Chapter 603: Kicked Out from the Operating Room for Talking Too Much
Sun Ning wasn’t a bad person and wouldn’t cause any trouble. With Moore’s permission, Sun Ning quickly left to follow a nurse for disinfection, changed into surgical attire, and entered the operating room.
“Are you sure that man is reliable?” Chu Yunxuan asked, watching the slick-talking man, still uncertain if he would cause Wen Xin any trouble.
“He’s a medical genius from the Independent State, highly skilled and not affiliated with any family. There’s no danger,” Moore said, shifting his gaze from the operating room to look at Wales and Chu Yunxuan.
“I need to capture the second son of the Jason family for the little princess to prevent any extreme actions after her surgery. You two stay here. The Tang family will arrive soon, and my men are outside, ensuring your safety.”
“I’m off, ” Moore said.
“Alright, you go ahead. We’ll stay here,” Chu Yunxuan nodded, acknowledging Moore’s deep understanding of Wen Xin. “Be careful.”
After treating Mu Chengxi’s broken bones, Wen Xin began suturing. Exhaustion made her body sway slightly.
A large hand supported her from behind, taking the suture clamp from her.
“Rest for a bit. I’ll handle this. I’ll try to make the stitches look nice,” said a man with familiar eyes.
Wen Xin didn’t speak, moved to a nearby shelf, and picked up a prepared ointment to treat Mu Chengxi’s back wounds. The nurse had cleaned the wound thoroughly, and fresh blood oozed out. Wen Xin gently applied the ointment.
Two hours later, Wen Xin had finished treating Mu Chengxi’s wounds with the nurse’s help, wrapping him in bandages like a mummy.
“His injuries were severe. It’s a miracle he survived. When I saw him, he was barely alive. Hearing your name gave him the strength to survive,” Sun Ning said, looking up at Wen Xin.
“Did you inject him with the experimental drugs?” she asked, raising an eyebrow.
“What else? Speaking of which, I have to speak up on Alfredo’s behalf. While he was under house arrest, all his powers were revoked. He struggled to send me to the warehouse at Beikou Cloud Top,” Sun Ning explained.
“But he didn’t give up on you, even taking a bullet for you. You—”
Before Sun Ning could finish, he felt a tingling sensation all over, silencing him. He gestured at his mouth, questioning what happened.
“You talk too much. Wait outside. I’ll undo the seal when I’m done,” Wen Xin said, focusing on Mu Chengxi’s final treatment. She only wanted to thank him, uninterested in other matters.
Seeing Wen Xin’s scarlet eyes, Sun Ning opened his mouth but remained silent, leaving reluctantly.
After Sun Ning left, Wen Xin cleared the operating room of the other staff.
She sat beside the operating table, took out a red velvet box, and looked at Mu Chengxi’s pale face with a gentle smile.
“I wanted to return this ancient jade to Moore as a thank you for helping rescue you. But now, I’ll use its energy to heal your wounds. I hope you recover.”
Placing the jade in Mu Chengxi’s hand, Wen Xin watched his complexion change slightly.
Sun Ning exited the operating room with a grim expression. Chu Yunxuan quickly approached him. “How is Mu Chengxi? And Wen Xin?”
Sun Ning, irritated, pointed to his mouth and shook his head, then sat on a bench, feeling frustrated. Despite saving lives, he was rendered mute for talking too much. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
Chu Yunxuan, understanding, found Wen Xin’s temper troubling. “Don’t worry, she’ll fix it when she comes out. She just has a bad temper,” she apologized to Sun Ning.
Sun Ning sat silently, fiddling with his fingers, clearly uninterested in talking.
Feeling helpless, Chu Yunxuan closed her mouth, not wanting to irritate Sun Ning further.
When Moore arrived at the new Jason family estate, the scene was more tragic than he had anticipated, despite expecting it.
“Earl, you’re here…” The bald man hesitated, unsure why Moore obeyed Wen Xin, yet fearful of Moore’s status.
“I’ll give you my phone. What’s the situation?” Moore asked, handing over the phone and looking towards the estate.
“Heavy casualties, still uncalculated. So far, three people rescued, including the eldest son of the Jason family.”
“And the second son?”
“Still in the main building’s second floor, not yet rescued. Will probably take some time.”
Hearing this, Moore raised an eyebrow. “Keep an eye on things. I’ll head back.”
“Wait,” Moore said, turning back to the bald man and whispering, “What about Mr. Mu’s investigation? Any information?”
