"Okay, have you calmed down?"

Bai Yiran nodded and said, "I was too reckless."

The two returned to Bai Yiran's ward and found Lin Yuqing lying on the bed, sleeping soundly. On the ground, there was a strange man with an injured arm, unconscious.

His face darkened as Zhang Kaifeng leaned over to check on the man on the ground. He discovered that his hands were tied behind his back with a note beside him.

Looking at the content above, Zhang Kaifeng's face looked very unhappy.

Bai Yiran gently patted Lin Yuqing's cheek and called out, "Yuqing, wake up."

As if she heard someone calling her, Lin Yuqing opened her hazy eyes and looked at the person opposite her sleepily.

Is it the same?

After seeing the person opposite her clearly, Lin Yuqing seemed a little lost.

It seems that I was just dreaming!

Lin Yuqing sat up straight with a sense of disappointment. She saw a strange man on the ground with his hands tied behind his back. She covered her lips in surprise and murmured, "Oh my God, what's going on? What just happened?"

"Yuqing, don't you know what happened?"

Lin Yuqing shook her head in confusion and said, "I just fell asleep and had a dream. I didn't hear anything."

In her dream, she also saw Xiao Mingyang. If only this dream were true.

With her head slightly lowered, Lin Yuqing felt bitter.

Zhang Kaifeng had been observing the changes in Lin Yuqing's expression, and found that she seemed to be hiding something, and his eyes narrowed.

After a phone call, Zhang Kaifeng asked someone to get rid of the man and send Lin Yuqing home to let her have a good rest.

Originally, Lin Yuqing insisted on going back alone. She didn't want to have the chance to be alone with Zhang Kaifeng, which made her feel very awkward.

But Zhang Kaifeng was very persistent. Looking at Lin Yuqing who was still trying to struggle, he said without giving her any room for refusal: "Now is not the time to be willful. Don't you see that someone wants to harm you?"

Lin Yuqing moved her lips and whispered in defense, "Perhaps their target is Yi Ran. I think you should protect him."

"Isn't the murderer blind? He can't even tell whether it's a man or a woman? If someone hadn't appeared and saved you, I'm afraid you would be a corpse now!"

Lin Yuqing was stunned and asked, "Didn't you save me?"

Zhang Kaifeng pursed his lips, said nothing, and his eyes were cold.

But his silence completely confused Lin Yuqing.

If it wasn't Zhang Kaifeng, then who saved him? Could it really be Xiao Mingyang?!

The sudden idea made Lin Yuqing's face flushed and a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes.

Looking at Lin Yuqing's happy face, Zhang Kaifeng felt very uncomfortable.

This little woman is very smart. Even if he didn't point it out, she probably already has the answer in her heart.

But why didn't that man show up? He was able to protect Lin Yuqing in time, which means he had been protecting her in the dark. What was he planning?

Zhang Kaifeng felt heartbroken when he thought about the consequences that would have happened to Lin Yuqing if that person had not protected her.

……

After hanging up the phone, Vivian looked uneasy.

Vivian stood up from the sofa, thought for a while, and really didn't know what to do, so she decided to go meet someone.

Inside the cafe

Seeing Lilith already sitting by the window, Vivian felt relieved. She hurried over to sit across from her and said, "What should I do? It seems like someone knows I did it."

"What's the rush?" Lilith put down her cup slowly, raised her hand to call the waiter, and said, "Order a drink first, and we'll talk slowly."

It’s already this late, and she’s still thinking about drinking. This woman really doesn’t know what’s important and what’s not!

Although she was very dissatisfied with Lilith, Vivian still patiently ordered a cup of cappuccino. After taking a sip, she asked, "I just told you on the phone that they seem to have started to suspect me. Ling Tian warned me not to touch Shirley. If he knew it was me, I'm afraid my life would be in danger!"

"Is that all you've got?" Lilith put down her cup and said calmly, "So what if they found out? You've been with Nan Lingtian for so long, is he really going to kill you for an adopted daughter? Stop kidding!"

"You don't understand Ling Tian!" Vivian said, "Although Shirley and he aren't related by blood, he loves her very much."

"You love her so much that she wants to marry someone she doesn't like?"

"What's the point of liking someone? How could someone with Bai Yiran's family background be worthy of Shirley?" Vivian said with disdain, "David is a kind and powerful man, and he and Shirley have known each other since childhood. He's the best candidate for marriage. But this girl doesn't know how to appreciate her blessings and ruined a good marriage. She really doesn't know what's good for her!"

If Qingtian really married David, I'm afraid Vivian wouldn't dare to cause trouble for her. But what she didn't expect was that Zhang Kaifeng suddenly appeared to disrupt the situation, making her current situation precarious.

Drinking black coffee, Lilith curled the corners of her lips and said disdainfully: "Nan Lingtian thinks so much of Shirley, could he really have something going on with her?"

Vivian's face turned pale, and she said in a cold voice, "Their relationship is father and daughter, and it's destined to have no results in this life! Before, it was Shirley who kept pestering Ling Tian, ​​but Ling Tian never fell in love with her!"

"Why are you so nervous? I was just saying it casually." Lilith looked at Vivian with amusement, supporting her chin with one hand, smiling charmingly.

Vivian was gradually becoming dissatisfied. If she hadn't had something to discuss with this woman, she really wanted to throw the coffee in her face!

Taking a deep breath, Weiweian calmed herself down and asked, "Now that we've become suspicious, what should we do to clear ourselves of suspicion?"

"We?" Lilith tilted her head, smiled, and said, "I'm afraid you misunderstood. This is your business. What does it have to do with me?"

"What are you talking about?" Vivian's voice suddenly became sharp, and the other people in the cafe also looked over. But Vivian was completely oblivious. She stared straight at Lilith and said, "Do you want me to bear all this alone?!"

Lilith shrugged and said, "Although I really want to help you, you've messed with someone you shouldn't have. What can I do?"

Vivian grabbed Lilith's hand, her eyes furious, and said, "You can't do this! I helped you! Now that something's wrong, you can't just sit there and do nothing!"

Lilith looked at Vivian with a cold smile, "You help me? Did I ask you to do anything? I'm afraid you're thinking too much!"

Seeing that Lilith was about to leave her alone, Vivian said anxiously, "But it was you who asked me to get rid of Lin Yuqing. How could you say such a thing! You were the one who introduced me to the person disguised as a nurse!!"
