Chapter 2186: Chapter 2187: Who Is the Person Behind You?

Union Hospital is located in the Dongcheng District of the capital, so Ye Xunhuan headed straight for Dongcheng District.

After arriving at Union Hospital in Dongcheng District, Ye Xunhuan parked the car and walked directly into the hospital.

Because Ye Xunhuan had made a call with Qin Muge earlier, Qin Muge was aware of Ye Xunhuan’s arrival and was rushing to Union Hospital, waiting at the entrance of the inpatient department for Ye Xunhuan!

Just as Ye Xunhuan arrived at the entrance of the inpatient department, he immediately saw Qin Muge.

Due to it being winter, Qin Muge was wearing a white long down jacket, but even so, her graceful figure could not be completely concealed, still giving a sense of elegance.

At the same time, Qin Muge stood quietly at the entrance of the inpatient department, like a plum blossom blooming in the depths of winter.

Ye Xunhuan saw Qin Muge, and naturally, Qin Muge saw Ye Xunhuan as well.

Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan, a slow smile appeared on Qin Muge’s slightly pale and weary face, and she then lifted her foot to walk towards Ye Xunhuan.

Moments later, Qin Muge was beside Ye Xunhuan: "How did you get here so fast?"

"Afraid something might happen to you!" Ye Xunhuan said with concern, looking at Qin Muge.

Hearing Ye Xunhuan’s concerned voice at her ear, and seeing worry in Ye Xunhuan’s eyes, Qin Muge felt a warmth in her heart.

"I’m fine!" Qin Muge said with a smile.

"You’ve lost a lot of weight, and you don’t look well."

"It’s okay!" Qin Muge said lightly: "Recently I’ve been a bit tired, just need some rest."

Ye Xunhuan nodded: "How is your father?"

The smile on Qin Muge’s face immediately froze, and a look of sadness appeared in her eyes.

With a slight sigh, Qin Muge slowly said: "You’ll know once you come with me."

With that, Qin Muge turned around and led Ye Xunhuan into the inpatient department.

Qin Muge, familiar with the path, led Ye Xunhuan into the ICU ward where Qin Fangbin was sitting.

In the ICU ward, Qin Fangbin lay motionless on the hospital bed, with the medical equipment beside him emitting a cold beeping sound, which was very harsh in this quiet ward.

Qin Fangbin on the hospital bed looked much thinner than when Ye Xunhuan had last seen him, and also much more haggard and aged.

Seeing Qin Fangbin like this, Ye Xunhuan was taken aback; he hadn’t thought that Qin Fangbin’s illness had become so severe.

No wonder Qin Muge hadn’t contacted Qiu Ruoxi in this period, with Qin Fangbin like this, how could she be in the mood to call anyone!

"What happened to him...?"

Qin Muge said bitterly: "He’s got half a life left."

At this moment, Qin Fangbin turned his head and set his gaze on Ye Xunhuan.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan, Qin Fangbin stretched out his hand.

Qin Muge approached Qin Fangbin and helped him sit up from the hospital bed.

"You’re here!" Qin Fangbin slowly squeezed out a smile on his gaunt face.

Ye Xunhuan nodded: "I didn’t expect that after our parting, meeting again today, you’ve come to this state!"

Sighing as he spoke, Ye Xunhuan couldn’t help but think that the saying ’illness comes like a landslide, and goes like unwinding silk’ was indeed true.

Qin Fangbin used to be so strong, but now this major illness has taken half his life.

"I didn’t expect it either!" Qin Fangbin said bitterly: "Muge, can you step out for a moment? I have a few words to say to him!"

Qin Muge did not immediately leave but looked directly at Ye Xunhuan.

Upon meeting Qin Muge’s gaze, Ye Xunhuan quickly said: "I’ll be fine here, you go get some rest!"

After pondering for a moment, Qin Muge nodded and left the ward.

After Qin Muge left, Ye Xunhuan said: "So it’s you who wanted to see me, quite surprising!"

"I didn’t want to see you, but I had to." Qin Fangbin said helplessly: "Let’s sit and talk."

Without hesitation, Ye Xunhuan sat beside him, looking at Qin Fangbin: "What do you want to discuss with me?"

"Wouldn’t you like to ask why I’ve ended up like this?"

"You were about to start explaining, weren’t you?" Ye Xunhuan said, staring at Qin Fangbin.

"Actually, I wasn’t planning to." Qin Fangbin shook his head.

Ye Xunhuan was speechless; if you weren’t planning to explain, then why ask.

However, Ye Xunhuan chose not to bicker with Qin Fangbin over it, considering Qin Fangbin’s frail condition made it difficult to hold any grudges.

"What do you want to discuss with me?"

Qin Fangbin didn’t explain why he was in such a state, so Ye Xunhuan didn’t press on it, instead directly asking why he sought him out.

"Ye Xunhuan, did the Monarch contact you?"

A look of undisguised surprise immediately appeared on Ye Xunhuan’s face.

Seeing the surprise on Ye Xunhuan’s face, Qin Fangbin internally confirmed the answer!

"It seems he has contacted you."

"How did you know?"

"He came to see me too." Qin Fangbin sighed deeply.

"What did he want with you?" Ye Xunhuan inquired, puzzled.

Though Qin Fangbin had some status in the capital, it didn’t seem enough to warrant attention from someone like the Monarch, and Ye Xunhuan definitely didn’t think the Monarch was asking Qin Fangbin to find Ye Fanchen.

"Aren’t you curious how I know about the Monarch?"

"You surely have your ways, but I’m more curious about what the Monarch wanted from you!"

Qin Fangbin pondered slightly: "Ye Xunhuan, you’re very smart, but the Monarch is no fool either, and his network is far more extensive than you can imagine!"

"All these years, I thought I was careful enough, but the moment the Monarch appeared, I realized I was wrong." A bitter smile appeared again on Qin Fangbin’s face: "The Monarch not only has an extensive network but is also very cunning; even if he knows certain things, he won’t expose them right away, but will patiently fish for bigger prey, and when you’re at the peak of your success, he’ll deliver a fatal blow, crushing all your ambitions!"

"Be careful with him, oppose him and either you break him first, or he toys with you until you’re finished."

"But I’m still curious about what the Monarch wanted from you, and what qualifies you to be approached by the Monarch."

"I don’t qualify, but the person behind me does." Qin Fangbin said matter-of-factly: "The Monarch wants to find the person behind me, where else would he go if not through me?"

"The person behind you?" Ye Xunhuan’s expression darkened slightly: "Who is this person behind you?"

Ye Xunhuan didn’t claim to fully understand Qin Fangbin or have much interaction with him, but within his heart, he wouldn’t have expected someone like the Monarch to value Qin Fangbin. Now, he realized he was wrong.

Qin Fangbin had someone formidable behind him; otherwise, he wouldn’t have drawn the Monarch’s attention!
