His words were so sweet, like honey with added sugar, that Weiyi felt a little embarrassed.
In order to escape from her embarrassment, she tried to change the topic. âUm, have you found the mastermind behind the attack on you this time?â
As Shi Yuting ate his rice, his dark eyes suddenly became tainted with a sinister cold light.
âYes.â
âWho is it?â
Shi Yuting gently chewed on the food in his mouth. It was not until he had swallowed all of it that he spoken deeply and dangerously.
âShi Tiannan.â
Zuo Weiyiâs eyes widened.
It was Shi Tiannan again?!
âWhat do you plan to do?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He stared off into the distance.
âWeâll settle the scores once and for all!â
Zuo Weiyiâs heart sank as she heard his words.
âYou... youâre going to C Country again?â There was a hint of fear and uneasiness in her voice.
He turned her head and met her uneasy eyes. She knew what she was afraid of, so he gently touched her right cheek. âDonât worry, I said I wonât make you worry anymore.â
Despite his words, she still felt uneasy.
Attacking Yutingâs private plane meant that Shi Tiannan also had his own powerful forces. She was really afraid that he would disappear again.
âIâm going to the hospital in a while. You rest well at home.â He put down the bowl and chopsticks back into the tray.
Zuo Weiyi immediately thought of Xiangyi.
âAre you going to see Xiangyi?â
Shi Yuting nodded, and his handsome face suddenly became heavy.
âYes, his injury... is quite serious.â
Zuo Weiyi was shocked, able to sense the seriousness of Xiangyiâs injury based on the heaviness in Yutingâs expression. If it was not very serious, Shi Yuting would not have such an expression on his face.
What about Nuannuan?
âIâll go too!â She blurted out, a little worried about Nuannuan and Xiangyi.
Shi Yuting frowned and decisively rejected her. âNo!â
âIâm worried about Nuannuan!â
âDonât worry. With Shenghao around, Xiangyi wonât die. And Nuannuan will be fine.â
Zuo Weiyi couldnât help but hesitate.
He did make sense.
However, Xiangyi was now seriously injured in the hospital. Even if he did not die, wouldnât Nuannuan still be very worried?
...
Zuo Weiyi had not been able to sleep during Yutingâs disappearance. Now that he was back, she felt more at ease and easily fell asleep after her meal.
Shi Yuting brushed away a strand of hair off her face as he watched her sleep peacefully. Then, he bent down and planted a kiss on her forehead before he got up and left the bedroom.
At the hospital.
Shi Nuannuan had rushed to the hospital and waited outside the surgery door for nearly three hours. It was as if her heart had been cut into pieces.
This feeling was just like when she saw her father enter the operating theater six years ago. The heartache, panic, fear, and helplessness almost seem to swallow her whole into the darkness!
The long wait passed as the door of the operating theater finally opened.
âDoctor! How is he?!â She rushed over anxiously. Her beautiful face was crying like a kitten.
However, before the doctor could say anything, Xiangyi was pushed out from the operating theater behind him.
Shi Nuannuan looked behind the doctor and stared at the stretcher.
âIâm sorry, weâve tried our best.â
