After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 703: Chapter 707 News about Xu Pei [4]

Outside the intensive care unit, just stepping out of the elevator, they saw Leng Zirui not far away talking to several police officers in French.

”Thank you very much for your work. We’ll take it from here, and thanks again!” Leng Zirui politely shook hands with them, and the officers turned to leave.

”Where is the person?!” Tong Ya immediately asked Leng Zirui.

Leng Zirui’s gaze swept across the crowd, ”Come with me.”

Everyone followed him down the corridor until he stopped outside the window of the ICU room at the end of the hall, leaned against the wall to one side, and nodded toward the window.

Looking through the window, they could see Xu Pei lying on the hospital bed inside, her head and face tightly wrapped in gauze, her body pierced with various tubes.

After just one glance, Luo Xiaoqian turned around and buried her face in Leng Zimo’s embrace.

Tong Ya and Huangfu Ruo, with their hands pressed against the glass, began to cry on the spot; Qin Lan stepped forward to comfort Huangfu Ruo, while Shen Yizhou also moved forward, soothingly placing his hand on her shoulder as Tong Ya began to weep softly in his embrace.

Huangfu Ao’s face remained calm, but his eyes were also filled with somber emotions.

Although she had done such terrible things, seeing someone who had been fine suddenly turn into this state, how could anyone not be distressed?

”Are you sure it’s her?” Leng Zimo asked softly while holding Luo Xiaoqian.

”Her face is severely damaged, making recognition impossible. However, according to the traffic police who intercepted her, the car registration confirmed it was Xu Pei’s car. And I’ve already reviewed the surveillance footage from the area; it was indeed Xu Pei driving. The blood type is a complete match as well,” Leng Zirui answered from behind everyone.

No one else spoke. Though Leng Zirui often appeared cavalier, in terms of meticulous work, he was every bit as competent as Leng Zimo.

This person was unquestionably Xu Pei.

”Let’s go.”

Without another look at Xu Pei in the hospital room, Leng Zimo simply held Luo Xiaoqian by the waist and led her toward the elevator.

No one spoke a word.

”Zimo?” The only person who dared to speak was Luo Xiaoqian.

”You said it, just one look and then leave,” Leng Zimo’s voice was filled with suppressed emotion, ”I’ve already come to see her; now it’s time to go!”

Indeed, Xu Pei’s plight was pitiable, but what about Luo Xiaoqian?

Yes, she seemed all right now, but who knew the extent of the scars in her heart?

Just then, a doctor came out through the door.

Leng Zirui immediately went over to inquire in French about Xu Pei’s condition.

The doctor’s expression was grave; he replied to him in French and then turned to leave.

”How is she?” Luo Xiaoqian, who didn’t understand French, asked worriedly.

Leng Zirui let out a sigh, ”The doctor said she... might not make it through the night.”

Seeing that she was about to ask more, Leng Zimo grabbed her hand and started to walk away.

”Zimo!” Luo Xiaoqian spoke softly.

”Luo Xiaoqian!” Leng Zimo snapped as he turned around, ”Do you want me to stay here? Now that she is in this pitiful state, you’ve forgiven her already? Let me tell you, even if she dies, I will never forgive her, never! Moreover, her affairs have nothing to do with you. Keep your head clear and don’t take responsibility for everything; it’s all Xu Pei’s own doing!”

Luo Xiaoqian, startled by his sudden outburst, was left standing there, unsure of what to do.

”Leng Zimo!” Leng Zirui, glancing at the frightened Luo Xiaoqian, growled, ”Don’t scare Xiao Qian...”
