh out loud again...
Who is the culprit behind all this
There seems to be a vague answer in my heart.
The voice of the perpetrator continued to ring out, echoing in the equally cold and silent warehouse.
"Why don't you ask your man what's going on!" The perpetrator's wild laughter was like a sharp sword, cutting Lin Qing's heart open one by one.
Her man...
What was her man doing? He loaded his gun and shot the perpetrator dead.
That person really deserves to die, but the time for him to die is not yet certain!
Lin Qing felt that her chest was covered in blood. Her body swayed and she was about to fall onto the wooden bed.
Mu Li grabbed her waist from behind and held her in his arms: "Lin Qing, I know what you are thinking. You hate me and think that I did all this, but I would never hurt you like this even if I die. Do you understand?"
Every word Mu Li said was filled with anger and despair. Even if Lin Qing believed him, things would never be the same as before. This incident would always be a wound between them, and no matter how it was repaired, a crack would always be left.
Lin Qing's eyelashes cast a shadow, and she raised her pale face: "If I believe you, Lu Xiao can return to the way she was before?"
Mu Li tightened his arms around her, and the pain in his eyes increased.
It was still dark outside the window, as if it would never end.
A shrill sound pierced the silent air. As the ambulance stopped outside the warehouse, medical staff carried a stretcher down from the back door of the car.
Several people walked into the warehouse quickly. The doctor who was with them took a quick look at Lu Xiao and ordered people to carefully carry him to the stretcher. The whole process was gloomy, and no one said a word. The doctor who arrived earlier followed the medical staff to get on the ambulance.
