Chapter 731 Those who didn't die will make you cry your eyes out.
The company has a dedicated rest area on the first floor.
The two sat down on the sofa. Shen Boyan was probably tired, so he didn't say anything, but simply rested his head on a cushion and closed his eyes.
Qiao Xing knew he was in a bad mood these past two days, so she didn't disturb him and just sat quietly.
The rain outside was pattering softly, and Shen Boyan's breathing gradually became clearer, which surprised Qiao Xing.
He fell asleep so quickly.
Just then, someone's phone rang, the sound seeming particularly abrupt in the already quiet atmosphere.
Shen Boyan frowned slightly.
Qiao Xing thought it was his phone ringing, so he quickly took it out to check.
The phone screen showed nothing.
Shen Boyan probably realized it was his own phone, but he ignored it and continued sleeping.
But the next second, his phone rang again.
Shen Boyan was so annoyed that he took out his phone and glanced at it.
There were two text messages.
They were all sent by Shen Jilan; he didn't know where he got the numbers from.
Shen Jilan: Second brother, I've returned to the capital. The doctor said Dad only has a few days left. No matter what, you are his son, so come back and visit.

Shen Boyan glanced at the text message expressionlessly, not even opening the picture at the end, and directly pressed the power button on his phone.
Now it's quiet.
Shen Boyan wanted to continue sleeping, but when he turned his gaze, he saw Qiao Xing staring at him in a daze.
"Are you alright?" Qiao Xing asked.
"fine."
Shen Boyan gave the same answer as always.
These two words are the ones I've heard most often from him these past two days.
Qiao Xing didn't believe it at all; he didn't look like anything was wrong.
She had intended to say a few words of comfort to Shen Boyan, but Shen Boyan suddenly sat up, clicked his tongue, and looked extremely agitated.
He suddenly looked at Qiao Xing, his eyes filled with a deep meaning, as if he had something to say to her.
Just then, the cell phone rang.
Shen Boyan's phone was switched off earlier; this time it's Qiao Xing's.
As soon as she answered the phone, she heard Tian Guo crying, "Xing... Sister Xing, something's happened... Brother Tao Yang, he... he's injured..."
Qiao Xing exclaimed in surprise, "What happened? Tell me slowly, don't cry yet."
Tian Guo's voice trembled violently, and she could barely speak. Qiao Xing listened anxiously, "What happened? Where are you now?"
Tian Guo on the other side fell silent, and then Qiao Xing heard Tao Yang's voice, "It's nothing, I'm fine, just some minor injuries."
Tian Guo cried, "They're bleeding..."
Upon hearing about the blood, Qiao Xing knew the situation was very serious. "Tao Yang, what happened? How did you get injured? Did you go to the hospital?"
"It's hard to explain in just a few words while we're in the car. Let's talk about it when you get here."
"Okay, then you go to the hospital first. I'm with Boyan right now, I'll be there soon."
After Qiao Xing hung up the phone, Shen Boyan asked, "What's wrong?"
"Tian Guo said Tao Yang was injured, but didn't say how. They've already gone to the hospital, let's go check on them."
Shen Boyan immediately stood up. "Let's go."
Qiao Xing was worried about how they would get to the hospital since it was raining and it was hard to get a taxi outside.
Unexpectedly, Xing Jiu arrived as soon as I went out.
Before everyone knew Qin Ce's identity, Xing Jiu would always deliberately avoid Shen Boyan when picking up Qiao Xing.
But now, Qin Ce's identity is no longer a secret.
So he appeared in front of Shen Boyan and the others without any hesitation.
As soon as Qiao Xing got into the car, he said to Xing Jiu, "To the hospital."
Shen Boyan then got into the car as well.
Xing Jiu first glanced at Shen Boyan, then looked nervous when she heard Qiao Xing say they were going to the hospital.
Before he could speak, Qiao Xing explained, "It wasn't me, it was Tao Yang who went to the hospital."
Xing Jiu immediately understood, and without asking any questions, she started the engine.
When Qiao Xing and Shen Boyan arrived, the doctor was treating the wound on Tao Yang's abdomen.
Because of the disinfection procedure, Tao Yang grimaced in pain and repeatedly told the doctor, "Be gentle! Be gentle!"
Tian Guo cried uncontrollably beside him, especially when she heard Tao Yang's anguish.
She was even more at a loss, repeatedly saying sorry.
The wound wasn't actually deep; it just looked scary.
The man who stabbed Tao Yang was also a coward; although he had a knife, he didn't dare to kill him.
But Tao Yang has always been afraid of pain. He used to cry for half an hour when he went to the hospital for a vaccination as a child, so how could he endure this kind of suffering?
Despite the pain, he didn't forget to comfort Tian Guo, who was crying her eyes out beside him, "Alright, I'm still alive, aren't I? You're making me feel like I'm about to die. You've made even the living cry to death."
Tian Guo couldn't stop crying whenever she thought about the terrifying scene she had just witnessed.
Fortunately, Tao Yang is still alive; he didn't die.
Her crying made Tao Yang even more at a loss.
He's the one who's injured, so he should be the one crying, right?
Just then, Qiao Xing and Shen Boyan arrived. Tao Yang looked at them as if they were his saviors and said, "You've finally come! Tell her to stop crying, my head hurts."
When Qiao Xing saw that Tao Yang could still speak, she knew he was alright, and her heart was at ease. She then comforted the helpless Tian Guo.
Shen Boyan glanced at the wound on Tao Yang's stomach. "What happened?"
Tao Yang pointed at Tian Guo, "It was raining outside, and I saw she didn't have an umbrella, so I took her home. But on the way, I found someone following her. Guess who it was? It was that bastard boss from her former studio."
It turns out that Tian Guo's former boss discovered that she had resigned and gone to Big Bad Wolf, and since she had hit him in the office before, he planned to teach her a lesson and then threaten her to return to the studio.
When Tao Yang witnessed this, he naturally couldn't tolerate it.
Although Tao Yang wasn't the kind of person involved in the underworld, he was still a tall, strong man, so dealing with those guys was a piece of cake for him.
But who knew that Tian Guo, that bastard boss, would resort to desperate measures, somehow obtaining a small fruit knife and, taking advantage of Tao Yang's inattention, stabbing him directly in the stomach.
"Luckily, that knife was small, otherwise you'd be having a feast right now!"
Shen Boyan glanced at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
To avoid making Tian Guo feel guilty, Tao Yang deliberately recounted the events in a lighthearted tone.
But this was of no use to Tian Guo.
He had barely finished speaking when he heard Tian Guo cry as the three of them said, "I'm...I'm sorry, it's all because of me that Tao Yang got hurt. He was protecting me..."
Qiao Xing patted her on the back and comforted her, "It's not your fault. Those people hurt you, not you. Don't take the blame on yourself."
"Yeah, it's not like you instigated them to stab me, so what does it have to do with you?"
Tian Guo sobbed, "But if you hadn't taken me back, you wouldn't have gotten hurt..."
