Chapter 172 Do you know you were wrong?
"Master, the matter has been completed."
The man who had just been talking to Li Binbin's mother drove to an apartment.
The decor has a slightly dated feel, and the "double happiness" characters pasted on the windows have faded and turned white. Despite its age, it's kept very clean.
He sat with his back turned, wearing a hat that covered half his face. The bright light from the television flickered in his eyes, as if hiding endless secrets.
A video without sound was playing on the TV, in which a person was laughing and reaching out to him.
He just stared at the person on the TV, as if she really existed. Suddenly his body trembled, and he pressed his hand to his abdomen to relieve the pain, but his eyes did not leave her. "Soon, I will be able to see you."
The man behind him skillfully fed him a glass of water and a pill.
After a long while, he recovered and was covered in sweat. "Speed up, dealing with them one by one is too slow."
The sound of high heels came from behind, and the voice was a little hurried: "Jinghui!"
"Miss Yu Jun." The man nodded respectfully and stepped aside to give the two of them some space.
Chi Jinghui took off his hat, and the light slowly illuminated his face. His once full cheeks were now flat and shriveled like deflated balloons, with an unhealthy yellow hue. His dark circles under his eyes showed that he hadn't had a proper rest in a long time.
"How did you come?"
“Someone is investigating me. I suspect I’ve been exposed. It won’t be long before you can’t hide either.”
"Then let's not hide it anymore. It's time to end this after all these years."
Chi Jinghui coughed twice, forcibly suppressing the metallic taste in his mouth, but a little blood still seeped from the corner of his lips.
"How are you? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Guo Yujun threw down her handbag, knelt down beside him, her eyes full of worry.
Guo Yujun is tall and slender with a dignified face. Time has not been able to erode her beauty, and a beauty mark under her right eye adds to her unique charm.
Has your condition worsened?
"I've been living like this for years, and I'm tired of it all." Chi Jinghui didn't look at Guo Yujun, but lay helplessly on the sofa with his eyes closed.
Guo Yujun got up, wanting to touch his face, but then timidly withdrew. The person on the TV was her best friend—Jiang Qiao.
A man who has been dead for over twenty years still holds a firm place in his heart.
In the hospital corridor, Li Binbin's mother paced back and forth, glancing at the ward from time to time. Two police officers stood at the door, which made her certain that Chi Chengyu had not left.
“Chi Chengyu, you are out of danger now. According to the law, you need to be discharged from the hospital immediately. The facility has a private room for you to recuperate.”
Without saying a word, the police officers took out shackles and bound his feet, with two officers standing on either side of him.
Chi Chengyu smirked arrogantly, "This young master can walk."
The fire alarm suddenly went off in the hospital lobby, and people queuing for outpatient services rushed to the door. People who were walking up the stairs also turned back, and the lobby was thrown into chaos.
As the police officer was supporting Chi Chengyu, a little child stumbled and fell heavily to the ground. The officer immediately ran over and helped the child up.
"Fire! Run!"
More and more people poured out from all directions, crowding the hall shoulder to shoulder. In an instant, everyone was scrambling for the exit, and there was chaos with insults and shoving.
Li Binbin's mother leaped over the crowd and moved in the opposite direction, gradually approaching Chi Chengyu.
The police officers who were restraining Chi Chengyu were also separated by the crowd. Chi Chengyu was wearing shackles, which affected his movement, so he moved slowly.
Chi Chengyu glanced at him, grinned wickedly, and said in a lip-reading tone, "Li Binbin, good riddance."
"This way, this way you can go."
One person in the crowd shouted loudly, pointing to a small door in the corner.
"Run!" The person who heard the voice seemed to have seized another opportunity and turned back.
Just as the police officer was about to pull Chi Chengyu away, several people rushed over and separated Chi Chengyu to the middle. The police officer was also pushed to the ground in the crowd.
Li Binbin's mother also walked up to Chi Chengyu at this moment.
"Do you realize your mistake?"
