Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 257: Wake Up Quickly1

Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Wake Up Quickly_1

Man’s desires are insatiable, and greed is a bottomless chasm.

Under the hold of desire and deep within the abyss of sin, you fall deeper and deeper, until you taste the bitter fruit of your actions.

This perfectly echoes Master Hong Bo’s words: Misfortune and blessings have no door, one calls upon them themselves; the retribution of good and evil, follows like a shadow.

The incident at Hei Shan was finally resolved, and the ti was creeping towards dawn.

Qin Sisi walked to the door, preparing to inform Xie Kexin’s parents that their daughter’s condition had stabilized.

As the door opened, she got a big fright.

Ning Hao was standing at the door, his back to her, with one foot on either side of the bottom of the door and his arms outstretched, gripping the door fra tightly.

Qin Sisi asked curiously, "Ning Hao, what are you doing?"

Startled by the sound of Qin Sisi’s voice, Ning Hao first tensed, then relaxed, quickly turning around to ask: "Sisi, are you okay?"

Qin Sisi responded with a small smile, "I’m perfectly fine, aren’t I?"

"Oh, right." Ning Hao said sowhat shyly, pulling his arms and legs back in.

Qin Sisi asked again: "You still haven’t told , what were you doing just now?"

Before Ning Hao could answer, Xie Kexin’s parents rushed over, chattering and questioning.

Ning Hao replied helplessly, "It’s because of them. They heard movent inside the room and couldn’t resist wanting to go in and check. I was afraid they’d disturb you, so I had no choice but to block the door."

Ning Hao’s voice was a bit hoarse.

Director Liu, who was standing next to Ning Hao, added: "It’s thanks to Officer Ning, or else us old folks wouldn’t have been able to stop them."

Director Liu’s face was filled with exhaustion. Though youthful and hale, Ning Hao’s greenish eye sockets and hoarse voice betrayed his true state.

It seed that everyone—both inside and outside of that room—had had an exhausting night.

Qin Sisi glanced at Xie Kexin’s parents. The old couple was impulsive indeed. She had already warned them not to disturb, or Xie Kexin’s life would be in danger, but they still tried to barge in recklessly.

Thankfully, Ning Hao and Director Liu were there, otherwise the situation might not have been resolved smoothly.

Father Xie and Mother Xie, seeing Qin Sisi’s prolonged silence, grew even more anxious and shouted, "Young lady, how is my daughter doing? Would you say sothing please?"

Qin Sisi then turned to them, and said aningfully: "Thanks to Officer Ning and Director Liu for ensuring a quiet environnt, Xie Kexin has been saved."

Upon hearing this, Father Xie and Mother Xie were relieved and overjoyed. They thanked Qin Sisi and while pushing past Ning Hao and Director Liu, they rushed into the ward.

Since this matter had a significant impact on the school, Director Liu was also concerned. Hearing Qin Sisi say that Xie Kexin was fine, he sighed in relief.

However, Director Liu was also curious about the mysterious nature of this matter and asked in a low voice, "Sisi, are you sure everything is okay?"

Qin Sisi nodded, replying with certainty, "I assure you, she’s really fine. She’ll wake up soon."

Director Liu was satisfied with her response and continued asking, "So, what was the cause of the illness? Is it..."

Sensing Director Liu’s inquisitive look, Qin Sisi hesitated for a mont before saying, "It’s sothing unspeakable. You just need to understand it in your heart."

Director Liu nodded in agreent. So things indeed are better kept unspoken. As a leader of a higher education institution, it was inappropriate to discuss such matters openly.

Being wise, Director Liu closed his mouth and stopped asking further questions.

Ning Hao, aware of Qin Sisi’s special abilities, wasn’t surprised at all.

However, Ning Hao was quite worried about Qin Sisi’s safety. Even though Qin Sisi stood before him looking alright, Ning Hao still asked again, "Sisi, there was fighting going on inside, are you hurt?"

Qin Sisi shook her head and replied, "I’m fine, don’t worry."

After visiting their daughter, Mother Xie ca over to Qin Sisi, looking worried. "Sis, Kexin’s complexion has improved a lot, but when will she wake up? My heart is on tenterhooks as long as she doesn’t co around."

Qin Sisi replied gently, "Her Yang energy is weak. As the sun rises and the Yang energy in the air gradually intensifies, she will naturally wake up."

Mother Xie looked at Qin Sisi skeptically, "Are you sure about this?"

With a solemn look, Qin Sisi said, "Absolutely confident. If you don’t believe , I will stay here with you all until she wakes up."

After all, she had already stayed the night, waiting a few more hours wouldn’t be a problem.

Furthermore, Qin Sisi wanted to wait until Xie Kexin woke up to ask about the Miao Ethnic Group artifact.

If there were any problems with that artifact, it would need to be dealt with as soon as possible.

Seeing Qin Sisi’s confident assertion, Mother Xie felt a little more at ease, and gratefully said, "Thank you, Sis."

After speaking, Mother Xie went back to her daughter’s bedside, her loving gaze fixed on the unconscious Xie Kexin. The affection of a mother towards her child was all too evident.

Qin Sisi glanced enviously at the family of three. Although Xie Kexin’s parents could be a little out of touch, their love and worry for Xie Kexin was genuine.

Thinking of her own parents who were no longer in this world, Qin Sisi couldn’t help but sigh dejectedly.

Ye You imdiately lifted up its head; its wide, round, violet eyes looked inquisitively at Qin Sisi.

Following Qin Sisi’s gaze, Ye You saw the loving family of three and guessed Qin Sisi’s thoughts.

Ye You lowered its head, its soft tongue gently licked the back of Qin Sisi’s hand.

Feeling the wet sensation on her hand, Qin Sisi looked down at Ye You, seeing the concern in its eyes.

Qin Sisi gave a small shake of her head, signaling that she was okay.

Thinking of the exhaustion Ning Hao and Director Liu had been through, Qin Sisi looked up at them and said, "You two have been working hard all night. Go back and rest. I can handle things here."

Ning Hao imdiately rejected the idea, "No, we arrived together and we will leave together."

Director Liu also chid in, "Yeah, we’ve been waiting all night, we don’t mind waiting a bit longer."

Qin Sisi felt a warmth in her heart. Saying "thank you" seed too insincere, so she just rewarded them with a gracious smile.

Ning Hao then asked, "Sisi, are you hungry?"

With Ning Hao’s asking, Qin Sisi realized she was indeed hungry.

She had eaten dinner yesterday evening, stayed up in the hospital room, and fought a tough battle with Hei Shan. She had certainly expended a lot of energy.

However, Qin Sisi felt a little shy to directly say she was hungry and showed so hesitation.

Ning Hao imdiately understood, and announced, "Take a rest, I’ll go out and buy sothing to eat."

Before Qin Sisi could say anything, Ning Hao strode away. His tall figure soon disappeared around the corridor corner.
