“I didn’t!” She retorted. It was true that she had no intention of taking this case now, after all, she had just listened to a seat of seniors and knew in her heart how suspenseful it was.
Joey Xu looked at her, warning, solemn, “You better have some sense of proportion and stop not knowing your place. Sammy Jones, I can spare you once, but I will never indulge you a second time!”
After he said that, he stiffened his face, turned around and left. Looking at that back, Sammy Jones suddenly said, “Joey Xu, in your opinion, is a person’s life still not worth a billion dollars?”
Joey Xu’s footsteps lurched and he looked back at her with a ghostly coldness, “You don’t need to talk to me about reasoning, human life has never been worth anything in my eyes. Not to mention Old Man Lin, even my own life I don’t think it’s worth a billion dollars!”
“Your values are wrong!” Sammy Jones corrected her earnestly.
“Those are the values I was raised with! Do you think you can change it? I’m doing business now, not charity, the assets of the Four Directions Group are there, I’m only responsible for keeping them down. As for the death sentence, it has nothing to do with me!”
“How is it not relevant? If the Four Directions Group evaluates out to be worth $2 billion, and he takes that money out to pay back the shareholders who financed it, the debt owed will only be $50 million, which is unlikely to be a death sentence! At best, it’s just a bankruptcy!”
Joey Xu turned back around and walked up to her again, looking at her from the top down, “Sammy Jones, use your brain to think about it, why is it that a legal financing program that was once clearly nodded by the top is now branded as illegal? Do you think that if I offer 2 billion dollars to old man Lin and ask him to pay back the money, he will escape death? Don’t be childish! I’m telling you, he’s been nailed by the higher-ups a long time ago! Drawing circles, blacklisted people, get it? Give him 2 billion dollars, I’m afraid he won’t even have the life to take it!”
In fact, Joey Xu’s all this, Sammy Jones had already thought of it. It must have been some kind of interest fight with some big shot at the top, and that’s why she was caught by the tail and drilled into the hole. However, she had thought that as long as Joey Xu’s side loosened up, there might still be a ray of hope.
But, now that I hear him say it, the end seems to be in sight.
“Sammy Jones, you tramp!” Suddenly, a curse came out at first. Sammy Jones turned around in shock to see a cloaked middle-aged woman running straight towards her with a small bottle in her hand.
Days!
Sammy Jones mind immediately thought of the Xu family, that bottle was hardly sulfuric acid?
She was so scared that her whole body was dumbfounded, in that instant, her mind was blank, and for a long time, she could only stare blankly at the middle-aged woman running towards her.
The bottle was open and the liquid was thrown out by the woman.
“Ah…” she screamed, subconsciously covering her face with her hands. Just as she was mentally preparing herself for the pain, her entire body was swept up by a force, and in the next instant, her slender body fell into a warm bend of embrace. A familiar male scent swept over her, leaving her confused.
And then …
There was a muffled grunt of pain in his ear.
“Go to hell! Death to all! Death to all!” The woman screamed out of control.
There were messy footsteps coming from the woman being restrained by Joey Xu’s men.
Sammy Jones, however, could hear nothing but Joey Xu’s ragged, agonized gasps in his ears.
“Where did you … hurt?” She was shaking all over, and she, who had always never shed tears in front of others, was now actually clattering and shedding tears in front of everyone. Shaking body out of Joey Xu s arms, about to go around his back. Just now he has been holding himself, back to the person, I am afraid that all the sulfuric acid poured behind him.
“Don’t move.” Joey Xu used every ounce of his strength to immobilize her and keep her in place. The wound on his back, he wasn’t sure what it looked like himself, I’m afraid it was hideous and horrible.
She was obviously terrified and had lost her color. To be seen with another wound would only scare her worse.
Joey Xu could feel her weak and shaky body. Then he wrapped his arms around her and turned his head to look at the person who was clamped down over there.
” Mr. Xu, what’s to be done?”
“Send it to the police station. And this woman’s son, find him as soon as possible!” Joey Xu ordered.
“Yes!” The men twisted the woman and headed out. The woman was still cursing, like a crazy woman. As soon as they left, cold sweat broke out on Joey Xu’s forehead, surrounded by the pungent smell of sulfuric acid, he embraced Sammy Jones, resting his head helplessly on her shoulder, “Call 120!”
Sammy Jones then remembered this, “I’ll call right away! Hit it now! You hang in there a little longer!”
She was so anxious that her tears fell faster, wrapping one hand around him and rummaging through her bag. “You can’t die, Joey Xu, I’ll feel guilty for the rest of my life if anything happens to you!”
Joey Xu felt that even if he didn’t die from the acid, he would still be pissed off by this woman. The big palm that was clasped on her thin waist pinched in annoyance, “You woman, can you talk anymore? Am I that easy to die?”
“I didn’t want you to die, did I?” Sammy Jones has his cell phone out, fighting a sobbing defense while dialing 120 and dying again.
Joey Xu grunted, “Words are not enough! If your hand shakes again, I’ll really die!”
She choked, her fingers didn’t dare to shake anymore, and it was hard to poke the number 120 out. When she hung up the phone, Joey Xu fell on her shoulder and did not say anything. Sammy Jones blindfolded tears, twisted his head to look at his pale and weak face, only to feel a heart screwed tightly, very painful. She couldn’t figure out what was wrong with this man, obviously so bad, only threaten her, only use the power to press people, how come this kind of time in turn stood up?
Helping him to the dining room, Luo Jinchuan realized that something was wrong, dropped his chopsticks and ran over, taking a look at the injury on that back, his face went cold.
“Shit, the Xu family is too dead to die!”
“Is it hurt bad? Let me see.” Sammy Jones went to look at the wound again, and Joey Xu tugged at her. Luo Jinchuan was busy blocking her face with her hand. “Don’t look, don’t look. Vulnerable people are not fit to watch.”
Sammy Jones as soon as she heard this is more anxious, she knew it was hurt badly, did not go to see anymore, only looked down at Joey Xu, choking, “I’m sorry, it’s me who dragged you down …”
“No blame, it’s him who poked this hornet’s nest.” Before Joey Xu could say anything, Luo Jinchuan spoke up, “I told you that Xu Guohua has never gotten in our way, you’re just trying to fix him.”
“You shut up!” Joey Xu blanked him.
Sammy Jones heard Luo Jinchuan’s words in his heart. Xu Guohua was really killed by Joey Xu, so it was because of her? This thought, again, kept bubbling outwards, making her heart flutter.
Emergency vehicles have arrived, Joey Xu to the stretcher on a plop, the wounds all fell in the eyes of Sammy Jones, Sammy Jones on the spot scared legs, almost fainted. A large part of the back, has been burned to a bloody mess, clothes broken and sticking to the flesh, miserable.
“Lawyer Ye!” Luo Jinchuan held her up.
“I’m fine, I’m fine!” Sammy Jones shook his head, barely standing up straight. Don’t look away, red eyes again.
“It’s good that he’s fine, don’t worry, he can handle this injury.” Luo Jinchuan downplayed it.
The more he said this, the more Sammy Jones felt sad in her heart. Luo Jinchuan saw that her face didn’t look good, so he said, “Aren’t you on a blind date? Why don’t you continue to go on a blind date and I’ll go to the hospital to accompany him?”
“I’ll go together!” Sammy Jones refused Luo Jinchuan’s offer without even thinking about it.
Joey Xu got into the car, and Sammy Jones was about to follow, when Le Mei ran out from the restaurant, “Sammy Jones! Mr. Wang has been looking for you, didn’t you two have a good conversation? Why did you just leave? People thought you had some kind of prejudice against him.”
Sammy Jones subconsciously glanced towards Joey Xu in the car, who was also sweeping towards her at this moment. When they met, his eyes darkened.
“Xiao Yun, I have something going on right now, please talk to Lawyer Wang, I will call him again.” Sammy Jones said and was about to get into the car, Le Mei then realized it was a 120 car, confused for a split second, tugging at her, “What’s wrong with you?”
“I’m fine, it’s him who’s not fine.”
” Mr. Xu?” Le Mei was stunned.
“By the way, I can’t stay at your place, I’ll call you to talk about the other words.” It couldn’t be explained in a few words, Sammy Jones didn’t dare to say any more, and hurriedly got into the car, leaving a bewildered Le Mei there.
How come he’s gone in a flash?
If the Tsui family followed her to the restaurant, they must have known her whereabouts, and Sammy Jones won’t dare to go to Lok Mei’s place again. Going to Andrea Jones is not an option! Andrea Jones might even be involved, she is pregnant and taking care of Neal Williams, it would be too bad to worry about her.
Of course …
It wasn’t even the right time for her to worry about that, and Joey Xu was taken straight to the emergency room for emergency treatment, where Sammy Jones sat outside the door with his head hanging down, still in shock and in a state of shock.
After more than an hour, Joey Xu was pushed out of the emergency room. She ran over one step faster than Luo Jinchuan, “How is it? How is it?”
“The wounds have just been treated and you will have to stay in the hospital for the rest of the day. Because the burns are quite large, we suggest that it would be easier for you to hire a professional caretaker. Furthermore, when the wound is healed, let’s see what Mr. Rong means, if a skin graft is needed …”
“He won’t do something as torpid as implanting skin.” Luo Jinchuan cut off a word.
“Uh-huh.” Joey Xu buried his face and answered. Brothers or brothers, know best.
“That’ll do. Go to the ward and get some rest first, and one of you come to my diagnostic room to get your prescription.”
Luo Jinchuan followed the doctor while Sammy Jones followed the nurse to accompany Joey Xu to the hospital room.
This is a Vip ward. It is quite spacious and bright, and the furnishings inside are neatly matched, with a sofa, TV and computer. Only, even better equipped facilities can’t escape the hospital’s flavor.
As soon as the nurse left, Joey Xu was lying naked on the bed. The gauze was wrapped all the way from under her arms to her waist, revealing a waist that was also extremely sexy. Sammy Jones sat next to her with all sorts of emotions swirling around in his mind.
Guilt is definitely there, and there is also touched … If he did not step forward at that moment, the one who is lying in bed now may be himself. And, I’m afraid that she burned or face.
“Would you like some water? I’ll get you a glass of water.” Sammy Jones asked him in a completely redeeming mood.
“Not talking to me cynically now?”
“No!” He was his benefactor now. Could she? It wasn’t like he was really heartless.
“Well, then get me some water.”
After pouring the water, she had to feed Joey Xu, who was lying on his back. When feeding him, Sammy Jones had to crouch down on the floor and bring the cup to his lips like a little maid in the old days. Joey Xu was choking when she fed him too quickly, and she just wanted to pat his back to smooth it out, but when she saw his back, she didn’t even dare to move. Can only symbolically rub the back of his head, “You drink slowly, slowly.”
Joey Xu shook his head, “Sammy Jones, you’re playing me like a dog?”
Sammy Jones’ eyes, which were still reddened, suddenly laughed at this moment, “You said that oh I didn’t.”
