Chapter 112: You don’t have to offend your good friends for my sake (1 more update)
Qiao Youning saw the young man brought into the ward and immediately perked up, her eyes blazing.
It was him! He was the man Ning Guiwan had toyed with and then discarded! Her fifth brother hadn’t believed what she said. But now, with the person right here as proof, let’s see if Fifth Brother would still side with that wicked woman!
In the ward, Quan Yu and Qiao Yishen were both present. Quan Yu sat on a chair beside the hospital bed, a laptop resting on his legs. Qiao Yishen leaned against the foot railing of the companion bed, his legs crossed and his arm propped on the rail, a faint smile on his lips.
Qiao Youning’s heart pounded tumultuously, barely containing her excitement as she clenched her fists tightly, waiting for Ning Guiwan’s indiscretions to be exposed.
Ning Guiwan’s brow was slightly furrowed, her makeup-free face sickly pale.
"Speak," Qiao Yishen said in a leisurely tone.
"Speak? Speak about what?" The youth standing in the middle of the ward tried to appear calm, but his trembling legs betrayed his nervousness.
He had been enjoying himself gambling with the money when several people suddenly barged in and captured him. He had tried to resist, but it was clear his captors were well-trained, and he stood no chance against them.
Seeing the girl on the hospital bed, he began to guess why he had been brought here.
But he hadn’t done anything excessive. With this thought, he felt somewhat emboldened. He hadn’t done anything, so these people couldn’t do anything to him.
However, the mental fortitude he had prepared collapsed in an instant when he met the gaze of the silent man beside the bed. The men who had seized him had looked fierce and frightening, but this quiet man seemed even more terrifying.
He recalled a rather inappropriate saying: a barking dog never bites... What kind of crappy metaphor is that?
