Anhao didnât care what these strange people were communicating with their eyes. She also didnât care about the gentleness and care that the man who claimed to be her father had towards her and the coldness and arrogance he had towards others.
She only stared at the only person in the room who made her speak reluctantly. She stared at An Ping.âZuo Hancheng is still alive, right? He was only injured? Is he just unwilling to see me because heâs injured? Am I right? He must still be alive, right?â
âAnhao.â An Ping looked at her daughter, who was pretending to be calm, with heartache in her eyes. She raised her hand and held her shoulder.âHancheng, he alreadyâ¦â
Anhao stared into her eyes and suddenly said,ââEnough, no need to say anymore!â
An Pingâs voice paused, but her eyes were filled with heartache and worry.
âIf you want to say that Zuo Hancheng is dead, then you donât have to say anything. I wonât believe you.âAnhao slowly raised her hand and pushed away An Pingâs hand on her shoulder. Her gaze no longer lingered on anyone in the ward.âI want to be alone for a while. Please leave.â
â Anhao, you have to accept the truth. The area within a 300-mile radius of the farm was destroyed in an instant. Thereâs no chance of survivalâ¦â
âGet out!â Anhao looked at Anping coldly.â My mother died in front of me, but sheâs still alive and kicking here after so many years. What right do you have to make me accept the truth?ââ
âAnhaoâ¦â An Ping immediately sobbed.â Mom was wrong. Mom really didnât know that you and the Gu family would end up like this. Mom really just wanted to protect youâ¦â
âGet out!â Anhao suddenly raised her finger and pointed in the direction of the door. Her chest was heaving up and down in anger. She suddenly looked at everyone in the ward and said,âCan any of you tell me where Zuo Hancheng is? If the answer is the same, I will accept the reality, then leave! Get out!â
âAnhao, donât be like this. Donât be angry and ruin your health. Youâve just woken up. Take care of your childâ¦â Mrs. Andersonâs heart ached as she walked over.
âIâm not your child. I have nothing to do with you. I donât have a father or a mother. I donât have any grandparents either. I only have myself. Iâm just an illegitimate daughter who was inexplicably abandoned in China and in the Gu family. Iâm just a small troublemaker who canât be seen in the light. What right do you have to tell me to accept the truth!â
Anhaoâs eyes were as cold as ice.ââI only have Zuo Hancheng in this world. I only have Zuo Hancheng! As long as itâs not Zuo Hancheng, I wonât see anyone. Get out!â
As Anhao spoke, she grabbed everything she could grab and threw it in their direction. The middle-aged man in the black trench coat caught a cup of water nimbly. When Anhao threw the pillow in their direction, he frowned as he caught the pillow.âGive her some time to calm down.â
Anhao heard the manâs voice and had no idea where he had come from.
He did not know who he was.
He actually shamelessly boasted that there was one less man in this world to love her, and he would love her. How ridiculous! Ridiculous!
In her twisted life, who had ever seen these people? Who cared whether she was alive or dead? Who taught her how to behave? Who would smash the report card on her head and scold her for being useless because her exam results were always zero? Who would even think of ways to make her make up for it?
Who would stand up for her when she was called to the principalâs office to educate him? Who would believe her explanation? Who would back her up time and time again? Who would make up for her 20th birthday? Who would send her away with a fake divorce in a time of crisis and endure not seeing her for three years?
Who would pave the way for her life? Who would tell her to cry in my arms when she was bleeding and crying!
In this world, other than Zuo Hancheng who would pick her up from the mud and help her clean up, who else was indispensable in her life?
She wasnât even her mother, let alone these people who had nothing to do with her.!
An Ping stayed by Anhaoâs side and refused to leave. The man suddenly helped An Ping up with a cold expression. At the same time, he berated the others in the ward and asked them to leave.
Anhao didnât know what they were talking about. She didnât care about the manâs dignity, nor did she care about his identity.
When everyone walked out, An Ping wanted to turn around and say something when she closed the ward door, but Anhao didnât look in that direction at all. She just stared straight out the window.
She remembered that D seemed to be outside just now. Although she didnât have much strength, she still forced herself to get off the bed with what little strength she had left.
Fortunately, she was not injured. However, when she woke up, her head and throat were throbbing. She took a few deep breaths and barely grabbed anything she could grab as she walked to the door step by step. After making sure that those people had gone far away and were not guarding outside, and that there was no sound of An Ping crying or the An family arguing outside, she slowly turned the door handle and pulled it open.
D was still standing there like a statue.
When Anhao saw D, her cold gaze softened instantly. She asked softly,ââHow long have you been here?â
âI will stay here as long as Mrs. Zuo is here.âDâs answer was very straightforward. There was no fluctuation in his voice.
Anhao looked at his clothes.ââYou were driving at that time. When you carried me out of the car, your clothes were burnt and your hands were burned. Why didnât you treat your injuries?â
âMr. Zuo has instructed us to protect Mrs. Zuo no matter when or where.âDâs voice suddenly sounded a little dry, but it was still so rhythmic, like a well-trained warrior.
Anhao looked at him silently for a long time before she smiled and said,ââThey were all lying to me just now. I know that Zuo Hancheng is only seriously injured. He must be unwilling to see me because heâs too seriously injured and heâs afraid that Iâll worry.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMrs. Zuoâ¦â D looked at her with his dark eyes and said in a clear voice,âAt that time, only our car was the fastest to escape, but within a minute after that, our car activated the automatic detonation system because half of it was burned.â
Anhao looked at him silently, her hands clutching the door frame tightly. She almost didnât have the courage to continue listening.
â Those arenât ordinary explosives. Whatâs buried under the explosives is a national-grade weapon that hasnât been destroyed in time and has been buried for many years. Even if the power isnât enough to blow up the entire New York City, the wilderness within 300 miles has been instantly razed to the ground. Anyone there willâ¦â Thereâs no corpse left.
