Chapter 31

The bald guy looked up to the direction of the end of the alley. All he could see was a tall figure walking over, the target was obviously the place they were at. Not only that, it seemed like they came prepared. His instincts told him that something was wrong so he stood up. “Let’s go!”

The group of people quickly escaped to the other end of the alley.

Anhao struggled to sit up but there was no energy left in her.

She did not know what had happened. Suddenly, the figure walked to her side. That person took off their coat and wrapped it around her frail frame that was curled up on the floor due to the cold. After doing so, the person held her by the waist and lifted her up.

Anhao’s gaze was blurry for a moment. She was stunned as she stared at Zuo Hancheng who had appeared within her view so suddenly.

“You… how…” She was slightly shocked.

Zuo Hancheng was calm and collected. He did not say a word as he carried her firmly in his arms, turned around and exited the alley.

Anhao leaned onto his chest absent-mindedly as she did not know what was going on. She suddenly heard sounds of a fight and screams coming from behind at the other end of the alley. The wailing and howls became more and more miserable. She did not know what kind of people Zuo Hancheng had come with, or what method he planned to use against them.

She was in utter confusion, and was even thinking that she might be dreaming.

The clean, masculine scent of this man made her drowsy. She was even feeling calm and composed, like her entire heart was about to drop to the ground.

The girl in his arms was burning up. Both her cheeks were red from her fever. Zuo Hancheng was not bothered with words, all he did was carry her into the car. Mobai, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, saw President Zuo carrying a girl in uniform into the car. He was confused, but he did not dare to ask questions.

Anhao slowly blacked out, but she knew that Zuo Hancheng had carried her into the car. The composed feeling made her drowsy. The first thing she could hear coming from him was his deep and placid voice saying, “Mobai, to the hospital.”

Along the way, all Anhao could feel was the warmth emanating from him as she rested in his arms. Even though she knew that this person was Zuo Hancheng, she was somehow attached to the warmth this man was mysteriously exuding, wrapping her whole.

She did not know how much time went by. After she was carried into the hospital while still confused and dazed, she collapsed into a deep sleep after two continuous days of high fever.

The way Anhao slept when she was ill was truly something.

Zuo Hancheng entered the ward through the door. A nurse was holding an infusion bottle and a needle as she said, “Mr Zuo, the lady you brought in is so difficult to treat. Her fever has been running for days. She should not have any strength at all with that fever of hers, but she is still able to curl up like a ball. I can’t find a way to turn her over. How am I supposed to give her an injection with this sleeping posture of hers…”

The nurse complained about Anhao’s peculiar sleeping posture as she observed Zuo Hancheng’s expression.

Every time she saw this Mr Zuo, she could not help but blush as her heart beat faster. This time, she called him over because she could not give an injection, but truthfully there were selfish motives behind her actions.
