Emerging from the hospital, Cui Luan's brows were furrowed, his face a picture of irritation.
Cui Xian's recovery was not going well.
Her severe injuries were one thing, but her refusal to cooperate with treatment was another matter entirely.
Cui Xian had fallen into a deep pessimism, resenting the world and everyone in it. Whenever she was awake, she unleashed her temper, tormenting the family members who cared for her.
There was no denying it—the woman named Chi Yu was utterly ruthless.
She knew precisely how to destroy Cui Xian from the inside out, leaving no room for recovery.
As for Gu Shiyan, his hesitation was unexpectedly baffling.
For a mere outsider to hold such significance compared to the entire Gu family? It defied reason.
It was obvious, yet Gu Shiyan seemed to play dumb, refusing to yield even now.
Cui Luan decided it was time to contact the core Gu family members and apply pressure.
