"Yes~."
Long Ying called Lan Huo and the latter brought a bowl of porridge in. Yu Yan ate first before she slept again, clearly feeling tired.
On the other hand, Long Ying still stayed awake for some time before he decided to sleep too. He had some matters that he had to settle before he could rest. The day passed swiftly and there was not much disturbance. With his uncle taking care of the Dragon Clan, Long Ying could stay at ease.
He was someone who knew how to take care of the clan well as he had guarded it for decades before Long Ying was even born.
In the morning, Long Ying got report from San Xia and An Luo regarding their performance.
"Boss, we have already finished cleaning up the group.. Some of the higher ranked members are sent to Jail A and will spend their lives there," An Luo reported everything calmly.
"The base?"
"We have planted the bombs from Han Kuai and exploded it not long ago. There are no longer any trace of them anymore."
"Good." Long Ying hung up the phone and leaned on his chair. His father would not make enemies all of the sudden without any reason. There must be a deal that the group was involved in that attracted his father's attention.
But with the way Long Shao Huai not trusting him and even treated him like unimportant pieces of chess, Long Ying knew that he wouldn't be able to get any information from his father. If he wanted any information, he would either have to search from outside source or to ask his brother.
An Luo would definitely interrogate those high ranking members to find out just what matters would make his father made a move.
Knock! Knock!
"Boss, this is the report that's left behind by the doctor who treat your wife at first." Lan Huo walked in with a folder in his hand.
Long Ying narrowed his eyes when he saw the message at the top of the folder. It was stated that he should never tell his wife the result unless she insisted and he was sure that she was ready for it. Was it so serious?
Taking the document out, Long Ying skimmed it before he paused at one point. The sentence that was written there was more than enough to cause his heart to drop at the freezing point. Right now… he really wished that he had stopped his father before the former could make a move.
Even if he had to cut ties, he would do it just so that he could provide safe place for his wife. But he was the one in charge of so many people's life. Abandoning his position on a whim would be completely impossible.
"Boss?"
"Has anyone else see this report?" Long Ying asked. He turned the page over and saw the detailed treatment method. His eyes turned even darker as he read the medicines required and everything.
Lan Huo shook his head. The doctor had stated that the report must be given to Long Ying directly and thus, Lan Huo didn't dare to let anyone see it. He was sure that there must be something inside the report that was sensitive and thus, only Long Ying was allowed to know.
"Good. Give me a match."
Long Ying tore one of the pages away. He really wished that he could mince those people to pieces for what they had done.
"Long Ying."
The voice stopped Long Ying's action. He turned his head to look at the bed and saw Yu Yan had woken up. Her eyes were looking at the folder in his hand. Their distance was not far from each other but it shouldn't have been possible for her to even see the word that was written on the folder because it was simply too small.
However, her clear eyes made it impossible for Long Ying to hide it.
"What's that paper about?" Yu Yan woke up about a minute ago, thus she knew that Lan Huo had walked in and talked to Long Ying about some report. When she heard him talked about giving him a match, she knew that he wanted to destroy the report in his hand.
But why?
Long Ying pursed his lips. "It's nothing."
"You're lying."
Just like Long Ying would know when Yu Yan was lying, she could also tell when he was lying. The two of them were best friend for three years and some habits remained the same. The fact that they used to watch each other's expression showed that they had started to pay attention, thus allowing them to know when one of them was lying or had some other feelings.
Not everything could be guessed but major expression will be easily found out. One's gesture and habit would not change so quickly and these two were already familiar with each other.
Long Ying didn't answer. He was itching to burn the paper right away so that Yu Yan will never see it but if she made an appointment to a doctor on her own, she would know about this matter.
What should he do?
"Long Ying?" Yu Yan asked.
"Sorry, I can't let you see it." Long Ying shook his head. He would rather bear the guilt alone then let her see this.
Yu Yan narrowed her eyes. It must be serious if he didn't want her to even look at it. "Tell me about it, Long Ying."
Long Ying squinted his eyes, wishing that Yu Yan would not be so stubborn. He glanced at Lan Huo, who took it as the que for him to get out of the room. There was very little matter that could make Long Ying so angry, so Lan Huo didn't want to challenge his Boss's patience.
Scrutinizing her own body's condition, Yu Yan tried to recall everything that occurred. Even though she hated to go through the memory again, she knew that it must be related to her.
Was it her mind?
She did feel her head was hurt but it shouldn't be enough to turn her into idiots. In addition, she didn't lose any memory from her childhood until adult. There didn't seem to be any pieces of memory that was missing… but then again, she could not remember every single details.
Her back was also hurt… was it her spine? If she was not wrong, spine was related to nerve and if it was damaged, there was chance that someone might not be able to move one of their body part ever again. However, Yu Yan had been moving around well during the time she was awake.
Granted, her back was hurt, but she could move her arm and legs just fine.
Then what?
Yu Yan was scrutinizing Long Ying's expression as he was struggling the urge to burn the paper and also to answer her question. His position was awkward and there was clear mental struggle.
It then dawned to Yu Yan…
She got hit on the stomach when the man kicked her away and also during the time at the van. At that time, she didn't pay much attention to it but the doctor did say that her stomach was also hurt, thus she was not suitable to lie down with her stomach below.
Did it mean….
"Long Ying, did I can't…"
Long Ying knew that Yu Yan already guessed it within the second he asked Lan Huo to get out. He gritted his teeth as he couldn't bear to speak it and silently stood up before moving to Yu Yan's side. his hand, that was holding the thin paper was trembling. Right now, he felt as if the paper weight more than 1 ton even though it didn't even reach 1 gram.
The paper moved hands.
Looking at the words written on the paper, Yu Yan didn't speak. Tears started to stream out from the corner of her eyes.
"Sorry…I'm sorry, Yan'er." Long Ying reached out his hand and hugged Yu Yan tightly. He could feel her small body trembled but he couldn't say anything else.
It was his fault to involve Yu Yan in this matter.
Yu Yan didn't speak and the paper in her hand fell down to the floor. She silently cried as she grabbed Long Ying's hand tightly. Right now, she understood that her recklessness was stupid in its own and her weakness was the mistake.
If only she was stronger and had better capabilities, she would not get hurt so easily.
The paper fluttered for a moment before it fell on the cold floor. The top of the paper was detailing Yu Yan's name and personal information. Below her personal information was some technical result of the examination that was also filled with many medical terms.
At the bottom of the paper was the note that the doctor made. It only contained two sentences. The first one was explaining the result of the examination above and the conclusion. The second one was:
"…Based on the examination result, there's a chance that she will not be able to have children anymore."
