Han Qing frowned as he glanced at Yan. He was surprised to discover that she had heard his conversation with the phone. Should I bring her along? Inside him, he rejected the idea. “Aren’t you staying with Muzi?”
Yan froze while biting her lower lip. “Muzi has Miss Su with her. I want to know… if that person they found is Young Master Ye or not.”
Han Qing pressed his lips for a while before opening his mouth. “The news I got is that they have found someone, but I’m not sure if he is dead or not, so please don’t say anything to anyone.”
“Don’t worry!” Yan hurriedly raised both her hands to show a gesture of confirmation. “I will not simply say a word out. I’m just going over to have a look.”
“Let’s go then,” Han Qing spoke in a cold voice and walked in front of her.
In response, Yan followed quietly behind him. She followed Han Qing into the car, but maybe because of her nervousness, she bumped her head onto the car door. The sound of the collision was huge as Yan saw stars flying around her eyes. Then, she took a few steps back before she sat on the cold floor.
Han Qing saw the scene just as and when he turned his head over. He immediately frowned at her, but there were no movements from his hands as he just sat there.
Yan was suddenly embarrassed of herself, so she quickly got up and clapped away the dust on her palms. At the end, she went back into the car while pretending that nothing had happened.
“I was just thinking of something, which was why…” She trailed off when she realized Han Qing’s face was cold and devoid of any warmth or concern. “Sit down and be quiet.”
Yan remained silent and she did not dare to utter a word, even preventing herself from breathing heavily. She only straightened her body quietly while looking forward. I’m so stupid. Not only is this matter important to Han Qing, it is also important to me. I shouldn’t act so silly. All of a sudden, Yan felt that she was a bit annoying.
As the car moved, the atmosphere inside sank into deep silence. Yan thought about the things that the man on the phone told Han Qing earlier. What happened to Young Master Ye? I really hope to see him soon. If I can see that he is safe, then Muzi wouldn’t be depressed anymore. Please, God! You must ensure that Ye Moxuan is safe. Muzi’s body is already in bad shape and she is also pregnant, so she can’t handle this kind of suffering any longer. Yan put her palms together in her heart and continuously prayed.
After what seemed like an eternity, the car finally stopped. Yan popped her head out of the car to have a look, but Han Qing said to her coldly, “Get down the car.”
Yan was scared by his voice, so she quickly opened the door. This time, she was careful with her movements to ensure that she did not bump her head onto the car door again. When both of her feet safely landed on the ground, she let out a sigh of relief.
A flat-headed man guarded the gate and he kept on looking in their direction. He spotted Han Qing and came over in a flash. “President Han, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for so long.”
Han Qing frowned his eyebrows and spoke to him coldly, “Where is he?”
The flat-headed man had a look at Yan behind Han Qing before returning his attention and answering softly, “He is inside, President Han. Follow me.”
Han Qing kept up to him while Yan followed suit like a bug trailing something. “When we found him, he was covered in wounds. Even his face was filled with them.”
Han Qing stopped in his steps. The reason why he did not tell Han Muzi the news immediately was because he was worried that they might have found the wrong person or a body, causing Muzi to be sad for nothing. That was why he felt it was better for him, as her brother, to come forward and assess the situation before thinking of a plan. While they drove over to the site, Han Qing kept quiet for the whole duration because he was thinking about something. If what they found was a body, then he would make the quick decision by disposing the body without her knowledge and pretending that this never happened. For his little sister, he did not mind being the bad guy.
However, when he heard the words of the man leading them, he felt relieved. The man did not stutter when reporting to him, which meant that the person was at least alive. As for the wounds on his face…
“Is the injury serious?”
“It’s exactly that. The injury is too serious. I assumed that he landed on a barren hill not far from here, and when he fell, he was presumably scratched by twigs or even slashed by pointy rocks because there is a deep cut on his face and a lot of wounds on him. His injuries looked too serious and we were afraid to let him die, so we sent him to the nearest clinic here.”
“You all did well.” Han Qing nodded and gave him a seal of approval.
After he was praised by Han Qing, the flat-headed man suddenly became pleased with himself. “Thank you for your praise, President Han. I was the one who came up with the idea because I saw that he was losing a lot of blood. Coincidentally, I knew of this clinic near the site, so I made the quick decision by sending him over here.”
“Alright,” Han Qing replied.
Meanwhile, at the back, Yan felt terrible after hearing his words. According to this flat-headed man, does he mean that there is a serious injury on Young Master Ye’s face? Will that leave a scar in the future?
This caused Yan to forget about Han Qing’s warning—which was keeping her mouth closed—and asked straight away, “Is the wound on his face serious? What did the doctor say? Will it leave any scars?”
Her words hit the nail on the point. At first, the flat-headed man was pleased with himself, but after hearing her words, his face drooped. “The doctor has checked on him and said that his wound is too serious, so it will definitely leave scars.”
“What?” Yan cried out in shock. “How could this happen? If there are scars on his face, doesn’t that mean…” Muzi will definitely feel distressed after knowing about this.
Her cries drew the attention of the flat-headed man as he answered her with discontent, “There was nothing else we could have done. It’s fortunate enough for him to still be alive after such a serious injury. It’s not realistic to hope that there won’t be scars.”
“But the scars should not have been on the face.” Yan felt distressed for Han Muzi. If the scars are on his body, then he can use a shirt to cover it. But how can he cover the scars on his face? She felt saddened for the two of them the more she thought about his scars. In a daze, she lowered her head, not noticing that someone had stopped in front of her. Therefore, she bumped her head into the person without warning.
Thud! Yan felt the pain on her forehead as she backed off a few steps. When she lifted her head, she could see Han Qing staring at her coldly. He pressed his lips with an unhappy expression. “What are you doing?”
Yan shook her head while holding her painful forehead as a result of the collision. “I’m sorry.”
Then, Han Qing turned away.
“President Han, the wounded person is right in there. The hospital urged us not to let too many people in, so I won’t follow you two inside. I’ll just stay here and wait.”
“Alright.” Han Qing nodded before lifting his head and opening the door to enter.
