Nan Qiao pushed open the door and walked towards the room down the corridor. The voice had come from there.
An Nuo was still waiting outside as she planned to explain the situation to someone before leaving.
“Where’s the thing 1 want?” A familiar voice rang out, cold and indifferent.
Nan Qiao froze for a moment and looked at the person who spoke.
Murong Zheng?
After recognizing the person, Nan Qiao also came back to her senses and cleared up the misunderstanding.
“I’m not the assistant you hired.” She stood in front of him and spoke clearly, meeting Murong Zheng’s gaze.
Nan Qiao’s face was reflected in Murong Zheng’s vision, making him instinctively feel that she looked familiar.
Murong Zheng stared at her face. His intuition told him that they had met before, but his mind was filled with experimental data, so he couldn’t remember it for a while.
Nan Jin’s eyelids twitched when he heard this very familiar voice.
He used all his strength to slowly open his eyes and looked in the direction of the voice.
…It’s Nan Qiao?
His vision was very blurry, but it didn’t stop him from recognizing that it was Nan Qiao standing in front of him.
A sense of guilt subconsciously surged in his heart, but it was quickly replaced by joy.
Was she here to see him?
Nan Jin’s eyes widened. He subconsciously moved his body to get up, but his legs were wrapped up, making it difficult for him to move. It was even more difficult for him to get out of bed.
“Qiaoqiao!” he shouted, his voice filled with surprise.
“Are you here to see me?”
Nan Jin’s voice made Nan Qiao, who was about to leave, stop.
She looked in the direction of the bed and realized that it was Nan Jin lying on the bed.
The man lying on the bed was pale but there was a hint of strength between his brows. His eyes seemed to emit a scorching gaze that was shockingly bright. His usual handsome appearance was no longer there, leaving only a sickly feeling wrapped around his body. He was simply lying there as he could not move easily. Anyone who saw him couldn’t help but pity him.
Nan Qiao’s gaze fell on Nan Jin’s leg. It was wrapped in a bandage, and she couldn’t tell what his injury was.
Nan Jin was so excited that he barely managed to sit up from the bed and looked at Nan Qiao happily.
But right on the heels of that, Nan Jin frowned again and looked at her worriedly.
“Stay away from me.” Nan Jin stopped and reminded her.
He just sat there obediently, his eyes fixed on Nan Qiao.
“I’m afraid it’ll infect you.”
Nan Qiao froze for a moment. She wanted to turn around and leave, but when she saw Nan Jin like this, she stood there.
Murong Zheng was still wondering who the person in front of him was when he heard Nan Jin and the other party’s conversation. Only then did he remember that Nan Qiao was the sister who had just returned not long ago.
‘I have some impression of her.’
He looked down at Nan Qiao, who was standing in front of him. The first thing he saw was her face, which was very similar to Murong Yan’s. She was really beautiful.
However, Nan Jin’s way of addressing Nan Qiao diverted his attention.
It seemed like the two of them knew each other, but Nan Qiao’s slightly cold attitude and Nan Jin’s excited look confused him.
He didn’t say anything and reached out to take Nan Jin’s medical record.
They had the same surname. Murong Zheng raised his eyebrows and tried to recall what had happened to Nan Qiao.
In less than a second, Murong Zheng realized Nan Jin’s relationship with Nan Qiao.
What a coincidence.
“H-how have you been recently?” Nan Jin could not suppress the urge in his heart and asked.
It seemed like a long time had passed since they last saw each other.
However, those shocking scenes from their past life were still etched in Nan Jin’s mind. Even though Nan Zhi was in prison, Nan Jin still felt an indescribable sense of guilt towards Nan Qiao.
Even if those things didn’t happen this time, Nan Jin knew that he still owed her a lot.
He was not fit to be her Big Brother.
“You don’t have to worry.”
Nan Jin’s attitude confused Nan Qiao, but she still answered his question coldly.
Although he didn’t know what the other party was trying to do, Nan Qiao didn’t want to be involved with anyone from the Nan family.
Moreover, who knew if Nan Jin still bore a grudge against her because of Nan Zhi? After all, among the three of them, Nan Jin was the one who doted on Nan Zhi the most. Although the other party’s behavior was different from before, Nan Qiao’s wariness did not decrease in the slightest.
Seeing Nan Qiao, Nan Jin felt that he had a lot of things to say, but when he heard her cold tone, it was as if something was blocking his throat.
He could naturally tell that Nan Qiao wanted to draw a line between them, but Nan Jin felt that this was a form of forgiveness for him, making his desire to make it up to her grow even stronger.
The atmosphere between the two of them then became stranger.
Murong Zheng took in the scene and didn’t say anything.
However, the way Nan Jin looked at him made him feel a little uncomfortable.
If he remembered correctly, Nan Qiao was chased out of the Nan family by these people.
Now that Nan Qiao was a member of the Murong family, Murong Zheng was a little unhappy that he was still pestering her.
It was as if something that belonged to him was being coveted.
“I—” Nan Jin wanted to say something else.
However, just as he opened his mouth, his vision was blocked by a dazzling white color.
Nan Jin stopped talking and looked at the doctor who suddenly stood in front of him. Although he was wearing glasses and a mask, looking at his expressionless face, Nan Jin somehow felt that the doctor was targeting him.
“Lie down.”
A cold voice came from above.
Murong Zheng did not move. He just stood there, blocking the other party’s view of his Little Sister. However, his natural and unrestrained appearance did not show that he was targeting Nan Jin at all.
Of course, he really didn’t want him to look at Nan Qiao. Who asked this guy to look so annoying?
Murong Zheng had this thought in his mind, but he couldn’t admit that it was because he didn’t like this guy. For a moment, he tightened his grip, causing some sweat to form on Nan Jin’s forehead.
Nan Jin tried to turn around and look at Nan Qiao, but after realizing that the doctor had blocked his view completely, he could only give up on this idea and slowly lay down on the bed again.
A dazzling light lit up above his head, and Murong Zheng began to examine Nan Jin’s injuries meticulously.
“Everything that happened before was my fault,” Nan Jin still refused to give up.
Before he came to the hospital, he had tried many ways to look for Nan Qiao, but it was as if someone had blocked out all information, so Nan Jin could only hit the wall repeatedly. In the end he did not even manage to locate Nan Qiao.
However, Nan Jin felt that Nan Qiao had been hurt too deeply, so she probably didn’t even want to see him.
However the guilt in his heart grew day by day, almost accumulating into an invisible mountain, pressing on Nan Jin heavily, making it difficult for him to breathe.
In the days when he couldn’t see Nan Qiao, he would always have nightmares. He would dream of Nan Qiao dying over and over again in front of him.
Nan Jin felt so tortured to the point that he drank alcohol and almost got into a car accident.
“I’m sorry, Qiaoqiao,” he said, as if in a nightmare.
However, this time, Nan Qiao was standing here perfectly fine.
Murong Zheng stood by the bed and listened to the guy talking non-stop. His good mood from his research was immediately affected. Looking at Nan Jin’s attitude towards Nan Qiao, he even had the thought of calling the hospital to switch this guy for another subject for him to do research on..
