756 Looking For Soone
"Can't you peacefully rest?"
Ying looked up at her aunt who had brought her laptop for her and replied, "I can't. This is not the ti to laze around. I need to find the culprit behind this attack."
Su Feifei put the laptop by her side and said, "I've sent you an email with everything we have found out. But it's not enough." She took a pause and added, "I'm just glad that your boyfriend actually went to get your coffee from outside of the hospital. Or else..." She didn't dare to think of the consequences. If anything happened to her niece, how would she even face her sister?
Ying recalled the coffee that Han Bohai got for her and Nora. She really had to agree that if he hadn't gone to a coffee chain, she and Nora might also be on the list of deceased right now.
"Where is your boyfriend?"
Ying sighed out, "Sleeping in the room next door. He had been awake for too long. I had to force him to rest."
Su Feifei's eyes softened, "He really loves you." She tutted, "With how thoughtful he is, it's hard to believe that he is my idiot friend's nephew."
"I can tell he loves ," replied Ying. She turned on the laptop and scrolled through the photos at the cri scene. Seeing the dead bodies, her blood boiled. She really wanted to hack soone to pieces. "It's just that our lives are very different."
"Why does that matter?" retorted Su Feifei. "As long as you both love each other, everything can work out. Now, the question is, are you in love with him?"
"I'm not sure," responded Ying. "I do like him. I like it when he is around. He makes feel happy. But I'm not sure how to describe the feelings I have for him. Whether it is love or not, is sothing I'm not sure about."
"Well, I hope you figure out your true feelings. Because the way I see it, it seems you have already fallen for him."
Ying gave her aunt a look, "You have never even dated anyone, how do you know what love is?"
"You don't have to fall in love to know about it," answered Su Feifei.
Ying read through reports from the forensics departnt and asked, "The ones you caught, they really confessed nothing?"
"They are normal rcenaries," told Su Feifei seriously. "Their confession is of no use. But that doesn't an I'll let them go. I'll make sure to keep them alive. But they neither be able to live nor die!"
Ying gave her a thumbs up, "I have full faith in you!"
"Did you tell your grandmother? About your injury?" asked Su Feifei after a long mont of silence. Ying shook her head in response. "Why?" Su Feifei's brows arched in question.
Su Feifei's body stiffened thinking about her sister. "I'd love to hide it from her. But if I did hide it, she's gonna be angrier. What to do?" She really didn't want to suffer through the wrath of her sister. She was instructed to take care of Ying but Ying got injured on her watch. This was definitely a death sentence! How would she dare to face her sister? But she knew if she didn't tell her sister, the situation will worsen. So will her consequences.
"Just let it be for now," said Ying.
"Let it be?" repeated Su Feifei. "You definitely want my sister to have my head on a platter!"
"My mom is such a gentle woman," was what Ying said making Su Feifei's face twitch.
"Gentle and my sister?" scoffed Su Feifei. "Why can't I rember that I had gentle sisters?"
However, she didn't think she had to argue regarding this with her niece. So, she chose to leave. She had to inform her sister on her own, that might get her so leniency. When Su Feifei left her room, Ying saw Xiao Li entering the room with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Do they have any lead?" he asked. He was referring to the attack on Xiu and Darren. He could directly ask his father and yet, he had co to ask her about this.
"Can't share the details of the investigation," replied Ying calmly. And as always, she didn't open her mouth. It was expected so he wasn't surprised at all. She would never disclose confidential details.
"As if you didn't say a word, I won't know anything." Even she knew he would find out about it. While she had been trying to climb ranks in the organization, she didn't even realize when his network had spread so wide. He always knew things even she didn't.
"How are Xiu and Regan?" Ying questioned.
"Both are awake," was all he said. He hesitated for a mont before asking, "So mbers of your team are in Thailand. What for?"
Ying's brows furrowed slightly and she looked at him, "How do you know that? And what does that have to do with you?"
"Nothing," he replied. "I am just curious to know what or who they are looking for. After all, I don't think your team had been assigned any mission recently." He took a pause as he looked at her carefully, "And yet soone from your team is desperately searching for sothing. It has to be a personal matter. And it seems suspicious. That's why I was curious."
Ying also carefully observed his expressions but wasn't able to find anything out of place. He did seem genuinely curious. But the real point was the case she was following. With Xiao Li's expressions, she couldn't tell whether he knew sothing or not.
