Yu Yuehan stared at her little face puffing up in anger, and after a few seconds, he seemed to have finally realized something.
He turned to look at the nurse beside him.
The dressing had just been undone when the female nurse raised her head to remind him gently, “It may hurt a little when I put the medication on. I’ll try to do it lightly, but if it really hurts, you can tell me.”
From Nian Xiaomu’s point of view, her gaze was so gentle that water could come out of her eyes anytime.
She was just about to turn to leave when Yu Yuehan stopped her.
“Nian Xiaomu, my hand hurts.”
“…”
She stopped and turned back to look.
The nurse had just dabbed a cotton swab with medication and had not even gotten to apply it on his arm. Why would his hand hurt?
The nurse was obviously taken aback by him.
The reminder she had given him just a while ago was probably just a casual one.
The nurse did not expect a man like Yu Yuehan, who looked as if he might not make a sound if he got slashed a few times with a knife, would actually complain of pain from having his wound dressed.
He still looked as if it was completely right for him to be complaining.
And he displayed a posture as though he was waiting for someone to coax him!
Without waiting for the nurse to come back to her senses, Yu Yuehan muttered lightly, “There’s nothing here for you, you can go out now.”
The nurse replied in a rather stunned manner, “But, your wound…”
The nurse wanted to go on, but seeing how Yu Yuehan was glaring at her, she hurriedly placed the cotton swab down and respectfully left the room.
The only other person left was Nian Xiaomu, who stood about a meter away, in a daze.
“Why are you still standing there? Aren’t you going to change my dressing for me? It hurts so much.” Yu Yuehan raised his arm as he called out to her like a hungry little animal waiting to be fed.
His change from a little puppy to a wolf was completely flawless.
Nian Xiaomu muttered, “Why are you being so fierce? There was a nurse changing your dressing for you, but you were the one who chased her away.”
“Umm, ” Yu Yuehan responded, his thin lips parted slightly.
“Nian Xiaomu, can you smell something sour in the room? I wonder which family overturned their vinegar bottle, the sour scent is so strong.”
“…”
She definitely did not!
Although Nian Xiaomu refused to admit it, seeing how Yu Yuehan had chased the nurse away, she still felt pleasant inside as she changed his dressing for him.
She had just finished changing the dressing when the assistant returned.
The results of the investigation were exactly as Yu Yuehan had guessed.
“From the surface, it appeared that the one who hired the hitmen was Tao Yunyun. But, after further investigation, the one behind it was actually the Mo Family!”
The assistant’s expression looked rather grim.
“Do you know who exactly from the Mo Family it was?” Yu Yuehan probed.
The assistant shook his head. “I couldn’t find out. City N is the Mo Family’s territory, it’s hard to ask around without alerting them. I was worried that if we continued investigating, it would alert the mastermind. So, I came back first.”
The assistant added after some hesitation.
“Each time, the method they used to hire the hitmen was the same. They used the company’s bank account for the collaboration to divert attention away. It’s evident that this person’s status in the Mo Family isn’t low, and it’s quite possible that they are usually involved with the business collaboration projections with both the Zheng and Tao Family!”
“You’re saying… it’s Mo Qian?” Nian Xiaomu asked as she raised her head in astonishment.
The one in charge of the Mo Family at present was Mo Qian.
There was no other person who could have access to these collaboration projects without raising suspicion from others.
But, why did Mo Qian want her dead?
“It’s not just Mo Qian, there’s someone else in the Mo Family who could have easy access to these collaboration projects.” Yu Yuehan muttered lightly.
There was a complex look in his dark eyes.
His eyes shifted to the clothing rack in the ward, where the gown that Nian Xiaomu had worn was hanging.
The scene in the shopping mall that day suddenly flashed in Nian Xiaomu’s head.
The person who had replaced Mo Qian in inspecting the shopping mall…
