"What happened to Miss Liu? Why is she hospitalized?"
"It's strange," Tang Mu Xuan replied, "and so is Xie Yichang."
Tu Nan glanced at the three pairs of curious eyes in the rearview mirror and fell silent. Should he say something? It wouldn’t hurt, right? They probably already knew. But what if they didn’t? The thought of Mo Wan sent a shiver down his spine.
"You can ask about Miss Liu yourself when we get there," he finally said.
"Oh, I’m not disappointed," Tang Mu Xuan replied. He hadn’t expected to learn much from the assistant anyway.
Xie Yichang exchanged a glance with Tu Nan in the rearview mirror, nodded slightly, and then turned his gaze away first.
Tu Nan felt speechless. These wealthy people really knew how to play their games; they all seemed to enjoy it.
The car ride continued in silence.
Finally, they arrived at the hospital. Everyone inside the car hurriedly got out, unable to endure the oppressive atmosphere any longer.
Liu Da appeared just in time to rescue them, leading the other three towards the top floor of the hospital.
Tang Mu Xuan looked at Liu Da’s back and spoke up, "Excuse me, I’d like to ask about the two people who were just brought in?"
Liu Da turned around stiffly to look at Tang Mu Xuan. "They are on the same floor as our Miss."
With that, he turned away without any further pleasantries.
Tang Mu Xuan wanted to ask something else but noticed Lin Fengmian tugging at his sleeve. In confusion, he watched as Lin Fengmian pulled out his phone and opened a note to start typing.
Xie Yichang looked at Tang Mu Xuan with a puzzled expression. "Is this guy really from the criminal police team? I can’t believe it."
Tang Mu Xuan was still staring blankly at Lin Fengmian’s phone. He hadn’t expected this; he hadn’t seen it coming. Was it too late to apologize?
Lin Fengmian shook his head and gave Tang Mu Xuan a light pat on the shoulder as a simple gesture of comfort.
The note on the phone read: "His eyes are red; I think Miss Liu is not doing well."
In just a moment, the elevator reached the top floor. As they stepped out, they saw several people gathered there, apparently without any visible issues.
Upon closer inspection, it became evident that those carrying the patient were merely acting, likely to protect the person in the middle. Tang Mu Xuan, being sensible, was the first to approach Liu Ru Yan.
At that moment, Liu Ru Yan was still unconscious, and Lan Ruo Yi had no mood to entertain Tang Mu Xuan, offering only a perfunctory nod. Tang Mu Xuan stepped out with Liu Yuchuan and Mo Wan, the three of them communicating in the corridor.
Liu Yuchuan also noticed Xie Yichang, his eyes filled with disdain, as if he couldn't comprehend why this person was here. Why did he come? To apologize to me? Liu Yuchuan could only think of this reason. Otherwise, why would this person appear so suddenly?
Xie Yichang was still observing Liu Ru Yan and Lan Ruo Yi when he suddenly heard Liu Yuchuan's words and almost failed to react. Don't be so self-absorbed; if I were looking for someone, it would be my niece, not you! Xie Yichang retorted bluntly, feeling that this person was truly ridiculous for expecting gratitude when he had even sent him a banner—what a waste!
Liu Yuchuan's expression darkened as he contemplated cursing again but was stopped by Mo Wan: "Xie Yichang, I think you should explain why you're here."
Liu Yuchuan asked in confusion, "Do you know him?"
Tang Mu Xuan and Lin Fengmian exchanged puzzled glances.
Xie Yichang helplessly stuck out his tongue and frowned at Liu Yuchuan: "Brother, don't be angry. I just wanted to see Yi Yi."
Liu Yuchuan looked at Xie Yichang with surprise and then glanced at Mo Wan: "Do you two know each other?"
Realizing his folly in calling him brother without recognizing him, Liu Yuchuan felt foolish. "Look at me being silly; you already called me brother. My bad, big nephew; it seems I misunderstood you."
Having acknowledged their relationship, Liu Yuchuan began teasing Xie Yichang.
Xie Yichang felt frustrated but dared not express his anger; he knew his brother wouldn't take his side in this situation.
Meanwhile, in the room, Lan Ruo Yi thought that the head behind Tang Mu Xuan looked somewhat familiar. However, her thoughts were interrupted by a groan from the hospital bed. She quickly turned her attention back to Liu Ru Yan and saw her face pale, her brows furrowed in pain.
Lan Ruo Yi anxiously looked at her, worried about what was happening to the girl who had already been hospitalized twice in just three short days since arriving here.
The person's body had previously shown only limited energy, but now it felt like an incurable condition. Strangely, the hospital couldn't find any diagnosis.
As Lan Ruo Yi pondered this, a possibility suddenly struck her—one that had a high likelihood of being true.
Just then, an unexpected guest appeared in the hospital corridor.
"Liu Ge, why didn't you tell anyone you were here? If I hadn't seen you, I wouldn't have known you were unwell."
A woman in high heels, wearing a form-fitting skirt and a leopard-print top, approached. Upon seeing Liu Yuchuan, her eyes gleamed with a predatory glint.
Lou Lan had just reached Liu Yuchuan's side when her eyes lit up, also noticing Mo Wan, Tang Mu Xuan, Lin Fengmian, and Xie Yichang among others. Her excitement was palpable.
Feeling shy, she lowered her head and raised a hand to gently tuck her hair behind her ear, preparing to introduce herself.
"Quickly! A Yan is stirring!"
Lan Ruo Yi opened the door from inside and saw four men standing at the entrance. She was momentarily taken aback by the sight of a beautiful woman before her. However, her focus remained on A Yan, and she chose not to acknowledge the woman.
