Chapter 904 Explanation
Just then, the door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar figure appeared at the door.
"Jiang Mubai!" the man roared, "How dare you betray me!"
It was Gu Yanchen, his face was full of anger, his eyes were full of hatred. He held a gun in his hand, pointing it at Jiang Mubai...
Gu Yanchen's appearance was like a thunderclap that exploded in the originally romantic restaurant. His eyes were bloodshot, and the gun in his hand was shaking, as if it would go off at any time. Jiang Mubai's face was pale, and the wine glass in his hand slipped and fell to the ground, making a crisp shattering sound, just like her mood at the moment.
Lu Jingchen stood up suddenly, stood in front of Jiang Mubai, looked directly at Gu Yanchen, and said in a cold tone: "Gu Yanchen, are you crazy?"
"I'm crazy? You guys have driven me crazy!" Gu Yanchen yelled hysterically, "Jiang Mubai, you bitch, how dare you betray me! How dare you be with this pretty boy!"
"Gu Yanchen, it's over between you and me," Jiang Mubai took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm, "You were the one who betrayed our relationship first, and you were the one who let me down first."
"I betrayed you? When did I betray you?" Gu Yanchen sneered, "I just made a mistake that all men would make. Why do you treat me like this?"
"A mistake that all men make?" Jiang Mubai repeated this sentence, his tone full of sarcasm, "Gu Yanchen, you really make me sick!"
"You..." Gu Yanchen was enraged by Jiang Mubai's words. He raised his gun and pointed it at Jiang Mubai, "Go to hell!"
"Bang!" A gunshot broke the silence of the restaurant.
Jiang Mubai closed her eyes, waiting for death to come. However, the expected pain did not come. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Lu Jingchen standing in front of her, his arm was covered in blood.
"Jingchen!" Jiang Mubai exclaimed and threw himself on Lu Jingchen, "How are you?"
Lu Jingchen's face was pale, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead, but he still endured the pain and smiled at Jiang Mubai: "I'm fine, don't worry."
"You are stupid!" Jiang Mubai burst into tears, "Why did you take the bullet for me?"
"Because I love you," Lu Jingchen said weakly, "I can't let you get hurt."
Gu Yanchen completely collapsed when he saw this scene. He threw away the gun in his hand, knelt on the ground, and cried bitterly.
The restaurant was in chaos, with waiters and guests panicking. Soon, the police arrived and took Gu Yanchen away.
Lu Jingchen was sent to the hospital and was out of danger after emergency treatment.
Jiang Mubai stayed by Lu Jingchen's bedside, not leaving his side. She looked at Lu Jingchen's pale face, her heart filled with guilt and self-blame.
"Jingchen," she held Lu Jingchen's hand and choked up, "I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you got hurt."
Lu Jingchen slowly opened his eyes, looked at Jiang Mubai, and smiled weakly: "Silly, what nonsense are you talking about. I am willing to do anything for you."
Jiang Mubai's tears flowed again. She lowered her head and kissed Lu Jingchen on the lips.
This kiss was filled with gratitude, love, and a hint of bitterness.
In the next few days, Jiang Mubai took care of Lu Jingchen. Lu Jingchen's injuries gradually improved, but his mood remained low.
"Jingchen," Jiang Mubai looked at Lu Jingchen and asked softly, "Are you still thinking about Gu Yanchen?"
Lu Jingchen shook his head: "No, I've let it go."
"Then why do you..." Jiang Mubai hesitated, "Why do you look so unhappy?"
Lu Jingchen was silent for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Jiang Mubai with a complicated look in his eyes: "Mubai, I'm scared."
"Afraid?" Jiang Mubai looked at him puzzledly, "What are you afraid of?"
Lu Jingchen took a deep breath and said slowly: "I'm afraid you will leave me."
Jiang Mubai was stunned. She didn't expect Lu Jingchen to have such an idea.
"I..." She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
Lu Jingchen looked at Jiang Mubai, his eyes full of desire: "Mubai, can you give me a promise?"
"What promise?" Jiang Mubai asked.
Lu Jingchen held Jiang Mubai's hand and said seriously, "Promise me that you will never leave me."
Jiang Mubai looked at Lu Jingchen's affectionate eyes, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings. She knew that she owed Lu Jingchen too much.
Just as she was about to agree, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open and a woman walked in.
"Jingchen," the woman walked to Lu Jingchen's bed and said gently, "How do you feel?"
Jiang Mubai looked at the woman who suddenly appeared and had a bad feeling in his heart.
She knew this woman.
She is... Lu Jingchen's fiancée.
Fiancée? Jiang Mubai's brain was buzzing, as if a hundred bees were buzzing inside. She stood there stiffly, like a sculpture.
The woman walked over to Lu Jingchen and tucked the corner of the quilt for him affectionately, not noticing Jiang Mubai's presence at all. "The doctor said you are recovering very well and you can be discharged in a few days." She said softly, her voice was like the spring breeze blowing through the branches of a willow tree, so gentle that it could squeeze water out of it.
Lu Jingchen looked at her with complicated eyes, but he didn't say anything. The ward fell into a strange silence, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made people breathless.
Jiang Mubai felt as if her heart was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and she could hardly breathe. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
"You are..." The woman finally noticed Jiang Mubai and asked in confusion.
Lu Jingchen seemed to suddenly wake up, turned his head and looked at Jiang Mubai, with a flash of panic in his eyes. "Mubai, this is..." He paused, as if he was considering his words, "This is... my fiancée, Su Qian."
Su Qian? What a gentle name, what a gentle woman. Jiang Mubai sneered in her heart, this is the love that Lu Jingchen always talked about, it turns out that he has been lying to her all along.
"Hello." Su Qian politely extended her hand to Jiang Mubai with a decent smile on her face.
Jiang Mubai looked at the hand that was stretched out to her, and felt like she was seeing the tongue of a poisonous snake, which made her feel disgusted instinctively. She did not stretch out her hand, but just looked at Su Qian coldly, and said word by word: "Hello, I am Jiang Mubai."
Su Qian seemed to sense the hostility in Jiang Mubai's tone, and the smile on her face froze, but soon returned to normal. "I know you, you are Jingchen's... friend."
Friend? Jiang Mubai almost laughed out loud. She almost lost her life for Lu Jingchen, but in the end she only got the title of "friend". It was so ridiculous!
"Yes, friends." Jiang Mubai repeated the word, his tone full of sarcasm, "It seems that Mr. Lu has quite a few friends."
Lu Jingchen's face turned ugly. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to explain something, but was interrupted by Jiang Mubai.
