Yan Qing’s voice was filled with indescribable excitement. It had been too long since someone had come looking for trouble, and his new weapons finally had a chance to be used. He was overjoyed.

Listening to Yan Qing’s excited words, Wen Xin lifted her hand to rub her somewhat aching temples. It seemed today was not a good day for discussions. Better to wait until he was less busy.

“Then you go ahead. After you’re done, tell me who arranged for those blind people to come.”

“Alright, boss. We’ll definitely catch some alive and interrogate them thoroughly. I wonder who’s not afraid of death to trouble us like this!”

Yan Qing was in a state of extreme excitement and abruptly ended the call.

Looking at her phone that had been hung up, Wen Xin smiled lightly, finding it amusing. Letting these warmongers live a peaceful life seemed like a disservice to them. She hadn’t expected that someone causing trouble would excite them so much.

Wen Xin logged into the dark web on her phone. It had been a long time since she had seen Wei Shisheng post any bounties. She wondered if Wei Shisheng had found the Shadow Alliance or had given up on the search. Something felt off, and she wondered if Wei Shisheng was planning something unpleasant.

Wen Xin posted a message on the dark web seeking information about Geng Qiu’s disappearance, which she found overly strange.

She had been too busy lately to concern herself with Geng Qiu’s whereabouts, and by the time she realized Geng Qiu was no longer in Ice City, she had lost all leads on her.

She wanted to know who would take Geng Qiu away and what value Geng Qiu still had to them.

Currently, Geng Qiu was locked on the top floor of a private hospital by Geng Zewei. Sitting by the window, she stared blankly at the bustling streets outside, not knowing where she was or even the date. She only knew her days were numbered.

Her health was deteriorating daily, and now, just walking from the bed to the window nearly exhausted all her strength. She missed the times when Su Li and Geng Shikui doted on her.

Suddenly, the door to her room opened, and Geng Qiu turned her head to see the familiar yet strange woman who had brought her here.

“Congratulations on surviving twenty days. I’ve been coordinating with the hospital to find a suitable liver donor for you, and finally, we’ve found one. You’ll soon be able to undergo a liver transplant surgery.”

The woman walked over to Geng Qiu, looking at her with a jaundiced complexion, and smiled warmly.

“A liver transplant?” Hearing that she could continue to live with a transplant, Geng Qiu laughed, but her laughter was filled with sarcasm.

“Why would Geng Zewei be so kind to let me live comfortably? I must be the person he hates the most. The hardships he endured in his childhood were all because of me. If I hadn’t deliberately plotted against him and framed him, my father might not have been so cruel to him.”

Geng Qiu’s voice was weak, barely audible, as if she was muttering to herself.

The hellish days she had endured had worn away her pride and edges. Living like this was worse than giving her a quick death.

“I don’t want to continue treatment. For the sake of our blood relation, I beg him to let me die. Living like this is too painful.”

By the end, Geng Qiu’s emotions completely collapsed. No one knew how she had survived the past twenty days without even the chance to die.

Watching Geng Qiu curl up into a ball and sob uncontrollably, the woman squinted her eyes, chuckling coldly. Is this all it takes to break her? This was just the beginning.

“Oh, there’s one more thing I want to ask you. Do you know Wen Xin? What’s her relationship with Geng Zewei?”

Hearing the woman mention Wen Xin, Geng Qiu stopped crying, looked up from her arms, and faced the woman. “You know Wen Xin too? It’s her who got me into this mess. As for her relationship with Geng Zewei…”

Geng Qiu paused, feigning mystery, then wiped the tears from her face and started bargaining with the woman.

“Give me a phone, and I’ll tell you about the relationship between Wen Xin and Geng Zewei.”

The woman eyed Geng Qiu, narrowing her eyes slightly. She had already investigated Geng Qiu’s social connections. Now that the Geng family was gone and the Zhao family was unlikely to intervene on behalf of Geng Qiu, even if she had a phone, there was no one who could help her. Thus, she was not worried at all.

“Okay, I’ll have my assistant prepare a phone for you right now.”

Saying this, the woman took out her phone, called her assistant, and arranged for a phone to be prepared for Geng Qiu.

After giving instructions, the woman looked at Geng Qiu, whose emotions had stabilized, seemingly reigniting her will to live.

“Wen Xin is a girl from a poor county, very beautiful, and has some connection with my mother. She was raised by my grandmother from a young age. Geng Zewei likes her. From the moment Geng Zewei first saw Wen Xin, I could tell he liked her.”

“Not long ago, when Geng Zewei returned to Ice City, he even proposed to her, but she rejected him.”

Geng Qiu spoke indifferently, sharing everything she knew as requested by the woman, but the woman’s expression turned ugly…

“The phone will be delivered to you. Stay alive and wait for the surgery.”

The woman looked at Geng Qiu mentioning Wen Xin with hatred. She suddenly realized that Geng Qiu might be a good ally to remove Wen Xin.

“Are you planning to take action against Wen Xin? I know you like Geng Zewei, but Geng Zewei likes Wen Xin. If you want to remove Wen Xin, I can help you…”

Geng Qiu’s voice was weak, but her eagerness was apparent.

Not being able to eliminate Wen Xin was her biggest regret. If she could remove Wen Xin, she would have no regrets even if she died…n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The woman stopped her steps to leave, turned her head to look at Geng Qiu, “Then cooperate well with the treatment. I’ll give you this opportunity!” After speaking, the woman opened the door and left Geng Qiu’s room.

Geng Qiu sat on the windowsill, looking at the view outside, reigniting her hope for life. It seems she could still live a good life!

Late at night, when Mu Chengxi returned, it was already past 2 a.m. After taking a shower, he tiptoed to the bed and climbed in.

As soon as he lay down, Wen Xin naturally hugged Mu Chengxi, nestling in his arms.

Mu Chengxi gently held Wen Xin’s cold hand, feeling her cold feet against his thigh, and couldn’t help frowning..
