"He is innocent; he was just doing someone else's bidding."
"Can you not hurt him?"
Shu Ran pleaded with him softly, thinking that by lowering herself to such a degree, Qin Xian would show a bit of mercy. She couldn't expect him to truly let Xu Yan Ying go, but at least she hoped he would restrain himself a little and not take Xu Yan Ying's life.
Qin Xian slightly raised his chin, his expression extremely calm, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
Shu Ran could clearly feel his mood shift from sunny to stormy, yet she still stubbornly continued to plead, "Qin Xian, senior..."
Before she could finish her sentence, he suddenly grasped her chin. His deep-set eyes focused intently on her, an overwhelming sense of pressure enveloping the air around them.
He finally spoke slowly, each word dripping with a chilling tone. "Take back your words. From now on, do not mention him in front of me."
Shu Ran shook her head. "Qin Xian, you can't be so unreasonable."
This matter was clearly his fault; why did he act so self-righteous about it?
His brother killed someone; murder should be met with the appropriate legal consequences.
Xu Yan Ying was dissatisfied with his actions and accepted the victim's family's request to seek justice for them.
Where was the fault in that?
How could he use his power to oppress others?
Qin Xian laughed in anger and coldly retorted, "Do you think I am unreasonable?"
If it were someone else, Qin Xian could not guarantee that she would walk out of here alive.
"Did he not tell you that a rich second-generation heir kidnapped a girl and killed His Father? After the deed was done, he escaped and used his influence to prevent the police from intervening, destroying all evidence?"
Shu Ran looked up at him and said harshly, "Isn't that the case?"
When she heard Xu Yan Ying talk about these things, she still held a skeptical attitude.
However, when she saw that Leather Bag, she had already discarded all those doubts, leaving only complete belief.
If Qin Xian had done nothing wrong, why did he give him that Leather Bag? Why did he want to kill to silence?
Isn't that so?
Shu Ran believed it; Shu Ran believed what her senior said.
Shu Ran did not believe him.
Ha.
Qin Xian felt as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water, feeling icy and disheveled, devoid of any warmth.
He let out a cold laugh, his aura fierce and sinister, his tone strange as he said, "Don't regret it."
In the next moment, he lifted her off the ground again. This time, it was different from before; it was filled with a romantic tenderness.
His movements were almost rough and violent, disregarding her struggles and the panic in her eyes.
This Qin Xian felt so unfamiliar.
Just like the scene she had witnessed hiding behind the wall that morning, sending chills down her spine.
He held her in his arms and descended directly from the 22nd floor to the ground level, ignoring the curious and astonished gazes of those around them.
He placed her into the car that was already waiting downstairs and instructed Chen Jin in a low voice from the driver's seat, "Drive to the hospital."
Throughout the journey, the car was filled with the low pressure emanating from the man beside her, as if it could explode at any moment.
Shu Ran had been sulking silently since he carried her to the car.
She didn't know where her anger came from today; she just clashed with Qin Xian, refusing to back down at all.
Chen Jin drove quietly, not daring to say a word or even exchange glances.
Yet inside, he secretly admired Shu Ran for managing to provoke Qin Xian into such a state while remaining completely unscathed.
One thing overcomes another.
The car sped through the awkward atmosphere and arrived at the city center hospital fifteen minutes later.
After getting out of the car, Shu Ran was firmly held by his hand as they headed straight to the VIP ward on the third floor.
Shu Ran had no idea what he was bringing her to the hospital for, and she didn't dare to ask. Qin Xian also didn't explain anything and continued walking with a dark expression.
Finally, their footsteps stopped in front of the door of VIP ward number 3.
Chen Jin stepped forward and gently knocked on the door. After receiving permission to enter from inside, he leaned in to open the door for them.
At this point, Qin Xian released his tight grip on her hand, not giving her a glance as he walked into the ward with a cold face.
Shu Ran glanced at him and silently followed him inside.
"Brother, why are you here?" "Qin Shao."
As soon as they stepped through the door, a young male voice rang out, seemingly accompanied by a familiar crisp female voice from behind.
Shu Ran took two steps further inside in confusion, and suddenly a figure appeared right in front of her, almost colliding with her.
Before Shu Ran could clearly see who it was, the person spoke first, surprised, "Shu Ran?"
“Lu Qisheng?”
The two of them almost spoke in unison, “What are you doing here?”
Shu Ran looked through him, confused as she glanced at Qin Xian sitting inside the hospital room.
Xu Yan Ying said that Lu Qisheng was kidnapped by some so-called rich second generation, so how could she appear here perfectly fine?
Moreover, Shu Ran noticed that although there were some bruises on her face and her neck bore a wound that had been treated, her expression and vibrant demeanor did not resemble that of someone who had been kidnapped.
What was going on?
As both of them stood there in a daze, Chen Jin lightly coughed and explained, “Miss Lu, Miss Shu thought you were kidnapped.”
Lu Qisheng exclaimed, “Huh? Kidnapped? Who told you that?”
Before Shu Ran could respond, she tilted her head and said knowingly, “Oh, I see. You must have seen those trending rumors online about a rich second generation kidnapping a girl and killing Her Father.”
Shu Ran anxiously asked, “What exactly is going on? Lu Qisheng, did your father really die?”
“He died,” Lu Qisheng replied calmly. “I killed him.”
"What?!"
"This is a long story," she glanced back at the person in the hospital room and then turned to say, "Just wait a moment."
She hurried back into the hospital room. Shu Ran stood there, her mind filled with confusion, her thoughts a chaotic mess.
Did she misunderstand something?
Shu Ran took a step forward, following her. She wanted to know who was in this hospital room and what was really going on.
She saw Lu Qisheng leaning close to the bed, speaking softly to the person lying there, his movements casual and affectionate.
Shu Ran leaned in to get a better look at the person in the bed, trying to figure out who he was.
In the next moment, the person suddenly turned his head and looked at her, smiling as he called out, "Sister-in-law."
Shu Ran froze, her pupils dilating rapidly. This person...
Before she had gotten together with Qin Xian, there was an occasion when he had forced her to accompany him for a meal at this person's restaurant.
He seemed to be Qin Xian's younger brother.
