Secret Wife Is A Crazy Beast

Chapter 58 - The Queen of the underworld

The next morning, Shen and Lina went to visit Ro-kun at Capital City's best private hospital.

Ro-kun was inside one of the VIP rooms on the drip and resting. He had needed a lot of blood after they managed to bring him to the hospital the previous evening.

Dr. Yoshi was there to greet them outside in the ward. He was the only medical personnel that knew about Lina and Shen's relationship. The ward had been specially cleared entirely for Ro-kun.

"Good morning young master, madam."

"Dr. Yoshi, how is Ro-kun's condition?" Shen asked him immediately.

"His body is strong and the wound missed vital organs. He just lost a lot of blood. If not for madam's removing the bullet and stitching the wound up....the ambulance just might have been too late."

As he spoke the last sentence, Dr. Yoshi's gaze fell upon the beautiful madam's wide-eyed, bunny-like expression.

Right now, she was dressed in a pretty white dress, and a light blue sweater with the first button done up. Her long hair was plaited beautifully in a fishtail braid that hung loosely on her shoulder and her face was fresh and make-up free.

She looked like a small, pure angel clinging on to her husband's arm.

This sweet child administered emergency first aid, with surgeon-like precision?! Maybe he shouldn't underestimate the madam.

She was after all, the Queen of the underworld, Shen Moshi's wife. She couldn't possibly just be a simple-minded white lotus.

Next to her Shen was tall and clean cut handsome in his light blue shirt and well fitted trousers. He had been going through work doc.u.ments in the car on their way to the hospital so he still had his reading glasses on.

His loving, proud gaze on his little wife made them look like a movie poster that would make anyone swoon.

Dr. Yoshi, an old and well accomplished doctor, thought he was going mad, fangirling after the couple like a silly teenager.

"Can we go in and see him?" Lina asked the doctor.

"Yes. Ms. Ayu has been with him the whole time. She's with him right now."

Dr. Yoshi had noticed that Ayu hadn't left his side for moment, making sure Ro-kun was as comfortable as possible since he had been brought in.

Shen and Lina looked at each other. Neither one of them had pegged Ayu to be so concerned about anyone else if it interfered with her work schedule.

Nonetheless, they went in to Ro-kun's room, bringing with them fruits, tonics and flowers.

Ro-kun was knocked out with pain killers and blood transfusions. They noticed Ayu asleep on the chair next to him.

The room was slightly chilly and Ayu was still in her work shirt.

Lina noticed a shawl next to her and went up to cover her with it.

Sensing a presence and the shawl covering her body, Ayu's eyes flew open with a start.

Seeing Lina's face above her, covering her with the shawl as she woke up her heart skipped a beat.

This madam would kill her one day, if she kept looking after her. Her mind brought back images of the day she first met the madam, taking care of her after she collapsed at the office from overworking.

Lina's smiling face right now overlapped with the image she had of her from 9 months ago when she made her the soup as she regained consciousness that evening.

Her hand slowly reached up to touch Lina's arm, that was adjusting the shawl over her.

But Shen cleared his throat, bringing Ayu back to reality. She stood up immediately.

"Sorry boss, I just closed my eyes for a minute there. Ro-kun will need to rest for a month as per Dr. Yoshi's instructions to make a full recovery."

Her eyes turned cold again and her body rigid, as always. Reporting for duty.

Shen nodded. But Lina touched Ayu's arm.

"Ayu, why don't you go home and get some sleep. Shen and I can stay here for a few hours and you can come back today evening when we go to the ball."

Ayu quickly pulled her arm back.

"No need, madam. This is my job."

Her voice was frosty, causing Lina to frown.

'Why does she hate me so much?' Lina wondered to herself.

"Ayu, what happened yesterday after I went inside the University to pick madam up?"

Lina realised that they hadn't actually got the full story from Ayu about where the gunshot came from and if she knew who hurt Ro-kun.

Now that Shen had the opportunity to ask, Lina's attention was at its peak.

"Boss, after you went inside, Ro-kun and I waited outside the wall when the black car that was trailing madam raced past us. There was only one person inside who was driving and was able to pull off an accurate shot at Ro-kun while manoeuvring the vehicle and making a safe escape."

Shen was attentive as he listened to Ayu's recollection of the incident.

"Were you able to get the registration number of the vehicle?"

"The license plates were muddied and covered, which is why I wasn't able to get a read on it."

Shen continued the interrogation.

"Was this driver a man or a woman?"

"Don't know boss. The person had short hair and a smaller stature, but covered their face with a face mask."

Shen was quiet, deep in thought. Then he spoke slowly in a low voice.

"Clearly, this lackey isn't ordinary. They seem highly skilled. They weren't trying to kill Ro-kun, but merely send a warning with the message in the bullet. And yet, they got away with just one person carrying out this job."

Ayu stood stiff, her head hanging low.

The truth of the matter was slightly different, but she couldn't explain that to Shen and Lina.

She peered at Ro-kun who was still passed out, his face pale and his body weak.

A pang of guilt and sadness pierced her heart.
