Kiss Me Goodnight, Mrs. CEO! - Chapter 168

Chapter 168: Shi Nuannuan’s Panic

Because of his duty, he had to stay here even if he was heavily injured. He did not have time to rest and recover, and now he had to receive his punishment. He would be more dead than alive after these twenty whips!

Shi Nuannuan, on the other hand, was filled with worry too, but for what reason, she did not know.

He was already heavily injured. To protect Shi Residence and her brother, he was determined to perform his duty and guard the post. Yet, Grandfather did not sympathize him. Instead, he wanted to punish him!

Upon thinking about this, Shi Nuannuan spoke up.

“Wait!” She stopped Xiang Yi who was about to leave and turned her head toward Shi Le. “Grandpa! Xiang Yi was injured because he was protecting Brother! Even if he was careless and Brother got injured, can’t you punish him after he has recovered?!”

“So what? When he stepped foot into our family, he had already used his life to sign a contract. Dead or alive, their only use is to block the bullets from reaching their master!”

“Granpa! If Xiang Yi died, who will protect Brother?!” Shi Nuannuan was extremely anxious, but she did not know where did her anxiety stem from.

However, Shi Le still looked cold and unbothered toward his granddaughter’s words. “I said what I said. If he died, that means he doesn’t deserve to stay at your brother’s side!”

“But…”

“Miss.”

She still wanted to defend Xiang Yi but was stopped by the man himself.

He looked at her and shook his head with a gentle smile, telling her not to say anything else.

Looking at his figure, Shi Nuannuan clenched her fists, her heart was never this uneasy before.

When his figure disappeared at the door, Shi Nuannuan turned her head in displeasure and glared at Shi Le. “Grandpa, if Xiang Yi dies, I won’t forgive you!”

Her sudden rage stunned Shi Le. He squinted. “What do you mean by that?”

Shi Nuannuan was also surprised by her own words.

What was happening to her?

How could she say these things?

“I…” She wanted to explain herself but she could not say anything.

Why did she turn against her grandfather for Xiang Yi?

“Anyway… I… I just don’t like the fact that you would punish someone who is injured!”

She said and turned her head away as if she was hiding the panic in her heart. She then walked passed Shi Le and Tangteng Li to pull away Zuo Weiyi, who was frozen in place.

No matter what, she should get rid of Weiyi first.

At this moment, her grandfather was worried about her brother, so he would not pay attention to Weiyi.

She was thinking of a plan to hide Weiyi in a secluded place.

Looking at the two figures that walked out, Shi Le’s face darkened but he did not say anything. He only turned around and looked at the unconscious Shi Yuting.

Looking at her son on the bed, Shen Lanzhi could not control her tears anymore. The clear liquid dribbled down her cheeks.

He had never been injured this heavily before when he was growing up, so who was it who wanted him dead?!

“Yuting…” Shen Lanzhi stood by the bed and sobbed. Her chest felt hollowed out, the pain spreading through her whole body.

“Tiannan.” Staring at his golden grandson, Shi Le was filled with distress.

However, he was bad at expressing his feelings. He kept everything in his heart and revealed nothing in his expression.

“Grandfather.” Shi Tiannan stepped in front.

“I’ll hand over this case to you. You have to find out who the culprit is!”

Upon hearing that, Shi Tiannan slightly lifted his gaze to Shi Le’s heavy expression and nodded. “Yes.”
