The Investors

Chapter 30

"Sir, it's good that you're awake. You lie down again, let us check" said one of the nurses, propping up a stethoscope to confirm the young man's heart rate.

But Cia Yonggan did not criticize him, instead asking. "Suster, where am I?"

He circled his gaze around and realized he was in a spacious room and had luxurious and well-organized furniture. Cia Yonggan's entire life had never before entered a room as luxurious as this.

"You're at Miss Xiao's residence, sir. Let us check your heart rate and pulse first," said the other nurse while holding the medical equipment pulse check.

"Miss Xiao? Who's Miss Xiao?" Cia Yonggan again asked regardless of the two nurses.

The two nurses were actually a little irritated at being ignored by people, but for the sake of seeing this handsome patient and the payment provided by Xiao Meilin they still tried to persuade Cia Yonggan subtly.

"Sir, Miss Xiao is Miss Xiao, she will not be changed into someone else. Hihihihi," the first nurse giggled amusedly with Cia Yonggan's question.

"Chihui.. Yeah, there's no way she's gonna turn into a man" the second nurse chimed in with a joke.

Facing two carefree young nurses like this, inevitably Cia Yonggan smiled slightly. He followed the instructions of the two nurses.

But when he was about to break down, then he realized that his entire body was in pain, especially on his left rib. He recalled that night he had gotten a hard blow from Mo Kat on his left rib, it was likely that some of his ribs were broken which caused him to be unable to breathe normally. In addition, he also felt pain in the part of his head that was bumped due to the blunt force of his braking object and both hands were in pain and left bruises from the braking.

As the two nurses examined Cia Yonggan's pulse and heart rate, his memory returned to the dream moment of meeting his parents. The dream felt surreal imprinted in his memory, as if it was an event he had experienced in real life. Both her parents told her to go home soon, controlling something she herself did not know. And it seems so urgent, it can no longer be delayed.

Yeah, back home, he should be home soon. In the house he left Gao Mei Gui alone without food, without a vehicle. Thinking of this, he became agitated. He didn't know how long he had been lying here, was Gao Mei Gui still there and waiting for his return?

In his heart, he wished that the girl would not wait for him and return to her residence in Nanping. He could not imagine the person he loved suffering from waiting too long for him in the corner.

"Mei Gui, I hope you're okay, forgive me," he said inwardly.

"Your pulse and heart are running normally, sir. But so you should not move too much first, fear that the cast that covers your chest will shift and loose so that the recovery runs slowly," one of the nurses said so after the examination that disperse the daydream of Cia Yonggan.

"Good, sister. Thank you," said Cia Yonggan.

On the surface he looked calm, but in his heart was turbulent, how he broke away from here and immediately went home to see the whereabouts of the girl he loved as well as find out what was meant by his parents.

Miss Xiao who was mentioned by the two nurses was certainly the one who had saved her from the evil deeds of Wei Chung who was conspiring with Mo Kat, the executioner. How can this story of Miss Xiao release her from Wei Chung's death threat? Who exactly is he?

There were many questions about the lady he had assumed to be his savior. If he insists on getting out of here without meeting the savior, he will be a selfless man.

"Suster, may I be reunited with Miss Xiao? I want to thank him" said Cia Yonggan, reaching out to one of the nurses.

Just as the nurse was about to answer, suddenly the door of the room opened followed by a slim figure entering the room. The woman looks very charming in a blazer and knee-length skirt that indicates she just got home from work. The round face of the egg he has looks commensurate with his small and pointed nose. This woman has a charisma that is not owned by many other women. Anyone who just met her would feel a little nervous.

Even for Cia Yonggan, when he looked at the girl who had just entered, he was only able to gawk at her. Only at a glance did he already know that the girl's age was above her by at least three or four years.

"Finally you wake up, great," Xiao Meilin said curiously as she saw the young man gawking at her.

In Xiao Meilin's mind, all men were the same, the eyes of the basket that when looking at women his eyes became bulging like the current Cia Yonggan.

As soon as he got to the side of the bed, he furiously said while glaring at the young man. "Have you never seen a woman?"

Of course Cia Yonggan became confused. This girl in front of him must have been prejudiced by him.

"Miss.. Tweet.. I'm sorry.." said Cia Yonggan stammered.

"Cici Cici! Do I look like your brother?" Xiao Meilin became angry.

Seeing the bad gait, one of the nurses cut in a smooth tone. "Miss Xiao, this Master is normal, although he can't move too much and has to rest a lot."

Xiao Meilin momentarily looked at the nurse and gave a gesture to leave this room that the two nurses could capture. They left the room leaving the two men.

"Who's your name?" Xiao Meilin asked, this time looking serious.

Cia Yonggan had previously been made to feel bad for looking at the girl, as she no longer dared to look back at the girl. He stared straight at the ceiling of this room.

"My name is Yonggan surname Cia, Miss," he replied.

Xiao Meilin continued to stare at the young man's face. He could not deny, the handsome young man did look a little younger than him.

"Cia Yonggan, you don't be too shy" Xiao Meilin said. Then he clearly asked back. "What is your relationship with Hei Laohu's society?"

Cia Yonggan certainly did not understand what to answer, because indeed he had no ties to the underground society. Besides that he was confused somehow he should have called this girl beside him. Cici (called big sister) is wrong, so-called miss is also considered too shy.

Then he answered. "Miss.. Tweet.. Uh.. I have nothing to do with Hei Laohu."

Xiao Meilin who found Cia Yonggan to be all wrong would not want to be amused himself. He realized, Cia Yonggan's misguided attitude because it was sourced from him.

"Hahaha.." the girl chuckled while covering her mouth with one hand. Then he continued. "I think I'm older than you. All right, you can call me Cici."

"Alright, Cici," little Cia Yonggan glanced at Xiao Meilin and back she stared at the ceiling of the room. Then he connected. "Cici, thank you for saving me. But I don't know how you got me out of there."

Their conversation sounds more familiar now. Cia Yonggan completely treated Xiao Meilin as he spoke to an older sister. Instead of looking at Cia Yonggan's police force, Xiao Meilin felt even more familiar with this young man.

"In what way? Of course with swimming. There's no way I'm flying and lifting you off the surface of the water" he said.

Cia Yonggan was shocked. Why swim, was he not in a room as big as a basketball court?

"What do you mean, Cici?" Cia Yonggan asked in surprise and stared back at Xiao Meilin.

"Listen yes, I found you floating under the Shuinan Bridge with legs tied up. It seems like someone is trying to drown you, but whether that person is stupid or how, he doesn't know that the rope that ties your legs is too long, instead of drowning, you become floating. Hikhikhik.." he laughed at the stupidity of the man who tried to drown Cia Yonggan at that time.

Ah, so it is. In Cia Yonggan's mind, this must have been the result of Wei Heng's carelessness. It was likely that the young man who hated him who intervened drowned him after he was unconscious. However, since Wei Heng was incompetent, he was unable to determine the depth of the Minjiang River. He subconsciously thanked the reckless young man. If only Wei Heng had been a little more thorough, he would have drowned to death.

Looking at the silent Cia Yonggan, Xiao Meilin continued asking "So how?"

"How's it going, Cici?" Cia Yonggan was confused.

"You haven't answered my question, what is your relationship with Hei Laohu?" Xiao Meilin was still curious.

"So I told you, Cici, that I have nothing to do with Hei Laohu" Cia Yonggan replied firmly.

"Don't lie. You almost died with bruises all over your body. If it's not dealing with members of the underground society, then it's the result of who? And you were also seen in the front row at the funeral of the late Gao Li Li Liang. Are you going to deny you have any connection with Hei Laohu?" said Xiao Meilin Sharply.

Xiao Meilin's words were like lightning striking in broad daylight to Cia Yonggan, startling. It turned out that Xiao Meilin had seen him at Gao Li Liang's funeral and the girl was also able to relate the incident to his presence at Gao Li Liang's funeral.

"Damn!" Cia Yonggan cursed in the heart.

On the surface, he answered. "I don't know how to answer that, because I have nothing to do with Hei Laohu."

"good. What about the daughter of the late leader Hei Laohu? Don't you have a relationship with him too? What is his name, which you always call delirious. Ahh, Mei Gui! Mei Gui, you wait for me, as you said while delirious. Isn't she Gao Li Liang's daughter? Was she the pretty girl that was next to you when the eater was? Is he your lover?" there was a jealous tone when Xiao Meilin said that.

"Cici, here.. That's.." Cia Yonggan was embarrassed to have to talk about his love affair with another girl.

"This is what? Answer the truth!" Xiao Meilin pressed on.

"True, Gao Mei Gui is the daughter of the late Gao Li Li Liang and she is my lover," Cia Yonggan said steadily as she looked at Xiao Meilin.
