Chapter 359: Fu Lingxiao, Who Do You Think You Are?

clearly, I swear.""Oh, so you just deceived me Let me think, how much should I deduct from your salary""Mmm... No!"Mu Xing hugged the man's waist, ignoring that he wasn't wearing any clothes. She rubb...A warm and magnetic voice entered his ears, Shen Qiong's hand was still frantically pressing the mouse and keyboard, he was already stunned there.

After a moment of hesitation, she stammered, "Dr. He, Dr. He."

Hearing her timid voice, He Chao could already imagine the awkward expression on the little girl's face at this moment, "I seem to have bothered you"

The clatter of the keyboard and the sound effects of the game suddenly stopped, "No!"

On the other end of the phone, there was an unnerving silence. You could hear someone's breathing, faint but laced with panic.

He Chao couldn't help but curl the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Shen Lue said he sent you to the special forces base, are you used to it there"

"I'm so used to it now! Let me tell you, the computers here are super good. I've never seen such awesome specs before. Gaming is amazing..."

Shen Qiong stopped mid-sentence, her voice abruptly cut off. What was she even saying!

She lightly pounded her forehead, awkwardly trying to recover: "Well, that is... I mean, this place is really nice..."

He Chao twirled a pen between his fingers, speaking softly with a smile, "Just get used to it. Besides gaming, don't forget to eat on time and exercise moderately. I'll come see you whenever I have the chance."

"Huh" Shen Qiong was taken aback. "Why are you here to see me"

The moment the words left her mouth, she instantly regretted it, wishing she could bite off her own tongue. "That is... I mean, will this inconvenience your work"

"Of course not, it's just that the special forces base is not somewhere you can enter at will, requiring Mr. Fu's permission."

"Oh," Shen Qiong said, "that'd be too much trouble. I'll come see you when I get out instead."

"Um, I'll keep that in mind."

"With a smile in his intelligent eyes, He Chaoqing said, 'Alright, you play your game. I have to get busy.'

"

Until the phone call ended, Shen Qiong only realized she had spoken nonsense again.

It seems Wang Baochun hasn't watched enough videos of digging vegetables! Let's watch it a thousand more times!

On the game chat, her teammates were scolding her for being a liability. Her attention was drawn to it, and she kept playing, which distracted her from that moment of wanting to hit a wall in shame.

- Midnight.

Inside the hospital ward of the medical building.

The girl, who had been unconscious in bed for many days, fluttered her long eyelashes like butterfly wings and slowly opened her eyes.

What met the eye was a darkness.

Mu Xing moved her stiff body, only then did she realize that one of her hands was being held tightly, and in her ear, there was still a deep breathing sound coming.

Thinking about what happened before she fell unconscious, she quickly turned her head to look.

The man lay quietly beside her, his eyes closed in the dim light. His face was more gaunt than usual, his pale complexion making him look both fierce and fragile.

Mu Xing gently withdrew his hand from his palm, his fingertips resting on his wrist. Although the pulse was weak, it was thankfully steady.

She quietly let out a breath, snuggling into his arms. She wrapped her small hands around his waist and pressed her cheek against his chest, clinging to him tightly.

Thank goodness Uncle is alright, thank goodness.

In the dim light, a man with his eyes closed silently twitched the corner of his lips, tightening his arms around the little one in a silent embrace...

When Mu Xing woke up again, it was already noon the next day.

At this moment, she was alone on the bed. She touched the space beside her, feeling only coldness. It was clear that the man had left long ago.

The body is still so weak, where did it go

Mùxīng got up and went to look for him. As soon as she opened the door of the ward, she saw Wu Guānmài walking over with a serious expression. She hurried to ask, “Uncle Wu, where is my little uncle”

Wu Guanjia frowned, looking at Mu Xing hesitated for a moment, then said: "Little Mu Xing, are you hungry Uncle will go call someone to prepare some food for you."

Evade the answer, obviously there is a problem.

Mu Xing grabbed him and asked, "Uncle, did something happen"

"Little Mu Xing, you'd better not ask."

Wu Guanjia's face was full of difficulty, Mu Xing became more and more worried, "Where is my little uncle now I'll go find him."

"The young master's state is very bad right now, he said he wants to be alone and quiet, not allowing anyone to disturb him, Little Muxing you be good..."

Mu Xing was really in a hurry, interrupting Wu管家's words, "Tell me, where is Uncle Xiao!"

"The last bedroom on the second floor of this villa."

Mu Xing got the answer and ran out, past Wu Guanjia.

Wu Guanjia watched her hurried figure, his serious expression suddenly dissipated, replaced by a face full of relief. Young master, old Wu can only help you to this point, you have to do your best!

Mu Xing ran into the second villa in one breath and pushed open the door to the last bedroom.

The curtains were drawn tightly shut, plunging the room into darkness. Only the faint light from the hallway illuminated the scene: a man sat facing away from the door on a single armchair by the window. He wore a thin hospital gown, a bandage wrapped around his head, and his tall figure was shrouded in shadow. He seemed cold and lonely.

Mu Xing's heart skipped a beat, she took a step inside, "Little uncle."

The man didn't respond, sitting there in silence. The stillness hung heavy in the air, as if suffocating all oxygen.

"Little Uncle, what happened"

As the stars approached, the man's low voice finally rang out, "Don't come closer."

She didn't listen to him, not even pausing her steps. The moment her footsteps landed behind him, the man abruptly spoke again: "Mu Xing, you go. I won't stop you."

Mu Xing was taken aback, "What are you talking about"

"Didn't you want me to let you go I'm agreeing now, you may leave."

The man's voice was low and raspy, as if it were being forced out from the depths of his throat: "Go!"

"What for"

Mu Xing lowered her head and looked at him, moving her steps to walk in front of him. Her expression was cold, "You want me, so you disregard my wishes and bring me back, but when you don't want me anymore, you ruthlessly drive me away. Fu Lingxiao, who do you think you are Why should I allow myself to be manipulated by you"

The man sat motionless, silence spreading between them. After what felt like an eternity, he suddenly reached out and gripped the curtain.

With a swoosh, the curtains were pulled open, and blinding sunlight streamed in from outside.

The room was filled with light.

Fu Lingxiao slowly raised his head, his gray eyes seemed to shine with a light, as if looking at her, yet there was nothing there.

A hint of a smirk played on his lips, but there was no mirth in his eyes. "See Mu Xing, I'm blind. For the rest of my life, I can only live in darkness. I can't drag you down."

Mu Xing's eyes trembled violently, her gaze fixed on the man's.

His dark, ebony eyes seemed to be veiled in a layer of ash, devoid of any color.

How could this be

Mu Xing's voice was hoarse, her gaze locked on his eyes. Pain crept silently from the depths of her heart, a dense and overwhelming sensation that filled her entire being.

For a moment, soft hands cupped his pale face. She spoke, word by word, “I won’t leave. I’ll find a way to cure your eyes.”

"I don't want you to pity me, Mu Xing. My pride won't allow it."

The man grasped her wrist and gently pulled it open, turning his head away. His expression was cold and aloof, as if he was determined to send her away.seeing the doctor. After she could walk again, she never went back. Everyone assumed the old woman was just getting older and that's why her leg injury took so long to heal. It wasn't until Mu Xing sp...
