The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 239: Hai Xiaotang, Don’t Die_1

Just when her lungs felt like they were going to burst, a strong hand grasped her wrist.

Hai Xiaotang instinctively clung to him, as if clutching onto a lifeline.

Her body was dragged out of the vehicle, the pressure of the surrounding water gradually lessened until she seemed to see the brilliant light of the sun.

As her eyelids slowly started to droop, and just before she completely lost consciousness, she vaguely saw someone rushing into the cold, dark detention room.

Then, the faraway yet loud shout of that person echoed in her ears.

[Hai Xiaotang, hold on… you can’t die, do you hear me… Hai Xiaotang, don’t die…]

Hai Xiaotang was saved, but the kidnapper escaped by diving into the water when the car crashed into Xiangjiang.

The police are now conducting a widespread search for him.

But Hai Xiaotang hasn’t pulled through yet.

Everyone found out about her accident, her grandfather, her uncle’s family, Dongfang Yu’s parents, Qiao Ning… everyone knew.

When Hai Zhiyuan found out about the situation, he nearly fainted from a heart attack, but he eventually recovered.

Dongfang Yu stayed by her bedside day and night, never leaving her side.

However, he didn’t seem sad, just shrouded in a lingering aura of gloom.

Early in the morning, Hai Zhiyuan, accompanied by nanny Zhang, came to visit Hai Xiaotang again.

Besides worrying about Hai Xiaotang, he was also concerned for Dongfang Yu. “Ayu, go get some rest. Xiaotang will be fine. Your health isn’t good either if you keep staying here without getting proper rest.” the old man urged him. Dongfang Yu replied in a low voice: “Grandfather, I’m fine. You should take care of your health.”

“I’m almost at the end of my life anyway, it doesn’t matter to me, but you are still young…”

“Grandfather, you should go back and rest. Hai Xiaotang will be fine, I’ll let you know when she wakes up.” Dongfang Yu interrupted him, his tone was firm.

In any case, he was not going to leave.

How could he possibly leave? With Hai Xiaotang’s life hanging in the balance, his heart was on tenterhooks—let alone leaving, he didn’t even want to blink. He was afraid that he might lose her in the blink of an eye.

Seeing his deep affection, the old man sighed in relief but also sighed, “Alright then, I’ll go home. You too must take care of yourself. Xiaotang might have to rely on you in the future.”

“I will.” Dongfang Yu nodded solemnly.

Hai Zhiyuan returned home, where nanny Zhang helped him sit down in the living room.

“Master, don’t worry too much about Miss. She will be fine.” nanny Zhang tried to comfort him.

The old man nodded, with a serious look on his face, “I believe she will be alright. But who could be so heartless as to want to harm my Xiaotang?”

Nanny Zhang was also indignant, “Master, the police will definitely catch them, they won’t be able to elude capture for long!”

Hai Zhiyuan nodded, “I hope so.”

Just as his words fell, Hai Rong and Zhang Yu suddenly barged in, excitedly.

“Dad, good news, good news!”

Zhang Yu’s voice arrived before she did, it was full of joy.

Ever since Hai Xiaotang’s accident yesterday, the atmosphere at home had been somewhat gloomy, especially now that she was still in critical condition.

Yet at this moment, Zhang Yu and Hai Rong suddenly came in with such joy. It disturbed everyone in the room.

Hai Zhiyuan gave them a glance and asked calmly, “What’s all this fuss about? What happened to make you so happy?”
