In the hospital ward, Feng Qinglin turned off the news that was appearing on the Internet and asked Xie Yang who was looking at the menu. “Will Tao Yang really come?”

“He will.” Xie Yang turned the menu over. “Tao Yang is the last person in the world who wants Qiu Xing to get better. Now he has an opportunity to prevent his recovery. This is likely to be the last and only opportunity and it is a huge temptation. Even if he knows that it is likely a trap, he can’t help coming over to confirm the truth.”

“If he doesn’t come or sends someone else…”

“It is possible but the chances are very low. He has lost too many cards now. He is in a state where he can’t run away or hide for long. He has paid almost everything for the perfection of his ‘artwork’ that is Qiu Xing. This is related to whether the ‘artwork’ will lose its last chance of being ‘artistic’. He won’t fake it.”

Feng Qinglin frowned when he heard it. He looked at Qiu Xing who was talking to Wu Shui at the door of the ward and shook his head. “I always feel unsure.”

“Speaking of something that will make you more uncertain, Tao Yang is probably already hiding in the hospital.”

Feng Qinglin’s voice instantly rose. “What?”

Xie Yang waved his hand. “Be steady. Don’t worry, even if he is already here, he won’t act blindly. He will move at the best and most stable time, which is when your uncle is undergoing surgery.”

Feng Qinglin found it hard to calm down. “Uncle, aren’t you afraid?”

“What should I be afraid of? This was specially arranged by your uncle. Previously, your uncle checked the community, Rongding and Yang Xing. Why didn’t he check here? The harder we guard something, the deeper Tao Yang will hide. We must leave some flaws for him to emerge. Don’t worry, nothing will happen.” Xie Yang picked several dishes on the menu and handed it to Feng Qinglin. “Pick what you like to eat. Don’t say that your uncle and I are abusing you. I’ll make it clear in advance that your uncle and I are having hotpot for the New Year’s Eve dinner. If you don’t like hot pot then you can order a few other dishes.”

Feng Qinglin looked at Xie Yang’s calm expression in front of him but still couldn’t maintain his calm. “You are certain nothing will happen?”

Xie Yang raised his eyebrow. “Do you not believe me or do you not believe your uncle and the police?”

“……” He couldn’t believe it.

Feng Qinglin reached out and took the menu to choose dishes.

“Don’t choose things that your uncle can only see but not eat.”

Feng Qinglin silently moved away from the spicy grilled lamb chops he was going to order and picked the warm and nourishing mutton soup.

The 26th, 27th and 28th of the last month of the year passed calmly. As the new year was approaching, the number of paparazzi waiting at the entrance of the hospital decreased and the hospital was gradually deserted. Finally, it was the 29th and the rumored day of Qiu Xing’s surgery.

Wu Shui led the bodyguards to surround the building where the operation would take place and the building was also emptied. Everyone was removed except for the doctors and nurses necessary for the ‘operation’. Outside this building, hospital security and police officers dressed in plain clothes scattered and patrolled intensively.

It was a full set of acting. At 8 a.m., Qiu Xing put on a hospital gown and was rushed into the operating room by Dr Kirkman.

Xie Yang sat on the corridor bench outside the operating room and closed his eyes while leaning against the wall. He slowly spread out his ability to cover the entire hospital. He could locate each person in the network according to the degree of purification. This method could only vaguely locate everyone’s movements and consumed a lot of energy, but it was better than nothing.
