Chapter 19 Jay

Author: A Hei Hei

Serena's tense nerves were completely broken at this moment. She gasped and struggled violently, and then was supported by a pair of warm big hands.

"It's okay, it's okay now." Lin Boting held her in his arms and comforted her, "I'll untie the cable tie right away, and we'll go to the hospital right away. The police are here, Serena."

Serena rested her head on his chest and hummed. With his comfort, she tried to calm down, but her stress reaction was so strong that she had a hard time.

In addition to Lin Boting, a group of armed police officers also rushed into the room. Lao Da and Ajie had no ability to resist at all and were subdued in minutes.

Ajie shouted, "Damn, you dare to arrest us, do you know who is behind us?"

The boss yelled, "Shut up!"

"Boss, tell them and scare them to death!"

Ajie straightened his neck and was about to announce this scary name when he was kicked in the face.

ones who kicked him were not police boots but leather shoes, which were hand-made from a niche luxury brand . The price was illogically high. There were only 99 pairs of them in the world, and only a handful of people could be kicked by these shoes. In a way, Ajie was honored.

He flew out with honor and hit his head on a glass cabinet. The cabinet door cracked and the glass shattered all over the floor. He fainted immediately.

leading police officer hissed , "You better be careful! What if you die?"

The owner of the leather shoes kicked again as if he hadn't heard anything, and the tip of the shoe hit the boss's crotch. He screamed and curled up. The man then brushed off his trouser legs and said, "It's a kind-hearted citizen who is brave enough to do something righteous. Captain Li will definitely understand."

This extremely arrogant male voice made Serena tremble. Lin Boting thought that she was hurt by the process of untying the cable tie, so he hurriedly said, "Serena, just bear with it for a while, it will be fine soon."

Snap! With a snap of the scissors, the last cable tie was untied.

Serena fell to the side limply, and Lin Boting reached out hastily, not expecting someone to have gotten there first.

James put one hand under Serena's legs and the other hand around her waist . With a little force, he hugged her into his arms, but Serena resisted subconsciously, causing James to sway twice. He knelt on one knee on the ground and called out anxiously, "Serena, it's me!"

Serena then focused her gaze on James' face. She stared at him for a while as if she didn't know him, and tears suddenly flowed down her face.

" Forrest , Ja ..." She choked and changed the subject, "Mr. Forrest."

After surviving the disaster, the thinly dressed woman was trembling and crying, with a bruised face and a confused mind. She almost didn't recognize him, but she still remembered to call him Mr. Forrest.

James looked sinister , "Let's go to the hospital."

He took the blanket handed to him by the person next to him, wrapped Serena tightly from head to toe and hugged her again. Serena grabbed his collar and looked back blankly, "Bai Ting."

James then reluctantly glanced at the man who was left aside.

Lin Boting only looked at Serena and said gently, "Don't delay, go to the hospital immediately."

Serena said obediently, "Okay, thank you."

Before Lin Boting could even say "thank you" he was already carried out the door by James.

There is always a faint scent of fir in James' arms, which is his usual perfume. It is said that he has only used this one since he was a teenager. When the perfume manufacturer stopped production, he bought it back and remade it, and accidentally turned it into a listed brand. This became his first pot of gold and also made him famous at a young age.

William said that James has been like this since he was a child. He is very persistent in what he likes. Even if he dies, he must be brought back to life and he will never miss him.

Five years ago, Serena's favorite thing to do was to snuggle in his arms, eat chips and watch TV.

James would complain that her potato chip crumbs were all over him, and Serena would whine and say she would dare to do it again next time, so next time, he would still let her stay in the room.

In the following three years, the two of them no longer had such warm moments.

Serena's hands were tightly grasping James's collar, and she refused to let go no matter how the nurse in the ambulance tried to persuade her. Her consciousness had already become drowsy, and the doctor on board explained that it was a normal stress response, and Mr. Forrest let her hold on if he didn't mind.

Mr. Forrest didn't mind, he hugged the man tightly in his arms, his face livid.

Such a major incident rarely happens in the community. The area was packed with people inside and outside. Sun Heng squeezed into the ambulance and closed the door.

"Mr. Shen, there are too many people watching. Do you want to deal with it?"

The ambulance was already on the road. James looked out the window and said, "You decide."

The nearest hospital was the Puhui branch. Serena's injuries were mostly superficial, except for some minor internal bleeding from the kick in the abdomen that required 24 hours of observation. James followed her like a big shot with his hands in his pockets until she was admitted to the VIP ward.

Lin Boting was different. He was familiar with the procedure and could communicate fluently with the doctor. He could also make some good suggestions in a timely manner. The conversation went on very actively and James' face turned even more gloomy.

The doctor wanted to do a more detailed examination and sent the two out. James glanced at Lin Boting and took the initiative to greet him.

"Dr. Lin, long time no see. When did you return to China? Why didn't you tell me? I'll ask someone to pick you up."

"You are welcome, Mr. Forrest."

"You're so cold, at least I saw you off when you left."

A cold light flashed under Lin Boting's glasses, "Don't worry, Mr. Forrest, I remember everything I should remember."

"That's good." James nodded. "My words are always valid. Dr. Lin should check his conscience more in the future."

Lin Boting turned his head and said , "Mr. Forrest, I also have something to tell you. Compared to me, you should check your conscience more."

James looked him in the eye without hesitation. The corridor of the VIP ward was clean and tidy, with only the faint smell of gunpowder smoke, which seemed to be on the verge of breaking out at any moment.

"Brother James!"

A sweet female voice interrupted the stalemate in time. Chen Xiaoyu rushed over as soon as she got out of the elevator, running in small steps. If it weren't for James's scary expression, she would have jumped into his arms.

But now she only dared to say timidly, "I heard about it. How is Sister Serena?"

James frowned, "Where did you hear that?"

Chen Xiaoyu choked and looked back guiltily. Sun Heng followed behind her with an embarrassed look on his face, "Ms. Chen, Miss Xie is still checking."

"Everything is alright?"

"fine."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the ward opened, and the doctor walked out with a nurse. Several people immediately surrounded them.

"Doctor Lin, Mr. Forrest, don't worry. You can leave tomorrow after staying here for one night. Rest well when you go back and don't do high-intensity exercise. You'll be fine."

"When will she wake up?"

"Mr. Forrest, it's hard to say. You have to know that people consume a lot of energy when they go through a violent stimulation. She is very tired, but she was conscious when I checked her just now. She should be fine soon."

Chen Xiaoyu stood on tiptoe to look back and asked anxiously, "Can I go see Sister Serena?"

The doctor was about to answer, but Lin Boting spoke first, "She needs to rest now, Mr. Forrest, take your..." He looked at Chen Xiaoyu, who was very smart, "fiancée!"

"Oh, take your little fiancée back first. The hospital will notify you if anything happens."

James scowled, "Who are you to give me orders?"

Lin Boting said calmly, "Your sister-in-law's friend."

The temperature dropped ten degrees in an instant.

Chen Xiaoyu looked around and said with a smile, "So it's Sister Serena's friend, Brother James, let's not disturb her then. Sister Serena must really need this friend at this time!"

She pronounced the word "friend" with full meaning, twisted her waist and acted coquettishly, showing a strong sense of not wanting to be a light bulb.

James ignored the two of them and walked to the bedside. The woman on the bed had her eyes closed and her eyelashes trembling slightly. She was trying very hard to pretend to be asleep . He just stared at her without saying a word, and her long eyelashes trembled even more violently.

After a moment, James sneered, "Yeah, sister-in-law must really need this friend. Xiaoyu, don't you still need to check in at the restaurant? Let's go."

Chen Xiaoyu hummed sweetly, ran to James and held his arm, "You came so late last night that the restaurant was closed. Don't run around tonight!"

"Listen to you."

    Before leaving, James paused and didn't look back.“Lin Boting, has my elder brother ever told you that I have no conscience?”This incoherent remark certainly aroused Chen Xiaoyu's suspicion, but James did not explain. Lin Boting watched his back disappear and turned around after a while.The ward returned to peace. He quietly sat down beside the bed and said to the person on the bed, "They're gone. You can wake up now."Serena opened her eyes and touched her nose sheepishly, "Is it that obvious?""It's not obvious. He pretends well. But I'm a doctor. I can tell whether he's awake or not."Lin Boting helped her sit up, and Serena said solemnly, "Thank you!""I've thanked you before, and I accept it.""This thank you is for helping me send them away."Lin Boting smiled and said , "I know that you and James have been at odds for a long time."

"More than five months. He was in a coma for one month, and then spent the next four months recovering. He is a stubborn person. He refused to let anyone accompany him after he woke up. It would have been better for him to lie down for that month.

Not for myself or the Meng family, but for you, I feel that I shouldn't go back on my words. I said it bluntly, but my heart was good, James.""You've always been kind."James showed a look of loss. "Three years ago, in front of my eldest brother's ward, you said the same thing. You said that you were just visiting with good intentions and advised him to focus on his treatment, but he asked you to accompany him to his last journey. You refused, and he vomited blood out of anger."When talking about the past, Meng Jinyun was also moved."I regretted it afterwards.
