Mu Jiu Chen steadied himself and saw Jiang Nuan fall straight down.
She was wearing a white chiffon shirt today, and as Mu Jiu Chen looked, he saw blood seeping from her shoulder.
He suddenly tilted his head up to look, and a man holding a gun bolted away from the window.
Mu Jiu Chen's body trembled, and he rushed to embrace Jiang Nuan who had fallen to the ground.
"Jiang Nuan," Mu Jiu Chen cried out with all his might.
Mu Jiu Chen stood against the light. As he rushed towards Jiang Nuan, the man in the beam of light overlapped with a certain night. Jiang Nuan's pupils trembled. It was him that night.
That was the scene she had seen in her daze, and now the scene was replaying, and she actually recognized Mu Jiu Chen.
No wonder Mu Jiu Chen had been lingering around her. This scoundrel had recognized her from the start.
As she closed her eyes, Jiang Nuan saw the worry and fear surging in the man's deep black eyes.
Damn it, she had sacrificed herself to save the father of her child!
"Jiang Nuan," the heart-wrenching voice echoed in her ears, and then there was no other sound in her mind.
Meng Yuan watched the man leaving upstairs. His hair was slightly grayish, dressed in black clothes and pants, with a mustache, and most notably, he was missing an eye. His ominous and terrifying aura was the exclusive accessory of men.
This man looked familiar. Where had she seen him?
"Jiang Nuan."
Mu Jiu Chen's angry voice snapped Meng Yuan back to her senses. She ran towards Jiang Nuan.
The girl's slender body fell into Mu Jiu Chen's arms, her clear, water-like eyes quietly closed, her fair and rosy skin rapidly turning cold and pale.
"Jiang Nuan, Jiang Nuan," Meng Yuan shook Jiang Nuan, her heart filled with fear.
Yun Xia stood frozen in place, remembering Jiang Nuan's words: "Their target is not Yun Tong."
So, they had abducted her sister to kill someone?
Jiang Nuan or Mu Jiu Chen?!
"Nuan Nuan, don't die, don't you want me anymore? If you die, who will make delicious breakfast for me, who will make beauty and skin care products for me..."
Meng Yuan cried heartbrokenly.
Mu Jiu Chen's mind was still filled with the girl's scream: "Mu Jiu Chen, get out of the way."
Fool, why did you save me?
Mu Jiu Chen looked at the woman with her eyes tightly shut, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He said angrily, "Jiang Nuan, wake up. You have no right to die for me!"
Blood burned from Mu Jiu Chen's arm and dripped onto the ground. He abruptly picked up Jiang Nuan and quickly walked out.
Meng Yuan snapped back to reality and pulled the stunned Yun Xia along with Mu Jiu Chen.
Twenty minutes later, Jiang Nuan was sent to a nearby hospital.
Mu Jiu Chen had also asked Li Qing Shuo to bring doctors from his affiliated hospitals. Jiang Nuan was rushed into the operating room.
Mu Jiu Chen looked down at the bloodstains on the ground and on his body, which were still filled with a strong smell of blood.
Then he looked at the operating room door, and his upright body slowly slid to the ground.
He had already sent Xiao Fan to investigate and capture the culprit. The culprit had come for him.
Nuan Nuan had analyzed it correctly; the target was not Yun Tong at all, but him.
It seemed their every move was within the opponent's grasp.
The opponent knew he was going to see Jiang Nuan this morning because he had called the hotel last night to order crystal dumplings.
And the opponent had captured Yun Tong but hadn't told his father. If his father couldn't find her, he would look for Yun Xia, and Jiang Nuan, Meng Yuan, and Yun Xia lived together.
And he happened to be delivering dumplings in the morning. The opponent had calculated the timing very precisely.
They also guessed Jiang Nuan's importance to him, which was why they had set up such a trap to kill him.
An unprecedented coldness appeared on Mu Jiu Chen's handsome face.
Meng Yuan and Yun Xia, sitting opposite him, felt a chill faintly spreading around them.
Their gazes simultaneously fell on Mu Jiu Chen opposite them, seeing the usually imposing and heroic man now fragile as if he could be crushed with a single touch.
Meng Yuan blinked her reddened eyes and said, "Ninth Master, will our Nuan Nuan be alright?"
She was also very unsure. She had never seen Jiang Nuan like this, as if all signs of life had vanished, unresponsive no matter how she called out to her.
Mu Jiu Chen stared darkly at the ground, as if he hadn't heard Meng Yuan's question.
Yun Xia also hugged her arms and said, "Yuan Yuan, don't worry, Nuan Nuan will be fine. She's so kind, she'll definitely be fine."
Meng Yuan's nose was also red from crying, her tears almost dried up. Jiang Nuan had met her during her most difficult times.
Jiang Nuan was always willing to help others, and her help had been an important turning point in her life. Her computer skills were very good, but after Jiang Nuan's guidance, she became a master hacker.
She was famous abroad, and after returning to China, her business remained good.
Without Jiang Nuan, she wouldn't be where she was today.
"Mm! That big傻子 will be fine." Meng Yuan also prayed in her heart that Jiang Nuan would be alright.
"Wuwuwuwu..." Meng Yuan was still very worried and couldn't help but cry loudly.
When others were injured, Jiang Nuan could pull them back from the brink of death, but if Jiang Nuan was in trouble, others might not have that same ability.
Yun Xia hugged her tightly and comforted Meng Yuan, "Nuan Nuan will be fine, Yuan Yuan, don't cry, if you cry, I'll want to cry too."
Meng Yuan stopped crying, only her shoulders were twitching.
The waiting period was very long. An hour passed, and Jiang Xing Yu also arrived at the hospital. Seeing Meng Yuan's swollen eyes, he was very anxious, "Yuan Yuan, hasn't Nuan Nuan come out yet?"
Meng Yuan shook her head slightly, "No."
Jiang Xing Yu then looked at Mu Jiu Chen, who had been sitting in his seat all along. His expression was dejected, and even as a grown man, he could sense the aura of fear emanating from him.
After Meng Yuan's emotions settled down, she called Jiang Xing Yu, and Jiang Xing Yu also learned about what had happened.
He looked at Mu Jiu Chen with some resentment, but he also knew Jiang Nuan's temperament. If others treated her well with three parts, she would repay them tenfold.
Jiang Xing Yu didn't say anything and waited with them.
Meng Yuan looked at Jiang Xing Yu and asked, "Brother Jiang, did you get the results?" She knew Jiang Xing Yu was going for a paternity test today.
Jiang Xing Yu shook his head slightly, "It will be tomorrow. When you called me, I had just arrived at the doctor's."
Meng Yuan didn't ask any more questions and lowered her eyes to continue waiting.
The atmosphere outside the operating room was somber, and everyone's expression was anxious.
Yun Xia wanted to say something, but felt that nothing was appropriate.
What happened today happened because of her sister.
Li Qing Shuo returned from outside and saw Mu Jiu Chen still sitting in the same posture. He felt a pang of sympathy.
"Xiao Jiu, you've been sitting for a long time, get up first." Li Qing Shuo reached out to help Mu Jiu Chen.
Mu Jiu Chen remained motionless and ignored Li Qing Shuo.
Li Qing Shuo knew Mu Jiu Chen's situation and knew what he was afraid of at this moment.
His mother had also died before his eyes.
"Xiao Jiu."
Li Qing Shuo called out again, but Mu Jiu Chen still didn't react.
Suddenly, the operating room door was pushed open, and Mu Jiu Chen stood up abruptly, looking towards the door.
