ven looking, one could tell that the Zeng couple and their children were dead. A thick stench of decay hung heavy in the air under his nostrils.At this time, the door of the main house opened, and a t...Zhang Xuetao knew he had a fever. Although his consciousness was hazy, he could feel a gentle hand stroking his forehead and constantly changing the cool towels on it. They also fed him water to drink, allowing him to finally sleep soundly for two hours.

When Zhang Xuetao opened his eyes, he found himself in a low and cramped kitchen. However, a sleeping person was still in his arms. He moved slightly, and the other person woke up.

Yunshiyu awkwardly climbed up, smoothing her messy hair before speaking:

"Are you awake Are you still feeling any discomfort"

After finishing his words, he reached out and touched Zhang Xuetao's forehead, testing his temperature.

"I'm feeling much better now, thank you! I appreciate you staying up all night taking care of me last night. You worked hard."

Zhang Xuedao's voice was a little hoarse, but he still politely thanked.

"You are my patient, of course I have to take good care of you. I'll go find Brother Zheng to make some rice porridge for you. You should eat some first to fill your stomach."

"I'm going outside to check the situation. If no one is around watching, I'll try to contact your family. For safety's sake, please don't show yourself for now."

Yun Si said, her thoughts clear like the falling rain.

"Okay, I'll give you my home phone number."

Zhang Xuetao happily told Yunsi the number of Cloud and Rain.

Yun Si Yu repeated it, making sure there were no mistakes, then put on her coat and opened the door to the kitchen.

Because it rained last night, the sun hadn't fully risen in the morning, and there was still a chill in the air. She shrugged her shoulders, went to greet Zheng Gege and his family in the main hall, then left a step earlier.

She knew that Zhang Xuetao had gone missing for a night, and Zhang Dashuai must have been looking for him. Therefore, her life-saving grace this time was especially important.

She walked out of the alley at her own pace, looking around as if searching for something to eat. Then she stopped straight in front of a breakfast stall selling wontons and ordered a bowl. She ate it slowly and methodically. After finishing her meal and feeling warm all over, she went to a telephone booth.

Her first phone call was not to the Zhang family, but to the church hospital. The person who answered the phone was the nurse on duty last night, and she had spoken to her before going out.

"Siyu, what time did you come back last night I didn't see you."

Lily, because it rained last night, I stayed at Brother Zheng's place. His child's wound is a little inflamed, and I wasn't very comfortable leaving, so I didn't go back last night.

I wanted to call you, but as you know, there are no phone booths here. And I don't dare go out in the rain alone, so I just called you this morning.

Could someone please swap shifts with me I got caught in the rain and don't feel well. I won't be able to come in for my day shift today. I'd like to switch to a night shift if anyone is willing. If someone swaps with me, I'll cover their shift next time.

"Alright, I understand. Just get some rest during the day and I'll go ask. If you're willing to work for free today, they'll definitely agree."

After ending the call, Yun Siyu finally dialed that familiar number.

Hello

A low voice came through the phone.

"Hello, I'm Xuete's friend. I just happened to meet him being chased yesterday, so I hid him temporarily. His address is the fifth house at the second gate of Yumi Lane in Nanning Port. The head of the household is surnamed Zheng. Please come and pick him up."

Because it's unclear if the people who chased him last night are still around, please try to keep a low profile and avoid involving Zheng Ge and his family, who are sheltering Xue Tao.

Yun Si Yu finished speaking, and without waiting for a response, hung up the phone.

After doing all this, she didn't return to the Zheng family. She knew that as soon as dawn broke, Zhang Xuedao would escape. So she went straight back to the hospital of the church. As for the medicine box, she intentionally left it behind, giving Zhang Xuedao a reason to find her again.

Back at the hospital, Yun Si Yu finally relaxed her tense nerves and went straight to bed.

When Zhang Guanjia received the call, he immediately went to tell Zhang Fenglin about the situation.

"It's better to believe it exists than not, send someone disguised to investigate. If it's true, bring Xuetao back immediately."

"Yes, sir! Does this matter also need to be told to General Duan"

The housemaid asked cautiously.

"No, we can't handle this sort of thing. It makes us look incompetent. We'll wait for Xuetao to come back. Once he knows who did it, we can retaliate."

Yes, sir!

Zhang the house manager immediately went to select staff to accompany the young master.

In Duan Dashuai's mansion, Duan Zongqing also received the news. Especially the second aunt's hands-on information was more detailed. They talked about Yunsiyu and Zhang Xetao's fate while having breakfast.

"It's quite a coincidence that she happened to run into him."

Duan Zongqing said calmly.

"Anyway, the people I sent to keep an eye on her think that Yun Siyu seems to know something. After leaving the Zheng family, she didn't go straight back to the hospital. She stayed at the Nanning port for an hour, as if waiting for someone."

Xia Xin was eating xiaolongbao and talking about the message she had received.

"I think it was her and Zhang Xuetao who had an appointment, the place was at Nanning Port. It's just that Zhang Xuetao was unlucky and got targeted."

Winter Qing finished the lotus seed soup and immediately replied.

In any case, Zhang Xuetao can't have an accident on my turf. I still need to ask about it.

Duanzongqing has a big appetite and is still eating steamed buns.

"Father, there's no need to worry. He'll be fine, he's just injured. As his soon-to-be wife, I definitely have to visit him. But if you send people to inquire right now, it makes us look like we're spying on Zhang Dashuai's temporary residence and will only raise suspicion."

Ripple wiped his lips and said.

"Okay, listen to the ripples. If they don't speak, we'll pretend we don't know. But those who dare to make trouble on my turf, I will never let them off."

After having breakfast, Duan Zongqing left the Marshal's Mansion and set out to gather people to investigate the assassins' identities.

Zhang Fenglin's subordinates, following the address given by Yun Siyu, successfully received their young master. After leaving some money for Zheng Wu, they quietly returned to their residence with Zhang Xuetuo.

Zhang Fenglin, seeing his son's somewhat haggard face, immediately arranged for a doctor to check his wounds. After the doctor confirmed that there was no serious problem and only needed rest, he finally felt relieved.

"Although Young Master Zhang was shot, the bullet was removed in time and the wound was treated. Anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing medicine was used, preventing infection. It's clear that a professional handled it."

"I just re-treated the wound, now it's all about taking good care of it, watching my diet, and eating some blood-tonifying and Qi-boosting herbal soups."

The doctor said to the two of them.

"Tao'er, you've met a noble person this time. In the future, when you go out, it's best to bring more people with you."

"Yes, Father, it was my carelessness that allowed myself to be tricked. Fortunately, I met a nurse friend of mine."

After the doctor left, Zhang Xuedao roughly recounted what had happened last night. Of course, he also emphasized Yun Siyu from the Church Hospital.

Zhang Fenglin listened to his son's words, his brow furrowed, then reminded:

Although she is your friend and saved you, you are about to be engaged to LianYi. At this crucial moment, there can't be any mistakes, do you understand what I meanldn't stand a chance. As long as he held them off, his daughter could run and call for help.Xing Laotou had a good plan, but as soon as he entered the room, Lian Yi slammed the door shut and punched t...
