Chapter 300: Chapter 190: You Should Have Appeared in Ning Yan’er’s Room

Although Song Qiao felt more uncomfortable sleeping in Lu Jingchen’s arms, she soon got used to the scent of his shower gel, identical to hers, as well as the smell of his shaving cream. Before long, lulled by the steady beat of his heart, the already drowsy Song Qiao fell into a deep sleep.

......

Meanwhile, at the hospital at the same time, Ning Wan woke up in the middle of the night to use the restroom. As soon as she opened her eyes, she sensed that something was off, and she sat up abruptly, scanning the room, only to find that aside from herself, there was no one else around.

She frowned slightly, convincing herself she must have imagined it.

She felt that while she was asleep, someone had been sitting by her, watching her all along, but she was too exhausted to open her eyes to see who it was.

The only thing she was certain of was the gaze that had been fixed on her; it was all too familiar, as if she had been watched like this countless nights before.

Just then, the sound of the hospital room door being unlocked jolted her, her previously relaxed heart tightened, and she fixed her gaze firmly toward the entrance.

The nurse had originally planned to stay and keep her company, but she had declined and sent the nurse home, leaving only herself in the room at this moment.

To be honest, being alone in such a quiet environment was somewhat frightening for her, especially since this was a hospital.

When she was with Song Qiao, they had watched ghost and horror movies that often depicted hauntings in hospitals. Although Ning Wan was not usually timid, she was still a woman, and fear was a natural feeling.

The sound of steady footsteps approached, and soon a man wearing only a white shirt and black trousers, with black leather shoes on his feet, came into Ning Wan’s view. When she recognized the visitor, she was startled and almost instinctively blurted out, "Xi Mohan, what are you doing here?"

Xi Mohan hadn’t expected Ning Wan to be awake and stopped in his tracks. His gaze fell on her slightly pale and gaunt face, and it was evident from her expression that she was angrily questioning his presence.

After a long pause, the man slowly moved, turning on the light switch in the hospital room. Instantly, the room was bathed in brightness, causing Ning Wan to instinctively raise her hand to shield her eyes.

"You’re awake? Are you hungry?" the man asked in a low, steady voice, with no discernible emotion, as if he were merely asking a mundane question.

Once her eyes had adjusted to the light, Ning Wan lowered her hand, her gaze still fixed on the man across from her. Her brows were slightly furrowed, seemingly with a hint of anger, as she maintained her probing tone, "Xi Mohan, what are you doing here?"

Damn it, no wonder she felt like someone had been staring at her as she slept. Seeing the man before her, she was now one hundred percent certain that it was not an illusion; it was him watching her.

Thinking of this, Ning Wan could not help but feel a chill from the soles of her feet, slowly spreading throughout her entire body, making her feel cold all over.

She had said she should never come to the hospital, otherwise this man would surely find her. Indeed, she had been admitted for less than three days, and he had already located her.

What on earth did he want? Could it be that he still refused to let her go?

Ning Wan no longer dared to harbor feelings for Xi Mohan; he was too dangerous. She had been hurt too many times whenever she got close to him.

Xi Mohan seemed unconcerned and stepped forward toward the bed, a chill from the outside world clinging to him, he spoke calmly, "Came to see you. It’s not safe for you to be alone here at night."

She had just had a miscarriage and her body hadn’t fully recovered yet. It would naturally be inconvenient for her to be alone in the hospital.

At first, she had arranged for a nurse, and Lu Jingchen had arranged for one too. He had instructed the nurse he arranged to not come at night, as it was his time, and he didn’t tell the nurse arranged by Lu Jingchen otherwise. It was Ning Wan herself who had personally told her not to come.

Seeing Xi Mohan approaching, Ning Wan couldn’t help wanting to retreat, but she was already at the head of the bed; there was no space to move back, and in this hospital room, she had no way to contend with the man before her, helpless as a fish on the chopping board.
