Chapter 39 - Bad Guys

Lena aimed to slap his head one more time but he dodged it as he stood up from the seat.

"You think you are so smart huh?" She threw him one of her pillows. She was angry because if what he said was true… then it was she who saved herself by making them order the damn FOOD!

"It was me who told them to eat. ME!"

"Okay, okay. You don't need to get so hyped up." Ming Zhao calmed her down but he was silently laughing at her stubbornness.

Lena finally calmed down. "I heard…. I heard that the driver died." She quietly said. She was sad.

Ming Zhao could see that she was more depressed over this issue. "Shot in the head. He died before I even arrived there."

"Did he have any family?"

"None." He saw that Lena was still looking down and sad. He sat back down on the chair beside the bed. "You shouldn't worry too much. The driver was not a good man anyways?"

As excepted, Lena looked back up at Ming Zhao with a what-are-you-talking-about face.

"He's a wanted man for a bank robbery and murder."

"What?!" Lena recalled the driver. He looked like a father working hard for his family. He was so kind too!

"I don't know if you want to call it a coincidence or not, but he had been hiding for 8 years now. We only found out when his fingerprints were run into the system for confirming his identity with his driver's license."

Ming Zhao was a bit happy that Lena seemed less sad now. He poked her in the forehead. "Tsk… I don't know if I should stay away from you or not. You attract a lot of bad guys."

"Me?!" Lena was hyped up again. "You are a bad guy!"

"I won't bother you anymore. You need to eat and the doctor will check on you again."

"Are you leaving?" Lena asked.

"Why? You want me to stay longer?" He cheekily smiled back at her.

"No. You are dismissed."

"Yes, your majesty." He bowed for roleplay. "Ah, your mother came to check on you before. She left you a few changes of clothes and some personal stuff. It's in that bag."

Ming Zhao pointed out the bag that was on the sofa. Lena nodded to confirm that she heard him, and she lay back on her side to rest some more. He silently left.

Lena's heart cried a bit. "I was about to kiss Senior Han *wuuu*"

She rested for a bit before walking to check what her mother left for her. She found her phone and excitedly grabbed it and went back to the bed.

She checked her phone and no calls or messages from Gary. She tried calling him a few times again but was met with voicemail.

'Did something happen to him?' Lena was a bit worried.

The Doctor knocked and entered the room.

"Hello, I am Dr. Linda. I will just do a quick check on you."

Lena nodded. The doctor did a few tests on Lena. After 15 minutes, they were done.

"How am I?"

"You are physically fine. You can be discharged tomorrow morning if you want."

"Really?"

"However, I recommend you talking to a psychiatrist."

Lena stared at the doctor with no reaction. The Doctor was a bit scared. She knew who Lena Shen was and was trying her best to gentle and professional about this topic.

"It is not required. And I know you are a strong woman. If you do not want to talk to a professional psychiatrist, you should still speak to someone about the trauma you went through." Dr. Linda smiled nicely.

"I'll think about it. Thank you."

The doctor left and Lena looked back at her cell phone. She sent a text to Gary before hoping to go for a shower.
