Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

Chapter 210

Sun Xiaohong's legs went weak once she saw the body lay there, blood flowing from it. Cheng Lingsu's heart had thoroughly collapsed by the time she reached her father. She knelt there helplessly, crying bitterly. "Somebody! Help us!"

The entire street was in a mess right now.

Sun Xiaohong somehow crawled over there, sobbing with tears. "Hanlin… Hanlin… Don't leave me… I'm begging you, don't leave our daughters and me."

"D-Dad…"

Cheng Lingsu's clothes were already dyed in blood. She wanted to embrace her father, but she knew that she shouldn't move him at this moment.

It was best to wait for the doctor!

However, since Cheng Hanlin wasn't moving at all, it didn't look good at all. If a person still had consciousness after getting hit by a car, it was still okay, but the worse case is no reaction. Moreover, the car had struck him too severely just now so the chances of him surviving were quite low.

Cheng Lingsu took her cell phone out. She didn't call 120 but instead called Jiang Xiu, "Jiang Xiu… Wuw… my dad… got hit by a car."

"Oh? And?"

Cheng Lingsu's heart collapsed yet again after hearing such an indifferent response from Jiang Xiu, "Jiang Xiu, he's my father and also your father-in-law. He's about to die, and you act like this. Are you even human?"

Jiang Xiu turned silent for a moment, "Where are you right now?"

"At the university entrance!"

Jiang Xiu recalled the car that was tailing Cheng Hanlin, it was Jiang Hao's car. It seemed like what Cheng Hanlin said at the doorway wasn't a lie. It was possible that the actual perpetrator behind his father going to prison was the Jiang family. They wanted to kill Cheng Hanlin to silence him.

"Is he still alive?"

Cheng Lingsu wailed, "I don't know. He's unconscious…"

"I'm coming over!"

This time, Jiang Xiu was quite fast. He transformed into a shadow as he jumped across the roofs. Cheng Lingsu didn't know how he had arrived here, but soon, she could already see him at a distance. He passed through the crowd quickly and reached her.

"Jiang Xiu… save my father."

Sirens echoed at a distance from the ambulance. Unfortunately, the road was blocked by the cars due to the accident so it could not reach here in time.

Jiang Xiu crouched beside Cheng Hanlin who had stopped breathing. His heart had also stopped. Jiang Xiu pulled Cheng Hanlin's lower eyelids down with his fingers which had taken the form of scissors. "His soul hasn't scattered yet!"

He bit his finger at touched Cheng Hanlin's Yin Palace then dragged it downwards, creating a bloodstain there. Immediately after that, he started chanting a spell.

Along with the spell's chant, the bloodstain on Cheng Hanlin's Yin Palace slowly blended into his body.

"He won't die…"

Cheng Lingsu was skeptical, but that bloodstain disappearing into Cheng Hanlin's forehead was pretty magical. Jiang Xiu explained, "A human's life or death depends on the soul, if the soul hasn't scattered, the person won't die."

Cheng Lingsu couldn't make sense of it, but she believed Jiang Xiu's words.

At this moment, she could only believe in Jiang Xiu.

Sun Xiaohong was entirely dumbstruck as if she had lost her soul. "Hanlin, don't leave us. What will we do if you're gone…"

The ambulance finally came over at this moment.

The medical personnel immediately moved Cheng Hanlin into the ambulance. Sun Xiaohong and Cheng Lingsu also wanted to get on the ambulance, but it was too crowded inside with two doctors, two nurses as well as oxygen tanks and other equipment. There wasn't enough place for both of them. Sun Xiaohong scrambled for it, "I'll go…"

The ambulance left for the hospital.

Jiang Xiu stopped a cab and left for the hospital along with Cheng Lingsu. On the way, Cheng Lingsu couldn't settle down due to the terrifying experience. She suddenly recalled something and immediately called Cheng Lingran, wailing loudly. "Sis, dad got hit by a car and was taken to the hospital."

Cheng Lingran dropped the cell phone due to the shocking news.

After arriving at the hospital, Cheng Hanlin was taken to the ER immediately. Cheng Lingran also rushed over there. The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly. Cheng Hanlin was their pillar, they didn't know what do without him.

Soon after, Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling also came over.

"How did this happen?"

Lin Yueling's eyes turned red after watching the three of them cry bitterly.

The doctor came out of the room at this moment. The three of them surrounded him to inquire about Cheng Hanlin. The doctor said, "The patient is quite lucky. More than half of bones are broken yet he still didn't die. He's stable now, but another operation is required. Only, it's better for you to prepare your hearts. Though he's alive, he can only spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair."

Tears flowed down from their eyes. This was better than what they had feared. "Doctor, can nothing be done?"

The doctor said, "This is already the best outcome."

Jiang Yi remained silent after hearing this and smoked a cigarette at the bedside. Although he hated Cheng Hanlin, now that he ended up like this, he couldn't feel hate for him anymore, only regret remained. Compared to the years he spent in prison, becoming a cripple was much worse. On the other hand, Jiang Xiu was faintly excited, feeling as if this was decreed by fate. In the previous timeline, a car had hit his father, making him a cripple and now, the one who got hit by the car was Cheng Hanlin.

Jiang Xiu pulled Sun Xiaohong to the side and questioned her, "Someone wants to kill you?"

Sun Xiaohong's expression morphed, but she shook her head in denial.

She didn't dare to say it. This time, it was Cheng Hanlin. Next time, the target would be her and then her two daughters.

"Is it the one who came today?"

Sun Xiaohong cried out, "How do you know?"

"Why does he want to kill you? Is related to my father getting imprisoned back then? Is that why they want to silence you?"

Since Jiang Xiu had already guessed this much, Sun Xiaohong didn't conceal it anymore. Tears kept falling from her eyes as she nodded. "Jiang Xiu. Your Uncle Cheng didn't betray your father on purpose. No, he was forced into doing it by the person who came to your house today. 12 years ago, he came to look for your Uncle Cheng and made him bring down your father…"

Jiang Xiu's face turned gloomier. He had already realized this was the case when he learned that Cheng Hanlin got hit by a car. Now, he had received confirmation through Sun Xiaohong.

"Please forgive your Uncle Cheng. That man threatened him using our lives back then. Your Uncle Cheng was helpless back then. 12 years ago, a car almost ran over Susu and me."

…

The operation lasted 9 hours, and four doctors swapped roles during this operation. After that, Cheng Hanlin was placed in the ICU, and Sun Xiaohong kept guard at the hospital bed.

The Cheng sisters were busy handling the procedures.

It was the Mid-autumn festival tomorrow. It was supposed to be a happy reunion party spent with the family, and also the first occasion spent together for both the families after Cheng Lingsu and Jiang Xiu got married, but the situation had taken such a turn.

Cheng Hanlin woke around 10 AM on the next day.

"Hanlin, you're awake?"

Cheng Hanlin spent a great effort to speak, "I-I'm alive?"

"Bah! Stop saying ill words."

The two sisters rushed over and tried to reveal a smile. Cheng Lingran said, "Dad, don't worry and overthink things. Recuperate well. We're here for you."

Cheng Lingsu also smiled, "Yes. The doctor said that what you need most is spirit right now. You'll definitely be able to get up from the bed if you have the will."

"No. We need to quickly leave the Imperial Capital."

"He won't let us live."

The Cheng sisters' expression changed suddenly. Cheng Lingran asked him, "Dad, what did you say? This wasn't an accident? Someone tried to murder you?" The police had come over, and they too believed it was a premeditated murder attempt.

Cheng Hanlin realized he had slipped.

"Don't hide it." Sun Xiaohong said.

Sun Xiaohong explained whatever she knew about the matter and Cheng Hanlin covered the remaining parts. After listening, Cheng Lingsu said, "So you're saying that the reason for it is Uncle Jiang's family."

"They even wanted to silence you and mother?"

Sun Xiaohong said, "Susu, don't flare up. Jiang Xiu said he'll handle it."

…

Right now, Jiang Xiu's entire family had set off from home in a car arranged by the Jiang family to take them over for the Mid-autumn festival. The Jiang couple had already planned it well ever since they came to the Imperial Capital. Moreover, since Jiang Hao had visited their home yesterday, they felt it was logical to do it.

None of the three spoke inside the car. This Mid-autumn festival reunion feast wasn't easy to stomach. If Jiang Yi wanted to return, Jiang Xiu would have to dump Cheng Lingsu and marry the girl from the Nangong family.

The car didn't leave for Jiang Yishan's house but instead went towards the famous Little Old Summer Palace at the Donglu Mountain.

"We've arrived!"

The car stopped inside the manor.
