Chapter 594

Zhang Tezhu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing it was only a few minutes.

He closed the room door securely.

He stood outside the door.

He called the family doctor and explained Qiao's situation. After listening, the family doctor laughed and said, "There won't be any issues. Isn't Shu Xia almost there? Shu Xia is more effective than medicine. Instead of worrying about Qiao, you should think about how to deal with the person who harmed him."

Zhang Tezhu was adept at handling such matters.

In the past, when Qiao encountered such things, the family doctor would come to resolve them, but every time, Qiao would have to endure a period of torment.

Fortunately, there is Shu Xia now!

After waiting less than a few minutes, Shu Xia finally arrived.

"What's the situation?" Shu Xia asked.

Zhang Tezhu didn't have time to explain much; Qiao might still be taking a cold shower right now. He opened the room door and, while pushing Shu Xia inside, said briefly, "Qiao has been drugged again."

"What?"

Before Shu Xia's startled voice had even faded, she was pushed directly inside by Zhang Tezhu.

As the door behind her closed, Shu Xia walked inside step by step. The sound of water came from the bathroom, and her heartbeat quickened.

Qiao Muting had been drugged; she knew very well what role she would play after being called here.

The bathroom door was half-ajar.

It was easy to imagine how urgent Qiao Muting must have been when he went in to take a shower.

She gently pushed the door open.

There wasn't a trace of steam inside.

There was even a wave of cold air hitting her.

Was Qiao Muting taking a cold shower?

Within her line of sight stood Qiao Muting, his figure superior and tall under the showerhead.

As his eyes, radiating coldness, swept over, Shu Xia saw him even more clearly.

His straight, tall, and imposing figure, his noble and cold face, and his muscles—clearly visible all over his body, perfectly proportioned, and exuding an aura of pheromones—every part of him had a lethal appeal to women.

It was just that his eyes emitted a coldness capable of freezing someone to death; he was like a king standing on a mountain peak, looking down upon all living things.

"Shen Anran?"

The man's voice was severely hoarse, yet incredibly sexy.

But hearing it in Shu Xia's ears made her expression turn cold.

"Shen Anran?"

She suddenly remembered that when she was parking earlier, she seemed to have seen Shen Anran, accompanied by a middle-aged man and woman who looked like Shen Anran's parents.

However, the three of them were in a hurry, and she was also in a rush to see Qiao Muting, so she hadn't thought much of it.

But at this moment...

For Qiao Muting to call out Shen Anran's name at a time like this, could it be that he likes Shen Anran?

If he likes her, why was he so cold to Shen Anran before? And why did he even take action against the Shen Family? Could there be some entanglement in all this?

Since Qiao Muting wants Shen Anran the most at this moment, there is no need for her to stay here.

Moreover, a name blurted out at a time like this is definitely someone he holds in his heart.

"I'll go call Shen Anran; you wait a few minutes."

Shen Anran had just left the hotel; if she called now, it would only take a few minutes for her to rush back.

Shu Xia was just about to fish her phone out of her bag.
