Chapter 383 Tell Me the Truth!
“No. I can’t go with you! I have files to deliver!” Jing Shu is anxious. She neglects her bleeding feet and collects her files.
“You want to escape? Try it! Now, you won’t have any excuse. Go to the police office and find your justice!” The driver shouts excitedly. He holds out his hand and wants to catch Jing Shu’s hand.
Zhang Hai stands in front of Jing Shu. He stops the driver’s hand and says in a cold voice, “Uncle, don’t use your hand to speak! What are you doing?”
The man feels a little stressed when he hears Zhang Hai’s words. However, he is still not convinced. “I was worrying that she might escape.”
“There are so many people here. She is a young girl and she is injured. How can she escape?” Zhang Hai says. He turns to the policemen. “Sir, may I have a minute? I want to ask the girl some questions.”
The policemen notice Zhang Hai’s army uniform. They feel embarrassed to refuse him. They nod. One of them says, “Please be quick. We have other cases to deal with.”
Zhang Hai nods. He turns to Jing Shu. “Are you from World Era Weekly?”
“Yes. I am still an intern. This file is very important. I have to deliver it at once. If you don’t believe me, you can call…” Saying this, Jing Shu glimpses her phone which is broken into pieces on the ground. She feels helpless. “My phone is broken. But I can tell you the number. You can call to verify my identity. My name is Jing Shu. My supervisor is Xia Ning, the assistant to the Chief Editor of World Era Weekly.”
Mrs. Yi?
Zhang Hai widens his eyes. He asks at once, “What’s her phone number?”
Jing Shu thinks for a while, “Commander, please give me your phone. I’ll type in the number for you.”
Zhang Hai takes out his phone. Jing Shu takes it over and types in a series of figures. Zhang Hai looks at it and finds that it is truly Xia Ning’s phone number.
“OK. I see. Don’t worry. I will take care of this.”
Zhang Hai goes to the policemen. He whispers to them. The policemen suddenly turn serious. They salute to Zhang Hai at once with high respect.
“Yes, Commander. We see. The girl is seriously injured. You may send her to the hospital. As for the driver…” They glance at the man. “We will take care of the driver properly.”
“Thank you. I may take the girl to the hospital now.” Zhang Hai pats on the shoulder of one policeman. He goes to Jing Shu, “Let’s go to the hospital.”
“Commander.” Jing Shu holds the arm Zhang Hai offers, “Can you send me to XX company first? I have to deliver the files there first. I can go to the hospital later by myself.”
Looking at Jing Shu’s bleeding feet, Zhang Hai frowns, “Your wound…”
“Please!”
Zhang Hai looks at Jing Shu’s sincere eyes. He seems to have no choice but to agree. He holds Jing Shu and they go to the Knight XV parked beside.
When they see the car, people in the crowd take some deep breaths. God. That car can’t be owned by normal people!
“Hey! She has escaped! Sir, that girl was extorting…”
“If so, how can she know such an army man?” A policeman says in a cold voice, “Show me your driver license.”
The man feels shocked. “Why do you check me?”
“You hit someone, so I check you. Wait. You haven’t done annual verification for your car?”
Hearing this, the man feels nervous. “Well…I am too busy to do it in time…”
“Without annual verification, have a hitting accident. You will have 6 points deducted. Go with us to the police office.”
“What?” The man feels shocked. “Six points!”
Zhang Hai passes a mini medical kit to Jing Shu. “Do you know how to use the things inside? You may briefly treat your wound now. Or, it will be troublesome if it is infected.”
“Thank you.” Jing Shu takes over the kit and opens it. She takes out a bottle of disinfectant and wets a medical cotton to wash her wound. “Ouch…”
Zhang Hai feels worried to hear her voice. “Shall we go to the hospital first?”
“No. No!” Jing Shu shakes her head at once, “We almost arrive at XX company. It won’t last long. It is OK. I have learned first aid. I will be fine soon.”
Then, Jing Shu proficiently treats her wound. Zhang Hai feels a little surprised at her moves.
“Did you often get wounded?”
“Hum. When I was trained at school, I often got injured.”
“You have learned martial art?”
Jing Shu pauses. She looks up at Zhang Hai. After hesitating for a little while, she responds, “I learned a little self-protection skills. We are here. Commander, please pull over.”
“Hum.” Zhang Hai stops the car. He sees Jing Shu take her files and run. He can’t help reminding her. “Be careful, don’t run too fast. Your feet have wounded!”
But Jing Shu was still running fast, as if she didn’t hurt her feet. Zhang Hai sighs. “There are really young girls risking their lives to work.”
Zhang Hai is worried about Jing Shu’s wound, so he decides to wait for her. Five minutes later, Jing Shu comes out. When she walks, she slightly staggers.
Zhang Hai frowns. He gets off the car and goes to support her.
“Oh. Commander, you are still here.”
“Your feet are injured. Come on. Let me drive you to the hospital.”
“No need. I am going to have a meeting at five. I don’t have enough time. I will go to the hospital after the meeting and getting off work.”
Hearing this, Zhang Hai feels helpless, “Other young girls will cry bitterly over a few tiny scratches. But you are injured so seriously while you look as if nothing happens to you. You can simply call Mrs.… your supervisor and report the injury.”
“No!” Jing Shu decisively shakes her head, “If I can’t even finish this simple task, what about other things? Commander, I really want to stay in World Era Weekly. I can’t have my score deducted because of this. Anyway, it is nothing serious. I will be fine after resting for a while.”
“I believe your supervisor is very sensible. You don’t need to be so worried…”
“Commander, you don’t understand.” Jing Shu purses her lips. “It is a little complicated. Anyway, thank you for your help today. Commander, can you give me your phone number? After I recover, I will invite you for a dinner.”
“Ha. Ha. Ha.” Zhang Hai laughs. “It is nothing worth mentioning. We will surely have other chances to meet in the future. To be honest, I know your supervisor.”
“Seriously?” Hearing this, Jing Shu widens her eyes in surprise. She thinks for a while and says, “Commander, can you promise me one thing?”
“What’s it?”
“Please don’t mention anything about what happened today to Sister Xia. Please.”
Zhang Hai feels confused. “It is nothing wrong. Why can’t I mention?”
Jing Shu is anxious. “I may explain to you later. But, commander, please! Can you promise me that? Please!”
Zhang Hai feels his heart melt. He can’t but agree. He nods, “OK. I promise. But you also need to promise me one thing. You have to go to the hospital!”
Jing Shu gives a sigh of relief, “OK! Sure!”
When Jing Shu goes back to the company. She is right on time to attend the meeting. Jing Shu gives a sigh of relief.
Xia Ning is aware of Jing Shu’s embarrassment. She feels confused. “Why are your clothes dirty? What happened just now? Well. What’s that smell…”
There is a strong smell of alcohol.
Jing Shu is panic. “Nothing. I fell just now and got some scratches. I applied some medicine. Sister Xia, can I attend the meeting looking like this?”
“Be careful next time. Pay attention when walking. Wash your face and attend the meeting.” Xia Ning turns around to enter the meeting room.
Rui will come to pick her up in half an hour. She has to finish it fast.
Inside the Knight XV.
“Tell the truth! What happened?”
Yi Yunrui’s voice sounds deadly cold with some vague anger. Zhang feels his heart tightened.
Commander Yi doesn’t smile very often, but he is seldom angry, too. Now, he looks grey once he gets in the car. He looks at Zhang Hai as if he wants to tear him apart. What’s wrong?
“Com…Commander, what’s wrong?” Zhang Hai asks confusedly.
“Why is there another smell in the car?”
“…” Another smell?
Yi Yunrui darkens his face, “Don’t pretend you know nothing!”
Zhang Hai feels shocked. God. The Commander really loses his temper.
“No. No. I didn’t. Commander, can you tell me more clearly? I am too stupid to understand your question.” Even if he is going to die, he has to know what mistakes he has made.
Yi Yunrui closes his eyes. He hesitates for a little while. Then he asks in patience, “Did any women get in the car?”
When Zhang Hai hear this, it all clicks!
“Oh, yes. Today, a girl…” Zhang Hai suddenly stops here. He remembers that he promised that girl to keep it confidential.
“Why do you stop? Go ahead.”
“…Well. Commander, I am willing to tell you. But I promised her that I would not tell. Commander, you often teach us that we should keep our promises.”
Yi Yunrui looks silently at him for quite a while. Then, he takes out his phone and dials some numbers. “Zhang Hai, you may go and pack your things, Xinjiang is in lack of soldiers…”
“Commander! I’ll tell. I’ll tell you now.” Zhang Hai raises his hand and gives in. “I met a girl today. She was delivering some files. She is an assistant of Mrs. Yi and was hit by a car and slandered by the driver. Then, I gave her a hand. That is all.”
“Ning’s assistant?”
“Hum. She said that she was an intern in World Era Weekly. She must be a newcomer.”
“What’s her name?”
“…” Zhang Hai feels stuck in embarrassment, “Commander, I didn’t ask her for her name. But I have her telephone number.”
Zhang Hai takes out his phone and passes it to Yi Yunrui, “Commander, I didn’t lie to you. That girl was hard-working. She was hit, but she was still worried about the files. She didn’t agree to go to the hospital. Well. Commander, you may check with Mrs. Yi later.”
Yi Yunrui says coldly, “Boy, you are getting cleverer now!”
“Sure… Oh?” Zhang Hai suddenly realizes that Yi Yunrui doesn’t mean it literally.
Yi Yunrui glances at the time. “Go to the Media Building.”
“Yes, Sir!” Zhang Hai gives s sigh of relief in his heart. He presses the accelerator.
At the time, Yi Yunrui’s phone rings. It is Xia Ning.
“Ning, I am on the way. Wait for me for a while.”
“Darling…oh, sorry. I have some emergency. I have to go to Junhao Group now. I may go home a little late.”
