Imperfect Desires Chapter 730 – In A Hurry

“Dad!” Ah-Si ran over to support Xin Zimen who was about to fall down. When he noticed his father’s pale face, he was frightened. “Dad, what’s wrong?” He could see the look of helplessness and pain in his father’s eyes. He could hardly believe that this vulnerable looking man was his own father.

“Xiao Zi,” Zhao Huan also came over along with her husband. “Is everything alright?” She couldn’t help rushing over when she heard Ah-Si’s frantic voice calling out Xin Zimen. It gave her an unsettling feeling.

Xin Zimen’s lips had parted but he couldn’t say a word before his sister-in-law’s soft and gentle eyes. How was he supposed to tell her that she might lose the daughter she just got back? Did he have it in himself to shatter her happiness? He didn’t! 

The more he thought like this, the more unsightly his expressions became. And the ache in his heart was growing wild as well. He really couldn’t breathe now. 

Zhao Huan stepped up, “Ah-Si, help him to the couch. He can’t breathe.” As they laid him down, Zhao Huan tried to do the first aid and he finally breathed out with difficulty. “You’re scaring me now.”

Xin Zimen avoided her eyes and only said, “Hospital! Now!”

“Ah-Si, get the cars out,” Xin Zemin said when he noticed the look in his brother’s eyes. At the end of the day, the other was his younger brother. He could still tell something was up just from one look. He felt uneasy all over.

Later Xin Zemin sent Zhao Huan with Ah-Si but took the same car as his brother. As they got on the road, Xin Zemin noticed his brother’s apprehensive look and trembling body. 

“What’s going on?” he questioned but Xin Zimen had no answer for him. “Tell me, damn it! What happened at the hospital?!”

Hearing his brother’s loud voice, Xin Zimen closed his eyes and answered, “I don’t know. I just know that she is in the operation theatre right now.”

It was a good thing that the driver was the one driving right now or else, Xin Zemin might have gotten into an accident. His lips were shaking as he let out, “How is she?”

Xin Zimen shook his head in reply and his elder brother closed his eyes in despair and helplessness!

….

Meanwhile, Su Feifei watched all her subordinates that were on duty tonight were lying in her feet dead. It was no wonder those attackers found their way in so easily! They came prepared!

Her hands were clenched tightly but her anger couldn’t be seen on her face as she professionally questioned, “Cause of death?”

“Reporting to Director Su, they consumed something poisoned.”

“Of course, they did!” she took a deep breath and instructed, “Check the surveillance to see what they ate?”

Suddenly someone ran inside and informed, “That won’t be necessary. They all only drank coffee from the vending machine.”

“You’re telling me someone managed to poison the coffee from the vending machine?” questioned Su Feifei through gritted teeth.

The subordinate lowered his head and replied, “We just confirmed it. A nurse also died after drinking the coffee from the same vending machine.”

“Director, the surveillance recording is damaged. We can’t retrieve it!”

“Director, I just asked around. The vending machines in the whole hospital were restocked today.”

Su Feifei laughed in derision, “Twenty of my people are dead! And you’re telling me I don’t have a lead? If I had not come for just a visit, do you all know what would have happened?” Just the thought of what could have happened if she was a little late, made her body shudder! She clearly knew Xiu’s importance to Xin Zimen. 

After all, he put his elite team to keep watch here. And yet, every one of them died an unjust death! For people like them, deaths were common and they won’t shy away from it either but dying from something despicable like poison was dishonorable! They would rather die on a battlefield than such a death!

“Team leader Yan!” 

Su Feifei raised her head and looked at Yan Ying who was walking with difficulty and had a strange look on her face when she noticed so many of her colleagues gathered inside Xiu’s room. She had a bad premonition but when she looked at her aunt and at all those dead bodies lying in her feet, her face ashen.

Su Feifei noticed the blood oozing out of her knee and frowned in disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.

“Where is Xiu? What happened to her?” was Ying’s first question. She had managed to catch that fake doctor with so much difficulty but that bastard ate the poison and died. Who knew when she’d come back everything would have already changed.

“Someone get her to a doctor as well,” ordered Su Feifei in exasperation.

Ying refused to leave as she rushed up to Su Feifei and asked, “Aunt! I’m asking you something! Where is Xiu? What happened to her? And what about Regan? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“I don’t have an answer for you. Not right now! Go get yourself treated first.”

Ying was shunned out and it left her anxious. But no matter how she protested she was still taken away to get herself treated. 

Behind her, Su Feifei looked exhausted. This attack didn’t seem to be done on impulse. It was well thought out. Going as far as poisoning a public vending machine…

She felt like she was gonna go crazy now.

“Seal off this floor. I don’t want any unauthorized person on this floor. Neither a nurse nor a doctor! Collect the samples, send them to the lab. Take the bodies back to the HQ.” She took a pause and added, “And make sure the ones we caught aren’t able to kill themselves! I won’t let them die unless they pay for killing my people!”

Everyone took their orders and scattered around. 

They all had expected that something would happen during Xiu’s stay at the hospital but none of them even imagined it to be this soon. Someone was really in a hurry to get rid of Xiu. But why?
