Chapter 546 She Is My Sister
Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 546
Shen Qianan had gone missing. On the second day of her disappearance, Yu cried his eyes out because Shen Qianan was nowhere in sight. Even Pei Huan and Ning Xin had no luck comforting the distressed child at home. Left without a choice, they disclosed this issue to Fu Chengyan.
It was initially a good idea for Yu to meet Shi Nuan since she resembled strikingly to Shen Qianan. However, Fu Chengyan refused to allow the two to meet up. They had never seen Fu Chengyan with such a hardened resolve before.
Ning Xin and Song Zhenyan did not know the hidden reason behind this, but Pei Huan knew about it. There had been no news from Li Heng as of recent, and Pei Huan could not help but feel worried. She feared the worst had already happened to Li Heng.
That day, Pei Huan had taken He Yun to the hospital. Fu Chengyan's recent work was also basically moved to that hospital for future developments. Regardless of the nature of their work, Zhou Zheng was assigned to handle them.
Naturally, Fu Chengyan did not tell Shi Nuan about these things. Shi Nuan merely assumed her condition had not been under control. She was also aware of her infection by the virus, hence her cooperation fo the past few days.
Shi Nuan did not know that Fu Chengyan was in the ward next to her. She, however, felt things were amiss each time she cooperated for her health examination. It was not until that day when Shi Nuan hardly saw any people in the corridors of such a big hospital. Only then did she realize that things were not as simple as she thought.
She did indeed see Pei Huan bringing Bao and Yu together to the hospital. That alone was enough to make Shi Nuan notice that some things were not as they seemed.
Only after asking did Shi Nuan realize that Yu had not seen Shen Qianan for days. For the past few days, Yu had stayed at the Fu residence. Ever since Shen Qianan left the hospital on that particular day, she never came back.
Initially, Fu Chengyan had told everyone to keep this a secret from Shi Nuan, but now she had already found out.
Shi Nuan kept requesting to look for Shen Qianan. Fu Chengyan had no choice but to ask someone to bring the children away. In the end, he took a glance at Pei Huan, his eyes filled with an unfamiliar emotion.
Pei Huan also knew that Fu Chengyan might be troubled with self-blame. Despite that, she was a mother herself and had similar experiences, so she empathized with how difficult it was for the children not to get to see their mother.
Fu Chengyan then asked Pei Huan to bring Bao and Yu out to play. Only Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan were left in the spacious hospital ward.
Shi Nuan frowned, looking at Fu Chengyan with rage-filled eyes. "Where has my sister gone to?" In fact, she was not questioning him even though she was staring at Fu Chengyan with a serious look in her gaze. "Fu Chengyan!" That was the first time Shi Nuan called him by his full name.
Fu Chengyan frowned in response. As he was about to speak, Shi Nuan continued, "You must know where my sister has gone, right? Fu Chengyan, this is my sister we're talking about."
"May!" Fu Chengyan cried out as he walked over to Shi Nuan. As he reached out to hold her hand, Shi Nuan rejected his advances. "What have you been working on recently? Is there perhaps something wrong with my body? Fu Chengyan, I have the right to know these things! Also, where did my sister go? What did Su Shaoqing inject my sister with that day?"
Shi Nuan was not a fool. Judging by Pei Huan's appearance that day and Fu Chengyan's current actions, Shi Nuan more or less knew what was going on.
"Yu's biological father was the person who kidnapped me that day, am I right?" Shi Nuan stared intently at Fu Chengyan before continuing, "My sister was kidnapped by them before, and yet, you have the audacity to let her be the bait?"
Shi Nuan stared straight at Fu Chengyan intensely as she spoke. The unfamiliar look in her eyes made Fu Chengyan feel uneasy and suffocated. "Fu Chengyan, she is my
sister!" "I know this. May, I had no other choice but to do this. He injected a virus into you. Do you know what that means?" Fu Chengyan's icy stare expressed a hint of tenderness as he spoke. "You know I can't just sit by idly and do nothing. I can't bear to see you suffer!"
"My sister was innocent!" Shi Nuan protested, taking a deep breath. "I'm saying what if that man has no interest in my sister? Then you'll just be sending her into a death trap." Shi Nuan dreaded thinking about Shen Qianan's well-being in her current state.
After all, the man she had a prior encounter with had been a cold and ruthless person. After exchanging words briefly, she did not get the chance to know him better. However, she could tell that that man was indeed a cruel person.
To think that he could even inject the virus into a woman and a child like Pei Huan and Bao, Shi Nuan dared not imagine what he would do to Shen Qianan. "May, please believe me!"
Shi Nuan shook her head. "It's not that I don't believe you. You can't reassure me that he's not going to harm my sister. Isn't it?"
A wave of exhaustion suddenly came over Shi Nuan as she said, "Yan, I know someone injected the virus into me. You're worried, but so am I. But you can't just put my sister at risk because of me. Have you ever thought about what's going to happen to Yu?" Fu Chengyan rubbed his temple. "All right, May. Give me some time. I'll see what I can do to resolve this. Okay?" Holding Shi Nuan's hand, he assured, "I've already made the necessary arrangements. I assure you, Shen Qianan will be fine!"
Shi Nuan wanted to say something, but Fu Chengyan never gave her another chance to speak. "Li Heng has gone to Frosa. He went to look for the whereabouts of a Ghost Doctor in Willowbank. May, all you need to do is wait patiently. Li Heng will be back before you know it!"
Meanwhile, Li Heng drove to Willowbank in Frosa on his own. The fires of war had clearly ravaged the place as corpses lay scattered everywhere. It was hard to imagine he and Pei Huan had spent time here together three months ago. At that time, Pei Huan had suggested staying for a longer period of time. In fact, the two even made plans to ditch Bao just so they could make a trip here again without the latter. Li Heng got out of his car and scanned the surroundings. As he looked around, Li Heng spotted many volunteers nearby but did not see any signs of the rumored Ghost Doctor.
Not far away, a child crawled out from a pile of corpses. It was unclear what that child was searching for by venturing into the corpse piles. After rummaging for a long time, Li Heng looked up and saw no fear in the child's face, as if accustomed to seeing such grisly scenes.
Scarred by the war in a ruined environment, this place had lost the vibrancy it once had three months ago. A child no older than ten years old picked up a syringe and extracted some substance from the corpses with a cold expression before putting it calmly inside their bag. The child crossed over corpses and seemed to be hiding from someone before disappearing in front of Li Heng.
Li Heng narrowed his eyes. Throughout his years of doing business, Li Heng interacted with people from all walks of life. In addition, he often saw such scenes when he spent time abroad. Scenes of someone licking blood from the edge of a knife were nothing new to Li Heng. That child from before caused Li Heng to experience a heightened sense of intuition.
Li Heng pursed his lips, focusing his line of sight on that spot where the child was earlier.
He walked over and saw the corpses that the child had previously crawled on. At first glance, these corpses were ordinary, just like the others. However, upon closer inspection, these corpses were not casualties of war. A possibility still stood that they could have died from being shot at by bullets or bombed by artillery. Some corpses, however, had spots on their bodies and discolored lips, proving their deaths were different compared to those who died from the war.
Li Heng took out his handkerchief and covered his mouth. Crouching down, Li Cheng took his army knife habitually before inspecting the corpse. He then saw several markings on the corpse, possibly a type of identification.
Narrowing his eyes, Li Heng checked the other corpses and found similar markings on their bodies.
There was a cold look in his eyes as he spotted the markings. Li Heng soon stood up to clean his army knife before getting into his car right after. He then drove toward the direction where the child had left. Corpses scattered everywhere, with the occasional survivors wandering around. The rest were people who had been left in a state of shock, followed by volunteers.
With eyes as keen as a hawk, Li Heng saw a group of people and spotted the child immediately. He had a lingering feeling that there was something strange about this child. Li Heng then quickly got out of his car and followed the child.
This child was clearly not an ordinary person. After walking for a few hundred meters, he instinctively knew someone was following them. In response, the child began shuttling between the small corpse-filled town.
Seeing this, the corners of Li Heng's mouth widened as he grew increasingly curious about the prey he was chasing.
After running around for a while, the child thought he had escaped from Li Heng's pursuit. The child turned around, only to replace Li Heng standing right in front of him.
Startled, the child took a few steps back. As he tried to run, Li Heng successfully blocked his path.
"Who are you?" The child asked in Granatanolan despite not being fluent in the language. He looked at Li Heng with wariness in his eyes.
With raised eyebrows, Li Heng maintained his smile and replied to the child in fluent
Granatanolan. The child, of course, could not understand a word spoken by Li Heng. Li Heng then took two steps forward, but the child took several steps back with his hands reaching into the bag. In an instant, he attacked the moment Li Heng stepped forward.
The smile on Li Heng's face became more prominent as he disarmed the child with ease, causing him to fall to the ground. Angered, the child cursed at Li Heng in fluent Sylvonish.
Li Heng was a little surprised as he exclaimed, "What an interesting child you are!" There was a smile on Li Heng's face, though it was an intimidating one when facing his prey.
The child looked at Li Heng with a horrified expression. He never expected Li Heng to understand his words.
"Who the hell are you? Why are you following me?" The child soon stood up, holding a scalpel in his hand. As he readied to stab Li Heng, the child found he could not even get closer to the latter. Instinctively, he knew Li Heng was a formidable person.
Li Heng arched an brow and said, "Take me to him."
"I don't know what you're talking about!" the child calmly replied. At a glance, one could tell the child had also undergone a strict training regimen.
The child had no time to react as Li Heng moved up to him in an extremely swift manner. Unbeknownst to him, the scalpel he held earlier had ended up in Li Heng's hands.
Li Heng looked down, the gaze of his keen eyes soon focused on the fine-looking scalpel. The scalpel also had an engraving on the handle with the word "Huo" on it. This is the unique symbol of the Huo family, which precisely belongs to Huo Shenxing.
"Take me to him," Li Heng replied clearly in fluent Sylvonish this time.
