Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
To Song Ning’s surprise, the pain she had expected did not come. Instead, she fell into someone’s arms. She was in a daze as someone helped her up and did not regain her senses until she heard a familiar voice ring from above her head.
“Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself? Tell me where it hurts?”
‘Mu Chen!’
Song Ning was dumbstruck as though she had been electrocuted.
Mu Chen checked Song Ning’s body for injuries from top to bottom while tears fell like rain down her face.
After Mu Chen determined Song Ning was not hurt, he looked at the face that was hidden by a mask. With just the pair of eyes alone, he could confirm her identity. He said in a trembling voice, “Sorry, I’m late.”
He wanted to stroke her head, but his hands were trembling so much.
Song Ning reached out and hugged as she continued to cry.
Mu Chen tightened his hold around her, overwhelmed by the familiar feeling.
At this moment, Cheng Che, who had knocked the man out, called out, panting, “Brother, sister-in-law, we have to leave now!”
Mu Chen patted Song Ning’s back and said, “We have to go now.”
Cheng Che lifted the man off the ground with great difficulty and supported him as though he was supporting a drunken person.
Song Ning knew it was important that they left now so she hurriedly followed Mu Chen.
…
They returned to the hotel that Cheng Che had arranged for the cast and crew of the film to stay in.
The hotel, which was under the Mu Group, was the best in the area.
The lobby was crowded, and no one paid attention to them when they entered the hotel. Even the security guards did not spare them a second glance.
After entering the elevator, they went straight to the top floor. Mu Chen deliberately blocked Song Ning so the surveillance camera would not capture her.
After entering the room, Cheng Che threw the man to the ground. Beads of sweat could be seen on his forehead; he was clearly exhausted. However, he did not rest. Instead, he hurriedly made arrangements for the surveillance cameras to be turned off and the surveillance footage to be deleted.
Meanwhile, Mu Chen embraced Song Ning in his arms again. He was so overwhelmed that he could not speak. He only hugged her tightly, feeling her heartbeat and listening to her breathing.
Cheng Che found a rope and clumsily tied the unconscious man up. Then, he dragged the man into the bathroom and closed the door. When he came out, he clapped his hands and said, “Brother, hurry up! We need to discuss this matter now!”
When Cheng Che saw he was being ignored, he said anxiously, “Brother, we don’t know if that man has accomplices! We need to think of a countermeasure!”
With this, Mu Chen finally let go of Song Ning who was still crying. He said hoarsely, “I finally found you, Song Ning.”
“Sister-in-law, my brother almost went crazy from worrying,” Cheng Che added to lighten the atmosphere.
Song Ning looked up at the man whom she had been thinking about day and night. She could not say a word and only continued to cry.
Mu Chen stroked the side of her face and softly said, “Let me have a look at your injury.”
Song Ning nodded. She raised her hand to remove her mask.
The hideous scar on her face stung Mu Chen and Cheng Che’s eyes.
While Mu Chen pulled Song Ning into his arms again, Cheng Che said furiously, “When I catch them, I’ll cut them into pieces!”
Song Ning gently pulled away. She looked up at Mu Chen and said softly, ”
Mu Chen put his hand next to Song Ning’s ear and said softly, “Let me take a look at your injury.”
Song Ning nodded. She raised her hand and slowly took off the mask.
The Hideous Scar Stung Mu Chen and Cheng Che’s eyes.
Mu Chen pulled Song Ning into his arms again.
Cheng Che was furious. “When I catch them, I’ll cut them into pieces! Cut them into pieces!”
Song Ning gently broke away from Mu Chen’s arms. She looked up at Mu Chen and said softly, “I… I don’t think I’ll be able to see anyone with this face…”
Mu Chen held her face and gently kissed the scar. His eyes shone with tears as he said, “You’re alive.. All that matters is that you’re alive. This is the greatest gift God has given me!”
