He gave out such a terrifying aura that his servant would not even dare to refuse him, so he nodded. “Yes. Then I’ll… go and check on it immediately. It’s just that… about the Ye Group…”
Ye Linhan’s eyes turned cold all of a sudden. “If he really is dead, isn’t the Ye Group already at my fingertips now? Do we need to worry about being a few days short?” He was right. If Ye Moxuan lost his life, what could he use to compete with Ye Linhan? He stood to lose everything—his company, his wife, and his kid.
“You’re right, Young Master Linhan. If he’s dead, then the Ye Group is already yours. We’re not short of a few days.”
Ye Linhan turned cold. “Then, why aren’t you carrying your task now?”
“Y-Yes. I’ll go and check it right away.”
As soon as he was gone, Ye Linhan stared at the contract that he was about to sign and squinted his narrow eyes. He left it unsigned and lifted the contract to look at it before a smile suddenly crossed his lips. “Ye Moxuan, is it because of divine justice that this happened to you?” Afterward, he tore the contract in half and his eyes filled with mockery. He lost his life on the day of his wedding. This really is good news.
However, Ye Linhan frowned when he thought about Han Muzi. I wonder how she is now. Is she sad about it?
…
Han Muzi had stayed in the hospital for the past two days to recover from her injuries. After she was drenched in the rain, her body actually did not get better although she had regained consciousness. Instead, she got a fever.
Initially, despite the fever, her mind was still clear, but her temperature varied from high to low. At night, she started to have a high fever and it would not go down. Soon after, Han Muzi slipped into a coma. Before she lost her consciousness, she held Han Qing’s hand tightly while murmuring, “Moxuan. You must… find him. He will be alright. He will be alright… Moxuan…”
She continued to murmur and it centered around Ye Moxuan. Han Qing, who was a big man, even felt the pain of his hand being grabbed on by her.
When the doctor treated Han Muzi, he was surprised to see the finger marks on Han Qing’s hand. “The lady is unconscious, so why does she still have such a huge strength?”
Han Qing glanced at his hand and smiled bitterly. Exactly. For Ye Moxuan, she can even give up her life.
“Doctor, what is my sister’s situation?”
The doctor sighed and set his glasses straight before he softly explained, “To be honest, your sister’s current condition is bad. If she keeps on having a high fever, the situation will be critical. Besides, you know that she is pregnant, so the hospital needs to use its medication for her carefully. That is why… I advise to treat her with physical cooling before her fever goes down. We can handle the rest after the fever.”
Physical cooling? Han Qing pressed his lips together. Even though this was the only option to treat Han Muzi’s condition, it still seemed a bit dangerous for him. After all, her body was now in a weak state. But, what other choices do we have other than this? Han Qing nodded after he thought about it.
Su Jiu, who stood aside said, “This method is something I’m familiar with. When my child had a fever, he was afraid of taking medicine, so this was how I cured his fever. President Han, you’ve been staying by Miss Muzi for a while now. I think it’s time for you to have a rest. I’ll take over from here.”
The doctor nodded in agreement. “That’s right. It’s better to have people who know how to handle this properly.”
“He’s right, President Han. Go take a rest,” Su Jiu advised him.
Han Qing pressed his lips while looking at the unconscious Han Muzi worryingly. Then, he quietly nodded and stood up, but her hand held on tightly to his.
Su Jiu saw the situation and helped immediately. Finally, Han Qing’s hand was freed, and Su Jiu replaced his hand with hers for Han Muzi to grab on to. “Leave the rest to me.” She smiled gently.
Han Qing pressed his thin lips as he gazed at her before nodding his head. “Alright. Thank you.” With that, he turned and left the ward.
The past few days had been heart-wrenching for Han Qing. Back then when he had just acknowledged this sister of his, he flew back and forth between China and abroad so that he was able to continue with his work after. Even so, it was not as difficult before as it was now. At least, at that time, he was in a good mood, so everything became so meaningful to him and made him very lively. However, these few days had brought nothing but agonizing pain. Even though Ye Moxuan was not actually his brother-in-law at the end, he still felt the pain and grief in his heart whenever he thought that the man who ruled the Ye Group of North City might be gone from this world forever.
As Han Qing frowned his eyebrows, someone suddenly came to report to him, “President Han, there is someone outside claiming that she knows Miss Muzi, and she insisted on coming in.”
Someone who knows Muzi? Han Qing thought about it for a second before saying to him, “Bring me over to have a look.”
When Han Qing was brought over by that person, he heard a familiar woman’s voice before arriving. “I really know Muzi. I’ve just returned from X Country. After I landed here today, I spent a long time finding her until I came to this hospital. I’m her good friend. I stayed back to deal with other matters after the accident at her wedding. Stop blocking me and let me in.”
This voice… Han Qing was startled. Isn’t this Yan’s voice? So much had happened in the past few days that he had almost forgotten about her. Han Qing quickened his steps at this thought and showed up in front of everybody.
“President Han, this woman says…”
After she saw Han Qing, Yan’s eyes brightened and she instinctively wanted to call him, but she did not know what to say. ‘President Han’ or ‘Mr. Han’ was not something she wanted to call him, so she shoved the words down her throat and waved to him with excitement.
“Let her in.” Han Qing’s eyes faintly landed on Yan. Naturally, he saw that the lady’s once worried face had suddenly turned bright after seeing him. Then, she followed by waving at him excitingly. This face… in Han Qing’s eyes, really looked like a dog in exuberance at seeing his master before madly wagging its tail to show its loyalty and happiness.
After Yan was given the freedom to pass through, she rushed over to Han Qing. “Han…” She instantly stopped and asked, “How is Muzi? Have you found Young Master Ye?”
Han Qing frowned as he rubbed his forehead and shook his head.
At this moment, Yan’s face fell again. “N-No? Then Muzi…”
“She’s got a fever.” He slowly opened his mouth and spoke in a hoarse voice, “Her situation isn’t too good and we haven’t found him yet. Have you handled everything in X Country?”
Yan nodded. “It’s all handled, but… I was unable to keep the media back. I’ve checked about it when I was coming here and found out that news of the incident had been reported across China. Now, almost everyone in North City knows about it.”
Han Qing’s eyes darkened as he lowered them. No one knew what he was thinking.
