Chapter 162: I Can Find Dad
Chapter 162
Li Xiaoya pushed him towards the off-road vehicle parked nearby. "You should go now."
Ke Muning shrugged, "Alright."
They got into the off-road vehicle, becoming smaller and more distant in Li Xiaoya's sight.
Li Xiaoya thought blankly.
Those who initially stood on the opposite side could also be good people.
Those who initially stood by your side could also be bad people...
She didn't want to be enemies with Ke Muning anymore.
Li Xiaoya slowly turned around.
Shen Yong and Li Qingqing were terrified. Shen Yong even tremblingly took out his phone, "I'll... I'll call the police."
Otherwise, he feared they wouldn't make it out alive.
He didn't know if Ke Muning had truly left, afraid that the demon might return for another round.
Li Jiang lay motionless on the ground.
The surroundings fell silent.
Li Xiaoya slowly walked to the edge of the steps and sat down.
At that moment, Shen Yong's phone rang abruptly, preventing him from dialing 110.
He answered shakily, "Hello, hello, help, I..."
"Is this Shen Yong?" Sheng Yuxiao's cold voice came from the other end.
"Yes, yes, please save me..."
"Listen to me, the police will be there soon."
Shen Yong leaned weakly against the container behind him, "Okay, okay..."
"Have you heard of New Domain Medical Group?"
"No, no, I haven't."
"Good. All you need to know is that it's the top private medical group in the country. You'll have to go to prison, but I can arrange for your daughter to receive treatment there."
Shen Yong was stunned.
Tears suddenly flowed down his cheeks, "Really? Really?"
"Do you know how to describe what just happened to others?"
Shen Yong shuddered.
He wasn't truly stupid; he was just limited by his knowledge, experience, and circumstances. His indulgence towards Li Jiang was essentially because he had placed his hope in Li Jiang.
But now someone had given him new hope...
He was initially worried that the other party might be deceiving him.
But with these words, he understood that it wasn't a lie!
Shen Yong lowered his voice, "We... we don't mention the foreigner, right?"
"No, you should mention him." Because it couldn't be hidden anyway. Sheng Yuxiao knew this clearly.
"But you don't know him, you never knew him, and no one here knows him, understand?"
"Yes, yes! I understand!"
With that, Sheng Yuxiao hung up the phone.
Shen Yong had finally found new hope, and he began to cry in a muffled voice.
Li Qingqing, seeing his seemingly insane reaction, asked shakily, "Did you call the police?"
If not, she would have to turn on her phone and call herself.
At this point, just being able to survive was good enough!
Li Qingqing didn't dare to hope for anything more.
But just then, the sound of police sirens approached.
Li Qingqing fell to the ground, also crying tears of joy.
Li Jiang slowly opened his eyelids, his face ashen and terrible.
They were all the same... never had they been more eager for the arrival of the police than at this moment!
Sheng Yuxiao's car arrived almost immediately after.
Qin Sui followed closely behind, not far apart.
"I thought you'd arrive much earlier?" Qin Sui looked at Sheng Yuxiao in surprise.
Sheng Yuxiao didn't respond, taking large strides towards Li Xiaoya.
It had been a long time since she had looked so disheveled.
She sat there, still trying to piece together her broken phone, looking pitiful.
"Xiaoya!" Sheng Yuxiao called out.
Li Xiaoya suddenly looked up, and upon seeing Sheng Yuxiao, she said softly, "The card you gave me is broken."
"What card?" Sheng Yuxiao was momentarily confused.
Then he realized she was talking about the SIM card.
He had given her many things, and he didn't really remember everything he had given.
But she remembered.
And kept it close to her heart.
When the wheels crushed the "beautiful thing" someone had given her, it felt like they had crushed her heart.
It hurt.
"We can get a new one, Xiaoya. It's okay, it's okay, it's not important." Sheng Yuxiao picked her up.
Li Xiaoya responded with a small "Oh."
Sheng Yuxiao then turned to look at Li Jiang's condition.
People were talking in shock over there: "His hand has been crushed, with multiple comminuted fractures, accompanied by severe dislocation injuries, and severe burns near the skin. There are insects in the wound, and quicklime..."
Sheng Yuxiao silently raised his hand to cover Li Xiaoya's eyes. "Don't look."
It was actually a bit late to cover her eyes.
In Ke Muning's mind, Li Xiaoya was a fearless Demo, so he never thought about shielding her from anything, doing everything right in front of her.
But Li Xiaoya still obediently lowered her eyes, allowing Sheng Yuxiao to shield her.
Qin Sui slowly withdrew his astonished gaze, then took out a handkerchief and handed it to Li Xiaoya. "Want to wipe?"
Meanwhile, in a black SUV, Wei Wenqing was shaking violently, unable to control himself.
"Shouldn't we... go faster?"
"Slow down a bit more." Wei Wenqing's phone emitted a voice.
His heart was burning with anger and hatred, his eye sockets seemed about to be torn by his bulging eyes.
But Sheng Yuxiao's call to stop them had made it very clear.
The Gui family couldn't have any reaction to this.
Only in this way... all the injuries on Li Jiang would have nothing to do with the Gui family.
After all, the Gui family wasn't exactly clean to begin with, and being able to return to the country was already a good thing.
If at this critical moment they got involved in this mess, making people think that even after returning to the country, they still habitually dealt with problems in the mafia way... that wouldn't be good.
It would not only be detrimental to the Gui family's attempt to change their ways.
It would also be unfavorable for Xiaoya's future.
Wei Wenqing closed his eyes forcefully.
For Xiaoya.
For Xiaoya...
They had to endure...
They must be the last to arrive.
At this time, outside the warehouse, a police officer approached, "If it's alright, can our female officers take care of Miss Li?"
Li Xiaoya turned and nodded.
The police saw that her face was also scratched, her eyes red and swollen, and streaks of tears had washed through the dust on her face.
They all couldn't help but sigh.
Just as the female officer was about to take Li Xiaoya,
Wei Wenqing's car finally arrived. He hurriedly got out of the car and rushed towards Li Xiaoya.
He made inarticulate sounds as he checked if Li Xiaoya was injured.
The female officer said, "We will do a thorough check, don't worry..."
Others asked, "Who is this...?"
Sheng Yuxiao said, "A relative, he's Li Xiaoya's uncle."
Li Jiang, who had been firmly strapped to the stretcher, almost like a pile of rotten flesh, suddenly opened his eyes again. He stared at Wei Wenqing for a moment.
Wei Wenqing and Wei Wenyu did look somewhat alike.
And the two younger ones still had some common qualities, untainted by darkness... Li Jiang's gaze blurred for a moment, and he suddenly shouted with a hoarse laugh, "Xiaoya! What should we do? I never want to tell you who your biological father really is..."
Wei Wenqing trembled as he turned around, lunging towards Li Jiang, but was stopped by the police.
Wei Wenqing stared with wide eyes, only able to make hoarse, silent curses.
The police suddenly realized—
He was mute.
They couldn't help but feel a lump in their throats, unable to bear looking at the victim's family member any longer.
"Take him away!"
Li Xiaoya said, "Wait."
She pushed away the female officer's hand and slowly walked in front of Li Jiang. She looked down at him and said, "I'm especially glad that you're not my father."
Li Jiang's face turned ashen, and he struggled violently, "Xiaoya, you don't need to say things to provoke me... I won't tell you who that person is. Don't worry, no matter how others question me, even if they beat me to death, I... won't say. Haha."
"Will Wei Lin not say either?"
"He won't, haha! He won't! He's like me, he'd rather die than say it!"
"Why? Is it because my biological father is very powerful?"
Li Jiang's face darkened, and he didn't respond.
Li Xiaoya continued, "There's one more thing. Mom was smart. If my biological father had disappeared and was a bad man, Mom wouldn't have stubbornly wanted to give birth to me. Unless, unless he didn't disappear..."
Li Xiaoya paused, then struggled to squeeze out the words, "Unless Mom knew he didn't disappear. He... died."
Li Jiang's facial muscles twitched.
He looked at her.
No longer feeling pleased about her intelligent genes.
Li Xiaoya knew she had guessed correctly.
Dad was dead.
She had never met him, he had died even earlier.
He didn't even know that Mom had given birth to her.
Li Xiaoya trembled.
But she held back, trying not to shake too violently.
She feigned cheerfulness and said, "See, I can figure out who he is without you telling me."
Li Jiang suddenly struggled more violently, shouting in anger, "You won't find him! You won't find him! You're destined! To be only my daughter! Mine!"
