Chapter 1397: Companionship

The moment Qiao Yanze closed the door, a sweet smell came out of his throat.

He took out his handkerchief and quickly put it to his lips.

After the bottle of red potion was injected into his body, it turned out that he no longer had the energy to even touch a woman.

Mr. Li must have planned it long ago!

He could only look at Cen Xi, but couldn't touch her.

Qiao Yanze leaned against the wall, closed his eyes slightly, and his tight jawline became extremely tense for a moment.

After nearly a minute, Qiao Yanze straightened up.

He glanced at the closed door, tightened his hands hanging by his side, stopped staying too much, and strode away.

…

Cen Xi stood up from the ground and sat on the sofa.

Where he had been sitting before.

His breath and warmth seemed to still linger on it.

She couldn't understand why he had such a distant attitude after returning to the capital.

He even said what he said so far tonight!

Cen Xi leaned her head on the back of the sofa, her long hair brushing her cheeks, blocking the expression on her little face.

I can't think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the more heart-wrenching it becomes.

…

Qiao Yanze drove back to Qiao's house in person.

He checked with Bai Ye about his physical condition.

Bai Ye said that he was really unlucky for eight lifetimes. When he met Mr. Li, all he used were his special skills. That kind of potion was specially made by the criminal group. Except for Mr. Li and the people inside the group, even a miracle doctor could not cure it. An antidote was developed.

He is about to die soon, why should he delay this good girl any longer?

There was a faint blush in Qiao Yanze's eyes. He stepped on the accelerator and accelerated the car.

Driving to a traffic light intersection, the speed was too fast and he failed to stop in time. A slender woman was passing by on the road, and the car almost hit her.

Apparently, the woman was also taken aback. His knees weakened and he fell to the ground.

Qiao Yanze held the steering wheel with both hands and let his head go blank for a few seconds. After reacting, he opened the door and hurriedly got out of the car.

The woman who was hit had very black and straight long hair. At first glance, she looked a bit like Cen Xi. Her hair covered her face, so Qiao Yanze couldn't see her clearly.

She was wearing a knee-length skirt and fell to the ground. Her white knees were torn and bleeding.

Judging from his clothing, he is a simple person.

"I'm sorry, are you okay?" Before Qiao Yanze could finish his words, the woman suddenly raised her head. When she saw the face that came into view, Qiao Yanze was stunned for a few seconds.

The woman had a cool face, delicate and beautiful facial features, a face with beautiful lines, and her eyes were slightly raised, with a natural charm.

Qiao Yanze and the woman looked at each other.

Neither of them spoke, they just stared at each other for a long time.

"Qingyan?"

"Brother Yanze?"

"Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?"

The two said in unison.

Qiao Yanze stroked his forehead, "Are you okay?"

The woman's face was a little pale, and she shook her head, "I'm fine. What a coincidence, I met you so late."

Qiao Yanze helped the woman stand up from the ground. After all, she fell to her knees. When she stood up suddenly, she still gasped in pain.

"I'll take you to the hospital."

"Brother Yanze, it's okay, just a little injury."

Qiao Yanze frowned when he heard Qing Yan's words.

The Qing family used to be family friends with the Qiao family, and he had an engagement with Qing Yan. Qing Yan was the apple of the Qing family's eye, and any bump would cause pain to the two elders of the Qing family for a long time.

Later, the Qing family immigrated abroad, and they had no contact with her over the years. When he and Xiaoying were together, his mother often compared Qingyan and Xiaoying.

Although Qing Yan is a lady, she is knowledgeable, courteous, humble, neither arrogant nor impetuous, and is much more mature than girls of the same age.

At that time, she fell in love with a man who was ten years older than her. The Qing family did not agree, so she became a non-marriage person.

Qing Yan insisted not to go to the hospital, and Qiao Yanze couldn't force it, so he took a taxi for her. He didn't get in the car until she left.

…

Cen Xi woke up to the sound of the alarm.

I couldn't sleep for a long time last night.

Opening her eyes and looking at the ceiling above her head, she was in a daze for a while.

She got up, washed, packed her luggage, and took a car to the airport.

Flying to Switzerland again, she felt mixed emotions.

After a long flight, Cen Xi arrived at her destination.

After arriving at the airport, Cen Xi went to the hotel first and then to the bank the next day.

I found the manager Zhang my sister mentioned. After confirming his identity, Manager Zhang handed her a passbook and the key to the safe.

Cen Xi took a look at the safe. The gold and silver jewelry inside almost blinded her.

The figures in the passbook are already astonishing enough. Add in the gold and silver jewelry, and my sister can be considered a wealthy woman.

This money was earned by my sister risking her life. She doesn't mess with it.

Cen Xi didn't touch the contents of the safe and only took the bankbook.

She went to the hospital and did a series of tests. The doctor said that if her left ear is operated on, she is expected to recover.

But any surgery has risks.

If the operation fails, she will become deaf forever.

Cen Xi was only in her twenties, so she was not afraid.

She nodded to the doctor, "Confirm the operation."

The doctor asked her to sign the operation sheet and she could have the operation tomorrow.

Walking out of the doctor's office, Cen Xi looked at the hospital where people were coming and going. Almost all the sick people were accompanied by their closest relatives. She was the only one, alone. When she walked out of the hospital, her shadow in the sunshine looked extremely lonely and lonely.

When people need support most, they always want a shoulder to lean on.

…

In a black car, a well-dressed man sat in the back seat.

The man's eyes were always staring at the woman coming out of the hospital.

The vulnerability and loneliness in her eyes fell into his eyes.

"Master, since you are worried about Miss Cen's surgery, why don't you accompany her?" Dazuo, who was driving in front, asked in confusion.

Qiao Yanze tapped his knees with his long and thin fingers, and said with unclear emotions from his thin lips, "For her own good, we can no longer give her hope."

Da Zuo became more and more confused.

For her own good, shouldn't we keep her by our side and take good care of her?

…

The next afternoon.

The time of Cen Xi’s surgery.

She followed the nurse into the operating room.

Almost as soon as she entered, a tall and tall figure appeared.

He stood at the door of the operation, like a sculpture, staying there motionless.

In the operating room, Cen Xi listened to the nurse's instructions and lay down on the operating table.

Two small white hands were clasped in front of him uneasily.

She opened her eyes and looked at the operating light that had not yet been turned on. She pursed her lips so nervously that their blood had faded.

The attending doctor came over, glanced at Cen Xi, and said in a gentle tone, "Don't be afraid, close your eyes, the anesthetic is about to be administered."

Cen Xi slowly closed his eyes.

As long as Cen Xi was in the operating room, Qiao Yanze stood outside.

He didn't leave until the door of the operating room was opened.

Cen Xi's operation was successful and she has woken up.
