As he sang, he climbed onto Guan Liya’s lap and laid his head on her shoulder.

There was a lump in her throat when Guan Liya thought of her grandson’s ancestry —he was more wretched compared to a little cabbage, he had never met his own mother since birth. Guan Liya’s eyes turned a little red, she stroked her grandson’s hair gently. With a dull ache in her heart, she asked, “Why did you sing this song?”

“…” Qi Chengzhi looked at Qi Youxuan, speechless. He pursed his lips and asked, “Since when did you learn such a depressing song?”

“Chengzhi!” Xia Wenna interrupted quickly. “You are a grown-up, stop bullying kids. Youxuan was too unfortunate.”

“…” Qi Chengzhi was left speechless.

“Grandma, I want to eat another pack of potato chips,” Qi Youxuan said in a wobbly tone.

“Go ahead and eat,” Grandmother Qi did not want to stop her grandson as she knew he was in grief. It did not matter at all if he could feel better by eating more.

Song Yu felt that Grandmother Qi was not happy with Qi Chengzhi’s attitude but she did not express it, so she quickly changed the topic and asked, “Grandma, you went to the monastery to give alms?”

“Yes,” Grandmother Qi mumbled while eating a cherry. “We plan to go again after dinner.”

“Then I will follow you,” Song Yu said, wanting to help Qi Chengzhi make votive offerings herself too.

“No need.” Grandmother Qi spat out the seed and said, “Three of us plus a few monks are more than enough, and you are pregnant now. It will be very inconvenient because we need to consider your health status too. You being here taking care of Qi Chengzhi are of great help to me.”

The lot of them sat for a while more, then they left with Qi Youxuan because they still need to have their dinner before going to the monastery.

Mu Sisi stood at the innermost place in the elevator with a crowd in front of her. Mu Huaisheng had arranged an appointment for her to undergo micro-aesthetic surgery today. She came here for the removal of scar on her forehead, and once she recovered, she would then undergo hyaluronic acid injection for aesthetic purposes.

The elevator stopped again once it reached another floor, and Mu Sisi’s patience was growing thin. However. she was surprised when Grandmother Qi, Xia Wenna and Guan Liya entered the elevator.

Mu Sisi quickly hid in the crowd, she did not want to be seen by the Qi family. Then, she heard Qi Youxuan ask, “Grandma, when can uncle discharge from the hospital?”

Guan Liya answered simply, “Once his wound has healed, then he can be discharged from the hospital.”

“When will his wound be healed?” Qi Youxuan asked.

“Hmm… your uncle was badly injured, I think it would at least be the end of the month before he can be discharged from the hospital.” Guan Liya said, “You knew your uncle was injured and you still made him angry.”

“It was his uncle who was narrow-minded.” Xia Wenna quickly explained, “Always bullying kids.”

Mu Sisi was surprised to know that Qi Chengzhi was injured.

Soon, the elevator reached the ground floor and Grandmother Qi’s family went out. Mu Sisi remained in the elevator and waited for the elevator to be empty, then she pressed on the floor number that they had entered just now, and waited as a few people came in.

Mu Sisi exited the elevator, went to the nursing station and asked for Qi Chengzhi’s room number. The nurse thought she was here to visit so she told Mu Sisi his room number without much thinking.

Mu Sisi followed the room numbers and found the room where Qi Chengzhi stayed. She tried the doorknob and was surprised when the door was not locked, so she opened the door and went in.

Qi Chengzhi was reading a magazine when she came in. He had left all the work to Qi Chenglin during his hospital stay so he felt relaxed and did not bother to ask about the company’s condition.

Qi Chengzhi lifted his gaze from the magazine when he heard the door open and saw Mu Sisi.

Qi Chengzhi’s facial expression changed instantly —his face darkened and he appeared intimidating, his tone as cold as ice. “Get out.”

Mu Sisi was stunned at the doorstep. “Big Brother Chengzhi.”

“I want you to get out,” Qi Chengzhi said coolly while he remained expressionless.

“Big Brother Chengzhi, I purposely came here to visit you.” Mu Sisi bit the bullet and did not back off, not even a step backward.

“You don’t understand? You are not welcome anywhere I’m present.” Qi Chengzhi could not move now, or else he would kick Mu Sisi out of the room himself.

“Big Brother Chengzhi, please don’t be like that.” Mu Sisi emboldened herself and walked into the room. When she saw Qi Chengzhi remain on the bed and appeared as if he could not move at all, she became bold and closed the door behind her.

“I know I have done a lot of things that made you angry, and I am terribly sorry.” Mu Sisi walked towards Qi Chengzhi and stopped before him. “I came to visit because I am worried about you, that was the only reason.”

Qi Chengzhi peeked at Mu Sisi coldly. “You came to threaten me the last time you were in my office, and here you are now, apologizing and pretending to be innocent. I think you should go to the psychiatry department and have a look. Best to treat it at an early stage of the disease.”

Mu Sisi was shocked, she never thought Qi Chengzhi’s statement would be so mean, with a complete disregard of her feelings. Her voice quivered as she asked, “Do you hate me this much, Big Brother Chengzhi?”

“I do not hate you,” Qi Chengzhi replied coldly.

Mu Sisi relaxed. “Then—”

“I merely feel disgusted with you,” Qi Chengzhi interrupted, his voice flat.

Mu Sisi’s face went ashen-grey instantly and her lips quivered. “What can I do so that you can forgive me? I will do anything to earn your forgiveness. Big Brother Chengzhi, you know how strong my affection for you is, you can choose not to like me but your disgust toward me is too much for me to bear.”

“Really? You are willing to do anything that I say?” Qi Chengzhi lifted his head, finally making direct eye contact.

Mu Sisi felt happy and leaned forward toward him. She could not help wanting to be near him all the time. She felt infatuated with Qi Chengzhi’s handsomeness and elegance despite his injury.

She nodded quickly. “Big Brother Chengzhi, anything you say.”

“Then you leave now and do not appear anywhere near me ever again, then I will not feel disgusted at you anymore,” Qi Chengzhi said as he smirked.

Mu Sisi almost fell down and moved half a step backward with an unsteady gait. She asked, “Big Brother Chengzhi, I want to know how you are holding up right now. I will leave once I am done, I will not disturb you afterward. Where did you get injured? How bad was it? Let me have a look.”

She wanted to lift his hospital gown up as she spoke. Hospital gowns were not appealing in any way, even the most handsome celebrity would lose his elegance and glamour when wearing this kind of plain gown during an act, but when Qi Chengzhi wore it, she felt he was still as extraordinary as ever.

Qi Chengzhi quickly resisted by pressing on his gown and gnashed his teeth in frustration. “Mu Sisi! Behave yourself!”

Mu Sisi saw him still lying in bed despite all that, her eyes rolled as if thinking and asked, “Big Brother Chengzhi, your wound is this serious until you can’t move at all?”

Qi Chengzhi blinked and ground his teeth in anger. Song Yu went to ask the doctors about his condition and when he can be discharged from the hospital, thus he was left alone at the moment. “Mu Sisi, do not let me feel more disgusted at you, leave now!”

Mu Sisi looked at him and grinned suddenly. “Why is Song Yu not here to accompany you despite your serious injury?”

Qi Chengzhi clenched his teeth and saw her moving toward the door slowly. She held the doorknob, but instead of turning it to open the door, she locked it.

Qi Chengzhi frowned as Mu Sisi returned, threw her bag on the floor and got on the bed, sitting on Qi Chengzhi’s thigh.

“Mu Sisi, have you no sense of shame?” His complexion became pale with anger and he gnashed his teeth in frustration, looking at Mu Sisi with repugnance.

“Big Brother Chengzhi, I feel this is my only chance. My brother wants me to marry another man and my parents want to abolish my right for inheritance if I choose not to listen. If I must be married to a man I have no affection for, I’d rather have your baby first before I do that. I want to give you my virginity. If I cannot be with you for the rest of my life, then at least I would find peace in taking care of your offspring.” Mu Sisi said, “Big Brother Chengzhi, let me bear your child and I promise I will never bother you again. Please consider this as my self-pity. I love you so much until I feel really petty and low, can you let me fulfill my wish just this once?”

“Leave!” Qi Chengzhi gnashed his teeth, his long arm went toward her forearm with enormous force, trying to pull her off the bed. The movement caused pain on the wound and his grip loosened. Then Mu Sisi used the opportunity to try and pull down his pants.

Qi Chengzhi’s eyes were tinged with blood, his anger reached a peak until he felt like murdering Mu Sisi. He ignored the stomach wound and gripped his belt to prevent it from being pulled by Mu Sisi. All the pain receptors around the wound flared up as he sat up. Qi Chengzhi felt an endless stream of ache from his wound and blood started oozing out, staining his gown.

Mu Sisi got shocked, her face turned pale and she had no idea if she wanted to continue or take Qi Chengzhi’s injury into consideration. But she held firmly to his gown this time and did not let go because she was about to be thrown off by him just now.

Qi Chengzhi ground his teeth, his face turned pale as he felt intense pain in addition to blood loss due to wound dehiscence. Since the wound had opened, he did not care much anymore, so he sat up and grabbed Mu Sisi’s hair.

Her scalp felt as if it was about to break. Mu Sisi could not bear the pain and shouted to ask Qi Chengzhi to loosen his grip. Qi Chengzhi did not care and pulled her hair with stronger force until her neck was extended, revealing the gauze on her forehead.

“Big Brother Chengzhi!” Mu Sisi flailed both her arms randomly, trying to grab Qi Chengzhi.

Qi Chengzhi endured the agonizing pain from his wound, every muscle fiber in the abdomen contracted, his arm’s muscle fiber fired up and pulled Mu Sisi off the bed. With a loud thud, she fell down. Qi Chengzhi covered his abdomen with his hand and went off the other side of the bed. The pain, however, was too intense, thus, his legs weakened and with the flexion of his knee joints, he fell down too.

His hand that was covering the stomach wound was now soaked in blood, and the blood oozed out between his fingers and dripped onto the floor. A moment later, the floor was pooled with his blood.

Mu Sisi stood up and stiffened with shock at the sight of a bloody Qi Chengzhi across the bed. She was born self-willed, and her attitude worsened with age, but she had never witnessed an event as gruesome as this. It was good enough that she did not lose consciousness at the very sight of this huge pool of blood, but she just stood there and remained silent as she was in shock.

At this moment, the doorknob turned from the outside, then that person pushed the door when he realized the door was locked.

Qi Chengzhi immediately stood up and walked to the door with an unsteady gait, but the room was too big and the distance to the door was a little too far. The pain exhausted his legs; he felt weak and cold from his ankles up till his hip. His knees quivered and he fell down when he was about to reach the door.

Qi Chengzhi extended his arm and slapped on the door with a huge bang.

“Chengzhi!” Song Yu’s anxious voice traveled from the other side of the door. “What happened inside?”

Qi Chengzhi extended his arm and crawled forward at a snail’s pace, his face and lips colorless.

Song Yu felt anxious as she tried opening the door again but to no avail. Thus, she went to find the nurse for the keys. She was worried sick and regretted leaving Qi Chengzhi alone in the room. It was impossible to be able to lock the door from the outside and Qi Chengzhi was immobilized on the bed, thus the probability of him locking the door himself was close to zero. Hence, she became worried thinking if it was someone who locked the door so that he could hurt him.

“Song Yu, what is going on?” asked Yu Qianying and Song Donglin as they came out of the lift, followed by Cheng Dongge and Qi Chengyue. They saw Song Yu walking anxiously to the nursing counter.

Qi Chengyue knew Aunt Yang went to the old mansion to help out and Yu Qianying would deliver the meals to the hospital today, so she went to the Song family after work with Cheng Dongge to fetch Yu Qianying and Song Donglin together to come to the hospital and visit Qi Chengzhi.

“The room was locked from the inside but Qi Chengzhi couldn’t get down from the bed, so I was worried if—” Song Yu summarized.

The nurse recognized Song Yu and took the keys out immediately. “Just now there was a lady who was about the same age as you who came to visit and asked for Mr. Qi’s room number, to which I answered, and she was the only visitor.”

The nurse did not dare to hesitate and ran towards Qi Chengzhi’s room for fear that there may be something sinister that might happen. Even without Chu Zhaoyang’s contact, Chutian Hospital held a great deal of responsibility and needed to bear the consequences if a patient encountered some unfortunate accidents in the hospital.

“Song Yu, slow down, you shouldn’t run. I will go with Cheng Dongge first.” Qi Chengyue was worried that something bad might happen if she ran.

Cheng Dongge and Qi Chengyue ran with the nurse, and since Song Yu could not run, she could only walk with bigger footsteps with Song Donglin and Yu Qianying’s support.

Song Yu was near the room when the door was unlocked.

Then, she heard a loud scream before she could actually reach the door. “Big brother!”

Song Yu’s heart skipped a beat and hurried toward the door when she saw Qi Chengyue and Cheng Dongge rush into the room. What came into her sight was Qi Chengzhi lying face down on the floor with blood all over his extended arm. Cheng Dongge carefully rolled Qi Chengzhi to face Qi Chengyue, in fear of injuring him and making the wound worse. Then, he lifted Chengzhi up and placed him on the bed.

“Chengzhi, what happened to you?” Blood drained from Song Yu’s face. She was horrified by the pool of blood and the bloody trail left by Qi Chengzhi.

Qi Chengyue and Cheng Dongge saw Mu Sisi still immobilized in shock. Qi Chengyue quickly went toward her and blocked her escape route. “Why are you here?”

Song Yu walked in and saw Mu Sisi, but now she was worried sick about Qi Chengzhi’s injury and ignored her presence.

The nurse quickly contacted the doctor. Song Yu grabbed Qi Chengzhi’s hand which was now stained with blood. “Chengzhi.”

Qi Chengzhi felt dizzy due to the pain, but he relaxed when he saw Song Yu. She grabbed Qi Chengzhi’s hand tightly, her tears started streaming down her cheeks when she saw the huge bloodstain on his gown. She felt as if she had returned to the day she was kidnapped by Jian Yi.

“I am fine, please don’t cry,” Qi Chengzhi said as he comforted her in a weak voice.

How could she be able to bear it? It broke her heart seeing Qi Chengzhi in that state.

Finally, Mu Sisi snapped out of it. She wanted to run but her route was blocked by Qi Chengyue.

“We are not done here, now you want to run after what you have possibly done to Qi Chengzhi?” said Qi Chengyue as she gnashed her teeth.

The doctor came rushing in and Cheng Dongge closed the door silently and stood guard.

The gown stuck to his skin with his blood. The nurse carefully cut his gown off, revealing the blood-soaked gauze wrapped on his stomach wound, which was then removed with extreme care by the nurse.

“It was looking good initially, why did the wound break down suddenly?” The doctor shook his head when he saw the wound. “Your wound was actually recovering pretty well, but now the healing process has to restart again.”

The nurse cleaned the blood on Qi Chengzhi and revealed the dehisced wound, it was really hair-raising. Mu Sisi peeked and quickly turned her head in the other direction.

The doctor gave him a regional anesthesia, removed the original sutures and resutured the wound again. Once the process was done, the wound was wrapped in gauze again and the doctor advised not to let the wound break down under any circumstances. The doctor then asked the nurse to give Qi Chengzhi another intravenous infusion and left afterward.

Cheng Dongge closed the door and walked over, giving Mu Sisi a blank stare.

“So, what have you done?” Qi Chengyue scolded.

Mu Sisi was ashen-grey and remained silent for quite some time. Then, she raised her chin and said, “What do you want? Taking advantage of your numbers to bully me? Move aside!”

Qi Chengzhi’s face paled with anger but it was too embarrassing to say that he was nearly raped by a woman, especially in his own sister’s presence.

Song Yu wiped her tears, noticed the messy bed, Mu Sisi’s messy hair and shirt, and Qi Chengzhi’s teeth gritting in anger; she thought of a possibility, but the very thought of it felt ridiculous.

However, this was the only possibility she could think of based on Mu Sisi’s perseverance toward Qi Chengzhi.

“Miss Mu, you will be sentenced for injuring with purpose,” Song Yu said with a flat tone.

“What nonsense are you saying? I did not hurt anyone on purpose. How could I possibly injure Big Brother Chengzhi?” Mu Sisi explained.

“Are you sure?” Song Yu pursed her lips, her tone as cold as ice. “You were the only one in the room with Chengzhi just now, and he was badly injured when we found him. Who do you think would believe you when you say you did not hurt him on purpose? What do you think will happen if Chengzhi insisted that you hurt him on purpose plus the testimonies provided by the doctor and nurse, even if you deny it?”

“I didn’t, Song Yu! Don’t frame me, you are so wicked! I love Big Brother Chengzhi, I would never allow him to get into any trouble!” Mu Sisi explained, her face paled.

“You didn’t? Then what did you do to Chengzhi? You wanted to throw yourself into his arms when he couldn’t move amidst the injury?” Song Yu stared at Mu Sisi, who was startled and her expression became uncomfortable.

Song Yu’s hand quivered with wrath, she pointed her finger at Mu Sisi and said, “Mu Sisi, have you no sense of shame? Chengzhi did not want to touch you when you were naked last time, so now when he is injured, you… you…”

Song Yu ground her teeth as she was speechless. Her anger peaked and she felt like slapping Mu Sisi to the edge of the sky so that she would not return and bother them again.

“How desperate are you to do this kind of thing when he’s injured? You dare say you love him and you’re not willing to see him get injured despite his condition?” Song Yu’s hands trembled with rage. “He’d rather let the wound break open than touch you, yet you still refuse to give up?

Do you have any sense of shame? How are you able to do such filthy stuff?”

Song Yu’s tears welled up as her anger rose. She could not talk sense with Mu Sisi.

Qi Chengyue was stunned and stared at Mu Sisi. She had never thought that she was capable of being so shameless and wanted to rape Qi Chengzhi during his injury.
