Sheng Jian effortlessly hoisted his a.s.sistant off the floor, taking a step forward to leave the room. However, just as he lifted his foot, a frail voice emanated from behind him.

Rong Qi lifted her hand to prop herself up. Her complexion was as pale as parchment. Dont you dare harm Shen. Otherwise, youll have to deal with me. Sheng Jian laughed in disbelief. Rong Qi, are you kidding me? Look around, whos bullying who here?

Rong Qis eyelids slightly closed, as if she hadnt heard him. Frustrated, Sheng Jian paced around the room, hands on hips.

Lu Chengzhou studied the medical report in his hand, his expression a kaleidoscope of emotions. He said, See for yourself. Stop provoking Little Qi. She cant take any more of this.

Im no doctor! How should I know what this means? Sheng Jian retorted angrily but nonetheless took the report from him.

Sheng Jians hand trembled as he skimmed through it. Is this for real?

Lu Chengzhou nodded gravely, a tangle of conflicting feelings writ large on his face.

Rong Qi struggled to sit up. Take me with you. Shen wont stop until he sees me.

You need to rest, said Lu Chengzhou, sternly.

Sheng Jian lost his temper, too. With your frail health, youll just be cannon fodder. Stay here; Ill handle it.

Take me. You guys dont understand him, Rong Qi insisted, determined to leave the bed.

Another patient refusing doctors orders. Lu Chengzhou felt as though his trigeminal nerve was aching from irritation. Considering that Ye Nanshen had just brandished artillery at people simply because Rong Qi had gone missing for a few hours, he shuddered involuntarily.

Lu Chengzhou couldnt imagine what would happen to him if Ye Nanshen found out that he had drawn those blood from Rong Qi.

Caught in a stalemate, Sheng Jian had no choice but to relent. Angrily, he wrapped her up and lifted her horizontally. Youre so d.a.m.n stubborn; youll work yourself into the grave.

For once, Rong Qi remained silent.

Outside the Sheng residence, another ten minutes had elapsed.

Ye Nanshens patience had worn dangerously thin, and his face grew colder with each pa.s.sing moment. There was still no word from his investigators. It was as though Rong Qi had vanished from the face of the earth.

His menacing aura intensified. Raising his hand, he prepared to attack once more. Just then, someone from the Sheng residence shouted, Hes back, Mr. Sheng is back!

True to their word, a private car appeared, driving toward them. It came to a steady halt not far from Ye Nanshen. The driver and a.s.sistant, taken aback by the situation, were frozen in disbelief. Sheng Jian stepped out of the vehicle. He stared at Ye Nanshen, then at his two grand mansions, now reduced to ash. It felt like his internal organs were all aching in rage.

Ye Nanshen, have you lost your mind? What have I ever done to you?

Ye Nanshen responded coldly, Wheres Rong Qi?

Fed up, Sheng Jian was about to retort when a voice emerged from the van.

Shen.

Rong Qi steadied herself on the car door and got out. The moment Ye Nanshen laid eyes on her, his icy demeanor began to thaw, ever so slightly.

Little Qi.

Rus.h.i.+ng over, Ye Nanshen pulled Rong Qi into his arms. Why are your hands so cold? Why is your face so pale? Did he do something to you?

Ye Nanshens face was still a portrait of icy disdain.

Rong Qi shook her head softly, resting against Ye Nanshen. No. I fainted and Mr. Sheng took me to the hospital. I didnt want to worry you, so we kept it quiet. Im sorry, Shen. I made you worry anyway.

Ye Nanshen tightened his grip around Rong Qi and said, As long as youre okay.

Touched, Rong Qi reciprocated Ye Nanshens embrace.

Sheng Jian watched, feeling rather envious. He said, So, Ye Nanshen, now that youve seen her, are you going to stop pointing your artillery at me?

Ye Nanshen squinted his eyes and effortlessly lifted Rong Qi in his arms. He replied, Who told you to keep secrets from me? Ill take Little Qi home now. Ill even permit you, an old loner, to join us for dinner.

With that, Ye Nanshen whisked Rong Qi into his car and drove away..
