Chapter 49: Another Cup?
After Xiao Yun saw Zheng Xi Shi at the cafe and collapse, Andy, Xue Xiu Yong, Nie An, and Zhi Ling Ling rest Xiao Yun's unconscious body gently on the chair.
Andy calls her name in panic," X-Xiao Yun! Xiao Yun! Hey! What's happened? " He immediately checks her breathing and pulse and turns his face to the other three people, asking for an explanation.
Nie An shutters, " I-I don't know. " Of course they don't know, Xiao Yun who looked perfectly fine just now, in a flash of light suddenly faints. ' How could it be? ' She thought, ' It was as if she had just seen a fierce ghost aiming for her life? '
Andy's panic starts to eases after a few small checkups. Xiu Yong was still in a doubt and mumble softly, " Maybe..."
Andy heard what he said and anxiously asks him, " Maybe? "
Xiu Yong doesn't know who he is and usually, he would never answer a stranger with a face mask that covers half of his face like this; but perhaps because he was still in shock he answers. " There was a foreign man just now, he came in looking for something...or maybe someone and left. "
Andy, " Then? "
Xiu Yong unsurely answered, " I don't know but after that man glared at us as if we rob him and all of the sudden, Xiao Yun fainted... It seems that she was frightened of him, her face also suddenly turn pale because she saw him. "
Andy silently thought, "..."
Nie An observes Xiu Yong's words for a while, " She also said something-"
Andy lifts his brows and repeated, " Something? "
She continues, "Zheng Xi Shi. "
Andy lifts his brow and attentively examine the pieces of information that he got. ' A man, foreign? Zheng Xi Shi? Perhaps a word that she mumbles randomly? or a name?...-'
While he was still in deep thought, Xiu Yong who had been curiously looking at him finally ask him with his cocky tone, " Old man, who are you? "
Andy's eyes starts to twitch at the word ' Old man ', with a still pleasing to look angry smile he answers, " Hey, didn't your parents teach you this? Name yourself before you ask other's."
Xiu Yong felt a sudden tension from the man, he couldn't understand why, but the man felt absurdly pressuring. His wild-instinct warning him, ' This man is dangerous'. But neither he nor Andy has any intention to stand back.
Nie An quickly spot the tension between them and close Xiu Yong's mouth with her palm. She knew that Xiu Yong was about to blurt out harsh words again and if this goes on, they'll fight right in front of a faint person.
She also couldn't see the man's face except for his eyes, but from how he worriedly asks for Xiao Yun; She felt a sense of trust in him.
Nie An, " Sorry, he...He is just worried about Xiao Yun, I'm Nie An, this is Xue Xiu Yong and she is Zhi Ling Ling. We're Xiao Yun's classmates. " Nie An narrowed her eyes and suspiciously stares at him, "Who are you and what's your relation with Xiao Yun?"
Andy glances sideways from the corner of his eyes at Xiu Yong and observe the group, ' Xue Xiu Yong? Only son of that Xue family, huh... There's also Zhi Ling Ling from Zhi family too, but the other one...She said, Her name is Nie An?-I Never heard of that surname... '
He pulls down his mask and greets them back, " I'm Andy, nice to meet you. I'm Xiao Yun's childhood friend and sort of...like a brother to her also her private doctor... Anyway, it would be bad for Xiao Yun to rest in a small chair like this..."
Hearing the word 'Doctor' Nie And eyes brighten from worries, "Doctor? So how is Xiao Yun, right now? Is she alright?"
Andy look toward Nie An and smiled to assure her, "Lack of sleep, in fact right now she's sleeping-" but...Andy glance toward Xiao Yun thinking to himself, 'It's not only lack of sleep but also...Her sudden loss of consciousness also shows symptoms from surprised or frightened...What did she saw that made her shock until losing consciousness?...'
In the middle of his sentence, Andy took his phone and tap at the screen before he raises it next to his ears.
After a long of sounds of 'dduu' a cold voice that felt as if it could freeze the person on the other side of the phone answer.
Andy, " Hey? Wang Li Lei? You know that I can't see your expression, right? So I can't possibly talk to you if you don't say anything. "
Li Lei apathetically answers, " What."
Andy could feel the knit on his brows tighten, but he had something more important than paying attention to Li Lei's cold behavior. " Xiao Yun, she is unconscious. "
' Crack'
Some sound of a shattering came after ' crack ', ' Did that man break another cup with his bare hand? Ugh, that monster. ' Andy thought.
Li Lei's lips quivers, his face steadily grew darker. " Where is she? "
Andy sense the trembling voice of Li Lei, his brow lifts and began to doubt what he heard. ' Is he anxious? Or...was it my imagination? His voice sounded...trembling like a leaf...'
Li Lei repeated, " Where is she?! " This time his tone sounded colder, showing no trace of his previous trembles.
Andy could feel his body shivering only from Li Lei's icy voice, " Didn't you send someone to guard he-... I mean, I'll send you the location. "
