Chapter 6: Leaving Him His Best Chance
Mu Jinhang was pushed into the operating room, while everyone else waited outside.
“It’s all your fault! You’re the reason Mu Jinhang is hurt!” Qin Zhiruo cried, pointing an accusing finger at Qin Xi. “You’re a disaster, bringing misfortune to your parents and siblings. Now you’ve even put Mu Jinhang in the operating room fighting for his life. How can you show your face here!”
Mrs. Mu, hearing this, immediately glared at Qin Xi. “Get out! I don’t want to see you here anymore!”
“Qin Jie, don’t scare the child. Let me take you back,” a bodyguard said hurriedly, lowering his voice to avoid escalating the situation with Mrs. Mu.
Qin Xi pressed her lips tightly together, glancing down at the tense Ning Bao and then at the operating room. In the end, she chose to leave.
Back at the villa, Qin Xi couldn’t stop worrying about Mu Jinhang, skipping both lunch and dinner.
In truth, Qin Zhiruo was right; if it hadn’t been for her car that he had tried to block, Mu Jinhang wouldn’t have gotten into trouble.
Qin Xi felt overwhelming guilt, her heart aching as if pierced by needles.
Around nine o'clock in the evening, the butler informed her, “Qin Jie, the young master’s surgery was very successful; he has already woken up.”
“I want to see him,” Qin Xi said eagerly.
The butler shook his head. “The young master is still not out of danger and needs close observation for now. The old master has sent people to guard the ward day and night; they won’t let you in.”
Qin Xi couldn’t sleep all night.
The next day, she insisted on going to the hospital. Even if she couldn’t go in to see Mu Jinhang, just catching a glimpse of him from outside the ward would be enough.
The result happened to coincide with the Mu Family Patriarch.
“If I were you, I would leave Ning Cheng right now; this is the best opportunity,” Mu Laoyezai said, his gaze sharp as he fixed it on her.
Clearly, he was well aware of what Mu Jinhang had done.
Qin Xi was taken aback. “I…”
Indeed, now was the best time to leave Mu Jinhang. As long as she returned to France, no matter how powerful Mu Jinhang was, he couldn't reach her there, and Ji Li was already in France.
But thinking about how Mu Jinhang had been injured because of her made it hard for Qin Xi to summon the resolve to leave.
Mu Laoyezai noticed her hesitation and said in a deep voice, “Even if you don’t want to go, you have to. I won’t allow you to stay by Mu Jinhang’s side; you two are not suited for each other.”
One of the people beside him handed a bag to Qin Xi.
“Inside, there’s a check and two tickets to France. The car is waiting outside; go back and gather your documents and passport, and take that child with you.”
“I can’t leave at this moment!” Qin Xi clenched her fists. “I want to wait until his period of danger has passed. By then, I won’t need your tickets or check; I’ll return to France on my own.”
“That’s not up to you,” Mu Laoyezai said firmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, two burly men stepped forward to grab Qin Xi.
“Wait!” Mu Jinhang's secretary rushed over and quickly intervened upon seeing the scene.
“Grandfather, you should know how Mu Zong has been these past five years. He searched for Qin Xi for a whole five years, and just when he finally found her, you send her away with a single word. I’m afraid that when Mu Zong finds out, it will create a rift between you two.”
“He dares to defy me, his grandfather, over a woman?” Mu Laoyezai exclaimed angrily, striking his cane against the floor.
The secretary was about to speak when the door to the hospital room suddenly swung open, and a deep, cold voice rang out: “Grandfather, how do you know I wouldn’t dare!”
Mu Laoyezai’s expression changed.
Qin Xi saw Mu Jinhang sitting in a wheelchair and rushed over in surprise and concern. “Mu Jinhang, how are you? Are you okay? Do you feel dizzy?”
“Let her go,” Mu Jinhang said coldly, glaring at the man holding Qin Xi.
The man looked towards Mu Laoyezai.
After a long silence, the old man finally sighed heavily. “Fine, you’re my only grandson. Do as you wish.”
But he would never allow Qin Xi to become a daughter-in-law of the Mu Family!
