Chapter 927: Driven Away by Li Xiao

The atmosphere was inexplicably "tense."

And also somewhat amusing.

After a long moment—Mu Liusu finally withdrew his gaze calmly and let out a cold snort in his heart.

Forget it.

He couldn't be bothered to argue.

Nor was he in the mood to watch people "flaunt their affection" here.

There was still a mountain of matters waiting for him to handle.

"I'm leaving first, Xiao Tang, you stay here."

As Mu Liusu said this, he turned to leave, but after taking a step, he suddenly stopped, turned back, and urged: "Remember to rest more. There are doctors here, and there are people guarding outside. If you need anything, just call out; you don't need to run around yourself."

He deliberately emphasized the word "yourself."

After finishing, he left without looking back.

After everyone had left, only three people remained in the room.

Luo Wanwan stood to one side, still not wanting to leave, looking troubled.

Thinking of what Cai Xiaotang had said to her and Li Xiao's current attitude, she couldn't help but feel annoyed.

She didn't want Cai Xiaotang and Li Xiao to be alone together...

Cai Xiaotang's attitude was so arrogant, and Li Xiao didn't want to let go of Cai Xiaotang; if the two of them kept spending time together, wouldn't their feelings be rekindled?

No.

She couldn't rest easy.

She had to find a way.

Just as Luo Wanwan was thinking, she heard—"Are you not going back yet?"

Li Xiao's voice suddenly sounded in her direction.

Luo Wanwan snapped back to reality, looking at Li Xiao in surprise.

He... was he driving her away?

How could Li Xiao drive her away?

Luo Wanwan felt a sense of disbelief in her heart.

Where exactly had things gone wrong?

She had already confessed her identity to Li Xiao and had kept almost nothing from him.

The previous incidents also had "unavoidable" reasons.

Why was Li Xiao acting like he wanted to draw a line between them now?

"I..."

Luo Wanwan opened her mouth, unwilling to leave just like that, and could only bring up the past again: "About Linke, I am truly sorry... it was my people..."

"Mu Liusu will follow up on this matter, and hasn't the car that caused the collision already been inspected?"

Li Xiao interrupted her directly before Luo Wanwan could finish.

His tone was that of "there is no need to talk about this anymore."

Luo Wanwan's eyes flickered for a moment, feeling hurt by Li Xiao's attitude.

Then, thinking of something, she suddenly put on a sorrowful expression.

"Li Xiao, you are still angry with me, aren't you? Angry that I acted without authorization and sent people to save Xiao Tang..."

Cai Xiaotang was stunned upon hearing this, looking at Luo Wanwan in instant surprise.

What was that?

Had she heard correctly?

Luo Wanwan sent people to save her?

How could that be...

"The matter is already over."

Li Xiao did not comment on this, merely repeating it calmly once more.

He was indeed still angry.

If they hadn't arrived in time today, who knew where Linke would have taken Xiao Tang by now!

Furthermore, there were too many things about Luo Wanwan that didn't add up.

How could her people have so coincidentally knocked Linke off the mountain?

Everything that happened throughout the day had to do with her.

Li Xiao frowned slightly; having just woken up, he was unable to engage in overly complex thinking.

And besides...

Xiao Tang was still here.

He didn't want to affect her mood because of Luo Wanwan anymore.

The air was somewhat quiet.

Li Xiao and Cai Xiaotang both remained silent, seemingly waiting together for Luo Wanwan to leave.

No matter how thick-skinned Luo Wanwan was, faced with Li Xiao's attitude, she couldn't stay any longer and could only turn away unwillingly.

"Then I'll go first, you get some good rest..."

She left behind one last sentence, wearing her "heartbreak" on her face, still holding a sliver of hope in her heart.

She hoped Li Xiao would stop her and say that he didn't blame her for today's events.

It was a pity, until the door closed.

Li Xiao did not say a single word to ask her to stay.

Luo Wanwan managed to greet Lao San and Lao Wu outside, and soon, she disappeared into the corridor.

Not until she returned to her car did she suddenly slam a fist against the steering wheel!

That damned bitch Cai Xiaotang!

She just wanted to cling to Li Xiao's side!

Seeing Li Xiao treat her with that attitude just now, that bitch must be thrilled, right?

Heh...

She would wait...

Wait!

It wouldn't be long now; she would definitely torture her to death!

Luo Wanwan took one last look at the Hospital building, her eyes full of malice.

Upstairs—inside the ward, there were finally only Cai Xiaotang and Li Xiao left.

Cai Xiaotang had originally been comforting herself that she was just taking care of a wounded person.

But for some reason, she felt inexplicably nervous at this moment, not knowing what to do.

Li Xiao had just woken up...

He should just stay and rest, right?

Then what about her?

Just as Cai Xiaotang was thinking this, she suddenly felt a light tickle on the back of her hand.

She snapped back to reality and realized that her hand was still being gripped in someone's palm.

"You..."

Cai Xiaotang instantly pulled her hand back, the expression on her face somewhat awkward.

Although it had only been a few short days since they last met, but...

It felt as if a long time had passed.

And during their last conversation before she was kidnapped, she had proposed to him...

Divorce.

Thinking of what happened before, Cai Xiaotang's heart couldn't help but ache with bitterness again.

Immediately after, she felt her fingertips being pinched again.

Li Xiao's unique voice, carrying a hint of a smile and a touch of coquettishness, followed.

"Still angry with me?"

Cai Xiaotang's gaze flickered for a moment, and she did not speak.

She had long since stopped being angry.

Having almost lost her life, who would still care about those petty jealousies from before?

What's more...

Luo Wanwan had already "laid her cards on the table."

Although she did not like the other woman.

She had to admit that she was right.

She was indeed a burden to Li Xiao.

If this continued.

Such things would definitely happen again, and more than once.

The experience of personally wounding him with a knife—she never wanted to go through that a second time in this life!

Cai Xiaotang subconsciously looked at her own hand.

The sensation from that moment seemed to have been permanently imprinted in her mind.

She then noticed some bloodstains in her palm that hadn't been wiped clean and subconsciously wanted to pull her hand away.

But she had only just moved—when Li Xiao's entire palm clamped down, directly interlocking his fingers with hers.

"Let go, my... hands are dirty."

Cai Xiaotang's heart trembled violently, and she deliberately kept a straight face to remind him.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Li Xiao raise an eyebrow, pull her hand to his lips, and kiss it lightly.

"Where is it dirty?"

He asked back with a raised eyebrow, wearing an expression that said, "I want to kiss you, what are you going to do about it?"

Cai Xiaotang: "..."

This...

Can this guy have some self-awareness as a patient!

Is he still this flirtatious even when injured!

Her deliberately cold mood showed signs of thawing due to someone's overly "enthusiastic" show of affection.

Alarm bells rang in Cai Xiaotang's heart, and just as she was planning to find an excuse to make Li Xiao let go, she heard him say again: "Xiao Tang, about Luo Wanwan, I want to talk to you and tell you everything you want to know, okay?"
