Chapter 98 - Qi Lei's Faith And God

Qi Lei was lying on the bed.

This was Mu Qing's hospital, and Qi Lei was Xing Jiuan's younger brother. Of course, he would give him the best.

When he saw Xing Jiuan, he moved and accidentally tugged at his wound. However, he did not cry out in pain and only frowned.

Qi Lei was a very handsome boy.

He had just turned eighteen and had yet to fully mature. He looked very obedient and had the appearance between a juvenile and a young man.

"Sister," he called out weakly. His eyes were very bright, and he seemed to be very happy to see Xing Jiuan here.

When Xing Jiuan came over, one of the underlings at the side moved a chair for her to sit down.

She still had not found out what had happened.

"Why were you injured?" Her voice was cold and serious.

Qi Lei knew that it was because she was worried about him.

Xing Jiuan had always been very good to him.

He wanted to say something to tell Xing Jiuan not to worry, but one of her underlings spoke anxiously.

"Boss, Lei was trying to save a few children. We saw a few human traffickers. He went to save the children, but we didn't expect those people to have knives."

Qi Lei pursed his lips nervously, worried that Xing Jiuan would be angry.

He was indeed impulsive at that time.

Xing Jiuan had told him many times that he had to act within his means.

He didn't want to cause trouble for Xing Jiuan either.

Xing Jiuan was usually very low-profile. Therefore, he did not know much about Xing Jiuan's status. But even if he knew, he would not want to be a burden to Xing Jiuan.

Xing Jiuan had saved him from the darkness back then. It was as if a god had suddenly appeared in his life.

It was like a god descended to earth to save him.

He did not wish to see Xing Jiuan's disappointed gaze.

However, unexpectedly, Xing Jiuan said, "You did very well. However, don't put yourself in such danger next time."

Qi Lei was delighted. He was about to say something when Xing Jiuan spoke again.

"Qi Lei, remember, I said you did well this time not because I want you to disregard your own safety again when you try to do good in the future.

"Every person's life is important, but you're more important to me than them."

The underlings did not understand this emotional scene as they kept talking. They had advised Qi Lei before, but he was disobedient.

Qi Lei pretended not to hear those people. He just looked at Xing Jiuan with a sincere and focused gaze as if he was looking at his own god.

"I understand, Sis.

"Never again.

"I will protect myself."

Also, he had to protect his sister from now on.

Qi Lei thought to himself.

Xing Jiuan smiled.

"Your wounds might hurt a lot in the next two days. It's inevitable that the anesthesia will wear off. If you're in too much pain, remember to speak up about it."

"I got it, Sis."

However, he had always been able to endure pain. He was already used to it.

He had suffered many injuries in the past. There had even been times when his wounds would rot as they went without treatment.

He was already eighteen years old. He could already endure pain when he was still young, and now, he was already an adult and had such a good sister. How could he still feel pain?

Qi Lei did not know how to act spoiled. He only knew not to let his sister worry.

Xing Jiuan accompanied him for a while. In the end, Qi Lei's injuries were too severe, so he quickly fell asleep again.

Xing Jiuan told the rest of her underlings to leave and not disturb his sleep.

At this moment, she received a call.

It was from Lin Feng. He had arrived.

Xing Jiuan informed Mu Qing and the two of them went downstairs together.

"Why did you guys come down? I was just about to go up and find you all."
