The CEO's Woman

The strong scent of disinfectants assaulted Jiang Yue's senses the moment she closed Fu Jin room's door. She roamed her eyes around the room and was immediately speechless.

To say that this was a hospital was really…

It looked more like a VIP suite of some hotel, instead of a hospital room. The design of the room just screamed about elegance and royalty, with its lavish sitting area that was decorated with a big chandelier and gold-plated chairs. Next to the sitting area was a king size bed where Fu Jin was lying.

Jiang Yue slowly walked towards Fu Jin's bed. Her hands clenched as she held her breath, preparing herself to see Fu Jin's bruised and pale face. But to her surprise, there was no such thing as many bruises.

She let out a sigh of relief as she stared at her man. He was lying on his back, his hands were on his stomach, his face was pale and there was a bandage on his left shoulder. .

Jiang Yue slowly clutched Fu Jin's hand and put it on his side, letting the IV flow properly towards his body. 'He must have lost a lot of blood,' she thought before she examined him for any more wounds.

There was nothing.

Jiang Yue immediately felt her heart become a little lighter when she discovered that Fu Jin got only one bullet wound. However, it did not make her anger dissipate at all. With that in mind, she immediately used the phone inside the hospital room to call Bei Ye. She asked him to bring her laptop over.

She was not done with the Li Family yet.

.....

Five minutes before, inside the Li Family's estate...

"Elders! Elders! We have a problem!" A man in his fifties was running towards the main wing of the estate, his voice was hoarse from screaming and his face was a little pale. If Jiang Yue was here, then she would recognize this man. He was one of the ministers that were able to witness Gideon's declaration in the meeting room.

"Minister Hu… how come you are here?" The head maid asked the moment she opened the door for the old man.

"I want to see the Elders, now!" He demanded, ignoring the head maid's question.

"Minister Hu... you know the rules. No one can see them without…"

"The King is dead!" His words immediately silenced the head maid. Her face paled as she did not even spare another minute with the minister anymore. She made her way to the majestic staircase and shouted orders to the other maids.

Gideon was dead! Who would dare to…

"Madam! Please also inform them that the Kim family is gone too." Minister Hu blurted out, hoping to make the head maid deliver that information to the Elders as well. That news was something that could instantly change the situation in the whole country.

....

The temperature in the room was low, as everyone had serious expressions on their faces.

"Who would dare to kill Hong Yi?" Someone asked in a grave tone. "Do you think it is…"

"It should be. If my guess is right, then that imbecile Hong Yi was not able to suppress his emotions and has revealed everything to Jiang Yue."

"That's impossible! Hong Yi was not that type of person. He might have been hopelessly in love with Li Jun, but his loyalty to the Li Family is not something that we can question."

"I agree with the Third Elder. Jiang Yue is not capable of doing that. It should be that Li Qiang! Have we received any news about his current location? Were they able to detect Wang Ruo? Has someone else survived aside from Jiang Yue and Simon?"

Silence followed the First Elder's words. They lacked information to know the specifics of the attack.

"How come our people have not called us the moment this happened?" The First Elder frowned.

"This matter is very important!"

"It must have been because the terrorists have hacked the towers, which damaged the mobile signal in M Country." Someone assumed.

"What about the Kim Family? Any news from our spies? Who would dare to attack them in broad daylight like that?"

"Someone said it was an attack from the space."

Once again, silence followed the Elder's words.

"Call that person! Have him check our space weapon!" The First Elder immediately ordered, hoping that his suspicions were wrong.

However, before the person that he ordered could go outside of the room, other footsteps were heard, then the door was abruptly opened.

"Elders, we have a problem!" A young man in his twenties exclaimed, without even waiting for anyone to speak. He then gave to the elders the tablet that he was carrying.

"What the…"

"Good evening, Gentlemen." A voice echoed inside the room, instantly making all the Elders frown. They immediately looked at the tablet, only to find Jiang Yue's bruised face, smiling at them. Her right eye was swollen, her lips bloody, and there were a lot of purple bruises on her face and neck.

"I am Jiang Yue… nice to finally meet you." The voice once again echoed, waking them up from their stupor.

The First Elder immediately made a hand signal to the man who had brought the tablet over.

"Don't bother tracking me. I will tell you where I am." Jiang Yue said as if she was able to guess their intentions. "I am at the infirmary inside the palace."

"Miss Jiang… we don't have that kind of intentions." The Second Elder immediately tried to defend them. "We were just... wondering... What has happened to your face? Do you need our help? We can immediately give you the best doctors…"

"Save your explanations..." Jiang Yue's blatant disrespect immediately made the Second Elder's face turn into a scowl.

"Let's stop all these pretentious words and hypocrisy!" Jiang Yue said, without waiting for anyone to answer her. "You have hurt the people I love the most, and I am not happy about that."

"You better prepare yourself! I am coming after you!"
