Crimson Instinct

Chapter 243: Who needs evidence?

Xue Xiying's wrist bone was completely broken, yet Rodey had held onto her wrist so tightly as if he wanted to separate the wrist from her hand.

The nurses watched the scene unfold in utter shock but sensing the dangerous and feral aura around him; nobody could gather the courage to stop him.

One of the nurses still came forward, but Rodey's sinister gaze at her immediately made her retreat back.

Xue Xiying cowered in fear and panic. She clearly remembered how he had barged into the house, grabbed Jingjing, tortured her, and then took her away.

And then his kick in her stomach. That was so painful and excruciating that she could hardly walk for the last two days. Every step was simply agonizing and torture. Even now, she felt mild tremors of pain shooting up in her muscles.

"Ahhh...ahhhmy handl-let go" Tears rimmed in her eyes.

Ying Yue was still rooted in her spot. She couldn't believe her eyes that she was watching Rodey in front of her. His abdomen was all stitched up with sutures and bandages wrapped around his waist.

How couldn't it be painful to get up and walk even this far when he had just woken up?

Her lips trembled, and she stared at him in a daze.

Rodey sneered at Xue Xiying. "I thought you wouldn't have the face to show yourself, but man, you are one shameless bitch. Like mother, Like daughter aye?"

The doctor rushed out, "Sir, please! How can you walk in this condition? Your wounds will open up."

Rodey was really a handful. He slowly woke up to consciousness but immediately put his guard up as he saw strangers around him.

But then he relaxed a bit, knowing that it was a hospital.

The doctor was stunned. "This is so shocking. We didn't expect you would wake up so soon."

The doctor also noticed how his mind immediately got alert as he analyzed his surroundings and relaxed as he must have figured that there wasn't any threat.

This is the first time in my career that I saw a patient wake up so soon and even be able to use his analytical abilities in all that dizziness. He is one tough guy.

Rodey's ears twitched as he heard some noises outside. There was yelling and argument and cursing. 

But he recognized a certain someone's soft voice immediately. 

Rodey narrowed his eyes and got up. Pain shot up in his abdomen, but he didn't bother.

The doctor and the nurse were stupefied.

"Sir! What are you doing? You cannot move in this state."

Rodey ignored them and pulled out the syringes and tubes inserted into his arm, making them even more horrified.

They tried to stop him, but Rodey grabbed the doctor's collar instead and growled, "Hey. You don't say what I should do and what I shouldn't. I decide what I want. If you don't want me to strangle you to death, then fuck off."

"B-but"

Rodey threw him away and walked outside.

At present, the doctor was still a little traumatized by what happened, but it was his responsibility to stop his patient.

"Sir, please...don't make things difficult. You need to rest."

Rodey smiled. "I see you didn't get my message earlier, doc. After her, I will deal with you."

The doctor shuddered.

Ying Yue snapped out of her stupor and softly touched his arm. "Rodey"

He looked down at her and squinted her gaze. He quickly took a look over her injuries and noticed that she got her treatment.

The injuries looked a little better now, and his tensed brows eased up.

But still, she looked like she lost a lot of weight in just a few hours, and that didn't sit well with him. 

He dangerously narrowed his eyes at her. "Why are you so thin?"

Ying Yue was dumbfounded.

That is the first question he wants to ask me?

"I...I"

She didn't know how to answer.

Ying Lan said, "She was really worried about you the whole time. She said she wouldn't be relaxed until you safely wake up. I did urge her to eat a little, but she said she wasn't hungry at all."

Ying Yue's face flushed in embarrassment.

Mom...why did you say that to him? She internally cried.

Rodey shook off Xue Xiying's wrist and threw her away. She fell on the floor with a thud.

"Ahhhh"

The other nurses went to help, but Rodey sharply cut off their helpful intentions. "Help her, and you die."

He seriously meant it, so the nurses promptly backed away.

Rodey pinched Yue's chin and forced her to look at him.

Ying Lan coughed.

The scene looked like a movie where the hero used a dominating stance on his girlfriend. It was dangerous but cool.

So she couldn't help but squeal a little like a teenager.

No, no. Yue is my daughter. I shouldn't be fangirling now.

Rodey threateningly said, "When did I need you to worry and go on a hunger strike for me? Did I tell you to do it?"

It looked like Rodey's pressure on her chin was agonizing, but she didn't feel any pain at all, yet the grip seemed so tight and hurtful.

"You were in a critical condition."

"So? Even if I had died, it wouldn't have anything to do with your food. And I don't need such baseless worries. Look at you. It seems so easy to break your body like a stick. Get some meat in there, so it becomes harder."

"I am fine," she softly said.

"Do you really want to see what I do when I have to get things done in MY way?"

She kept quiet.

Rodey let her chin off. "Don't come near me until you have gained 5 kgs of weight. I will throw you out."

"..."

Rodey then looked down at Xue Xiying, lying pathetically on the floor. She jolted back in fear.

He smiled mockingly. "I heard you say something about evidence. And I am like; you are so stupid. Who needs evidence when your daughter will confess herself? I just need to spice things up a notch on her already wounded body, and she will start talking like a parrot."
