Chapter 601: Chapter 601: At this moment, he seemed to have gone with her already...5

"Why?"

"Would you not feel even a trace of guilt when you see her? Not a bit of self-reproach? Sir, when it comes down to it, Aning’s situation today is largely due to you, and to a certain extent, me as well. We both have an undeniable part in this."

His tone with this last sentence was already as direct as his thoughts, without the slightest hint of fear.

Lin Yebai’s handsome face paled upon hearing this. He wanted to scold the man, but when he opened his mouth, he realized he could not muster a single counterargument. Instead, his face went from pale to ashen to completely drained of any human color.

"There’s something else, Sir. I hope you can be mentally prepared!"

Xiaojin left him with this last piece of advice before turning away. He didn’t look back as he closed the door and departed...

He hadn’t wanted to say this, but the official news from Honghai was that at the scene of the incident, both parties involved had already died. It was that man who refused to give up, insisting like a madman that they save her, which led to her being brought to the hospital.

After coming out of the study, he happened to meet Mrs. Zhang, so he instructed her, "Mrs. Zhang, please keep a close eye on the master. Call me if there’s any trouble?"

Mrs. Zhang nodded hurriedly, "Okay!"

Xiaojin did not live in this estate. After he left, besides the few servants, there really was no one else.

Xiaojin went home, and he barely slept that night.

The next morning, as soon as he got up, he did nothing else before making a call to Honghai Hospital, "Hello? I want to ask about the female patient who was brought in last night from the shooting. Is she alive?"

The nurse was taken aback, "You are...?"

Xiaojin quickly explained, "I’m a friend of hers from A City. I just wanted to ask about her condition, planning to visit her today."

"Then you don’t need to come, I’m afraid. She will probably be sent back to A City today!"

I’m afraid...

What did that mean?

As Xiaojin listened, it felt as though something had fallen from the depths of his heart. He suddenly sat up in bed, all sense of sleepiness gone, "What do you mean? Has she passed?"

The nurse sighed, "That’s about the gist of it. The patient was already beyond help when she was brought in. It was her husband who adamantly refused to accept it, insisting she was still alive and made us attempt resuscitation."

"And now?"

"She has just been maintained on a ventilator. Once we remove it, there’s nothing else to be done," the nurse sighed with a sense of regret and reluctance, but she still chose to tell the truth.

As a medical worker, she had no choice. Family members of patients might not accept reality, but they had to face the facts as they were.

Xiaojin’s phone suddenly dropped from his hand with a "snap." He sat there for a very long time, motionless.

Only when a ray of sunlight started to seep in from outside, directly hitting his face and causing him to squint, did he finally come to his senses. He then got up from the bed and immediately went to the restroom to get ready.

"Mrs. Zhang? Where’s the master?"

"Xiaojin, I was just about to tell you. You asked me to watch the master yesterday. I kept an eye out all night and didn’t notice anything, but when I went to bring him breakfast tea this morning, I found that the master was no longer in his room."

"What?"

Xiaojin, who was brushing his teeth at the time, changed his expression immediately upon hearing this, "Gone?"

Mrs. Zhang nodded earnestly, "Yes, gone. And the car that was in the yard is also missing. Xiaojin, did the master go out?"
