Chapter 77 Tongtong has been found.
Ye Chengyan snapped out of his daze and forced a smile. "It's alright. Please take care of Xiaoze here for a bit. I have something to do and need to go out first."
Yu Baisu nodded understandingly, but her face darkened instantly after Ye Chengyan left.
She had just thought that she and Chengyan would take things further.
She even went out of her way to show off her stunning figure.
Cheng Yan's attitude had clearly changed just now, so where did things go wrong?
damn it!
Yu Baisu's face contorted with anger. She gritted her teeth and glared at Ye Ze, who was occupying her hospital bed and kept calling her "Mom."
She walked over and pinched his arm hard, her malicious expression like that of a heartless stepmother.
Ye Chengyan was completely unaware of this and went to the police station after leaving the ward.
What he thought would be an easy matter turned out to be dragged on until noon the next day before he was finally free.
……
Yunzhi was awakened by a system notification sound.
[Please note that there are only two days left before the host leaves this world.]
She suddenly opened her eyes, one hand covering her rapidly beating heart as she sat up.
Everything was pitch black. Yunzhi groped around and picked up the phone that Cheng Shuyan had prepared for her again, which was next to her pillow.
A blinding white light appeared.
She stared blankly at the time displayed on it.
00:00
A new day has begun, but her Tongtong is still nowhere to be found.
She leaned against the window, helplessly covering her eyes.
Five minutes later, unable to sleep, Yunzhi dragged her fractured left leg out of the bedroom, intending to go outside to the garden for some fresh air.
To my surprise, when I opened the door, the outside was brightly lit.
Yunzhi closed her eyes and adjusted for a while before walking down the stairs. As soon as she entered, she saw Cheng Shuyan asleep on the sofa.
On the table in front of Cheng Shuyan, there were rows of documents laid out.
She glanced at them casually and discovered that these were all engineering contractors that the Ye family had once intended to cooperate with.
Why would he suddenly investigate these things? Didn't Anjia's contractor already hand over the cooperation to the Cheng family?
After watching for only a short while, Yunzhi started to feel a headache.
She gently rubbed her temples with one hand, temporarily putting the matter out of her mind.
Her current physical condition no longer allows her to engage in strenuous physical or mental labor.
Yunzhi moved closer to Cheng Shuyan and looked at the dark circles under his eyes, feeling guilty and ashamed.
Although I don't know why my brother was researching these things in the middle of the night, it must be because of her.
If we're talking about who she felt most indebted to when she left this world, besides Tongtong, it would be Cheng Shuyan.
Cheng Shuyan helped her so much that she could never repay him.
Yunzhi sighed softly, picked up the suit jacket beside her, and carefully covered Cheng Shuyan with it.
Just as she was about to get up, the man who had been fast asleep suddenly opened his eyes, his sharp and shrewd gaze falling on her. Then she felt a hand grab her wrist, and in a flash, she was pinned down by the man.
The reassuring scent emanating from Cheng Shuyan enveloped her completely.
Yunzhi's ears turned red, and she braced her hands against Cheng Shuyan's chest.
"Brother, it's me."
She whispered a reminder, not daring to look at Cheng Shuyan at all.
That's how she comforted herself.
This was all because Cheng Shuyan wasn't fully awake, and his body was acting on its own instincts. Yunzhi believed he had no ulterior motives, but would someone who wasn't fully awake just rely on instinct to pin another person down?
She wasn't a three-year-old child; she understood some of the intricacies involved. And Cheng Shuyan's thoughts were sometimes practically written all over her face.
She simply couldn't respond.
Her time is running out.
Her response did nothing but add to Cheng Shuyan's painful memories.
Yunzhi had thought more than once that if her initial target had been Cheng Shuyan instead of Ye Chengyan, would she have been able to have a happy future here?
But every time this idea came to mind, she would interrupt it.
How could someone as wonderful as Cheng Shuyan be the dark and obsessive second male lead in the book?
"Sorry, Zhizhi, I was still half asleep." Cheng Shuyan reluctantly let go of Yunzhi. He stood up, walked to the side and sat down, trying to hide the fleeting sadness on his face.
Was he really in a daze?
No.
Even if he was still half asleep, Cheng Shuyan's upbringing would not have allowed him to do such a lewd thing.
He was simply following his heart, wanting to see how Yunzhi would react.
Yunzhi smiled slightly, "It's alright, brother. It's getting late, you should go upstairs and go to sleep."
"Zhizhi, Tongtong has been found."
The two voices rang out almost simultaneously.
Yunzhi was stunned for a moment, as if something had exploded in her mind.
She stood up abruptly, but due to her fractured left shinbone and lack of support, she swayed and sat down again.
Cheng Shuyan was worried for Yunzhi. Only after making sure she was seated firmly did he withdraw his hand that was protecting her from behind.
"Brother, have you found Tongtong? Where is Tongtong? I'm going to bring Tongtong back right now."
Yunzhi's voice was trembling with tears.
At this moment, she couldn't care about anything else. She gripped Cheng Shuyan's arm tightly with both hands, looking at him with pleading and hopeful eyes.
Yunzhi was terrified that if she left this world, she would never be able to find Tongtong.
"Zhizhi, calm down. Tongtong is at Hospital A. I'll go there and bring her back in a bit."
Cheng Shuyan still remembered Yunzhi's illness, and placed a hand on her back to soothe her.
"Hospital A?" Yunzhi froze.
She escaped from Hospital A, so how could she not know that Hospital A was Ye Chengyan's territory?
That's right. Ye Chengyan would only leave Tongtong at Hospital A to threaten her into donating bone marrow to Yu Baisu.
She had just escaped from the hospital, and Ye Chengyan was currently in a fit of rage.
There must still be quite a few of Ye Chengyan's spies in Hospital A.
Although she found Tongtong as soon as possible, she didn't want anything to happen to Cheng Shuyan.
"Brother, how about in a few days..." Yunzhi bit her lip, unable to say the rest of the sentence.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and her heart ached as if it were being torn apart.
She wanted Cheng Shuyan to wait a few days until Ye Chengyan lowered his guard before bringing Tongtong back.
But if she did that, she wouldn't be able to see Tongtong one last time.
Cheng Shuyan raised his hand, gently patted the top of her head, and comforted her in a gentle tone.
“It’s alright. Ye Chengyan is currently embroiled in trouble and can’t attend to the hospital for the time being. You just left the hospital, so he’s probably certain you won’t be back anytime soon. The guards at the hospital will likely let their guard down. Now is the perfect time.”
Yunzhi thought about it and felt that Cheng Shuyan's words made sense.
She didn't say that she wanted to go with Cheng Shuyan.
Yunzhi knew her current physical condition; if she went with him, she would only be a burden to Cheng Shuyan.
She slowly spoke, "Brother, do you believe me?"
