"Only one family mber can co with us. Everyone else must take a taxi to the hospital." With that, the door closed.
On the other side, Ning Zihuan was also carried onto the ambulance, and Mingyue jumped on.
Watching the ambulance drive away, Yan He stomped in frustration, while Wan Fu smiled helplessly: "She’s Boss’s legitimate girlfriend, don’t worry."
"We’ve let N escape; we better think about how to explain this to Boss."
Thinking of this made Yan He infuriated; that N was incredibly cunning. Even after setting up a perfect trap, she managed to slip away. The most annoying part was, Yan He was the first to discover N’s traces, engaged in two rounds of combat with her, severely injured her, yet she still escaped.
If Boss finds out that Yan He let N escape, she will definitely not be spared. Most importantly, she cannot let Boss be disappointed in her.

Ning Ziqi did not live with the Ning Family, but rented an apartnt near the hospital; two bedrooms and a living room, it was clean and peaceful living alone, adding to the tranquility.
After taking a shower, he opened his computer, organized the reference materials needed for tomorrow, and then made himself a bowl of instant noodles. The sll made him feel nauseous, but there was no takeaway available at this hour, so he could only eat the noodles to fill his stomach and stay awake.
Just as he was about to take the first bite, the doorbell suddenly rang.
He instinctively paused; almost no one knew he lived here. Who could it be?
With that thought, he stepped towards the door and peeked through the peephole: "Who is it?"
There was no answer, but it seed to be a woman.
With that thought, he opened the door slightly, suddenly a blood-stained hand grabbed the door fra, blood still dripping from it. As a mber of the Ning Family, he had seen many unusual situations, so he abruptly opened the door wide. The next mont, a soft body collapsed into his arms.
He was montarily stunned, the intense sll of blood filled his nostrils, and a weak voice whispered.
"Senior... save ..."
It was Bai Xue.
He glanced outside, quickly closed the door, carried her inside, and laid her on the sofa.
The girl’s black clothes were soaked completely with blood, her face pale, adding a touch of delicate beauty.
Ning Ziqi frowned deeply.
Weakly, the girl opened her eyes, smiled bitterly: "Senior, I’m being hunted. If you’re afraid of trouble, just throw out. I wouldn’t have bothered you unless it was a last resort."
Ning Ziqi’s hands clenched and then gradually relaxed, his voice cold: "Don’t talk."
Bending down, he checked her injuries: "Bullet wound, hit in the waist and abdon, but fortunately didn’t damage any organs." With that, he found the first-aid kit, took scissors and cut open her clothes at the abdon, revealing the blood-stained skin.
Ning Ziqi used alcohol-soaked cotton swabs to disinfect the area; the girl winced in pain, her hands tightly gripping the sofa beneath her, yet didn’t utter a sound.
Ning Ziqi glanced at her, turned and fetched a clean towel, holding it to her mouth: "Bite down."
The girl opened her mouth and bit onto the towel.
Ning Ziqi quickly cleaned the wound, applied dicine, and bandaged her: "You’ve lost quite a bit of blood, but fortunately, you’re physically strong. Rest well for a while and you’ll be fine."
The girl, exhausted to the point of collapse, smiled at him: "Thank you, Senior..." With that, she fainted.
Ning Ziqi stood still, looking at the girl’s face, pale as paper, his frown deepening. He was soone who feared trouble greatly; reason told him he should throw her out imdiately, but if he did, she wouldn’t get the rest she needed, and with the danger of being hunted, she’d surely die. Yet, to keep her here...
After hesitating for a while, he sighed helplessly, carefully held her without aggravating her wounds, walked to the bedroom, laid her on the large bed, covered her with a blanket, and turned to leave.
What he didn’t know was, as he walked away, the girl who should have been unconscious suddenly opened her eyes. In the darkness, a peculiar glint appeared in her eyes, revealing a trace of smugness.
Ning Ziqi first tidied up the ssy living room; the sofa cover was stained with quite a bit of blood, so he took it off and threw it into the washing machine. Then he grabbed so supplies and went out, cleaning the bloodstains Bai Xue had left along the way.
He already knew Bai Xue had a complex background; he didn’t expect her to be hunted as soon as she returned to the country. He internally sighed at his poor luck.
Although unsure whether saving her was right or wrong, a life was at stake. He was a doctor; saving lives was his duty, regardless of the person’s identity.
