Chapter 90. She is so unlucky

During the years Wen Li spent abroad, he witnessed many robberies by biker gangs. He even saw innocent passers-by being stabbed by biker gangs until their intestines were spilled out and then dragged for hundreds of meters behind a motorcycle.

She regretted not giving the bag away and closed her eyes in despair.

The expected pain did not come. She fell into a solid embrace. When she fell to the ground, Huo Yuanchen even lifted her up and used his flesh as a cushion for her.

When he got up from the ground, the biker gang was nowhere to be seen.

Huo Yuanchen held her tightly in his arms. Because they were so close, she could clearly hear his thumping heartbeat. When she raised her head, her eyes met his. He frowned deeply and asked her quickly and anxiously , "Is anything wrong?"

Wen Li confirmed that there was no pain on her body, then shook his head and said, "No, I'm fine."

Huo Yuanchen's face darkened, and he asked her in a bad tone, "You're not afraid of the biker gang, is that bag important to you?"

Wen Li was still in shock. He sat on the ground in a panic, sorted out his thoughts, and tried to explain to him, "The bag is not expensive, but it contains my passport and a large amount of cash I exchanged before leaving the country. I just thought about this and tried to snatch the bag from them."

Huo Yuanchen criticized her with an even uglier expression, "The money is lost, so what? If you follow me out, will I let you live on the streets? Although the passport is important, it is nothing compared to your life."

Wen Li knew that what he said was right. She had indeed misjudged what had happened just now. She did not argue with him, but was a little anxious and asked him, "What should I do now? They took my passport away, and I will never be able to get it back. Without my passport, I will become a person without an identity and cannot go anywhere. Not to mention going to find my brother, I am afraid that even returning home will be a problem."

Seeing her pale face, Huo Yuanchen knew that she was frightened, so he stopped criticizing her, pulled her up from the ground, and said, "Let's go back to the hotel first."

Wen Li felt very uncomfortable during the whole journey. When she thought that her passport was unlikely to be found, she felt desperate and wanted to cry. Adding the money in her bag, she felt even more uncomfortable.

She didn't know why her brother disappeared, but she guessed that since he was still alive but hadn't contacted his family for so long, he was in a very dangerous situation. Whether it was electronic payment or credit card payment, there was a risk of exposing his whereabouts, so she had already thought about it. If she could find her brother this time, whether he was willing to go back with her or not, she had to ensure his safety first and then leave money for him.

If she could provide him with food and clothing, her trip would be worthwhile. The money in the bag was exchanged with her remaining savings before she went abroad. She didn't expect that before she went to find her brother, the money would be given to those damned motorcycle gangs.

Those bastards must be counting their money and laughing at this, laughing at this idiot Oriental woman who gave them a large sum of money.

Maybe she was too silent during the whole journey. When she got off the car, Huo Yuanchen comforted her and said, "I have called the police. The police will handle it."

Wen Li said "hmm" in a listless manner, not holding out much hope. She knew the level of the police abroad, especially for a powerless Oriental like her, it was good enough that they didn't ridicule her in front of her, but helping her find the stolen things? She didn't even dare to think about it.

She closed her eyes and thought of the passerby she witnessed when she first arrived in Country M, who was stabbed by a motorcycle gang and whose blood stained the floor tiles red. He also called the police at the time, but what happened? When the police came, they just asked a few routine questions and then said indifferently, "You are so unlucky."

She felt that this sentence also applied to her.

She is so unlucky.

Huo Yuanchen sent her back to the room. She said weakly, "Go ahead. I can do it alone. You still have work to do. I've already wasted a lot of your time and I don't want to make you work overtime."

Huo Yuanchen looked at her pale face and stepped into her room. Seeing that she was still standing at the door, he went back, picked her up, and carried her to the bed.

"I don't have work to do, I can stay with you." He said, taking off his shoes and coat and getting into her bed.

During the process, I was careful to avoid the place where she was having surgery.

Wen Li didn't want to get close to him at the moment, so she reached out and pushed him, "Don't lie to me, you have a lot of things to do every day. These few days in the hospital, I woke up in the middle of the night several times and saw you holding your computer, curled up on the small sofa, working overtime ."

The touch of the clothes under her palm seemed not right, as if something had solidified and stuck to the fibers of the fabric. She pinched it with her fingertips and her face suddenly changed.

When she lifted the quilt again and saw the dried deep red on his shirt, her voice trembled, "Are you injured? Were you cut by the dagger of the motorcycle gang?"

Huo Yuanchen also took a look, raised his arm without much concern, and said lightly, "It's just a little skin injury. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed it."

Half of his sleeves were red, which was not visible before because of the dark coat, but now that only the light-colored shirt was left, it was particularly shocking.

Wen Licai didn't believe that it was just a superficial injury and insisted that he go to the hospital.

Huo Yuanchen was so annoyed by her that he had to say, "There is a first aid kit in the hotel. I can handle it myself. Going to the hospital is an exaggeration. I really don't feel that much pain."

Wen Li was worried and insisted on watching him clean and bandage the wound. Only when he saw that his wound was not deep did he stop insisting on taking him to the hospital.

"I've caused you to get hurt again." She said with a bit of self-blame, "Including the last time you were scalded by Meng Jinnian's mother, I've already caused you to get hurt twice."

Huo Yuanchen held her in his arms, patted her back soothingly, and said, "You have to change your habit of daydreaming. It's not good for your recovery."

Wen Li wanted to say something, but he had already reached out and closed her eyes. "Go to sleep. I'll sleep with you."

But Wen Li couldn't sleep. Her mind was like a train station. She thought about her brother, and then she thought about her passport. She regretted why she put her passport in that bag instead of carrying it with her.

Finally, she couldn't help but think about the passerby who was stabbed by the motorcycle gang. It was strange, it was a long time ago, she thought she had forgotten it completely, but now she could clearly recall the scene at that time, and finally focused into a bloody red.

She couldn't stop shaking.

Huo Yuanchen felt it and asked her, "What's wrong?"

Wen Li told me about the incident in Country M. At the end, she said with lingering fear, "I had just been there for a short time when I encountered this kind of thing. I was terrified and cried and begged my parents to let me return home. But my parents refused and insisted that I stay in Country M. Can you imagine how scared I was at that time?"

Huo Yuanchen tightened his arms around her and coaxed her softly, asking her to go to sleep quickly.

Later, when she was half asleep, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to hear him say something.

"I wish I had been with you at that time."
