Midnight.
The door of the hospital room quietly opened.
Ran Feng Ge excitedly opened his eyes. Finally! He was about to starve to death!
The visitor did not turn on the lights; instead, he closed the door behind himself. He reached down with his right hand and pulled something out of his pant leg. He then slowly walked to the person lying on the hospital bed.
With the help of the dim glow the various medical equipment emitted, Ran Feng Ge saw that the object flashing coldly in the man’s hand was a dagger!
He had been waiting for Su Yi Mo, but the one who came was a killer!
Ran Feng Ge held his breath and watched with rapt attention. He calmly waited for the man to come closer.
The killer raised his hand and the dagger came falling down. However, contrary to the man’s expectations, he did not feel the thrill of the blade stabbing through flesh and bones. Instead, he was met with a weak and relenting force…
Damn it! The killer realized what had happened and tried to pull the dagger back, but to his surprise, he was already too late. Without warning, Ran Feng Ge lifted his leg and kicked the man in the ribs. Immediately afterwards, he heard the sound of bones breaking and a painful groan.
Like a carp leaping out of water, Ran Feng Ge jumped out of the bed. The various tubes that were attached to his body ripped apart from the force. He tore off his oxygen mask and pulled the dagger out of the pillow, then tossed the pierced pillow aside.
Walking barefoot on the ice-cold ground, Ran Feng Ge stepped gracefully but also menacingly towards the man. “Who sent you here?”
“You’re not Jing Qiu Han.” The killer’s words held a certainty to them. “Where is Jing Qiu Han?”
Ran Feng Ge smiled, making him appear harmless. “I am Jing Qiu Han. It’s just that my injuries are not as severe as you guys may think. I woke up right after getting treatment in Paris, and I only pretended to be unconscious to lure you guys out. You certainly didn’t disappoint me. Now let me ask you, how do you want me to deal with you?”
“Heh, don’t overestimate yourself.” Covering his ribs, the man slowly stood up. “I may have two broken ribs, but you can’t be doing too well yourself, right? Your injuries may have healed somewhat and it seems like you can fight, but you’re not good enough to be my opponent. I couldn’t kill you today, but you can’t kill me either. So why don’t we call it even and pretend I was never here?”
“Hah!” Ran Feng Ge laughed out loud. “That suggestion doesn’t sound too bad.”
The man was delighted and quickly moved to escape out the door.
But, moving like a ghost, Ran Feng Ge blocked his way. “Unfortunately, you picked the wrong guy to make a deal with. If you mess with me, I will not hesitate to kill you. However, I’ll let you go this time if you tell me who you are working for.”
“Dream on!”
“My kick back then didn’t just break two ribs, you know. Right now, isn’t it becoming more and more difficult for you to breathe? If you draw this out any longer, there’s no way your lungs can be saved.” Ran Feng Ge raised his eyebrows. “As for me, I have all the time in the world to accompany you—”
Click— The door suddenly opened, and Ran Feng Ge heard the sound of the light switch being flipped. The entire room was immediately filled with light.
The slim and weak-looking Ran Feng Ge was like a skilled, masked assassin in a confrontation. It was inconceivable how he could suddenly revert to acting haggard and sickly. In short, looking at him from behind made people feel an urge to protect him wholeheartedly.
Understanding the situation inside the room, Su Yi Mo dropped the food container he was holding onto the ground. He loudly exclaimed, “Xiao Han!” He then quickly walked towards Ran Feng Ge and pulled the man into his arms, though the latter was dumbstruck.
Originally, Ran Feng Ge had wanted to flaunt the fact that he had caught a rat. He did not expect to be hugged before he’d even had a chance to open his mouth. The arms holding his
