Returning to the hospital entrance, Tang Sili saw the figure standing at the door, and frowned slightly.

Zhao Mengjin walked down the steps, slowly approached him, and reached out her hand, just as she was about to touch his clothes, she suddenly spoke: "You scared me to death—"

Tang Sili didn’t say anything and brushed past her.

Because of what had happened just now, it was actually safer for him not to go home at this time.

"Wait." Zhao Mengjin turned around and called out to his back, "I’ve called my uncle, he said he will arrange people to protect you."

"I know." Because he knew, he chose to return to the hospital instead of wandering around.

"You must protect your own life, understand?"

Listening to her nagging, Tang Sili paused, turned back, and swept a disdainful gaze over her face: "What are you thinking about?"

"I’m just saying—" Zhao Mengjin replied, breathing somewhat laboriously as the fright she experienced earlier hadn’t yet subsided.

"Take a deep breath before you speak."

Seeing that he noticed her nervousness, Zhao Mengjin sometimes resented herself for falling for such a man, a man who could see through her.

"I mean, if something happens to you, it would be trouble for me and many others."

Hearing her say that, Tang Sili’s lips curled into a cold smile: "Am I hearing a joke? Someone who just tried to kill me is saying that my life is important?"

Zhao Mengjin bit her lip and said, "You know—"

"Know what?"

"Know that I couldn’t bring myself to harm you!" Zhao Mengjin widened her eyes and shouted directly at him.

Facing her passionate expression, Tang Sili indifferently tugged at his jacket and said, "I wanted to ask you, have you been in contact with Mrs. Ou before?"

Zhao Mengjin was startled, could it be that the nurse that night told him about her meeting with Ou Chunhua?

"Why, hard to say? Discussing some secret matters?" Tang Sili’s tone was filled with laziness and mockery, "She could only talk to you about her son, nothing else."

"No, I mean, why did you suddenly bring her up?" Zhao Mengjin was no fool, she heard something in his words.

Then it was Tang Sili’s turn to question: "How did you know I was in trouble?" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"I saw Director Gao call my little uncle. I just happened to go to Director Gao’s office. It seems the police contacted Director Gao." Just as Zhao Mengjin said this, the sound of police cars reached the hospital entrance.

It must be that witnesses on the scene or surveillance footage exposed him as the one targeted in the attack.

This is not a good thing. Tang Sili quickly led her into the hospital building; they’ll see how Director Gao would handle the police matter. He didn’t have the time and energy to deal with the police.

Zhao Mengjin followed him up the stairs. At this moment, climbing stairs was certainly safer than taking the elevator.

After climbing for a while, she was slightly out of breath and bent down.

He could have ignored her and continued forward, but he stopped, turned back to see her panting, and said, "Didn’t Dr. Lu come to see you before?"

"What?" Zhao Mengjin didn’t understand his words.

Dr. Lu was her orthopedic surgeon, supposed to be her attending physician.

"I said, does Dr. Lu know about your condition?" Tang Sili asked word by word.

Zhao Mengjin looked at herself: "My condition?"

"Getting out of breath after climbing just a few stairs, lacking physical strength."

He might as well have said she was a frail young lady, like a flower that anyone couldn’t touch.
