Indeed, right after Mu Tingfeng spoke, Su Jifeng’s expression abruptly changed. The murderous intent in his eyes slightly wavered.
Zhao Youlin watched and noticed everything that was happening. She was puzzled as she never thought that the young master of the Su family, who looked so vigorous and resolute as if he held the power of one’s life and death, was surprisingly very concerned about his younger sister, Su He.
Zhao Youlin then recalled Su Jifeng at the banquet that day. Although he looked bloodthirsty, the way he treated Su Qing and his kiths and kins was the total opposite.
Just as Mu Tingfeng and Su Jifeng were at a standstill, at that moment, the emergency ward door was opened once again.
The crowd’s attention was immediately attracted to them. Su Jifeng was the first to let go of his vendetta and quickly went over to the doctor whose hands were still stained with blood.
The doctor had been specially invited over by the hospital director after he learned about Ye Yan’s identity.
The doctor had been reminded by the hospital director that he had to treat the family members of the patient with care. Therefore, when the doctor saw them, he did not beat around and bush and said in a low voice, “The patient’s condition is stable.
“Both the mother and her child are fine. However, the mother has lost a lot of blood and is very weak now. Therefore, she has to be nursed back to health in the following months. She has to be kept in a good mood and healthy diet so that she could slowly recover. The patient would be transferred to the VIP intensive care unit in a while. Her family members could visit her in half an hour. However, bear in mind that the patient currently needs a lot of rest. Don’t talk too much to her or make her get too tired.”
Upon hearing the doctor’s words, the crowd heaved a sigh of relief in unison. This was especially so for Li who had just walked out after drawing her blood.
Li’s small face turned slightly pale due to having blood taken from her. However, after she heard the doctor say that Su He and her child were fine, she cried with joy.
She had been worried sick from the moment she entered the hospital. She dared not imagine how remorseful she would be and would probably live in guilt for the rest of her life if Su He were to lose her child in this incident.
The moment when the doctor came out, Ye Yan had struggled hard to rise and go up to him. However, Su Jifeng had left no room for error when he sent his blow at Ye Yan. Therefore, the moment Ye Yan rose, he felt his bones shaking and trembling. With the additional sudden impact of his memory, Ye Yan no longer had the strength to grab the position to inquire to the doctor about Su He’s condition.
It had not been easy for him to finally snap out of his daze. Just when he was about to touch the young lady who had been pushed out of the emergency ward, Su Jifeng, who had predicted this, had ruthlessly pushed him to the side.
Ye Yan was already striving to balance himself. The moment Su Jifeng pushed him, he immediately fell on the floor and looked like a mess.
Su Jifeng looked at Ye Yan from a domineering position as if staring at an ant languishing on the ground. A trace of danger appeared in his cold eyes as he said to Ye Yan, “If not for the sake of the child in Xiao Qi’s belly, I would certainly have gotten you killed. I’ll only spare you once this time. Don’t ever appear in front of Xiao Qi again!”
After Su Jifeng finished speaking, he did not care about Ye Yan’s response and hastened his footsteps to follow the pace of the people in front of him as they tailed behind Su He’s sickbed and on the way to the intensive care unit.
Ye Yan sat on the floor and watched wide-eyed as Su Jifeng and Su He’s sickbed gradually faded from his sight. He was helpless.
This was Ye Yan’s second time feeling so helpless. The first time was when his mother passed away. At that time, he was still only a child and was unable to fight against the adults who were like wolves and tigers.
As a normal person, he could not fight against death. In the end, he could only watch his beloved mother slowly lose her ability to carry on and leave him forever, all alone by her snow-white sickbed.
Now, he owned the great power that he had long desired in the past. However, he still failed to keep what he desired and the people whom he wanted to protect. He had asked for them all.
Looking at the dried blood on his hand, Ye Yan recalled Su He’s pained look when she was in his arms. His heart was in pain.
What could he do to make up for the mistakes he made? What could he do to get back the girl whom he owed more than ten years?
Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group watched Ye Yan’s deeply remorseful and painful look. They could not help but sigh.
They could do nothing but sigh. After all, the incident involved only the two and the rest had no way to intervene.
“Let’s go back.” Mu Tingfeng was the first to break the silent atmosphere. He asked Zhao Youlin to depart with him first.
Zhao Youlin was a little stunned before she asked in puzzlement, “Don’t you want to visit Xiao He?”
Mu Tingfeng shook his head. “The doctor has told us that she needs a lot of rest. Since Jifeng is around, there’s no need to worry much.”
Zhao Youlin furrowed her eyebrows. As she recalled the doctor’s instructions, she nodded. The next moment, she instinctively looked at the dumbfounded Ye Yan who was still sitting on the floor. She asked in a low voice, “Is it… okay to leave him here?”
Upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s words, Mu Tingfeng discreetly sized Ye Yan up before he said coolly, “There is no use in being obsessed by remorse. Instead of spending the time sinking in a depressed mood, might as well think of a way to redeem and make up for the mistakes made. How can someone be convinced to entrust his beloved sister to a man who so easily caused an issue but fails to clear up his mess?”
Right after Mu Tingfeng spoke, Zhao Youlin clearly saw Ye Yan shuddering in response. Before she gave him a second glance, Mu Tingfeng had already dominantly pulled her out of the emergency room entrance and walked out.
“Send Youlin’s secretary home.” Right after Mu Tingfeng was assured that Su He’s life was no longer in danger, he called his driver to pick them up while tossing the car keys in his hand to Xia Zhetao, asking him to send Li home.
There were a few reasons why he had changed to another car. One, he did not want Li and Xia Zhetao to be the lightbulbs while they were on the way home. Two, the car which was used to fetch Su He to the hospital was stained with too much blood.
Regardless of whether he was superstitious or worried too much, President Mu hoped that Zhao Youlin would conceive another child in the future and so he did not want Zhao Youlin to return to that car.
Looking at the heavy car keys in his hand, it took Xia Zhetao some time before he snapped out of his daze. It looked like he had been abandoned by his superior once again!
Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng sat in the back seat. The moment they got into the car, she looked like she thought of something. She stared at Mu Tingfeng teasingly and mocked him, “Regarding all those that you mentioned to Ye Yan, are those… based on your personal experience?”
Mu Tingfeng turned his head around and cast a glance at Zhao Youlin before he blurted out, “You are different. So am I.
“You’re not Su He and I am not Ye Yan. You are not the type who would quietly wait for someone and suffer in silence. Likewise, I wouldn’t be so stupid to the extent of forgetting that you were once most dear to me and made you wait for years.
“Therefore, you are different, and so am I..”
