Chapter 274 - Miss Su, Your Friend Has Met With an Accident

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“What plans do you have for the near future?”

Su Qingcheng suddenly changed the topic and asked. Mu Chenyan chuckled without saying a word.

“I suppose you already have a plan?”

Su Qingcheng saw through this meticulous minded woman. It was impossible for her to commit herself to the Yuan family muddleheaded just like that.

“Everything is still unknown.” “I’m not sure when my mother will wake up, and I’m not sure what kind of news will she bring to me. Hence, Yuan Xuan and I are still in an uncertain state...”

Su Qingcheng was about to speak when the persistent call came through her handphone again. The woman was extremely irked.

Picking up the call, her tone was not pleasant. “Shao Yibai, aren’t you a bother?”

“Sorry, is this Miss Su?” The other party was not Shao Yibai, but it was the gentle voice of a male. “Your friend has been involved in an accident. Only your number has been dialed dozens of times on his mobile phone...”

Before waiting for the other party to finish, Su Qingcheng’s face had paled. With trembling lips, she interrupted the other party’s words. “Hurry, tell me, where are you?”

...

The man who had called Su Qingcheng was a doctor at Sheng Yu Hospital.

The man put down the phone, let out a sigh, and glanced at the patient lying in the hospital bed. After leaving some instructions to the nurse, he turned around and went to attend to other matters.

Su Qingcheng rushed to Sheng Yu hastily, and Mu Chenyan followed behind.

The two women had been busy for the entire day, and they were somewhat tired. However, hearing that Shao Yibai met with a car accident, how could they still be thinking of taking a rest?

Yuan Xuan and Tian Qi were waiting in the corridor outside of the neurosurgery ward. Su Qingcheng was quite emotional, and the woman who had always been calm and steady lunged at Tian Qi upon seeing him. Su Qingcheng had never cried out loud before, but now she could not control herself as she held Tian Qi tightly.

“Dummy, is Shao Yibai dead?” “The news reported that the car was squashed flat...”

While Mu Chenyan was driving on the road, Su Qingcheng had used her phone to search about the accident on Han Xing Street, which was the area she was living in.

The blue Ferrari was sandwiched between two heavy-duty engineering vehicles. Mu Chenyan did not see the picture as she was driving, but the expression on Su Qingcheng’s face depicted how terrible the scene must have been.

“It must have been because... I didn’t pick up Shao Yibai’s call, so he went looking for me... Shao Yibai’s dead... I don’t want to live too...”

Su Qingcheng embraced Tian Qi as she wept. Tian Qi had a confused look as he mumbled, “Daisy, don’t be upset. Go in and take a look first...”

Mu Chenyan also felt sad. She had just heard of Shao Yibai’s accident, and she was now watching Su Qingcheng sobbing her heart out. She felt a lump in her throat, and tears began to fill the corner of her eyes.

Yuan Xuan embraced her at the side and whispered, “If I’m dead, will you cry like this?”

“Yuan Xuan, scoot off...”

Mu Chenyan sobbed intermittently and could not understand a man’s world. His best friend and cousin had died, yet he still had the mood to joke around.

Su Qingcheng was dragged into the ward by Tian Qi. The woman was bawling non-stop and refused to enter no matter what. “I don’t dare to take a look... I’m afraid that when I see him... I wouldn’t want to live anymore...”

Tian Qi laughed. “He’s not dead. If he’s dead, would he still be in the ward? “He would have been at the mortuary...”

Su Qingcheng thought that it made sense. Who said that Shao Yibai had died?

Had she been crying till she was dazed? To be exact, she was frightened until her mind had gone blank!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

What an irony that she was a cop, and how embarrassing it was for her to be crying indiscriminately as such!

Su Qingcheng wiped her tears away and sniffled, blushing from her irrationality. “Yeah... He’s not dead...”

Recalling those pictures, Su Qingcheng had lost her ability to think. This attested to the saying that being overly concerned would cause more confusion (TN: a Chinese proverb).

She pushed the ward door open and saw the man lying on the bed. His entire body was bandaged, looking like a mummy...

“Shao Yibai?”

The tears Su Qingcheng had held back surged out once more. She leaned forward and called out his name gently, touching the bandaged hand.

He seemed to have suffered serious injuries and was motionless. She had caused such a commotion, but he was not aware of any of it on the bed.

The doctor from earlier on had said that he had just undergone surgery. Only after that did he had the time to call her...

Su Qingcheng lifted her head and looked at Shao Yibai, whose head had been wrapped into the likes of a rice dumpling, and she wept uncontrollably.

“Shao Yibai!” “I’m sorry... It’s all because I was whimsy and didn’t pick up your call... You can’t die... What will happen to me if you’re dead?” “You’re the only one whom I’ve loved in my lifetime. If you die, how am I going to live for the rest of my life...”

Su Qingcheng lamented and cried at the same time. Her speech was incoherent, and her thoughts were all jumbled up.

It seemed that Shao Yibai had been in a coma for a while. No matter how Su Qingcheng wailed, and regardless of how sorrowful she was, there was still no reaction from the person in bed.

Mu Chenyan quietly wiped her tears and turned to ask Yuan Xuan, “Did he have surgery right after he was brought in?” “What did the doctor say?”

Yuan Xuan’s expression was bland. “I received a call about his accident before I reached home. When I arrived, the surgery was already over.”

Speaking of which, how were the doctors nowadays this bold as to not inform the family members before performing surgery?

Mu Chenyan stood on one side and looked suspiciously at Yuan Xuan and Tian Qi. The two appeared overly calm. Only Su Qingcheng who was crying her heart out was really feeling sad.

“Tian Qi!” Mu Chenyan shouted fiercely, causing Tian Qi to jump up in fright.

“Mistress... What’s... what’s the matter?”

Tian Qi was not good in adjusting to sudden changing circumstances, and he was confused from Mu Chenyan’s roar. Seeing Mu Chenyan’s grim face, he was at a loss.

“Go and call Shao Yibai from the next door!”

Mu Chenyan ordered abruptly.

Tian Qi was perplexed. His mind was filled with the words of Shao Yibai — never let the cat out of the bag!

However, Tian Qi did not have a clear understanding of the current situation, and he asked softly, “How do you know that Brother Shao is next door?”

Hearing that, Su Qingcheng stopped crying. She stood up, wiped her tears, and asked Tian Qi with a hoarse voice, “What’s going on?”

Did those cheesy plots that often appeared on TV actually happened to her?

Su Qingcheng coldly sneered and looked at the mummy on the bed. Was that not Shao Yibai?

“Daisy, I... I... have no idea too...”

Tian Qi was flustered. His sturdy figure seemingly shrunk into a ball, and his gaze avoided Su Qingcheng.

Su Qingcheng could not care less. She pushed aside Yuan Xuan and Tian Qi who were in the way and made a dash for the ward next door...

Yuan Xuan watched his own woman with interest and asked plainly, “How did Mistress notice that Shao Yibai’s accident was a sham?”

Mu Chenyan snorted and did not seem to want to answer him.

“The clothes you wore before leaving home in the morning; it was I who helped tie your necktie. I can still remember it clearly.” “Now it turns out that you’re in a different set of clothing when going home at night. You said that you weren’t home yet when you were informed of Shao Yibai’s accident.” “If you knew that Shao Yibai had a car accident, how would you be in the mood of going home to change your clothes?”

“Second, you and Tian Qi seemed to be too calm, especially the fact that Tian Qi did not express sadness but guilt. Tian Qi’s an obedient child, not a baddie like you guys are!” “Hence I concluded that this is a set up for Su Qingcheng!”
