door open and a man come out, he immediately took a step back and bowed respectfully: "Sir, the police station just called me. They said that girl went to the police station last night covered in inju...Late at night.

Intensive Care Unit.

The bodyguard whispered at the door, "Master Fu, I just got in touch with Deputy Official Pei's assistant. He said that after Deputy Official Pei entered the Kunlun Mountains, he lost contact and his current situation is unknown."

Fu Lingxiao sat by the bedside, his bony hand holding Mu Xing's small hand gently, trying to warm her. However, her little hand remained icy cold.

Like a small piece of ice, it froze from his palm all the way into his heart, making him shiver in pain.

Fearing he might disturb the child's rest, he gently pursed his lips and said, “Tell Situ Xun to dispatch more men. As long as we can bring Shi Ye back in the shortest possible time, no matter the cost, even if it means blowing up the Kunlun Mountains.”

"Yes."

The bodyguard closed the door and stood in the hallway to call Si Tu Xun.

Fu Lingxiao reached out and touched Mu Xing's cold face, his low voice tinged with pleading: "Xing'er, promise me, you must persevere..."

Not long after, the door to the ward was pushed open again.

Yu Rong walked in, "Mr. Fu, I'm here to check on Miss Mu Xing."

Fu Lingxiao didn't speak, his hollow eyes fixed on Mu Xing, seeing only darkness.

Yu Rong finished checking Mu Xing, her expression becoming increasingly serious.

She looked at Fu Lingxiao, fortunately this man couldn't see her now, she didn't have to worry about her expression being too worried and making him suspicious.

"Miss Mu Xing's condition is currently stable."

"With that, Yu Rong turned and left. A low voice suddenly came from behind her: "Mu Xing's situation is so dangerous, won't he come back to see her"

Yu Rong's footsteps paused, she turned back to look at Fu Lingxiao, "Mr. Fu, what are you talking about"

Fu Lingxiao also turned to look at her. His black eyes held no light, yet they were still imposing. "It's pointless to pretend any longer. For your sake of not harming Mu Xing, I have kept you until now."

Yu Rong's eyebrows furrowed suddenly, her heart full of surprise.

Her information, everything that can be found, is true. She thinks she's always hidden it well.

Where did he hear that

It has remained completely silent until now.

This man's scheming is truly frightening!

She frowned and stared at Fu Lingxiao, only to see him open and close his thin lips again. His indifferent voice carried a hint of command, "Contact him and tell him to come back."

Yu Rong didn't speak, she quickly walked out of the observation room.

At this time, He Chao just happened to come over to see Mu Xing.

The two people met in the hallway.

He Chao really didn't want to see Fu Lingxiao, fearing that he would lose control and clash with him again. Seeing Yu Rong come out of the ward, he simply asked her, "Yu Jie, how is Mu Xing doing now"

"Still stable."

He Chao nodded, "Sister Yu, you go to my office and rest. I'll stay here for a while."

"Mm."

Yu Rong hurried away, but instead of going to the office, she went to the rooftop of the inpatient department.

She stood before the railing at the edge, calming herself for a while, then took out a special communication device and dialed a number.

We really need to bring him back. Little clumsy girl's situation is worse than we expected before, she's completely out of her depth for the first time, and even...even she can't guarantee keeping herself alive for a month.

And what worried her even more...

The other party's communicator is off.

Yu Rong edited a message and sent it, then put away her communicator.

Behind me, a faint sound suddenly came.

She turned alertly, catching sight of the man walking towards her. The tension in her body eased. "How did you get here"

It's not for that girl.

The man with a beard walked up to Yu Rong and said, “Before he left, he specifically instructed me that once the poison in that girl reaches 100%, the Black Domain will definitely take action, and I'm here to protect her.”

Yu Rong, upon hearing this, abruptly turned her head to look at him, “You’ve been secretly watching that little fool all along When she was in danger, why didn't you step in”

"I don't want to."

The man with a beard spoke in a cold, displeased tone. "The sooner that girl succumbs to the poison, the sooner everything that happened because of her will be resolved. She's already wasted twelve years of your lives; are you going to let her waste your entire lives"

Yu Rong let out a long sigh, "We volunteered, Tu Yan. This is what we owe her."

"Nonsense!"

Tu Yan grabbed the handrail on the wall with both hands, his eyes fixed on the scar on his tiger's mouth. "Back then, if it weren't for you risking everything to save her, she would have been dead long ago. For these twelve years, you have hidden your identities to take care of her. No matter what you owe her, it should be repaid!"

Yu Rong didn't want to argue with him, she only said: "Take good care of her, you know how much he cares about her."

Tu Yan frowned, fell silent for a moment, then looked at Yu Rong, "And you, Rongrong, when will you think of yourself"

"Me"

Yu Rong looked up at the dark night sky, a bitter smile playing on her lips. "Since I can't get what I want in this lifetime, then I hope he can. At least one person should be happy."

A smile at the corner of her eyes, with a glimmer of tears.

Tu Yan wanted to help her brush it away, but his hand never mustered the courage to reach out.

He smiled wryly, "Unable to get what we want, you're not the only one, Rongrong."

- A secluded garden.

A man sat by the window. The room was unlit, and the dim moonlight cast upon his grim and sharp features.

The phone on his knee emitted a cold voice: "Boss, the toxin content of the subject has reached one hundred percent, but she's not dead. Our live virus cultivation was successful."

A trace of cold laughter passed across the man's lips, "Very good. Deploy the next plan immediately. Scatter Fu Lingxiao's forces and bring the experimental subject back as soon as possible while it is still alive!"

"Yes!"

After hanging up the phone, the man’s hand caressed his cane, his sharp eyes filled with cruel mockery.

Twelve years ago, you risked everything to save the subject, but in doing so, you inadvertently allowed me to successfully cultivate a live virus.

Next time we meet, I definitely have to thank you properly.

See you soon.

-The sky was just beginning to lighten.

Shen Yue woke from his coma, opening his eyes to see his unlucky sister asleep on the edge of the bed, with a bit of drool hanging from her mouth.

She has a conscience for coming to see him.

But, the sleeping position is really kind of disgusting.

At this point, she should call He Chao over to see her hideous appearance and see if he still finds her attractive!

Shen Qing thought with disdain, pulled over the thin blanket gently covering her, pulled out the needle from the back of her hand's IV line, lifted the covers and got out of bed from the other side, taking unsteady steps out of the ward.

The bodyguard at the door, seeing him come out, couldn't help but fix his gaze on his left cheek.

There's no way, that slap mark is just too obvious.

It's hard not to see.

Shen Lue saw him staring at the left side of his face and touched it in confusion, "What are you looking at Does this young master have a flower on his face"

The bodyguard chuckled silently, "Young Master Shen, you might want to take a look in the mirror."Chi saw his expression, she was extremely pleased.Even the pain of being shot in the shoulder was diluted by this feeling of euphoria.Anyway, I'm going to die today anyway, so I might as well disgust...
