Chapter 395 - 204. Why is Mu Jin Huan, whose private life is as clean as a blank sheet of paper, involved with such a woman?
After hanging up the phone, Mu Jin Huan drove to the hospital.The afterglow of the sunset filtered through the car window, casting half of his sharply contoured face in orange-yellow sunlight and the other half in shadow.
Deep within his calm black eyes, there was a hint of impatience that others would find hard to detect.
A dense crowd had gathered beside the hospital’s inpatient department, their chatter almost drowning out the city’s noise. Emergency responders were urgently inflating a safety cushion while someone, using a loudspeaker, attempted to talk down a would-be jumper from the rooftop.
Mu Jin Huan strode into the hospital, his firm jaw tightly set. "Where is the person?"
Doctors had to jog to keep up with his pace, hastily replying, "On the rooftop. We dare not act recklessly for fear of agitating Miss Yu."
It was shift change time in the evening at the hospital, and many people were coming and going. The elevator stopped on almost every floor.
In the crowded elevator, the distant and aloof presence of Mu Jin Huan created an aura of his own. His black eyes were slightly lowered, concealing any emotions flawlessly; his profound facial features remained calm.
The elevator finally reached the top floor. The accompanying doctor led him towards the entrance to the rooftop, "Mr. Mu, this way."
Fire department personnel and hospital security quickly stepped back to clear the way. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel_fіre.net
Mu Jin Huan stopped at the door, his calm black eyes fixed on Yu Qinglu sitting on the railing, her back to everyone, her long black hair wildly tangled in the air.
Her thin body was draped in a loose hospital gown, looking like a solitary leaf that might be blown away if the wind were slightly stronger.
Mu Jin Huan’s indifferent gaze swept over the doctors behind him, his voice carrying a hidden sharpness, "When I left last night, she was fine. How can she not even last a day in your hospital?"
The Mu Family’s influence in Qing City was now unparalleled. The doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, lowered his head, and respectfully apologized, "Sorry, Mr. Mu, this was our oversight."
When the patient was admitted yesterday, she was quite willing to cooperate with treatment. Who would have thought that in less than twenty-four hours, she would pull something like this?
...
The music playing in the earphones suddenly stopped for some reason. Yu Qinglu took off her earphones and pulled out her phone from her pocket, realizing she had accidentally pressed the pause button.
A pair of black shoes came into her peripheral vision. She was startled for a moment before turning her head to look at the newcomer. Her pale cheeks showed a look of surprise and joy, "Mu Huan, why are you here?"
Mu Jin Huan didn’t come too close, keeping a two-meter distance, his black eyes showing no signs of disturbance. "Qinglu, didn’t we agree yesterday? What are you doing?"
The man’s voice was level and steady, as if indifferent to her precarious situation sitting on the railing of a seventeen-story building, where a slight lapse could make her fall.
The wind whooshed past her ears, inflating her loose hospital gown. Yu Qinglu’s excessively thin body appeared even more haggard.
She looked away, no longer gazing at him, and pulled a faint smile at the corner of her lips, "I’m watching the sunset. It’s quite high here; I can watch for a bit longer."
Never before had she realized this city could have such a beautiful side.
"You’re thirty-two, not three," Mu Jin Huan stood tall and upright in the wind, the deep emotions in his profound black eyes nearly impenetrable to outsiders. "If you want to see the sunset, I can have someone take you somewhere else with a better view than here."
Disturbing so many people, Yu Qinglu didn’t seem to realize anything wrong with her actions at all.
She put on one earphone and pressed the play button on the music app on her phone, her voice airy, "Mu Huan, you’ve helped me find doctors, arranged treatments, counseled me; I’m already very grateful. Go take care of your things, don’t worry about me."
Whether she lived or died, he hardly seemed to care.
The only reason he still did these things for her was because of that person who had died.
Mu Jin Huan quietly moved closer, and before Yu Qinglu had any chance to react, he grasped her arm and pulled her off the railing to a relatively safe place.
His movements were so quick that Yu Qinglu hadn’t even processed it by the time she was standing on the ground.
The cool scent of mint lingered at her nose, blown away by the wind before she fully inhaled it. In her daze, she heard his calm and distant voice, "If you don’t want to cause me trouble, don’t do this again."
Looking at the man’s cold and indifferent features, she suddenly thought of the phrase ’kindness to the utmost’.
