“You’re right, if I can’t protect them, then killing someone with my power would be a snap,” he said.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan instantly fell silent.

After a long pause, “Ahem, well, murder is illegal, not good.”

Having said that, he quickly picked up the medical kit and headed towards the carved door.

Arriving at the master bedroom, Li Yuan examined Gu Qiangwei’s wounds and found multiple bruises on her body, with the one on her forehead noticeably worsened.

His brows knitted together tightly, his expression turning serious.

“What on earth happened to cause such injuries?”

Qin Sijue’s handsome face also darkened, scenes from the Gu Family’s living room flashing through his mind.

He had no idea what had transpired there before he arrived.

“Looks like a hospital stay is in order,” Li Yuan declared.

Qin Sijue frowned, “Is it necessary?”

“Yes, she has multiple bruises. She must undergo a full-body examination and stay in the hospital for observation for a few days.”

“Let’s go.”

As soon as he spoke, Qin Sijue had already lifted the person from the bed.

Once the group reached the hospital and completed a comprehensive examination, Gu Qiangwei had bruises in many places, with the most severe being on her forehead and ankle.

The wound on her forehead had worsened, and her ankle had swollen.

“When will she wake up?”

At the bedside, Qin Sijue looked sideways, glancing at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan, watching Gu Qiangwei who was still unconscious on the hospital bed, estimated, “She should wake up soon.”

Just as he spoke, the person on the bed stirred, her eyelashes fluttering.

“Look, she’s waking up.”

The moment she opened her eyes, Gu Qiangwei could feel every bone in her body as though it had been taken apart and reassembled, the pain causing her to furrow her brows tightly.

As her vision cleared, the first thing that came into view was an exquisitely beautiful face.

“Awake now?” The voice that spoke was Li Yuan’s, who looked at Gu Qiangwei with a perpetual light, mocking smile on his lips.

Gu Qiangwei glanced around the stark white room, her first thought being that she was in a hospital.

“How did you get these injuries?” Qin Sijue asked, staring at her.

Making eye contact with his dark pupils, Gu Qiangwei paused, the memories surfacing in her mind.

What was he doing at the Gu family’s place then?

“I fell.”

She replied and tried to sit up.

“Here, let me help you!” Seeing her struggle, Li Yuan quickly extended his hand to assist her.

“You can leave now!”

At the moment Qin Sijue’s voice sounded, Li Yuan’s motion to help her paused, and he silently moved away from the bedside.

Gu Qiangwei, however, frowned. Was this man always so rude in his way of speaking?

She braced herself and leaned against the headboard.

But the pain all over her body instantly drained the color from her face.

Qin Sijue felt an urge to reach out and help her, but ultimately, he chose to ignore it.

“How did you fall down like that?”

“Down the stairs.”

Qin Sijue’s dark eyes deepened, “Did they push you down?”

Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help but pause, then she lowered her eyes.

Indeed, at that time, she had been desperately trying to break free from Gu Shijie’s grasp, but she hadn’t expected him to actually let go, resulting in her tumbling down the stairs due to inertia. It didn’t seem right to say she had been pushed.

“No, I was just careless.”

“Then you truly are foolish.”

“…” Gu Qiangwei looked up, glancing at the man before her.

Why does this man always seem so arrogant?

“How did you end up at my house?”

After spending a night, Gu Qiangwei felt she had come to know the man in front of her and asked without thinking.

“It.” Qin Sijue turned his head away, glancing at a figure squatting by the edge of the bed.

Following his gaze, Gu Qiangwei also looked over and immediately spotted Mengqi.
