“I didn’t say I’m not worried. I was just telling you not to worry. I’ll take care of Xiaoxiao. You should go down first. I’ll go and see her myself.” Yin Shaojie told her to go downstairs and he returned to the room where Xiaoxiao was.
He walked up to the bed and saw that Xiaoxiao’s eyes were open.
She was lying on her side, her eyes staring blankly into the distance. Obviously, she was in a daze.
Yin Shaojie knelt on the bed, lifted up the blanket, and laid down beside her, his large palm stroking her hair.
“You’re awake?”
Mu Xiaoxiao turned her head around and looked at him. She shook her head and said, “I didn’t sleep.”
“You were frightened, huh?” His long fingers helped her to arrange her messy bangs.
Mu Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, nodded, and muttered, “A little…”
She didn’t expect anyone to realize who she was. At that moment, she had a real fright.
Yin Shaojie sighed heavily. “There is something I have to tell you. It is bad news.”
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him, her eyes filled with unease. “What bad news?”
“That person is probably still alive.” Yin Shaojie’s eyes looked solemn and a sharp gleam flitted across his eyes.
Mu Xiaoxiao stared blankly. “Didn’t he… The helicopter crashed. He’s still not dead?”
Yin Shaojie also didn’t like the news. KO knew her identity and tried to take her away. No matter what his objective was, he had malicious intent toward Xiaoxiao.
“The helicopter probably had tools for escape. The police couldn’t find his body. They also searched nearby places but there was no trace of him.”
Upon hearing the bad news, Mu Xiaoxiao looked gloomy. She reached over and hugged him, snuggling her head against his chest.
She said pitiably, “He’s scary. His eyes were like that of a venomous snake. When he stared at me it gave me the creeps.”
Yin Shaojie wrapped his long arm around her, his lips pressed against her cheek as he kissed her gently.
“I’ll find a way to find him. You’ll be fine.”
“Yeah.” Of course she believed in him.
After they hugged for a while, Mu Xiaoxiao looked up at him with her large, black eyes and said, “I remembered something. When I lost my memory, we saw Jun Zeye in the back alley of a bar, right?”
Yin Shaojie nodded. “Yeah.”
Mu Xiaoxiao nodded. “I knew it. When I saw him for the first time, I thought he looked familiar. It seemed like I saw him somewhere before.”
“After he saved you without regard for his own safety, I thought you would be more worried about his injury,” Yin Shaojie said deliberately, with some jealousy in his tone.
“Ah!” Mu Xiaoxiao seemed to have just remembered something. “Oh yeah! His injury! I wonder if his injury is okay.”
Yin Shaojie looked at her unhappily. “Hey!”
Mu Xiaoxiao chuckled and she poked her head over to kiss him on the face. “Geez, at least he saved me. If it weren’t for him, the big, heavy billboard would have turned me into a meat patty and you wouldn’t be able to hold me now.”
Indeed, Jun Zeye saved her life. Yin Shaojie couldn’t say otherwise and deep down he respected Jun Zeye for saving his wife.
Things could have ended much worse.
