Chapter 983 Is Seventh Brother’s Kidney Fine?
Yang Shanshan thought for a long time but still couldn’t understand.
Xu Youning was not like Su Jian’an, the gentle, beautiful, generous, and elegant woman who ran her home well and was able to solve uncanny homicide cases.
Xu Youning was unlike Luo Xiaoxi, either. Luo Xiaoxi was not only beautiful and charming but was also supported by a strong family. She had a wide circle of friends and acquaintances that were beyond people’s imagination.
In comparison, Xu Youning was just an infamous spy who was trained by Kang Ruicheng.
Even if Mu Sijue didn’t care about these disparities, at least he should not ignore the fact that Xu Youning approached him with a purpose.
In Mu Sijue’s usual way, he would, after finding out Xu Youning’s identity as a spy, make her live a life worse than death even if he didn’t kill her. He would make her regret having deceived and betraying him.
But in fact, Mu Sijue ignored everything Xu Youning had done and only cared about her.
“Why was Xu Youning so attractive to him?”
In a fit of pique, Yang Shanshan turned her back on Mu Sijue and said reluctantly, “There’s nothing wrong with Xu Youning. She’s very arrogant! Oh, she said she was not afraid of me because I was no match for her! Now are you satisfied?”
Mu Sijue warned in a cold voice, “Shanshan, I want to hear the truth.”
“Believe it or not, I am telling the truth!” Yang Shanshan turned around and looked at Mu Sijue angrily, “Why did you take the knife for her? She’s your enemy and even lied to you. My killing her would have been considered a good deed for you!”
“Shanshan!” Mu Sijue glared at Yang Shanshan with a dark and gloomy face, “Have you thought about the consequences?”
Killing someone was nothing out of the extraordinary in Mu Sijue’s world.
However, in this dark world that others could not see, people got what they wanted at the expense of others’ blood and lives.
Yang Shanshan had grown up in a special environment, but she was just an ordinary person who lived in the sun. But she considered herself different from others because of the environment she was brought up in.
Mu Sijue thought that it was time to make her face reality.
Yang Shanshan was rarely questioned. In the face of Mu Sijue’s question, she just answered in a willful way without thinking, “I’m Yang Shanshan. I don’t need to think about the consequences! My father would deal with any trouble I cause. You are the only person that my father can’t do anything with!”
Mu Sijue’s face darkened. He looked at Yang Shanshan coldly and said, “I hope you will listen to my words carefully.”
Yang Shanshan snorted and said, “If you try to persuade me to give you up, then stop it...”
“Uncle Yang is sick. He has early stage liver cancer,” Mu Sijue interrupted Yang Shanshan and told her calmly, “I have settled him in a good hospital and found him a good doctor. As long as he cooperates with the doctor for his treatment, he may be cured. That’s why I allowed you to return home.”
Yang Shanshan’s eyes widened and she looked at Mu Sijue in disbelief. “You’re lying! I call my father every day, he’s just fine! She shouted.
“He doesn’t want you to worry about him,” Mu Sijue didn’t care whether Yang Shanshan could accept the fact or not and revealed the truth directly, “I’ve talked to Uncle Yang. Since you’re incapable of inheriting his businesses and resources, I will take over them and give him a corresponding compensation. Shanshan, your father is a patient now. He cannot shelter you from the wind and storm anymore.”
Yang Shanshan did not want to believe Mu Sijue. She kept shaking her head and begging Mu Sijue to tell her it was all false and Mu Sijue was just lying to her.
However, Mu Sijue didn’t correct himself.
Mu Sijue’s impassive and firm look told her that he was indeed telling the truth.
At this moment, Yang Shanshan suddenly understood some situations that she did not fathom before.
When she almost killed Xu Youning’s grandmother, Mu Sijue, in a fit of temper, ordered her to go to Country C and never return to City G.
Mu Sijue didn’t change his mind even though her father interceded for her.
As Mu Sijue considered her father as his elder, the Mu family and the Yang family did not have a falling-out.
However, the Yang family had to rely on Mu Sijue to run its business.
Therefore, Yang Shanshan had no choice but to leave City G at Mu Sijue’s command.
Her father said that when Mu Sijue cooled down, he would ask Mu Sijue to let her come home.
A few days ago, her father suddenly called her back.
She asked excitedly if it was because Mu Sijue was not mad at her anymore.
Her father hesitated for a while and told her what had happened between Xu Youning and Mu Sijue. At last, he reminded her euphemistically that she may have a chance to date Mu Sijue. But he couldn’t help her anymore. She had to do it by herself.
The words “may have a chance” gave Yang Shanshan a lot of motivation. She immediately packed her luggage and booked the next flight home.
Instead of returning to City G, she went straight to City A to find Mu Sijue.
During those days spent with Mu Sijue, she could feel that although Mu Sijue still didn’t like her, he was more patient with her. She thought this might be the “chance”.
But now it seemed that Mu Sijue treated her with patience out of pity.
Her father was sick and asked Mu Sijue to take care of her. That’s why Mu Sijue allowed her to come back.
Mu Sijue had mentioned what had happened after the charity dinner. She vaguely remembered that the man who spent the night with her was probably not Mu Sijue, but she had mistaken him for Mu Sijue.
She willfully asked Mu Sijue to take responsibility for her. But Mu Sijue just euphemistically reminded her to figure out what had happened that night.
At her father’s request, Mu Sijue had never mentioned her father’s illness.
But today, she tried to hurt Xu Youning with a knife, which was the last straw that broke Mu Siju’s back. At the end of his tether, Mu Sijue told her the cruel truth.
Her father had transferred everything to Mu Sijue. He was no longer the old Mr. Yang that everyone was afraid of. Then, who else could she rely on in the future?
At this time, the car slowly stopped and the driver reminded Mu Sijue, “Seventh Brother, we’re at the hospital.”
Mu Sijue looked at Yang Shanshan impassively and said, “Go and have a check-up. If everything is fine, you can leave the hospital and go anywhere you want. Shanshan, I don’t want you to waste your time on me.”
Yang Shanshan knew Mu Sijue was driving her away.
She looked at Mu Sijue with tears in her eyes and asked, “What about your injury?”
Mu Sijue responded coldly, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle it.”
After he said this, Mu Sijue opened the door and alighted without even looking back at Yang Shanshan.
For the first time, Yang Shanshan felt that there was a huge distance between herself and Mu Sijue.
Although she addressed him as Brother Sijue, yet she had never got close to his heart.
In this world, Xu Youning was the only one who had really gotten close to Mu Sijue and won his love.
However, what she cherished a lot was abandoned by Xu Youning.
Mu Sijue went to the surgery department to get his wound dressed.
The doctor tutted and shook his head, saying, “If the assailant did this on purpose, he was really vicious. If it had been merely an inch more, you’ll be...”
Mu Sijue glared daggers at the doctor. The doctor immediately stopped talking. He sutured Mu Sijue’s wound silently and carefully.
Tang Yulan had to undergo some examinations today. If everything was fine, she could be discharged.
Therefore, Su Jian’an came early with some food. After having breakfast with Tang Yulan, she brought her to have her tests done.
After finishing up the various tests, the attending doctor said with relief, “Mrs. Lu, the old lady can be discharged from the hospital.”
“Really? That’s great!” Su Jian’an smiled happily and said, “Thank you for all your care, doctor.”
Tang Yulan no longer needed the wheelchair. A walking stick was enough for her. Su Jian’an helped her back to the ward while discussing the discharge procedure with her on the way.
As soon as they arrived at the ward, a bodyguard stopped Su Jian’an and told her hesitantly, “Mrs. Lu, Seventh Brother... was injured.”
Su Jian’an was stunned. She settled Tang Yulan back to the bed and rushed to the surgery department with Xiao Yunyun.
Mu Sijue had just got his wound dressed and the doctor was cutting the thread.
As a doctor, Xiao Yunyun could tell at a glance that the wound was not deep. She turned to give Su Jian’an a reassuring look and said, “Don’t worry, it’s not serious.” However, when she noticed the position of the wound, her expression became complicated.
Su Jian’an asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
Xiao Yunyun didn’t answer Su Jian’an’s question. Instead, she bit her finger and asked the doctor, “Uh, have you taken an X-ray? Is my Seventh Brother’s kidney okay?”
The young doctor knew Xiao Yunyun. He couldn’t help smiling and showed her the X-ray and answered, “Don’t worry, his kidney is fine.”
Xiao Yunyun breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good,” she said.
Mu Sijue looked at Xiao Yunyun grimly and said, “Shut up.”
“Boss Mu, can you not be so mean?” Xiao Yunyun pointed to Mu Sijue’s wound and said, “I’m worried about your well-being for the rest of your life!”
The doctor cleaned the wound and warned Mu Sijue, “Mr. Mu, although your wound is not deep, it is not superficial either. You need to change the dressing in the next few days. Don’t let your wound come into contact with water or cause the wound to reopen. It will be very troublesome if it bleeds again.”
Xiao Yunyun burst into laughter. Mu Sijue shot her a sharp look. She quickly stopped talking and said, “Thank you, doctor. Let me walk you out.”
It was only after Xiao Yunyun went out that Su Jian’an asked, “Sijue, how did you get hurt? Where’s Yang Shanshan?”
Mu Sijue didn’t speak.
Su Jian’an suddenly had a bad feeling and ventured to ask, “Sijue, were you hurt by Yang Shanshan?”
Mu Sijue neither admitted it nor denied it.
After a while, he said slowly, “Jian’an, go find Shanshan and confirm something for me.”
Su Jian’an also wanted to know what had happened. So she nodded and said, “Sure. What’s it?”
Mu Sijue told Su Jian’an the whole incident about Xu Youning not avoiding Yang Shanshan’s attack. Then he continued, “I think there might be something wrong with Xu Youning. But Shanshan was the only person who knew the situation best. So I want you to find her and figure out what happened at that time.”
