Chapter 369 -369 Heavenly Fortune (11)

“`

“She touched this knife, the knife has her fingerprints!”

Someone from the family yelled out.

The police officers’ expressions darkened a bit.

They’re not a criminal investigation team; are they supposed to be equipped with a professional team, too?

However, though these officers were quite dissatisfied internally, their attitudes were extremely cordial, involving medical malpractice, if not handled properly, they themselves might be implicated.

They hurriedly sent the knife back to the police station for examination.

As a result, there were fingerprints of only one person on the knife – and they didn’t belong to Chuzheng.

So many people claimed to have seen Chuzheng holding the knife, but in the face of the evidence, even though the police also found it a bit strange, they couldn’t say anything.

Chuzheng and the group of relatives were interrogated separately.

“Did you hit them?”

“No.” I kicked them, that doesn’t count as hitting.

“What is your relationship with the hospital?”

“…” Chuzheng silently for two seconds: “Patient.”

“Why did a patient get involved in this matter?” the officer asked suspiciously.

This was a case of a death, why would she, a patient, want to get involved in such trouble? This doesn’t fit the normal human instinct to avoid danger.

“I saw injustice.” Pulling out a knife to help!

“So you still have such a sense of justice?” the officer raised an eyebrow, “Aren’t you afraid that these people will not let you go either?”

Medical malpractice wasn’t common, but they’d certainly encountered it before.

When these relatives got stirred up, even the police suffered.

Chuzheng’s expression remained calm: “Not afraid.”

“…” The officer shook his head.

The statement didn’t reveal anything useful, and after their verification, Chuzheng did indeed appear to be a patient here… though she ran away after just a couple of days.

No injuries were found on the body of the patient’s brother or the other two men; not even a bruise.

Even if Chuzheng had really hit them, it would just be a minor dispute, not enough to arrest someone.

The patient’s relatives definitely wouldn’t be satisfied, but the police efficiently suppressed the situation.

Next came the issue of the medical malpractice.

This matter couldn’t be clarified with just one or two sentences.

–

Chuzheng escorted Chu Wu back to the office, pressing him down onto the chair.

“Do you have any medicine?”

Chu Wu frowned slightly, his gaze fixed intently on her.

The blood that had trickled down his forehead had already dried, turning a dark red hue, making his face look even more distinct and sharp.

Not getting an answer, Chuzheng searched the office and found some gauze and medicine.

She thrust the medicine in front of him: “Apply it yourself.”

Chu Wu’s face was somewhat pale as he looked up at Chuzheng.

“This matter doesn’t concern you.”

“Yeah.” Chuzheng nodded, “Apply the medicine.”

“Why did you interfere?” Chu Wu’s voice was a bit hoarse, his dark eyes staring intently at Chuzheng, as if trying to discern something from her face.

However, Chuzheng maintained a tight face throughout, expressionless.

“What does it matter to you whether I interfere or not.” Would I even be here if it weren’t for you?

“This is my issue.”

“The person involved isn’t just you.”

“…”

Chuzheng slapped the table, a bit ferociously: “Are you going to apply it or not?”

The other didn’t respond.

Chuzheng pinched Chu Wu’s chin, tilting it up slightly, and brushed aside the hair on his forehead: Not gentle.

The first thought flashed through her mind, and only then did Chuzheng see the wound beneath the fallen hair.

Did that group always carry an Erlang hammer with them?

To make such a big wound.

I was too light with those kicks!

No good.

Gotta find a chance to make up for that.

Chuzheng was extremely close.

“`

This distance reminded Chu Wu of when he had been ill before, how she was this close to him, and even more…

Chu Wu didn’t know why these thoughts came to him.

But it seemed his thoughts were out of control.

The girl bent slightly forward as if to examine his wound, even reaching out to poke it.

The wound that had stopped bleeding was prodded by her, and Chu Wu felt a warm flow down his cheek.

“…”

Chu Wu looked up slightly, and the girl’s slender neck entered his view, leading down to the glimpse of a collarbone hidden beneath her clothing.

Her breath fell on his face, bringing a soft tickle.

Her cherry blossom-colored lips were gently pursed; they looked incredibly beautiful, and must feel comfortable to kiss…

Chuzheng didn’t care whether it hurt or not while applying the medicine; she did it as quickly as possible.

Her movements were brisk as she cleaned the wound, applied medicine, and bandaged it up.

The whole process took only a few minutes.

As their distance suddenly widened, Chu Wu woke up with a start and got to his feet, the chair having no room to retreat; unsteady, he instinctively grabbed the person in front of him.

Chuzheng still held the medicine and gauze in her hand, and with Chu Wu’s pull, she went tumbling down as well.

Chuzheng braced herself on both sides of the chair, the gauze and medicine falling to the floor.

Chu Wu sat in the chair, his head slightly reclined, a few barely perceptible signs of annoyance appearing on his handsome and indifferent face.

Their gazes collided in the air, neither moving.

Chu Wu was annoyed with himself for actually having imagined himself kissing her just now.

When he was ill, his consciousness had been unclear, and he didn’t remember much, but the vaguer the memory was, the more enchanting the image became, making him want to recall it more.

Chu Wu held his breath, his pale face slowly flushing a pink hue.

All of a sudden, Chuzheng bent her right leg and knelt between Chu Wu’s legs, leaning down to capture his chin and went straight in for the kiss.

Chu Wu’s eyes widened suddenly.

Chuzheng’s kiss wasn’t as soft and gentle as he had imagined a girl’s kiss would be, but it was aggressive and domineering in a way that was impossible to resist…

Chu Wu didn’t know if it was he who didn’t want to resist or if she wouldn’t allow him to resist.

But he really…

wanted to immerse himself in it.

Thump thump thump—

His heartbeat quickened gradually.

He couldn’t help but flick his tongue against hers, and that flick made the person kissing him even more presumptuous…

“Chu Wu.”

The door to the office was suddenly pushed open.

The person at the door caught sight of the scene inside the office at a glance.

He snapped the door shut with a ‘click’.

Had he seen that incorrectly?

Or was Chu Wu really kissing a girl?

In the office, Chuzheng, disturbed by the interruption, bit Chu Wu a couple of times in dissatisfaction, then pulled back a bit.

With a serious and stern look, the girl asked him, “Does it still hurt?”

Chu Wu: “??”

What kind of immortal question was that!

Where did it hurt him?

What hurt him?

The person outside probably collected his feelings and knocked on the door politely.

Chu Wu, feeling quite flustered, pushed Chuzheng away and stood up, knocking over a chair in the process, creating a clattering noise.

The people outside probably heard it.

Chu Wu took a couple of deep breaths, not daring to look at Chuzheng, and walked toward the door with big steps, pulling it open.

The young doctor peered curiously into the office.

Chu Wu, whether intentionally or unintentionally, was blocking his view.

The young doctor hadn’t come for the gossip; he was concerned about a medical incident.

“Are you really sure there were no problems during the surgery? That everything was dealt with?”

“Yes,” Chu Wu confirmed.

“Then why did he suddenly die?” The young doctor did believe Chu Wu, but his frown showed his confusion, “The cause still hasn’t been found. Maybe you shouldn’t show up for now, or maybe you should leave the hospital for a while?”

“No need, this trouble was caused by me.”
