Chapter 37: Night Visit to Yan Si
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xu Lan was unable to contact Yan Si, so she could only return to revise.
Meanwhile, at Li City Hospital.
Qi Mingyu sat in the office of the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, and many young nurses could not stop staring at him.
The top button of his shirt was unbuttoned, revealing his collarbone. It was especially alluring. His left and right arms had just been bandaged and the gauze was snow-white.
One reason he came here was to change the dressing on his wound, and the other was to question Qi Mingyue about why she had told others about him. However, he waited for a long time and still did not see her return.
“Master Qi, are you thirsty? Let me get you some water.”
.
A bold young nurse came in and asked with a smile.
Qi Mingyu glanced at her and looked away coldly.
The nurse was a little embarrassed, but she still picked up a clean glass of water and brought it over.
“Doctor Qi’s surgery is very important, so we’ll probably have to wait another hour.”
Qi Mingyu hummed in response.
After waiting for about half an hour, Qi Mingyue came back in her white coat.
When she saw her brother, she was stunned for a moment before she pretended that nothing had happened and went in.
“Why are you here?”
Qi Mingyue poured herself a cup of water. When she turned around, she saw the bandage on Qi Mingyu’s left arm.
Suddenly, she recalled Xu Lan’s doubts that day.
She drank two mouthfuls of water and had just put down the cup when she saw Qi Mingyu close the door.
She turned around and glared at him coldly.
“You told her who I am?”
Qi Mingyue looked at her brother’s face and subconsciously took a step back.
“Xu Lan is my best friend. She found out that you had used a gun, so I didn’t hide it from her.”
“She’s just a little girl, much younger than you. How did you two meet?”
Qi Mingyu suddenly raised his voice and placed his palm on the cabinet Qi Mingyue was leaning against. She shivered in fear.
Qi Mingyue had been a little afraid of her brother since she was young. Even though she had become the most authoritative cardiologist, she was still fearful and yet eager to approach him.
“We used to be online friends. Later on, I went overseas with the rescue team and was accidentally saved by her. That’s how we became friends.”
By the end of her sentence, she was completely silent. Her head hung low.
Qi Mingyu looked at her for a long time before turning around and saying fiercely, “She’s the first and last person to know about my involvement with Lone Wolf.”
Then, he opened the office door and left.
Qi Mingyue slowly raised her head and let out a long sigh of relief.
She knew that Xu Lan was about to take her college entrance examination, so she did not dare to disturb her.
However, because of Sang Ye’s words and the fact that she could not get through to Yan Si’s phone, Xu Lan left school during the nighttime self-study.
At 10 o’clock in the evening, she stood outside the villa and looked at the darkness quietly.
Usually, at this time of day, the villa was brightly lit and Yan Si was working in the study.
At the thought of this, Xu Lan went around the wall of the villa and climbed over the wall to enter the courtyard.
The surroundings were silent and revealed a trace of strangeness.
She walked along the outer wall of the villa for a long time, but she could not find the best place to climb up to the second floor. She had no choice but to walk forward for a while before using the drainage pipe to jump onto a room on the second floor.
Xu Lan did not turn on the lights in time. When her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she realized that it was actually the study.
She turned on the light on her phone and searched through the documents on Yan Si’s desk. She did not pay much attention to the documents, but her peripheral vision was attracted by something that looked like a luminous pearl on the bookshelf.
She switched off her phone and walked over step by step. Just as she was about to approach, the sound of the door opening came from downstairs.
Xu Lan hid behind the door subconsciously, but she did not hear anyone coming up the stairs. She guessed that it might be a servant. She glanced at the bright object, quickly went to the window, and leaped out lightly.
Little did she know that the glowing object in the dark night was exactly the same as the jade that the youth had given her.
Xu Lan ran out of the courtyard in one breath. Looking at the brightly lit first floor of the villa from afar, her heart suddenly ached.
What about him?
She really wanted to enter through the main door again and find out what was going on, but a faint voice told her that it was time to leave.
Xu Lan hailed a cab at the junction and got into the car.
“Yan Jiang, get the documents and come down. There’s no need to stay.”
“Alright, Director Yan.”
In the driver’s seat, the driver jogged into the villa.
It was pitch black inside the car, as if there was no one there.
