Wei Zimu looked at Yu Qian hesitantly. He had never heard of Yu Qian being related to the royal family of England.
“Go out first. I want to be alone.” Regardless of whether Wei Zimu believed it or not, Yu Qian could not be bothered to explain.
He waved his hand. In the end, Wei Zimu swallowed all the questions he wanted to ask and left the room.
——
In Country F, at the edge of a certain desert.
Stone carried a bag of water in his arms and rushed towards the house not far away.
There were many people in the room, and everyone’s expressions were very solemn.
On the bed in the middle lay a pale patient. It was Lin Yi.
Looking at the weak Lin Yi, Xia Yu frowned. “Is there no other way?”
The doctor beside him shook his head. “There’s probably nothing we can do here. Why don’t you send her back to Beijing and try? There are more medical teams and more advanced medical equipment there.”
Lin Yi was infected with a strange virus, and there was no way to find out what it was.
“Okay.” Xia Yu took a handkerchief from the side and wiped the sweat off Lin Yi’s face. “Then bring her back to China for treatment.”
After the doctor left the room, Xia Yu’s teammate walked over and patted Xia Yu’s shoulder. “Don’t feel guilty. In that situation, you couldn’t save her.”
“But.” Xia Yu lowered his head. “If I hadn’t insisted on going back and snatching that pile of documents, she wouldn’t have become like this because she blocked a bullet for me.”
A few days ago, Xia Yu and his teammates were on a mission in the desert. On the way, they met some secret personnel from China in Continent F. They had survived the flames of war and obtained a lot of confidential information for China.
Just as they were handing over, someone leaked the news from somewhere and quickly surrounded them. Originally, Xia Yu and the rest were about to successfully evacuate, but Xia Yu suddenly remembered that there were still some documents under the bed in the room. Those documents could not fall into the hands of others.
Hence, Xia Yu let his teammates leave first while he entered the room and burned the documents. When he came out again, he bumped into the enemy’s encirclement.
Under his various dodges, he was still outnumbered. Just as he was about to fall into the enemy’s hands, Lin Yi appeared out of nowhere and blocked a bullet for him.
At this moment, his teammates came to support him. Xia Yu and the rest hurriedly left with Lin Yi.
From that day onwards, Lin Yi fell into a long-term high fever, and the immune system in her body was slowly disintegrating.
The doctor diagnosed it because she was infected with some virus, but he could not find out what virus it was.
On the bed, Lin Yi suddenly moved and mumbled a few words. Xia Yu leaned over and heard intermittently, “Xia Yu, run.”
Looking at Lin Yi’s pale side profile, Xia Yu’s eyes darkened. He took a handkerchief and gently wiped Lin Yi’s sweat. “I’m very good. I’ll bring you back to Beijing for treatment immediately.”
Soon, Jun Shiling, who was preparing to attend the banquet in England, received a call from Xia Yu. After hearing him explain the situation, Jun Shiling immediately got someone to arrange a plane to pick Xia Yu and Lin Yi back to China.
Xia Wanyuan had already changed and walked over. “What’s wrong? Did something happen to Xia Yu?”
“Xia Yu is fine.” Jun Shiling tugged at his tie. “He said that Lin Yi has some illness that can’t be investigated. I’ve already sent someone to pick them up and bring them back to China.”
“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan originally wanted to call Xia Yu and ask, but thinking that he was probably not in the mood to answer the phone now, she could only give up.
Seeing that it was half-past four in the evening, there was still half an hour left until five. Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan set off from the hotel.
Half an hour later, at the entrance of the palace.
Not only did Xia Wanyuan successfully meet the Deputy Head and the rest, but she also met a few unexpected people.
“Sister Wanyuan.” Wei Zimu was still as warm as ever. He walked forward and smiled at Xia Wanyuan.
“Why are you here?”
“He came with me.” Not far away, Yu Qian slowly walked over with a smile that made one feel no warmth. “Long time no see, Professor Xia, CEO Jun.”
Seeing Yu Qian, Jun Shiling subconsciously stood in front of Xia Wanyuan. “Hello.”
Looking at Jun Shiling block Xia Wanyuan, Yu Qian smiled. “CEO Jun really loves his wife like his life. You’re so protective of Professor Xia. With so many people here, what can I do to Professor Xia?”
Jun Shiling did not answer Yu Qian. Instead, he turned to look at Xia Wanyuan. “Let’s go in.”
“Okay.”
Xia Wanyuan held Jun Shiling’s arm and glanced at Wei Zimu. She nodded at him before walking in.
After taking a few steps, an extremely familiar figure walked over.
His blue eyes were as before, but the current An Luo had a calmer expression than the innocent and pure expression from a while ago.
Seeing Xia Wanyuan, An Luo did not greet her awkwardly like before. Instead, he nodded politely at Xia Wanyuan, then reached out to Jun Shiling like An Lin back then. “CEO Jun.”
Although An Luo was young, everyone knew that An Lin intended to hand the entire Cape family to An Luo. Jun Shiling reached out and shook his hand.
Then, An Luo brought people straight to the palace and ignored the others.
Looking at An Luo’s back, Xia Wanyuan’s heart ached. She tugged at Jun Shiling’s sleeve. “An Lin?”
Jun Shiling pursed his lips and did not answer, but Xia Wanyuan already understood what he meant.
Xia Wanyuan sighed softly in her heart. The world was unpredictable. Who would have thought that the child who was still acting coquettishly in his brother’s arms would grow up to become the person who carried the heavy burden of the Cape family in such a short time?
The others began to walk in, and Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan walked into the palace together.
When she walked to the door for a safety check, Jun Shiling went over, but Xia Wanyuan was stopped outside.
“I’m sorry, Madam. Do you have any prohibited items on you? Our detection equipment is ringing.” The tall staff looked down at Xia Wanyuan.
“No.” Xia Wanyuan frowned slightly.
“I’m sorry, this is the palace. Nothing dangerous is allowed to enter.” The staff sized Xia Wanyuan up. “Can you allow us to search you?”
In a car not far away, Li Qingxue sat beside Earl Dray and was a little worried. “Father, will this make Jun Shiling angry?”
Earl Dray knew the way of power. “How is that possible? How can Jun Shiling embarrass himself in front of the world for a woman?”
