Ch. 131..135: Mr CEO Ex-wife Escapes Again Chapter 131-135
Chapter 131: Chapter 131 His voice trembled: “Yin Hehe… Chapter 131: Chapter 131 His voice trembled: “Yin Hehe… Yin Hehe was frozen still.
She heard footsteps coming towards her from behind, and in that moment, her whole body, down to each pore, felt icy cold.
She was about to be discovered!!
It was then, in that instant, she bit her lip and suddenly broke into a run.
“Will?”
The person behind her saw her and immediately shouted out loud again.
However, Yin Hehe didn’t stop. Instead, she raced to the stern of the boat and leapt into the air!
“Splash!”
A huge splash erupted beneath the boat.
The person behind was stunned.
It wasn’t until the woman in the water, nimble like a fish, darted into the deep with a swift plunge that he snapped out of his daze!
“She’s below! Down there!!” he cried out, overcome with excitement.
In an instant, as his cry fell, the people who were about to interrogate Yin Hehe about her whereabouts swarmed over like bees.
“What are you waiting for? Get down there and catch her now!!”
The leader roared in fury.
And so, these people, one by one, jumped into the sea, beginning their encirclement and hunt for Yin Hehe.
This hunt actually lacked suspense.
Because Yin Hehe hardly knew how to swim, when Sheng Siyuan had thrown her into the exhibit tank before,
she had almost drowned.
Thus, with so many people jumping in to chase after her now, her chances of escaping were slim to none.
Yet, bizarrely enough, these pursuers searched the waters for a good ten minutes and still hadn’t spotted a trace of her!
“A bunch of useless fools, why aren’t you getting a speedboat over here?”
The leader, believing that Yin Hehe was an exceptional swimmer and had already fled, yelled furiously from the cruise ship.
Before long, the speedboat took these men on a wild chase.
Meanwhile, from beneath the ship, after seeing that they had finally left, a slender figure tumbled down from the enormous propeller.
It was Yin Hehe!
“Glug…”
Pushing her limits, she used her last bit of strength to remove the silver needle from the acupoint that kept her air in; then, exhaling weakly in the frigid water, she let her body float up to the surface.
She was indeed very clever.
Knowing her swimming capabilities, jumping in might not have guaranteed her escape, so she’d resorted to a diversionary tactic instead.
Taking advantage of the darkness that had now fallen and the propeller’s natural barrier, she found her way to safety.
However, the long twenty-plus minutes of acupuncture and breath-holding had exhausted her completely, leaving her devoid of any strength to save herself.
Now floating to the surface, she was essentially leaving her fate to the heavens.
“Ugh—”
Indeed, just as she surfaced, a steel cable with a sharp five-pronged hook from the cruise ship snared her.
“Hahaha~~ I knew you were still down there. How does it feel, Lawyer Lan? You’ve still ended up in the palm of my hand, haven’t you?”
The ferocious laughter echoed from the cruise ship.
Yin Hehe, trembling in pain, opened her eyes and saw an officer, wearing white gloves, standing at the stern, laughing crazily.
It was that major; he’d actually come himself!
Yin Hehe’s pupils darkened completely, and as the sharp hook pulled her up, she didn’t even feel the pain.
“Thud!”
Just as she was about to be pulled into the ship, the man intentionally loosened his grip.
Suddenly, the very moment Yin Hehe was dangling mid-air, her entire body slammed into the stern of the ship, and the sharp claws of the hook pierced through her shoulder. Everything before her eyes went dark.
“I’ve heard that you were trained by Jin Saiwen, yet now, Jin Saiwen has been defeated by you. Lan Yi, tell me, should I peel open your skull to see what’s really inside?”
This military reject, who was clearly not right in the head, actually took a sharp dagger out of his boots after hooking Yin Hehe outside the ship.
In the gray light, Yin Hehe’s face turned so pale it was almost transparent in an instant.
He was going to… peel open her head?
She lifted her head. Although she had prepared herself, when she saw the twisted expression on the man’s face as he bent down with the dagger,
her pupils still showed immense fear!
“Click!”
The sharp sound of a blade slicing through human flesh finally cut through the air.
In that moment, she felt several drops of warm liquid fall on her icy cheek. She blinked, but didn’t feel the severe pain she had expected on the top of her head.
Instead, she saw a dark, burlap-like object fall down.
“Ah—”
A heart-wrenching scream exploded on the cruise ship.
“Murder! There’s been a murder!!”
“Help! An officer has been killed, beheaded—”
The entire cruise ship descended into chaos as the passengers who were still on deck, having witnessed such a horrifying scene at the stern, clutched their heads and frenziedly began darting about.
The remaining military personnel saw this and immediately rushed out.
But at that moment, a volley of bullets came flying from the shore. In just a few seconds, all of these people were down.
My God!
What kind of person was this?
The people on the cruise ship didn’t dare move anymore, and it was at this time that a red top-of-the-line SUV appeared on the shore.
It eyed the cruise ship, which had already pulled up the anchor. After a moment, following a growl like that of a wild beast, the next second, it floored the gas pedal and leaped toward the edge of the deck.
“Thud—”
It landed successfully on the deck, the heavy impact leaving everyone present stunned and awestruck!
This was too fierce.
Was it really… a car?
Yin Hehe also heard some noise, but at this moment, her consciousness was growing unclear, filled with pain, exhaustion…
But more than that, it was drowsiness that beset her.
She was so tired, so tired…
She just wanted to sleep well…
“Han Lina? Hold on, I’m pulling you up now.”
She seemed to hear a familiar man’s voice. He rushed over to her, his tone laden with a rage as mighty as a huge wave.
Yin Hehe’s eyelids fluttered.
She wanted to speak, but ultimately, her lips, already gone cold, just quivered a few times without making a sound.
“Mr. President, don’t move, we’ll do it.”
“Get out of the way!”
With that one sentence, Yin Hehe felt as if she were being moved upward, but with every bit she was moved, the pain intensified by an inch, such a torturous agony that, even in her semi-conscious state, she couldn’t help but groan.
“Don’t… pull me up, if you want to kill… just kill…”
She finally uttered some words.
But those breath-like few words were a plea for death amidst the immense torture.
The man came to an abrupt halt!
He stared at this woman, tormented beyond recognition. In that instant, as if struck hard in the chest, a wave of regret flooded over him so thoroughly that even the fingers clutched around the steel rope began to tremble.
Not long ago, he was still saying that he wanted her to completely disappear from this world!
Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Haha, Try Running Again? Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Haha, Try Running Again? Sheng Siyuan eventually pulled the woman up.
He didn’t yank her roughly; instead, he had himself lowered down and personally lifted her off the hook.
“President, how could this Lan Yi… have turned into Miss Han? Could she be…?”
Xu Guannan, standing by, was astonished to see Lan Yi pulled up and transformed into the nanny they were looking for.
He was utterly shocked.
But the man in front of him remained silent, simply laying the bloodied woman gently on the ground before noticing the blood seemingly seeping nonstop from around her face.
His pale, slender fingers trembled slightly as they reached towards her.
“Hiss—”
The disguise, soaked by seawater, was easily peeled off this time.
However, once it was removed, everyone was horrified by the sight of the marred, blood-stained face beneath.
“President, your wife, she…”
“…”
Still no response.
This time, the man’s fingers methodically gripped on, shaking unconsciously while his eyes, fixed on that almost grotesque face, shut tightly.
He actually couldn’t remember what she looked like, could he?
Back when they married, due to his aversion to the coerced marriage, he had never truly looked at her.
But now that he thought about it, she must have been good-looking.
After all, as picky as he was, if she had been unattractive, he wouldn’t have tolerated living under the same roof with her for a whole two years.
“Contact the hospital, gather all the best doctors here!!”
When he finally opened his eyes, he took off his jacket and embraced the woman.
He held her tight against his chest, allowing her mangled face to hide against his torso; that way, she probably wouldn’t be scared anymore.
He left the place.
A few minutes later, those who had gone after the killer in speedboats also returned.
Xu Guannan witnessed, with just a wave of a hand standing on the deck, the sea turned into a slaughterhouse, and the blood dyed the nearby waters red.
Honestly, this king of the Asian business community had never been afraid to kill.
He didn’t kill because there were still humanity, morality, and laws, but when these were trampled underfoot by some, treated as nothing!
Then, there was no need for him to be particular anymore; if he wanted to destroy everything, it was just a matter of lifting a finger.
That night, nearly all the doctors from the port were gathered at a hospital.
They did everything in their power to save a woman and finally, in the early hours of the morning, they succeeded in saving her life.
“Mr. Sheng, your wife’s surgery was very successful, but her face…”
“Speak!”
The man who had been waiting outside the operating room all night, with the pile of cigarette butts beside him resembling a small hill and his eyes bloodshot, looked somewhat terrifying.
Seeing this, the doctor replied quickly, “Because it’s a corrosive injury, it’s not that easy to recover…”
“…”
In the corridor, the air was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
The doctor didn’t dare make a sound.
Thankfully, the man didn’t lose his temper but extinguished another cigarette butt in the nearby trash can.
He asked, his voice hoarse, “Why would it be corrosive?”
“It must have been contact with some chemical materials, especially if used continuously without proper recovery after the initial injury, it will get worse.”
“…”
“Therefore, Mr. Sheng, please make sure she doesn’t come into contact with such substances again, or if she must, it should only be after her face has fully recovered,” the doctor added patiently.
Not having recovered in time after the injury.
The first time must have been when she returned from Myanmar, and he, wanting to confirm her identity, forcibly took her to the aquarium and threw her into the display tank.
He remembered that there was blood when he peeled off her face back then.
And soon after, that damned woman disguised herself as some kind of Moon Goddess to save her brother!
Then, Song Mansion, Mei Garden, here…
The man’s frosty thin lips twitched slightly, and after a long while, he turned around and left, diving into the car.
He should rest for a bit now.
At dusk.
Good news came from the hospital, saying that the patient was about to wake up.
“President, do you want to go have a look? If Madam wakes up and finds out that you have uncovered all her identities, what do you think she will think?”
When Xu Guannan met this man at the hotel, there was an unmistakable excitement in his tone.
He was indeed very eager to witness their encounter.
Yet the man who had slept for an entire day woke up, came out of the restroom after freshening up in a bathrobe, with no intention whatsoever of changing clothes to go to the hospital.
“You seem to be waiting to watch a good show?”
“Cough cough cough…”
Xu Guannan certainly didn’t dare admit to that.
“No… no, it’s just that Madam is about to wake up, isn’t she? When she awakens, she’ll have to meet with you sooner or later, right?”
“Heh, you think she is eager to see me?”
One sentence made the man who was pouring a glass of red wine instantly darken his handsome face.
Xu Guannan was stunned.
Does Madam… not want to see the President?
“When that damned woman made off with my son, she never once thought about seeing me again!”
Just thinking about it, the man who had taken a sip of his wine, thinking back to that night at Mei Garden, became so angry he gritted his teeth.
He was truly embarrassed that night.
He couldn’t even figure out where he had offended her. Was that damn woman thinking about running away again? Was she addicted to fleeing?
Crazy!
He guzzled the entire glass of wine down his throat.
“Has Meishan Qiandai been found yet?”
“Not yet, the person is known as the ‘Chameleon Fox’, frequently appearing in different guises all over the world, so finding her will take some time.”
Xu Guannan reported honestly.
Hearing this, the man’s face grew even more somber as he set his glass down on the cabinet with a “thud”.
“Then go to the hospital and tell the doctors not to let that woman wake up.”
“Ah?”
Xu Guannan was shocked.
Not let Madam wake up? Why?
He didn’t understand, but in fact, if he had listened closely to the complaints of his boss just now.
Perhaps, he would have understood.
Yes, this man, now utterly loathed the fact that Yin Hehe would vanish at the drop of a hat. He could completely imagine if she woke up and learned that all her alter egos had been unveiled.
She would surely disappear again.
And this time, he might never see her again.
Sheng Siyuan left the hotel.
Before long, he picked up two people at the airport, one big and one small.
“Eh? Bad Uncle, it’s you, where’s my mommy? Didn’t you say mommy was sick?”
The delicate and adorable Little Bun, as soon as she came through the airport passage and saw Sheng Siyuan, her eyes, round like grapes, blinked and immediately she peered behind him, asking in a milky voice.
Sheng Siyuan smelled the scent of milk.
All of a sudden, his mood worsened even more.
Damn woman, even had a child with another man, how long after the divorce and she can’t stand being lonely?
“Tell Uncle who your dad is, and then you’ll know where your mom is!”
In the end, he rather childishly blurted out such a sentence.
Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Missing My Daughter Like Crazy Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Missing My Daughter Like Crazy Wow, is Daddy an idiot? Asking who her real dad is?
Little Bun heard this and covered his chubby little face with his plump hands without looking.
Sheng Siyuan: “…”
Chen Xiaosen came out: “President, how long do you plan to keep this child? Do you need me to wait for her?”
This secretary, who traveled miles to bring the child, still asked this question out of concern amidst his confusion.
It was indeed quite strange.
Out of the blue, he received a call from Mr. President, ordering him to bring Little Bun over, but it was her mother who had the accident. So why bring the child over?
“No need, you can go back.”
Unexpectedly, the man rejected the offer with a word.
Chen Xiaosen was even more surprised.
“Ah? President, do you mean to let her stay with you? Can you take care of her? She’s so young, she…”
“You don’t need to worry about this. Go back and tell those old fools to behave themselves. Otherwise, when I get back, they won’t know what hit them!”
The man cut him off impatiently.
Taking Little Bun from Chen Xiaosen’s arms, he turned and walked away.
Chen Xiaosen: “…”
It wasn’t until the man had walked a good distance that he stamped his foot in frustration.
No, if he didn’t go back now, the company’s mess would be impossible to clean up.
Keep in mind that although things took a turn for the better after he got out of his predicament, those with hidden agendas still wouldn’t give up. Due to this incident, he had indeed made crucial mistakes that caused the company to suffer huge losses!
Chen Xiaosen was so anxious that he was foaming at the mouth.
—
Three days later, at the hospital.
“Mr. Xu, if you don’t let this patient wake up, there will be trouble. I’ve been using sedatives on her for two days now. If you don’t stop, I won’t take responsibility if something goes wrong with her!”
Xu Guannan arrived at the hospital early in the morning, only to be caught by the attending physician.
He poured out his grievances, looking very haggard.
Xu Guannan: “…”
He also wanted to wake the woman up, but his boss wouldn’t allow it.
Xu Guannan could only assure: “Don’t worry, our president definitely won’t let her remain unconscious indefinitely, you don’t understand. He’s been tormented by this woman’s child these past two days…”
Thinking back to the man constantly on the brink of collapse in the hotel room over the past two days, Xu Guannan silently swallowed the rest of his sentence.
Seeing this, the doctor could only walk away with a sagging face.
Luckily, by noon that day, after learning that the woman had stabilized, the hospital received a message to discharge her.
“Discharged? Of course, that’s great. Shall I wake her up right now?”
The doctor couldn’t stop thinking about this.
But Xu Guannan still refused.
“Not necessary. We’re transferring her to a hospital in M country where the medical conditions are better, so she can have a more adequate recuperation.”
“…”
The doctor was flabbergasted!
Such minor injuries required better recuperation? If she was allowed to wake up, she’d be jumping around already.
The doctor felt insulted.
Yet even so, he dared not say a word until the patient was taken away.
That same day, a private plane carrying the still-unconscious woman flew to M country, accompanied by Little Bun, who had been waiting by Mommy’s side for her to wake up.
“Bad uncle, will Mommy really wake up once we get to M country? Then can Youyou always stay with Mommy?”
In the cabin 10,000 meters in the sky, Little Bun, who was sitting in the chair, saw that the bad Daddy next to her was busy working and ignoring her. She walked over to Mommy with her little short legs.
She didn’t want to stay next to her Daddy anymore.
He never played with her, and he was so stupid. He didn’t know how to help her put on pretty flower dresses or feed her yummy food.
Little Bun wiped the messy hair from her forehead with her chubby hands.
Sheng Siyuan: “…”
He couldn’t bear to watch anymore, so with a “snap,” he closed the laptop on his lap.
“Come here!”
“Huh?”
The little round face, still dripping with snot bubbles, immediately turned towards this crappy dad.
“Wash your face clean, and I’ll take you to eat something delicious.”
Sheng Siyuan pulled out a pristine white handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to the little girl.
The girl’s eyes lit up instantly.
Delicious food, yay!
She immediately scurried over from beside her mommy, her round chubby face full of anticipation.
“Alright.”
She grabbed the handkerchief, haphazardly wiped her face with it, and then threw it back.
Sheng Siyuan: “…”
Watching the girl become even more of a mess, he felt a vein in his forehead throb violently.
She’s this big already and still doesn’t know how to wash her face. What kind of mother is she? To think that his, Sheng Siyuan’s, seed could take showers and dress himself by age four!
With a hint of scorn on his lips, he glanced at the woman who was still unconscious on the stretcher. He finally deemed it beneath his dignity to stand up.
“Watch carefully, this is how you wash your face!”
He took Little Bun into the restroom on the plane and began to patiently teach her how to wash her face with the handkerchief.
Little Bun leaned on the washbasin.
Seeing a very pretty nightlight beside the mirror, she stretched out her chubby little hand and grabbed for it.
“What are you doing? I’m washing your face for you!”
“No, no, Youyou wants that. Uncle, it’s a little duck! Why does the little duck glow?”
She didn’t care.
Seeing that the nightlight was her favorite little duck, she couldn’t hold back anymore and stomped hard on the back of her naughty dad.
“Splat!”
She actually climbed up there.
The man behind her turned green as he looked at the dirty little footprints on his shirt.
“Wow~~ Uncle, it turns out it’s not a real little duck, it has a switch, hehehe~~”
The clear and excited voice of the little girl suddenly echoed in the restroom, and holding the nightlight she finally got her hands on, Little Bun turned around and looked at him.
She was very happy.
On her dirty little face, her big beautiful eyes were smiling like crescents, and on her round chubby cheeks, you could see two very sweet dimples.
Sheng Siyuan was stunned.
He had never seen such a bright smile, so sweet and soft, just like how her mother used to be when she was around him five years ago, always gentle and tender.
“Uncle?”
Little Bun, seeing daddy not reacting for so long, finally became a bit afraid.
Did she do something naughty?
Her little face fell, and looking at the nightlight in her hand, she pursed her little mouth and obediently prepared to put it back.
“Don’t move. If you want this, wash your face clean first.”
The man finally spoke, holding the little girl still, he picked up the damp handkerchief again and carefully wiped her face.
Little Bun was happy again.
“Okay, uncle is the best. Youyou will give you a big kiss.”
Then, cuddling in the man’s hands like a little kitten, the round little head moved in closer.
“Plop—”
Soft!
And wet with slobbery kiss!!!
It took Sheng Siyuan a while to process what had just happened even after he had cleaned up Little Bun and carried her out.
How on earth is this not his daughter, damn it?
Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Every Possible Way to Cover for Her Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Every Possible Way to Cover for Her The plane had arrived in M country.
It was still the same clinic as before, but this time the patient living in the VIP ward wasn’t Cen Bao, but had become Yin Hehe instead.
“Let her rest for a month, but no need for her to awake!”
Upon his arrival, Sheng Siyuan met the doctor he had known for many years and said indifferently as he lit a cigarette.
Doctor Tofiel was shocked too!
“Why? She doesn’t have severe symptoms, she should already be waking up!”
“I know, just do as I say, and remember, it’s under the condition that it doesn’t harm any of her bodily functions.”
The man’s last words were in a commanding tone.
The doctor was dumbfounded.
But in the end, he had no choice but to comply because he understood this man’s temperament all too well.
So, that very day, Yin Hehe stayed in the clinic.
And this man casually bought a detached villa in the local area later that evening and moved in with the little girl.
——
The news reached home, and not only did Shengshi Group explode!
Even Lin Shuang, who was grounded at the Lin Family home, immediately jumped up, “Is he sick? Why doesn’t he come back immediately? What is he buying that dump for? Does he not plan to keep the company anymore?”
She was trembling with anger.
Previously, after the M country banquet incident, she was brought back, but she had always paid attention to outside affairs, just so she could have a chance to leave.
But the good news she was waiting for never came.
Instead, she heard that the man had an accident. God knows how she endured those days, feeling disappointed, angry, desperate…
She even started to doubt if she had been blind to fall for such a useless man!
Fortunately, this man finally got out of trouble.
But what now? At such a critical time, he doesn’t rush back but instead buys a house in M country. Has his brain gone bad?
Or maybe, is he truly useless?
“Miss Lin, he brought that nanny back with him. She’s now with Doctor Tofiel, but she has been severely injured and hasn’t woken up. I guess that’s why he’s staying.”
The person who gathered the information for her was actually the cleaner from the clinic.
Upon hearing her rage over the phone, he quickly added an explanation.
Lin Shuang’s pupils shrank immediately.
“The nanny? He found her again? Wasn’t she already gone before?”
“Yes, but he truly brought her back this time. I heard that Mr. Sheng happened upon her while he was on his way to see that lawyer.”
The cleaner then patiently relayed some of the things he overheard at the clinic.
The woman fell into silence as the call ended.
Such a coincidence?
She definitely knew about the lawyer; the commotion in M country had been significant, and that live televised session in the International Court was so sensational.
She must have known about the famed Lan Yi.
But how did Sheng Siyuan, on his way to find Lan Yi, happen to come across this nanny? And so coincidentally, she too was seriously injured.
The woman was deep in thought.
“Miss Lin, if there’s nothing else, then I’ll hang up, can’t talk too long or I’ll be discovered.”
“Wait a moment.” Finally, the woman spoke.
“Is that nanny in your clinic now?”
“Yes, she’s in the same ward where young master Cen Bao stayed. Mr. Sheng has also hired specialized personnel for her care.”
That statement made the woman so jealous and hateful that she wished she could fly over immediately and tear the nanny to pieces!
That despicable woman!
She had paid such a heavy price to drive her away from that man.
But now, she had the audacity to come back like a lingering ghost.
“Good, so now I’ll give you a task, keep a close watch on her, and see who she really is.”
“What do you mean, Miss Lin?”
“Haven’t you said that her face has always been wrapped up? I’m very curious, back when I was in the States, her face was bandaged like a pig’s head. Why is it still the same now? Almost a month has passed; can’t her face heal?”
She said sinisterly on the phone.
Indeed, this was very strange. If it had been an ordinary person, the healing period for skin wounds, a month’s time should have been enough, right?
Han Lina, wait for me, I really want to see, are you human or ghost?
——
The States.
Time flew by, and half a month later, Doctor Tofiel discovered that the wounds on the face of the woman lying in the VIP ward had crusted and fallen off.
“Wow~~”
Seeing the now smooth face, Tofiel showed a hint of amazement.
“Turns out, this nanny is so beautiful. But what a pity, her beauty has been destroyed.”
He sighed again, looking at the face that had become smooth but still clearly marred by interlacing scars, showing a look of deep regret.
A few minutes later, he personally applied some ointment and then left.
This was also something Sheng Siyuan had insisted on, to have it done by his hands.
But this time, considering that the face had crusted and fallen off, he didn’t cover it with gauze again. Until he left, Yin Hehe lay there with her face uncovered.
It was at this time that a sneaky figure appeared.
She came to the entrance of the ward, saw that there was nobody inside, and prepared to push the door open with overwhelming excitement.
“Who’s there?”
At the crucial moment, Xu Guannan appeared from behind. Seeing someone trying to sneak in, he immediately shouted!
The cleaner was scared stiff on the spot.
“Sorry, I just… wanted to clean up inside, it hasn’t been cleaned in a long time.”
She stammered an explanation hastily.
Xu Guannan’s sharp eyes glared at her fiercely: “Cleaning? This is the VIP ward area. What qualifications do you, a low-level cleaner, have to clean here?”
He didn’t believe her lie at all, reaching out and yanking her by the collar!
“Speak, who sent you here? What do you plan to do?”
Asking this, Xu Guannan actually suspected people from the military.
Because, after the port incident half a month ago, as soon as Sheng Siyuan returned, he went straight to the Prime Minister, and afterwards, the military underwent a massive purge. Overnight, the faction led by a certain major was all sent to the military court.
Therefore, he had every reason to suspect that these few who escaped the net would seek revenge.
The cleaner fainted from fear.
Not long after, Doctor Tofiel, hearing the commotion, hurried over.
“Sorry, Captain Xu, Mary has worked for me for many years. It was my mistake for not explaining things clearly and letting her come up to work on her own.”
He immediately began explaining with an apologetic face as he approached.
He had spoken up.
Ultimately, Xu Guannan could only let the cleaner go, but when he entered the ward, he saw Yin Hehe lying on the hospital bed with her face exposed, and his expression changed.
“Doctor Tofiel, remember to cover the patient’s face after applying the medicine next time. Our CEO does not want anyone to see her face riddled with holes.”
“Understood!”
“Also, after she wakes up, you must also forget what you saw today!”
With that last sentence, Xu Guannan lifted his gaze to look at the doctor, his eyes cold as the ice ridges in the dead of winter, chilling to the bone!
Chapter 135: Chapter 135: It’s Really Troublesome to Sweet-Talk a Woman Chapter 135: Chapter 135: It’s Really Troublesome to Sweet-Talk a Woman Yin Hehe finally woke up that day. She slowly opened her eyes to see the long-missed brightness and colorful splendor. She felt as if she had slept for a century.
“Miss Han, you’re finally awake?”
A gentle male voice rang out beside her.
She was startled, turned her head, and then noticed a very burly and strong middle-aged man standing by the bed.
“Xu…. Captain Xu?” she said, her voice so hoarse it frightened her a bit.
“What’s happened to me? Where is this? And how… How come you are here?”
She immediately covered her throat, looking at the man in a panic.
Xu Guannan remained silent.
True to being a highly intelligent woman, after having slept for so long, she started asking questions the moment she awoke, rapid-fire, without the slightest hindrance to her cognitive processes.
“Don’t panic. Your throat is hoarse because you’ve been unconscious for so long. Miss Han, you’ve been in a coma for a full month after your surgery,”
he said and poured a cup of warm water, handing it to her.
A month?
The woman, who had just sat up in bed, suddenly lifted her head sharply.
“I’ve… been unconscious for so long?”
“Yes, the Five Dragon Claws pierced through your lung lobe. Had the president not promptly transferred you here for surgery by helicopter, you might have lost your life.”
Xu Guannan smoothly fabricated a story, causing the woman to tremble and remain speechless for a long time.
It was like walking through Ghost Gate.
Who wouldn’t be disturbed by such news?
“Thank… thank you.”
It took over a minute before she managed to speak, still shaken, holding the cup in her hands.
Xu Guannan nodded and took out his phone, ready to notify his boss.
“Then, how did you find me? Don’t tell me you… ”
She suddenly seemed to realize something; her amber pupils, just calmed, contracted sharply again. She reached for her face.
“We were originally chasing Lan Yi, but once we got to Garo Sea port, the trail went cold. Later, on that ship, we saw you being dangled outside by that major, so…”
Xu Guannan was saying this when he suddenly stopped; both gazes fell on Yin Hehe’s face.
Yin Hehe’s lips turned pale immediately.
Touching her own face, which didn’t feel like her own, she looked at the security captain. A chill still climbed up from the soles of her feet.
Had she been exposed?
Indeed, how could she not have been discovered under those circumstances? Her facial disguise must have nearly disintegrated in the water, right?
“Better wait for the president to come and explain it to him, Lawyer Lan!”
In the end, Xu Guannan called out the name and then turned to leave.
Yin Hehe sat dumbfounded in the hospital room.
It wasn’t until his figure was nearly out of sight that she leaped off the bed like a madwoman and rushed into the restroom.
Indeed, once inside, she saw a face very familiar to her.
However, it wasn’t her own, but the one belonging to a nanny, which she had switched to on the ship at the last moment.
What happened?
Why was it still on her face? Could it be that… it had been soaked in the sea water for so long without issue? But clearly, even before she jumped into the sea, the corrosive effect of the solution was evident.
Her mind was in complete disarray.
It was then that the sound of a man’s steady and rhythmic footsteps in leather shoes came from outside the hospital room.
!!!!!!
Her entire body began to shake…
“Where is she?”
As expected, when the footsteps reached the door of the hospital room, there came a loud “bang”, and an angry male voice thundered through the room.
Yin Hehe immediately closed her eyes again.
She didn’t know how bad the situation had become for her, but if it all came out, she knew that she would just have to face it.
Yin Hehe took a deep breath and, after a moment, came out from inside trying to appear calm.
“…”
The man standing in the hospital room was dressed in a dark shirt that was not quite tidy, casually topped with a black coat, revealing his hasty arrival.
But it was precisely because of this that he exuded an aura of fierce and chilling severity that made one shudder!
“Hehe—finally awake, Miss Han,” he sneered coldly, addressing her as Miss Han.
Yin Hehe immediately pinched her fingers in the palm of her hand several times.
“Yeah, I heard… it was you who saved me this time, thank… thank you.”
“Don’t be like that, why are you thanking me? I should be thanking you, Attorney Lan, thanks to your intervention, I, Sheng Siyuan, didn’t end up a ghost under someone else’s gun. So, have you thought about how you want me to repay you?”
She had never seen him act so mockingly before. He leaned against the door frame, his thin lips curling with a thick sarcasm as if he wanted to bite her to death at that moment!
Yin Hehe: “…”
After a long while, holding her not-so-frantic chest, she stuttered, “Have you discovered everything?”
“Hehe—” Upon hearing her words, the man laughed even louder.
“Of course! Who do you think I am? I am Sheng Siyuan. It only took me half a year to dig you out, impressive, isn’t it?”
“…”
Yin Hehe was finally beginning to falter.
She pursed her lips and began to explain, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to deceive you, it’s just that at that time… I thought it wasn’t suitable to send Cen Bao over with that identity.”
“So, who exactly are you? And what is your relationship with Yin Hehe?”
His gaze suddenly sharpened, and with a quick step forward, he forced Yin Hehe to retreat several steps!
“I… I am Lan Yi. The identity of Han Lina is one I fabricated.”
“And this face of yours? Is it real?”
Not only did he not let her off the hook after her explanation, but he pressed in even closer, reaching out to grab Yin Hehe’s face.
Yin Hehe was startled!
She tried to dodge, but realized his fingernails had already touched her cheek. In an instant, she felt a sharp pain as he pinched her face, lifting it high and causing tears to stream down her face.
“It really isn’t fake!”
The man saw this and begrudgingly let go of her face.
Yin Hehe’s mind felt as though it had been struck by something as she stared blankly at the man who had let go. Her thoughts turned into a complete blank.
Why was it like this?
She was certain… it wasn’t this face, so how did it now seem to have grown onto her face?
She didn’t move.
Sheng Siyuan, who hadn’t noticed this, started to mock her mercilessly after confirming.
“I’ve been wondering why despite searching the entire internet, I couldn’t find a single picture of the famous Lan Yi. It turns out it’s because you’re too ugly!”
“…”
It was only after a while that Yin Hehe, standing at the doorway of the washroom, heard herself speak as if she were a wandering spirit: “Jin Saiwen knew what I looked like.”
“Him? He was killed by that group of people the moment you won against him!”
The man immediately said with schadenfreude.
Yin Hehe froze again.
Jin Saiwen had been killed?
So, that meant the man before her didn’t know what Lan Yi looked like?
Jin Saiwen did provide her original photo to that group in the military, but after they were wiped out on the cruise, her photo was probably lost too.
So now, had she truly escaped a catastrophe?
All of a sudden, Yin Hehe relaxed completely, releasing the breath she had been holding. She felt as if she had been stripped of strength and staggered before collapsing towards the ground.
“!!!!!”
The man, who had kept an eye on her from the corner of his eye, immediately rushed over to catch her tightly in his arms.
