Chapter 424 - : Can’t Hold Anymore
Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Can’t Hold Anymore
The cold walls continuously released a chill, penetrating my shirt and causing me to shake uncontrollably.
I never knew that I could be afraid of Ding Yinuo.
Because the darkness in his eyes, like a cheetah in a dark forest, exuded an air of fear.
He cornered me with no way out before he leaned down, reached out, and encircled me within his arms, leaving me with no escape.
“Listen, I don’t want to see this sort of thing a second time.”
His brief words carried a thick warning.
I felt angry just listening, it was obviously Jiang Jiaying who brought disaster upon herself, yet he had the audacity to blame me?
Driven by a rush of anger, I rebuked him on the spot.
“I’ll target her if I want, what can you do to me?”
Ding Yinuo did not get physical with me, but instead leaned in close to my ear and whispered,
“Then be careful about your eyes…”
When I looked into his eyes again, they were filled with a chilly and eerie coldness.
His gaze struck fear into my heart.
Eyes!
What had he done to my eyes?
His words made cold sweat break out on my back.
Watching his figure gradually disappear into the darkness, it took me a long while to come back to my senses.
I took a deep breath and, still feeling somewhat afraid, I made a phone call to Wenya.
Not bothering to wait for the car in the garage anymore, I walked straight out of the garage and into the sunlight outside, immediately feeling much more relaxed.
“What? He cornered you in the garage, are you hurt? Did he lay a hand on you?”
Wenya was far more anxious than I had imagined.
“No, he hasn’t reached that level of losing his composure… But he mentioned my eyes and said if I keep targeting Jiang Jiaying, I should be careful about my eyes.”
Wenya couldn’t contain her anger upon hearing this and cursed out loud.
“So what do you plan to do?”
“I don’t know!”
“Do your eyes hurt?”
“Not at all, they don’t hurt one bit! I just can’t figure out why he would threaten me with this, because there’s currently nothing wrong with my eyes.” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
I closed my eyes and even reached out to touch them, feeling both my left and right eyes, and didn’t detect any abnormalities.
Wenya thought of something,
“Ayun, could he have left a piece of gauze inside your eyeball? I saw a news story about a woman who had a piece of gauze left inside her stomach after giving birth, the mere thought of it is freaking scary! If Ding Yinuo really did something like that, it would be utterly inhumane.”
Her words made me a bit scared.
“Gauze is impossible, my eyes are too small to fit that.”
“Could there be a chance that he did something like deliberately messing up a nerve connection or something… How about this, let me take you to the hospital for a check-up to see what’s going on?”
“Ah, forget it, there’s no need to panic over nothing! Perhaps he was just trying to intimidate me; after all, his reputation as a doctor is at stake here, and the First City Hospital isn’t some small clinic; they wouldn’t allow a doctor to make such a big medical mistake.”
“Alright then!”
Wenya sighed deeply,
“Just take care of yourself, and if you feel uncomfortable, you’d better report it to the police right away! Medical malpractice is a crime, and I refuse to believe the police can’t handle him.”
“Yeah, I got it!”
After speaking with Wenya, I felt a lot better.
I did not go to the hospital for an examination.
However, I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but by the next day, I started to feel a bit of itchiness around my eyes.
When I looked in the mirror, I saw that my eyes were somewhat red and swollen.
I thought it might be because of eating spicy food.
I didn’t pay much attention to it and self-administered some eye drops.
But aside from the redness and swelling, there were no other symptoms…
For the next few days, I kept using the eye drops. Although the condition would alleviate after using the drops, it would recur the next day.
A few days later, when I looked in the mirror again, I found my eyes were full of red bloodshot veins.
Although it looked quite scary, I didn’t feel too uncomfortable.
But if I went out, it would probably frighten anyone who saw me.
So I found a pair of sunglasses to wear.
It just so happened to be the day I had arranged to meet with Lin Nansheng.
Initially, he had planned to come to my place and drive me over, but I thought of that man named Mr. Louis who would be helping at his company.
So I drove myself to his company instead.
Lin Nansheng’s building seemed to have been recently purchased as an investment and, under the sunlight, the entire building shone with a golden brilliance.
It was incredibly luxurious and classy.
As I entered, I happened to see Jiang Jiaying again.
Jiang Jiaying seemed to be carrying some takeout in her hands, lots of large and small bags…
I originally wanted to avoid her, so I deliberately waited for her to get on the elevator and then waited for the next one.
I didn’t expect to run into her again right after getting out of the elevator.
I glanced at her and tried to leave without a fuss, but she called out to me.
“Don’t avoid me! Are you afraid of me or what?”
“Why should I be afraid of you?”
“Look, daddy bought me a new car, the latest sports car model, worth over two million! You’ve never driven such a nice car, have you?”
“Daddy? How ridiculous. Is he really your father?”
Jiang Jiaying seemed a bit guilty and hurriedly walked away with her bags.
A moment later, she entered the CEO’s office and placed all the items on Lin Nansheng’s desk.
“Dad, you said last time that you like fish maw chicken soup, so I especially bought it from Golden Bay for you to try. They say fish maw is excellent for nourishing the body! I also bought you some deep-sea fish oil, all these varieties I got from Japan. Dad, you’re so focused on work, worrying yourself sick, and tired out. You really need to rest well. If you don’t trust others, you can trust me; let me handle some of the company’s business.”
Jiang Jiaying was all smiles, offering bird’s nests and massaging Lin Nansheng’s shoulders.
Lin Nansheng seemed to enjoy her attentive service.
He squinted his eyes, reveling in this rare joy of family.
In fact, Jiang Jiaying’s ambitions were clear to anyone who paid attention.
But Lin Nansheng, having lost his daughter for many years, knew all this yet chose to ignore it. How much did he cherish this daughter he had only just found?
“Jiaying, you’re a doctor, aren’t you? What do you know about running a business? I think that kind of thing is better left to your sister.”
Comparatively, Lin Nansheng trusted me more.
He wanted to teach me the ins and outs of the company’s business personally…
But Jiang Jiaying wouldn’t agree. “Dad, you’re playing favorites, all the way to the Pacific Ocean! Since my sister has an opportunity, can’t I have one too?”
While Jiang Jiaying argued with him, I heard someone outside calling out,
“Mr. Louis, there’re guests in Director Lin’s office, please wait a moment.”
Louis?
Is it the person I was looking for?
I immediately turned my head to look outside.
