Chapter 55: Beast’s Territory Touched
“This… this is the room?” Su Yanyun looked at the room that was completely different from the other rooms and was almost speechless.
Aunt Chen wanted to explain, but seemed unable to do so. She stayed silent.
Su Yanyun stepped into the room, stepping onto the injection molding floor which made a crisp sound different from the wooden floor outside.
Aunt Chen turned on the light above her head.
It was a simple ceiling fluorescent lamp completely different from those luxurious lamps in the entire house.
Su Yanyun could see more clearly why the decoration of the entire room was different—just by the moonlight, she had not seen it wrongly.
This was really arranged to be a ward!
There was a small hospital bed in the middle of the room. The bed was covered with pink sheets and it was clean and tidy, but it had been a little over-washed.
The wall at the bedside was obviously some years old. The wall wasn’t decorated with famous paintings, but the bells, oxygen masks and power plugs that were only found in hospitals…
And on the wall at the bottom of the bed were also many weird images drawn with a little dagger.
Su Yanyun stared at those paintings.
All the paintings looked abstract, but also seemed to have some sort of rule to it. Based on the style, it seemed the same as the symbol on the door.
When she saw the symbol on the door just now, she had felt like it was so familiar.
Now that she was looking at the scratches on the wall, she felt as if those paintings were alive and turning in her eyes. It felt like a code bringing a story, trying to describe something to her desperately…
“Ms. Su… Madam Yi.” Aunt Chen saw how dazed Su Yanyun was and warned her with a sigh. “You have already seen that this is a ward and isn’t suitable for residing in. See…”
Before Aunt Chen finished speaking, Su Yanyun had already walked to the bed.
She bent down and touched the pink bedsheets.
Aunt Chen’s expression suddenly changed drastically.
“Madam Yi, you can’t do that!” She took two steps forward and grabbed Su Yanyun’s hand and said in a lowered voice, “The things here were all arranged by Young Master. He even swept the floors here personally. Nobody is allowed to touch anything here.”
Su Yanyun never imaged that the things here were so important.
She wanted to ask why but changed her question in the end. “If I wanted to stay here, would Hubby reject me?”
Aunt Chen smiled bitterly. “Madam Yi, this room isn’t for residing in. You have also seen how old-fashioned the things here are. The wall next to you was when Young Master demolished the nursing home ward and moved it here. This is just…”
Before Aunt Chen’s words were finished, Rong Linyi’s cold voice sounded through the room.
“Aunt Chen, how come you have the key to this room?”
Aunt Chen’s hands trembled. The large bunch of keys in her hand fell to the ground with a bang.
Su Yanyun quickly picked it up for her. She saw Aunt Chen’s pale complexion and Rong Linyi’s somber face.
“Hubby, don’t blame Aunt Chen…” she hurriedly explained. “I wanted to…”
“Get out.” Rong Linyi’s voice was cold and calm, but under the calm waves was dark magma.
He was like a beast whose territory had been touched, a dragon guarding a treasure whose slumber had been disturbed by outsiders. His anger and murderous intentions radiated off him.
