Even hybrid monsters have their day

Her beautiful eyes were filled with sadness and disappointment, and even a little misty. "Peng Yuxian, I trusted you so much, and I almost risked my life to save you. Is this how you repay me? No, I didn't expect you to repay me, but you can't repay kindness with enmity."

"No, listen to me," Peng Yuxian tried anxiously to explain, "I really didn't..."

"I won't listen!" Geng Miaowan pointed to the door. "Leave right now, or I'll call for help!"

Peng Yuxian bent down and grabbed her shoulders. "Don't get agitated. Listen to me first. Those vampire things have nothing to do with me. It was Qiu Pi. It must have been Qiu Pi who did it. You have to believe me!"

Geng Miaowan couldn't break free. With a "smack," her hand slapped him mercilessly across the face, leaving five red finger marks on his fair skin.

Peng Yuxian stared at her in disbelief, his eyes seemingly spitting fire. "You hit me? You actually dared to hit me?"

Geng Miaowan hadn't expected to actually hit him, but since she'd already done it, there was nothing to be afraid of. She puffed out her chest, raised her chin, and said arrogantly, "Yes, so what if I hit you? I've never seen anyone as shameless as you, blaming everything on Mr. Qiu. If Mr. Qiu hadn't saved me, I would have died there long ago, and you're still falsely accusing him! I'm telling you, you get out of here right now. I never want to see you again. If you don't leave..."

As she spoke, she looked around, seemingly searching for something. But what could be in a hospital room? Finding nothing, she grabbed the pillow from behind her and threw it at Peng Yuxian. He easily dodged it. Still seemingly unsatisfied, she picked up a water glass from the table and threw it at his head. "If you don't leave, I'll get rough with you!"

Just then, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Xu Ruwen said as he walked in, "Wan'er, I'm back." Looking up, he saw Peng Yuxian standing in the doorway, holding a water glass. "What are you doing here?"

Then, a cold smile appeared on his face. "You actually dare to come here!"

Xu Ruwen finished speaking through gritted teeth. He then raised his hand to attack him. The sounds of their fight quickly attracted the attention of others in the hospital, but since it was Qiu Pi's private hospital and there weren't many patients, plus it was nighttime, only a few staff members rushed over.

Peng Yuxian seemed unwilling to escalate the situation, or perhaps he was afraid of alerting Qiu Pi and making it difficult to escape. So, while dealing with Xu Ruwen, he retreated towards the door, not forgetting to say to Geng Miaowan as he went, "I will come back to find you again, you must believe me!"

"Get out of here. If you dare come looking for me again, I'll kill you!"

Xu Ruwen had barely left after chasing Peng Yuxian when Qiu Pi rushed over, slightly out of breath, as if he had just found out and had run all the way there. He saw the mess in the room as soon as he entered and hurried to the bedside. "I just received news that Peng Yuxian caused trouble at the hospital. Are you alright?"

Geng Miaowan raised her head, her eyes red-rimmed, tears welling in her beautiful eyes. Combined with her delicate features, she looked aggrieved, yet also possessed a touching, tearful beauty.

Qiu Pi was slightly taken aback, but his eyes quickly regained their composure. He sat down on the edge of the bed and said gently, "Were you frightened?"

“Mr. Qiu…” As if she had finally found someone she could trust, the tears that had been welling up in Geng Miaowan’s eyes for so long finally slid down and dripped onto the quilt, disappearing without a trace.

Qiu Pi reached out and took her hand. "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Her hands were small, warm and soft, as if boneless, smooth and delicate, making him unable to resist gently kneading them a couple of times.

Geng Miaowan seemed completely oblivious to his actions, lost in her grief, murmuring, "I thought Peng Yuxian was a good person, but I never imagined he was so wicked. That night, he knew there were so many vampires and mutants following us, but he didn't tell us, and we almost all died."

As she spoke, she became agitated, her voice rising involuntarily, "You know, he actually said that you did all these things, how is that possible? Mingdan, you saved me! I think he's a really wicked person, once I recover, I will definitely not let him off the hook!"

Her bright eyes were filled with disdain and resentment towards Peng Yuxian.

Qiu Pi's face broke into that gentle smile again, as if nothing in the world could anger him or make him stop smiling. "I told you long ago that he's not a good person, and I warned you to stay away from him."

"I'm sorry..." She lowered her head in shame, her long hair falling over her shoulders and obscuring the expression on her face. "I should have listened to you sooner."

At this moment, Xu Ruwen returned, and Qiu Pi quickly withdrew his hand from Geng Miaowan's, but Xu Ruwen did not see this small action.

As soon as he entered the ward, he said in a fit of exasperation, "Damn it, he got away." Then, feeling a pang of resentment, he kicked a table leg and muttered, "Damn it!"

“Now that Peng Yuxian knows you’re here, he’ll definitely come to harass you again. I think it’s better if you move to my villa to recuperate. I can guarantee that Peng Yuxian will never be able to get in there.”

"Ah? That...that won't do...I..." Faced with Qiu Pi's suggestion, Geng Miaowan seemed flustered, or rather, flattered. "No, I've already troubled you so much these past few days...how can I go and stay at your villa again? No, no..."

Qiu Pi smiled slightly, "Why would you say it's troublesome between us? Anyway, my villa hasn't been lived in for a long time. Your visit will bring some life back to it."

"This...this is too much trouble, I..."

"Alright, it's settled then." Qiu Pi made the final decision. He stood up, looking like he was about to leave. "Then I'll have someone clean up right away, and you can move in as soon as it's light."

"Thank you, Mr. Qiu." Geng Miaowan looked at Qiu Pi with eyes full of gratitude.

Qiu Pi nodded, leaving with his unchanging, gentle smile. Before leaving, he reminded her to rest well, just like a kind and gentle older brother caring for his younger sister. (To be continued.)
