Chapter 128 : Eat Your Medicine, You Dunce! 9 (1/2)

“Have you all still been unable to get Fu-shao to eat anything yet?” Appearing out of nowhere, the doctor spoke calmly as he ignored the tense atmosphere. “It’s already been three days yet he hasn’t eaten a single thing. If this keeps up, I suggest you start preparing the funeral.”

After saying that, the doctor left without giving anyone enough time to react. If you observed carefully, you would discover that the doctor seemed to be escaping. ‘Being a doctor is difficult too, you know…

I mean, just look at the people who came to visit this patient! They all look like they’re about to go on a killing spree!

…I think I should call security first.’

Uncle Jian and Shi Sheng glared at each other. Something seemed to occur to the bodyguards, and they started attempting to persuade Uncle Jian to let her in. In the end, Uncle Jian reluctantly allowed her to pass. The most important thing right now was to get their Young Master to eat something.

……

The room was a mess. All of the medical equipment had been knocked over, and blankets and pillows were strewn across the floor. It looked like the aftermath of a fight.

A suffocating smell filled the air, making one want to choke.

Reclining against the head of the bed, Fu Qin wore a hospital gown. One of his legs curled up on the bed, a hand resting atop a knee. He held a cigarette between the index and middle fingers of this hand. Smoke wafted off and around him, giving him an ethereal feeling.

The other hand hung off the bedside. Fresh blood trickled down his fingers and dripped onto the floor.

He turned his head, his dead eyes covered by a veil of smoke. It was a despondent and bloody scene.

“Do you want to die, or do you want to die?!” Shi Sheng had already been filled with suppressed rage, so upon catching sight of this she immediately started to berate him. “If you want to die, you can just leap out the window here, you know. Why go through so much trouble?”

After he heard that voice Fu Qin’s neck stiffened, and he turned to look at the young woman standing in front of him. He stared at her for about three seconds before suddenly getting up and walking over to the window on bare feet, managing to climb up it without much difficulty.

“Young Master!” The group of people flooded in from outside. “Don’t be impulsive ah, Young Master…”

“Get out.” Fu Qin’s voice was very light. The wind that blew in from the window broke apart the sound of his words.

“Jump if you have the balls!” Shi Sheng continued to provoke him.

“Miss!” Uncle Jian nearly shouted at her, his eyes filled with rage. He had only allowed her in because he had hoped she would be able to persuade his Young Master. He hadn’t planned for her to instigate his Young Master to commit suicide!

“Young Master!”

Uncle Jian turned to find that Fu Qin’s figure was gone. A few bodyguards crowded the window, staring downwards with horror.

Shi Sheng was a bit stunned. ‘He really jumped…

Son of a bitch! This villain is too easy to kill! I(bbb) can’t handle it!’

“Use consumable ‘Gap In Time’!” Shi Sheng chanted through gritted teeth.

Time suddenly stopped and everyone seemed to freeze into place. The world turned quiet.

Shi Sheng stalked toward the window, walking over the debris cluttering the floor. She opened it up and looked down to see Fu Qin frozen in the position he had been falling in. He was around ten or so metres away from the ground.

Shi Sheng leapt down from the windowsill and soon reached Fu Qin’s side. She came to a stable stop next to him, her sword beneath her feet.

She took Fu Qin to descend a bit more until the two of them were only a metre off the ground, after which she waited for the consumable to run out of time.

All of a sudden, the frozen city came back to life and sound filled the silent world once again.

The impact came quickly. Shi Sheng had been clutching Fu Qin when they landed. Even though she had minimized the impact, she still heard a cracking sound from her back.

‘Fuck! Look what I’ve gotten myself into now!

Who knew this idiot would really jump?!

…Luckily there aren’t many people in this in-patient area. I don’t even want to think about how other people would react to this.’
