Lu Xi looked up and saw Wen Qingmo's face.

"Lu Xi?

Slowly, as the brief struggle with Mu Qi ended, Lu Xi's tense nerves gradually relaxed, and Wen Qingmo's voice changed from a distant emptiness to a close and tangible presence. She blinked her eyes, took a step back, and at that moment, the pain that had been suppressed under excitement began to spread.

Lu Xi winced in pain, her mouth agape, taking a sharp breath. She looked at her right hand and saw a shallow cut on her palm, probably from gripping Mu Qi tightly earlier. Her palm was now covered in blood, looking quite terrifying.

Although the wound was not exaggerated, alphas could fight but that didn't mean they weren't afraid of pain. Lu Xi's hand trembled uncontrollably as she struggled to hold back the cries and curses that were about to burst out.

"Xiao Xi, your hand. . ."

Xia Weiwei, who had finished calling the police, ran to Lu Xi's side and said, her voice trembling, "You need to go to the hospital quickly!

"It's all my fault, if only I hadn't pulled you to sit there. . ."

Hearing Xia Weiwei's tearful voice, Lu Xi instinctively tried to comfort her, "It's okay, it was all because of me. Even if I hadn't sat there, Mu Qi would have found me sooner or later."

"Go to the hospital!"

Before the words were finished, Wen Qingmo took a step forward, grabbed Lu Xi's uninjured left hand, and without saying a word, walked towards the car parked by the road.

Wen Qingmo held her hand tightly, almost squeezing it, his palm cold and slightly damp. Lu Xi was pulled along for a few steps before she barely reacted and stepped on the brakes, saying, "Big brother, wait a moment!"

Wen Qingmo was forced to stop, he turned around, his chest heaving. Lu Xi hurriedly said before he could speak, "Weiwei has already called the police, let's wait for them to arrive. It should be soon. My injuries are not serious, see, there's no bleeding."

It's just a stinging pain.

Lu Xi raised her hand to show Wen Qingmo. She didn't really understand the process of calling the police, but she felt that her injuries weren't severe enough to be unconscious. She couldn't just disappear when the police arrived at the scene.

The girl's fingers were fair and slender, supposed to be flawless like jade, but there was a long and narrow wound in her palm, with dried bloodstains on her fingertips and even her wrist. Wen Qingmo felt a tightness in his chest, as if it was not Lu Xi who was injured, but himself. "No! We must go! Let's treat the wound now!" he insisted.

Saying that, he stubbornly walked forward.

"Ah!" Lu Xi suddenly pretended to cry out, "You're too rough, my hand hurts!"

Wen Qingmo's body reacted faster than his brain. He immediately released Lu Xi's hand as if he had been shocked, his expression briefly showing panic. "I'm sorry, are you okay?"

Lu Xi took the opportunity to step back.

Wen Qingmo's behavior today was uncharacteristically unstable, impatient, and somewhat at a loss. Lu Xi knew that Wen Qingmo was worried about her, and her heart softened. She spoke, "I'm really fine, Big Brother. Please calm down first, don't be nervous. Look, the police cars are about to arrive."

The police arrived quickly, and with the school being close to the police station, it only took a few minutes from Xia Weiwei's call for help to the two police cars driving in through the school gate.

Late at night.

The sky had completely darkened.

Tree branches grew recklessly, covering the streetlights, and fragments of light fell through the gaps in the leaves. Lu Xi followed Wen Qingmo, yawning, and walked out of the police station, feeling exhausted.
