Once they arrived at the hospital, Chu Ningyi immediately carried the little darling down from the car.

By the time Shui Anluo opened her car door, he had already reached the hospital’s entrance.

Shui Anluo’s hand, which was still holding onto the car door, tightened its grip. She took a deep breath and suppressed the stinging pain in her heart before getting down from the car.

The surface area of Yuan Jiayi’s burn was rather large. Her entire thigh was pretty much affected.

When Shui Anluo walked in, she could hear the maid crying. It seemed that as she was washing clothes, Yuan Jiayi had wanted some water but never thought that the table would be too high. When she reached out, she had lost her grip and the water in the kettle splashed onto her thigh.

As Shui Anluo imagined the scene, she could not help but feel sympathetic pain on her legs.

To have freshly boiled water splashed all over one’s thigh, what kind of agony was that?

Chu Ningyi’s expression was ashen. The little darling seemed to sense his daddy’s irritation so he only yawned and curled into his daddy’s arms like a good boy.

Yuan Jiayi was still in the emergency room and had not come out yet. Shui Anluo slowly walked to Chu Ningyi’s side and reached out to hold the little darling. “He’s falling asleep, give him to me.”

Shui Anluo’s voice was indifferent. It was so calm that it was like an ocean without its waves.

Chu Ningyi lowered his head to look and saw that Shui Anluo had taken the little darling from his arms. The lack of emotion on her face caused him to feel strangely annoyed.

“Shui Anluo…” Chu Ningyi said but the emergency room’s door was flung open at that very moment.

Shui Anluo looked up. Chu Ningyi had already walked over.

At this moment, Yuan Jiayi was still unconscious but her face was as white as a sheet.

Shui Anluo looked up as the thick smell of burn ointment lingered on the tip of her nose.

The smell quickly entered her lungs through the air, carrying a scorching sensation.

She had noticed Chu Ningyi’s clenched fist on his side. He was anxious and his anxiety had reached an uncontrollable state.

Hence, to him, Yuan Jiayi was still an important and irreplaceable person in his life.

“She has third-degree burns and it’ll definitely scar but don’t worry, Director Chu. After all, technology can do wonders these days. These scars can be removed.” The doctor explained after taking off his glasses.

Chu Ningyi stood next to the bed and lowered his head to stare at Yuan Jiayi’s bandaged thigh. There was an obvious red scar carved on her skin. The sight of it was extremely horrifying.

A sea of fire seemed to flash across Chu Ningyi’s eyes. He could not resist clenching his fist and he clenched them even more as he watched Yuan Jiayi being wheeled back to her ward.

“Go, Ningyi…”

In the midst of a devastating fire, a man whose entire face was bloodied and blackened stood as his legs were mercilessly licked by the flames. The man who had been pushed out had no time to turn back before the fire began to spread. Someone had pulled him away. All he could see were the flames burning into the sky and the man being burned alive.

Shui Anluo held the sleeping little darling and stared at Chu Ningyi whose body was tense even after the doctor had left for a long while. Was he that concerned about Yuan Jiayi?

Shui Anluo got up and walked over to carefully pat him on his shoulder. “Chu Ningyi? Chu Ningyi?”

Chu Ningyi shook abruptly, startlingShui Anluo. She held the little darling and took a step back.

However, she felt a chill deep down in her heart. Indeed, only one person could reduce him to this state. It was just unfortunate that this person’s name was Yuan Jiayi.

Chu Ningyi returned to his senses and realized that his palms were now drenched in sweat. He had remembered that incident again. It was an incident which he could never forget regardless of how many years have gone by.
