Chapter 1263: He Had Struck!

There wasn’t any color on her face as she lay on the white hospital bed with the blanket enveloping her body, all the way up to her chest.
Only her arm with the fluid transfusion was placed outside the blanket.
Even though the wounds on her arm were treated and dressed in white gauze, they were still subtly visible.
Qi Yan was sitting beside her bed. With his head lowered, he was typing away on his cell phone and seemed to be sending a message to someone else.
When he heard the sounds of footsteps, he lifted his head slightly and looked at them.
As his gaze landed on Nian Xiaomu’s injured shoulder, his devilish eyes flickered slightly and he took out some medicine from the medicine box beside him. Then, he walked forward and handed it to her.
“Use this and there shouldn’t be any residual effects after your wound heals.”
“…”
When Nian Xiaomu saw Qi Yan walking toward her, she thought that he was about to either scold her or beat her up.
Who knew that he merely pa.s.sed her some medicine.
He did not berate her at all.
However, Nian Xiaomu still opened her mouth and said, “I’m sorry, it was all because of me that Bengbeng…”
“It’s not your fault.” Qi Yan opened his mouth calmly and interrupted her.
With a complex look, he turned around and took a glance at Tan Bengbeng, who was lying on the hospital bed.
Tan Bengbeng had already made herself clear that she was Nian Xiaomu’s secret guard; she could live for her, and she could also die for her… This was her choice, and he was not in any position to blame Nian Xiaomu for it.
If the time had come to a standstill last night, and if Tan Bengbeng had told him personally that Nian Xiaomu wasn’t as important as him and the baby combined, he might just harbor hatred toward Nian Xiaomu.
However, when he rushed to the factory last night and watched how Tan Bengbeng pleaded with him to save the baby as she collapsed in a bloodied state in his embrace, all of the resentment in his heart disappeared.
He knew that she cared about their child, just that she had not believed his words.
If he had not lied to her incessantly prior to the incident, the situation yesterday might have been entirely different…
As such, he himself could hardly absolve himself from blame.
Furthermore, Nian Xiaomu nearly lost her life while saving her. Qi Yan was very shocked when he got wind of this news. Even though Nian Xiaomu had once mentioned that she regarded Tan Bengbeng as her family and friend, Qi Yan still did not believe her words.
However, Nian Xiaomu’s actions had definitely proved this point.
This was also the reason he could understand and sympathize more with her. Perhaps she no longer treated Nian Xiaomu as just her master, but her family member…
As Qi Yan collected his gaze, he walked to the bed and gently held onto Tan Bengbeng’s hand.
“Apart from suffering a miscarriage, she has also suffered other injuries on her body. She might not be able to regain consciousness for the time being, so you guys can come over another time again if you want to visit her.”
Yu Yuehan and Nian Xiaomu looked at each other in the eyes when they heard this. Even though Nian Xiaomu wanted to stay by Tan Bengbeng’s side, it would be a little inappropriate as Qi Yan was around.
As the two of them approached the door, Qi Yan suddenly said, “I have already sent an appointment letter to Mo Chengliang in the name of the King of Medicine of Qi Family. Once Bengbeng regains consciousness, we will pay them a visit.”
“…”
Nian Xiaomu turned around and looked at him in surprise.
Qi Yan had mentioned numerous times that he would not partic.i.p.ate in the internal affairs of the Mo Family, and even if Tan Bengbeng requested his a.s.sistance, he would only selectively help with some matters.
Why did he take the initiative to visit the Mo Family at this point in time?
Qi Yan let out a sinister laugh when he met her shocked gaze.
His mouth opened slightly and he spoke with pauses between his words.
“I want the person who laid his hands on my woman and child to pay with his life!”
