Chapter 124: Miscarriage

Ten minutes later, Tong Xiaoguo entered with five or six burly men. Qin Ling was being watched by one of the men. Her appearance immediately made all the injured men in the room forget their pain. Noticing their heated gazes, Tong Xiaoguo coughed uncomfortably; when she saw Du and Hu, her expression darkened as she immediately understood the situation.

"Stop acting like you're perfect, you fool. Look at you now, lucky it was just a strained back." Du Bin applied medicinal wine to Hu Guozheng’s waist and rubbed it aggressively, like a massage. The room was filled with pig-like squeals: "You don't understand, this is a perfect movement and a perfect experience. Could you be a bit lighter? It hurts!"

Qin Ling asked Li Ning in confusion, "What are those two grown men doing in there?"
"An idiot hurt his back trying to show off." Qin Ling could only offer a bitter smile.

Seeing Helen staring fixedly at Qin Ling beside her, Tong Xiaoguo grabbed his ear. "It seems you haven't changed your lecherous ways."
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..." Helen looked at her, aggrieved, and muttered, "How did this woman become so violent? Heavens! Could someone please take her off my hands?"
Tong Xiaoguo was surrounded by a dark aura. "What did you say?"
"Nothing, nothing! You look much better than you did a few days ago," Helen said earnestly, a chill running down his back.
"Oh? So you're saying I didn't look good before?" Tong Xiaoguo cracked her knuckles and walked toward him slowly.
Helen broke into a cold sweat. "A girl changes eighteen times before she's grown; you've always been beautiful."

Knowing he was just flattering her, Tong Xiaoguo didn't press the issue. She signaled to him, "Brother Helen, take the brothers and go get treated. Leave this to me."
Helen had intended to stay—after all, she was the sister of his late sworn brother—but seeing her dismiss everyone, he didn't linger. Dapao led the brothers out of the recreation center, leaving only the uninjured men to guard the entrance. The hall suddenly felt cold and empty. After washing his hands, Du Bin helped Hu Guozheng out. Seeing the troublemakers had appeared, Tong Xiaoguo brought Qin Ling to them.

"I hear you are quite powerful. I’d like to see it for myself."
Du Bin hesitated. Now that Hu Guozheng had a strained back, he wasn't fit for strenuous exercise, and his abilities weren't suitable for civilians. He looked at Li Ning, who understood his thoughts and said, "My marksmanship is excellent, but close-quarters combat is my weakness. I think you can handle dealing with a defenseless girl."

Du Bin knew she was mocking his lack of strength. Despite his injuries, he felt he should be more than a match for a woman. "How do you want to compete?"
Tong Xiaoguo smiled slightly, and a force instantly surged to cover her body. Seeing her use her ability, the others gasped in surprise. Watching their stunned expressions, Tong Xiaoguo asked in confusion, "Are you surprised?"
The three nodded. Seeing their bewildered looks, Tong Xiaoguo sighed and said, "As super-powered individuals, there is an energy fluctuation that can detect the presence of others nearby. Did you not know that?"
"I see." The two men had a sudden realization. At that moment, Du Bin noticed Qin Ling’s pale complexion and immediately stepped forward to support her, asking with concern, "Lingling, you look terrible. What happened?"
"My stomach hurts so much... it’s unbearable."
Qin Ling was drenched in cold sweat. Hearing her mention her stomach, Du Bin remembered she was pregnant. Seeing blood dripping from her inner thighs, Du Bin shouted angrily at Tong Xiaoguo, "What did you do to her?"
"Oh, I just started a live stream and found someone to pretend to rape her," Tong Xiaoguo said with an air of indifference, showing no hint of remorse.
"If anything happens to the child in her womb, I won't let you off!" Leaving this threat behind, Du Bin picked up Qin Ling and rushed out of the recreation center. Having learned she was pregnant, Tong Xiaoguo began to feel a twinge of guilt.

At the hospital, Qin Ling was rushed into surgery. Du Bin asked the doctor about the cause, and the doctor explained that shock and physical trauma had threatened the pregnancy, showing early signs of a miscarriage.
Du Bin paced back and forth in the corridor, feeling deeply guilty. If not for him, she would never have been involved. Now, whether the baby could be saved was in question.
Sitting on a bench, Li Ning watched his anxious demeanor and whispered to herself, "He’s really acting the part. Anyone who didn't know would think he was the father."

At the same time, Zeng Yilong and the armed police had arrived near the airport. Acting on a tip from a taxi driver who had transported a dangerous person there, Zeng Yilong signaled his bodyguards. After some diligent searching, they finally tracked them to the hospital.
Over a dozen armed police officers participated in the arrest operation, led by Li Ping, the head of the Special Investigation Unit. He had arrived from Guangzhou to take command. After delivering a long-winded opening statement, he mentioned the target of the arrest. When he revealed they were going to capture Du Bin, everyone looked surprised, which he found quite strange.
Only after learning the reason did he understand: Du Bin was incredibly strong. As armed police, they relied on their strength, and since receiving the R-vaccine, their abilities had been enhanced. They were excited to have a rare opportunity to duel with a master.

When he heard the doctor’s regretful tone, Du Bin’s heart went cold. He was filled with guilt. Just as he was about to go to her ward, he saw Hu Guozheng running over in a panic. Hu had received simple treatment for his back pain at the hospital, but he had accidentally seen many police cars entering the grounds outside: "There are many police officers outside; they must be here to catch us."
Du Bin looked down from the window. Many police officers were clearing the area. Tong Xiaoguo saw their panicked expressions and teased, "I believe the news reports saying you are dangerous figures now. So you eloped with someone else's wife, and now her husband has brought the police to catch you in the act."
"Even jokes have limits. You don't understand the bond I have with her," Du Bin glared at her.
"Fine. As compensation, I will arrange for the Snake Gang brothers to protect her secretly."
After much internal struggle, Du Bin nodded. He understood that Qin Ling was no longer in immediate danger. He exchanged a glance with Hu Guozheng and ran toward the back exit. Li Ning, who hadn't wanted to get involved, decided to follow, curious to see the effects of the R-vaccine herself.

While the police were still surrounding the hospital, the three climbed over the fence. Hu Guozheng grabbed a car parked on the roadside, and after hotwiring it, he lay down in the back seat. "Old Du, you drive."
Just as Du Bin was about to enter the driver's seat, he saw an off-road vehicle passing on the road. The parties locked eyes, and Du Bin immediately dove into the car and sped off.
Li Ping grabbed his radio and shouted to the armed police, "Suspects spotted! They have stolen a Volkswagen and are heading toward the Hospital Avenue."
Most of the police force gave chase in the direction Li Ping reported. Countless police cars appeared one after another, all of them determined to capture the two criminals. Du Bin looked at the police cars appearing in all directions, realizing they were being cornered into an alley.

While all the police were pursuing Du Bin and the others, Zeng Yilong arrived at Qin Ling’s ward, looking heartbroken. Seeing her in tears, he held her close. "Lingling, it's okay. I know you've been through a lot, don't cry."
He had learned from the doctor that she had suffered a miscarriage, and his hatred for Du Bin deepened. Originally, his mission was to kill Du Bin secretly, but because of Qin Ling, he hadn't taken it seriously. Now, not only had his wife suffered a miscarriage because of him, but he also had a debt of revenge to pay. He not only used his own bodyguards to hunt down Du Bin but also collaborated with "Mr. Li," the kingpin of Doumen, promising him eight doses of the R-vaccine as payment. Now, Du and Hu were not only facing pursuit by the law but also the hunt of the underworld.
