Chapter 539: Chapter 560: Su Yun’s Reaction

“Why? I am her uncle, I have more right than you,” Su Hai fumed furiously.

“Don’t you understand yet?” Xu Qigang finally shifted his gaze from Sheng Ning to Su Hai, reluctantly placing it on Su Hai’s face, his lips curling into a cold arc, “Do you think she stabbed herself just for Meng Ping to see?”

Su Hai was stunned, his eyes showing an unprecedented blankness.

“She didn’t just stab herself for Meng Ping to see, but also for you, the Su Family, to see. It was her determination, a determination to die. Can’t you see that?”

Su Hai mechanically stood up, unable to help but sway, “I understand now! You… take good care of her.”

“Thank you!” Watching Su Hai leave, Xu Qigang’s tense body finally relaxed. He carefully cradled Sheng Ning’s hand in his palm, “Why are you so foolish? If there’s any problem, I’m still here. You don’t need to go through this hardship.”

He could actually clearly feel the pain, sorrow, and despair suppressed beneath Xiao Ning’s smiling and positive facade. She had tightly wrapped her heart up, not allowing anyone to penetrate.

This nearly drove him mad.

Chen Yingjie was personally sent back by Zhou Hong, who berated him the entire way.

“You really have guts, man, you’re tough. I don’t respect anyone but you.”

Chen Yingjie nodded seriously, “Thank you!”

“Thank your sister!”

“Please don’t insult my sister, be careful she might beat you up.” Chen Yingjie believed his sister was capable enough to thrash any weak instructor.

“You…” Zhou Hong was choked up, thinking of Chen Huaying’s fierceness, perhaps he really couldn’t beat her. “With such big trouble you’ve caused, just wait for a suspension and investigation.”

“That’s perfect, a break…” Chen Yingjie was indifferent.

“Keep dreaming. You blatantly fired a gun at the department store, threatened people in the hospital, and you still want a break? You must wish it was a lifetime break.”

“As long as it doesn’t affect the Captain!”

Zhou Hong was choked up again, stared at him for a long while before saying, “The Captain is your superior, do you think he won’t be punished? Or do you think he’ll let you take the punishment alone?”

King Yan’s character was clear to them; in any situation, he was always in the front line.

“What should we do now?” Chen Yingjie finally panicked, “Coach, you need to handle this properly, otherwise our War Wolf Rescue Team is finished!”

Zhou Hong tiredly rubbed his temples, “First, go back and calm those idiots. When I left, they had already driven out the tanks, if I hadn’t stopped them in time, they would probably be at the department store by now.” When the idiots heard there was trouble, each one bared their teeth, some even almost spitting blood in regret.

Why did this life-threatening opportunity to follow the Captain into battle have to be taken by Chen Yingjie again? How come all the good things were his?

Damn it, letting him steal the spotlight again.

“What? Really gutsy.”

“Shut up! Hurry back and calm those idiots down, then cooperate with the investigation.”

“Yes, Coach.”

Sheng Ning woke up in the middle of the night, every part of her body aching after the anesthesia. When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Xu Qigang’s distinctly handsome face, already covered with a layer of stubble, giving him a more decadent and unrestrained air.

“Awake? Are you very upset?” Xu Qigang smiled at her, but the corners of his mouth were so stiff that he couldn’t really smile. He finally said through gritted teeth, “Once you’re better, see how I’ll deal with you.”

“I can hardly wait!” Sheng Ning laughed cheerfully, but the movement pained her due to her wounds, causing her small face to scrunch up.

“Now you know the pain? How could you have been so harsh at that time?” Heaven knows his soul had almost left him.

“It hurts…it really hurts…” Sheng Ning’s voice was as soft as a lamb, pitifully saying, “King Yan, can you kiss me? If you kiss me, it won’t hurt.”

“You…” With a bellyful of lectures, Xu Qigang couldn’t utter a word. In the end, he leaned down and planted a passionate kiss on her lips.

“Don’t ever hurt yourself again, do you hear me?” His voice was hoarse as he whispered, “No matter what happens, you are not allowed to harm yourself, promise me.”

“But…”

Xu Qigang cut off her words, looking at her earnestly and insistently, word by word, “Remember, nothing is more important than your life, promise me!”

Sheng Ning blinked, and tears slid down from the corners of her eyes. “Okay!”

“We can go home together this time.” At the mention of home, Xu Qigang’s eyes filled with joy.

“Going home? Do you have time?” Sheng Ning knew how busy Xu Qigang was, especially strict towards the end of the year. Her injury undoubtedly meant saying goodbye to the Spring Festival joint performance, but Xu Qigang couldn’t.

“I have a lot of time,” he said, holding her hand. “Once you’re discharged, we’ll return to our hometown.”

“Really?”

“Yes!”

“That’s great! I miss An’an and my parents.”

Due to excessive blood loss, Sheng Ning fell into a deep sleep again. After the nurse removed her IV, Xu Qigang, unaware, fell asleep while curled up at the edge of her bed.

That night, he had a dream, a long and terrible dream.

The matter of Sheng Ning getting hurt was quietly suppressed. Just when it had stirred up a shocking wave, it soon returned to calm, and many people didn’t even know.

People from the General Union merely heard that the Union Flower was hospitalized for appendicitis. Inside the Song and Dance Troupe, this was also the reason given to pacify everyone, and many felt pity for Sheng. She had just been confirmed as the lead dancer for Hope Field, only to have to take a month off for recovery.

The position of lead dancer for Hope Field was inevitably replaced, which was truly a pity.

Now the biggest news had been taken away by the War Wolf Rescue Team. War Wolf Rescue Team Leader, Xu Qigang, together with the leader of the fourth squad, Chen Yingjie, had been involved in a mass brawl, leading to a stop and investigation.

This explosive news had shaken the entire union.
