Liyue Manor
The lights in the spare operating room were on.
In the corridor, the dim yellow light weakly spilled onto the cold gray floor tiles, reflecting faint and monotonous spots of light, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of disinfectant.
On the bench, Chu Nanfeng stood like a silent statue, gazing intently out the window, utterly still.
Beside her, Chu Wan sat there silently, looking down at her hands, radiating an extremely repressed aura.
Leng Ruxue sat beside her, a hint of worry showing in her eyes. Her lips parted several times, her gaze struggling, before she closed them again.
Finally, he silently reached out and placed his hand on Chu Wan's cold palm, offering silent companionship.
In the distance, two contacts stood in front of Chu Liyue, who exuded a terrifying aura, and spoke cautiously with her.
"President Chu, we just spoke with the higher-ups on the phone and they clearly stated that there was a major organizational error in this matter."
"Although we know that President Chu may not need it, the organization will bear all the material losses on your side."
"Regarding Vito Rosso, the organization will definitely take full responsibility and send people to assist General Chu in capturing this scoundrel."
With cold sweat beading on his forehead, the old man forced himself to explain the higher-ups' attitude in one breath.
After speaking, he couldn't help but swallow slightly, carefully observing Chu Liyue's reaction.
While at the abandoned biohazard base, although they didn't know exactly what had happened, it was clear that something had gone wrong.
This accident was clearly inextricably linked to what they had experienced at the base.
With these thoughts in mind, they followed Lu Zhufeng and Leng Ruxue onto the helicopter back to the manor.
On the helicopter, after listening to the report from the chubby little guy on the screen who was under Xiao Wujie's command.
They also fully realized that the whole thing was a scheme set up by that bastard Vito Rosso.
He deliberately caused a commotion at this abandoned base in the capital, using them to lure Xiao Wujie and Chu Liyue there.
They laid a trap in the base to buy time, while taking advantage of the weakened state of Liyue Manor to launch a surprise attack, kidnapping Xiao Wujie's close friend and severely injuring Xiao Wujie's apprentice.
Listening to what Chu's older brother said, if he hadn't arrived in time, he might have even stolen the reagents in the laboratory.
Throughout this whole affair, the organization and its members clearly bear undeniable responsibility; the abandoned base had practically become Vito Rosso's lair, yet they failed to discover it.
He made a little noise and she foolishly took his bait.
They destroyed God's far northern base, illegally occupied abandoned bases, and used deceitful organizations to conduct prohibited research and use of cloning technology.
Any one of these crimes would be enough for God to capture him, throw him into a bio-lab, dismember him, and use him as an experimental subject.
In addition, this incident has also inadvertently offended Chu Liyue, a powerful figure.
Without their call, Chu Liyue wouldn't have gone to the northern part of the capital. With her in charge, even if Vito Rosso had a lot of guts, he wouldn't dare to attack.
Those above were naturally furious, and offered righteous indignation, compensation, and support, but this made it difficult for them to negotiate with the cold and terrifying Chu Liyue in front of them.
They were genuinely afraid that if they said the wrong thing, Chu Liyue, who was on the verge of going berserk, would take her anger out on them first.
Fortunately, Chu Liyue didn't seem to have any intention of making things difficult for them. Upon hearing their words, she simply nodded coldly and waved for them to leave.
After dismissing the God scouts in front of her, Chu Liyue silently turned and looked out the window.
Her stunningly beautiful face was covered in frost, her cold eyes held a boundless storm raging, and the air pressure around her was so low it was suffocating.
Although she has a cold personality and appears aloof, like Xiao Wujie, very few things can truly anger her.
This time, Vito Rosso successfully angered her.
It also successfully angered Xiao Wujie, who never gets angry.
Thinking of Xiao Wujie, the coldness in her eyes lessened somewhat.
Compared to the others, she is more worried about Xiao Wujie now. Although she doesn't show it on her face, she knows that he must be feeling very bad right now.
He must feel guilty for not being able to see through Vito Rosso's methods sooner, which led to Lin Qingyi being taken away and Yun Mo being seriously injured and dying.
He rarely lets his guard down with anyone except her.
His inherent aloofness and integrity made him disdainful of letting others bear his emotions; he usually endured everything on his own.
The constant travel and the intense, complex emotions weighing on his mind took their toll on his body...
Just then, the operating room lights went out.
Chu Wan and the others, who were sitting on the bench, quickly got up and surrounded the operating room. Chu Liyue also quickly took a few steps forward when she saw this.
The operating room door opened from the inside, and several doctors in white coats carefully helped Ye Jinyu, who was pale and could barely stand, out of the operating room.
Ye Jinyu herself was also seriously injured, but faced with the critically injured and dying Yunmo, the other doctors were simply not capable of performing surgery to save him.
Before he could even treat his own injuries, he forced himself onto the operating table and began a new battle with death.
The highly complex surgery and the intense physical and mental exertion caused him to collapse on the operating table several times, requiring the assistance of other doctors to complete the procedure with great difficulty.
Sweat soaked his full head of black hair, making him look as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
Meeting the gazes of Shang Chuwan, Leng Ruxue, and Chu Nanfeng, he struggled to stand with the help of several other doctors.
His chest heaved, and he gasped for breath. His almost unfocused gaze swept over the crowd as he gritted his teeth and spoke with difficulty:
"The person... has been rescued..."
"Not... completely out of danger yet, needs to be observed further..."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his words, especially Chu Wan and Chu Liyue.
Chu Liyue's initial reaction stemmed from a deeper bond between her and Yunmo. She was genuinely afraid that if something happened to Yunmo, it would bring Xiao Wujie a great deal of blow and guilt.
After struggling to explain Yunmo's condition, several doctors helped Ye Jinyu walk outside, as his injuries also needed treatment.
He walked past the crowd to Chu Liyue's side, and Chu Liyue's deep and cold gaze met his. He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly.
She wasn't worried about Ye Jinyu's physical condition; with his abilities, he wouldn't have any problems handling it.
However, she still keenly noticed the subtle dejection between his brows.
She was one of the first to discern his feelings for Lin Qingyi, and naturally, she was more able to perceive his current emotions.
The fact that Lin Qingyi was abducted by Vito Rosso right in front of him undoubtedly dealt him a blow.
"Get yourself healed, and come with me to save people."
With a cold and aloof gaze, Chu Liyue spoke softly.
Ye Jinyu paused for a moment, raised her eyes slightly, nodded gently, and was helped forward.
After saying that, Chu Liyue turned and left. She was going to find Xiao Wujie and tell him that Yun Mo was alright.
No matter how important other things are, he must come first!
