Jiang Ning thought, "Did I guess it right? You ran so fast, as if you were afraid that I would catch you."

"Are Gu Yuan's family members here?"

"I'm here!"

A nurse in a green protective suit came out of the operating room with a list in her hand that stated the risk level of the operation and the sharing of responsibilities.

Jiang Ning signed his name on it without thinking.

The nurse hurried back. Now, time is life. If she is one minute late, Gu Yuan’s life would be in danger.

Jiang Ning paced back and forth in the corridor outside the door, and suddenly thought that when she was sick and hospitalized, Gu Yuan was as anxious as she was.

As time passed, Jiang Ning's pace became faster and faster, and she realized it herself.

The "In Surgery" light suddenly turned off, and Gu Yuan was pushed out wearing a ventilator. He seemed to be conscious, and his eyes were still searching for someone.

Jiang Ning rushed to Gu Yuan's bedside and grabbed his hand. Gu Yuan looked in her direction and they looked at each other. Just one look was enough to explain everything.

The operation went smoothly and Gu Yuan was transferred to the ward. Jiang Ning sat next to him and kept him company.

The aunt from the family also came over and brought him some soup. Jiang Ning wanted to feed him, but Gu Yuan insisted on doing it himself.

"Auntie, please go out for a while. I have something to talk to him alone."

Jiang Ning sent her aunt away, and she and Gu Yuan were the only ones left in the room.

Gu Yuan put down the bowl in his hand and asked her, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Ning looked a little serious, staring straight at Gu Yuan, and said:

"Just now, a man named 'Falcon' said that you arranged it and told me to protect myself. What's going on?"

Gu Yuan glanced at his side, picked up a flower and played with it, then spoke with difficulty:

"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you. In fact, Li Yiming has been trying to swallow up the Gu Group. He and his sister are in the same group. I think I need to protect the family business that I have accumulated over the years, so I sent people to monitor them, but I didn't expect them to find out."

Jiang Ning asked back: "Then what? Did they retaliate against you for your injury today?"

"That should be the case. I've asked detectives to investigate. They did all this on purpose, even at the cost of a life! The person who hit us with his car is already dead!"

Gu Yuan was a little emotional, and his arm where the infusion was received was affected, causing some blood to come out. Jiang Ning helped him get the infusion tube back to normal.

The amount of information is too great for anyone to take in.

Jiang Ning: "Do you mean that we are now in competition with Li Yiming?"

Gu Yuan's eyes were sharp, not like a patient who had just finished surgery: "It's not just competition, he even wants to kill me, and you too, he is also ruthless."

Jiang Ning was so scared that he stammered, "But...but...the Li Yiming I saw was not like this..."

"Don't assume that. Look at what he actually did. What if I don't wake up today? He's determined to die."

Gu Yuan lay back on the bed, covered himself with the quilt, and closed his eyes to rest, but he did not seem sleepy at all.

"This this……"

"Don't think about that mess anymore. Actually, everyone in your crew is fine. They all teamed up to commit a huge scam, and the only prey here is you."

Gu Yuan looked at the ceiling. A few hours ago, he was wearing a smart suit, but now he was lying on the bed in a hospital gown. He was not reconciled.

Feeling that Jiang Ning was still standing beside him, Gu Yuan felt guilty. He clearly loved her, but he couldn't protect her, and she got hurt.

"It's my fault. I didn't see Li Yiming's true face. If I had known, I wouldn't have let you join his crew. I would have tried every means to stop him. But it's too late to say anything now. You should think about how to deal with it. At least, as long as you are by my side, you will be absolutely safe."

Jiang Ning was still wearing the clothes he wore when he came out of the crew. The blood stains had dried on the clothes, turning from dark red to black, staining the pure white clothes.

"You mean, all of them are okay, right?"

Jiang Ning was a little bit unbelievable. She wanted to confirm it again, and even wanted to hear Li Yiming say it himself that everything was a lie and everything was fake.

"Don't disbelieve me. Falcon has worked beside me for so many years. I know him. He never makes mistakes."

In order to make Jiang Ning believe him, Gu Yuan showed Jiang Ning all the chat records between him and the detective on his phone one by one. They contained photos, voice, video, and other forms of evidence, which could prove that those people were not sick at all, and that their sleepiness was just fake.

"What about the Little Guaxian? Special Assistant Li went to see it with me, and she also told me to be careful of Li Xi."

Jiang Ning still found it a little unconvincing. She believed that everyone had many faces and each person appeared different in front of different people.

In front of her, Li Yiming was a thorough good man, or she simply didn't believe that Li Yiming was a person who would kill for money.

"Yes, that's right. It's to remind you to be wary of them and prevent them from doing anything unfavorable to you. Special Assistant Li also told me, but through our investigation, the little fortune-teller you mentioned is just a half-baked one."

Jiang Ning: "What's the point of saying this now? You're injured too, and I don't have to go to the crew tomorrow."

Gu Yuan used his arms to support his whole body and sat up. He took Jiang Ning's arm and sat down beside his bed. He whispered softly in her ear:

"It doesn't matter. I can always recommend resources and connections to you. I'm not that far behind him. I'm just afraid that you'll get hurt. It's me today, but what if it's your turn someday? You've been hurt before, and I don't even dare to imagine what my future will be like without you!"

Then Gu Yuan moved his body with difficulty and held Jiang Ning in his arms. They were so close that they could hear each other's true feelings.

A skyscraper towering into the sky is located in the center of the city. It is brightly lit, illuminating the entire city like daytime.

The exquisite and simple layout of the luxurious office on the top floor further highlights the low-key luxury.

"How are they doing over there?"

A cold male voice sounded, without any emotion in his tone, only desire.

"Mr. Li, they seem to have realized it and are currently trying to cut off our contact with the outside world."

"A bunch of rubbish, you can't even take care of a person! What use do I have for you!!"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, boss. Please spare my life!"

The man leading the group of people standing below was so frightened that his voice was shaking.

The man's incredible anger could scare everyone present with just one sentence.

He sat in the boss chair and slowly turned around, revealing his face.
