Chapter 432: Intentional Harm
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Above the pool of blood stood Mei Jing, covered in fresh blood, his eyes filled with disbelief.
In his hands, he held a bloody knife.
“Xiao Jing!” Mei Shu ran over without hesitation, embracing the trembling Mei Jing, “It’s okay. Don’t be afraid. Let Sister handle this.”
Zhao Yan also stood dumbfounded on the side. After a while, he regained some sense in his limbs and took two difficult steps forward. “Miss, what should we do?”
Mei Shu released Mei Jing, took the bloody knife from his hand, and tossed it aside.
The fruit knife made a light sound as it slid to the feet of a few servants, startling them.
Mei Shu ignored the reactions of others, squatting beside Mei Mu, reaching out to check her breath.
“Miss…”
“Sister…”
Several voices of concern and fear sounded simultaneously.
Mei Shu withdrew her hand, her brows suddenly furrowing. “Call for emergency services. She’s not dead yet, hurry!”
Zhao Yan finally reacted and quickly made the call. In his panic, he almost dropped the phone, but Mei Shu, with quick eyes and hands, caught the phone that was about to fall into the pool of blood.
Mei Feng approached Mei Shu, glanced at the dazed Mei Jing, pursed her lips, and said, “Sister, after Mei Mu wakes up, she will definitely hold Xiao Jing responsible. He’s already over fourteen years old and needs to bear certain legal responsibilities. We need to plan ahead.”
“What exactly happened?” Mei Shu’s primary concern was Yanyan.
She was afraid Yanyan, being young and impulsive, might have stained his hands with blood because of someone like Mei Mu, who was not worth it.
But what she never expected was that things would happen so quickly, and the one wielding the knife would be Mei Jing!
“Just now, when Mei Mu came home, her attitude was a bit arrogant. Yanyan couldn’t stand it and quarreled with her. When I came out of the bathroom, they were already fighting, and then Mei Mu inexplicably fell to the ground. Then we realized that Xiao Jing stabbed her in rage.”
Mei Feng was now full of regret!
He clearly knew that something would go wrong when Mei Mu returned home today.
But he was still so careless!
He could have prevented this accident. He shouldn’t have let his brothers out of his sight.
“It’s all my fault for being impulsive.” Mei Yan now felt scared. He walked timidly to Mei Shu’s side and said, “Sister, Brother did it to protect me. Mei Mu rushed up to hit me, and Brother did it for my sake.”
As he spoke, his voice already carried a hint of crying.
Mei Shu sighed deeply, embracing her brother. “Okay, don’t be afraid. Uncle Zhao, go get some hemostatic medicine and gauze. We need to stop Mei Mu’s bleeding. If it continues like this, Mei Mu is bound to die.”
“Okay.” Zhao Yan quickly retrieved the first aid kit from the drawer of the TV cabinet.
Mei Shu was surprised at how skilled she was in using these emergency techniques, even though she had never learned them before.
Perhaps it was a skill her previous self acquired.
But Mei Shu didn’t dwell on it. She was thinking about what to do next.
“Sister…” Mei Jing, who had been standing stiffly on the side, finally came to his senses. He moved his feet with difficulty, but accidentally slipped, sitting in the pool of blood.
As if the last straw had finally hit him, Mei Jing sat there, covering his face and crying.
Mei Feng worriedly tried to pull his brother up.
But Mei Jing stubbornly refused to get up. “Sister, will 1 be sentenced to death?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” Mei Shu said calmly, “No matter how Mei Mu ended up, Sister will risk my life to ensure your safety.”
“Sister.” Mei Feng looked at Mei Shu with surprise. Seeing Mei Shu’s cold and serious expression, he worried that things might get out of control. He was about to say something when the sound of an ambulance outside interrupted them.
When the medical staff arrived, they saw the crime scene and were about to report it directly to the police.
Mei Shu raised her blood-stained hand, firmly blocking him. “Doctor, your duty is to save lives. If you delay any longer and the person really dies, it will be your responsibility.”
“Miss, you!” The doctor stared in disbelief. When he saw a faint red light in Mei Shu’s eyes, his forehead jumped uneasily. “Alright, I’ll take the person to the hospital for rescue, but if the rescue is ineffective, I will definitely report it to the police.”
Only then did Mei Shu let go.
The doctor looked at the red handprint on his sleeve, his mouth twitching involuntarily. Then he took Mei Shu to the hospital together.
Mei Feng instructed the servants to clean up the living room and then asked the driver to take them to the hospital.
Mei Feng couldn’t be at ease until he heard that Mei Mu was not dead.
During the journey, Mei Jing looked silently out of the window.
Mei Feng, feeling a sourness in his heart, couldn’t help but advise, “Believe in Sister, you will be fine. 1 won’t let anything happen to you. If Mei Mu insists on holding you accountable, we can hire the best lawyer to defend you..”
