Chapter 318: 318, Wanwan: It’s not my dog!

However, the anticipated warm embrace never came. She lunged forward into thin air instead, her knees hitting the ground with a “bang” that shook her to the core.

The grueling pain from her knees brought tears to Qiao Zixin’s eyes before she could fully register what had happened…

“Roar!”

The shrill, sustained screams intertwined with the barking of a dog filled the air, “Ahhhhhhhhh…”

Qiao Zixin had no idea where the black-haired wolfhound had sprung from, the agonizing pain in her ankle leading her to scream incessantly in pain.

**

Half an hour later, Su Yunrong and her husband rushed to the hospital.

The second they stepped into the corridor, they heard Qiao Zixin’s desperate screams, reminiscent of a pig being slaughtered.

In the surgical ward, a doctor was treating her wounds.

He was then forced to stop what he was doing, “Miss, if you continue to scream like this, I won’t be able to concentrate on treating your wound.”

Tears covered Qiao Zixin’s face, “But it hurts, waah…”

“But this way, you’re slowing down the process. The longer it takes, the longer your pain will last,” the doctor said helplessly.

Tears streamed down Qiao Zixin’s face.

How did she get so unlucky?

She was inexplicably bitten by a dog. On the way to the hospital, Huo Jingshen expressed concerns about possible infection and chose a nearby hospital. Somehow, that very hospital had just run out of anesthetic!

Each time they disinfected and rinsed the wound, it felt like her flesh was being sliced with a knife!

The pain was so intense that she wished she could amputate her own leg!

Seeing her finally quiet down, the doctor resumed rinsing the wound—until suddenly, the door was pushed open.

“Zixin!”

“Dad, Mom.” Upon seeing her parents, Qiao Zixin immediately burst into tears.

She had lived for over twenty years, yet she had never experienced such excruciating pain!

The couple hurried over. Taking one look at the wound, Su Yunrong was so scared that she almost fainted.

The wound on the ankle was a bloody mess, strikingly grotesque against her white skin.

“What happened, Wanwan?” Qiao Jianye asked.

Su Wanwan replied, “I just came downstairs and saw her being bitten by a dog. I’m not exactly sure about the details.”

Noticing the worry on Su Yunrong’s face, she kindly added, “The doctor just said it’s a superficial wound. As long as the wound is treated properly, everything should be fine once she gets a rabies vaccine tomorrow…”

“Fine?” Before she could finish, Su Yunrong interrupted her, “Her injury looks this severe and you’re calling it ‘fine’?”

Although their daughter was not particularly delicate, she had never suffered like this before!

What if it injured the ligaments? Her foot could be ruined, damaging her quality of life forever!

She turned around, sternly demanding, “Zixin, tell Mom, what really happened?”

How could Qiao Zixin dare to admit that she was trying to throw herself at Huo Jingshen, tripped over his cigar, fell on the ground, and her scream attracted that black wolfhound…

She could only lower her head and mumble, “I have no idea why that dog went crazy, it just suddenly rushed at me and bit my foot.”

“For no reason at all, why would a dog suddenly bite someone?” It was clear that Su Yunrong didn’t believe this.

Moreover, the owners were home. How could they let a guest be bitten like this?

As Qiao Zixin cried, she pleaded, “How should I know? I’m really scared of dogs, it’s not like I would provoke it.”

“Cousin?” Su Wanwan suddenly intervened, “Since when are you afraid of dogs?”

“…” Qiao Zixin was taken aback.

“I remember when we were kids, you had a dog. You once let it loose and it chased me for a long time. It even bit me.”

Qiao Zixin turned white, not expecting Su Wanwan to remember this incident, “Did… did that happen?”

“Don’t you remember?” Su Wanwan looked at her and chuckled, “I see, since it was me who was bitten, not you, I guess it’s easy to forget.”

Qiao Zixin:

She was speechless in her misery!

Hearing this, Su Yunrong was furious. “Wanwan, your cousin is seriously injured. Can you please stop making snide remarks? It’s easy for you to comment while standing there, isn’t it? Furthermore, didn’t she just bite your back that time? It was winter, you were wearing many layers, the bite didn’t even break the skin. Can you really compare that to your cousin’s situation now?”

Su Wanwan rolled her eyes.

Who was the one really standing here making thoughtless remarks?

“I should beaskingyou, why didn’t you restrain such a dangerous dog?” Su Yunrong asked again.

“It’s not my dog!” Su Wanwan felt inexplicably blamed, “I usually don’t dare to go near it, and I wasn’t there when the incident happened. Why are you blaming me?”

“Zixin was kind enough to deliver the property deed to you, but she ended up being bitten by your dog. Don’t you feel responsible at all?”

Su Yunrong had always disliked her niece. Upon hearing Su Wanwan mention the childhood dog-biting incident again, she immediately concluded that it was done deliberately.

Maybe she wanted to take revenge on Qiao Zixin on purpose!

“Enough, hasn’t Wanwan said she didn’t know about it?” Qiao Jianye couldn’t help but intervene.

“You shut up!” After shouting at her husband, Su Yunrong turned to look at Su Wanwan again, “Wanwan, your cousin might have been naive as a child, but it was just child’s play and she has been scolded by dad. How can you hold a grudge like this?”

“I hold a grudge?” Su Wanwan couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “Aunt, if I was really vengeful, I wouldn’t have let my husband bring her to the hospital just now. We could have just let her get infected and suffer!”

Enraged, Su Yunrong snapped, “You ungrateful…”

“I apologise.” A deep, cold masculine voice suddenly interrupted, cutting off Su Yunrong’s accusation.

However angry, seeing the handsome face of Huo Jingshen made her pause, suppressing her anger for now.

Huo Jingshen stood at the door, holding a receipt between his slender bony fingers, “I am to blame for this. I didn’t know Wanwan was coming home today, so I brought KO home.”

After speaking, he walked over, his narrow and deep black eyes looked at Qiao Zixin, “But KO usually never bites anyone, so I don’t consciously leash it. Perhaps it was due to Miss Qiao wearing a red dress tonight, the color is quite bright.”

Upon hearing this, Su Yunrong immediately looked at her daughter.

Only then did she notice that Qiao Zixin was dressed quite formally.

A red close-fitting dress, with a high slit and low neckline design, easily revealing large areas of skin and a deep cleavage.

Not to mention Qiao Zixin also had her hair done, a complete set of earrings, necklaces, bracelets…

However, due to the chaos just now, her originally delicate hairstyle was in disarray, and because she had cried too miserably, her eyeliner and eyelashes were all clumped together, her lipstick was patchy, tears streaked across her face, washing her foundation into rivulets…

Her face was a ghastly mess now.

Su Yunrong suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.

Having taught at Nancheng University for many years, she was conservative and old-fashioned, and detested girls dressing in such a flashy fashion!

She sternly scolded, “Zixin, weren’t you at work today? Why are you dressed like this?”

Flustered, Qiao Zixin quickly explained, “There was an outing in the company this afternoon. I went to replace Wanwan as soon as it was over. I didn’t have time to change my clothes.”

Su Yunrong reluctantly believed, “Anyway, do not ever wear such clothes again! It’s already this time of year, and you’re still dressing like this! Aren’t you afraid of catching a cold?”

“Miss Qiao seems to have other injuries.” Huo Jingshen spoke up again to remind.

Su Yunrong immediately checked her daughter’s body again, and then…

“What happened to your hand?”

Su Yunrong looked at her suspiciously, and soon, she asked again, “And your knees?”

Both knees had clearly visible bruises and swelling, and some areas even had broken skin.

Qiao Zixin tasted bitterness and could only continue to explain, “I fell when I was walking.”

“Qiao Zixin!” Su Yunrong suddenly grew quite angry, “You are absolutely…”

She was too embarrassed to utter the rest of the sentence.

This daughter liked having boyfriends, and had dated all sorts of men.

But Su Yunrong couldn’t believe that she even had such an interest in playing kinky games!

This burn, and the kneecap wounds…

It’s too obvious!

She was about to be pissed off!

But with so many outsiders present, it was really embarrassing to say anything about it.

You can’t wash your dirty linen in public!

How could Qiao Zixin know her mother would make such extravagant deductions?

She looked at the clear scar in Qiao Zixin’s right palm.

It seemed like something had burned her, and the wound was fresh.

Qiao Zixin quickly pulled her hand back, “I…I wasn’t careful, maybe…I got burned by something.”

Having just lied, and now with Huo Jingshen in the room, she was really guilty and didn’t have the nerve to explain further.

But her downcast and ashamed look, as if admitting guilt, made Su Yunrong feel even more certain about her suspicions.
