Yun Bixue fidgeted with her fingers and asked unabashedly, “Didn’t Old Master Duan say that Shanhua Hospital is better? Shall we go there instead?”
Yun Bixue thought that Xie Limo must have already found out that she merely wanted to visit Bai Yaoyao at the hospital.
Seeing how nervous she looked, Xie Limo said, “Okay.”
Hearing his reply, Yun Bixue felt much better. “Shall we go now then?”
Xie Limo shook his head resignedly. “Do you feel energetic now? You looked so lethargic.”
“Well, I’m just concerned about my health.”
Looking at how Yun Bixue avoided his eyes, Xie Limo chuckled to himself and didn’t expose her.
…
Shanhua Hospital
In the VIP suite, Duan Yanhao didn’t sleep at all the previous night. The moment he shut his eyes, all that appeared in his mind was Bai Yaoyao. Recalling how they got to know each other and everything that they’ve been through, his heart started to warm up. It was as though the sun was s.h.i.+ning right at him.
However, she was unconscious now, and he had no idea when she would wake up. Duan Yanhao felt that his heart was utterly empty.
Memories flashed through his head, including those moments of life and death on the battlefield.
Back then, the only person that he couldn’t let go was Bai Yaoyao. Even now, she was the only person on his mind.
Therefore, he knew that he would never be able to forget her. He simply wanted to make Bai Yaoyao happy.
That night, Duan Yanhao’s eyes were reddened due to lack of sleep. But still, he insisted on staying by her side, refusing to let anyone take him away.
When one of his subordinates reported to him, he couldn’t help but feel shocked to see the President in this state. This was the first time the President looked so forlorn.
“You’re here.” When he stepped in, Duan Yanhao had already noticed him.
“Yes, Young Master Duan. I’ve removed all the related news online and stopped all comments from coming in. The owner of the website has also been arrested, and the site has been closed.”
“Okay.”
“Young Master Duan, although there is nothing much online anymore, the rumors are still spreading. Everyone knows about it now.”
Duan Yanhao’s expression was ice-cold. His grip on the handles of his chair tightened as he replied, “Don’t do anything for now. Just keep an eye on the website and all the news companies. Stop them from spreading any more rumors. Things are still relatively contained now.”
“But if Miss Bai is unconscious, the wedding cannot proceed as planned. Old Master has suggested announcing the postponement of the wedding.”
Duan Yanhao pursed his lips. With a blank, dark look in his eyes, he answered, “We won’t announce it.”
“Then Miss Bai…”
“I believe she will wake up.”
Wen Ye listened to Young Master Duan’s words and knew that it would be impossible to change his mind.
“Have you investigated the Chi family?”
“Yes, sir. Here’s the doc.u.ments.”
Duan Yanhao received the doc.u.ments and started to flip through them. As he studied them, he grew so livid that his hands started to shake. The Chi family was truly bold. They had already tried to slowly take charge of the Duan family since a long time ago.
In particular, He Meichun had indeed already executed her grand plans stealthily. Otherwise, Chi Jiaojiao wouldn’t have joined the military and sacrificed her life during a mission too. The Chi family wouldn’t have been able to reap so many benefits from the Duan family.
Duan Yanhao tightened his grip all of a sudden, and the handle snapped under the strength of his left hand.
As Wen Ye watched it happen, he also jumped in shock. He had never seen Young Master Duan so infuriated before.
Duan Yanhao raised his head and looked at Bai Yaoyao. His face softened, but he blamed himself deep down. He shouldn’t have lost his temper here.
After quelling the anger inside him, Duan Yanhao looked yearningly at Bai Yaoyao again and left the ward with Wen Ye.
Duan Yanhao instructed in a cold voice, “Exaggerate what He Meichun and Chi Jiajia had done and post everything online. Engage a group of people to make nasty comments too.”
