When Jun Shiling returned, it was already three hours later.
Young Master, you’re finally back.” Seeing Jun Shiling enter with a cold expression, Uncle Wang hurriedly welcomed him.
“What’s wrong?” The corners of Jun Shiling’s clothes were a little messy. When he entered, he was naturally covered in the moisture outside the door and a faint smell of blood.
“Madam woke up an hour ago, but she said she’s not hungry and doesn’t want to eat.”
“Bring me a shirt. I’ll go and shower first,” Jun Shiling said and walked to the bathroom on the first floor.
Jun Shiling quickly rinsed himself. When there was no additional smell on him, he took the food from the kitchen and walked upstairs.
Afraid that she would infect Xiao Bao, Xia Wanyuan did not let Xiao Bao stay for long and got the servants to bring him away.
At that moment, Xia Wanyuan was nestled under the blanket, flipping through the book by the pillow with her two little hands. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xia Wanyuan raised her head to take a look before shrinking back into the blanket.
There was a hint of bitterness in his eyes.
Sick people were more fragile mentally. Xia Wanyuan felt a little aggrieved that she did not see Jun Shiling when she woke up.
Seeing Xia Wanyuan’s expression, the ice in Jun Shiling’s eyes shattered, and the coldness in him dissipated. Jun Shiling brought the food to the bed, then wrapped Xia Wanyuan with the blanket and carried her up.
“I just went to investigate who the mastermind was. I was delayed. I’m sorry,” Jun Shiling said as he reached out to touch Xia Wanyuan’s forehead. It was still a little hot. “Eat something first.”
Jun Shiling scooped some porridge with a spoon and fed Xia Wanyuan bit by bit.
After she was full, Jun Shiling lifted the blanket and fell asleep himself.
“Who wanted to catch me today?”
“It’s someone from Continent M. The exact reason is still being investigated.” Jun Shiling patted Xia Wanyuan’s head. “I’ll send more people to secretly protect you in the future.”
Xia Wanyuan had a feeling that Jun Shiling had already found out the specific reason, but he did not say it.
Although Jun Shiling had deliberately restrained his aura when he entered, Xia Wanyuan could still feel the anger in his heart. If he had not found out something, Jun Shiling would not be so angry.
However, since Jun Shiling did not plan to tell her, she did not probe further.
Leaning into Jun Shiling’s arms, Xia Wanyuan gradually fell asleep.
At the same time, in Nightless City…
“You promised me that you wouldn’t touch her!!” There was anger in Wei Zimu’s usually gentle tone.
He had just arrived at the international airport when he heard the news of Xia Wanyuan being attacked. The first thing Wei Zimu thought of was that Yu Qian had done it.
Yu Qian did not panic at all when Wei Zimu grabbed his collar. He quietly admired Wei Zimu’s angry expression.
“Brother, I’ve never seen you so angry.”
“I won’t go to Continent M anymore,” Wei Zimu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
Yu Qian smiled and pushed Wei Zimu’s hand away. “If I wanted to do something, do you think I would use such a cheap method?”
Wei Zimu was stunned.
That’s right, hijacking was not Yu Qian’s style. He was a true devil. If he wanted to touch someone, he would definitely not use this method.
This method was too slow for him.
“Then who else?”
“I can only say that, Brother, the power behind this woman you like is more complicated than you think. Why do you need to worry about her?”
Wei Zimu looked at Yu Qian in silence and said, “I promised to help you. Promise me that you won’t touch her.”
“Of course, Brother. I keep my promise.” Yu Qian nodded with a smile, but that smile did not reach his eyes.
After Yu Qian left, Wei Zimu sat on the chair for a long time.
After a while, he took out a colorful clay doll from his pocket. The little child he had saved in Continent F had taught him to make it.
The clay doll was lifelike and looked like Xia Wanyuan.
Wei Zimu placed the doll in his palm and seemed to see Xia Wanyuan smiling playfully at him. A hint of gentleness appeared in Wei Zimu’s eyes.
There was something wrong with what Yu Qian said.
Xia Wanyuan was not the woman he liked.
Xia Wanyuan was just someone he wanted to protect.
In Continent M, in the brightly lit hall, everyone’s hearts turned cold.
Even though a man in a wheelchair was sitting in a high position, he could not help but make people respect him.
Because he was sick, it had been a long time since Mr. Blue had gathered people for a meeting on such a large scale. Now that he suddenly asked everyone to come, everyone was flustered.
Blue blew at the tea leaves in his cup and scanned the people in the hall. A few of them could not hold on anymore and were trembling.
“Do you need me to name names?” Blue drank a mouthful of hot tea and suddenly asked.
Before anyone knew what was happening, two people had already rolled to the ground beside them. Large beads of sweat were on their heads.
“Since you like to probe me, follow me to Iron Heart Island. I can tell you slowly,” Blue said slowly.
A few guards suddenly appeared and took the person who had rolled to the ground away.
Blue glanced at the other people in the hall and put down his teacup. Fang Jin stepped forward and pushed Blue’s wheelchair away.
The remaining people watched Blue leave with lingering fear.
“What did they do? They were actually escorted to Iron Heart Island? No one has entered that terrifying place for more than ten years.”
“Shh, stop talking. If Mr. Blue finds out, you and I won’t be able to bear his anger.. Let’s go.”
