"How's Zhao?"
As soon as he left the intensive care unit, Rui Qing quickly stepped forward and asked.
Baili Xiyao's phoenix eyes swept over Rui Qing, only to see that her eyes were red and swollen, and there were bright tear marks on her charming little face. "It's okay, baby was a little tired and fell asleep again. Once Lin Sen's blood test results come out, we'll know if she can be transferred to a general ward." As he spoke, Baili Xiyao looked at the others, and his voice returned to its usual indifferent tone. "You guys go back first. Baby probably won't wake up again today. I'll just stay here. With so many of you guarding, baby will be under a lot of pressure."
Everyone had originally planned to stay and guard together, but after hearing Baili Xiyao's last words, they gave up the idea.
He Mozhao had just returned to the He family and was now sick. He could not stand any stimulation or pressure.
Therefore, except for Rui Qing and He Xiao, everyone else was sent back.
Seeing Baili Xiyao silently guarding the door, Rui Qing didn't know what to say for a moment, so she leaned her head in He Xiao's arms, looking through the glass window with tearful eyes at He Mozhao who was already asleep inside, and the pain in her heart increased instead of decreasing.
Compared to the quietness here, Xiao Rui, who had just started the car in the basement of the hospital and was about to buy food for Baili Xiyao, suddenly smashed the steering wheel in anger.
"Depend on!"
"Brother Rui, are you okay?" Xiao Jiu on the other end of the phone felt a little worried when he heard the sound that sounded like something was being smashed.
Xiao Rui didn't answer, but gritted his teeth and ordered: "You and Eleven find a way to get Zhen Linye's whereabouts from Zhen Qi as soon as possible." This bastard, I don't believe he can disappear out of thin air!
After Xiao Jiu responded, Xiao Rui hung up the phone, sat quietly in the car for a while, and then started the car and left.
The next day, He Mozhao woke up on the hospital bed in the general ward.
The slightly curled long eyelashes moved the eyelids, slowly opening and closing, and after repeating this several times, they finally opened completely. The eyes were hazy and had not yet recovered from sleep.
He Mozhao opened his eyes and saw that the ceiling was different from the last time. His mind was still a little confused after waking up, so there was confusion in his eyes.
Have you changed the ward?
He Mozhao moved his fingers and found that there was a constant flow of warmth coming from the back of his hand. He tilted his head slightly and looked down, and saw Baili Xiyao's pair of jade hands wrapped around his right hand. Her palms were burning hot, and even his hands, which were always slightly cold, were infected with a burst of warmth.
Feeling warm in his heart, He Mozhao was about to call her when he saw Baili Xiyao let go of his right hand and instead held his left hand on his abdomen.
He Mozhao turned his left hand over and placed it palm against Baili Xiyao's. Seeing Baili Xiyao tilt his head to look at him, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" Baili Xiyao saw that He Mozhao had woken up, so he used his free hand to tidy up the hair on his forehead and spoke softly.
He Mozhao shook his head and said, "I'm a little hungry." As he spoke, the fingertips on his abdomen moved slightly, hooking Baili Xiyao's slender fingers, and his voice was soft and hoarse, "You must not have had a good rest again."
There was no bloodshot in his eyes, but the hostility between his brows still existed faintly.
Hearing this, Baili Xiyao paused his hand that was combing his hair, and turned to stroke He Mozhao's thin and handsome face. He wanted to say that it was okay, and that he had recovered his divine body and could go without sleep for a year. But looking at those eyes full of worry, Baili Xiyao changed the subject and coaxed him in a gentle voice: "You can sleep after you finish your meal, don't worry."
"You know everything?"
Suddenly, a sentence without beginning or end came out of He Mozhao's mouth, his voice was hoarse and trembling imperceptibly.
This is clearly a question, yet it sounds very affirmative.
"Yeah," Baili Xiyao responded with his eyes closed, hiding the pain in his eyes.
"Five years ago, I returned to Licheng and the Zhen family, and personally forced Zhen Linye to burn everything. I saw with my own eyes those things burned to ashes, but I didn't expect that there would still be a loophole," He Mozhao smiled bitterly, trying to pretend that he didn't care.
Baili Xiyao didn't say anything. He leaned over and gently hugged He Mozhao, saying silently in his heart:
Baby, believe me, once I catch Zhen Linye, I will make everything disappear, disappear forever, and everything you hate and fear will no longer exist.
"I'm sorry," He Mozhao whispered again.
"Baby, I did nothing wrong, why should I say sorry?" I am the one who should say sorry. If I had known that you would suffer so much in this world, I would rather raise you in Jimo Mountain, slowly nurture your remaining soul, and wait for the return of your soul that was swallowed by Fengtian. Even if it takes thousands or even tens of thousands of years, it is better than you suffering like this.
"I'm sorry to have made you worry," he said weakly, which frightened Baili Xiyao so much that his heart tightened and he quickly stood up to look at him.
In just a few words, He Mozhao's fatigue became even more severe. After he finished speaking, he fell into a deep sleep again.
He Mozhao's condition remained unstable after he was admitted to the general ward, and his sleeping time was prolonged.
According to the blood test results provided by Lin Linsen, the medicine injected into He Mozhao's neck could only be found to contain tranquilizer ingredients, and based on the dosage, that amount was enough to be fatal. However, not only did He Mozhao not die, he also woke up after a short coma, which led to the incident that almost caused He Mozhao to die due to cardiac arrest and no timely rescue.
In recent days, He Mozhao has been awake for only two hours a day. If Baili Xiyao had not used her divine power to investigate and found that it was just the sequelae of exhaustion, she would have blown off the roof of the hospital long ago.
Unfortunately, the Heart Protecting Seal can only slowly warm the heart meridian while protecting the heart's function, and it cannot cure it directly in one step. What's more, this is a heart disease and there is no cure for it.
Xiao Rui knocked lightly on the ward door. He only pushed it open after hearing the icy sound of "enter". Looking at He Mozhao sleeping soundly on the bed, Xiao Rui approached and lowered his voice, "Boss, we've found Zhen Linye. He's in the Yequan District of Shuicheng. If he were somewhere else, it would be easy to deal with him, but there's a mountain called Yeshan in the Yequan District, a state-owned mining area. It's also a very strange place. It might not be easy to capture Zhen Linye alive."
"Yeshan?" Baili Xiyao's voice was cold, but he looked at He Mozhao with a gentle and doting look. He raised his hand to smooth the hair on He Mozhao's forehead. He didn't want to worry about a group of people who would go back on their words anymore. He withdrew his right hand, made a hand flower, and waved it towards the air, "Qiongqi, obey my order."
"Huh?" Xiao Rui didn't react, thinking he'd misheard. Just as he was about to ask Baili Xiyao what he meant, a strange creature suddenly appeared in the ward. Um... a creature? It looked like a tiger, with wings. Could it be a cross between a tiger and some bird?
Don't mention it, he's pretty handsome...
When the huge monster suddenly appeared saw Baili Xiyao sitting on the edge of the bed, it immediately shrank its body, folded its wings, and turned into a milky white little tiger, not even as tall as Xiao Rui's knees.
But this is not what shocked Xiao Rui the most...
What shocked Xiao Rui the most was that this thing could actually speak. It had a deep voice, but it spoke in a timid manner, which was extremely discordant.
"Sir, please give me your orders," he said, digging the ground with his front paws and lowering his big, tiger-like head.
