The Surrogate Bride of the Colonel He

711. Xu Yangyi Fainted in the Alley

Translator: WhisperJo

As for Xu Yangyi now, he was not very lucky and got shot in the arm, which thereby immobilized his arms and had exhausted all his strength.

“Damn! It hurts like hell.”

Xu Yangyi leaned against the back door of a bar and sat down weakly by the door. At this moment, he was unable to muster any strength and was in a messy state.

Sadly, he was losing his vision.

He has lost too much blood from the gunshot wound on Xu Yangyi’s arm which had yet been treated. It took all his strength away and he was unable to open his eyes.

‘Damn it! How can I faint at such a place? What if they see me?’

‘But I can’t move now and I don’t know where I am.’

‘That bastard He Jingyan! Does he know that I’m dying?’

Although he cursed He Jingyan like that, Xu Yangyi wanted so badly to see his face and let him carry him out of here.

‘Now, I can only rely on myself. Old Uncle and his men might come soon.’

Xu Yangyi consoled himself, then he struggled to get up, but as soon as he stood up, everything around him seemed to be spinning and he ended up falling on the ground and not moving at all.

It was unknown how long it had passed. It might be five or even ten minutes. The back door of the bar was finally opened and a girl about Xu Yangyi’s age came out. She dragged the big waste container out with difficulty. Her face was covered in sweat and her clothes were dirty.

The waste container blocked her sight and she didn’t notice Xu Yangyi who was lying on the ground, so she stumbled over him and the garbage was scattered everywhere.

“It hurts! What tripped me?”

The girl rubbed her aching knees and got up, as she put away the waste container to see clearly, she found Xu Yangyi lying unconsciously on the ground.

Seeing that Xu Yangyi’s arm was still streaming with blood, she was so shocked that she fell to the ground and then she looked around in panic.

At this moment, an old woman’s groan came from the bar, “Damn girl! You want to give up your job, right? If you don’t want to do it, get lost.”

“I’m sorry, I fell down, that’s it. I’ll clean it up at once.”

She was so frightened that she didn’t know what to do. She started sweeping the garbage into the waste container with her hands, not noticing the broken glass and fishbone among the barbage which hurt her hands and left traces of blood on the ground. However, as though she didn’t feel any pain, she continued to sweep the garbage with her bare hands. Perhaps she was already feeling numb, or perhaps the woman was more scary than these sharp things, numbing her from the pain.

She cleaned up the trash and was about to leave, but she stopped and took one more glance at Xu Yangyi.

“A girl…?” She mumbled, but for some reason, after struggling for a short moment, she helped Xu Yangyi up and carried him to the dark basement.

The basement was not only smelly but also damp. The girl put Xu Yangyi on her little bed and covered him with a not-so-clean blanket. However, as soon as she covered him with the blanket, she pulled it away at once and stared at Xu Yangyi.

“Now that she was injuried, would she get infected with this blanket? It’s best I don’t cover her with that!”

Though the girl seemed dirty, it was not hard to tell that she was a girl with a charming face.

She was afraid that she would be scolded, so she left Xu Yangyi there and hurriedly headed back to the shop upstairs. However, when she looked out from the back door, she saw the pool of blood on the ground. In the end, she had no choice but to clean the blood trail, which was left by Xu Yangyi along the alley, with water.

“It’s done at last.”

She was so tired that she couldn’t stand up.
