Yun Shen’s eyes gradually grew deeper as he stared intensely at her, his gaze ablaze with such infatuation that he seemed to lose himself in it. His hoarse voice called out a name. His fingers gently touched her cheek as if afraid, then abruptly retracted. But Kang Jinxian suddenly caught his hand, placing it back on her face. Although her heart ached to the point of bleeding, her face smiled gently and obsessively. "Brother Shen, I love you...." Suddenly, he pushed her down onto the desk with a ferocity akin to a wild beast pouncing on its prey. Kang Jinxian’s head dangled over the edge of the desk, her long hair cascading down like a ghostly woman, sinister and horrifying. Her body ached as if it were being torn apart; she had never seen him so crazed before... Yet, she smiled with the corners of her mouth hooked up. I am willing to fall with you into the darkest abyss. My brother, you will never know how much I love you... Even as just a substitute, I embrace it wholeheartedly. But one day, I will make sure your heart only has room for me... At the best private hospital in Jiangzhou, Li Nan paced anxiously outside the emergency room. She glanced uneasily toward the direction of the operating room from time to time. What to do, what to do, if Miss suffers any harm, I’m as good as dead. Not daring to hide it from the lady, she had called her on the way to the hospital. The lady calmed her down, first getting in touch with the hospital, urgently dispatching the best doctors, then reaching out to several acquaintances in Jiangzhou to look after things at the hospital. She was on the earliest flight to Jiangzhou. The lady was already on her way. Ye Xiaoxiao was the Ye Family’s precious treasure. If anything happened to her, she would undoubtedly be killed by the lady. All she could do was pray for Miss’s safety. The lights in the operating room finally went off, and shortly after, the doctors and nurses came out, pushing an emergency bed. Li Nan hurried forward. "Miss?" Ye Xiaoxiao was wrapped up like a mummy, her eyes tightly closed; even if she screamed her lungs out, Xiaoxiao wouldn’t hear. The doctor stopped her: "Are you a family member of the patient?" Li Nan nodded: "Yes." She grabbed the doctor’s sleeve urgently, asking, "Doctor, how is my Miss?" The doctor sighed: "The poison was too strong. It’s good that she was brought in on time. She’s now out of life-threatening danger, but the poison had a strong corrosive effect. It can cause the skin to necrotize and discharge pus. Even though we’ve managed to stop it, you should prepare for the possibility of disfigurement. However, don’t worry; with medical science so advanced, it’s not without hope of treatment, but..." Li Nan quickly pressed: "But what?" "But we cannot rule out neurogenic sequelae. Let’s not be so pessimistic; we’ll observe the patient when she wakes up." With those words, he turned and left. Ye Xiaoxiao was moved into a VIP ward, where the hospital had been notified to provide the highest level of service. Ye Xiaoxiao didn’t wake up all night. Li Nan dozed off by the bedside, when suddenly, the door to the ward was pushed open from outside. Li Nan’s eyes snapped open alertly, and she stood up with a "whoosh". An elegant and dignified lady walked in, her face somber, betraying neither joy nor anger. Li Nan’s legs trembled, and instinctively, she lowered her head, her body involuntarily shivering: "Ma... Madam." "Click-clack, click-clack..." The sound of high heels on the floor echoed sharply and heavily in her ears. Piercing yet dull, strangely tightening one’s nerves. Yun Ya was woken by the persistent ringing of her cellphone, groggily grabbing the phone, she answered instinctively, her words slurred: "Hello...." "Ji Yunya." A deep voice suddenly chased away Yun Ya’s drowsiness. She glanced at the phone screen; it was four in the morning. Why was Brother Yan calling her now? "Brother Yan~ why are you calling at this time, what’s happened?" She lay back down, closing her eyes heavily. "I’m at your front door, come out." Yun Ya leaped from the bed, the last vestiges of sleep banished completely. Follow current novels on NoveI~Fire.net
