Lin Xuan's voice was calm and steady.
He gently recounted everything that had happened that afternoon to the girl lying on the hospital bed.
At first, Su Qingge listened with great interest.
But when she heard that Lin Xuan and the others had clashed with Zhao Hu and his son...
Her entire heart tensed up instantly.
Zhao Hu? I know him. He has gained considerable influence in the past few years in Modu.
His biggest backer, if I remember correctly... is the Han family.
Ke Xin and the others actually provoked him this time?
And they even beat up Zhao Lei. Zhao Hu definitely won't let this go easily.
Could it be that Lin Xuan is injured right now...
Based on the rumors she had heard, Zhao Hu seemed to prefer solving problems with violence.
Now that Lin Xuan and the others had provoked him, it was unlikely they'd get away unscathed—at the very least, a beating was inevitable.
Thinking of this, Su Qingge became extremely worried.
She desperately tried to feel her body, struggling to open her eyes, wanting to check if Lin Xuan was injured.
But in the end...
She remained motionless, like a living corpse.
I can't even take a single look at Lin Xuan to see if he's hurt.
I really am useless…
Su Qingge felt dejected.
She hated her own helplessness—she couldn't even accomplish the most basic action of opening her eyes like a normal person.
She hated her own weakness even more. If she were stronger, Lin Xuan could simply reveal that he was the Su family's son-in-law—Zhao Hu wouldn't dare lay a hand on him!
"Qingge, are you worried about us?"
"Don't worry, Ke Xin and I are fine. We owe it all to Brother Su Fan!"
Lin Xuan noticed the slight tremor in Su Qingge's fingers and smiled, comforting her.
Then he explained Chen Kexin's impersonation plan…
Hearing that Lin Xuan and the others had tricked their way out of Zhao Hu's grasp, Su Qingge let out a breath of relief but also felt a lingering fear.
You guys are way too bold!
You even dared to impersonate a martial arts grandmaster? And you actually managed to pull it off?!
Zhao Hu isn't an idiot. For him to be fooled, that Su Fan guy must have excellent acting skills.
That's the only way they could have made the deception seem real.
But even with great acting, it's still unbelievable that they actually pulled it off.
A person like Zhao Hu…
Would he really be scared so easily by such a crude trick?
That shouldn't be possible… Could Su Fan really be a martial arts grandmaster?!
But that's impossible! According to Lin Xuan, Su Fan is Ke Xin's fiancé—just a young guy.
At his age, no matter how gifted he is, he couldn't possibly have reached the pinnacle of martial arts!
…..
For the sake of her revenge plan.
Su Qingge had deeply studied the martial arts world and was well-versed in the cultivation levels of martial artists.
Even before she fell into a coma, she had barely reached the early stage of inner strength cultivation after five years of relentless training.
She had a profound understanding of how difficult martial arts cultivation was.
She absolutely did not believe that this man named Su Fan had the ability to reach the peak of martial arts at such a young age.
Unless he was born as the chosen one of the world, a martial arts prodigy…
At this moment.
Lin Xuan mentioned Lin Hao and his father, suddenly revealing a mischievous grin.
"Qingge, if my calculations are correct…"
"At the latest, by tomorrow or the day after, the side effects of the Lin family's Beauty Ointment will start exploding one by one."
"I'm really curious to see what expressions Lin Jianjun and his son will have then. Heh heh heh…"
At first, hearing Lin Xuan's strange laughter.
Su Qingge couldn't help but be amused.
But in the next second, remembering certain things, she instinctively felt a pang of heartache for Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan may be laughing on the outside, but deep down, he must be suffering the most.
After all, turning against his own family and even destroying his own family business…
How cruel must that be!
In the dark prison of her consciousness.
Waves of indescribable sorrow and bitterness surged through Su Qingge's heart.
Putting herself in his shoes.
If she had to completely sever ties with her own parents like this.
Su Qingge couldn't imagine how much pain she would be in!
Lin Xuan must be feeling the same way as her.
He was just forcing himself to act strong so he wouldn't show weakness in front of her.
That's why he was putting on a forced smile and speaking in a relaxed tone.
Thinking this way.
Su Qingge felt even more sorrowful.
She suddenly wanted to do something for this man, even if it was just to comfort him with a few words.
But her emotions quickly sank again.
She was nothing but a cripple now. Other than being able to move a few fingers and toes, she could do nothing at all…
Wait!
I think…
I can still do something for him?!
Su Qingge's heart lit up with joy.
She suddenly had an idea and started focusing on moving her fingers…
…..
In the outside world.
Lin Xuan, full of interest, was talking about how the Lin family would completely collapse…
He was explaining how he would launch his own [Beauty Pill] and take advantage of the situation to capture the market and reclaim the Lin family's shares.
Just as he was getting excited—
A tickling sensation in his palm made him pause, slightly puzzled.
"Qingge, what's wrong?"
Under Lin Xuan's astonished gaze.
Su Qingge's fair, delicate index finger was struggling to trace something in his palm.
Perhaps because she hadn't fully recovered.
Her finger moved stiffly, tracing at an incredibly slow pace.
But she persisted, repeating the motion over and over again.
Finally, Lin Xuan understood what the girl was trying to convey...
I am here.
I'm with you.
Don't be sad.
Stay strong.
Just these few short words made Lin Xuan's heart tighten sharply.
A certain indescribable emotion surged in his heart.
Lin Xuan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the sour feeling rising in his nose, and gently pinched the girl's soft cheeks.
"Fool."
At this moment.
Lin Xuan had also realized something.
Su Qingge must have thought that he was pretending to be strong after falling out with Lin Jianjun…
The girl who couldn't speak to comfort him.
Could only use this clumsy and primitive method to accompany Lin Xuan.
But she was the one who was actually a vegetative patient, the one who was truly the most pitiful…
Trapped in a body that couldn't move, she should be the one feeling the most helpless.
In this situation.
Can't you be a little selfish and worry about yourself for once?!!
"You fool."
In the dark prison of her consciousness.
Hearing Lin Xuan call her "fool" twice.
Su Qingge was left in confusion.
What's going on?
Did I trace the words wrong? Did Lin Xuan misunderstand me???
Why is he calling me a fool?!
(〃＞皿＜)
Damn it, I worried about you for nothing.
I'm not a fool at all!!!
