Chapter 381 -381 How Can It Be?
An Zhiyuan was unhappy, and everyone under him knew that the team leader was unhappy.
His team members, under his icy gaze, were utterly despondent.
They didn’t understand, if even his fiancee couldn’t make the team leader happy, had the two of them had a fight?
Impossible! Dr. Bai was so busy yesterday that she hardly had time to speak, let alone fight.
Moreover, Dr. Bai didn’t look like someone who would quarrel. She was gentle in appearance, amiable in manner, and exceedingly patient—how could she quarrel with the team leader?
All the team members who had been treated by Dr. Bai would not believe that she had argued with the team leader unless it was the team leader who lost his temper.
This time, everyone was one-sidedly in support of Dr. Bai, placing their Team Leader An squarely in the camp of those who were being unreasonable.
An Zhiyuan was almost at a loss for words.
He couldn’t trust Wei Shufen to operate in such an unconventional manner. Every time Bai Xiao went to work amid a hail of bullets, it meant she was risking her life—and this was all because of Wei Shufen’s selfishness.
This time, Wei Shufen crossed his bottom line.
And now was not the time to do anything. The friction this year had been quite severe; they needed to consider what came next! Not personal relations.
Wei Shufen had always thought An Zhiyuan was a cool, self-controlled, and mild-mannered man—but she was gravely mistaken.
Politeness and self-restraint still existed, and his green uniform remained as immaculate as ever, but there was not a trace of joy in his deep voice or in those eyes as dark as ink.
They were flashing with rage, emitting a cold gleam like a blade under the moonlight. If Wei Shufen were here, she would be able to smell the ominous danger surrounding her. Her impression of this stepson was far from the truth; he was not some gentle, easygoing man, but someone not to be trifled with.
An Zhiyuan had never felt death was so within reach; his cold, piercing gaze seemed to devour everything alive.
His most beloved facing death, he was not only unable to protect her but also needed her to protect himself—a thought that could torment him at any given moment.
This man’s fierce and ruthless nature was stirring beneath his controlled facade. She would pay a hellish price for this time’s incident.
…
Standing in front of the desk in the study, Wei Shufen looked up at An Cheng, her eyes now showing obvious panic, “How could this happen? Old An, why did Ayuan go there? Ayuan is your most outstanding son; how could he do this to you? Didn’t they consider your feelings at all? The situation there is not good at all right now, with constant friction and battles sparked by conflicts. Defending the country is a good thing, but there’s no need for it to specifically be Ayuan and his team; their unit in the far north has nothing to do with that place—it’s like they’re trying to stab you in the heart.” She couldn’t believe it; how could her own arrangement have this kind of oversight.
Despite all her calculations and conniving, using various excuses to finally send that Dr. Bai to the front line, her intent was simple: Dr. Bai would either submit or die. After this matter, she would have no reason to even remember such a person.
But now that An Zhiyuan had gone there, they would be greeted by a storm, and An Zhiyuan had the most promising future! If something happened to An Cheng’s son, the An Family would be in chaos. She couldn’t imagine the fatal blow that An Zhiyuan could bring to the An Family.
