Chapter 200. Countdown
When the door opened, appearing in the main room, the elderly couple was already certain it was their son’s voice, still calling out, seemingly in unbearable agony.
A grown man making such a sound made Hua Chengtian’s father’s temples throb with anger, prompting him to curse, "Useless."
Hua Chengtian’s voice faded away, simply because Silver covered his mouth.
"His father?" Silver was also startled, and upon hearing her mother-in-law’s voice outside, she instinctively covered her husband’s mouth.
"Keep it down, don’t wake up Mom and Dad." Silver glanced guiltily toward the door, feeling even more guilty seeing her husband’s pained grimace.
The action was a bit heavy-handed just now, but anyone waking up to find someone next to them would be quite startled, and wanting to eliminate the danger was instinctive.
Hua Chengtian also heard his parents’ voices and stopped making noise despite the pain, giving his wife a reproachful look; if he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have feared waking his wife last night.
"Ouch," Hua Chengtian clutched his chest, thinking how his wife’s strength had grown again, truly making him feel... hurt.
"Did I hurt you, child’s father? It’s my fault, I should have checked more carefully. Are you alright?" After her initial guilt, seeing her husband’s pained appearance, Silver also began to feel heartache, fumbling with the clothes to check, even though it was too dark in the room to see anything.
"What’s wrong?" Upon vaguely hearing voices inside, especially sounding like his son’s voice, Hua Chengtian’s father couldn’t help but call out.
