Ning Feng was sacrificing himself for others, being charitable and donating generously to Margaret... completely unaware of the crisis on the other side.
Bang!
After hearing Jiang Wan's words, Xilin really didn't hold back her expression. She took a step back and looked at Jiang Wan who was sitting with her knees in fear.
That expression was full of happiness.
Don't come over here!
Don't say that name!
I really don't want to hear it!
You are here to show off, right? You must be here to show off, right!?
Have you already found out and come to make me angry on purpose?
Um?
Startled by Shilin's huge reaction, Jiang Wan glanced at her friend strangely and said strangely:
"Why did you react so loudly?"
What are you afraid of?
Seeing the resistance in Xilin's eyes, Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment and nodded clearly, saying:
"Oh~ So that's what happened!"
Shireen:???
what happened?
Do you understand now?
Please explain it clearly to me!
Putting on a sad expression, Jiang Wan looked at the alert Shilin sadly and said sadly:
"Oh, although I have indeed told you about him many times before, we haven't seen him in the past two years, so you should be patient for a little bit."
"My teammates all love hearing this! You make me a little sad!"
That’s what you think!
But that's not what I want to say!
But when the words came to her lips, Shilin still didn't say them out. After all, she was the one who let Jiang Wan in.
She was indeed curious to know what Jiang Wan wanted to say to her at this time.
Remaining vigilant, Shirin asked with some confusion:
"...Then what do you want to say?"
Taking her friend's reaction as a sign of resistance after hearing too much in the past, Jiang Wan didn't pay attention. She coughed lightly and continued:
"Dr. Lin, we have known each other for a while, and I can still understand some things."
Being able to have such an office on the top floor, as well as the medicines that he had "taken away" with Dr. Lin's tacit approval, naturally Dr. Lin is not just a strange doctor.
"I know that your status is quite special, and you didn't deliberately hide this matter..."
"That promise you told me then, I think... it's time to use it."
Her expression calmed down, and Xilin regained her composure when Jiang Wan said this, and switched to normal Dr. Lin mode.
"Have you thought about it?"
The first time the two met was when Jiang Wan was about to be taken away, and Shilin, who couldn't stand it anymore, took the initiative to communicate with her.
At that time, the witch on the top floor made a promise to the newborn angel who was still confused.
[Help within a reasonable scope.]
【When you think about it, tell me again. 】
At that time, Jiang Wan chose to keep it, but now she shamelessly wants to pray for Dr. Lin's help.
"Um."
Shirin didn't feel anything embarrassed about this. It was just what she agreed to do, so she chuckled and said:
"Then let's talk about it, if I can do it."
The arms holding her knees were slightly gathered together, Jiang Wan wanted to shrink her body completely, and whispered:
"I want to ask you to help me..."
Taking a deep breath, her face was full of unwillingness, but Jiang Wan still tried her best to say the last words:
"...Protect Ning Feng."
It was very difficult to say this. After Jiang Wan finished speaking, her frown relaxed, and her whole body seemed to have been relieved of a huge psychological burden.
On the contrary, Shirin, who was smiling before, gradually frowned.
Looking at Jiang Wan, she asked with some confusion:
"Why?"
It's not that I'm asking why Jiang Wan used the precious opportunity for this, Shilin can understand.
But it's very strange, why did you choose to become stronger and protect him at the beginning, but now you choose to plead with others?
Jiang Wan understood what Xilin meant, lowered her head and said:
"I don't want to leave this matter to others, but I... don't have the power."
"If he were an ordinary person, I would have enough power to protect him now."
"But Ning Feng's awakening is successful. He will grow up soon. It won't be long before he can truly step into the battlefield and walk into those dangerous places..."
"And now I don't have enough strength."
As a warrior, Jiang Wan is not afraid of her own death, and she never retreats when faced with an enemy stronger than herself.
What is Jiang Wan afraid of?
What she was afraid of was that even if she tried her best, even at the expense of herself, she would not be able to protect Ning Feng's future.
For this reason, after struggling with pain, she chose to seek help from others.
However, no response was received.
"Let's change it."
But Jiang Wan was destined to be disappointed. After thinking for a while, Xilin shook her head and sighed:
"I'm afraid this will disappoint you."
"I can't promise you that I can't always stay by his side and watch over him."
She also seriously considered the feasibility of this matter, but in the end Shirin could only say regretfully:
"Unless he never leaves here, I can guarantee that, but do you really think he can stay?"
Will a person with extremely outstanding talents and secrets be trapped in a place like Bincheng forever, which is not small at all but not big at all?
impossible.
Even if he wanted to stay, fate would push him away.
What's more, with Shilin's understanding of Ning Feng, she can understand the flame called ambition in his eyes.
Although, the ambition at that time was to treat me as private property...
"So, let's change it. I can't do this."
and……
Looking at Jiang Wan with a downcast expression, Xilin laughed at herself and said to herself:
Even if you don't say anything about protecting him, I will do it.
call!
Jiang Wan took a long breath and patted her cheek hard.
Snap!
"alright!"
The gloom on her face was swept away, and Jiang Wan hid her inner uneasiness and resumed her previous laughter.
"Oh, others are still unreliable, so I have to rely on myself!"
"Then let me work hard to become stronger, keep him under me, and protect him!"
Shireen:......?
Why does this sound so weird?
Returning to their usual attitude towards getting along, both of them tried to forget what had happened just now as an episode.
With a faint smile, Jiang Wan tilted her head and asked Xilin:
"Since you don't believe it, can you help me find out the truth about that incident? About...the accident that made Ning Feng and I become orphans?"
She emphasized the word "accident" very strongly.
Xilin looked at Jiang Wan carefully for a while and found that she had hidden her previous emotions very well and there was no serious problem anymore.
Nodding, Shirin didn't pay much attention to this matter.
"That's fine, but why did you suddenly think of it at this time?"
After all these years, even if I find the answer now, what’s the point?
"As for the reason, it may be because I met an impossible person some time ago. His appearance made me very painful and angry at the time."
Calmly, with no trace of the almost collapse of her homework, Jiang Wan murmured to herself:
"But at the same time, another thought came to my mind...even if he appears, is there a possibility that they are still alive?"
Jiang Wan really doesn't think that people who can leave the badge of that level of trial are just ordinary people.
"There's no problem with this matter. I'll find someone to help you investigate...Huh? What's wrong with you?"
Nodding, Xilin was halfway through speaking when she suddenly noticed that Jiang Wan's expression became serious.
What happened?
Her face was extremely solemn, Jiang Wan's eyes were a little wandering, and she said slowly:
"I feel that a bad woman is approaching Ning Feng..."
Shireen:???
what are you talking about!?
…
…
"Captain!? How are you...?"
Bang!
Kicking open the door, a nervous Chu Yu burst into the room. Just as he was about to rush towards Margaret, he suddenly stopped.
!!!
The scene in the room was far from what she had imagined.
There was no smell of blood in the air, but a faint sweet fragrance.
The captain was tied tightly to the hospital bed, holding a piece of broken foot in his mouth. He was struggling painfully and kept hitting the bed board with his body.
A man was sitting on the edge of the bed in a comfortable posture, flipping through an unknown book in his hand with one hand, and had no reaction to Margaret's appearance.
"What are you doing!?"
Even if he guessed that there was a hidden secret, Chu Yu still couldn't help shouting.
What's happening here!?
Ning Feng, who had been sitting reading, finally raised his head and smiled at the panicked Chu Yu.
"Hello, I think you can see that your captain needs a little help."
Chu Yu looked at this unfamiliar man, observed the captain's appearance, and said:
"Why did you seal her mouth?"
"If she doesn't stuff something, I'm worried that Ms. Margaret will bite off her tongue. After all, she just..."
With that said, Ning Feng took off his sleeves and showed Chu Yu the wound on his forearm that was still slowly healing.
It was an adult's tooth mark wound, which was so deep that it penetrated the bones.
"I think this should clear my suspicion."
Although it was me who induced her to bite her.
After saying that, Ning Feng was about to put down his sleeves, but Chu Yu said:
"No, not yet?"
oh?
Ning Feng was a little surprised. Based on his own feelings, he didn't think Chu Yu was a person who would make things difficult for him like this?
Step by step, Chu Yu walked closer to Ning Feng.
She first glanced at the captain who was still struggling unconsciously, and then looked at Ning Feng's wounds.
Taking out many potions from his pocket, Chu Yu avoided Ning Feng's eyes and whispered:
"Your wound needs to be treated. There is special fire poison in the captain's teeth. Even the awakened ones will be harmed."
Let Chu Yu treat his wounds, Ning Feng did not refuse, but quietly looked at her side face, waiting for the next step.
Sure enough, Chu Yu did not disappoint him and whispered:
"Sorry, it was my bad attitude just now."
Ning Feng shook his head nonchalantly and said with a smile:
"It's okay, it's understandable."
"I don't know if it's my imagination..."
Looking at Chu Yu, Ning Feng asked softly with some confusion:
