City G, two o'clock in the afternoon.
After several days of poor rest, Xu Youning was on the verge of collapse. She finally got an hour's lunch break at noon and fell asleep almost instantly.
But not long after she fell asleep, she suddenly woke up.
Her fear nerves seemed to be hit hard by something. An unreasonable panic swept through every cell in her body. She covered her heart and suddenly felt out of breath.
Her intuition told her that something was going on, but rationally she hoped it was just her imagination.
"The past has been getting better and better, and the future will be decided later..."
Xu Youning's favorite song "Occasionally Showers" rang out. It took her two seconds to realize that it was the ringtone of her cell phone. She grabbed the phone and answered the call. A male voice penetrated her eardrum: "I am Shen Yuechuan, Si Jue is injured. .”
In her impression, Shen Yuechuan always had a cynical look, and his tone of voice had a signature romantic frivolity, but at this moment, he solemnly and coldly told her that Mu Sijue was injured.
Xu Youning felt as if someone had grabbed his heart, and he stood up: "How did you get injured? Is it serious?"
"The gunshot wound was right in the heart. The doctor said it's not optimistic." Shen Yuechuan's voice was lower than ever before, "You Ning, you'd better come here."
Xu Youning's mind went blank for two seconds. She had no time to explain anything or pack anything. She rushed out of the office and asked Aguang to take her to the airport.
On the way, she explained some things to A Guang and bought the nearest flight ticket to Mexico. Before going through the security check, she told A Guang: "Remember, don't tell anyone about Brother Qi's injury, so as not to cause internal chaos."
Aguang nodded: "Sister Youning, you can go without worry and take good care of Brother Qi. I will take care of everything here."
Xu Youning thought for a while and then said: "If there is something urgent and you can't contact us, you can contact Mr. Lu directly."
A Guang nodded: "Brother Qi told me the same thing before he left. I know what to do."
Only then did Xu Youning go through the security check with confidence and board the plane to Mexico.
The plane was transiting in Vancouver, and during the layover, Xu Youning called Shen Yuechuan and asked about Mu Sijue's situation.
"The operation is not over yet, and we don't know the situation yet." Shen Yuechuan's solemn voice conveyed a bleak message, "Tell me your flight number, and I can arrange for someone to pick you up at the airport."
Xu Youning said the flight number and boarded the plane again.
At this time, it was the morning in Vancouver time, and the flight attendant thoughtfully brought breakfast, which was milk, bread, and a small fruit plate.
Xu Youning had no appetite. He took two bites of bread and drank milk to provide basic physical needs. He put on a blindfold and wanted to rest.
But as soon as he lay down, Shen Yuechuan's voice sounded in his ears: "The gunshot wound was right in the heart. The doctor said it's not optimistic."
Mu Sijue, how should I put it, is like an indestructible person, always full of energy. Xu Youning never thought that he would be injured, let alone could not imagine him being seriously injured.
There are many people in Mexico who want to curry favor with him. As for those who dare to kill him, they probably haven't dared to reincarnate yet. The person who attacks him this time is probably Kang Ruicheng again.
However, after winning the cooperation, shouldn't Kangruicheng be busy launching cooperation? Why did you deal with Musijue first instead
Seeing Xu Youning lying there motionless, the stewardess thought she was asleep and signaled others not to disturb her, but she didn't know that her head was clearer than ever at this moment.
Five hours later, the plane landed at the Mexico City Airport. Xu Youning had no luggage. As soon as she got off the plane, she walked to the exit. From a distance, she saw a young man standing at the pick-up gate holding a sign with her name on it. Shake the sign in your hand.
She walked over and patted the man: "I am Xu Youning."
"Hello." The man smiled at her, "My name is Xiaojie, and Brother Koshikawa asked me to pick you up."
"Take me to the hospital." Xu Youning walked out of the airport quickly and asked, "Is Brother Qi's surgery over?"
"It's over, but I don't know the specific situation." Xiaojie smiled apologetically, "Brother Koshikawa just asked me to pick you up and take you to the hospital. He didn't tell me much else."
Xu Youning nodded, "Please drive faster."
The off-road vehicle with good performance drove on the road for nearly an hour and finally stopped in front of a hospital for the dead. Xu Youning quickly found Mu Sijue's ward.
There were five men standing outside the ward who were about the same age as Xiaojie. Their casual clothes could not hide their strong figures. Just from their physiques, it could be seen that all of them were good fighters. It should have been arranged by Shen Yuechuan to protect Mu Si. Lord's.
The leading man pushed open the ward door for Xu Youning: "Miss Xu, Mr. Shen wants you to go in directly."
Passing through the living room, Xu Youning saw Mu Sijue lying on the hospital bed at a glance.
He was wearing a striped hospital gown, his eyes were tightly closed, and his eyebrows were slightly twisted. He was not angry or arrogant even in his sleep, which was scary.
Even if he is injured, he is still the same Musik.
Shen Yuechuan calmly paid attention to every detail of Xu Youning's expression, and saw genuine worry in her eyes, just like Su Jianan's expression when she heard something happened to Lu Boyan.
If Xu Youning does not really care about Mu Sijue, then Shen Yuechuan can only say that this acting skills completely surpassed the former popular superstar Han Ruoxi.
"How is he doing?" After speaking, Xu Youning realized that his voice was hoarse, probably related to the lack of rest during the long-distance flight.
Shen Yuechuan said: "Although the operation did not go well, he is still alive and did not die on the operating table. He is out of danger, but this time it will take a longer time to recover."
Xu Youning's high-pitched heart finally fell back to where it was before, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
As long as Musijue is alive, everything will be fine.
Shen Yuechuan came up half teasingly and half inquiringly: "Xiao Youning, are you worried about your seventh brother?"
Xu Youning avoided Shen Yuechuan's gaze: "Of course, if he collapses without explaining anything, I will be in big trouble."
Shen Yuechuan smiled: "Don't worry too much, he won't fall that easily."
Xu Youning did not hear the other layer of meaning in Shen Yuechuan's words, but he felt that Shen Yuechuan's determination was not unreasonable - the man on the hospital bed was Mu Sijue, the seventh brother who was making waves in G city, how could he fall down so easily?
Thinking about it, Xu Youning put his fingertips on Mu Sijue's eyebrows, trying to smooth out the word "Chuan".
"He has been like this many years ago." Shen Yuechuan said, "When he is asleep, he seems to be thinking about things, always frowning. Their Aunt Zhou said that when he was young, he was like a little old man."
"But..." Xu Youning hesitated.
But what she saw was obviously not like this.
That morning she woke up at Musijue's house. Musijue's hands and feet were pressing on her, like a rogue, with a relaxed look on his face, not at all as sharp and cold as usual.
Or is he only able to relax in his apartment
"But what?" Shen Yuechuan asked Xu Youning.
It was impossible for Xu Youning to tell the truth, so he asked a casual question: "Why did he become like this?"
"He started taking over the family business very early." Shen Yuechuan said, "He has experienced assassinations and kidnappings like last night countless times since he was a child. His life is always in danger, and he has to beware of those around him. Human beings probably cannot let down their guard until the last moment of their lives.”
"..." Xu Youning said nothing, because he was the person around Mu Sijue who needed to be wary. Perhaps because of this "self-knowledge", she forgot to pay attention to whether there was any deep meaning in Shen Yuechuan's words.
Shen Yuechuan stretched out: "Since you are here, I will withdraw. I haven't slept all night, and I'm so sleepy."
After saying that, he really left, without any worry about what Xu Youning would do to Mu Sijue, because he was sure that Xu Youning would not attack Mu Sijue.
Xu Youning pulled a stool and sat in front of the hospital bed. He took out his mobile phone from his bag and turned it on. It showed an unread text message from Kang Ruicheng.
—Mu Sijue asked for less than 110,000 yuan, and we lost this opportunity.
Xu Youning exploded, how could it be possible? Mu Sijue clearly told her that he would quote a price of 120,000 yuan, but how come the price was less than 110,000 yuan
what happened
Did Mu Sijue change his mind temporarily, or...deliberately give her false news
If it was the latter possibility... Xu Youning didn't dare to imagine it anymore.
Just when Xu Youning was confused, Mu Sijue on the hospital bed opened his eyes.
During this sleep, he felt like he had slept for a long time, wandering in front of the gate of hell for a while, but in the end, he survived, otherwise how could he see Xu Youning
In the haze, Mu Sijue didn't know if it was his imagination. He seemed to see a look of surprise and uncertainty on Xu Youning's face, and... worry.
Is she worried about him
When Mu Sijue's vision slowly returned to clarity, Xu Youning also found that he was awake. He felt happy and hurriedly rang the nurse bell to call the doctor, but Mu Sijue grabbed his hand.
"Let go." At this time, Xu Youning no longer cared about why Mu Sijue had temporarily lowered the price. He just wanted to make sure that he was fine, "I want to call the doctor to come in and check you."
Mu Sijue frowned: "If you want to see how I kicked the doctor out, you can just call them over."
Xu Youning: "..." This is the first time she has seen such an arrogant patient.
She didn't doubt that Mu Sijue meant what he said, so she withdrew her hand. Even if she didn't call the doctor, the nurse would find him awake during the rounds.
The expression on Musijue's face softened a little: "Pour me a glass of water."
Xu Youning poured a cup of warm water and brought the cup to Mu Sijue's lips. Mu Sijue lowered his head slightly. When he was about to drink, Xu Youning suddenly remembered something and stuffed the quilt into Mu Sijue's arms: "Your hands You’re not hurt, just hold it yourself!”
"Xu Youning." Mu Sijue slowly raised his head and stared at Xu Youning coldly, "I haven't dealt with you for too long, haven't I?"
"Does it matter whether it is or not?" Xu Youning deliberately prolonged the ending of each word, "You can't deal with me now anyway!" Yes, she only dared to act arrogantly because of Mu Sijue's injury.
Unexpectedly, Musijue was not angry.
He asked Xu Youning playfully: "How long have you been following me?"
Xu Youning counted the time: "It's been almost a year."
"It's been almost a year and I still don't understand your boss's style." Mu Sijue said slowly, "Xu Youning, I don't think your life will be easy in the future."
after…
What Xu Youning is most afraid of now is the future.
She changed the subject abruptly in the name of haha: "Brother Qi, aren't you curious why I appear here?"
After hearing Mu Sijue's answer, Xu Youning wished she could turn back time for half a minute. Even if she bit her tongue, she would not ask this question. (To be continued)
