Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Are We Being Watched?

"Girl, Dad always feels that something is not quite right. Are we being watched?"

Shen Zhong has been restless for the entire afternoon, staying inside the intensive care unit without leaving.

Shen Cheng leaned against the wall, silent. Her slender fingers moved back and forth on her smooth chin, as if contemplating something.

She narrowed her eyes, gazing at the position of the window next to the door.

The curtains were tightly closed, not letting in a single ray of light, but they couldn’t hide the fleeting shadows from outside.

Ordinarily, very few people walk around on this floor of the intensive care unit, but today has been unusually busy; in just a few hours, at least twenty or thirty people have passed by outside.

Moreover, each time those people passed by outside the ward, they would intentionally or unintentionally pause.

Without guessing, it was clear that this ward was under surveillance.

Seeing her serious expression and her silence, Shen Zhongming realized something, "Girl, your dad didn’t guess correctly, did he?"

"Mhm."

Her voice was faint, betraying no sense of whether her mood was good or bad.

"What should we do then? Girl, if those people really come knocking, it’s going to be troublesome."

"We’ll do what we need to do."

As Shen Cheng spoke, she walked straight to the bedside and reached into a drawer to pull out a dagger.

Seeing her take the knife, Shen Zhongming was at first stunned, then he hurriedly went forward to ask, "Girl, what are you going to do with that thing?"

Shen Cheng did not answer but simply handed the dagger to him.

Shen Zhongming did not take it and asked with a frown, "Why are you giving this thing to me?"

"For self-defense."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhongming quickly pushed her hand back, "What can’t I use for self-defense? You keep the knife, I don’t want it."

"Just take it if I tell you to, stop the nonsense."

In front of Shen Zhongming, Shen Cheng was always domineering, not even giving him a chance to refuse.

"I’ll go out and check in a moment; you lock the doors and windows well. If there’s any noise, call the police." She said this and turned her gaze to the bed, frowning slightly, "Watch your son."

"No, girl, you cannot go out." Shen Zhongming stepped in front of her, "You stay here, let dad go take a look."

"You’d be shot dead with one bullet if you went out." Her voice was cold, devoid of any warmth.

"Even if I got shot, I can’t let you go out. You’re a delicate girl; if you run into any trouble, how will you manage?"

"And you can manage?"

"If I can’t, can’t I still run?"

"Get lost! You think you can run and I can’t?"

"But you can’t run faster than Dad..."

"..."

"Girl, listen to Dad just this once..."

"I won’t, move aside."

"I won’t."

"Shen Zhongming, have you still not had enough? Move, or take the consequences."

"Ah! Look, there’s that temper flaring up again, ..."

"Stop dawdling, get out of the way."

"Alright... just be careful, girl. If you run into those people, don’t try to fight them head-on; find somewhere to hide, or like you said, you can always call the police..."

"Bang—"

The response he got was the sound of the door slamming shut forcefully.

As soon as Shen Cheng left the ward, Shen Zhongming’s heart hung in suspense.

He hurriedly went forward to lock the door from the inside and went to check the windows to make sure they were locked properly. After confirming everything was secured, he returned to sit by the bedside.

But he stood up again after less than ten seconds.

His hands clasped together, he paced back and forth inside the ward, growing even more unsettled.
