Chapter 5

Gabriel shook his hand with the bearing of a queen who was far above Shang Ke. "I've waited a long time for this day to arrive. I will return all of the anger you caused me today."

After slapping the other once, he felt that his entire person had been refreshed, as though he had completed a great project.

Shang Ke just coldly glared at him.
Gabriel calmly fiddled with his collar, his fingers quietly closing the interference device in his collar. Immediately after, he stooped down to pull up Shang Ke's blanket, and said with a gentle tone, "You look really tired, so make sure to rest well. I will come and visit you again. It's just that...the next time will be bidding you farewell, and you might already be in the cemetery." His last words were very soft, to the point that he was almost sticking to Shang Ke's ear as he said it.

With that said, he took a step back and revealed a cheerful smile with his back facing the monitor, before turning and leaving.

That lowly person's satisfied appearance really made one wish that they could kick him twice.

The original Cage was a bit arrogant and willful, and didn't treat Gabriel very well, but it was not necessary for Gabriel to stick a knife in him when he was about to die, right? How great must his hate have been? Furthermore, Cage's father was his benefactor and foster father. He shouldn't bite the hand that fed him so easily.

Shang Ke stared at the ceiling, deep in thought. He was thinking about how to give that Gabriel a lesson with his hands unable to move and his mouth unable to speak. As he kept thinking, his eyes became bleary. Oh, so sleepy, let's sleep first...

When Ravel entered the sickroom, the boy on the bed was fast asleep. His soft hair was stuck to his forehead with the ends slightly sticking up, causing him to appear somewhat languid. The sunset out the window passed, leaving a faint blush on his thin face.

Ravel quietly walked to his side, reaching out to brush away the hair drooping over his eyes. Suddenly, his movement stopped as his line of sight fell to the corner of Cage's eyes. There was a shallow scratch. If one wasn't careful and mindful, it was very easy to overlook.

He accompanied Cage everyday, so he was completely clear on what injuries the other carried. This scratch did not exist a few hours ago.

The doctors and nurses that took care of Cage were carefully selected, and nothing sharp would be carried on them at all costs. Normally, the nurses also wore sterilized gloves, and worked very carefully. Let alone injuring him with a scratch, they wouldn't even knock or bump into him.

Ravel fell silent for a moment, before leaving the room and asking the guard, "Did someone visit Cage today?"

The guard replied, "Young Master Gabriel came before, but he left two hours ago."

"General, what happened?" Kahn saw that Ravel's expression was off and quickly walked up to ask.

Ravel's eyes were gloomy as he said, "I'm going to the monitor room."

The two went to the monitor room, with the doctor in charge of taking care of Cage also following them.

When the monitor room's security guard saw them, he immediately stood up to salute them.

Ravel waved his hand and ordered him, "Change the monitor to show two hours ago."

The security man immediately did as he was told.

The monitor's scene quickly reversed, stopping at the scene where Gabriel showed up.

Ravel watched as Gabriel walked into the sickroom, before standing at the other's bedside for a while. Following that, he bent down to help him fix his blanket, saying "I will come see you again" before leaving. There was nothing wrong with the entire event.
