Chapter 822 - 87: His Good Temper Was All an Act!
Gu Yan, "..." utterly defeated!
In the end, Gu Yan had no choice but to leave the hospital together with Rong Sinan.
On the way to Lei Yicheng’s base, Rong Sinan changed out of his patient gown in the back seat.
Gu Yan looked at him through the rearview mirror and saw his face was very pale, his brows furrowed tightly, looking completely exhausted.
Unable to hold back, he said, "Brother, why are you being so stubborn? You’re not in good condition, shouldn’t you stay in the hospital instead of running around?"
Rong Sinan’s breathing was labored, his back rested against the seat, eyes lightly closed, head leaning against the seat back, "Hurry up."
"..." Gu Yan’s mouth twitched, sighing inwardly, he accelerated towards Lei Yicheng’s base.
...
Rong Sinan and Gu Yan arrived at Lei Yicheng’s base but were informed that Lei Yicheng had hurried back briefly and then left again, temporarily handing over base affairs to a trusted deputy.
Gu Yan asked if Lei Yicheng had revealed his whereabouts.
They were told, no.
He asked again if Lei Yicheng mentioned when he would return.
The answer was still, no!
Gu Yan frowned deeply, feeling puzzled.
What’s going on with Lei the Second all of a sudden?
Rong Sinan listened to Gu Yan and the others’ conversations, not uttering a word from start to finish, his face pale, cold sweat constantly streaming down his forehead, fists clenched tightly at his sides.
After asking around at the base, Gu Yan turned back to Rong Sinan, seeing the beads of cold sweat on his temples, he was startled, "Brother."
Rong Sinan raised his hand, signaling he was fine.
Gu Yan had no way to persuade him, "Brother, we should go back to the hospital first. Once you’re better and discharged, it’s not too late to find Sister Xiao Yi."
Rong Sinan’s lips curled bitterly, black lashes lowered darkly.
Not too late?
But why does he feel that it’s already too late now!
She endured so much, suffering immense emotional trauma.
She acted so strong, yet he thought she was stone-hearted, thinking no matter what he did, she wouldn’t care, leading him to treat her more casually and recklessly.
Never realizing, she was just a simple girl.
Would feel pain, get injured, feel sad, cry!
What has he done to her over these years?!
Rong Sinan’s heart twisted painfully, wishing he could just stab himself right now.
"Brother, don’t be like this, your health is important." Gu Yan saw that Rong Sinan’s spirit was becoming dazed, feeling both worried and pained.
He thought, perhaps now, he might start believing his words about loving Sister Xiao Yi!
Rong Sinan’s eyelashes lowered, his whole body drained, exuding helplessness and despair, slowly moving his legs forward.
Gu Yan watched him, pursed his lips, feeling uncomfortable.
Watching him shuffle forward like a stumbling old man, step by step.
Gu Yan didn’t rush him, just stood quietly behind, watching closely to prevent him from falling.
...
Back in the car.
Gu Yan glanced in the rearview mirror at the listless Rong Sinan leaning against the back seat, brow lightly furrowed, let out a long sigh, drove towards Linx Hospital.
Upon reaching the hospital, Gu Yan initially intended to stay with Rong Sinan.
But as soon as they got out of the car, Rong Sinan said, "Gu Yan, go and attend to your own business."
Gu Yan looked at him, "Brother, I’m worried about leaving you like this, I’d rather stay in the hospital with you."
As he spoke, Gu Yan walked around the front of the car to Rong Sinan’s side.
Rong Sinan’s pale face showed a faint smile towards Gu Yan, "No need, I’m already fine now."
Gu Yan shook his head.
Refused to leave, no matter what.
He’s not convinced!
Moreover, with his face so white, he won’t be fine, definitely not!
"If you’re really worried about me, I’ll call Aunt Fang now and ask her to come and accompany me, how about that?" Rong Sinan suggested.
"No need to call Aunt Fang, I don’t have much to do today, I’ll stay with you." Gu Yan said.
"..." Rong Sinan’s eyes narrowed slightly, gazing at Gu Yan.
Gu Yan’s heart skipped, a hand pressed to his left chest, eyes widened at Rong Sinan, exclaimed, "Brother, occasionally today you give me such cold looks, it scares me!"
Rong Sinan’s pale face was stern and solemn, giving off an intimidating and unassailable pressure.
Gu Yan’s back shivered with cold chills.
Damn.
Is Brother possessed today?
The more he looked at him, the scarier he felt, the more he saw, he felt he resembled Boss Rong...
Gu Yan reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth, muttered, "Brother, don’t scare me, I’m timid."
Rong Sinan frowned tightly, "Who said you had nothing to do?"
"..." Gu Yan stood frozen, puzzled, looking at him.
"Go check Lei Yicheng’s whereabouts! Inform me immediately once you find it out," Rong Sinan said, his tone firm and assertive.
Gu Yan, "..." Brother, you’ve suddenly become so fierce, I’m really scared!
"Didn’t you hear me?" Rong Sinan stared at him.
"...Oh." Gu Yan nodded.
Seeing this, Rong Sinan’s overly cold expression eased a bit. He raised his hand and lightly patted Gu Yan’s shoulder, saying, "Thank you."
After speaking, Rong Sinan headed into the hospital.
Watching Rong Sinan’s retreating figure, Gu Yan’s face was stiff, but inwardly he was already uneasily "roaring."
Damn, damn, damn!
All these years, so many years!
He was actually deceived by him for so many years!
The good temper he had before was all pretend. All pretend!
Gu Yan’s mood now was somewhat filled with a sense of betrayal by Rong Sinan.
He never thought the one among his brothers he always considered the most easy-going and approachable, Rong Sinan, turned out to be the most cunning!
He dared to say.
Right now, other than him, Rong Mochen and the others don’t know Rong Sinan’s true nature!
Gu Yan blinked, raised his hand to touch his chin.
Considering whether to reveal his true nature to the brothers in their group chat right now.
But, without evidence, would they believe him?
Forget it.
Better wait until he gets "evidence" and then expose him!
Thinking this, Gu Yan glanced again in the direction Rong Sinan left, seeing that he had almost reached the end of the steps, then turned around and walked to the driver’s seat, opened the car door and got in.
The moment the car started.
Gu Yan suddenly thought of what Rong Sinan asked him to do.
Investigate Lei Yicheng’s whereabouts.
Tsk!
He just finished investigating Sister Xiao Yi, and now going to investigate Lei the Second, is this really okay?
Gu Yan hesitated for two seconds, then strangely self-healed.
Because he was very curious about where Lei Yicheng took Yige.
...
VIP room number 503.
When Rong Sinan walked into the room, Zhang Lan was standing by the bed, holding a towel to wipe Rong Rui’s face and hands.
Hearing footsteps from the doorway, Zhang Lan looked up, and seeing Rong Sinan’s pale and dismal appearance, she was shocked, clutching the towel tightly, "Mr. Rong, what happened to you?"
Rong Sinan didn’t answer, his reddened eyes staring at Rong Rui on the bed, "How’s Little Rui?"
"Fortunately, the fever is starting to subside." Zhang Lan exhaled, her voice full of relief.
Rong Sinan nodded, "And Tang Ruan? Has she come back?"
Her sudden cold voice made Zhang Lan pause, shaking her head, "Since she left, she hasn’t returned."
Not come back?
Rong Sinan’s clear eyes tightened coldly, he said nothing more.
"Mr. Rong, you look very unwell, would you like to go back and rest for a while?" Zhang Lan suggested.
"I’m fine." Rong Sinan said casually, moving toward Rong Rui, sitting on the bed, "You’ve been looking after Little Rui all day?"
Zhang Lan silently nodded.
Rong Sinan paused, looked at her, "Go have dinner and then go home to rest, I’m here."
"I’m not hungry, I’m staying here with Little Rui." Zhang Lan said.
People are made of flesh.
Whether one person’s care for another is genuine is actually easy to discern and feel.
And Zhang Lan’s care for Rong Rui, Rong Sinan could feel the sincerity from her.
Zhang Lan truly cares for Rong Rui.
Thinking this, Rong Sinan spoke more gently, "To take good care of Little Rui, one must first take care of oneself, otherwise, when Little Rui gets better, you might collapse, which is not worth it."
Zhang Lan looked at him.
Her gaze showed hesitation, as if she was not too assured to entrust Little Rui to him for care.
Rong Sinan seeing her like this, slightly smiled and said, "I am Little Rui’s biological father, how can I harm him? You don’t have to guard against me, I won’t hurt Little Rui, I will do everything possible to be good to him."
Rong Sinan spoke slowly, his voice hoarse yet charismatic, hearing him made one unconsciously want to believe him.
Zhang Lan pursed her lips, looked deeply at Rong Rui, took a breath and said, "Alright. I’ll go home first, I’ll come back tomorrow morning to relieve you."
"Alright," said Rong Sinan.
Zhang Lan stood in the room for a few more seconds before she turned to leave the room.
Once Zhang Lan left, the large room was left with only the father and son.
Looking at the gradually rosy little face of the little one on the bed, Rong Sinan only felt his throat dry and bitter.
Reaching out, Rong Sinan grasped Little Rui’s chubby little hand, bitterly saying, "Little one, it seems now everything depends on you."
