Chapter 602: His Little Princess Risking Everything for Another Man
Alfredo, pale and lying in bed after his wounds had been treated, snapped his eyes open when he heard the bald man’s words.
“What happened? Did something happen to Wen Xin?”
“No, it’s not about Miss Wen. Two unidentified missiles landed in Independent State. One hit the port, and the other hit the new estate of the Jason family. They were all there yesterday for a housewarming celebration. The casualties are unknown.”
Hearing this, Alfredo shot up from his bed, ignoring the pain in his shoulder. His eyes were filled with rage.
“She… she actually did it… Where is she now?”
Alfredo, clutching his shoulder with one hand and supporting himself on the bed with the other, prepared to get up. He couldn’t feel the pain in his shoulder anymore, only the ache in his heart.
He never imagined his little princess would risk everything for another man.
“I don’t know, but I do know she captured Dr. Sun Ning.”
The bald man kept his head down, hesitant to say more. Dr. Sun Ning was someone the chairman had gone to great lengths to send to Mu Chengxi to save his life.
Yet, Miss Wen didn’t appreciate it. Instead of being grateful, she captured him. It’s really hard to understand.
“I sent someone to help her, and she captured him? Doesn’t she want Mu Chengxi to live?”
Alfredo, clutching his shoulder, angrily got out of bed. He couldn’t understand Wen Xin’s actions, finding them more absurd by the moment.
“No, Miss Wen personally treated Mr. Mu. Her medical skills are incredible. Mr. Mu was practically dead, and she brought him back.”
This was the message Sun Ning had sent back. His tone was filled with shock, far more than what the bald man expressed. The bald man didn’t want to agitate Alfredo further.
After hearing this, Alfredo smiled bitterly. “She would risk everything for that man, yet she wouldn’t do the same for me. What a huge difference…”
“Go check on the Jason family. It won’t be long before the other elders come to us. Tell them not to provoke anyone they shouldn’t. The Jason family’s situation serves as a bloody warning.”
“Remember to push the blame onto Mu Chengxi. Wen Xin is the heiress of Independent State; she wouldn’t do anything to harm it.”
After giving these instructions, Alfredo lay back on his bed, feeling a sharp pain in his chest.
He had always known he held no place in Wen Xin’s heart. He comforted himself, thinking her past made her unwilling to trust anyone or show emotions.
However, Mu Chengxi’s appearance shattered all his illusions. It wasn’t that she couldn’t love; she just didn’t love him.
The bald man, seeing Alfredo’s desolate expression, clenched his hands at his sides. He couldn’t understand why Miss Wen wouldn’t even spare a glance at such a good man. Was his master not better than that pretty boy?
“Go handle things. No one from Independent State or the Tang family should trouble Wen Xin. We can’t afford the consequences of her anger. She feels only hate for Independent State and is capable of anything.”
Alfredo knew Wen Xin’s hatred and disgust for Independent State. If not for her unwillingness to harm innocent people, she would have destroyed it long ago.
Two bombs hitting Independent State not only destroyed the homes of those bad people but also made everyone in Independent State anxious. This was the second time bombs had struck.
There had been no explanation or statement the first time. But now, people were beginning to sense the danger.
The helicopter landed smoothly on the Tang hospital rooftop. Medical staff rushed Mu Chengxi to the operating room while Wen Xin hurried for disinfection.
She wouldn’t entrust Mu Chengxi’s care to anyone else. As long as she was there, she wouldn’t let anything happen to him.
In the operating room, Mu Chengxi’s injuries were severe. His back was especially horrific. The nurse cleaning his wounds couldn’t bear to continue.
“Make sure the wounds are thoroughly cleaned.”
Wen Xin, assessing Mu Chengxi’s condition, frowned at the nurse’s hesitation and spoke in a cold tone. She needed to ensure his wounds were clean before proceeding with further treatment.
Outside the operating room, Sun Ning sat leisurely on a hallway bench, not attempting to resist. He simply looked down at his phone, seemingly unconcerned.
Chu Yunxuan understood how Wen Xin had endured these past days. She had seen Mu Chengxi’s injuries firsthand and worried that Wen Xin might exhaust herself. She needed Nan Xu to come and help.
“My friend, how’s the arrangement I asked you to make?” Chu Yunxuan whispered to Moore, inquiring about getting Nan Xu into Independent State.
Moore understood her intent and shook his head with a frown. “If it weren’t for those two bombs, I might have found a way. But now, it’s impossible. Don’t worry, the Tang hospital’s medical team is very capable.”
Moore was trying to arrange for Wen Xin’s friend to come and help but couldn’t now as Independent State had shut all access points. Without Wen Xin’s direct intervention, there was no way.
“Hey, Moore, we’ve known each other for years. If that girl doesn’t trust me, that’s one thing. But you, too? I don’t have a grudge against him. I’m willing to help the girl. What do you think?”
Sun Ning suddenly stood up, putting his phone away. He admired Wen Xin’s medical skills, noting how her hands remained steady even in her panic. If it were him, he doubted he could do the same.
He respected her and wanted to see how she treated such a severely injured man.
Everyone turned to look at Sun Ning when he spoke.
His calm demeanor surprised Chu Yunxuan and Wales. They sensed he was not a simple man.
Moore hesitated briefly before speaking. “Don’t try any tricks. The little princess in there isn’t someone you can mess with.”
“You doubt me? You should see that I don’t want trouble. I just want to save lives. Healing is my duty…”
“Alright, alright, we usually don’t see you so dedicated. Patients have to come to your house to seek your help, and we still don’t see you treating or saving lives. Just keep quiet.”
