Meeting you in autumn

Before long, the news of Li Yi framing Guan Yu spread throughout the class, causing a stir. Everyone was whispering among themselves. Zhang Han, after learning the truth, felt disgusted and felt very sorry for Guan Yu and the others.

So, during the break, she went up to Guan Yu and said softly and awkwardly, "Um... Guan Yu, I apologize for what I said to you earlier. I'm sorry."

Guan Yu was stunned for a moment, then realized what she meant and continued doing her homework, ignoring her.

Zhang Han wasn't annoyed. She had already apologized, so she could do whatever she wanted. Shen Jia, seeing her indifferent attitude, said with a look of disdain, "Oh dear, isn't this Li Yi's maid? What's wrong? Is your mistress gone and you're looking for a new one?"

Zhang Han glared at her, ignored her, and turned to leave.

"Tch, this is so absurd," Shen Jia said, looking at her retreating figure with a hint of exasperation.

However, the matter was not over yet. The Li family went bankrupt overnight, and the Zhang family was also facing a bankruptcy crisis...

The next day, Li Yi was exhausted, with obvious handprints on her face. She withdrew from school and was about to leave when she saw Guan Yu and others chatting and laughing in the distance.

She clenched her fists tightly, thinking ruthlessly, "Guan Yu, we'll see." With that, she walked out of the school with a face full of resentment and hatred.

Meanwhile, in City A, the Guan family...

Guan Yu lay on the bed, his face as pale as paper, covered in blood. The blood stained the white sheets beneath him, a shocking sight.

His eyes were closed, and his consciousness was gradually fading, while the doctor standing by the bed was doing his best to save him.

Suddenly, a dark figure burst into the ward like a whirlwind, exuding a chilling aura of ferocity. His expression was panicked and confused. When he saw Guan Yu covered in blood, he was instantly enraged, his face contorted with rage.

Then, his gaze shifted to the person standing there, and in a fit of rage, he forcefully pulled Lin Qi outside.

Without hesitation, he raised his fist and, filled with resentment and anger, slammed it hard into Lin Qi's cheek.

With a muffled thud, Lin Qi was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground.

A mouthful of blood gushed from his mouth, splattering onto the ground, demonstrating that the attacker's anger had reached its peak.

Lin Qi struggled to his feet and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.

His eyes were filled with guilt and self-reproach. His body trembled slightly. He lowered his head and said in a low, hoarse voice, "I'm sorry... If it weren't for Young Master's selfless act of taking that fatal bullet for me, I wouldn't have been injured. It's all my fault that Young Master was put in such a dangerous situation. I'm sorry."

Shen Chen waved his hand helplessly, then said slowly in a deep voice that was almost dripping with water, "I didn't drag you out to listen to your useless talk. Who did it?"

"The investigation is still ongoing..."

Upon hearing this answer, Shen Chen's brows furrowed involuntarily, his anxiety growing stronger. He then asked, "Are the brothers all alright this time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qi's expression instantly turned extremely sorrowful and painful. His lips trembled slightly, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Seeing Lin Qi's expression, Shen Chen felt a surge of anger. He glared at Lin Qi and shouted, "Speak!"

Startled by Shen Chen's shout, Lin Qi abruptly raised his head and stared directly into Shen Chen's eyes.

He gritted his teeth and forced out a few words: "Three brothers died, and seven more are injured..."

Before he could finish speaking, he could no longer contain his anger and slammed his fist against the wall beside him.

At the same time, Shen Chen let out an almost roaring howl: "Which damned bastard did this! I'll make sure he's dead!"

Just as everyone was immersed in an atmosphere of grief and indignation, a doctor in a white coat strode out of the room.

He cleared his throat and said to everyone, "Ayu has woken up. You can go in and visit him now."

This person was none other than Guan Yu's other good brother, Chen Xu, who was also Chen Feng's older brother.

Upon hearing his words, the two rushed into the house and immediately saw the thick gauze wrapped around his abdomen.

Seeing that his master was injured because of him, Lin Qi lowered his head and said with deep remorse, "Young Master, I am guilty, please punish me!"

"This matter has nothing to do with you; it's the enemy who's too cunning," Guan Yu said, his face as pale as paper and his breath weak, yet he still managed to speak.
