Chapter 2126: Chapter 2128: Settling Scores with the Scoundrel

Ye Shuilan opened her eyes, momentarily confused, with the sharp scent of disinfectant in her nose, startling her slightly.

Wasn’t she escaping on the mountain? Then what is this?

Ye Shuilan looked around, surrounded by white, with people wearing hospital gowns. The person in the neighboring bed glanced at her and then looked away; this was a hospital.

She looked down at herself, also dressed in a blue-and-white hospital gown, and Ye Shuilan was shocked, sitting up abruptly. Where were her clothes and belongings?

She had risked her life to obtain those.

Ye Shuilan’s face turned grim, without hesitation pulling out the needle from her hand, and stepped off the bed. However, after just two steps, she staggered, discovering a bandage wrapped around her twisted ankle, apparently treated.

She lifted her clothes to see bandages around her waist, a slight pain—had the bullet been removed?

"Hey, hey, you’re still receiving a blood transfusion, why did you pull it out?" A nurse came over, seeing Ye Shuilan had pulled it out, reprimanding her.

Unexpectedly, Ye Shuilan grabbed her shoulders sharply, her gaze fierce, asking, "Where are my things?"

"What things?"

"My clothes."

"In the cabinet!" The nurse pointed to the drawer beside her bed, "Quickly lie back down, I’ll help reinsert the needle, why don’t you listen."

Ignoring her rambling, Ye Shuilan turned, quickly walked over, and flung open the cabinet, finding her clothes neatly placed inside, just as before she lost consciousness.

She exhaled slightly, luckily.

She flipped through the clothes, finding her waist pouch folded inside, urgently opening it, her passport and such were there, but when she reached into the inner layer, her expression changed.

Where are the items?

Ye Shuilan’s face looked as if she’d swallowed a fly, sitting on the bed, turning the waist pouch inside out—nothing, there was nothing.

The items that were originally well-hidden, the ones she nearly exchanged her life for, had vanished into thin air.

Ye Shuilan was dumbfounded.

"What? Did something go missing? When you were sent here, this was all you had, nothing else," the nurse asked again, seeing her reaction.

Ye Shuilan looked over, sternly asking, "Who touched my belongings?"

"No one touched them... Oh, there was a man who brought you here, he handled your paperwork, discovered your passport, and nothing else." The nurse replied.

A man?

Ye Shuilan slightly closed her eyes, envisioning a man—the one she encountered after tumbling down the mountain, but before fainting, he had driven away.

But whether he returned, it was uncertain.

"Where did that man go?" She promptly asked the nurse.

"I don’t know, he handled your paperwork, gave your belongings to us, then left," the nurse said.

"Did he say his name?" Ye Shuilan asked again.

The nurse shook her head.

"Fuck!" Ye Shuilan cursed angrily, "Damn it!"

She grabbed her hair, spun around twice, closed her eyes tightly again—the man, the car, Land Rover, license plate was...

Ye Shuilan suddenly opened her eyes, fierceness gleaming in her eyes, turned, grabbed her clothes, and left.

"Hey, miss, you’re losing too much blood, you can’t just walk around—hey, hey, where are you going..."

To hell with the transfusion, as long as she didn’t die, it was fine, but she had something more important to do, she had to find that thief who took other people’s stuff and get her things back!
