Chapter 1500: 1499 She said I am scared alone
Qin Mu accompanied his mother to the hospital, and Mother Qin, after changing clothes with the help of a nurse, went into the ward to talk to Father Qin.
Through the glass window, Qin Mu saw his mother sitting by the bedside, speaking to his father about something unknown. Suddenly, his emotions felt a bit complex.
An Lin stood quietly beside him, lost in thought about something. After a while, he withdrew his gaze and signaled An Lin to sit on the nearby bench.
After sitting on the bench, An Lin looked at Qin Mu’s cold and handsome features and asked softly, “Did you find any clues?”
She felt that Qin Mu was arranging for his father to be transferred at this time, perhaps because he had found a clue or even knew who the perpetrator might be.
“That day, Feng Wanfeng called you. What did she say?”
Qin Mu’s dark eyes looked at An Lin and instead of answering, he asked a question.
An Lin was first stunned, then unsurely asked, “Was it the day Aunt Yao came to the hospital to see Dad?”
“Yes.”
Qin Mu nodded.
“My cousin said Uncle Yao heard about Dad’s injury and was very worried, but due to his current condition, he couldn’t come to the hospital, so he asked her to come on their behalf.”
“When my cousin divorced Yao Dewei, she heard that the Yao Family gave her a large sum of alimony, not to mention a villa.”
“Ah Mu, do you suspect Dad’s injury is related to Uncle Yao?”
An Lin was not naive; Qin Mu would not suddenly care about her cousin’s affairs at such a time. His questions could only mean that all this was related to his father’s injury.
“Indeed, I suspect it relates to Yao Xinmin, but there is currently no evidence.”
Qin Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, speaking calmly, “A few days ago, Mrs. Yao came to visit my dad, and perhaps she will come again in a few days.”
But, who will come next time remains unknown.
“Ah Mu, you mean?” An Lin’s face changed slightly, her eyes looked at Qin Mu in surprise.
“Dad has already woken up, but for now this information must not be leaked,” Qin Mu said coldly, his eyes sharp.
Before his father got injured, he received a call from a number that no longer exists.
He didn’t know who the caller was…
According to the guard with him, although he didn’t hear what the caller said, his father angrily replied.
“You want me to stop investigating? Unless I die.”
“Are you going to…”
An Lin did not finish her sentence, but Qin Mu knew what she was asking, nodded, and gently reminded, “If Feng Wanfeng or her mother-in-law call you again, just say Dad’s condition is only slightly improving, the doctor said he will wake up in a few days.”
“Got it.”
An Lin pursed her lips, promising softly.
Tang Yang arrived at the hospital just at midnight, wearing a military uniform, windswept and dusty, with an aura of wilderness at the border.
“That person was born a mercenary, a professional assassin. The latest information has tracked the large sum in his account, transferred from South Africa.”
Tang Yang briefly conveyed the currently known clues to Qin Mu.
After speaking, he glanced at An Lin beside him, hesitated for two seconds, and asked, “An Lin, have you had any contact with Wan Feng in the past few days?”
He referred to Feng Wanfeng, An Lin’s cousin, the daughter-in-law of the Yao Family.
“My cousin called me a few days ago.”
“Did she mention Yao Dewei to you?”
Tang Yang’s question had a certain hesitance, his tone somewhat stiff. When Feng Wanfeng divorced Yao Dewei, he thought it was a good thing that she could stay uninvolved with the Yao Family.
Before the Spring Festival, Father Qin received a secret order to investigate Yao Xinmin.
“She mentioned briefly that although Yao Dewei divorced her, he was not unkind to her. She was on vacation at the time, so she asked her mother-in-law to come to the hospital.”
There was a knock at the door outside, and Qing Feng entered, “Young Master Qin, Doctor Gu asked me to tell you that we are now preparing to go to the airport.”
“Okay, where is Ah Kai?”
Qin Mu got up and walked to the door.
“Doctor Gu is on the other side of the ward.”
Mo Xiuchen also came to A City; at one in the morning, Qin Mu, his mother, An Lin, and others together saw off Father Qin.
The intensive care unit where Father Qin was originally staying was assigned to someone else.
G City
A little past three in the morning, Gu Yan was still in the hospital office.
When the phone rang, the tired look between his brows instantly vanished. He got up, walked out of the office, and took the elevator downstairs.
A few minutes later, an ambulance stopped at the hospital entrance, and Gu Yan, with medical staff waiting there, immediately greeted it.
“Is the situation stable?”
Gu Kai nodded, “Everything is normal.”
“Mo Xiuchen, you don’t need to follow us inside. You should go home first,” Gu Yan advised Mo Xiuchen once he got out of the car since he couldn’t be of help at the hospital.
“Alright.” Mo Xiuchen didn’t insist, and Little Liu had been waiting in the car by the roadside for a long time.
After Mo Xiuchen left, Gu Yan and Gu Kai, the father and son, conducted a detailed examination again for Father Qin, and Gu Yan asked Gu Kai to go home to rest.
“Dad, I’ll go back when it’s daylight.”
Gu Yan looked at the time; it was already four o’clock, “It’s almost daylight. Everything is arranged here. Go home quickly; you haven’t been home these days, and Tongtong misses you very much, thinking of you every day.”
“Then I’ll go home and sleep for a bit before coming back in the morning.”
Gu Kai hesitated, thinking of Bai Yiyi and Tongtong—the two of them, big and small—his desire to return home suddenly became urgent.
Having not been home for a few days, Gu Kai felt warm and softened in his heart as soon as he entered the living room. He hurried upstairs, first going to the children’s room to check on Tongtong.
Opening the door, the bed in the children’s room was empty. He smiled and returned to the master bedroom.
Sure enough, Tongtong was sleeping sweetly, embracing Bai Yiyi like an octopus.
Bai Yiyi was sleeping sideways facing out, while Tongtong had her little leg raised high, pressing against Bai Yiyi, with one arm around her waist and the other holding onto her shoulder.
Her lips were also turned up with a satisfied smile.
Gu Kai couldn’t help but laugh, took out his phone to take a photo of them before moving to the bedside.
After a moment’s hesitation, he bent down and gently freed Tongtong’s arm and leg from Bai Yiyi, but before he could lift her, Bai Yiyi woke up from her sleep.
Opening her eyes and seeing him by the bedside, her eyes flashed with joy, “Ah Kai, you’re back.”
Gu Kai smiled softly and, lowering his voice, said, “Sleep, I’ll take Tongtong back to her room.”
“Let her sleep here. She said while you weren’t home, I was afraid being alone, so she kept me company.” Bai Yiyi spoke with tenderness and motherly love, with her brows and eyes full of warmth under the soft crystal lamp light, unspeakably gentle and charming.
Gu Kai’s gaze fell on her chest, feeling a dryness in his mouth. The next moment, he leaned in, with his lips close to her ear, his voice hoarse, “I’m back now, so Tongtong’s mission is complete.”
Being so close, not only did his breath spray on her earlobe but his thin lips also touched the sensitive skin of her ear lobe, making Bai Yiyi shudder suddenly, and her originally fair earlobe blushed instantly.
