Mr Fu, I Really Love You - Chapter 1317
Chapter 1317: Death to Prove My innocence
With Bai Jinyu performing the surgery himself… Fu Huai’an felt assured.
However, what had exactly happened?
Fu Huai’an’s face tensed up as he walked towards the operating room. Xu Wanwan followed by Fu Huai’an’s side and continued, “The driver and Lu Jinnan’s assistant are fine. They’re both wearing seatbelts, so their injuries are all superficial. Lu Jinnan’s assistant is standing guard outside the operating room now.”
When Fu Huai’an and the others came out of the elevator, they saw Lu Jinnan’s assistant, who was anxiously pacing back and forth at the entrance of the operating room. Cai Jingyao was also there, sitting on the long bench, shaking.
Lu Jinnan’s assistant had sharp eyes. When he saw Fu Huai’an and Little Lu, he promptly ran in their direction despite it being strenuous for him to run due to his legs’ injuries. It was as if he had seen his pillar of support. His voice slightly trembled as he called out to them, “Chairman Fu! Little Lu…”
Hearing the sound, Cai Jingyao, who was wiping her tears with a tissue, also stood up. She looked in Fu Huai’an’s direction cautiously, her tears falling like strings of broken pearls.
“Chairman Fu, President Lu is…” The assistant sounded a little choked up.
He was also inside the car when the accident happened. He clearly saw the process of Lu Jinnan getting injured, and now that he thought about it, his hair stood on end.
Cai Jingyao, who was still standing where she was, saw this as her opportunity to get close to Fu Huai’an. Without thinking, she walked towards Fu Huai’an, crying…
Her few attempts to approach Fu Huai’an at the filming set were to no avail because so many people had guarded Fu Huai’an at that time. Seeing that this time around, there was only Little Lu by Fu Huai’an’s side, Cai Jingyao knew she had to seize the opportunity.
She was the best at controlling her expression, trying her best to make a tearful expression as she walked towards Fu Huai’an.
Little Lu saw Cai Jingyao’s actions from the corner of his eye. He moved to Fu Huai’an’s side, prepared to stop the woman at any moment.
“Have you called the cops?” Fu Huai’an asked.
Lu Jinnan’s assistant nodded. “Yes, the driver seems to have failed the breathalyzer test. He’s currently having his blood drawn downstairs to test his blood alcohol content.”
Although it was confirmed that the driver was driving under the influence, it was only because Cai Jingyao had suddenly rushed out in front of the car that the driver turned the steering wheel and crashed into another vehicle…
“Mr. Fu…” Cai Jingyao called out to Fu Huai’an.
Fu Huai’an didn’t even look at Cai Jingyao as he said to Lu Jinnan’s assistant, “I also heard the accident happened because someone had suddenly rushed out to block the car. The police didn’t take that person away?”
“Yes, it was this Miss Cai over here. The police did take her away, but now she’s here again. I’m not sure what exactly happened,” Lu Jinnan’s assistant said.
When Cai Jingyao heard this, she quickly moved closer to Fu Huai’an, but Little Lu blocked her way. “Mr. Fu, I wanted to stop Brother Jinnan’s car because I wanted to clear up a misunderstanding… That day, I was forcibly dragged into the car by the assistant director of the production crew. I… I had no choice. I was just a nobody in the filming set! But I’m afraid Brother Jinnan might get the wrong idea. I can’t let Brother Jinnan misunderstand me. I still have to do my best to get Xiao Bei back, so… so I…”
Cai Jingyao’s tears rolled down her cheeks. “I know it’s my fault… I shouldn’t have rushed out recklessly and caused Brother Jinnan to be in this state. I originally wanted to use this… extreme method to prove my innocence! I was just desperate… I didn’t know what else to do!”
Cai Jingyao had stopped Lu Jinnan because she wanted to explain things in such a manner. Then she could ask Lu Jinnan to do her a favor and ask the investor, Fu Huai’an, to not have the assistant director harass her again.
But she hadn’t expected that it would cause Lu Jinnan to get into a car accident. However, now that she had the chance to see Fu Huai’an… Cai Jingyao felt that Lu Jinnan’s accident wasn’t a bad thing after all.
“Brother Jinnan didn’t want to listen to my explanation, so I really had no choice!” Cai Jingyao’s tear-stained face even moved the few onlookers, who were waiting outside the operating room for their loved ones.
Fu Huai’an’s expression remained the same, and his eyes were so deep that Cai Jingyao couldn’t see through them.
Perhaps because of Fu Huai’an’s tall stature, he looked even more prominent as he stood in the hospital’s brightly lit corridor. The rays from the white lights accentuated his deep-set facial features as his dark eyes shifted towards Cai Jingyao. But the expression in his eyes… didn’t have the pity or sympathy Cai Jingyao had expected.
Fu Huai’an’s gaze was so calm that it didn’t reveal a hint of emotion. He looked at Cai Jingyao dispassionately, as if he was looking at an inanimate object.
Cai Jingyao was the type of girl who would make herself look beautiful while crying, and she was really good at it. She would let out her crocodile tears in such a way that would trigger protective reactions in many men. Even a single tear from a beauty would make one’s heart ache, let alone a girl like Cai Jingyao, who could bring out her tears to the max.
However, Fu Huai’an’s expression made Cai Jingyao feel that… her tears had no effect on him. She could tell that he wasn’t even faking it; he really didn’t feel anything.
Compared to Fu Huai’an’s skills and years of accumulated experience, Cai Jingyao’s manipulative skills were inferior. She was unable to see through Fu Huai’an’s thoughts. The depth in his eyes was so profound that it sent chills down her spine.
Never mind Cai Jingyao, even Lin Nuan, the most clever one amongst the four of them, couldn’t see through Fu Huai’an when she had first come into contact with him, much less Cai Jingyao.
“Since Miss Cai said she wants to prove her innocence with her death, why doesn’t she just go and do so? Go on, a lot of us are watching!”
Lu Jinnan’s personal assistant, who had received the news and rushed to the hospital, spoke up. He then walked to Fu Huai’an’s side and greeted him respectfully. “Chairman Fu!”
Fu Huai’an didn’t say anything to Cai Jingyao. He merely said to Lu Jinnan’s personal assistant, “Deal with this matter!”
Lu Jinnan’s personal assistant was one of Gu Qingcheng’s men. Although he wasn’t a member of those elite teams, Gu Qingcheng had secretly arranged for him to protect Lu Jinnan. Only Fu Huai’an knew about this.
“Don’t worry, Chairman Fu!” Lu Jinnan’s personal assistant replied.
Cai Jingyao was rendered speechless by Lu Jinnan’s personal assistant’s words. She watched as Fu Huai’an walked away, but it was as if something was still lodged in her throat. She couldn’t just give up.
She mustered up the greatest courage in her life and called out to Fu Huai’an, “Mr. Fu, please believe me! I really didn’t do it on purpose! I used to… I was Lin Nuan’s good friend. Xiaonian is pregnant now, so how could I really do something to hurt Brother Jinnan? You must believe me!”
Fu Huai’an halted in his steps and turned around. This was probably the first time Fu Huai’an showed any emotions as he gave Cai Jingyao a serious look.
Cai Jingyao suddenly felt nervous. She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to perform well enough… She wanted to put up a good front, but she realized that she couldn’t move under Fu Huai’an’s deep gaze…
“My wife has never said that she has a friend like you…”
