Chapter 853: Chapter 854: Did you… go after Li Yuan?
“Li Yuan…”
Just when she thought she could no longer catch up with that car, the black SUV suddenly came to a stop.
Seeing the stopped car, Huo Yishan felt as if hope had been reignited. Ignoring her injured arm and knees, she sprung up and charged toward the black SUV!
“Miss, is there anything wrong?”
However, as she approached the car window and saw that the driver was a middle-aged man, she froze on the spot.
It wasn’t Li Yuan.
In the pouring rain, the man saw that she didn’t respond and couldn’t help but speak again, “Miss?”
The middle-aged man had stopped the car because he saw someone running behind him in the rearview mirror and thought she needed help.
Staring at the stranger’s face, Huo Yishan took a while to come back to her senses, letting the rain beat down on her.
“Sorry, I mistook you for someone else.”
The man took another look at her, puzzled, and then drove away.
Huo Yishan stood in the heavy rain, staring blankly as the black SUV, the same model as Li Yuan’s, disappeared into the downpour and night.
“Boom—”
Another loud clap of thunder sounded.
Meanwhile, inside the banquet hall, Gu Qiangwei, upon seeing the torrential downpour outside the window, couldn’t help but worry about her friend. She quickly grabbed an umbrella and rushed out!
After searching for a long time, she finally found Huo Yishan standing in the downpour at the hotel parking lot exit.
“Yishan!”
Without caring about her dirty dress hem, Gu Qiangwei hurried over!
The bloodstains on her arms and knees had long been washed away by the rain, but the clearly abraded skin from the fall was still visible.
“Yishan, are you hurt?”
She covered Huo Yishan entirely with the umbrella and embraced her, heading towards the hotel.
Huo Yishan walked as if in a daze, letting Gu Qiangwei lead her to the hotel.
Once inside the rest room, Gu Qiangwei personally dried her off and changed her into a clean set of clothes, then treated her injuries with medicine.
“Yishan, did you… go to chase after Li Yuan?”
From the sofa, Huo Yishan lifted her eyes to glance at Gu Qiangwei, “No.”
Gu Qiangwei was startled. She hadn’t gone to find Li Yuan?
Then why was she standing out in the heavy rain?
Aside, Qin Sijue stared at her, then walked out of the rest room and dialed Li Yuan’s number in the quiet hallway.
However, even after the call connected, no one answered.
Meanwhile, in the darkness of the night, a black limited edition Porsche CarreraGT raced through the heavy rain at almost two hundred miles per hour!
In his mind, he could still see Huo Yishan dancing with someone else, seemingly unable to hear the ringing phone in his grasp.
Twenty minutes later, the black Porsche stopped at the gate of his private villa.
On the other side, seeing the call go unanswered, Qin Sijue furrowed his brows slightly, helpless to do anything but return to the rest room.
With the heavy rain, Qin Sijue and Gu Qiangwei’s wedding had also come to a perfect end.
“Achoo—”
From the sofa, although she had changed into clean clothes and her hair was dry, Huo Yishan couldn’t help but sneeze!
“Are you catching a cold? Let’s go to the hospital!” Seeing her sneeze and injured, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help but worry.
Huo Yishan sniffled, seemingly regaining her composure, “It’s fine, I’ll just take some medicine as a precaution when I get back.”
Looking at the time, it was already half-past nine. Huo Yishan removed the towel from her body and stood up from the sofa.
