Chapter 393: Chapter 393: Destined Sleepless Night
He ordered someone to fetch a new coat for him to wear, but the doctor intervened:
"Young master, the effects of the anesthesia on your hand have not completely worn off..."
Shi Yu paid no attention to his injury, and while putting on the coat, he instructed, "Do not tell the Young Madam about my injury."
The servants, who were just terrified by Shi Yu’s injury, suddenly fell into a new round of panic: "Yo-young master... Madam was, was kidnapped this morning..."
Shi Yu thought he had heard wrong, and asked coldly again, "What?"
The servant was trembling as he recounted the whole incident.
Just when everyone thought Shi Yu would erupt in rage, they heard him say coldly instead, "If she can be brought back unharmed, all of you can still live in peace."
His calmness seemed somewhat illogical.
But everyone knew the weight behind the words Shi Yu had said.
If anything were to happen to the Young Madam this time, the consequences waiting for them would be unimaginable...
Shi Yu quickly gathered everyone, searching for Shen Cheng throughout the night.
The private doctor tried several times to advise him to rest properly, and let the subordinates search, but was deterred by his stern gaze each time.
Tonight, for Shi Yu, for Shen Cheng, and for everyone else, it was a sleepless night...
Qin Mansion.
Qin Jin’s wound had been treated, and he was deeply asleep.
The doctor said his injuries were not fatal, but due to excessive blood loss, he needed to rest properly.
Ye Zi sat by the bed, staring intently at the unconscious man, almost bursting into tears from anxiety.
Although she knew his life wasn’t in danger, the sight of him lying motionless on the bed, not smiling or speaking, always made her feel anxious.
He had been asleep for a long time since they returned...
Ye Zi stayed up until the latter part of the night, wiping his body throughout, becoming extremely sleepy herself, but Qin Jin showed no signs of waking up.
She reached out and tugged at the corner of Qin Jin’s clothes, "Don’t die..."
The person in bed still didn’t move.
Ye Zi pouted, feeling wronged, "You’ve been asleep for so long..."
No response.
Tears were already welling up in Ye Zi’s eyes, about to fall.
"At worst, I promise, I’ll sleep with you in three months..." As soon as she finished speaking, the man in the bed stretched out a long arm, pulling her down next to him. Imprisoning her, he didn’t even open his eyes, "A promise is a promise."
Ye Zi was both anxious and angry, but also happy that he woke up. Unsure of what expression to don, she gently punched him, "You tricked me!"
Unexpectedly, Qin Jin groaned slightly, as if his wound had been aggravated, which scared Ye Zi from moving rashly again, obediently lying in his embrace.
Qin Jin opened his eyes, looked at the slightly flushed face in his arms, and felt a surge of affection.
He was a normal man, even with injuries, the presence of a beauty in his arms still disrupted his mind.
"Just woke up, and I heard you say that..." Qin Jin paused intentionally, saw Ye Zi’s face grow redder, then feigned anger, "Were you consoling me because you thought I was dying?"
Ye Zi quickly denied it, "Not at all!"
Looking up to see Qin Jin grinning, she realized she had been played, her face blushing as she buried her head in his embrace.
After a while, she murmured softly in annoyance, "You’re mean!"
Qin Jin hugged the person in his arms tightly with pleasure.
However, since he had just been injured, he couldn’t move much, so he contented himself with kissing Ye Zi’s lips for a while to quench his craving.
Holding a bundle of tenderness, Qin Jin finally felt a bit tired, touched Ye Zi’s hair, and whispered softly, "Let’s sleep."
