Quietly watching the boy lying on the bed with his eyes tightly shut, sleeping very restlessly, Qin Zhan frowned slightly, raised his hand and gently stroked the boy’s cheek, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead bit by bit.
Suddenly, the boy started to struggle, his uneasy eyelashes fluttering slightly, casting shadows on his cheeks that sometimes grew and shrank. His pale lips slightly parted and he started rambling incoherently, "Mom! Don’t touch my mom... Run! Xiaoyuan, run!"
Watching Bi Xia in this state, the phoenix eyes flashed with heartache. Qin Zhan tightly held Bi Xia’s small hand and softly said, "Little Nine, Little Nine, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid..."
"I am not a bastard, not..."
"Don’t want daddy, mommy, don’t cry, don’t cry... I will protect you from now on..." I will protect you...
Gently holding the boy, Qin Zhan softly patted his back, "It’s alright now, alright now, Fourth Brother is back... Little Nine protects mommy and brother, Fourth Brother protects Little Nine, okay?"
In a daze, a gentle voice was whispering something by his ear. The boy slightly opened his starry eyes, and in his blurry vision appeared a cold face. Bi Xia blinked lightly and clung tightly to the corner of Qin Zhan’s clothes, as if confirming something. Tears slid from the corners of his eyes, he softly mumbled, "Fourth Brother... You finally came back..."
Mom was hospitalized, Bi Xiaoyuan was beaten, and the Bi Xiaohai you gave me also got injured... But... she avenged... For those people, she did not let any of them off...
Watching the boy fall asleep again, gently kissing away the tears from the corner of his eyes, Qin Zhan solemnly and devoutly whispered to the boy, "From today on, I won’t let anyone hurt you... Never!"
Gently placing the boy back on the bed, carefully tucking him in, then gently stroking the black hair damp with cold sweat, Qin Zhan straightened up slightly, deeply gazing at the boy for a long time, without hesitation, he turned and walked towards the door.
Those deep brown phoenix eyes instantly radiated a fiery gold, cold frost swirling in his pupils.
Opening the door and walking into the study, Qin Zhan looked at the surveillance footage and investigation process from the underground casino on the computer. The phoenix eyes grew darker, and at the moment when Bi Wu’s machete landed on Bi Xia’s arm, the water cup in his hand shattered, the shards fiercely thrown away.
"Oh, so aggressive?" The study door opened, revealing a long-haired young man with extremely bewitching and delicate features, gracefully dodging the flying shards, raising a brow at the icy Qin Zhan.
Phoenix eyes glowed with fiery gold, slowly lifting them to look unwaveringly at the long-haired young man, speaking word by word, "Those people, where are they!"
The long-haired young man was slightly stunned, frowned at Qin Zhan, and after a moment suddenly said, "Are you really moved? Little Nine?"
Qin Zhan didn’t speak, just intensely stared at the long-haired young man for a long time. The long-haired young man sighed softly, whistled, "Let’s go, they are locked up in Dream Drunk."
As the dark cell under the Dream Drunk Casino slowly opened, the long-haired young man walked in front, his face always bearing a rebellious smirk, lips curving slightly. When he led Qin Zhan to the room where Bi Qingzhi and the others were held, the long-haired young man leaned lazily against the wall, pointing inside, "Go on, they’re all in there."
With a slight nod, Qin Zhan was just about to walk in when the long-haired young man suddenly said, "I say, go easy on them, don’t kill them. Your elder brother didn’t want me messing with these things, if something happens I won’t be able to explain it to your elder brother."
Qin Zhan looked expressionlessly at the long-haired young man, "That’s your elder brother, you fear him, I don’t."
"Me, fear him?" The long-haired young man snorted, a surprisingly carefree note in his tone.
Ignoring the long-haired young man further, Qin Zhan opened the cell door and walked in, looking at those who scrambled to the corner upon seeing him, Qin Zhan clenched his fist, his gaze shifting to Bi Wu. Before everyone could react, he suddenly grabbed Bi Wu by the throat, lifting him slowly from the corner.
A big hand slowly applying pressure, watching Bi Wu’s eyes roll back, Qin Zhan coldly said, "It was you who hurt Little Nine, right?"
Fiery gold lighting up in the phoenix eyes, forcing Bi Wu to look straight at him, thin lips curling into a cold arc, "You are a sinner, constantly bullied and scorned, you’re reaching your limit... Remember? That will be your future."
Releasing his grip, letting Bi Wu fall to the ground holding his head and screaming, phoenix eyes coldly sweeping over the remaining people, Qin Zhan said calmly, "Don’t worry, none of you... will be spared..."
You really think, no one cares or loves Bi Xia, huh?!
