Who wants to be a male model after being reborn? I want to be a male god.
Chapter 415 was stabbed again.
Chapter 415 was stabbed again.
Xu Wen looked at the three people in front of him warily, his nerves were on edge.
Since his abdominal wound healed, he has been a regular at the gym.
He quickly picked up the fighting skills he had learned from his colleagues before his rebirth, and even spent money to hire a coach to enhance them.
For no other reason than fearing that something like what happened to Xia Ning will happen again.
I can't say how powerful they are, but at least they can buy him some time to escape.
The three people in front of them had already formed a pincer movement and were closing in on the two of them.
Xu Wen planned to quickly attack one of them, create an opening, and then run away to avoid getting entangled with them.
Putting aside whether the few simple moves he learned are enough to deal with the person in front of him, what if the other party has a weapon?
He understood a principle well: winning a fight was unrealistic; escaping was the most important thing.
If it were just Xu Wen alone, he would be at least 80% confident that he could escape.
but.
Seeing that the group was getting closer, Xu Wen tightly protected Gu Xingruo behind him.
Adding another person would significantly reduce the chances of escape.
"What's the point of an apology? You've dirtied my new shoes!" One of them pointed to his spotless sneakers, clearly looking for trouble.
Gu Xingruo now realizes that this is not an ordinary conflict; these people are here specifically to target them.
She quietly reached for the pepper spray in her bag while observing whether there were any security personnel around.
After Gu Hong spoke to her last night, she found some self-defense items, and she never expected that she would actually be able to use them today.
"I'll buy you a new pair," Xu Wen said calmly, deliberately raising his voice.
He was trying to buy some time, hoping that the amusement park's security personnel would notice their situation.
If the amusement park finds out that there is a dispute here, they will send someone over very quickly.
"Cleaning fee? What cleaning fee do I need? I want a million, can you afford that?" the man sneered.
Before Xu Wen could react, he suddenly drew a dagger from his waist: "I'll take your life!"
Everything happened so fast.
The man swung his knife at Xu Wen, while the other two men flanked him from both sides.
The three of them gave them no time to react or delay, and attacked swiftly as soon as they got close.
Xu Wen's nerves were on edge, and his reaction was equally quick. He sidestepped the first knife and kicked the nearest person in the knee at the same time, showing no mercy.
"Run!" Xu Wen shouted to Gu Xingruo, while he himself went to meet the other two.
Of course he can run away by himself.
But he couldn't leave Gu Xingruo here, so he could only try to stall the two people in front of him.
He'll find another chance to run away after she runs away.
This is a public place; if anyone notices them, someone will call the police very soon.
Gu Xingruo did not run away; she was not without fighting ability.
She took out pepper spray and pressed it into one of the attackers' eyes.
The man screamed and covered his face, clearly not expecting a young girl to have such a thing in her hand, and panicked for a moment.
Just as Gu Xingruo finished dealing with this side, she saw the third person had already circled around behind Xu Wen, his dagger gleaming coldly.
"Xu Wen! Behind you!"
All of this happened too fast; Xu Wen didn't have time to turn around.
He could only manage to dodge backward, but the dagger still pierced his abdomen.
He grunted, but seized the opportunity to grab the man's wrist and slammed him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.
The man who had just been kicked in the knee by Xu Wen lunged forward again.
Gu Xingruo quickly picked up the spray and sprayed it on his face.
While the other person was flailing his arms wildly, she kicked him down and then stomped on his head several times.
"Xu Wen!" Gu Xingruo rushed to his side and saw the blood spreading rapidly across his abdomen, tears welling up in her eyes.
I don't know who called the police, but I could faintly hear police sirens in the distance.
Of the three attackers, the two who were still able to move fled in panic.
Xu Wen leaned against the wall and slowly slid down to the ground, his face as pale as paper.
"It's nothing. It's not deep. I just dodged it." He said with difficulty, but his hand was pressed tightly against the wound, and blood kept gushing out from between his fingers.
Perhaps because his adrenaline had started working, he didn't feel any pain.
I only felt a cool sensation when the wind blew over the wound.
Xu Wen looked down at his wound and gave a bitter smile.
His stomach was the most injured part of his body; he had only just recovered from the injury when he was wounded again.
Did these people plan this together?
Gu Xingruo took off her coat and pressed it against his wound, her voice trembling: "Hang in there, I'll call 120 right now. Xu Wen, watch over me, don't fall asleep!"
Xu Wen's eyes were already starting to glaze over, but she still forced a smile: "What you wanted to tell me today is this, right? Someone wants to hurt you."
So that's why Gu Xingruo never came back.
He thought she had forgotten about him.
If only I had learned a few more tricks from my colleagues back then, I wouldn't be in such a passive position today.
Gu Xingruo's tears dripped onto his face: "Don't speak, please, save your energy."
She had already dialed 120 and quickly told them where they were.
Xu Wen opened his mouth again, but found that he couldn't say anything.
Although he was injured, he wasn't too worried.
He had experience with being stabbed.
This sounds like a hellish joke.
Xu Wen felt that he was probably fine and even had the energy to complain.
Unfortunately, my vision was already somewhat blurry.
The adrenaline has probably worn off.
Shortly after Gu Xingruo finished making the call, paramedics arrived and quickly lifted him onto a stretcher.
She got into the ambulance, holding Xu Wen's increasingly cold hand tightly the whole way, constantly calling his name.
The hospital corridor lights were a stark, blinding white.
After the red light came on during surgery, Gu Xingruo slumped onto a bench, her hands and clothes covered in Xu Wen's blood.
She mechanically took out her phone and found more than a dozen missed calls, all from her father.
“Hello, Dad,” her voice was very dry.
"Ruo Ruo! Where are you? Someone just reported an attack at the amusement park!" Gu Hong's voice was filled with terror.
“Xu Wen is in the hospital.” Her voice choked with emotion.
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone: "I'll send someone over right away, Ruoruo. Now do you understand why I let you leave?"
Gu Xingruo stared at the operating room door and suddenly understood many things: "Were those people here for me today?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a soft "hmm".
Gu Xingruo's nails dug deeply into her palms.
"Ruo Ruo, your staying will only make things worse. Xu Wen was able to take one hit today, but what about next time?" Gu Hong sighed.
The operating room door suddenly opened, and a doctor came out: "Where are the family members?"
Gu Xingruo hurriedly hung up the phone and went to greet him: "How is he?"
"The surgery was successful, but you lost too much blood and need to be observed for 48 hours. You were lucky; the scalpel tip almost damaged a vital organ." The doctor removed his mask.
Gu Xingruo's legs went weak, and she had to hold onto the wall to keep from falling.
After the doctor left, she slowly walked into the ward.
Xu Wen lay on the hospital bed, his face paler than the sheets, with various instruments connected to him, emitting regular "beep" sounds.
She had been through this situation before; everything was so familiar. Last time, Xu Wen was injured to protect Xia Ning, who wanted to commit suicide; this time, it was to protect her.
He always does.
Gu Xingruo gently grasped his hand, her vision blurred with tears.
At that moment, she finally made up her mind.
Father was right.
Her presence will only bring more danger to Xu Wen.
He survived today by sheer luck, but what about next time?
Gu Xingruo took out paper and pen from her bag and began to write a letter.
Tears kept falling onto the paper, blurring the writing, but she insisted on finishing it.
"Xu Wen, I'm leaving. Not because I'm afraid, but because I've finally realized that sometimes the best way to love someone is to leave," she said softly, even though she knew he couldn't hear her.
She leaned down and placed a final kiss on his pale lips, her tears wetting his face.
"When all this is over, if you're still willing to wait for me, I'll come back. If you've already chosen someone else by then, I'll still wish you well." Her voice was barely audible.
This year of happy life felt like a dream.
Now that she's awakened from her dream, it's time for her to leave.
Gu Xingruo knew that if even her father couldn't solve it, then no one in the world could.
Even the only solution Gu Hong could think of was to get her to leave as soon as possible.
She might never see the day she returns.
Gu Xingruo glanced at him one last time before turning and walking out of the ward.
At the end of the corridor, the bodyguards sent by the father had been waiting for a long time.
She didn't look back, because she knew that if she looked back even once more, she would lose the courage to leave.
Gu Xingruo got into the car, watched the hospital gradually disappear in the rearview mirror, wiped away her tears, and dialed a phone: "Dad, I'm going abroad now."
Xu Wen felt as if he had just had a nightmare.
Although he no longer remembers the content of the dream, he knows that he had a nightmare.
Once a person realizes that she is dreaming, she can no longer continue dreaming.
Xu Wen wanted to escape the nightmare, so he struggled to open his eyes.
He exerted a great deal of effort before his eyelids finally twitched.
When I opened my eyes, all I saw was a pure white ceiling.
This scene is all too familiar.
The first time Xia Ning knocked me out, all I saw when I opened my eyes was a ceiling.
After finally escaping, all I saw when I opened my eyes was a ceiling.
It's the same this time.
Xu Wen then recalled that he had been stabbed again while trying to save Gu Xingruo.
He finally regained full consciousness and could see everything around him clearly.
Xu Wen felt as if his throat was on fire and his body was about to fall apart.
He forced himself up and sat up in bed.
This seemed to aggravate his wound, causing him to grimace in pain.
"Hey? You're finally awake."
A woman's voice came from in front of Xu Wen.
He looked to his side and saw Yang Yiyao holding a book.
The girl was wearing very ordinary casual clothes today, and her eyes were full of surprise.
Xu Wen opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice, "Good morning."
"Morning? What morning? It's already afternoon." Yang Yiyao complained first, then instructed, "Don't move around. I'll go call the doctor for you."
The doctor and nurses arrived at the ward quickly.
They checked him over and confirmed that Xu Wen was mostly alright.
I lost a lot of blood before, so I need to rest recently.
The attacker was carrying a very professional dagger, used for murder.
It's nothing like Xia Ning's fruit knife from before.
Fortunately, Xu Wen instinctively dodged, avoiding a fatal blow; otherwise, the game would have had to be restarted immediately.
"You're just lucky to be alive. It's happened twice. Do you know what twice means? It means you've been stabbed twice." After the doctor left, Yang Yiyao kept nagging.
She sat in a chair, holding a fruit knife and peeling an apple.
Xu Wen ignored her nonsense and retorted, "Can you please stop peeling apples? I'm traumatized by fruit knives now, and I don't even eat apples anymore."
Yang Yiyao seemed not to hear her and continued peeling the apple: "That's how it's always portrayed in TV dramas. Now that you're sick and hospitalized, and everyone around you is peeling apples, don't you think something's missing?"
"Where is Ruoruo? Where did she go?" Xu Wen lay back on the bed and continued to stare at the ceiling.
"You mean Miss?" Yang Yiyao finally finished peeling the apple, put it in her mouth, and took a bite.
Xu Wen almost sat up in anger when she saw it: "Didn't you peel it for me to eat?"
"Didn't you say you didn't like it?" Yang Yiyao blinked her innocent eyes.
The two stared at each other for a few seconds before Xu Wen turned his head and said, "Get to the point, where did Ruoruo go?"
Yang Yiyao took another bite of her apple before replying slowly, "Where else can we go? Of course, we should run away as fast as we can. If someone around you wants to kill you, wouldn't you run?"
She put down the apple and recounted everything that had happened during Xu Wen's coma.
Xu Wen was unconscious for several dozen hours.
The police have arrested all three perpetrators, but they insist that the attack was caused by a verbal argument, so the investigation is still ongoing.
That same evening, Gu Xingruo boarded a plane and left, arranged by Gu Hong.
Before leaving, she called Yang Yiyao, explained various things, and then asked Yang Yiyao to take care of Xu Wen.
And keep it a secret, don't let anyone know that Xu Wen is injured.
Yang Yiyao was almost scared to death; she ran over without even preparing her clothes.
Xu Wen breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing that Gu Xingruo had gone abroad.
It seems that, just as he guessed, those people were indeed after the young lady, and leaving Linjiang now is the best choice for her.
Staying in Linjiang will only make things more dangerous.
"Do you know which country she went to?" Xu Wen continued to ask.
Yang Yiyao shook her head innocently: "She just said she was going to leave for a while, but she didn't say where she was going."
Xu Wen was speechless. He subconsciously reached around the bed, trying to find his phone.
Yang Yiyao handed him the phone from the drawer, saying, "Don't think about it. I've already called. Her phone has been switched off ever since that day."
After saying that, she seemed to remember something and continued, "But Gu Hong did come once. He asked me to tell you that you don't need to worry, Gu Xingruo is safe."
Xu Wen held his phone, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
Since Gu Hong said so, it means that Gu Xingruo is not in any danger and has landed safely. She is probably hiding in a safe place.
but.
Xu Wen knew how it would end.
It seems that Gu Hong messed things up in the country, because Gu Xingruo never came back.
He worked so hard for so long, but in the end, this is how it all turned out.
Yang Yiyao took out another envelope from the drawer.
"She left you a letter, take a look."
