Dr. Chen shook his head regretfully, "The burns were too severe; a chunk of flesh is missing. There's little hope for recovery."
"No, you must help me get back to how I was before, no matter what it takes."
"If I could, I would do it without you having to tell me, but I really can't do it."
Dr. Chen gave a few instructions and then left the ward.
Only Qiu Yao remained in the ward, comforting Xing Chu, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way."
With modern medicine being so advanced, there must be a way to cure her face.
As long as she doesn't lose heart, it's only a matter of time before her face recovers.
"Shut up." Xingchu pulled out a pillow and threw it at him, yelling, "It's all your fault! Why were you so late?"
If he hadn't arrived a step too late, she wouldn't have been so badly injured, and that bitch even disfigured her.
I wonder if that bitch is dead or not.
Thinking of this, her eyes grew even fiercer. "I'm asking you, did you kill her last night?"
"I... must save you first. Dr. Chen also said that if we had come any later, you wouldn't have made it."
"So... she's still alive?"
Xingchu clenched his fists and closed his eyes in resentment.
He's useless; he missed such a great opportunity.
She suffered such severe injuries and was disfigured, yet the person who injured her got away scot-free.
She simply couldn't swallow this insult.
Seeing her angry, Qiu Yao immediately became anxious, "Xing Chu, there will be plenty of opportunities to take revenge later, but if you lose your life, you will really have nothing left."
Why can't she understand his good intentions?
He simply couldn't bear to watch her die.
So even if he has to endure her complaints and criticisms, he will still do it.
"Easy for you to say. She's a very secretive person. Maybe her real identity is the same as ours. Tell me how to kill her?"
“I’ll go kill her. If you really insist on killing her, then… I’ll go kill her.”
Xing Chu glanced at him sideways, her tone softening slightly, "Are you really going to help me kill her?"
It would be best if someone were willing to help her, but I'm afraid even he wouldn't be a match for that woman.
Through last night's contest, she could tell that the woman's sharpness and speed were extraordinary.
There must be some powerful force behind her that we can't easily offend, so let Qiu Yao go and investigate for her first.
......
When Mo Shiyan woke up, it was already past nine o'clock. He tapped his slightly dizzy head and walked to the sofa to pour himself a glass of water.
After drinking water and resting for a while, he changed his clothes and went next door to knock on Lu Ci's door.
Lu Ci, lying on the bed, had no choice but to stop what he was doing and looked at the door with displeasure, his previous good mood completely gone.
He got up, put on his bathrobe, and slowly walked towards the door.
When she opened the door and saw Mo Shiyan's increasingly haggard face, she swallowed back the words she wanted to say to him.
"What's the matter so early in the morning?"
"It's past nine o'clock, is it still early?"
"Alright, it's getting late. What do you want?"
"It's okay, I'll ask you to have breakfast together."
Lu Ci rubbed his temples, suppressing the urge to punch him.
He patted him on the shoulder. "President Mo, don't you know that only single people eat breakfast?"
Mo Shiyan saw the marks on his neck and the unsatisfied look in his eyes, and instantly understood.
He unintentionally disrupted someone else's good time.
The thought that Lu Ci already had a girlfriend while Yingying was still nowhere to be found made him feel increasingly lonely.
"Then I'll go by myself."
Despite his tall and imposing figure, for some reason, Lu Ci felt a sense of insignificance and pitifulness from him.
"You go downstairs and wait here. I'll come down and eat with you later."
He never expected that Sui Sui's disappearance would change him so much. Except in front of outsiders, his usual composure and calmness had all disappeared.
"Okay." Mo Shiyan responded cheerfully, pulled his baseball cap down, and walked towards the restaurant on the first floor.
Lu Ci closed the door and returned to the bed, reaching out to hug her slender waist. "I have to go downstairs to have dinner with someone first. I'll bring her back to you."
He knew that Hua Yinyou wasn't ready yet, so he had always been reluctant to see the people around him.
He didn't want to force her; he would take it slow. One day he would definitely open her heart completely and make her accept him.
"I'll go down with you."
The woman's answer surprised him, and he asked again in shock, "You said you wanted to come down with me?"
Does this mean she's willing to accept all of herself?
Looking at his joyful face, Hua Yinyou couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Lu Ci, I've made up my mind. Once Yingying is found, let's get married, okay?"
This was a decision she made after much consideration. She used to dislike being tied down, so she never even considered spending her life with anyone.
However, after Yingying disappeared, Ji Yan almost went insane, and even Mo Shiyan reverted to his old self.
She then realized what it meant to lose the most important person in her life.
She also wondered what she would do if Lu Ci were no longer by her side one day.
Compared to Ji Yan and Mo Shiyan, they probably aren't much better off.
So life is too short, why not enjoy it while we can?
Lu Ci was like a spring breaking free from heavy pressure, and he stood up with a 'whoosh'.
"Youyou, repeat what you just said." Did he mishear?
Otherwise, how could I have heard the word "marriage" from her mouth?
Hua Yinyou pulled him in front of her, her tone extremely serious, "I said, if we find Yingying, we'll get married."
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Lu Ci's face radiated boundless joy.
The ecstatic light in his eyes was impossible to conceal.
"Okay, we'll get married when Sui Sui comes back. She'll be so happy."
"She'll be back soon, so don't worry too much," Hua Yinyou comforted him.
After all, he didn't know Yingying's other identity, so it was understandable that he was worried and anxious.
"I know that no matter how long it takes, I will find her."
"Okay, let's go down first."
The two held hands and went to the restaurant on the first floor.
Mo Shiyan sat there absentmindedly, his eyes vacant, seemingly lost in thought.
The two sat opposite him, but Mo Shiyan didn't even bother to turn around and glance at them.
"Mo Shiyan, have you forgotten how long Yingying tried to help you get rid of this side of yourself?"
Hua Yinyou's cold questioning finally brought Mo Shiyan back to his senses.
He turned back to look at her in a daze, then glanced at Lu Ci beside her, "How... how did you two end up together?"
