Chapter 188

Chapter 188

Ye Anning hid behind the door, her fingers gripping the doorframe tightly, nervously watching Sui Yan who stood near the railing.

She thought Sui Yan had just come to get some fresh air and breathed a faint sigh of relief.

Yet Sui Yan, standing there, seemed to sense something amiss. She leaned on the railing and stood up.

The railing on the rooftop wasn't very high. Feeling a bit weary, Sui Yan simply leaned against it, letting herself sit on the railing.

She lowered her gaze, watching the traffic far below, as if this world had nothing to do with her.

Sui Yan gently swung her legs, leaning her body slightly outward from the railing.

Then, it seemed like a sound came from behind the rooftop door.

Sui Yan glanced coldly in that direction, then slowly slid down from the railing.

The person behind the door didn't show up or leave.

Sui Yan didn't quite understand what Ye Anning was thinking, but she knew Ye Anning probably didn't want her to die.

For Sui Yan, that was enough.

Ye Anning hid nervously behind the door, afraid that going out would further provoke Sui Yan, so she dared not act rashly.

She just sent a message to Sui Jinhong and then waited anxiously for his arrival.

Sui Yan didn't make Ye Anning wait too long. It seemed she had realized something and limped towards the stairs.

Ye Anning finally relaxed, carefully following Sui Yan down the stairs.

When Sui Jinhong rushed over, he bumped right into Ye Anning. Frowning, he grabbed Ye Anning anxiously and asked, "What's wrong with your sister?"

For the first time, Ye Anning didn't resent the term 'sister'. She pulled Sui Jinhong aside, "She'll be down soon, don't let her see me."

Sui Jinhong's brow remained furrowed, "Then I'll wait for her in her ward."

Ye Anning nodded, "I'll go too."

Sui Jinhong had learned about Sui Yan's current situation. While anxiously contacting the best doctors for his daughter, he also began searching for a psychologist to counsel her.

But even after he had contacted everyone, Sui Yan still hadn't shown up in the ward.

Ye Anning grew uneasy again, "Why hasn't she returned yet?"

Sui Jinhong calmed down, "Anning, you go to your mother first. I'll go find Yan."

Ye Anning absentmindedly nodded, but as soon as she left the ward, she headed straight for the security room to check the surveillance footage.

Meanwhile, Sui Yan...

She kept walking out of the hospital, slowly heading in one direction.

Under the cover of night, the bloodstains on her hospital gown didn't seem too obvious.

Sui Yan hadn't walked far when a black car pulled up beside her.

The window rolled down slowly, revealing a stern face, "Kid, what are you doing out here alone? Did you sneak out of the hospital?"

Sui Yan seemed not to hear him, mechanically walking forward.

Bai Heng frowned slightly. He usually didn't like to meddle in others' affairs, but for some reason, he felt sympathy for this young girl.

He opened the car door and got out, "Do you need me to take you back to the hospital?"

Sui Yan finally looked at Bai Heng, but her gaze was so cold and devoid of emotion.

Bai Heng felt a little uneasy. Just as he was about to ask again, he heard the girl mumble something softly.

"...Home..."

If Bai Heng hadn't undergone long military training, he might have missed Sui Yan's words.

His tone softened, "Where's your home? I'll take you there."

Sui Yan pursed her lips, looking ahead with a dazed expression.

After a long while, she said quietly again, "I don't have a home."

Bai Heng felt a pang. He sighed, "How about I take you to my place first?"

Sui Yan obediently followed him into the car. On the way, she kept staring blankly at Bai Heng.

Bai Heng didn't know what to do with her. He took out a small box of chocolates from the car, "Do you want some chocolate? Chocolate is very sweet. If you eat it, the wounds won't hurt anymore. I have medicine at home. I'll have someone bandage your wounds again when we get there, okay?"

Sui Yan didn't reply but took a piece of chocolate and put it in her mouth.

She frowned slightly, barely managing not to spit out the chocolate.

Not sweet at all, bitterly awful.

Bai Heng never ate things like chocolate and didn't realize he had accidentally misled the little girl.

Seeing Sui Yan sitting obediently there, he couldn't help but ask again, "Little one, is there anything else you want?"

This time, Sui Yan answered quite quickly, "Tizi."

Bai Heng relaxed, "You want to eat grapes? Then I'll have someone buy some for you."

Sui Yan shook her head vigorously, "Tizi!"

Bai Heng was puzzled until he heard the girl enunciate forcefully, "Tizi! Xiao Lang!"

Bai Heng understood a little, "You mean Tizi is a little wolf?"

Sui Yan's eyes lit up, looking much better than before, "Xiao Lang!"

Bai Heng was conflicted, "Then should we go to the zoo? Is Tizi there?"

Sui Yan froze for a moment, then grabbed Bai Heng's clothes urgently, "Tizi! At dad's house!"

Bai Heng slowed down, carefully reassuring Sui Yan, "Okay, okay, don't panic. Where is your dad's house? I'll take you to your dad's house."

As he said it, he regretted it. From the girl's appearance, she probably didn't have a good life at her father's house either.

Before Sui Yan could speak, Bai Heng changed his mind, "You should come to my place first. Let's get your wounds treated first, then I'll go see your Tizi, okay?"

Sui Yan didn't seem too willing but nodded slightly.

Bai Heng relaxed and sped up again, driving recklessly to his current temporary residence.

He called his military medic to come and change Sui Yan's bandages, then began searching her background.

Unexpectedly, he found information on her quite easily.

The young girl was named Sui Yan, the daughter of the local tycoon Sui Jinhong and his ex-wife.

Bai Heng frowned slightly. No wonder...

The military medic changed Sui Yan's bandages and gave her some painkillers before coming over, "This little girl is quite tough. She didn't make a sound despite being so badly hurt."

Bai Heng pinched the bridge of his nose, "Are her injuries very severe?"

The military doctor shook his head helplessly: "Not just severe? This injury should have been caused by a car accident, especially the leg injury, which will affect his future life."

Bai Heng gasped in horror, having worked with the military doctor for many years, he naturally understood the meaning of these words.

He let out a long breath: "You stay here and watch over her, don't let anything happen to her. I'll go out for a bit."

The military doctor was a bit puzzled: "Where are you going in the middle of the night?"

Bai Heng left without turning his head: "Don't ask so many questions."
