Tangning could sense that, even though the weather wasn't too hot, Mo Ting's body was covered in a thin layer of cold sweat.
He was afraid.
When this man stood in front of everyone, he was indomitable and merciless. No one had ever been afraid of him. But, at this moment, he was truly afraid.
"I'm fine, I'm really fine." Tangning couldn't care less about her fear. She simply wanted to comfort this man first; she couldn't bear to see him so worried.
However, Mo Ting refused to let go. It wasn't until a long time later that Tangning's hands were numb that he finally let go.
"Let's go check on Lin Qian and Xu Xin first."
Just as Tangning was about to check on their injuries, Mo Ting stopped her, "Lu Che has already gone to check on them."
However, this time, it seemed, Xu Xin was the one who was hurt …
…
The next morning, at the Quan Family Villa.
After an entire night, Tangning's car accident was already spreading like wildfire. Even though, if it was a normal day, Quan Ziye wouldn't have cared. After all, he didn't care who was on the headlines that day. But, the old housekeeper found a video and handed it to Quan Ziye.
"Young Master … have a look at this."
Quan Ziye lazily opened his eyes. His gaze was flirtatious like a cat that had just woken up.
"What nonsense is this?" Quan Ziye received the phone and opened the video. After watching it for two minutes, he sat up straight on the sofa, "So, she went to work as Tangning's assistant. No wonder I couldn't find her anywhere in Beijing."
"Did you call the hospital to confirm it?"
"Yes, Young Master," the housekeeper nodded his head in seriousness. "Luckily, the Second Miss only suffered a minor injury."
After hearing this, Quan Ziye let out a gentle laugh, "She hid from me to this extent, but what's the point? She's still going to be found in the end. "
"What do you plan to do, Young Master?"
"To the hospital," Quan Ziye said before he stood up from the sofa and grabbed the keys to his Maserati from the coffee table.
After putting on his sunglasses, Quan Ziye hopped into his car. He did not say a word, but in his heart, he was praying, 'Lin Qian, continue to run.'
Unlike Tangning, Lin Qian didn't injure her arm. Instead, she hit her head. Although her head was fine after an examination, she was still unconscious for the entire night. She only opened her eyes the next morning.
Lu Che was standing by Lin Qian's bedside. As soon as she woke up, he handed her a glass of water, "Are you OK?"
Lin Qian nodded her head. It seemed, after sleeping all night, she couldn't make a sound.
"That's good.
"Ning Jie? And that crazy woman … "
"They 'OK. Lu Che replied. "The Madam only suffered some minor injuries. As for that crazy woman, she's probably in trouble." Lu Che shrugged.
Lin Qian closed her eyes again. Just as she was about to rest, a man wearing sunglasses suddenly entered the room. Lu Che immediately asked, "Sir, you seem to have entered the wrong room."
Quan, Quan't't Quan,'t Ting, Quan 'Quan Quan Quan to Quan.
As soon as Lu Che saw that it was Quan Ziye, he immediately understood. So, he glanced at Lin Qian and walked out of the room, leaving the siblings alone.
Quan Ziye immediately closed the door and locked it. He then walked over to Lin Qian and sat down on the chair in front of the bed, "You seem to be having fun hiding from me."
Lin Qian closed her eyes, not wanting to say a word.
"Lin Qian, I think I've used the wrong strategy against you. That's why you've hurt me for so many years," Quan Ziye wasn't angry. But, his smile didn't seem innocent.
Lin Qian opened her eyes and stared at Quan Ziye, "What do you want to do?"
"After you leave the hospital, move into my apartment and live with me. That's right, we're living together!" Quan Ziye said as he pulled out his phone. "Otherwise, I'm going to call my mother right now and tell her about our relationship."
"You're going to kill your mother."
"It doesn't matter. I'm just that selfish," Quan Ziye replied smoothly.
"You're crazy."
"I was forced by you."
"You're still forcing me to my death," Lin Qian said as she looked at Quan Ziye with determination. "It's good to be Tangning's assistant. Plus, I don't want to live with you. I won't be threatened by anyone."
Quan Ziye looked at Lin Qian and felt as if his heart had been stabbed, "After all these years, you're still as difficult to deal with as before."
"You should've known this a long time ago," Lin Qian replied straightforwardly.
"Aren't you afraid that you'll force me to my death?" Quan Ziye suddenly laughed. "After all, if I die, you guys won't have to suffer anymore. What do you think?"
"You don't have to die. All you have to do is stop clinging to me."
Obviously, their relationship was still as stiff as it had always been and there was no chance of any progress. Otherwise, wouldn't all the pain they'd endured over the years have been for nothing?
Tangning stood outside the door and watched everything that was happening. But, it seemed, Quan Ziye couldn't do anything to Lin Qian.
In the end, she turned around and headed over to Xu Xin's room. As soon as she saw Xu Xin sitting expressionlessly in bed, she approached her and looked at her.
"You're lucky you didn't die from the crash," Xu Xin lifted her head and smiled mockingly when she saw that Tangning was fine.
"There's no need for you to do that," Tangning said coldly. "You threw away your bright future and insisted on taking a gamble …"
"That's right, I was taking a gamble. What's wrong with that?" Xu Xin laughed. "After all, I'll be spending the rest of my life in prison. Are you happy now?"
"You asked for it." After speaking, Tangning turned around to leave Xu Xin's room. But, she suddenly heard Xu Xin's voice behind her.
"Tangning, you've always been good at cleaning up the stains on your body, right? But, there are some stains that you can never get rid of. "
Tangning didn't understand what Xu Xin meant, and Xu Xin didn't understand either.
She had already hit someone with her car, so how could she regret it?
"I'm actually quite curious as to what I've done to piss you off," Tangning asked without turning around. Tangning did not turn around. She simply asked, "For you to sacrifice yourself like this and risk your life for it."
"You should know better."
With this answer, Tangning turned around and left.
How could she know better?
Meanwhile, Xu Xin revealed a mocking smile. She was determined to destroy Tangning.
After visiting the two women, Tangning returned to her room to find Lu Che reporting something to Mo Ting.
"Madam, I've found something."
"What did you find?" Tangning approached curiously. Lu Che handed her a piece of information. "It turns out, this Xu Xin suffers from bipolar disorder. She's mentally ill."
Tangning furrowed her brows. Just as she was about to speak, a nurse suddenly knocked on the door and said, "Miss Xu has committed suicide."
