Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses Chapter 308

Chapter 308: Regretful Ji Chen

The next day, around noon.

In a special care ward of a hospital in Linjiang City. Ji Chen slowly opened his tightly shut eyes, staring blankly at the ceiling above.

His mory was still stuck on the scene at the gate of the Bihai Flower Villa where Jiang Che had beaten him up.

“Sir, you’re awake!” Mr. Li, who had been watching over him, exclaid excitedly when he saw Ji Chen slowly waking up.

“I’m in a hospital?” Ji Chen looked around the room, puzzled by the surroundings.

“Yes, you are in a hospital now.” Mr. Li nodded, confirming his location.

“You were seriously injured and fell unconscious yesterday, so I had you brought to the hospital imdiately.”

“Jiang Che didn’t kill ?” Ji Chen frowned, puzzled.

Before losing consciousness, he had expected the worst and ntally prepared himself. After all, soone like Jiang Che wouldn’t tolerate any opposition. Given the enmity between them, why hadn’t Jiang Che killed him?

“No, Young Master Jiang didn’t kill you.” Mr. Li’s expression turned a bit strange, as it was indeed unexpected that Jiang Che would spare Ji Chen.

However, after knocking Ji Chen unconscious, Jiang Che simply allowed them to leave.

“Did he say anything?” Ji Chen asked, wondering if Jiang Che had spared him due to his status.

“No, he didn’t say anything.”

“I understand. You can leave now; I want to be alone.” Ji Chen waved his hand, signaling Mr. Li to leave.

Once alone, Ji Chen frowned deeply, lost in thought. He didn’t believe Jiang Che spared him out of kindness. Although he was still alive now, there was no guarantee for the future.

Considering their enmity, it was unlikely Jiang Che would let him off so easily. Initially, Ji Chen didn’t plan to make an enemy of Jiang Che. He had limited ti in Linjiang City, only half a month.

He mainly wanted to see his sister, Ji Qingwan, and eliminate the Tianji Pavilion. Now, not only had he failed to et his sister, but he also made an enemy of Jiang Che.

Thinking of this, Ji Chen’s mouth curled into a helpless smile. Suddenly, the image of the girl who was with Jiang Che at the villa gate yesterday flashed in his mind.

“She’s Qingwan!” After pondering for a while, Ji Chen exclaid in surprise.

The girl from yesterday resembled his mory of Ji Qingwan, despite not seeing her for nearly ten years. He could still recognize her features.

But he didn’t get a chance to acknowledge her before being knocked out by Jiang Che.

Realizing this, Ji Chen gritted his teeth in frustration.

Damn it, he really miscalculated this ti!

Reuniting with Ji Qingwan would need a new plan. After yesterday’s incident, it would be even harder to enter Shen Qingqiu’s villa.

Reflecting on his rash behavior, Ji Chen felt imnse regret. If he hadn’t been so impulsive yesterday, he might have reunited with Ji Qingwan by now.

“Mr. Li, co in!” After sorting out his chaotic thoughts, Ji Chen called out.

“Yes, sir. Is there sothing you need?” Mr. Li entered, looking at Ji Chen with curiosity.

“Investigate the Tianji Pavilion thoroughly. I want a list of all its mbers within a week!” Ji Chen commanded coldly, his expression icy.

“Tianji Pavilion? That might be difficult…” Mr. Li hesitated, his face showing concern.

He knew a bit about the Tianji Pavilion. Its complex connections made it dangerous for a small family like his to investigate. Learning certain secrets could lead to the destruction of his family by those involved.

Ji Chen wasn’t a benefactor of his; there was no reason for Mr. Li to risk everything for him.

He was simply following orders to serve Ji Chen during his stay in Linjiang City. Risking his family’s fate for Ji Chen wasn’t worth it…

“I can grant you the authority to investigate. They won’t dare harm you! Otherwise, they’ll be opposing the entire Northern Territory!” Ji Chen sneered, exuding an aura of dominance.

He understood what Mr. Li was concerned about. If he weren’t preoccupied, he would investigate the Tianji Pavilion himself.
