Chapter 91 Her Pride

"Mr. Lu, Miss Wen Ni seems to be in a lot of pain?"

Even if Qin Yuan didn't say it, it was obvious.

Lu Jinye, who was standing in front, raised his hand and tugged at the door, but it was locked very firmly and he couldn't budge it at all!

For four days, she was locked up here, enduring physical and mental pain all by herself!

Given her personality, how did she manage to get through it?

The hand on the doorknob tightened again and again, and the veins on his arm bulged due to the complex emotions he was suppressing!

"Open the door."

Lu Jinye lowered his voice by eight octaves and glanced sideways at the deputy director who was late in catching up.

"Alright, alright! Don't rush..." The deputy director was almost killed by the glare he received. He nimbly rushed to the military doctor and nurse duty station. "Who is in charge of room 046? Open the door quickly."

Nurse Xiaojie was fast asleep when she heard the shout. With her eyes still closed, she sprang up, grabbed her nursing uniform, put it on, and rushed down the corridor!

"Coming, coming! Deputy Director, what brings you here so late?"

"The deputy director? The deputy director is here? What happened?"

Hearing the commotion, the other nurses in the duty room were also wide awake. They all got out of bed and peered out from the doorway!

Qin Yuan and Lu Jinye stood one after the other in the corridor, their figures and looks comparable to male models, instantly making them stare wide-eyed!

"Isn't this Lu Jinye?"

"That incredibly handsome man from TV!"

"Huh? What's he doing here?"

They were incredibly surprised.

Xiao Jie had already taken the key and walked to the door of 046.

"Deputy Director, I'm afraid we can't open the door now." Seeing the situation inside, Xiao Jie hesitated slightly. "She has caffeine in her system, and she's probably experiencing withdrawal symptoms. If you go in now, she might attack you because she's not fully conscious!"

"Isn't there any way to alleviate or reduce her pain?!" Lu Jinye's breathing grew heavier.

"No."

Nurse Xiaojie shook her head repeatedly, "Once you've been injected with caffeine, you can only tough it out. If you can survive for half a month, you'll basically be fine!"

But very few actually survive; most are left battered and bruised beyond recognition.

"Have she spent every day like this since she came here?"

"yes."

The nurse's simple word fell like a heavy stone into Lu Jinye and Qin Yuan's hearts!

It's oppressive, heavy, and heartbreaking!

"Mr. Lu, just to be safe, perhaps we should wait until she calms down before going in to see her?"

"No."

Decisively rejecting the deputy director's suggestion, Lu Jinye took the key directly from the nurse's hand, opened the door, and went inside!

Then he locked the door from the inside.

"I can stay inside by myself. Qin Yuan, you wait outside."

"Master Lu..."

Qin Yuan's eyebrows furrowed in surprise, and her tightly clenched fists loosened slightly.

He thought that perhaps with Master Lu around, Wen Ni would feel a little better.

The deputy director and nurse, who were also locked outside, were completely bewildered.

They couldn't understand what the relationship was between this No. 046 and Lu Jinye, that he would do such a thing for her, completely disregarding his own safety...

At this moment, in a quiet, enclosed room.

Wen Ni's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and the sweat on her forehead soaked through her pillowcase!

She was once again in dire straits, on the verge of death. Her whole being seemed to be folded and pierced, one moment frozen in an ice cellar, the next roasted on a hot stove!

From the inside out, from top to bottom, it was completely battered.

Venomous fangs... Venomous fangs...

In a daze, she seemed to be back at the fire in Myanmar, frantically searching for traces of the venomous fangs in the flames!

But she couldn't find him no matter what she did.

Extreme grief, hatred, and anger overwhelmed her instantly!

ear

Once again, those familiar yet sinister words echoed—[I will make you wish you were dead, as if you were plunged into the deepest hell!]

She took a deep breath.

The suffocating overhead light made her nearly collapse! Past traumas resurfaced! Her shattered body was tightly bound by shackles, her throat constricted, threatening to suffocate at any moment!

She waved her hands, desperately trying to grab, desperately trying to grab! But she couldn't grab anything, she couldn't grab anything at all...

She will die here.

How could she die here...?

Before her emotions overwhelmed her, her fingertips suddenly touched a cool patch of skin.

She was startled, and then involuntarily clung to it like a vine, desperately trying to draw upon the long-awaited comfort!

Who is it? Who is it?

She tried to open her eyes wide but couldn't see anything; all she could see was the blinding light!

The man seemed to sense her intentions and desires, and took her hand, pulling her into his arms and holding her tightly!

Such an intimate distance made her instinctively want to resist; she scratched at it with all her might, and even bit it!

Strangely, instead of pushing her away, the man stayed right there, letting her pull and bite him, transferring the pain onto him!

All precautions vanished without a trace at that moment.

As time goes by.

The burning heat on Wen Ni's body gradually subsided.

She knew in her heart that this attack was a thousand times, ten thousand times better than any of the previous ones! All because of... this person's appearance.

Unfortunately, she was already exhausted, and even lifting her eyelids was a luxury. Only her trembling hands stubbornly gripped the other person's clothes tightly, refusing to let go!

The material is silky smooth, like ice silk.

She was too tired.

My brain can't process it, and I start to feel drowsy again.

In my hazy state, I could only hear some scattered, muffled conversations, as if they were inside a jar.

"You've been keeping watch here all night. Aren't you going to wait until Miss Wen Ni wakes up before leaving?"

“She has her pride and wouldn’t want us to see her like this.”

Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone to such lengths and refused to tell him.

"There's no need to tell her I was here after she wakes up."

"Ah... okay, sir." It sounded like the voice of nurse Xiaojie.

The steady footsteps faded into the distance, and Wen Ni fell completely asleep.

As dawn broke, she came back to life and greeted a brand new day.

Gently pull back the curtains.

Looking at the rising sun outside the iron bars.

Wen Ni's complexion has improved, and she looks more energetic than she did a few days ago!

"Feeling good today? Looks like everything is slowly getting better! It wasn't in vain..."

Xiao Jie, the nurse who came in to do a routine physical examination, stopped halfway through her sentence, almost letting something slip.

But Wen Ni wasn't stupid. She looked up at Xiao Jie and asked, "What do you mean, 'not in vain'? Why aren't you saying anything?"

"nothing……"

"You don't need to hide it from me. Did someone come here to see me yesterday?" Wen Ni pressed on.

Once you make eye contact with her, her aura is so powerful that not just anyone can remain calm in the face of it!

Xiao Jie's heart skipped a beat when Wen Ni stared at her, and she quickly pretended to be very busy and turned her back to avoid her gaze!

"Yes...yes, but I'm very curious. His identity is special. Given that you two have absolutely no connection, how did you two meet?"

Who are you talking about?

Wen Ni suddenly had an answer that was about to come to her mind.
