Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!-Chapter 822 - 373 The comer is not good.

"Stop."

The silent hospital corridor in the dead of night made one’s heart feel uneasy.

The overhead lights flickered as if they had a bad connection, casting an even more terrifying, eerie atmosphere.

Footsteps came from behind, filled with a strong sense of oppression, approaching from afar to near.

Shen You’an stopped, slowly turning around.

Seeing that face, Yu Ruohuan’s pupils suddenly shrank, and a few words were squeezed out almost through clenched teeth.

"It’s you."

Shen You’an said with a smile, "Yu, it’s been a long time."

Yu Ruohuan stared closely at the face in front of her. Shen You’an had rushed out and forgotten to wear glasses, so an unhidden face was displayed before Yu Ruohuan.

Yu Ruohuan sneered, "Shen You’an, what are you doing here?"

"Personal matters, I’m afraid I can’t tell. I have things to do, so I’ll be leaving first."

With that, he turned and left straight away.

Yu Ruohuan’s eyes were fixed on Shen You’an’s departing back, as if they were about to spew venom.

"Shen You’an, your good days are over."

These days, her great-grandmother was seriously ill, and her second uncle got into trouble, causing chaos at home. She hadn’t had time to deal with Shen You’an, inadvertently letting her have some peaceful days.

But her peaceful days had come to an end.

Yu Ruohuan dialed a phone call out, and Yu Fusheng answered, his tone full of impatience.

"What’s this about, calling me so late?"

"Father, didn’t you want the Leng family’s miraculous medicine to save great-grandmother?"

Yu Fusheng frowned, "Speak."

"Leave this matter to me, I’ll definitely make that old Leng Shan obediently hand over the medicine."

"Do you have a way?"

Yu Ruohuan curled her lips, "I didn’t have it before, but now I do."

"Don’t disappoint me."

"But father, if I succeed, you have to promise me one condition."

"What do you want?"

Yu Ruohuan glanced back at the closed door of the operating room.

"I want autonomy in marriage."

The Gu family, though noble, had no real power. Father, being someone who prioritizes benefits, never considered the Gu family as a choice for a son-in-law. He aimed at the Wen family and the Xiao family, who controlled the Xiao Family Army.

After all, the Xiao family was also an enemy of the Yu family, having endured quietly for many years. Precisely because of this, father was determined to eliminate this serious threat, and the easiest way was through marriage.

Embedding her as a chess piece in the Xiao family, just waiting for the right time to explode, taking down the Xiao family without any bloodshed.

But how could she be willing to accept that? She had to plot for herself so as not to end up as a mere pawn.

"Quite ambitious, isn’t it for that boy from the Gu family?"

Yu Ruohuan bit her lip, "Father, you know that."

"That boy is not bad, and the status of the Gu family matches you. Unfortunately, wasn’t the disruption at the previous banquet embarrassing enough?"

"That was in the past, it won’t happen again now."

"Alright, if you can make that boy from the Gu family change his mind, I’ll agree with you."

"But if you can’t, you must obediently follow my arrangements."

The light in the operating room went out, and Leng Yan walked out with a face full of fatigue.

"The major artery was injured, and there was excessive bleeding. Fortunately, he was brought in time, and the arm was saved."

Leng Yan said, his body somewhat wavering, and his assistant hurried to support him.

Leng Yan was getting older and rarely performed surgeries himself, let alone minor surgeries. But given that the person inside was surnamed Gu, and facing an even more formidable Yu Family member, he had to.

"Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Leng. By the way, how has Old Sir Leng’s health been lately?"

Leng Yan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Elder brother’s health is fine, thank you for asking, Miss Yu."

"Is that so? Please convey to Old Sir Leng that I plan to visit tomorrow morning."

Leng Yan found it strange—what kind of trick was Miss Yu playing?

After the incident with Xingshuang, Elder brother was preparing to cut ties with the Yu family. Although he thought Elder brother’s actions were overreaching, the conflict was already on the table. Was Miss Yu’s blatant visit to Elder brother’s house intentional?

It was certainly not a good thing.

Gu Bichen was transferred to a ward, still under anesthesia and unconscious. Under the light, the young boy’s face was paler than the white wall behind him.

Yu Ruohuan stared at his sleeping face for a while, holding his hand and murmuring, "Gu Bichen, this time you initiated it."

You have no chance anymore.

Shen You’an quietly entered the ward, and the bed-ridden Yan Lu opened her eyes weakly at the sound.

"An’an... "

"Is there anywhere else you’re feeling uncomfortable? I’ll call the doctor."

Yan Lu shook her head, "I’m okay, sorry for troubling you, having to take care of me at the hospital in the middle of the night, cough cough... "

Shen You’an reached out to tuck in her blanket corners, "Don’t speak, just rest well."

"I want to file a complaint against that barbecue place. Just wait... Lucky you didn’t eat much, An’an; otherwise, I’d be in bigger trouble... "

Overwhelmed by sleepiness, Yan Lu fell asleep once more.

Shen You’an thought of the injured Gu Bichen. Yu Ruohuan had brought him to the hospital; what happened between them?

Shen You’an had a bad feeling.

It wasn’t until the next morning that Shen You’an learned what happened in the private room last night.

At Gu Bichen’s birthday party, Yu Ruohuan showed up uninvited. Somehow, Leng Xingshuang suddenly went berserk, wielding a knife to stab Yu Ruohuan, and Gu Bichen, in a moment of desperation, shielded her and took the stab.

The Leng family was in trouble. Yu Ruohuan was bound to make a big deal out of this.

Shen You’an immediately dialed Leng Shan’s number, and Leng Shan answered slowly, yet his tone was respectful, "Mr. Amos?"

"Old Mr. Leng..."

Just as Shen You’an spoke, Housekeeper Leng’s panicked voice came through the phone, "Old Sir, Miss Yu has arrived."

Leng Shan’s tone dropped, mixed with some impatience, "What’s she here for?"

"She has her men pressing Miss Xingshuang. The intention is not good."

"What?" Leng Shan was shocked, but being a seasoned person, he remained composed.

He hadn’t forgotten he was on a call with Amos, "Mr. Amos, something has come up on my end. I’ll contact you as soon as it’s handled, my apologies."

With that, he ended the call and said to the butler, "Open the door, I want to see what the Yu family intends to do."

"Old Sir Leng, still in good health, I see."

Yu Ruohuan swaggered into the living room, followed by four tall, stern men with orderly and well-trained steps.

Leng Shan’s eyes narrowed sharply when he noticed the identical guns on the four men’s waists.

And Leng Xingshuang was escorted in by the last man, looking as pale as paper, with disheveled hair, a pitiful sight, as if her soul was drained, losing her usual vivacity, which deeply pained Leng Shan.

"Miss Yu, I wonder what mistake my Xingshuang could have made that you could treat her like a criminal. If you cannot explain, don’t blame me, Leng Shan, for being merciless."

Yu Ruohuan nonchalantly walked to the sofa and sat down as if she were at home, "Have your granddaughter tell you herself what she did."

Leng Shan looked at Leng Xingshuang, his tone softened, "Xingshuang, don’t be afraid. Tell Grandpa, what did you do?"

Leng Xingshuang cried and shook her head, "Grandpa... "

"Speak, only if you say it, can Grandpa help you, don’t worry, Grandpa is here, no one can harm you."

Leng Xingshuang, with tearful eyes, said, "I... I lost my mind for a moment and hurt brother Bichen."

Leng Shan was shocked, "What did you say?"

Yu Ruohuan sneered, "Lost your mind for a moment? I think it was premeditated. Moreover, it’s not that you hurt Gu Bichen; Gu Bichen took a stab for me. The person you intended to kill, was me."

Leng Shan, in his shock, felt his body swaying. The butler quickly stepped forward to support him.

Leng Shan took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, "Miss Yu, could there be some misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding?" Yu Ruohuan chuckled, "Everyone in the room last night can testify. Attempted murder, Old Sir Leng, how many years do you think your beloved granddaughter would be sentenced to?"

"Oh, I almost forgot, she’s not even sixteen yet. The law protects minors, so she won’t get a heavy sentence. But 10 to 20 years should be possible. With witnesses and evidence at hand, Old Sir Leng, are you still going to cover for her?"

As soon as her words landed, two police officers entered and stood by the door, awaiting Yu Ruohuan’s signal to act.

Leng Shan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. The Xiang family and the Helian family were all affiliated with the Yu family. Deciding someone’s sentence was just a matter of words for them.

Leng Shan had no choice but to bow his old back, "Miss Yu, what does the old man have to do to let Xingshuang have a way out?"

Seeing her proud grandfather stoop to beg for mercy because of her, and to a girl young enough to be his granddaughter, Leng Xingshuang’s inner fury and resentment peaked at that moment.

Yu Ruohuan did it on purpose, intentionally humiliating her, humbling her grandfather, trampling on his dignity. This was Old Sir Leng, a respectable figure in the medical world; how dare she...

"Yu Ruohuan, I did it, and I’m willing to pay for it. Don’t make things hard on my grandpa... "

Leng Xingshuang shouted angrily.

Leng Shan glared at her fiercely, "Shut up."

"Grandpa."

Leng Shan looked back at Yu Ruohuan. The girl sat while he stood. This time, he didn’t bend again, speaking calmly, "Miss Yu, name your terms."

"Talking to a smart person really saves effort."

Yu Ruohuan glanced around, "Your Leng family is a century-old medical family, producing many legendary doctors, renowned throughout Hua Xia. I heard that a century ago, your ancestor Leng Baizhu invented the Nine Revitalizing Soul Pills with miraculous life-saving effects."

Leng Shan’s heart sank, so that was her aim.

Yu Ruohuan smiled, "Old Sir Leng, handing over the Nine Revitalizing Soul Pills to trade for your granddaughter, isn’t that a worthwhile deal?"
