"Yes." Shi Xi nodded, her expression serious. "We absolutely have to go."
I couldn't help but wonder.
Why is Chi Yan'an, who is obsessed with his younger brother, asking Chi Zaiqing this question instead of stopping him?
"Okay."
Chi Yan'an pursed her lips, seemingly unable to resist his advances and forced to compromise.
"I'll go too," he said.
Shi Xi: "..." No, I meant for you to manage him, not help him!
Shi Xi suspected that Chi Yan'an had lost his mind.
Ugh, brother complex is terrifying.
Shi Xi couldn't help but complain in her heart.
Upon hearing this, Chi Zaiqing smiled at Shi Xi and, following Chi Yan'an's words, said, "Then it's settled."
Sheng Yingpu stood aside without saying a word. He had come from the battlefield, so naturally he was going to go back with Shi Xi.
...
After discussing the departure arrangements, Shi Xi suggested visiting Gao Tingyu in the hospital before leaving.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Zaiqing and Chi Yan'an exchanged a glance, and their expressions immediately became subtle.
Chi Zaiqing smiled and said, "Aran, you should rest for a bit. I'll call you when the car arrives."
...When the car arrives?
Chi Yan'an and Sheng Yingpu couldn't have walked here; their car must be nearby. So you haven't let Gao Tingyu go back yet.
\"become.\"
Shi Xi gently patted Chi Zaiqing's cheek. "I'll go back to my bedroom and wait."
Chi Zaiqing breathed a sigh of relief. After Shi Xi returned to her room, he took out his spare terminal and started sending messages.
Chi Yan'an glanced at Chi Zaiqing, seemingly unsurprised by his actions.
Seeing the two of them like this, and recalling their reactions when they heard Gao Tingyu's name, Sheng Yingpu had a vague guess in his mind.
His previously mild expression instantly turned gloomy.
The door was still open. After sending the message, Chi Zaiqing walked into the emergency exit.
Lower your voice and say to the other end of the terminal:
"You'd better behave yourself. I'm not as easygoing as Aran."
"If you dare to say anything reckless..."
Before she could finish speaking, she bumped into the old lady who had come looking for Shi Xi.
Her husband, Asheng, said he got along well with those burly beta men.
But she was a little worried. She thought that Shi Xi, as someone who had been through this before, must have experience with it, so she thought she would ask her for advice.
Unexpectedly, I overheard Chi Zaiqing's words, which sounded exactly like a threat.
The old woman let out a gasp.
Oh my goodness!
I didn't expect Xiao Ran to be the bottom one too. No wonder he wasn't interested in A Sheng.
It turns out it was a case of duplicate numbers.
Xiao Ran's boyfriend seems like someone you shouldn't mess with...
Because Chi Zaiqing is 1.83 meters tall, the old lady mistook him for an Alpha.
"What do you want with Aran?" Recognizing who the other person was, Chi Zaiqing's face darkened and his tone turned icy.
It seemed the commotion was a bit loud, and soon both Chi Yan'an and Sheng Yingpu went outside.
The two Alphas, one in front and one behind, both looked at her with displeasure.
"...No, it's nothing, I was just passing by." The old woman recalled Shi Xi's words earlier, and didn't dare to say anything more. She ran up without looking back.
"What happened?" Shi Xi rushed over upon hearing the commotion.
"It's alright." Chi Zaiqing walked up to Shi Xi and said with a smile, "The car has arrived."
Sheng Yingpu glanced at Chi Zaiqing.
He snorted coldly in his heart.
—The master of face-changing has returned to the scene.
...
As soon as I arrived at the hospital entrance, I saw Pei Muban standing in the lobby.
The other party seemed to have been waiting for him, and opened the glass door for him before Shi Xi could even go in.
"You've arrived." Pei Mu nodded to him.
"?" Although she didn't understand why Pei Muban was here, Shi Xi still greeted him.
Pei Muban looked at Shi Xi. He had also seen today's report and anticipated that Shi Xi would definitely say goodbye to his sister, so he waited here.
However, he did not expect that in just half a day, the plum wine scent of Shi Xi's pheromones not only became stronger, but also had the scent of other Alphas.
"...Boss, what's this?" Shi Xi blinked and looked up at him with a sheepish smile.
I thought to myself.
Are they here to arrest him?
"Going mad."
Pei Mu said in a bad mood.
After speaking, Alpha did not hesitate at all and turned to walk to Sheng Yingpu's side.
This means I want to be with them.
Shi Xi looked puzzled.
"Boss, you..."
"The mainstays have all run away." Pei Mu's half-gray-green eyes glanced at Shi Xi, a strange emotion lurking in them, and he said calmly, "Why should I stay and clean up this mess?"
"..." Shi Xi frowned, "It's not that bad."
He didn't think it was that serious. Even without him, there were other excellent mercenaries. How could it have become such a mess?
Instead of wasting time following him, Pei Muban would rather find someone who can replace him.
Pei Mu glanced at Shi Xi and said jokingly, "My pillar of strength."
"Come back after you've fulfilled your dream of becoming a soldier."
"We'll talk about it later," Shi Xi replied dismissively.
I thought to myself.
That time never happened.
So there's nothing to say.
...
The moment the ward door closed, Chi Zaiqing immediately raised his hand and turned on his Bluetooth headset.
Chi Yan'an stepped forward, lowered his eyes, and looked intently at Chi Zaiqing, seemingly unwilling to miss any expression on his face.
Chi Zaiqing didn't care about Chi Yan'an's gaze, and her face remained expressionless.
Pei Mu glanced at the two with his half-gray-green eyes, and thought that Chi Yan'an was indeed as rumored—
He's a total brother-obsessed guy.
He looked away after only a second, crossed his arms, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes to rest.
Chi Zaiqing noticed another gaze and glanced up at Sheng Yingpu.
The next second, I heard the conversation between Shi Xi and Gao Tingyu.
Shi Xi looked at Gao Tingyu, who was lying on the hospital bed and looked unwell, and asked, "Tingyu, why do you look so pale?"
"Brother, I'm fine, I just had another attack." Gao Tingyu forced a smile and coughed twice, clutching his chest.
Her brows furrowed slightly, tears welled in her eyes, and she gazed at Shi Xi with a tearful expression, as if she had suffered a great injustice. "Brother, it hurts so much."
"Can the surgery be brought forward? I feel so uncomfortable..."
She has been locked in the Chi family's basement for the past two days, without any medical care on call, no exquisite and delicious meals, and no soft and comfortable pillows. Her life has been extremely miserable.
Even so, when questioned by Chi Zaiqing, she only insisted that it was because of jealousy, and did not reveal that she coveted Shi Xi's heart.
In front of her, Chi Zaiqing made no attempt to hide his feelings for Shi Xi.
She knew perfectly well—
If he finds out, I'm doomed!
But what did she do wrong? She just wanted to live!
Why is Gao Buran so lucky, always encountering benefactors no matter what happens, while she can only lie in a hospital bed and accept his charity!
On what grounds?!
This is unfair!!
She absolutely must win Gao Buran's heart!!!
Gao Tingyu's emotions were so obvious that even without the ability to read minds, Shi Xi could guess what she was thinking.
