The security guard in the Wangjing internet celebrity apartment building actually recognized me!
I had no impression of him at all.
It wasn't until he introduced himself that I remembered. Wasn't he one of the hooligans who used to take advantage of my grandfather Du Wenzhong's illness and come to extort money from my shop?
The security team was really a mixed bag!
I didn't have time to think more. That guy had already walked up to me with an electric baton in his hand. The look in his eyes when he looked at me seemed a bit off!
"What do you want?"
I wasn't afraid of ghosts and gods, but I was scared of such hooligans because you never knew what they would do the next second and might hurt yourself or your friends.
I instinctively stood in front of Lu Xiyu.
"What am I doing?"
The security guard sneered, then suddenly leaned in and whispered, "Look at me!"
Caught off guard, I looked up. I saw that the security guard's pupils were pitch - black, and then suddenly, like cell division, two pupils appeared in each eye.
"Hehehe..."
I only heard a cold laugh in my ear. A powerful chill rushed straight into my body from the Baihui acupoint on the top of my head. I suddenly shivered and slowly turned around!
This wasn't the action I wanted to take!
I was horrified in my heart, but my body involuntarily walked towards Lu Xiyu.
"Xixi, I'm possessed!"
I tried my best to open my mouth to speak, but I couldn't even make a simple blinking motion. I watched helplessly as my own body approached Lu Xiyu as if nothing had happened and affectionately put an arm around her shoulder. Lu Xiyu didn't understand why a person she had just met for the first time would suddenly do such a thing. But her father, Lu Tianchang, had said that I was a good person.
So, although she was surprised, she still smiled and said, "Xiao He, what's wrong?"
Before she could finish her words, suddenly the hand on her shoulder forcefully pulled her down, and at the same time, I kicked at the back of her knee.
Under my sudden attack, how could Lu Xiyu stand still? She let out a soft scream and was knocked to the ground by me.
Everything happened in an instant. Lu Xiyu's husband had reacted quickly, but he only managed to hold her neck in time to prevent his wife's head from hitting the floor.
The moment Lu Xiyu fell, that chill suddenly left my body. I could control all my muscles again. I shouted, "120! Call an ambulance quickly!"
As I watched Lu Xiyu frown in pain, Ma Su, who was hiding behind the security guard, started screaming noisily along with me, "I said Du Xinghe would hurt Master Lu! She's bleeding! Master Lu is bleeding!"
Following her scream, I also saw a terrifying sight. A glaring red stain slowly seeped out from the light - green hem of Lu Xiyu's skirt!
Lu Xiyu's husband suddenly looked up. His deep - set eyes made me catch my breath.
If looks could kill, I'm afraid I would have been killed thousands of times by him!
He picked up Lu Xiyu and rushed out of the door. The security guards wanted to step forward to stop him, but he kicked them all flying one by one.
Uncle Zhao, a neighbor, had already called the emergency number. I could hear him reporting the address here to the operator incoherently. My mind was numb. The only thought in my head was... This was Master Lu Tianchang's most beloved daughter. If anything happened to her, I would never have the face to live in this world again!
I followed Lu Xiyu's husband and rushed out of the apartment building like the wind. He couldn't wait for the ambulance at all. He directly ran to a common Volkswagen business van with a Beijing license plate parked in the parking lot in front of the building and yanked open the door.
"You drive!"
After spitting out these three cold words, he got into the back seat of the car with his wife in his arms.
How could I drive? Du Wenzhong and I were both poor. We even had to think twice before taking a ride - hailing car...
"You're so stupid."
Suddenly, I heard a childish voice coming from the void beside me. I quickly turned my head. There was a distortion in the air, like the refraction of light caused by steam. A cute little kid jumped out of the distorted space. He was wearing a dark - red Zhongshan suit. It was Lu Pan, Lu Zhidao, whom I had seen on the ghost street in the underworld.
He glared at me. "Why aren't you getting in the car? I'll teach you how to drive!"
"You?!"
Although I didn't know why this strange - tempered Lord Lu would appear here, I still obediently got into the car. Lord Lu "whooshed" and sat on my lap. Immediately, I was like a marionette, automatically reaching out to turn the key to start the car, stepping on the clutch, shifting gears, and gently turning the steering wheel. The car smoothly got on the road.
"Beijing Hospital."
Without waiting for me to ask, Lu Xiyu's husband directly gave the instruction to the car's navigation system.
Lord Lu in front of me glanced at the navigation and quickly drove onto the right route.
"Just now... I didn't push her on purpose."
I didn't know how to explain. That cold feeling only lasted for a moment, like a sudden daze.
"If you did it on purpose, would you still be sitting here talking to me?"
Lu Xiyu's husband coldly snorted.
"Ugh..."
Lu Xiyu in the back seat couldn't help but let out a series of soft moans, which successfully stopped that ice - faced man from scolding me.
I glanced at the rear - view mirror and saw Lu Xiyu tightly clutching her husband's neck. Her beautiful face was covered in cold sweat from the pain.
"... I'm sorry."
Whether it was intentional or not, I felt really sad that I had caused such an injury to a friend I had just met.
"It's not your fault..."
Lu Xiyu forced a smile. "... You... there were a lot of eyes behind you at that time... I thought... you were possessed by an evil god..."
She was in so much pain that her words were fragmented.
"A... a lot of eyes?"
I was shocked. Only then did I remember the pupils in the security guard's eyes that had changed from two to four.
"You're so stupid. Evil gods can evolve too!"
Lord Lu, who was sitting in front of me driving the car seriously, was also observing Lu Xiyu's expression through the rear - view mirror, but he was talking to me. "I've checked. That evil god causes trouble every hundred years. It is suppressed by the thunder tribulation and all its clones are destroyed. But its stubborn spirit has been residing on a Buddha statue thousands of years ago. As long as there's a chance, it will multiply rapidly like mold!"
"Xiao Liu, at a time like this, you still have the heart to talk about evil gods?"
Lu Xiyu's husband sitting in the back suddenly interrupted him.
"It doesn't matter. I'm here guarding. Nothing will happen."
There was a confident smile on Lord Lu's childish face.
I was a bit confused. When did Lu Pan take on the job of a midwife?
As we were talking, the car had already arrived at Beijing Hospital. As soon as we opened the car door, the medical staff ran over like the wind. They carried Lu Xiyu onto a stretcher and rushed her into the delivery room.
Lu Xiyu's husband and I were both waiting at the door. Only the little Lord Lu trotted all the way and rushed in with the stretcher.
"What are you doing?!"
I reached out my hand to stop him. Unexpectedly, the little Lord Lu suddenly turned back, pursed his lips at me, and said, "I'm about to be born. There must be evil demons coming to harm me. Please help my father. Don't let him only care about the mother and forget about the baby..."
