Qi Shuai almost cried his tears out when saw the questioning gaze of Li Xue in himself. There was no way in which he could reveal to her the intentions that brought him to this stage. Even though he was outraged at his friend for his insensitivity towards him, yet he could not bring himself to sell him off like this. After all, he has followed very closely how difficult it was for the Devil to fall for someone.
He could not dare to make his impression wrong in front of Xiao Xue. Qi Shuai shook his head internally, while giving a pressed awkward smile to the woman.
"Haha … Xiao Xue, please don't look at me like that. In no way I would have suffered this painful accident if I had known this was coming. What absurd are you thinking?" Qi Shuai said as he forced a chuckle out to make his words believable to the woman.
Li Xue looked at him for a moment, judging his attitude well. Then shrugging her shoulders simply, she said, "Even your words are trying their best to come out believable, there are somethings around that make me doubt that". She said, as her eyes meaningfully darted to look at the man on the couch. Her meaning came all clear to their understanding. "Anyway, as long as Director Qi is fine, nothing else is much important". She said, shaking off the matter for the time being.
Qi Shuai laughed lightly. "Of course, I am fine now. The doctor also said that there is nothing to …" Before he could even complete his words of assurance, his voice paused to wince sharply at the pain while his eyes flew to look beside to look at the woman beside him. "Ahh! What are you trying to do, LanLan!"
While he was busy explaining the things to Li Xue, he failed to notice that Feng Yi Lan had left her initial position to take a stroll to reach him. And just when he was giving his last words of assurance to Li Xue, Yi Lan moved her hands to touch the fresh wound on his neck to run a check on it.
Yi Lan's actions were innocent. She was concernedly checking on him. "That wound wasn't there when you were last sleeping here. How come it is there now? Did you get it recently?" She asked as her eyes stared at the wound deeply.
All the time last night when she stayed beside him, she has made herself remember every wound and scratches on his body. She has counted them and kept them in the memory, so that when he wakes and she gets to look after him, she would be all known to the parts she has to be careful about.
Qi Shuai was taken aback. "I … I ... don't know. It must be from the accident." He said, dodging the question with the most easy excuse that struck his thoughts. After all, he never expected someone to notice him.
"How can that be? It wasn't there when I last checked your wounds" Yi Lan counterd, being confident of her remembrance.
"You have checked on me?" Qi Shuai suddenly asked. His eyes, forgetting about everything else and shining with hope. "I thought you would not care for me".
Feng Yi Lan was at once fl.u.s.tered at those words. Her face went red as if she was caught red handed. Tugging some of her hair behind her ears in nervousness, she quickly said, "I was getting bored last night, seeing you sleep. So I counted them to pass time. Nothing else. Don't think too much."
She said thinking that she dodged the bullet but little did she expect that instead of dodging, she got herself more caught into it.
"You were by my side for the whole night. Were you scared for me? Did you think I would die yesterday?" Qi Shuai asked as in a moment, he almost forgot the other two presence in the room. Getting all delighted, his eyes saw nothing but Feng Yi Lan at the moment.
"I … I was just accompanying Li Xue to the hospital. Don't think too much."
On the other side,
Soon, Pan Hong was shifted to the darker base, situated somewhere underground. If the usual underground base of the Fengs was called to be scary, the darkness of this place was thousand times scarier than that.
But at this moment that was not a concern to Pan Hong; instead, his thoughts were all messed up with the person he had seen at the hospital. Even after witnessing her with his own eyes, he could not bring himself to believe her existence in the world.
Didn't she die five years back? Pan Hong shook his head at the thought. Of course, she must have died years back. How could she survive? There was no chance of her survival.
But then how was she alive today? Was he hallucinating her at the hospital?
That was impossible! Simply impossible! He has personally sent people after her life and his people have also confirmed her death.. There was no way she would have survived. He must have seen wrong. And if not wrong, then there was only one thing that was possible …
He was being betrayed by his own people.
Pan Hong was busy contemplating his own thoughts when was suddenly pushed inside a small room, making him stumble onto the floor. "You … what the hell are you doing?" He yelled back, almost forgetting where and with whom he was.
When realized, his eyes widened in horror. All along the pace, there was not even a single hint of light. If not for the sense of touch, in such dense darkness he would not be even able to feel his own self. "Where is this place? Where have you taken me?" He asked, looking around but neither any figure came to his vision, nor did any response to his words came his way.
But little did he ever think that in the store of the Devil, apart from death, there would be ways to keep the man torturously alive.
