Revenge Sevenfold-Chapter 159 Thank You, Hui Yin

Hui Yin jumped when she heard that. The officer behind the desk also abruptly stood up.

Without thinking, Hui Yin rushed towards the side door. The police officer behind the desk shouted for her to stop, but how could she still heed his warning? If anything happened to him, it would be her fault!

Mid-step, something hard slammed against her nose and the ground beneath her feet disappeared. In the space of a blink, they were already out of the police station.

Hui Yin sucked in a breath of cold air. Her hands were coated with red. It came from the shoulder of the man who was carrying her, steadily increasing with each steady heave of his chest.

"Let me down!" Hui Yin cried out to Lu Shen. "You're bleeding!"

Lu Shen gave her a deep glance and icily said, "The police are bad people."

She didn't argue. She took him to them because Lu Shen said that the triad wasn't backing the culprit. Even if Lu Shen had struggled against them or tried to escape, no matter what, they shouldn't have tried to shoot him. Could the Lu Shen in the present time be mistaken? Was the triad protecting the culprit? If this was true, then her mission was doomed to fail from the start.

"First, we need to go back to the apartment to get my money and my phone." Hui Yin tried to think clearly despite her panic. "I don't have much, but it'll have to do. We need to run away first, so that we can contact your parents..."

The police would surely give chase, and Hui Yin was certain that they didn't contact the Lus. They were her only hope. In her previous life, they were the ones who found Lu Shen and discovered the treatment for his temporary amnesia.

Lu Shen didn't continue running on a straight line but instead zigzagged over backyards and alleys, trees and parked cars. Hui Yin was amazed at his sense of direction. He only went to her apartment once, yet he already memorized it?

But this amazement didn't last long. His blood had nearly soaked his entire shirt. Hui Yin had hoped it was merely a graze and not a bullet wound, but a graze wouldn't make him bleed this much. It was definitely the latter!

"Lu Shen, let me down! I can run on my own!"

Shouldn't she be the one supporting him? Why was he carrying her?

But Lu Shen didn't listen to her demand.

He continued to crush her to his chest, his arms so tight around her that she could barely breathe. Lu Shen was a quick learner. Letting her leave him once was fine, but letting her leave him again for the second time...hmph, fat chance! His trust for this little bunny had been totally eradicated. They looked cute and innocent, but they would flee the second you looked away. To stamp out all traces of misbehavior, he needed to chomp on her fur and not let go!

Because he was carrying Hui Yin, her body covered his bloody shirt. Luckily, no one stopped them.

Lu Shen's breathing became heavier with each step, and by the time they got to her apartment, he collapsed on the doorway and looked like he was about to pass out.

Hui Yin had no time to take care of him. Opening her backpack, she stuffed several clothes inside, including her wallet, some canned food, a water bottle, and her phone. Biting her lip, she also included a box of sanitary napkins.

Hui Yin crouched down beside Lu Shen and threw his arm over her shoulders.

"We need to leave, the police can easily ask the people around here where I stay. They also have a record for the addresses of the actors and the filming crew." At his grim look, she added, "But don't worry, I have an idea of where we could go."

Lu Shen gritted his teeth from the pain and nodded. His lips were bloodless.

Hui Yin didn't take the main road either. There were always plenty of space behind the houses in a rural village, and Hui Yin had known some of the shortcuts in her brief stay here.

Soon, the two of them arrived in front of a dilapidated cottage in a remote area. It was hidden inside a small forest, and there were some furnitures made of bamboo inside. There were also plenty of stray kittens.

It was dirty and small, but there was an iron water pump on the back.

Hui Yin put Lu Shen down on the bamboo bed and took out her water bottle. She could clean his wound now, but they would be out of water afterwards.

So Hui Yin poured it down the iron water pump. There was a rhythmic 'glug glug glug' sound before Hui Yin tried moving the handle. A stream of brown water came out, but it slowly cleared and clean water gushed towards the tall weeds on the ground.

Hui Yin hurriedly filled her empty water bottle. It was fortunate that Lu Shen was still awake when she came back.

"We need to remove your shirt or it'll stick to your skin," she said, and he nodded obediently. Lu Shen hissed in a low voice when he tried lifting his arm and agitated his wounded shoulder, but Hui Yin decisively continued to help him remove his shirt.

Once his upper body was exposed, Hui Yin was aghast.

There was only a small deep hole where the bullet had gone in, but it looked awful. She quickly dampened one of her clothes with water and wiped him clean.

"Doesn't hurt," he comforted her when he saw her expression. But then he immediately took back his words and said, "It hurts so much. You shouldn't have left me."

Hui Yin glared at him. I already feel guilty, okay! Do you have to push the sword deeper?

She dressed his wound using a sanitary napkin. Hui Yin saw from a television show that this was a good bandage for excessive hemorrhages. Ignoring Lu Shen's discomfort, she made him elevate his left arm to reduce the swelling.

"Keep applying pressure." Hui Yin made his other hand press gently on his bullet wound. "If only you didn't lose your memories, those small fries wouldn't have dared to do this..."

Lu Shen's response to her words was a blank look. Hui Yin sighed. Indeed, if a king lost his crown, all he would encounter were endless assassination attempts coming from those who envied his power. It was better to be a peasant commoner. What's eating a lifetime's worth of gruel when you can keep your head?

Hui Yin gave him another shirt and helped him put it on. After she sat back on the bamboo bed, Lu Shen beamed at her.

"Thank you, Hui Yin."

Hui Yin was nearly blinded by his genuine smile. It was not a small quirk of his lips that barely qualified, but a full, real smile that showed his white teeth. He looked adorable.

"You're welcome," Hui Yin replied after a small pause.

She took out her phone and started dialling his parents' number. It would probably take a while before they could rescue them. Hui Yin didn't want to waste time, which prompted her decision to go directly to the police so that they could take custody of Lu Shen. If only she'd known that they were villains, she would have contacted his parents first.

While the phone was ringing, Hui Yin peeked at Lu Shen. His eyes were closed, but his left hand had stopped hanging in the air for elevation and was clutching her clothes instead.

Despite the pain, his expression looked content.

Hui Yin was a bit sad about this. If only he hadn't changed, she wouldn't have changed too.

Why couldn't he remain as Fai?
