Yundu, the city's central hospital.
When Mu Xiaocheng woke up, Meng Xunqian was by her bedside.
Seeing that she was awake, Meng Xunqian's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "Is there anything else that's bothering you? Are you hungry?"
Mu Xiaocheng looked around and asked worriedly, "Where is Ji Huaishen?"
Meng Xunqian pursed his lips tightly, his eyes darting around, not daring to look at her.
"Brother, tell me, where is Ji Huaishen? Where is he?"
Mu Xiaocheng suddenly raised her voice, her tone trembling with tears.
Meng Xunqian frowned and looked at Mu Xiaocheng: "Chengcheng, don't get agitated, listen to me."
"Ji Huaishen, he..."
"What's wrong with him?!" Mu Xiaocheng stared intently at Meng Xunqian in front of her, her eyes already red.
As if she had thought of something, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"He didn't come out, did he?"
He had Shang Qi knock her unconscious, while he held off Zhou Guangbo alone...
"Chengcheng, please don't..."
Before Meng Xunqian could finish speaking, Mu Xiaocheng jumped off the bed.
She didn't bother to put on shoes, her bare feet stepping on the cold floor.
They ran outside as fast as they could.
That's impossible.
How could he just abandon her like that?
He's so stingy, how could he possibly let her go so easily?
She didn't believe it.
Shang Qi was standing in the corridor when Mu Xiaocheng came out and saw him at a glance.
"Madam," he murmured.
"He didn't come out with us?"
Mu Xiaocheng stared blankly at him, eagerly awaiting his answer.
Shang Qi lowered his head, and this was the first time Mu Xiaocheng had ever seen such a sorrowful expression on his face.
"Madam, I'm sorry. The gentleman couldn't come out with us."
Mu Xiaocheng opened her mouth, then shook her head, hot tears sliding down her cheeks.
I don't believe it.
She didn't believe it; she didn't believe he hadn't escaped.
She didn't believe he could bear to part with her.
"I'm going to find him."
With that, Mu Xiaocheng turned and ran out of the hospital.
Her face was deathly pale, she wore only a thin undergarment, her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, and she was barefoot, stepping on the cold floor.
She ran for her life, desperately wanting to find him.
People around her cast strange looks at her.
That look was as if he were looking at a madman.
Soon, Meng Xunqian caught up.
He stopped her, gripped her thin shoulders, and said loudly, "Mu Xiaocheng, calm down."
“He did not come out. Like Zhou Guangbo, he was on that ship until the very last second of the explosion.”
"That ship was not only loaded with countless explosives, but also with many dangerous items. Lu Beicheng sent a search and rescue team to look for it, but there is still no news."
"With an explosion of that magnitude, his chances of surviving are extremely slim. Don't be foolish!"
Mu Xiaocheng sniffed as she listened to his words and kept shaking her head.
"No, he can't be dead."
He once said that even if he were to die, he would die with her.
With such a strong possessive streak, how could he bear to leave her alone in this cold, indifferent world?
He'll be alright, he won't...
"He won't die, he'll definitely come back, I'm going to find him!"
When Mu Xiaocheng said those words, she was completely devastated.
She cried loudly, each sob tugging at Meng Xunqian's heart.
Her pale face was covered in tears, and her voice was hoarse, making one's heart ache terribly.
Meng Xunqian suddenly pulled her into his arms.
He said in a calm voice, "Chengcheng, he's not coming back."
