Upon hearing the name "Master Xiao," the others looked towards the door in surprise, their expressions turning trembling with fear.
Murong Xiao? The fearsome head of a conglomerate, the ruthless richest man in China, a figure everyone dreams of meeting but can never see—how could he suddenly appear here?
Jiang Zhiqiang stopped what he was doing, and Xiang Jin, whom he was holding, fell to the ground and looked at Murong Xiao for help!
"Help me..."
She bent her index finger and clenched her other four fingers to form an "S" shape, then made an "O" shape, and bent her index finger again to make an "S" shape. She didn't know if he understood.
"Master Xiao, what are you doing here..." Someone went up to greet him, but was ruthlessly blocked by the bodyguards.
Murong Xiao looked toward the private room with a sullen face.
"Save me... Murong Xiao." She stared at him intently, her eyes pleading. After making a series of frantic hand gestures, she fainted.
"Bring that woman up to me," he commanded loudly.
The bodyguard pushed open the door and brought Xiang Jin out of the private room, leading her to Murong Xiao.
Her face was burning red, her clothes were disheveled, and she reeked of alcohol; she was utterly a sorry sight.
Murong Xiao chuckled and looked up at everyone in the private room.
The others looked at each other, not daring to utter a sound.
"Master Xiao, A-Jin is our classmate. She drank a little too much, so..." In the end, Lin Miaomiao mustered up her courage and went forward. She was a little confused. Why would Murong Xiao save Xiang Jin? Did they know each other?
But Xiang Jin was just a deliveryman, a mute, and had been to prison. How could he possibly know Murong Xiao?
Even if they knew each other, Murong Xiao would never stand up for her. She was such a lowly person that she wasn't even worthy of carrying his shoes.
Murong Xiao's wolf-like eyes swept over Lin Miaomiao.
"What, you have a problem with taking my people away?" He spoke casually, but his aura was sharp.
"You...your people? Mr. Xiao, what do you mean by this..." Lin Miaomiao was stunned.
You have no right to know.
Amidst everyone's astonishment, Murong Xiao turned and walked towards the door.
As he was about to leave the hall, he stopped again, his deep gaze sweeping over everyone: "You, you all, I'll remember you."
After saying that, he disappeared through the doorway.
The door to the private room was slowly closed.
The room fell into a deathly silence.
Three seconds later—
Student A: "I... I didn't hear wrong, did I? Master Xiao said Xiang Jin is his person. What does 'his person' mean?"
Student B: "I think I heard that too, is this a dream?"
This is certainly not a dream.
Ke Yuyan heard it too, and her voice trembled slightly: "Miaomiao, what's going on?"
Lin Miaomiao couldn't answer her question.
Her face turned pale; she couldn't believe it was true. How could Xiang Jin possibly be Murong Xiao's man? This was more unbelievable than the sun rising in the west.
but--
That's what Murong Xiao said.
In China, Murong Xiao is synonymous with authority and everything, so he naturally wouldn't waste words.
If Xiang Jin is truly Murong Xiao's man, then everyone here... knows that Murong Xiao is vengeful and ruthless, and anyone who offends him will not have a good ending.
Jiang Zhiqiang, who was in the corner, also realized something. His legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground, followed by a pool of yellow liquid flowing out from under him.
——————
The First People's Hospital, VIP ward area.
The doctor first performed a gastric lavage on Xiang Jin to remove the medication from her body and ensure that she was completely free of any problems before respectfully reporting to Murong Xiao.
"As you suspected, the drink was spiked with a potent drug. A normal person would lose consciousness within five minutes of drinking it," the doctor said.
Since entering the hospital, Murong Xiao has had a somber face, and now it's even more somber.
With a loud thud, the fist slammed heavily on the table, startling the doctor so much that his face turned pale and his voice trembled.
They've got some nerve, drugging people like that...
"However, the medication has been completely removed, and the patient will wake up soon, so please rest assured, Master Xiao." After reporting, the doctor left as if fleeing, fearing that staying any longer would cost him his life.
The ward was eerily quiet for a moment.
"You know what to do without me having to tell you," Murong Xiao said coldly.
"The arrangements have already been made. There are thirteen people attending the gathering. Their workplaces and family situations have been investigated. Jiang Zhiqiang, who offended the wife, has been taken away by the police, and evidence is currently being collected," Su Ming replied.
Murong Xiao raised his eyes, his face cold: "That Jiang Zhiqiang, I want him dead."
“Understood. It’s just that the relationships involved are rather complicated. People from the Wen and Lin families are also involved, but they didn’t poison her. Young Master, you’ve also revealed Madam’s special identity, and I’m worried the information might leak out…”
At that point, some things will be difficult to control.
"Warn them not to talk nonsense, especially in front of Aqi."
"Yes, I doubt they would dare." After all, in China, who would dare offend Murong Xiao, unless they didn't want to live?
"Does Madam work at a courier company?" he asked, suddenly remembering something. She's the eldest daughter of the prestigious Xiang family, with an impressive resume; what job couldn't she find? Why would she go to a place like that?
Su Ming's heart skipped a beat: "This... I haven't checked it. Should I check it?"
Murong Xiao looked at Xiang Jin on the hospital bed. Although her fox-like eyes were closed, he was 100% certain that she was the woman he had a relationship with three years ago.
It happened to be the anniversary of his adoptive parents' death. Wearing the sweater they had knitted for him, he went to the slums to defeat them. During the process, he drank too much and became so drunk that he was unconscious. He was then inexplicably taken to a hotel.
In his confusion, a woman entered his room and was pinned down by him.
He said, "Don't be afraid, I will marry you."
Because of those fox-like eyes.
When he woke up, the woman was gone, the hotel's surveillance footage had been taken, and there was no trace of her. It was all like a dream.
Just when he thought he would never see her again, he saw those similar eyes in his slum and found out that the woman from three years ago was her. She had suddenly barged into his world.
"Young Master, should we check on Madam's condition?" Seeing that he hadn't replied for a long time, Su Ming had no choice but to ask again.
"Need not."
As long as it was her three years ago, he didn't need to know what she had gone through or why she did it.
As long as... she is Aqi, that's enough.
……………………
Xiang Jin woke up the next day at noon.
She subconsciously searched the room for something, but after scanning the room, she saw nothing.
Murong Xiao...did he really save her? Did he bring her to the hospital?
He saved her again. Why is it such a coincidence that he always appears just in time when she is in danger and needs help?
He wasn't in the ward, so he must have left. Bringing a stranger to the hospital was already the most he could do; how could he possibly stay here?
