After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 216 - 217: Onto the Battlefield? [8]

"No, it was me who bumped into something!" he said offhandedly.

"Really?"

Luo Xiaoqian frowned, aware that people’s subconscious minds tend to protect themselves instinctively. In this kind of subconscious state, some horrifying experiences would automatically blur. She couldn’t remember the details of the previous day very clearly.

"Of course it’s true!" Leng Zimo gave her a reassuring smile.

Huangfu Ao stopped at the door, tactfully choosing not to enter, "The car is ready!"

"Let’s go, we’re heading back to Beijing!" Leng Zimo once again lifted her in a horizontal carry.

"Your arm?"

"Just a minor injury, it’s nothing!"

On the way down, he carried her to the back seat and rolled down the car window, "I’m off!"

"Hurry off!" Huangfu Ao stood on the steps, waved his hand, and the soldier sitting in the driver’s seat immediately started the car, driving out of the courtyard.

"I forgot to thank him!" Luo Xiaoqian whispered in his arms.

She had been overly anxious at the time, and seeing Huangfu Ao was what made her scream. Now, feeling somewhat calmer, she naturally guessed that the person who had come to her rescue yesterday must have been Huangfu Ao and his men.

"No need!" Leng Zimo stroked her head, "Get some sleep, I’ll wake you when we reach Beijing!"

...

...

The car delivered the two straight to Beijing General Hospital, where Shen Yizhou worked, and naturally arranged the best ward for Luo Xiaoqian.

Seeing both the man and woman injured, Shen Yizhou just burst out laughing.

"What have you two been doing, going to battle?"

Luo Xiaoqian smiled shyly from within Leng Zimo’s embrace, her mood lightening at the familiar place and seeing a familiar face.

Leng Zimo settled her onto the hospital bed, and soon a nurse came in with patient clothes.

"Alright, she’s in my hands now, go do what you need to do!" Shen Yizhou said, pulling Leng Zimo by the arm towards the door.

"I’ll come back later to see you, alright?" Leng Zimo stood still, not moving.

Luo Xiaoqian knew he was worried about her, and she lifted her face to give him a smile, "I’m fine, just go take care of your things!"

He still wasn’t at ease, "I’ll have someone send a phone over later. You can call me about anything, anytime!"

"Okay!" Luo Xiaoqian immediately agreed.

Leng Zimo finally let Shen Yizhou drag him out of the ward, but not without looking back at Luo Xiaoqian on the bed one last time, "I’ll come back very soon!"

"Enough already, you’re acting as if it’s a life-or-death farewell!" Shen Yizhou glanced at his arm, "Huangfu said you hurt your arm pretty badly, do you want me to check it for you?"

"I’m fine, just check her wounds and give her a full body examination," Leng Zimo said as he walked into the office, "Car keys!"

Shen Yizhou pulled out the car keys from a drawer and dangled them in front of him with a finger, "I am a model citizen, with no record of any legal or traffic violations, and besides, this car isn’t a Bugatti. Don’t drive it like it’s a plane!"

Clearly, Huangfu Ao had told him all about Leng Zimo’s heroic actions.

Three hundred kilometers in an hour, with a speed of over two hundred kilometers per hour, was almost as fast as the takeoff speed of a plane. Leng Zimo had indeed driven the car as if it were a plane the previous night.

It was only because his car had sufficient performance and combined with the man’s extreme driving skills. If it had been anyone else, there was a good chance they would have ended up dead on the road.

Leng Zimo couldn’t be bothered to talk more, took the keys, and walked away.
