“Mr. Xin, I know you did your best, so please don’t take it too hard.” Xu Tingchuan looked up at Xin Zikai with gratitude.
"It was my oversight, otherwise this wouldn't have happened." Xin Zikai sighed and shook his head, routinely performing a heart rate check on Ni Sitian.
After confirming that everything was normal, he put away the medical kit. He looked at Xu Tingchuan and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Xu, please take care of yourself. You've lost a lot of weight. Your wife might not recognize you when she wakes up."
"Thank you." Xu Tingchuan nodded slightly to Xin Zikai.
Xin Zikai said no more and walked out of the ward. After leaving the inpatient department, he saw an acquaintance in the waiting hall.
He strode over and called out in surprise and delight, "Ayan."
The woman wearing a hat and with her head down raised her face, and it turned out to be the mute maid from the Su family.
That face had many mottled, fine scars, indicating that it had undergone cosmetic surgery. However, the face was probably too badly damaged, and there was no way to fix it. It was so ugly that it was shocking.
"Zikai." This woman named Ayan was not mute, but her voice was rough and hoarse, as if it had been sanded, and her pronunciation sounded very difficult.
"What are you doing here? Are you sick?" Xin Zikai asked nervously as he reached out to touch Ayan's forehead.
Clearly, the two were quite familiar with each other, and Ayan did not resist, only giving a faint smile: "It's just a little cold."
Xin Zikai insisted on accompanying Ayan to see a doctor first.
After getting the medicine, he took Ayan to a nearby coffee shop, ordered her a glass of milk, and asked somewhat impatiently, "You suddenly disappeared half a year ago, saying you had some business to take care of, but you ended up in Yihai instead. Why didn't you contact me at all?"
"Things are rather difficult to handle." Ayan seemed ashamed of her rough, hoarse voice, and remained mostly silent.
"What exactly happened? Has it been resolved?" Xin Zikai asked with concern.
"I guess it's done." Ayan clearly didn't want to talk about these things anymore. In fact, Su Yan still hadn't caught him, and she couldn't let it go in her heart.
“I’ve been in Yihai for almost a month now. If I had known you were here, we should have met sooner.” Xin Zikai seemed quite used to her quiet nature, and told her about his recent events.
Actually, even if he didn't say it, she already knew all about it; she had been paying attention to it all along.
When she learned that they had brought Xin Zikai, she initially thought she had been discovered, but later, when she found out it was for Ni Sitian's detoxification, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She had once seen Xu Tingchuan and Ni Sitian from afar. She never imagined that Xu Tingchuan would marry such a delicate and sweet-looking wife. Strangely enough, she felt that they were a good match and had an indescribable harmony when they stood together, making people feel happy just looking at them.
So when she learned that Su Yan was colluding with the people who harmed Ni Sitian, she couldn't help but secretly tell Xu Tingchuan.
Actually, she initially just wanted to give it a try. After so many years, she didn't even know if his email address had changed.
Fortunately, the good news was delivered in time, preventing more serious consequences.
It's a pity she didn't discover this before Ni Sitian was poisoned, otherwise she could have warned them to take precautions earlier.
"Then, did you cure the poison that the person you mentioned had?" Ayan couldn't help but ask about this matter.
