Happy Spring Every Year

Chapter 142: Broken Bones

A golden light suddenly appeared, and shouts arose from all around.

Lu Yunzheng turned his head and looked over from the second-floor window, just in time to see Gu Xizhi with a ferocious expression, raising the hairpin and stabbing Shen Jiasui fiercely.

He was so frightened that his eyes widened and his heart was pounding, but he was not worried about Shen Jiasui, but about Gu Xizhi.

With Shen Jiansui's martial arts skills, Xizhi would have no chance of succeeding as long as she was even slightly prepared!

Without any hesitation, Lu Yunzheng supported himself on the windowsill with one hand and jumped down from the second floor!

But everything happened in a flash, so fast and so suddenly.

Shen Jiasui suddenly turned around and raised his hand to cover himself.

Ding--

The golden hairpin was swept to the ground, making a crisp sound.

Shen Jiasui was not stabbed, but the tip of the hairpin quickly and sharply scratched her palm, leaving a long wound that instantly tore her skin and flesh apart.

Blood flowed out, the red color was glaring, causing the people around to exclaim in surprise.

The next moment, a scream so shrill that it made one's scalp tingle was heard, but it was not from Shen Jiasui, but from Gu Xizhi.

When people are in danger, they always "can't control" themselves.

Shen Jiansui's left hand had been holding Gu Xizhi's right wrist. At this moment of life and death, she almost "unconsciously" used all her strength and clenched her fist tightly.

click-

The sound was so faint that no one heard it except Shen Jiasui and Gu Xizhi who were nearby.

Gu Xizhi only felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her wrist, and an indescribable pain exploded.

Her whole body trembled and she screamed instinctively. Her head was buzzing and she felt dizzy.

"Xizhi!"

A familiar voice came from far away.

Lu Yunzheng was terrified. He reached out and pushed Shen Jiasui away, and just in time, he hugged the fallen Gu Xizhi in his arms.

Shen Jiasui seemed "defenseless" and was pushed back repeatedly.

The crowd behind him hurriedly dodged, Shen Jiasui let out a low cry, and fell onto a stall nearby, with the lanterns scattering all over the floor with a crackling sound.

It was a happy Lantern Festival, but such a mess happened. People who came to watch the fun quickly gathered in circles.

Shen Jiasui's face turned pale with pain and he quickly raised his cut right hand.

Under the bright light, everyone saw blood flowing down Shen Jiasui's hand and dripping onto the ground, which was a shocking sight.

"what!"

Some people were so frightened that they covered their eyes and screamed.

At this time, Lu Yunzheng's eyes were full of Gu Xizhi, and he had no time to pay attention to Shen Jiasui.

Gu Xizhi's face was pale, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and there was no blood on her lips.

At this moment, her eyes were slightly closed and her look was empty. It was obvious that she had lost consciousness due to the severe pain.

Lu Yunzheng looked around in panic, not knowing where Gu Xizhi was injured.

"Xizhi! Xizhi!"

Suddenly, his eyes fixed.

Gu Xizhi's right hand was resting limply on her leg. Her wrist was swollen and red, and even looked... twisted.

Lu Yunzheng felt a sudden buzzing in his head and became stunned.

He had seen injuries like this before.

When a martial artist's hand is broken due to a fall from a horse or a collision, his wrist looks so shocking.

At this moment, Xizhi's wrist bones are probably shattered into pieces and there is no possibility of recovery.

Lu Yunzheng couldn't stop his shoulders from shaking. At this moment, thousands of thoughts flew through his mind, and suddenly he stopped at -

Xizhi can no longer hold a pen.

I can no longer...imitate other people's handwriting.

"Sui Sui!"

"sister!"

Two people pushed through the crowd and squeezed in. They were Jiang Xun and Shen Jiaheng who had hurried over.

When they saw Shen Jiasui sitting on the ground in a mess with his right hand bleeding, their faces changed at the same time.

Shen Jiaheng's eyes were red, and he quickly took out a handkerchief and covered Shen Jiansui's right hand tightly.

"Sister, are you okay? Does it hurt? Clinic! Where is the clinic?"

The onlookers shook their heads. Which clinic would be open on the night of the Lantern Festival?

Jiang Xun half-knelt beside him, leaning closer to Shen Jiasui. At this moment, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he had a cold and solemn expression that had never appeared before when facing Shen Jiasui.

While Shen Jiasui was comforting Shen Jiaheng, she glanced at Jiang Xun's expression. The moment their eyes met, she saw the disapproval in Jiang Xun's eyes.

Shen Jiasui understood that with Jiang Xun's keen insight, he must have seen through her plan.

She pursed her lips slightly, but before she could say anything, she saw Jiang Xun's brows relax, and he shook his head in a compromising manner towards her.

How could he possibly say that Sui Sui was not right?

Especially since she is so smart and decisive, and her actions are closely linked, she has thought so carefully and done so well.

He just...

"Shen Jiasui, how dare you be so cruel to Xizhi? You have such a vicious heart!"

At this time, Lu Yunzheng, who was not far away, suddenly shouted angrily. His eyes were red and he was staring at this side viciously.

Shen Jiasui's face froze, and he shrank back to Jiang Xun's side in fear. He took the opportunity to quietly signal Jiang Xun not to interfere, and said in a trembling voice:

"Lu Yunzheng, I don't know what you are talking about. Xizhi just suddenly attacked me!"

When these words came out, some onlookers nodded and said softly: "That's true."

Just now, they saw the two women holding hands and talking peacefully. For some reason, the woman behind them suddenly raised her hairpin and stabbed someone, which scared them.

When Shen Jiasui saw that there were other witnesses, he immediately felt even more "wronged" and said with red eyes:

"Why don't you ask why Xizhi suddenly attacked and hurt others? I don't know if my hand is injured and I can't move it anymore!"

When Lu Yunzheng saw Shen Jiasui shivering and her eyes reddened, he could tell she was pretending. He became even more furious and pointed at Gu Xizhi's right wrist and said,

"You have thick skin and tough flesh, so those superficial injuries are nothing. Xizhi's wrist bones are completely broken, and her right hand is crippled. Do you dare to say it wasn't intentional?"

Shen Jiasui immediately shook his head, raised his right hand which was still bloodied and wrapped in a handkerchief, and said angrily:

"My life was in danger just now, and I just relied on instinct to save myself. Xizhi wanted to attack me by surprise, so should I hold back?"

"By now, I'm afraid I would have been lying in a pool of blood!"

The spectators around nodded again after hearing this.

Gu Xizhi's wrist was indeed extremely swollen, but Shen Jiasui's palm was bloody and looked more frightening.

Seeing that everyone was leaning towards Shen Jiasui, Lu Yunzheng's face turned dark and gloomy, so he had to lower his head and call Gu Xizhi again.

"Xizhi? Xizhi?"

At this moment, Lu Yunzheng could hardly hide his heartache.

He wanted to take Xizhi to the hospital for treatment immediately, but if he left now, Shen Jiasui would have thousands of excuses to make excuses later, and Xizhi's injuries would be in vain.

Shen Jiasui repeatedly insisted that it was Xizhi who launched the sneak attack first, and he had indeed seen it just now.

But a smart person like Xizhi would never take such an extreme action in public for no reason.

Xizhi must have fallen into some trap set by Shen Jiasui!

Thinking of this, Lu Yunzheng raised his head and glanced at Shen Jiasui, but saw that her brows were frank and she seemed to be fearless.

At this time, Gu Xizhi groaned in pain, and after Lu Yunzheng called her several times, she finally came back to her senses.

"Xizhi!"

Gu Xizhi was still in a daze. The pain in her wrist kept coming like a tide, making her cry.

Lu Yunzheng hurriedly raised his hand to wipe Gu Xizhi's tears, and his eyes also became red.

"Xizhi, don't be afraid. I will take you to the best doctor right away and will definitely cure you!"

Lu Yunzheng's voice reached her ears word by word, and Gu Xizhi suddenly came back to her senses, her pupils shrinking.

"Yun Zheng——"

Her throat was slightly hoarse and her voice trembled.

Lu Yunzheng nodded in response hurriedly, and then asked, "Xizhi, what's going on? Did Shen Jiasui do something to you? Did she force you to do something?"

Gu Xizhi suddenly raised her eyes and saw Shen Jiasui sitting on the ground not far away, and turned to meet Shen Jiasui's meaningful gaze.

At this moment, she was terrified and hurried to look at Lu Yunzheng's expression.

Fortunately, the worry and heartache in Lu Yunzheng's eyes were real, and Shen Jiasui obviously had not had time to say those words.

This matter involved that person, and Shen Jiasui probably didn't dare to point it out in public. This gave her a chance to breathe.

If she waited until the crowd dispersed, she would be in real trouble.

Thinking of this, Gu Xizhi felt relieved and wanted to escape from this place immediately. She hurriedly shook her head and cried:

"Yun Zheng, I'm in so much pain, so much pain, can you take me to see a doctor first?"

Lu Yunzheng was stunned when he heard this.

Xizhi...are you just going to let it go like this?

what happened?

As soon as Lu Yunzheng raised his eyes to look at Shen Jiasui, Gu Xizhi cried out in pain and her tears flowed even more violently.

Seeing this, Lu Yunzheng no longer had the heart to pursue the matter. He quickly picked up Gu Xizhi and said harshly:

"Shen Jiasui, I won't let this go!"

Jiang Xun immediately raised his hand to support Shen Jiasui.

Shen Jiasui understood and immediately stood up, supported by Jiang Xun. He chased after him with an angry look on his face, and said quickly:

"A sneak attack and wounding someone, you want to leave now?"

However, Gu Xizhi was crying so hard at this moment that Lu Yunzheng didn't want to bother her anymore. He quickly squeezed into the crowd and shouted coldly:

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way, everyone!"

Seeing Lu Yunzheng's ferocious look, everyone avoided him.

"Don't go!"

Shen Jiasui shouted angrily, but the crowd was so crowded that he couldn't catch up.

Gu Xizhi's face was pale. Before leaving, she turned her head and stared at Shen Jiasui over Lu Yunzheng's shoulder.

She was still hesitating whether to use that backup plan, after all, her godfather and godmother were quite kind to her.

Today, it was Shen Jiasui who forced her to do so!

Being able to imitate handwriting is indeed a big advantage for her, but it can only be said to be icing on the cake.

I think with that person's ability, she can still find someone capable to replace her and imitate her godfather's handwriting.

The most deadly and unsolvable secret has always been the secret she has tried so hard to keep for so many years!

Shen Jiasui, you have plotted to harm me to this extent. I want to watch with my own eyes your entire Shen family destroyed and see you kneeling on the ground begging me!

......

Shen Jiasui met Gu Xizhi's gaze steadily, without dodging or avoiding.

She never thought that the "conclusive evidence" that Ah Xun mentioned in his previous life could be a mere handwritten letter imitated by Gu Xizhi.

There must be other means and secrets!

If everything could be solved by getting rid of Gu Xizhi, that would be simple.

The difficulty lies in the fact that, besides Gu Xizhi, there is no one who else has the "evidence" of the previous life and is waiting in the dark for an opportunity to act.

Instead of sitting and waiting for death with something stuck in my throat, I might as well take advantage of the fact that everything is still under my control, cripple Gu Xizhi's hand, and force her to follow the path of her previous life in advance!

If you want to destroy someone, you must first make him crazy.

She and A Xun had already prepared the jar and cast the net, waiting for Gu Xizhi and the people behind the scenes to come in obediently!
