"When you said your knee hurt, were you lying to me?"
Although it was a question, Pei Yan's tone was firm.
A hint of guilt flashed in Jiang Heshu's eyes. Pei Yan was right. She was indeed lying to him at that time, in order to make Pei Yan stop using that shameful posture.
But Jiang Heshu would never admit this.
She immediately shook her head, "I didn't."
"I just said I didn't feel pain because I was afraid that you would feel sorry for me. In fact, I feel pain." Jiang Heshu said with a sincere expression.
Pei Yan didn't believe this, but he didn't pursue it. He lowered his eyes and continued to apply medicine to her.
After thinking for a few seconds, Jiang Heshu pretended to be in pain and hummed a few times.
After all, acting requires a complete performance.
But after a while, Pei Yan raised his eyes to look at her.
"If you want it, just keep barking. If you don't want it, don't mess with me."
When he said this, the man's voice was mixed with a hint of hoarseness, but it also had a profound meaning.
Jiang Heshu's cheeks instantly turned red. She bit her lips and did not dare to make a sound again.
The room became quiet, and Pei Yan moved gently and carefully applied the ointment to her.
To prevent the ointment from getting on your pants, let them dry for a while.
Jiang Heshu leaned on the sofa, her legs hanging naturally. Her legs were beautiful, thin and straight, and her skin was fair and smooth.
Pei Yan looked at it, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he quickly looked away.
"Are there any wounds on your body?"
Jiang Heshu shook his head slightly, "No, he just pushed me."
When he fell, Jiang Heshu supported the ground with his hands and knocked his knees, but the rest was fine.
Mentioning the person who pushed Jiang Heshu, Pei Yan's face was stern and he sat down next to Jiang Heshu.
"Those people are weaklings. Li Wen has already asked. It was Jiang Xiaxia who asked them to trouble you."
Jiang Heshu was not surprised when she heard this name, because she was also guessing Jiang Xiaxia.
Gu Jing just saw him in City C last night, and he took a plane to City A to find Jiang Xiaxia in the early morning.
Maybe Gu Jing would take the initiative to tell Jiang Xiaxia the news about her being in C city even if Jiang Xiaxia didn't ask.
Thinking of Jiang Xiaxia, Jiang Heshu reached for the bag next to him and took out a tissue wrapped in several layers.
Jiang Heshu opened it and found a few short hairs inside.
"This is Mumu's hair. Can you find a way to get the Su family's hair and do a paternity test?"
Pei Yan had already seen the message Jiang Heshu sent him and knew Jiang Heshu's guess. He took the hair and said, "Okay."
Jiang Heshu couldn't help but warn her again: "You must keep these hair away."
There were no scissors or clippers at that time, so the hair was pulled off directly.
Jiang Heshu couldn't move his hands. Instead, he pulled off his newly grown hair without any effort.
Mumu's once black hair was pulled off by Jiang Xiaxia and the others, and she had endured so many days of bullying. The pain was not worth mentioning to her.
Thinking about it, Jiang Heshu said: "Pei Yan, can you help move Mumu to another place? She was beaten to the point where there is no good place. If she continues to stay, she will definitely..."
He will die.
Thinking of the wounds on Mumu's body, Jiang Heshu felt extremely heavy.
She had never realized before that Jiang Xiaxia could be so heartbroken and crazy.
Moreover, if his guess is true, Jiang Xiaxia took Mumu's identity, took away Mumu's good life, and even hired someone to kill Mumu.
Jiang Xiaxia is simply cruel and inhumane.
At the same time, Mumu's incident also reminded Jiang Heshu.
She must be extremely vigilant towards Jiang Xiaxia in the future. If she accidentally falls into Jiang Xiaxia's hands, her end may be even worse than Mumu's.
Pei Yan saw what Jiang Heshu was thinking. He hugged Jiang Heshu into his arms and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you."
"Jiang Xiaxia, her good days are numbered."
When he said this, Pei Yan's eyes were dark and cold.
He added: "Before boarding the plane, I called someone to ask about the situation. Several prisoners who lived in the same room as Mu Mu behaved badly and were of a serious nature. They need to be sent to the West District of City C for reform through labor."
Although Pei Yan said it was because of the bad nature of those people, Jiang Heshu knew that if Pei Yan hadn't intervened, no one would have cared about this matter.
Perhaps these people will be punished only after they beat Mumu to death.
Jiang Heshu breathed a sigh of relief and hugged the man's strong waist, "Thank you."
Whether it was letting Mumu leave or letting those prisoners leave, as long as they could be separated.
However, before they could be separated, something happened to Mumu.
At ten o'clock that night, Jiang Heshu had just taken a shower and was getting ready to rest when he received a call from the prison.
Hearing what the other party said, Jiang Heshu sat up suddenly, "What?"
"Which hospital is it at? Can I go there and have a look? Okay, I'll go there right away..."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Heshu immediately grabbed Pei Yan's clothes and said quickly: "Those people severely injured Mumu, and Mumu was sent to the emergency room."
"Pei Yan, I want to go over and see her."
Pei Yan nodded, "I'll take you there. You change clothes and wear thicker clothes. Don't worry, she will be fine."
Jiang Heshu was so distraught that he didn't even bother to change clothes. He found a coat and put it on, then pulled Pei Yan out and walked out.
It was late at night and there were not many cars on the road. The two of them arrived at the hospital quickly.
Mumu was still in the operating room for first aid, and Jiang Heshu learned about the situation from the prison guard who sent Mumu to the hospital.
After dinner today, the prison guard informed Mumu's six inmates that because they repeatedly beat Mumu and ignored multiple warnings, the nature was serious and they would be transferred to the Western District Prison early tomorrow morning.
Just two hours later, while patrolling, I heard a call for help. When the prison guards broke in, Mumu had been beaten to a bloody pulp by the six men.
When this happened, the prison guards rushed Mumu to the hospital. They contacted Mumu's family members according to the contact information Mumu left.
But no one was willing to come over. Finally, they thought that Mumu had met Jiang Heshu in the morning, so they contacted Jiang Heshu.
Hearing this, Jiang Heshu clenched his fingers tightly.
It was her lack of consideration. When she heard the news, she was only happy to separate Mumu and the six people, but she forgot to ask Pei Yan to tell them to separate them as soon as possible to avoid...
But now it was too late to say anything. Jiang Heshu looked in the direction of the operating room and prayed silently in his heart.
After three hours of rescue, Mumu was sent to the intensive care unit for observation.
It was already early in the morning, and the hospital was particularly deserted.
Pei Yan saw the worry in Jiang Heshu's eyes, thought for a few seconds, and found a nurse to open a VIP suite.
The main ward was empty for Mumu, and the two of them spent the night together in the nursing room.
——
Mumu's condition was very serious. He was observed in the intensive care unit for two days before his life was out of danger and he was transferred to a general ward.
The moment he saw her, Jiang Heshu's eyes turned red.
Mumu reluctantly pulled her lips and joked: "Does it look like a mummy?"
Her whole body was wrapped in white gauze, including her head, with only a pair of eyes, nose, and mouth exposed.
In other words, Mumu's body was covered with wounds, and there was no good spot.
Jiang Heshu didn't dare to touch her, "I'm sorry, I didn't..."
Before she finished speaking, Mumu interrupted: "You didn't feel sorry for me. On the contrary, you helped me a lot."
"and……"
Mumu paused for a few seconds and looked at the door.
Through the glass window on the door, she could vaguely see the figure of the prison guard.
Mumu's lips twitched slightly, revealing a somewhat strange smile.
