Chapter 242: Mrs. Mu may have some difficulty getting pregnant in the future.
Almost the moment he slammed on the brakes, the front passenger door opened, and he was left without a word.Mu Jin Huan strode to the car, and sure enough, there was no one inside. His dark eyes suddenly tightened. Without much thought, he walked straight towards the group of hoodlums.
With each step, the darkness and gloom in his eyes grew thicker, and a strong aura of hostility emanated from his entire body.
The leader of the delinquents recognized Mu Jin Huan. After all, he was a man with a criminal past, and now one of the most powerful in Qing City. There was some trepidation in his heart.
However, his rebellious and unruly nature made his words harsh, "If President Mu doesn’t hurry up and fish her out, the next time you see your wife, it might only be by unzipping a body bag."
As he spoke, he pointed with the stick in his hand towards the direction under the bridge.
When Huo Yihan parked the car and rushed over, he only heard a splash—the sound of someone falling into water. A discarded coat lay at his feet, nearby a girl in a torn school uniform with messy hair sobbing quietly, and the unconscious Sheng Yichen.
His eyes narrowed, and he strode closer, checking Sheng Yichen’s breathing, his voice cold, "Shut up, keep crying, and he’ll really die!"
The girl, intimidated by his presence, stifled her sobs, her voice still trembling, "I... I called 120."
"This isn’t the city center, it’s a remote area at five in the morning. By the time the ambulance arrives, he’ll have already stopped breathing," Huo Yihan wasn’t in the mood to waste time with this pampered young lady who knew nothing, "The car is over there, lift his legs."
Like waking from a dream, the girl immediately stood up. Her clothes were soaked with cold river water, and her body felt numb with cold, yet she didn’t care at all and forcefully lifted Sheng Yichen’s legs.
Winter clothes are heavy as it is, and soaked with water, their weight more than doubled.
"Wait," the girl suddenly remembered something, stopping in her tracks, her pupils contracting, anxious and uneasy, "The sister who saved him might not have come up yet. I only focused on my friend at the time and didn’t notice. Could she be in trouble?"
Huo Yihan sneered coldly, expressionless, You only think of this now?
"Someone has already gone down to fish them out. If you don’t hurry, two lives will be on your head."
The girl’s upbringing didn’t allow her to lose her temper with the only person who could save Sheng Yichen, even if she knew he was scaring her with cold words.
When Huo Yihan placed Sheng Yichen in the back seat of the car, he glanced at those delinquents watching the show from the bridge, and asked, "Did you remember all their faces?"
The girl nodded, gritting her teeth, "I’ll recognize them even if they turn to ashes!"
Huo Yihan closed the car door, his face cold and indifferent, his hands on the steering wheel were pale white.
It was only when he saw Mu Jin Huan carrying the unconscious Nan Wan up from the riverbank that he started the car.
The sky was still dark, the road now dominated by two speeding cars racing one after the other, red lights seemingly mere decorations to them.
Traffic police chased them for over ten minutes but couldn’t stop them.
Duty is duty, no matter how tired or exhausted, they must enforce the law, pursuing relentlessly.
But halfway through, they received a call from their superior, "Tell the brothers not to bother, pretend they didn’t see it."
Traffic police: "..."
That’s not what they taught us during training.
It’s still necessary to bow to power.
...
Hospital.
The assistant brought clean clothes, and after changing, Huo Yihan walked outside the hospital room and asked, "What’s the situation?"
Mu Jin Huan had acted faster than him, and apart from the semi-dry short hair, the rest of him was perfectly neat in his suit.
His dark eyes had regained calm, yet there seemed to be an undercurrent unseen by others hiding within that calmness.
In a soft voice, "It’s fine. You can leave now."
Huo Yihan had a big deal to handle today, and knowing Nan Wan was okay, he didn’t ask further questions.
After taking a couple of steps, he turned back, a playful grin on his lips, "You might as well stop taking medicine; it’s best if you catch a fever or fall ill. That way, only then might the stone-hearted Doctor Nan feel sorry for you for a second."
The assistant following him twitched at the corners of his mouth.
He looked up at the sky, oh, no sky, might as well look at the ground.
President Huo’s words have been too sharp lately, not even Miss Xu can handle him, while President Mu has clearly gotten used to it, not changing expression in the slightest.
After Huo Yihan entered the elevator, the doctor standing to the side hesitated to speak, "Mr. Mu, there’s one more thing..."
Mu Jin Huan paused his movement of pushing the door open and looked back at the doctor, who was hesitating to speak, waiting for her to continue.
The doctor cleared her throat, "It’s just that... Mrs. Mu has always had a cold constitution, and this time she got really chilled. Although her body no longer has major issues, because her health is not robust, staying in cold water for so long might... might make it difficult for her to conceive in the future."
