Xi Muyao clenched both his hands tightly as he sat on the bench outside the operation room.

The red light during the operation continued to shine. Xi Muyao looked at the tightly shut door and his thin lips formed a straight line.

He looked down at the polished toes of his shoes and ran his hands through his thick black hair.

Boss Xi!" The chauffeur, who was silently standing by the side, suddenly called out to him. Xi Muyao raised his head and looked over. It was unknown whether it was a nurse or a doctor, but he wore a light blue-green surgical gown. His face was covered by a mask, leaving only a pair of eyes behind him.

"Doctor," Xi Muyao stood up immediately, with his long legs, he blocked the way in front of the person, "How is the pregnant woman inside?"

"He's still in the process of being saved with all his might." The man anxiously threw down his words, went around Xi Muyao and left.

Xi Muyao held his breath as he walked back and forth. Finally, he stopped at the foot of the wall, put his hands in his pockets and stood upright facing the wall.

The palm placed in his pocket was covered in a thin layer of sweat as it stuck to his palm.

He did not know how long he stood there like this, but just when Xi Muyao felt that his legs were stiff and unconscious, a "ding" sound rang.

The nurse pushed Lin Yeyan out of the operation room quickly.

Lin Yeyan who was lying straight on the sickbed had a pale complexion. His hair was drenched in sweat, and a strand of it was stuck to his hair, falling onto the pillow.

The similarly pale blanket was stretched out horizontally on top of Lin Yeyan's body, and did not move up and down.

The doctor's mask was still over his ears, he took off his medical gloves and looked at Xi Muyao with a heavy gaze.

Xi Muyao nodded his head, his black eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings.

The child was not saved.

When Xi Muyao signed the agreement for the operation, he was informed that the pregnant woman was in danger, and the baby was not even a month old, so he might not be able to protect it.

Pregnant women were the top priority.

These were Xi Muyao's exact words.

He was not a cold-blooded and heartless person. He did not hate Lin Yeyan, he just did not like her.

Even if he was injured by an old man he didn't know, he would not hesitate to help. What's more, this woman was pregnant with her own child. Even if her goal was not simple, he couldn't just sit by and watch her die.

The child was gone, and there could still be another, not to mention the fact that he didn't expect her child at all.

He tolerated all of Lin Yeyan's unrelated requests. He used her to test Lu Qingli's sincerity, and she obtained the money she wanted, a beautiful life.

They owed each other nothing, and perhaps they would each go one way or the other in the near future. He couldn't let her die. He owed her his life.

Now it was all entangled.

Xi Muyao's ten fingers interlocked, as he leaned back on the sofa with his body and mind exhausted. In front of him was the still unconscious Lin Yeyan.

The strength of the anesthetic had not passed yet. Lin Yeyan could wake up at any moment.

On the small table beside the sofa, the green lunchbox had yet to be opened but it was already chilly.

Xiao Wu quietly walked in from outside the sickroom. He glanced at the take-out food, and held onto a document with both of his hands. He carefully called out, "President Xi..."

Xi Muyao suddenly regained his senses.

He pinched his temple, and looked at Xiao Wu with blurry eyes, his voice slightly hoarse: "What is it!"

"This is a new project from KampG, do you see?" Xiao Wu respectfully asked for Xi Muyao's opinion.

Xi Muyao didn't go to pick it up, but said it straightforwardly: "Call them back, and have them do it again."

The secretary frowned awkwardly, "President Xi, you haven't looked at it yet?"

"Go back to work, do it again!" Xi Muyao enunciated word by word with determination, his dark eyes sparkling with a glimmer of light.

The secretary put away the folder, bowed slightly, and walked out quickly and quietly.
