Mu Cidian looked at her.

He looked at the sarcasm written all over Xin Zaozao’s face.

All the confidential documents that Xin Group wanted were inside this laptop, she must be so stupid to hand the laptop over to Mu Cidian.

Maybe this was a play put on by Mu Cidian and his mother.

They intentionally made her hand such an important thing over to Mu Cidian, then the mother and son planned to trick her together.

Mu Cidian also seemed reluctant to speculate on Xin Zaozao’s thoughts any longer.

Even though he had already guessed.

He said nothing, not knowing what to say.

Yin Qin said that Xin Zaozao might still like him and care about him.

He thought… the chance of that happening was almost zero.

Xin Zaozao just hated him.

Just hated him.

The reason she stayed with him today was only because of a slight guilt in her heart and her humanitarian spirit.

It had absolutely nothing to do with him.

“Since you’re awake, and you’ve recovered enough to walk, you should no longer need someone to accompany you.”

Mu Cidian looked at her as he spoke.

Xin Zaozao left these words, turned around, and left.

She left casually.

Mu Cidian watched her back.

He watched as she left so indifferently.

For a long time.

He turned and made his way back to the sickbed step by step.

He breathed faintly.

He was afraid that if he gasped too hard, he might faint.

He didn’t really want to die yet.

He was also human.

As long as a person is alive, they will have a desire to survive.

He reached out laboriously and picked up the call button.

He said, “I’m not feeling very well, can you call the doctor…”

He leaned heavily against the sickbed.

His head was heavy and his feet were light. After the anesthetic wore off, his wound was hurting. Because of the strain just now, the pain now was unbearable.

The doctor and nurse quickly walked into the ward. Seeing that Mu Cidian was already sitting at the head of the bed, they were all shocked.

“Why did you sit up all of a sudden, didn’t we say you couldn’t move? Don’t you care about your life!” The doctor scolded, “Where is the family member, where is the family member?”

Checking Mu Cidian’s body and asking at the same time.

There was no family member.

Xin Zaozao was not his family.

“Really, the wound is starting to crack.” The doctor said harshly, “Do you want to bleed heavily, do you want to die? If the wound bursts open, even an immortal can’t save you. Hurry up and push him into the operating room, let me repair the wound for him again…”

Mu Cidian was then rolled into the operating room again and was given an anesthetic.

This time without the company of a family member.

The hospital arranged a care worker for him.

The care worker was by his side all the time, occasionally calling him not to sleep.

He didn’t sleep.

He just really wanted to hear, wanted to hear, Xin Zaozao’s voice…

Xin Zaozao and Nie Feng went back to the villa.

In the car, Xin Zaozao looked at her laptop, tried several times, but obviously it wouldn’t start.

She gritted her teeth.

Thinking of the many important files in her laptop, she really wanted to kill Wan Quan at that moment.

Her eyes moved slightly as she looked at the ringing phone.

The call was from the hospital.

She hung up directly.

She felt that she had spent too much time on Mu Cidian today. By now, she felt that if he died, he would deserve it.

Next, she turned off her phone immediately.

The car stopped at the villa.

Xin Zaozao took Nie Feng and walked in.

Just as she stepped into the lobby, she saw Wan Quan who seemed to be specifically waiting for her.

Xin Zaozao’s face subtly changed. She felt that she needed to be incredibly patient to stop Nie Feng from killing Wan Quan.

Wan Quan said, “Aren’t you with my son anymore?!”

Xin Zaozao’s expression became even more unpleasant.

“Aren’t you quite cheap? No matter what my son does to you, as long as he lifts a finger, you’d come wagging your tail. Why aren’t you by his side when he needs you so much? Are you afraid that he’ll discard you after he recovers?”

“Wan Quan!” Xin Zaozao angrily called her name, “What do you mean your son? Mu Cidian has severed his mother-son relationship with you. Do you still have the gall to call him your son?!”

“Mu Cidian is my child, I gave birth to him! Even if he turns to ashes, he is still my son!”

“Humph.” Xin Zaozao gave a cold, sarcastic laugh.

“Xin Zaozao, no matter what Mu Cidian turns into, the fact he’s my son will never change. Don’t think for a second that you can control him or that just because you’re seducing him right now, he can cast me aside. You’re too naive…”

“Honestly, before today, I haven’t thought of seducing Mu Cidian. I even felt disgusted at his slightest touch. But now I have suddenly changed my mind. I want you to see how shamelessly your son will try to win my favor and how ruthlessly he will treat you because of me. Tell me, will there be such a day…”

“Xin Zaozao, you wretch! You, a woman of low birth, are just a disgrace from the start!” Wan Quan shrieked.

Anyone could tell she was on the verge of losing it.

Xin Zaozao was unflappable though, casually observing Wan Quan’s hysterical behavior as she walked by.

“Xin Zaozao!” Wan Quan screamed destructively, “My son will never have feelings for you, he will never!”

“Let’s wait and see.”

“Xin Zaozao! Dare to approach my son, I dare you, I’ll kill you!” Wan Quan roared.

She seemed to have lost her mind behind Xin Zaozao.

However, there was nothing Wan Quan could do to her.

With Nie Feng by her side, Wan Quan couldn’t even get close.

She could only choke on her own anger.

If only.

If only she would die from that anger.

That was Xin Zaozao’s wish, completely ignoring Wan Quan’s tantrum downstairs.

She was frantically throwing everything she could get her hands on from the tables and cabinets to the floor. The sound of things breaking echoed throughout the hall. Many servants hid in corners, afraid to make a sound. During these times, they were often at the receiving end of Wan Quan’s temper.

In the middle of the hall, Wan Quan raged for a long time.

After a while, it seemed she was exhausted, she collapsed heavily onto the couch. Her hair was so disheveled it was hard to look at.

The fire still burned in her chest, her body repressed, and trembled.

Her eyes filled with malevolence!

Xin Zaozao!

Xin Zaozao!

She vowed to make Xin Zaozao pay the ultimate price!

A week later.

Ji Baijian was discharged from the hospital.

The public statement was that his condition was under control, but he was still unwell and needed recuperation, meaning, he couldn’t go back to work.

Song Zhizhi accompanied Ji Baijian as he left the hospital.

She had spent the entire week in Ji Baijian’s hospital room, not going to work at the Commercial Management.

Anyway, she had just returned from Jinghe Village and felt no urgent need to report back to the Commercial Management.

With so much time on her hands, she preferred to spend more time with Ji Baijian.

Ji Baijian obviously agreed. Throughout this period, he never mentioned a single word about her going back to work.

Song Zhizhi often thought, if it weren’t for their wealth, they might end up homeless.

The two of them walked towards the hospital exit.

A crowd of reporters waited outside the hospital entrance.

It was Ji Baijian who had arranged it, otherwise, the news of his discharge would not have been announced in advance.

Ji Baijian appeared extremely weak. He was supported by Song Zhizhi. His already pale lips appeared devoid of energy, making him look like a genuine patient.

Camera flashes continuously went off in front of him.

The reporters were stimulated. “Master Ji, how are you now? We heard that your heart disease has recurred. Is it a result of the serious car accident you had previously?”

“Yes.” Song Zhizhi replied, “He had a sudden heart attack and spent 5 days in the ICU before his condition stabilised and he was moved to a general ward. Now that he is under control, the doctor said he could recuperate at home. Baijian also dislikes the smell of the hospital, so I am accompanying him home.”

“How did Master Ji suddenly have a heart attack?”

“Overwork.” Song Zhizhi had all the answers prepared, “He had been cooperating with Kostal Company recently and often worked overnight on project plans. This lack of rest and meals led to his heart attack.”

“Now that Kostal has agreed to cooperate with Jihong Group, but had to terminate due to Master Ji’s sudden illness, don’t you feel regretful?”

“I don’t really feel anything, I’m just more angry that Baijian ignored his health for work.” replied Song Zhizhi, “But Baijian does feel regretful. He worked hard on the collaboration with Kostal Company and didn’t expect to have a heart attack at such a crucial time. If it wasn’t serious, Baijian would probably have persisted until the collaboration was successful.”

The implication being Ji Baijian’s illness was indeed severe and he had no choice but to abandon the project.
