Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Butler w.a.n.g’s wife pulled over a chair and gestured for Song Qi to take a seat. She glanced at her husband and smiled. “He’s a lot better today. Also, his voice is recovering. Just this morning, he was able to say a few words. However, it is still very difficult for him to speak properly.”
“Really?” Song Qi looked surprised. “From the looks of it, Uncle w.a.n.g will recover soon.”
Butler w.a.n.g’s wife nodded and sighed. “I certainly hope so.”
“Don’t worry,” comforted Song Qi as she patted her arm.
“Uh huh. Young Mistress Qi, thank you for going out of your way to visit us at the hospital.” Butler w.a.n.g’s wife felt terribly touched.
Song Qi shook her head and glanced at Butler w.a.n.g and said, “Zhi got beaten up last night too.”
Butler w.a.n.g opened his eyes wide the moment he heard this. He was leaning against the headboard. He could not believe his ears. Butler w.a.n.g opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he could not say a single word because he was too anxious.
Butler w.a.n.g’s wife was shocked to hear this. “Did… did Young Master Song get beaten up? How could that happen?”
“His arms and legs are fractured, so his situation is quite similar to Uncle w.a.n.g,” sighed Song Qi sadly.
“Did you catch the culprit?” asked Butler w.a.n.g’s wife worriedly.
Song Qi shook her head. “Nope. He said the culprit was wearing a mask, so he did not get a good look at his face. The police couldn’t find any clues either. Judging from my brother’s injuries, it was probably the same guy who attacked Uncle w.a.n.g.”
The moment Song Qi finished her sentence, Butler w.a.n.g recalled the terrifying experience, and his eyes were instantly filled with fear. His face turned ghastly pale immediately.
Song Qi and Butler w.a.n.g’s wife continued talking without noticing the change in Butler w.a.n.g’s expression. After some time, Song Qi finally looked at Butler w.a.n.g and asked. “Uncle w.a.n.g, has your voice recovered?”
Butler w.a.n.g looked at Song Qi with his lips trembling slightly.
Butler w.a.n.g could still vividly remember how the young woman effortlessly broke Dr. Hu and his limbs. Also, she made them lose their voices with a single application of acupuncture.
He had planned on seeking revenge the moment he recovered. However, Huo Yao shockingly attacked Song Zhi even though he was her biological uncle.
Since she was capable of openly doing this, this meant she was unafraid. She had specially put on a mask before she attacked Song Zhi. It was a clear warning.
She was not trying to warn Song Zhi. Instead, the warning was intended for Dr. Hu and Butler w.a.n.g. She was warning them to shut up. Otherwise, she might just make them lose their voices for good.
Butler w.a.n.g quickly caught on to this, so he could only shake his head calmly when Song Qi asked.
He proceeded to lower his eyes and gathered his thoughts.
It was such an agony to lose his voice. He certainly did not want history to repeat itself.
He felt it was a bad idea to tell the truth now. Perhaps he should wait and see the situation for the time being.
Song Qi was completely unsuspecting and simply said disappointedly, “I get it. Uncle w.a.n.g, why don’t you get some rest. I’ll see you around.”
“Young Mistress Qi, let me walk you out.”
Butler w.a.n.g watched as his wife walked Song Qi out with fear still lingering in his eyes.
No one would have expected that a young girl barely 20 years old could be capable of fighting so well.. Even if he told them the truth, no one would believe him.
