Chapter 440: Return

The fire was wrapped in thick smoke.

Li Yanchen’s pupils constricted violently.

Before he could react, the 9th sub-castle let out a loud bang.

“Huo Hannian!”

Li Yanchen shouted, his entire body sent flying by the immense force.

His ears were buzzing. Before he could react, the surrounding auxiliary castles had been blown to the ground.

Li Yanchen was injured. He stood up from the ground with difficulty and looked at the devastated island. His handsome face was tense.

After Castle No. 9 was blown up, they did not even have a chance to find it. It quickly collapsed, and seawater surged up.

Li Yanchen’s legs went weak. His subordinates came over and dragged him away.

Soon, the place where he was standing was submerged by the sea.

Zuo Yi carried Yun Zang to a safe place and came over. When he saw that Li Yanchen was alone, his pupils constricted.” Young Master Li, where’s our Young Master?””

Li Yanchen closed his eyes and instructed in a hoarse voice,” Quickly arrange for someone to search the sea!”

Although he knew that Huo Hannian was doomed, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he could not give up!

When Zuo Yi heard Li Yanchen’s words, a chill ran down his spine and his face turned pale.

Boom, a loud noise of the capital sounded.

Wen Ruan woke up from a nightmare.

A thin layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead as she looked out of the window.

Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. A storm was about to descend.

For the past two days, she could not sleep well. She had a vague feeling that something was about to happen!

He turned on the lights and took out his phone from the bedside table.

It had been three days since Huo Hannian had given her the note.

He never contacted her again.

That day, the note said,”Fake score. I know she has bad intentions. I will deal with it as soon as possible. We will temporarily be strangers!”

She didn’t know what he had found out. Why would he tell her that Su Ruoxi was up to no good?

However, he had a bad feeling about it.

He had said on the note that they would be strangers for the time being.

If she took the initiative to contact him, she would probably ruin his plan!

Wen Ruan got out of bed and walked to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of warm water.

Not long after, bean-sized raindrops fell.

It hit the window and made crackling sounds.

Wen Ruan stood in front of the window and looked at the city that was gradually blurred by the mist. The uneasiness in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

Wen Ruan stood in front of the window for a long time.

The sky started to brighten. Her body moved, and her legs went numb from standing.

She walked to the sofa and lay down.

Her phone rang.

Wen Ruan was slightly puzzled when she saw Ye Qingyu’s call.

Yu ‘er rarely called her early in the morning. Was there something important?

Wen Ruan did not dare to delay and immediately pressed the answer button.

Ruan Ruan, come to the city hospital!”

Wen Ruan’s heart skipped a beat.” What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?””

“It wasn’t me. I just received a call from Li Yanchen. He asked me to call you and tell you to go to the hospital as soon as possible!”

Wen Ruan didn’t ask any further questions. She hung up the phone after acknowledging her words.

After changing her clothes and washing up, Wen Ruan drove to the hospital without stopping.

Ye Qingyu arrived a few minutes earlier than Wen Ruan. She was waiting at the entrance of the inpatient department. When she saw Wen Ruan, she quickly walked over.” Ruan Ruan, you’re here!””

Wen Ruan nodded.” What exactly happened? Was it Huo Hannian, he…”

Speaking of Huo Hannian, Ruan Ruan hated and loved him at the same time.

After Su Ruoxi came back, he had indeed hurt her heart.

Even though she later found out that he might have been acting, he did not tell her in advance, which still made her cry a lot for him.

She was so angry!

He had also thought about how she would give him the cold shoulder for a while after he settled this matter, or that they would be separated for a while.

Let him have a taste of sadness!

However, the thought of him being injured made her anxious.

Whether she hated him or was angry with him, she hoped that he could live well!

Ye Qingyu held Wen Ruan’s hand.” We’ll know when we go up.”

When Ye Qingyu received Li Yanchen’s call, she was still sleeping. In her daze, she was a little impatient because she had been woken up. It was only when Li Yanchen said that he was in the hospital and asked her to quickly inform Wen Ruan to go to the hospital that she was completely awake.

Li Yanchen’s voice sounded a little weak on the phone, unlike his usual cold voice. She did not dare to neglect him and immediately called Wen Ruan.

Ye Qingyu brought Wen Ruan to the VIP ward on the sixth floor.

After finding the room number Li Yanchen mentioned, Ye Qingyu and Wen Ruan stopped and looked inside through the window.

There were many people standing in the ward. A thin figure was lying on the hospital bed, but she was blocked by someone and could not see her face clearly.

Ye Qingyu knocked on the door.

The door was opened by Li Yanchen’s confidant.” Young Madam.””

Ye Qingyu hummed awkwardly when she heard the words ” Young Madam “. She then whispered,” Just call me Qingyu!””

She and Li Yanchen were secretly married, and she had never met his family. She did not deserve the title of Young Mistress.

While Ye Qingyu was talking to Li Yanchen’s confidant, Wen Ruan walked into the ward.

After the doctor and nurse finished examining the person on the bed, they retreated. Wen Ruan saw a thin woman lying on the bed and walked over to take a closer look.

His pupils suddenly contracted violently.

Wen Ruan covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes filled with disbelief.

His legs were a little weak as he walked to the bed. He lay on the bed and held the woman’s skinny hand.

“Yes. Mom?”

The woman slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were as calm as water. When she saw Wen Ruan’s appearance, waves surged in her eyes.

She held Wen Ruan’s hand, her voice hoarse.

Seeing that the woman could not speak, Wen Ruan held her hand and quickly took her pulse.

Women had many problems, big and small.

She couldn’t speak, so she must have been drugged.

Wen Ruan’s heart was still beating wildly and she could not calm down. She glanced at the woman and ran into the bathroom to wash her face with cold water.

He forced himself to calm down and took her pulse again.

Five minutes later, Wen Ruan borrowed a pen washi from the nurse.

She wrote a prescription and handed it to Li Yanchen’s trusted aide.” Can you help me buy some medicine and boil it?””

“Sure.”

Wen Ruan thanked him and walked back to the bedside.

Her eyes were red as she looked at the woman. Her lips trembled as she said,” Mom, I’m Ruan Ruan.””

Although she had never seen her mother since she was young, the moment she saw her, she did not feel unfamiliar. On the contrary, she felt very close and warm.

Yun Zao raised her thin hand and wiped the tears off Wen Ruan’s face. She then shook her head at Wen Ruan, indicating for her to stop crying.

Wen Ruan buried her face in Yun Zang’s palm. She was so excited and happy that she could not calm down for a long time.

Yun Zang’s body was still very weak after all, and he fell asleep not long after he woke up.

Wen Ruan stared at her sleeping face for a while before walking out of the ward. When she saw Ye Qingyu standing in the corridor, she asked anxiously,” Where’s Young Master Li? Where was my mother found? And Huo Hannian, is he in the hospital too?””
