With TianYang's leg fracture found, another was to be sent in for surgery. However, even at the doors of the operating theatre, TianYang could still be heard rambling on to the doctors.

"Arrange for a doctor to take care of XueQing's wounds," he said. "Her knees are scrapped. They're still bleeding..."

XueQing was rendered speechless at that. She could do nothing but obediently let a nurse clean and dress her wounds.

As the nurse finished up, FuRen and Yan arrived at the hospital.

"How's YiHan?" the two men frantically asked as they marched over. "What happened?"

JingYuan remained silent, his head still in his hands.

"Someone drove at me with a car today," XueQing's glum voice said. "Lil Bro rushed over and banged into the car, pushing it away. That's the only reason I'm alive. YiHan's been hurt on the head and he's still inside. The doctors say he's safe though."

Yan let out a sigh of relief. "What about you?" he asked. "Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine," she replied, massaging her forehead as she said so. "But TianYang broke his leg in saving me. He's in the operating theatre over there."

"Have you notified his parents?" FuRen asked.

"Aah!" XueQing lightly smacked her head. "I forgot."

Yan patted her on the shoulder in consolation. Just then, footsteps echoed down the hallway. Chen Feng rushed over with two men right behind him. They were panting hard.

"How's the Little Master?" Chen Feng pushed out between big gulps of air.

"How did you protect HanHan? Where did you go?" Yan barked.

Chen Feng stood up straight. "Little Master asked me to look into a few men," he said in a frustrated tone. "I saw that he had no intentions of leaving the house so I went to get it done. I only knew Little Master got into an accident when the men I'd ordered to follow the targets called me."

"You're the one who called this afternoon," JingYuan suddenly broke his silence and asked. "Who did he ask you to investigate?"

Chen Feng didn't dare to hide anything. He immediately dug out the paper and handed it over.

"The person who drove at Miss XueQing today is this man," Chen Feng said, pointing out Wei Quan's name.

JingYuan stared so hard down at the handwritten piece of paper that it seemed like he was trying to bore a hole in Wei Quan's name through sheer force of will.

After a pause, he said, "What did you find?"

Chen Feng told the Bai family and JingYuan everything he'd found out about Wei Quan.

"Woman?" Yan spoke up. "What woman?"

Chen Feng took out his phone and showed them the photo of the woman and Wei Quan heading into the rental car shop that afternoon. The lady in the picture only had a sliver of her side-profile showing but that didn't prevent JingYuan from instantly recognising her.

"Tao Qi!" JingYuan spat out through gritted teeth. His eyes glared at the phone screen.

"Tao Qi? Why does this name sound so familiar? Ah, right," XueQing gasped in shock. "Lil Bro's girlfriend?"

It was only when the words left her mouth did she realise she'd misspoken. She hurriedly glanced at JingYuan. His face had turned a sickly green. His lips were pursed in a tight line.

"Why would this woman want me dead?" XueQing cautiously continued. "We don't even know each other. Right?"

"That will be a question for her," JingYuan darkly said.
