Chapter 1986: You Two Really Are of One Mind

~8 min read 1,401 words

In Sun Qing's plan, Wei Baba was supposed to lose his life.

Wei Yangyang and Li Xingyan were also supposed to hate each other.

But the result... not only was Wei Baba perfectly fine, but Wei Yangyang and Li Xingyan were even embracing each other!

Sun Qing could not accept this!

Yet the only way she could vent at this moment was to thrash about like a worm.

"Stop struggling; you've lost."

Wei Yangyang glanced at Sun Qing and said these words in a flat tone.

Yet this simple sentence seemed to drain all the strength from Sun Qing's body.

She slumped on the floor, and all that was spinning in her mind were the three words, "You've lost."

Wei Yangyang really did not want to tangle with Sun Qing any longer.

She withdrew her gaze and said to Li Xingyan, "As for her, let's just handle it according to the law."

Li Xingyan understood, then nodded to his subordinates, and the two subordinates took the dispirited Sun Qing and left the hospital room.

The doctor saw there was nothing left for him to do here and had originally intended to leave as well.

But upon seeing the wound on Wei Yangyang's lip, he kindly reminded her, "Would you like to have that treated?"

Wei Yangyang had originally not wanted to pay any mind to this wound.

But Li Xingyan said, "How should it be treated?"

"Disinfect it, stop the bleeding, and then apply some ointment. Here, I'll have a nurse come help."

"Many thanks."

Not long after the doctor left, a nurse with a round face walked in.

As soon as she saw the wound on Wei Yangyang's lip, she exclaimed in surprise, "How did you bite it so hard? If you had used any more force, you would have bitten the flesh right off!"

Wei Yangyang had been anxious just now and had no idea how much force she had used.

At this moment, as the nurse helped treat the wound, that stinging pain reminded Wei Yangyang of how cruel everything that had just happened was.

She... had almost not been able to see this world anymore.

And she had almost not been able to see Li Xingyan again.

Thinking of this, Wei Yangyang looked at Li Xingyan.

Li Xingyan was also looking at her, his brows tightly furrowed, as if he were the one enduring the pain.

In reality, Li Xingyan actually wished he were the one who had been injured.

He dared not imagine what would have happened to Wei Yangyang if he had arrived a moment later...

Li Xingyan unconsciously clenched his palms, and the expression on his face was filled with ferocity.

Wei Yangyang could feel his anger.

But strangely, even though Wei Yangyang knew Li Xingyan was furious, she was no longer afraid as she had been in the past, nor did she want to find a way to hide.

On the contrary...

Wei Yangyang said to the nurse, "I'll apply this ointment myself; I won't hold you up."

"Alright, if you feel uncomfortable, come find me."

Wei Yangyang replied and took the ointment.

Afterward, she took out a small mirror and prepared to apply the ointment while looking into it.

"Let me help you."

Li Xingyan very naturally took the ointment and a cotton swab, squeezed out a little, and gently wiped it onto the wound.

Wei Yangyang kept her lips slightly parted and tried to keep them still while speaking: "Why have you suddenly become so fierce?"

"Am I fierce?"

"Yes, whenever you used to scold me, you had this expression."

"I am indeed wanting to scold someone, but not you."

To be precise, Li Xingyan... was going to deal with someone!

Li Xingyan's thoughts were in turmoil, and he failed to control his hand strength for a moment, pressing down on Wei Yangyang's wound, which made her let out a hiss of pain.

"Sorry."

Li Xingyan dared not let his mind wander again and began to apply the ointment carefully.

When he had finished applying it all, Wei Yangyang looked into the mirror to check...

And she burst out laughing.

These greasy, shiny lips really looked like a sausage!

Seeing this, Li Xingyan could not help but say, "You can still laugh."

"I'm still alive, my father is safe, and we've found the real culprit behind the harm to our family; why shouldn't I laugh?"

Wei Yangyang's answer was very clear-headed.

But Li Xingyan could not be so clear-headed.

He lowered his eyes and said self-reproachfully, "I'm sorry, it's all because of me that this unprovoked disaster was brought upon your family."

If he hadn't been concerned about the friendship between the two families' elders, he wouldn't have left Sun Qing as a hidden danger.

When it all came down to it, it was all Li Xingyan's fault!

And Wei Yangyang thought the same.

She even looked Li Xingyan up and down and said, "They say a beautiful face is a disaster; it is truly so."

Li Xingyan reacted for a moment before he understood what Wei Yangyang meant.

Immediately, a look of helplessness appeared on his face: "Then should I be happy that you acknowledge my good looks?"

"If it can make you smile and stop wearing such a straight face, you can understand it that way."

Li Xingyan actually smiled.

Immediately after, he felt helpless again.

Today was clearly the day Wei Yangyang encountered danger.

Yet in the end, how did it turn into her comforting someone else?

Li Xingyan thought it over and decided that he was just not very good at comforting people.

So, he made a suggestion: "How about I have Tiantian keep you company?"

Wei Yangyang was already sitting by her father's side.

She tucked in the corner of the blanket for Wei Baba, then said, "No need, my mother will be here in a while."

"Then... are you going to tell your aunt about this?"

"I have to say something; the commotion from just now requires an explanation for my mother."

Sun Qing was shouting in the hospital room, and the two of them were struggling by the window; it likely disturbed quite a few people.

So, it couldn't be kept hidden.

It was just that Wei Yangyang could choose a tactful way to describe it, so as not to frighten Wei Mama.

Just as Wei Yangyang was bowing her head in thought, Li Xingyan volunteered: "I can help you explain."

"No need, I can do it by myself."

"But my presence represents a sense of security; I believe your aunt will feel more at ease seeing me."

This sounded a bit like bragging.

But Wei Yangyang knew that Li Xingyan was telling the truth.

Places where Li Xingyan was present did indeed make people feel at ease.

So...

Wei Yangyang finally agreed to Li Xingyan's suggestion.

It was just that before they could wait for Wei Mama, they waited for Jiang Motian first.

Jiang Motian had come to the Hospital with Li Xingyan.

It was just that when she was parking, she accidentally scraped another car, so it took some time to handle.

She didn't expect that in the time she was delayed...

The matter had already been resolved!!

Jiang Motian listened to Wei Yangyang describe the course of events and couldn't help but feel terrified.

But at the same time, she was also impressed that the two of them were so composed.

Especially her brother; Jiang Motian had thought he really had a rift with Wei Yangyang and even specifically comforted him a few times.

Yet not once did she notice anything unusual...

This made Jiang Motian unable to help but complain a little: "You two are something else; you planned it beforehand but didn't tell me, making me worry for nothing!"

"We didn't plan it beforehand."

Jiang Motian was stunned.

Then she confirmed: "No plan?"

Wei Yangyang nodded earnestly and said, "Xingyan lent me a case study book a while ago that had a similar case introduced, so I thought, why not play along with their scheme."

After hearing this, Jiang Motian looked at Li Xingyan: "Then how did you know Yangyang was playing along?"

"The way she looked at me."

"You knew what she was thinking from just one look!? Brother, I'm afraid you don't even understand me this well! Tsk tsk, you two really have a telepathic connection."
