Jing Lu and Mother Jing were both shocked.
“What kind of shit hospital is this? Aren’t hospitals supposed to have dual cables? How could the power go out?” Mother Jing mumbled, dissatisfied.
“The power will come back soon. Mum, just go ahead and call big sister first. I’m worried that Director Pan will get someone else for the role of the 4th female lead. If he does, I will be completely hopeless.”
“There’s no power, I can’t make a phone call now!”
Since houses now rarely used landline phones, usually one would just call the other person directly with a mobile phone.
Jing Lu was speechless.
“You stay right here. I’ll go around and ask. I think I saw lights on the other floors.”
With that said, Mother Jing walked out of the room, leaving Jing Lu alone in the room.
It was nothing horrifying since Jing Lu wasn’t afraid of ghosts anyways. However, as soon as Mother Jing walked out of the room, a group of men dressed in black suits entered her room.
Jing Lu was shocked. Just as she was about to scream, an object was stuffed into her mouth, one that was hard and extremely smelly.
Her eyes widened, hoping to see the other party’s face with the light from her phone. The other party then covered her in a rucksack and started beating her up without mercy.
When Mother Jing found the hospital management, she found out that it was a trip on the 5th floor of the hospital, and the power soon recovered.
However, when she returned to Jing Lu’s room, she was so angry that she almost passed out.
“Xiao Lu!”
Mother Jing screamed out loud, quickly removing the rucksack that was placed over Jing Lu’s head. Seeing how her daughter was lying motionlessly on the bed, Mother Jing cried out loud, instantly catching the attention of the doctor, nurses, and the other patients on the same floor.
When Mother Jing took out the colorful lump from Jing Lu’s mouth, she could smell the awful scent that was coming from it. Since the clothes were not fastened carefully, they scattered around, and she realized that these extremely smelly clothes were… All sorts of smelly socks!
Some of them had even turned hard!
Along with the holes that were found on the socks, it was obvious that these socks belonged to construction workers and hadn’t been washed for days.
“Yuck!”
This was not something that Mother Jing was used to. As she felt heated, a sour feeling came from her stomach and she puked uncontrollably.
When she was done vomiting, Jing Lu, who had gotten beaten up so badly that her face was as swollen as a pig’s head, was sent to the operating theater.
Mother Jing was so angry that she almost spit blood.
As she thought of how nice and obedient her daughter was, how she wouldn’t be mean to anyone and definitely didn’t have any enemies, even if she thought with her toes, it was still easily seen that no one but Jing Qian would have done something like this.
How could she do this to her daughter?!
Mother Jing picked up the landline phone and called Jing Qian’s number, but Jing Qian had already installed an automatic tracking device in her phone.
Unknown numbers would cause Jing Qian’s phone to ring but seeing that the call was made coming from a hospital, Jing Qian already knew who was calling her.
Without making any assumptions, Jing Qian was sure that it was them demanding the role. Therefore, she immediately ended the phone call and put the number on a blacklist.
She had been occupied for the past 2 days and the DNA paternity test was still with Kuan Yuchen, which is why she hadn’t gotten the time to challenge them. She would definitely get back at them slowly when she’s free.
Mother Jing hung up, now even angrier, and immediately called Father Jing for help.
When Father Jing heard that Jing Lu had been beaten up, he was heartbroken and immediately rushed to the hospital.
When Father Jing left, Jing Jie quickly ran onto the street and made a phone call to Jing Qian.
Jing Qian saw that it was another unknown number, one near the Jing household. After thinking about it, she decided to answer the call.
“Big sister.”
Jing Qian raised her eyebrows and asked, “Xiao Jie? What’s wrong?”
Jing Jie spent a long time preparing himself before spitting out a few words, “They are… Saying… That… You beat up… Jing Lu.”
