Chapter 719 - Even if I am dead.

Pan Hong at once shot up from his seat. "What did you say? Where did Shaoqing go?" he asked, his pupils getting dilated in horror.

"Boss, earlier when received the news of Qi Shuai getting better, Shaoqing said he will be going alone to handle the things. After that, he left. We even tried to stop him but he didn't listen to any one of us."

"No, this is bad. This is bad. This boy is off to mess things more". Pan Hong mumbled under his breath as his fingers frustratingly went to skim on his own hair while the other hand rested on his waist.

Zhen Qinrou, who was still sitting on the side smirked as she slowly and slowly sipped more of her drink, enjoying the flavor well on her tongue. "Didn't I say that already? We can't decide the future, especially the fated one. And in this life Pan Hong, you are bound to help me achieve my d.e.s.i.r.es. Even if you disagree, your disagreement won't help in any way." She said as a smile of achievement got over her lips. A prideful one!

Pan Hong heard her and his fingers clenched on his sides to hold within the rage he was feeling in his heart. "RuoRuo, this is not the time to talk about all that. Don't begin it now." He forced his voice to come out as a request, still not intending to hurt the woman in any way.

Then turning back to his man he asked him again. "When did Shaoqing leave? Did he say anything to you guys?"

The man shook his head in denial. "Boss, he didn't give us much time to ask him anything. He just left saying his words half an hour before."

"Half an hour before? He left so early, why am I only getting to learn it now? Were you guys dead all this time?" The man snarled, already losing the calm of his nerves. His brows, wrinkling in concern while his eyes searching for a way to help in the situation. He has always considered Jing Shaoqing to be like his son. Being able to see him since childhood by his side, it was him who has brought him up to his youth. There was no way he would let him become a scapegoat of his useless heart story.

His eyes darted to look at the woman for once, without intending any meaning to her. Zhen Qinrou looked at him and shrugged her shoulders off. "What? Why are you looking at me like that? I can't be like you. Panicking over something that's worth nothing. So don't expect something like that from me, dear". She said as she again bent a little forward to pour another glass of wine.

At her such heartless attitude, Pan Hong could not help but grit his teeth in disappointment. Not saying anything to her for the moment, he turned to give the order to his man, "Prepare the car, we will at moment leave for Chiboa's City Hospital."

"But Boss, there are men looking for us. We might get …" The person tried to say something but he was harshly rebuked instead.

"Do I have to repeat my words now? Just go and do as I have asked you to" He sneered and immediately the man left to proceed with the orders for execution. Once he left, Pan Hong turned again to stare at the woman, making his words and intentions very much clear to her understanding.

"RuoRuo, how can you be like this? Did you really forget to value the people around you? Hearing you right now, I no longer could have the confidence if you are the same woman for which I have fallen. How could you be this heartless" He said, shaking his head before taking his coat from the side to leave.

Zhen Qinrou's fingers clenched on her glass as the words came out from the grit of her teeth. "Pan Hong, don't go. Don't stop it from happening."

The man's steps paused but not his intentions. "RuoRuo, I have already made my words clear enough to you. Enjoy your time here but don't be late to return home. Your husband would be waiting for you there".

"Pan Hong, your words … Does that mean you are going back on your promise?" The woman asked again, halting the man in his tracks. Her voice, a bit hesitant to hear his reply, feeling that the promise was at the brink of breaking.

At her fear and hesitation, Pan Hong could not help but chuckle out, turning on his heels to once again face the lady. His eyes had a kind of disdainful emotion for her. "You still care for that, RuoRuo?"

"Pan Hong, I need to ask, seeing you like this. You know …"

The man didn't let her complete it. Nodding, he interrupted, "Exactly, I know, RuoRuo. I have always known you the best, but could never bring myself to believe it. Anyway, let's not drag this topic further. You don't have to worry, even if today I will be dead, I will try my best to help you with the promise I made you in the past."

The meaning behind his words was all clear and was delivered well to the woman. Zhen Qinrou's fingers clenched realizing what he actually meant. Her eyes got a little tearful, regretting her words from earlier. "I didn't mean that. Your safety is of course important for me, Pan Hong. Please …"

"You don't need to explain, RuoRuo. Just relax and wait at your home. Whatever happens, you will surely get the news". He said for the last time, before strolling out of the room without looking back".

Behind left the woman whose expression didn't look anything but one like – she has lost the most important support of her life.

Feng Yi Lan stared at the man lying on the bed helplessly. Her eyes were already swollen enough to tell how much she has cried in the last twenty-four hours.

"Doctor, it's already twenty-four hours. Now could you please be clear to tell us how he is? Are there still any complications or …" She asked, feeling anxious seeing the doctors checking in silence for a good time now.
