Zhan Yao?
Mo Weiyi had only met him twice.
Although they had quite a chat the second time they met, they hadnât been in contact since.
He was cheerful, witty, and an entirely different type of person from Xiao Yebai.
But she was not in the mood to chat at this moment.
Especially since this man, was a friend of Xiao Yebai.
âWeiyi.â Mrs. Xu mistakenly thought it was Xiao Yebai who called, and hurriedly said, âWhy donât you answer the call?â
Mo Weiyi glanced at her grandma, and then reluctantly slid her finger to answer, âHello.â
âLittle Princess, where are you?â asked Zhan Yao.
Mo Weiyi replied, âIâm in the countryside.â
âCountryside? What the hell? Donât you know Yebai is in the hospital?â
The moment she heard these words, Mo Weiyiâs pupils contracted sharply, âWhat happened to him?â
Her whole body instantly tensed up.
Her voice even trembled slightly.
âOh shit, it seems like you genuinely didnât know.â Zhan Yao cursed, âI thought, how come this guy is almost dead and youâre nowhere to be seen.â
âWhat did you say?â Mo Weiyi turned deathly pale.
In the next second.
âHahaha, gotcha! Did I scare you?â
Mo Weiyi was silent.â
âDonât worry, he isnât dead. Heâs still hanging in there. The doctor said itâs severe gastric bleeding due to excessive drinking. If it was any later, he might not have made it, he needs to stay in the hospital now for observations. Heâs not awake yet, you better come over now, Nangong Hospital room 2109, gotta go.â
After finishing his sentence, Zhan Yao hung up.
âWeiyi, whatâs wrong?â Mrs. Xu hurriedly asked.
Mo Weiyi sat there, still feeling dazed, for a long moment, she lifted her head to look at the elderly woman. âGrandma, I need to go back.â
Hearing these words, Mrs. Xu did not try to stop her or ask the reason why. Instead, she smiled comfortingly,â Youâre even earlier than I expected.â

Nangong Hospital.
In the corridor, Zhan Yao ended the call on his cellphone and pushed open a room door.
âOh, youâre awake?â
The man on the hospital bed furrowed his brows and looked over.
âLook how worn out you are, tsk, tsk, tsk.â
Zhan Yao walked over and started to reprimand him, âDid something distress you? You drank so much! Do you deliberately want to make life difficult for me? If you really died on me, wouldnât your Little Princess have to come to me for revenge? Honestly, I think you did it on purpose.â
To be honest, Zhan Yao was really scared.
Halfway through the drinking, suddenly, he started vomiting blood⦠can you believe it?
Normally, Xiao Yebai could handle his liquor very well, Zhan Yao had known him for many years and never seen him drunk, no matter how much he drank, he always kept his cool, but who would have thoughtâ¦
He was merely putting up with it!
The doctor just informed him that heâs been suffering from a stomach ailment for many years, he canât drink or stay up late anymoreâ¦
âYou can go now.â Xiao Yebai said indifferently.
He had already changed into a clean hospital gown, with an IV drip inserted in the back of his left hand. Despite all of this, he still bore an intimidating, holier-than-thou look, that suggested he was irritable.
Zhan Yao instantly became more upset, âIâm going to leave, do you think I want to stay here to take care of you? Ha, dream on!â
Xiao Yebai didnât respond, he just turned his face away haughtily.
Zhan Yao was irritated.
Then he abruptly declared, âI just called the Little Princess.â
Sure enough, Xiao Yebai immediately turned his face back.
ââ¦â Zhan Yao purposely didnât speak.
ââ¦â Xiao Yebai remained silent as well.
The room felt quiet.
In the end.
Zhan Yao couldnât keep up the act, âDamn it, arenât you curious about what she said?â
Xiao Yebaiâs thin lips opened, âWhat did she say?â
Zhan Yao again:ââ¦â
Really, itâs unbearable.
For this stinking kid, it took several beatings just to squeeze out a fart, he really didnât understand how the Little Princess had managed to put up with him all these years?
Because he had known Xiao Yebai for seven years now, and often couldnât help but feel the urge⦠to want to kill him!
âNothing much.â Zhan Yao grimaced, âShe said she was in the countryside, and canât come over. Told you to listen to the doctor and take care of yourself.â
Upon hearing these words, the manâs handsome face remained unmoved, showing no signs of disappointment, not even a flicker in his eyes.
Zhan Yao didnât care, he smirked and said arrogantly, âThen just listen to your wifeâs advice. Take care of yourself here. Iâm going first.â
Xiao Yebai promptly turned his face away again.
Zhan Yao:ââ¦â
Damn it, you wait and see!
â¦
Leaving the hospital room, in the corridor, Zhan Yao stopped, and dialed a number.
âTian Ye, donât say I didnât treat you as a friend. Yebai is in the hospital now and needs someone to take care of him.â
âWhat? Are you talking about Miss Mo? Oh, she seems to be in the countryside, too far to come over. Otherwise, do you think I would have told you?â
âI also care about my brother. I have to go back to the police station. Heâs alone in the hospital and really needs care. Do you want me to call the Mo family?â
âAlright, then hurry over. Nangong Hospital room 2109.â
After hanging up the phone, Zhan Yao grinned like a crafty old fox.
Damn it, the shock he got from that damn kidâs in the bar tonight! If he didnât do something, how could he justify the cold sweat he broke out into?

On the other side.
Mo Weiyi didnât even know how she got into the car.
She just stated the address, and Rong An drove as she sat in the back seat, lost in her thoughts.
The night was bleak.
The car was running fast. Looking through the car window, she could clearly see her own face.
Pale, devoid of any life, no more the sunny and lively girl she used to be.
She could barely recognize herself.
Was this really her?
