Chapter 554: Can We Even Sleep in the Same Bed?

He's about your size, so you should be able to fit in it."“I’d rather freeze to death than wear his clothes!” Xiang Yu refused, baring his chest and turning to Zhao Yu. He replied with a mix of irrita...The ward was littered with debris.

Feng Mu stood on the balcony, opened the window, and nervously smoked a cigarette. Meng Lan curled up on the sofa like a baby, the atmosphere was exceptionally oppressive.

Sniffing the pungent smoke, Meng Lan's brows furrowed instinctively, and she reminded in a low voice, "My brother hasn't been in the hospital for a long time, right Why did he bring him back to the Feng family without my permission"

Feng Mu's eyes darkened. He hadn't expected her to find out so quickly, but for him, it was just a pawn being revealed ahead of schedule. "So what Don't forget Meng Lan, you once bribed a doctor to sneak into the hospital to see Liu Liang. Your intentions are sinister!"

“At that time, I just wanted to see how Liangliang was doing. I didn’t really intend to take him away.” Menglan excitedly got up from the sofa and walked to Feng Mu’s face, “Liangliang has a congenital heart disease, he can’t stand any bumps at all, you bringing him out of the hospital now is tantamount to killing him!”

Feng Mu turned his head to look at her, half-closing his eyes, and slowly exhaled a wisp of smoke. "Menglan, you're really not well-behaved. You've forgotten your identity again. Wanting to save your brother isn't about shouting."

Smoke billowed over Menglan's delicate yet bloodless face. She trembled, clutching her fists tightly, her brother's worry almost consuming her whole, making it hard for her to breathe.

Her father passed away, her mother was sentenced to life imprisonment, and her brother is her only remaining relative!

"How can you possibly let my brother go" She struggled to keep her voice steady, but there was still a tremor of panic in it. "Feng Mu, we agreed before, if you had any grievances, you would take them out on me, not touch my brother."

“But you’re not obedient.” Feng Mu raised his hand, tightly gripping her neck. His eyes were cold as he looked at her, her face flushed red from the lack of breath. “Who allowed you to be so close to Han Cheng If I hadn't come, wouldn't you have even gone to bed with him”

Meng Lan was lifted up on her toes by his grip, greedily gasping for breath. She stared intently at Feng Mu, unwilling to utter a word of pleading.

"What are you capable of to act so arrogantly in front of me You want to save your brother, then apologize to me. Whatever, you're just such a wretch!" Feng Mu increased his volume, frowning deeply, a hint of irritability surging in his heart.

After a long silence, Meng Lan remained silent. Her usually alluring phoenix eyes were now fixed on Feng Mu with a hint of resentment.

Perhaps it was the complete coldness that made her unwilling to even have the most basic argument. Feng Mu, I hope you can kill me, otherwise sooner or later there will be a day when I will return all this hurt to you!

Being stared at like that, Feng Mu's chest felt as if it were stuffed with a sponge. Perhaps because he was used to seeing this woman's coquettish demeanor in front of him, now seeing the hatred in her eyes, he felt a chilling fear.

Although Meng Lan didn't say a word, Feng Mu felt it was more piercing than any insult. Damn it, when did Meng Lan become so important to him

"Want to die Not that easy." Feng Mu loosened his grip on Meng Lan's neck, watching her struggle for breath, and let out a cold laugh, "Liu Xinrui, you have to live well."

Live and see the beauty of all things in this world, the warmth of human nature, but none of it...concerns you!

Meng Lan was shoved heavily onto the sofa. He touched his neck, which was bruised from being pinched, and gasped for breath, his body limp like mud!

Feng Mu still held that arrogant demeanor, raising his hand to slowly button his shirt, without sparing her a glance before turning away.

He called several bodyguards to block the door of the ward. Besides doctors and the servants he sent to take care of him, no one was allowed to visit. Han Cheng and Zhao Yi were blocked at the door by Meng Lan when they tried to argue with Feng Mu.

She knew best that once Feng Mu made a decision, no one could interfere with his principles. If anyone really dared to meddle and provoke him, no one would end well. Meng Lan didn't want to implicate others because of her own affairs.

But ironically, Menglan felt like she was now just like Feng Mu, a dog locked in a cage. She was only taken out to be petted when needed, and otherwise, her life's freedom was restricted.

Meng Lan was clearly a living person, yet during these days in the hospital, she seemed to have become a puppet, manipulated by others. She had no joy, anger, or desire. If not for the beating heart she could feel under her touch, she might even think she was dead.

After a week in the hospital, Mima from Meng Hui's place walked into the ward with a fruit basket, twisting her waist like a water snake. Seeing Meng Lan lying in bed with an IV drip, she walked forward with concern, "Aiyo, Sister Lan, how did you get so sick"

"Well, is something the matter" Menglan's tone was cold. Seeing that she hadn't been stopped by the bodyguards like other visitors, she knew this was Feng Mu who had arranged for her to come over.

It's understandable though. MiMi was also introduced to Meng Hui by Feng Mu at first. Even though MiMi is pretty and helped earn money, she knew that Feng Mu had placed MiMi here to keep an eye on her!ked at the monitor, a satisfied expression in her eyes. "The small surveillance device my brother gave me is really useful. Even if it's hidden in a flower pot, no one would notice it.""Xia Yichan par...
