When Tan Yubai woke up, he found himself in the hospital's sickbed. He looked up and met Shen Nian's eyes.
Tan Yubai was truly thirsty. He propped himself up using his arms to lean on the headboard and take the cup from Shen Nian.
"You and I don't need to be so polite."
After drinking the water, he placed the cup of water on the table beside the bed, and lifted the blanket to get up.
"What are you doing?" Shen Nian was worried, she wanted to reach out to help him, but unfortunately, it was inconvenient for her body, so she did not have the energy.
"Discharge." When Tan Yubai said this, he had already changed his shoes.
"You need to stay in the hospital for a few more days to observe your stomach bleeding!"
"I know my own body." Tan Yubai didn't plan to walk on his own, but to push Shen Nian's wheelchair out from the hospital.
They took a taxi back to Dihao Community.
"You …" Shen Nian sensed that Tan Yubai was abnormal, and on the way, he kept silent with furrowed brows. It must be because of some secret decision in his heart.
After entering the villa, the interior of the house was empty and quiet. There was no one in the house, nor could there be anyone in the house.
Tan Yubai left Shen Nian at the profound entrance and went to the second floor before he could change his shoes.
Shen Nian's doubts remained. Sitting in the wheelchair, she arrived at the living room and raised her head to look around. Tan Yubai had already walked down from the second floor.
In his hand, there was something black.
It wasn't until he walked in that Shen Nian could see that it was nothing else but a handgun.
It was a gun with a silencer.
"What are you doing?"
Shen Nian was shocked, her heart tensed up. Tan Yubai then reloaded the gun and handed it over to her.
"As I said, I will return what I owe you." Tan Yubai said indifferently: "If you block this spear for me, I will return this spear to you."
Silence filled the room. Shen Nian stared at the man in front of her in a daze, the determination in her eyes. After a long while, she raised her trembling hands and received the spear.
"Don't worry, no one will come for you no matter what you do. I've already shut down the room's security system. You can just swagger out. No matter what happens, I won't find you."
After Tan Yubai finished speaking, he closed his eyes completely.
It was also because of these words that caused Shen Nian's heart to feel as if it was on the verge of death's door.
Could it be that all she cared about was whether or not she could escape? Did he really think she had the heart to do something to him? In order to get rid of himself, he had used everything he had.
Heh, now from the looks of it, all of this was simply an enormous joke.
Shen Nian's face was deathly pale and a tear fell from the corner of her eye, containing too much vicissitudes of life and helplessness.
She moved her lips, just as she was about to say something, she suddenly heard Tan Yubai's phone call on the tea table.
It was not a mobile phone, but was installed at home. The host for Siri would normally have anything related to Tan Yubai, such as the transfer of assets, the change of ownership, etc. As long as there was any change in the database, Siri would immediately receive the news.
Tan Yubai did not move as he allowed the phone to ring.
The music made Shen Nian unable to focus on her work, she sighed.
"First, take care of your matters. Then, take care of our matters."
Tan Yubai slowly opened his eyes and walked to the side of the tea table, looking at the flashing red reminder on the table. It had probably been a long time since he left the company, and it had also been a long time since he received any news.
Tan Yubai hesitated for a while before he picked up the call.
"On the 19th day, Yu's legal person Yu Meng transferred Tan Yubai over to him at 10.30 a.m. and transferred 50% of the shares she owned to Tan Yubai."
Tan Yubai was startled.
Why had Yu Meng transferred the company to him?
Tan Yubai had complicated thoughts in his mind as he quickly thought about it. He pressed the green button and ordered the Siri.
"Check to see if Yu Meng found a new legal person. What else did she do?"
"Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep"
A few seconds later, Siri found the information that Tan Yubai needed.
"On the 19th, Yu's's legal person, Yu Meng, transferred 50% of the shares to Yu Fuyan."
As Tan Yubai listened, the crease between his eyebrows became deeper.
Was she giving away all her assets to someone else? Everything was fine, why did she do this?!
The more Tan Yubai thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. A bad premonition arose in his heart, and after a while, he had no time to hesitate as he strode towards the door.
Shen Nian watched as Tan Yubai left, the guns in his hands were all held up to the point of heat, his exquisite face had a self-deprecating smile.
No matter what, as long as it was news about that woman, he wouldn't be able to see anyone else.
Tan Yubai's car drove very fast, and he did not stop to call Yu Meng the whole way, but no one answered.
He was so anxious that he was on the verge of going crazy, yet his car had been speeding around aimlessly. He knew that the news about Siri had arrived.
"After checking, for the last time, Yu Meng's location is in a high-class apartment next to the Yu's Enterprise."
Without hesitating at all, Tan Yubai turned the car around 180 degrees, nearly scaring the cars behind him silly.
On the city streets, Tan Yubai's cars flew over a hundred meters away, all for the sake of sensing Yu Meng's presence.
They had grown up together, and they had telepathy. Tan Yubai felt a fear more and more, and it stopped right at his heart, where it was trembling uncontrollably.
Finally, he drove downstairs to Yu Meng's apartment.
Tan Yubai did not stop for a moment. He was here before.
When he reached the door, the man was panting heavily. He raised his hand and was about to knock on the door when he heard a loud noise coming from inside the room.
Tan Yubai opened his eyes wide, and his heart was in a knot. Without hesitation, he yelled Yu Meng's name and kicked the door open.
"Yu Meng!"
The living room was empty, there were few movements in the bedroom. Tan Yubai rushed in, only to see a woman in a pool of blood.
Yu Meng lay curled up on the ground, her black hair like a sheet of ink covering her back. There was a crimson wound on her slender white wrist, and blood slowly flowed out, dying the area red.
Tan Yubai's heart was beating like thunder, his eyes were red, his hands were trembling as he staggered for a thousand years. He brushed away the black hair on her face and saw her tightly shut eyes and completely bloodless lips.
At that moment, he couldn't even call out her name.
Her body was limp in his embrace, and she was unable to open her eyes no matter what he did.
It was as if this woman had only been so obedient in her entire life.
When the ambulance finally arrived, he saw her lying on the stretcher, slowly out of his sight.
Cold sweat permeated his entire body as he trembled uncontrollably. The scene from a few moments ago replayed in his mind again and again. There had never been such a vivid moment in the decades that he had completely lost all his dreams.
It was as if there was a hand pressing him into a pitch-black glacier. Cold water seeped into his internal organs, limbs, and bones, freezing him to the point of numbness. However, he could not find any light. The only starlight from before had completely dimmed at this moment. All that was left was darkness and an endless coldness.
It was only now that Tan Yubai completely understood why he was still alive and could still feel the light, but it was because he still had Yu Meng by his side.
She was the only starlight in that darkness, the only family he had ever had in all his lonely and cold life.
Tan Yubai once saw death as a very simple, but he thought that it was just a fleeting thought. His life was filled with glory, and he had already seen many life and death situations before, he thought that he was fearless, but now, he was completely engulfed by terror.
Death turned out to be such a heavy and desperate thing. He thought of all the things he had done when he was young. Every single one of them had caused Yu Meng to experience such heaviness and despair day and night.
When he thought here, he finally closed his eyes. He felt regretful in his heart, but it was already too late. Tears finally fell from the corners of his eyes. His face was pale and powerless, as if he was destined to die.
Outside the hospital corridor, Yu Meng had already spent two hours in the emergency room.
She had lost too much blood, and when she was sent to the hospital, she was already on her last breath. Tan Yubai followed the ambulance to the hospital and saw Yu Meng being pushed into the operation room.
Tan Yubai sat on a bench in the corridor as he looked at the door of the emergency room.
"Da Da Da Da Da"
The sound of hurried footsteps came closer and closer.
"Who are you waiting for?"
Shang Hui was still half crippled as he stumbled over, panting nonstop.
He had wanted to go out to get some fresh air, but when he walked to the hall, he saw a person being carried down from the ambulance. The doctor and nurse were all around him so his face couldn't be seen, but he saw Tan Yubai, who was following closely behind him, and his eyes were filled with pain.
Shang Hui only wanted to think of one person that could make him so worried.
Therefore, he had no time to hesitate and quickly followed.
Tan Yubai bent his body and looked up. Shang Hui was still wearing his hospital gown.
He only glanced at it indifferently, then lowered his head in thought, not saying a word.
Although it was just one glance, Shang Hui could clearly see the redness and swelling in Tan Yubai's eyes, as well as the blood on his hands.
The blood …
Shang Hui excitedly grabbed Tan Yubai's wrist and pulled him up from the chair.
"Tell me, is this Yu Meng? Speak!" Speak up! "
Shang Hui's pupils shrank suddenly as the fingers holding onto Tan Yubai gradually became white.
Tan Yubai didn't feel any pain, he only raised his head, with a look of despair in his eyes.
"Yes."
Just one word, had caused Shang Hui to feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
"Why?! What happened to her?! What did you do to her?! " Shang Hui stared at Tan Yubai with hatred, "Is Yu Meng not pitiful enough? Do you think she hasn't suffered enough?! How did you hurt her?! Speak up! "
Shang Hui was filled with anger, he gathered in his left hand and clenched his fist tightly, punching Tan Yubai in the face.
This punch used ninety percent of Shang Hui's strength, hitting him until his head became muddled, and his vision started to blur.
A warm liquid flowed out from his nose, slipped past the corner of his mouth, went along his neck, and Tan Yubai felt a warm feeling flowing into his chest.
He just didn't feel any pain.
"Tan Yubai you bastard!"
Shang Hui roared, punches striking Tan Yubai's body, the intense sound attracted the attention of the nurse, who screamed for security, and only then did she pull Shang Hui away from Tan Yubai.
One of them had his face covered in blood while the other one was glaring furiously.
From beginning to end, Tan Yubai had only said yes, he didn't say a single word, and just allowed Shang Hui to criticize him.
All of this was his fault. He had failed to protect Yu Meng, and he deserved to die.
