He stared intently at Shi Nian, but couldn't answer.
Shi Nian spoke up: "Mr. Zhan, if you don't answer, I'll assume you like me a little. So if you like me a little, then if something happens to me, could you take care of Xiao Cao, Grandpa, and Grandma for me?"
Shi Nian's eyelashes drooped: "Grandpa and Grandma are getting old. Grandma has a mild mental illness, and Grandpa seems to be starting to lose his mind. Xiao Cao is still so small. I'm really worried about them..."
"Shi Nian, you'll be alright," Zhan Xiu said solemnly. "But I still assure you, I will take good care of them."
"What exactly happened to that little grass? Have you found out?" Shi Nian asked again.
This is something she always keeps in mind.
"It'll be soon," Zhan Xiu said in a deep voice.
“Mr. Zhan, if you find anything bad, don’t tell Xiaocao. Keep it from her.” Shi Nian pleaded again, “She called me that day and probably doesn’t know anything, so don’t let her know. Let her live happily with my grandparents and grow up well. Please don’t let her know about those bad things.”
Shi Nian's insistence on knowing what Xiao Cao had gone through stemmed from her fear that Xiao Cao had been harmed and she wanted to make those who harmed Xiao Cao pay the price.
Instead of letting the grass know.
Upon hearing Shi Nian's words, Zhan Xiu was taken aback.
So Shi Nian mistakenly thought that the girl named Xiao Cao was still living with her grandparents?
Zhan Xiuchen was worried and didn't say much, but nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Zhan Xiuchen agreed to everything, Shi Nian suddenly smiled.
She smiled with a hint of relief, then said softly, "Mr. Zhan, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would be in a terrible state right now."
“I would panic and lose my mind if I thought about what would happen to Grandpa and Grandma, or Little Grass. But now I’m not afraid, because I know you’re here.”
"No matter what happens to me, even if I have to say goodbye to this world tomorrow, I'm not afraid anymore, because you're here. You promised me you'd take care of them, and that puts my mind at ease..."
"........"
Upon hearing Shi Nian say this, Zhan Xiuchen felt as if his heart was being gripped by an invisible hand.
Shi Nian made his heart ache even more.
She's clearly a young girl.
Such a young girl should be at an age where she loves to play and have fun, without any burdens.
But Shi Nian's shoulders were full of burdens.
She is too sentimental and cares too much about the people she loves.
So even when he thought he was going to die, his heart was full of thoughts of his grandparents and the little grass.
She lived her whole life carrying a heavy burden.
It's probably never been easy.
Only after hearing his promise did I finally feel relieved.
That's why I laughed.
Because she felt relieved.
She knew he would take good care of the people she cared about, and she was finally at ease.
"Shi Nian, listen to me. I'm telling you again, don't talk nonsense." After a long while, Zhan Xiuchen spoke: "You won't die. You're just temporarily isolated. There's no evidence that you'll die. Maybe you haven't even been infected with the virus. You'll get better soon. Shi Nian, do you understand?"
Looking at Zhan Xiuchen's serious expression, Shi Nian's eyes seemed somewhat dazed.
There was something she didn't say.
That means she actually wanted everything to be alright.
Because she remembered that her wedding was coming soon.
Zhan Xiuchen risked his life to save her, which suddenly made her look forward to the wedding.
Because it was a loving wedding, wasn't it?
But will she really be alright?
Shi Nian didn't know.
At this moment, drowsiness swept over me again.
Shi Nian couldn't take it anymore.
She fell into a deep sleep again.
........
The night grew even darker.
A car is driving on the street.
Zhan Xiuchen was sitting in the car.
He had originally planned to go to Zhan Wang's private villa later.
After all, he has not yet fully recovered his mobility.
After his conversation with Shi Nian in the isolation room, Zhan Xiuchen decided to go now.
Shi Nian was always thinking about the little grass.
Living with someone as dangerous as Xiaocao and Zhanwang is risky, every minute or second counts.
Therefore, he must bring the grass out as soon as possible.
........
Inside the villa, Zhan Wang sat alone on the sofa, looking gloomy.
He just received a call from his subordinates.
Zhou Wu disappeared.
Meanwhile, Zhan Xiuchen was also sending people to investigate the massacre in the underground city.
So Zhan Xiuchen's reach was so long?
They even found an underground massacre site?
He hasn't even settled into his presidency yet, and the presidential ceremony hasn't even taken place, so why is he meddling in so much?
Zhan Xiuchen, what are you trying to do?
Zhan Wang narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of killing intent flashing in them.
Zhou Wu has disappeared; his whereabouts remain unknown.
But he had a gut feeling that Zhan Xiuchen was inextricably linked to him!
Zhan Xiuchen, oh Zhan Xiuchen!
They've already gone to the hospital, why are they still so restless?
Zhan Wang recalled Lin Yazhu's words from last time, and a sneer flashed in his eyes.
So, his mother's idea to have someone go to the hospital to kill Zhan Xiuchen is utterly ridiculous, isn't it?
Zhan Xiuchen is not someone you can kill just because you want to.
Lin Yazhu completely underestimates Zhan Xiuchen's abilities!
Even when injured, Zhan Xiuchen is not so easy to deal with!
Zhan Wang could predict that after he rejected Lin Yazhu, Lin Yazhu would definitely send someone herself.
He knows Lin Yazhu too well.
