The distance between heaven and hell is not far; it's just a phone call away.
In the previous three days, Xia Tian was undoubtedly in paradise. He finally got the policewoman he had been dreaming of, and they were together, enjoying unparalleled pleasure.
However, with one phone call, he nearly fell into hell, as Ye Mengying had an accident.
Xia Tian didn't know exactly how Ye Mengying was injured. He only rushed to her side at top speed because Ye Xiaoxiong informed him over the phone that she was severely wounded. For Xia Tian, this was good news; being seriously injured meant she was still alive. As long as she was alive, he could cure her.
When Xia Tian arrived at the Ye family's residence and saw Ye Mengying, he found her lying on the lawn. Many people were gathered around her, including her grandfather Ye Tiansouth, her parents, Ye Xiaoxiong, and some of her bodyguards. The air was filled with an odd smell, and Xia Tian immediately deduced that there had been an explosion.
Ye Mengying was unconscious without any obvious external injuries. Her clothes were neat, but blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Her face, which used to be vividly beautiful, now appeared abnormally pale with no trace of blood color.
Xia Tian moved swiftly beside Ye Mengying and grabbed her wrist. A second later, Xia Tian heaved a slight sigh of relief; Ye Mengying's injuries were indeed severe but not beyond his capabilities to heal.
"Summer, how is Mengying We don't know the situation and dare not move her, so she has been lying here."
Mengying suffered some serious internal injuries, but it's fine. I can heal her." Summer picked up Ye Mengying from the ground and looked at the villa next to them, exclaiming in surprise, "Whose house is this Didn't the beautiful sister live there"
"This is Uncle’s house. Mengying is over there," said Ye Shaoxiong with a low voice. "Summer, we can talk about these matters later. You need to heal Mengying first. Once she's fine, I'll tell you the details of what happened."
"Okay." Summer said and then quickly moved to another small villa hundreds of meters away, which was Ye Mengying’s residence. Although he had never lived here before, it didn't take him long to find her second-floor bedroom. He placed her on the bed and took out his silver needles, starting to heal her injuries.
Ye Mengying just went through an explosion but has no external wounds. The reason is actually quite simple: there was a rather powerful true qi within her body that protected it during the blast. Unfortunately, compared to the explosive force, this true qi wasn't strong enough, so although she didn’t have any external injuries, she still suffered internal injuries.
For general doctors, treating internal injuries is quite difficult; however, for Summer, it's not a problem at all. His extraordinary Eight Needles and ice-fire spirit energy can easily handle these kinds of internal injuries.
Naturally, "easy" is relative. In fact, it took Summer almost an hour to completely heal Ye Mengying’s internal injuries.
"Husband," Ye Mengying opened her beautiful eyes. Her face was no longer pale but fully restored its rosy hue, still as charming as ever. If not for the bloodstain at the corner of her mouth, it would seem like nothing had happened to her.
Summer gently wiped away the trace of blood from the corner of Ye Mengying's mouth and then asked, "Sis, tell me, which idiot injured you with an explosion"
"I don't know either." Ye Mengying shook her head lightly. "Husband, let’s not talk about this for now. I’ll go wash my face. Tell Grandpa and Brother that I’m fine so they won’t worry anymore."
"Alright." Summer agreed and quickly went downstairs where Ye Tiansouth and Ye Shaoxiong were waiting in the living room.
Seeing Summer come down, Ye Shaoxiong hurriedly asked, "How is Mengying"
"She’s fine. She just went to wash her face and will be coming down shortly." Summer replied nonchalantly.
"That’s a relief," Ye Shaoxiong heaved a long sigh of relief and then sat heavily on the sofa. "Finally, I can relax. It truly is true that no matter how much one guards against outsiders, it's hard to guard against those within!"
"Shaoxiong, forget about it. They’re all dead anyway; I think this might not have been them after all," Ye Tiansouth said from the side.
"Who else could it be if not them" Ye Shaoxiong was extremely indignant. "They pinned everything on Mengying and this time, they really wanted to blow her up!"
Ye Tianshan fell silent for a moment and sighed heavily after some time: "This is also my fault. If I hadn't asked Mengying to pay a New Year's visit, this wouldn't have happened. Fortunately, Mengying is fine now; otherwise...
"Grandpa, don't think too much about it. How could this be your fault" Ye Mengying's voice came from the stairwell: "No one could have predicted something like this."
Seeing Ye Mengying come down safely, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. The bodyguards also felt relieved; if anything had happened to Ye Mengying, they wouldn't know how to report back to Xia Tian.
"Sis, what exactly happened" Xia Tian was still confused about the situation.
Ye Mengying walked over to Xia Tian and pulled him down onto the sofa beside her. Then she began recounting today's events. After hearing Ye Mengying's account, Xia Tian finally understood why Ye Shaoxiong had said that it is hard to guard against traitors from within.
In fact, security around Ye Mengying was very tight now; originally, in Ye Shaoxiong's view, there was no way anything could happen to her. However, despite all calculations and preparations, he failed to anticipate one thing—his uncle Ye Zhiyi.
Ye Zhiyi's life was indeed tough now, having lost almost all his wealth and his son as well. Nevertheless, Ye Shaoxiong felt no sympathy for this uncle; Ye Tianshan, on the other hand, found it hard to bear, since he was still his father. This is why Ye Tianshan suggested today that Ye Mengying pay a New Year's visit to Ye Zhiyi—no matter what, he didn't want him to be so desolate and lonely.
Although Ye Mengying had no positive feelings for this uncle either, she agreed with her father’s suggestion. In her view, it wasn’t a big deal, so she went over to visit Ye Zhiyi's house. However, nobody could have imagined that she would encounter an explosion there.
The bodyguards assigned to Ye Mengying had been very vigilant about explosions, checking Ye Mengying's car and her home and office every day for bombs. However, they only ever checked the places where she lived, worked, or traveled, never suspecting that there would be a bomb waiting at Ye Zhixi’s house.
"Husband, we can't really blame them this time. I only intended to drop by briefly and didn’t let them come with me. Who could have known there would be a bomb in Uncle Yi's home I was just about to leave after saying a few words when suddenly the explosion happened. I quickly jumped out of the window next to me, but it was too late; the shockwave hit me and I fainted."
Ye Mengying softly defended her bodyguards then turned to ask, "Eldest Brother, how are Uncle Yi and Auntie"
"How could they be fine They died on the spot," Ye Shaoxiong said angrily. "Fine with them wanting to die, but trying to take you down with them is outrageous!"
“Actually, we can't even confirm it was them who wanted to kill me. If they really wanted to do that, why would they want to blow themselves up too” Ye Mengying frowned slightly. "Eldest Brother, did you report this to the police"
"Not yet," Ye Shaoxiong shook his head. "I'll call them now and have them examine the scene carefully; maybe something can be found."
“Don’t bother reporting it.” Xia Tian suddenly interjected.
"Husband, why not report it to the police" Ye Mengying asked curiously.
"I'll get someone else to investigate. They should be better than the police at this," Xia Tian said quickly and then took out his phone to call Mu Han.
Summer didn't have much faith in the police's capabilities, so he wanted to let the Dark Team take over this investigation. Of course, Mu Han wouldn't refuse his request; she agreed to immediately arrange manpower for an investigation of the explosion and see if they could find the mastermind behind it.
After ten minutes, a car drove into the Ye family compound, and several people carrying boxes got out, beginning to gather evidence at the scene.
At this moment, Summer called Xiao Qiao again.
"Honey, have you returned to Jianghai" Xiao Qiao's voice quickly came through.
"I'm back," Summer replied without hiding anything. However, he didn't mention which day exactly he had come back. "Wife, I need to tell you something: a few months ago, that idiot who wanted to take revenge on me while I wasn't around seems to have acted again—sister Mei just encountered the explosion. Please inform Brother Qiao Dong and ask him to notify all bodyguards to be especially cautious recently."
"Okay, understood," Xiao Qiao replied, then asked with concern, "Is Sister Mengying okay"
"She's fine now; I just healed her injuries," Summer answered.
"Then honey, you take good care of her first. I'll give Big Brother a call." Xiao Qiao said softly before hanging up the phone.stronger than the Chengs, but after a reshuffle of power among major influential families in Jingcheng, these minor influential families fell behind the Chengs.
