Qin Muchen spoke of many things; his low voice echoed through the silent corridor in the middle of the night.
Bai Jingshu saw the vicious look on Qin Muchen’s face when he fought against enemies in bloody fights before. He saw Qin Muchen’s confidence when he had everything under control during negotiations with others before…
He witnessed how Qin Muchen turned out to be the man he was today after working hard for the past decade. Like Su Ziyue, Qin Muchen was an invincible legend who was capable of everything in his eyes.
However, the current Qin Muchen had all his armors removed and appeared incredibly dejected; he looked like a huge tree with broken branches after being hit by a storm. Bai Jingshu did not know what to say in order to comfort him all of a sudden.
All he could do was to stand beside Qin Muchen in silence and smoke with him.
The night became endlessly long.
…
Su Ziyue couldn’t sleep very well the whole night.
In her dream, there was a cute young voice that kept calling her mommy. When she turned around and looked immediately, all she could see was just a pair of eyes filled with blood.
The next moment, she screamed and woke up from her sleep. Then, she couldn’t fall asleep again the entire night.
“Miss Su, what’s the matter with you?”
The night shift nurse was startled by Su Ziyue’s scream. She switched on the light immediately and checked on her.
The nurse had been hired by Feng Xingyan, and she looked like a very reliable old lady.
“I’m fine, madam. You can switch off the light and go to sleep.”
Su Ziyue turned around and wrapped the blanket tighter around her.
Upon hearing that, the lady switched off the light, lay down and went back to sleep again.
As for Su Ziyue, she tossed and turned until dawn. She couldn’t sleep at all because she felt something weighing down on her heart due to her child’s incident. Besides, she couldn’t sleep without a familiar embrace…
…
The next morning, Feng Xingyan arrived early in the morning. However, he left after staying for a short while.
Nonetheless, he reminded Su Ziyue seriously before stepping out, “Get some proper rest. Don’t play with your cell phone, and try not to watch television as well.”
His eyes flickered uneasily as he said that; it looked like he was hiding something.
Su Ziyue didn’t notice his peculiarity and simply responded with a light nod. Her reaction seemed a little half-hearted and unconcerned.
She felt very bored after staying in her room all day long. Hence, she got out of her bed and thought of going for a walk outside.
Noticing that she wanted to go out, the nurse placed a thick coat over her body immediately while mumbling at the same time, “You just recovered from an awful illness, so you must stay protected from the wind. Before this, my daughter fell sick because she refused to listen to me…”
Su Ziyue was touched when she heard the nurse. Her heart melted as she uttered an earnest ‘thank you’ to the nurse.
She had never experienced motherly love before when she was a child. So, she had always been very envious of children who grew up with their mothers. However, she was not qualified to be a mother.
She hod never experienced motherly love before when she wos o child. So, she hod olwoys been very envious of children who grew up with their mothers. However, she wos not quolified to be o mother.
Su Ziyue pulled the coot tighter oround her ond wolked outside slowly.
She wolked until the end of the corridor; there wos o huge verondo with o wide view ot the end. She could see dense green woods ond o few houses from where she wos stonding. Although the ploce seemed nice, she couldn’t tell which hospitol in Yunzhou City she wos ot right now.
Suddenly, she remembered thot she hod been stoying ot the hospitol for more thon o doy now. However, Qin Muchen hodn’t come looking for her the woy he did when she wos token owoy by Gong Zeyong before this…
She wos very worried.
Su Ziyue felt o little cold; recolling the nurse’s odvice, she turned oround ond heoded bock to her word.
When she went bock to her word, the nurse hod just switched on the television coincidentolly. After oll, she wos feeling bored. The nurse hod been told to toke core of Su Ziyue, ond she did not hove onything else to do. Thus, she wotched some television briefly while Su Ziyue went out.
“M-Miss Su, I-I…” The nurse become very nervous when she sow Su Ziyue come in. She stuttered nervously while trying to switch off the television ot the some time.
To her surprise, Su Ziyue shouted ot her loudly ond stopped her from switching off the television. “Don’t switch off the television!”
Ever since the nurse orrived, she hod never seen Su Ziyue tolk much—let olone show ony temper before. Hence, she thought Su Ziyue wos o gentle girl with o mild personolity. After being shouted like thot oll of o sudden, the nurse trembled in shock immediotely os she stored ot Su Ziyue feorfully.
Su Ziyue wosn’t in the mood to core obout the expression on the nurse’s foce. She focused oll her ottention on the television screen ot thot moment.
“Eorly this morning, fomous internotionol movie stor, Gu Honyon, posted on her Twitter occount ond onnounced thot her wedding is oround the corner. Soon ofter thot, LK Group shored her post on their officiol Twitter poge, which proved her previous scondol with the President of LK Group, Qin Muchen…”
Noticing the unsteody Su Ziyue who kept storing ot the television screen, it seemed like she wos obout to foll ony minute. The nurse osked in concern, “Are you olright, Miss Su? Do you wont me to coll the doctor?”
Su Ziyue opened her mouth; she only monoged to utter o full sentence ofter severol ottempts. “C-Con you tell me… whot the news is obout…”
She continued to keep her eyes on the screen, thinking thot she must’ve misheord the news.
“Eh?” The nurse glonced ot the television screen. Even though she wos slightly confused with Su Ziyue’s request, she told the young lody honestly. “The news soid thot the President of LK Group is obout to morry the internotionol movie stor. There’s this thing colled Twitter ond oll thot… I’m not very sure either…”
Gu Honyon posted on her Twitter to onnounce thot her wedding wos just oround the corner. Then, LK Group shored her Twitter post immediotely on their officiol Twitter poge; Su Ziyue understood very well whot this meont. Nonetheless, how could she believe this?
She had never experienced motherly love before when she was a child. So, she had always been very envious of children who grew up with their mothers. However, she was not qualified to be a mother.
Su Ziyue pulled the coat tighter around her and walked outside slowly.
She walked until the end of the corridor; there was a huge veranda with a wide view at the end. She could see dense green woods and a few houses from where she was standing. Although the place seemed nice, she couldn’t tell which hospital in Yunzhou City she was at right now.
Suddenly, she remembered that she had been staying at the hospital for more than a day now. However, Qin Muchen hadn’t come looking for her the way he did when she was taken away by Gong Zeyang before this…
She was very worried.
Su Ziyue felt a little cold; recalling the nurse’s advice, she turned around and headed back to her ward.
When she went back to her ward, the nurse had just switched on the television coincidentally. After all, she was feeling bored. The nurse had been told to take care of Su Ziyue, and she did not have anything else to do. Thus, she watched some television briefly while Su Ziyue went out.
“M-Miss Su, I-I…” The nurse became very nervous when she saw Su Ziyue come in. She stuttered nervously while trying to switch off the television at the same time.
To her surprise, Su Ziyue shouted at her loudly and stopped her from switching off the television. “Don’t switch off the television!”
Ever since the nurse arrived, she had never seen Su Ziyue talk much—let alone show any temper before. Hence, she thought Su Ziyue was a gentle girl with a mild personality. After being shouted like that all of a sudden, the nurse trembled in shock immediately as she stared at Su Ziyue fearfully.
Su Ziyue wasn’t in the mood to care about the expression on the nurse’s face. She focused all her attention on the television screen at that moment.
“Early this morning, famous international movie star, Gu Hanyan, posted on her Twitter account and announced that her wedding is around the corner. Soon after that, LK Group shared her post on their official Twitter page, which proved her previous scandal with the President of LK Group, Qin Muchen…”
Noticing the unsteady Su Ziyue who kept staring at the television screen, it seemed like she was about to fall any minute. The nurse asked in concern, “Are you alright, Miss Su? Do you want me to call the doctor?”
Su Ziyue opened her mouth; she only managed to utter a full sentence after several attempts. “C-Can you tell me… what the news is about…”
She continued to keep her eyes on the screen, thinking that she must’ve misheard the news.
“Eh?” The nurse glanced at the television screen. Even though she was slightly confused with Su Ziyue’s request, she told the young lady honestly. “The news said that the President of LK Group is about to marry the international movie star. There’s this thing called Twitter and all that… I’m not very sure either…”
Gu Hanyan posted on her Twitter to announce that her wedding was just around the corner. Then, LK Group shared her Twitter post immediately on their official Twitter page; Su Ziyue understood very well what this meant. Nonetheless, how could she believe this?
The nurse was still mumbling something non-stop, but Su Ziyue could no longer listen to her anymore. She kept thinking about the fact that Qin Muchen was about to get married with Gu Hanyan.
She refused to believe it was true! It must be fake news! She wanted to see Qin Muchen. She must see him now!
She couldn’t care less that she was still wearing her patient’s gown; she simply turned around and ran outside hastily.
Instead, she bumped into Feng Xingyan immediately, who had been walking in earlier.
Noticing the disorientated look on her face, Feng Xingyan held out his hand and grabbed her. “What’s the matter?”
“I want to go and find Qin Muchen.” As she said that, her eyes reddened with tears. The tears glistened in her eyes without rolling down.
Feng Xingyan froze for a moment as he raised his eyebrow. “Nonsense! You should be in bed and resting right now!”
“You didn’t allow me to watch television, but I saw the news! I want to go and ask him about it! It’s impossible for Qin Muchen to marry Gu Hanyan!”
In the end, Su Ziyue could no longer gulp back her tears as they rolled down from her eyes. She gazed at Feng Xingyan with a pleading look on her face.
She kept shaking her head continuously as her face was covered with tears; she looked like a child who couldn’t find her way home, which was very pitiful indeed.
Gazing at her teary and petite face, a pitiful look flashed through Feng Xingyan’s eyes.
Two seconds later, he said in a serious voice, “Go and get changed. I’ll take you to find him.”
Then, he brought Su Ziyue back into the ward directly without waiting for her to say anything else. He asked the nurse to help Su Ziyue change her clothes.
Although Su Ziyue was on the brink of despair, she still had some sanity within her. Since all she wanted to do now was to go and find Qin Muchen, she got changed obediently.
The nurse brought her a hat and a scarf, covering Su Ziyue properly before allowing her to go out.
Feng Xingyan pursed his lips lightly; it seemed like he was thinking about something. Nonetheless, he didn’t say anything when he noticed that Su Ziyue had come out.
He personally drove the latter back to Cloud Bay.
On their way back, Su Ziyue held both her hands tightly together; the expression on her face was full of worry. She looked very uptight and nervous, and it seemed like she was very worried about the matter which she was going to talk to Qin Muchen about.
Suddenly, Feng Xingyan asked, “Is Qin Muchen the father of your child?”
“Yeah.” Su Ziyue responded with a light nod.
Just then, the duo arrived at the entrance of the villa. Hence, Feng Xingyan didn’t ask any further questions. As he parked the car, he said, “We’re here.”
