Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 394 - Will Not Let It Rest

It happened so fast that Xinyi had no time to gather her thoughts. She was suddenly pulled into Zhiyuan\'s embrace and didn\'t know why he looked so panicked.

But when the light fell on the floor, she felt her heart stop beating. She raised her head, stunned and froze to see blood trickling down Zhiyuan\'s temple.

"Zhiyuan…" her voice was almost a whisper as she paled.

"Ahhhhh!" The crowd shrieked in fear and chaos ensued in the hall.

"What just happened?"

"Gosh the light just suddenly fell!"

"Zhiyuan!" Xinyi saw his focus dwindling, and his brows furrowed in pain. Liao Yuan hastily said, "Xinyi! Are you alright?"

"Don\'t worry about me! Look at Zhiyuan! He is bleeding... S-somebody call the ambulance!"

The staff immediately gathered and were shocked as well. The manager gritted his teeth and glared at his staff members. "What the hell! The light just got loose and fell! How did this happen!?"

"S-sir we don\'t know either... Everything was alright-"

"Shut up!"

Everybody jolted in shock. The others present naturally complained. "This is not a joke. I was there just twenty minutes ago! What if it had fallen on my head!?"

"So dangerous!"

The manager came forward and apologized. "Mam, we are really sorry for this accident. I have called for an ambulance!"

Zhiyuan breathed heavily. "No...no need. I am alright."

"You are not alright!" Xinyi burst into tears, "Your head is bleeding. Your eye too…" she shuddered.

Liao Yuan couldn\'t see her like that. "Xinyi…" he raised his hand towards her, but it was sharply shaken off by Zhiyuan. "I am not dead, Mr. Liao," he felt dizzy, but he wasn\'t going to let him take any advantage.

"Stop talking, Zhiyuan! Come with me. Yuan, help me carry him."

He smiled and nodded.

"No need," he coldly said. "I am fine."

Xinyi glared at him. "You…"

Even now you are so stubborn when you are hurt!

Finally some of the staff members helped Zhiyuan up to the emergency room. The ambulance had already arrived, but Zhiyuan refused to go. "Just treat me here…"

Xinyi squeezed his hand and cried, "Why are you being like this? There is so much blood…"

He faintly smiled. "They can just dress the wound up."

The two male nurses quickly did their job. Thankfully, the instrument had grazed his temple and just missed his right eye by a few centimetres or it would have been devastating. If any glass shred had pierced his eye, it could have even gotten permanently damaged.

Xinyi almost fainted as she heard the doctor\'s report.

"The wound on his temple will be healed in a few days. Change the dressing everyday after cleaning it. There is a minor scratch on his eye, but it\'s not threatening."

Xinyi could finally breathe in relief. She wiped her tears and thanked the doctor.

She stared at Zhiyuan and hugged him hard. "You are an idiot. Why did you have to come in the way!? It could have smashed on your head…"

"Was I supposed to just sit and watch that light smash on your head then? Do you know how scared shit I was to see that light dangling over you?"

She bit her lip and stained his shirt wet. "Shut up. Not only did you get hurt, but you also refused to go to the hospital!"

His expression turned cold. "Because I want to talk to someone."

Liao Yuan stepped into the emergency room followed by Huang Rong. "Zhiyuan, how are-"

"Don\'t bother with your shit, Liao Yuan. I don\'t need your sympathy. But I definitely need some answers from your secretary."

Huang Rong widened her eyes. "From me?"

"Yes! Huang Rong, I cannot believe that you could go this far to hurt my wife! How fucking dare you try to take her life?"

"What? No! What do I have to do with the accident?"

His jaw clenched in anger. "Do you think I will take this as a fucking coincidence? The light fell just when Xinyi was on the stage. I don\'t believe that it was just an unfortunate accident. You hate Xinyi so much because Qin Fuhua broke off his engagement with you, and I destroyed your company. I don\'t think you will miss the chance to take revenge from Xinyi."

She froze in terror. "N-No way! It\'s all lies!" She cried. "I really don\'t know anything about it. What evidence do you have?"

"That I will find sooner or later. You always hated Xinyi for no reason, and through Liao Yuan, you would have already come to know that Xinyi would be present today too. You had plenty of time to plan this shit."

Huang Rong burst into tears. "This... I-I really don\'t know! Just because I misunderstood her in the past doesn\'t mean that I will try to take her life! I didn\'t mean any harm. In fact...I was going to apologize to Xinyi after this conference was over. I really regretted my actions back then…"

Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes. "I cannot trust you. How is it that out of all the days, this accident happened when you were here too?"

Liao Yuan intervened. "Okay, this is enough. I don\'t know how deep your differences are. But let\'s come to a conclusion only after we investigate. It might be really just an accident."

Zhiyuan smiled. "Of course you would try to protect your secretary. Guess this is the only extent of your so-called feelings for Xinyi."

He froze. He clenched his fist. "You have no business bringing my feelings into this, Han Zhiyuan."

"Zhiyuan…" Xinyi shook her head.

Zhiyuan said, "I don\'t give a damn about you. The only thing important to me is that somebody tried to hurt my wife. I am not letting this pass as a mere accident. Unless I find the culprit who had the galls to do this, I am not letting this rest. Especially you Huang Rong. If I find anything against you, I will utterly destroy you. Trust me.. I could do worse than just destroying your company."
