Marriage Rights: Billionaire's Forgotten Wife

Chapter 139 - Even if it was a joke

After that phone call, it did not even take three hours for Yu Qiao to arrive at the hospital, and he intended to make his presence known. With his expression alone, Piore could tell that Yu Qiao was aware of what he had said to Rita over the phone. This was also the exact reason why Yu Qiao probably dropped everything just to go to City S.

'Oh? Someone looks like ready for a fight. If he did not plan to, then he is just one weak, useless man.' Piore thoughts as he glanced at the man walking toward his direction that clearly does not come in peace. Of course, Piore finds it more entertaining than scary.

It was not only Piore who look forward to what Yu Qiao was about to but even the other people inside the hospital. They seemed to have felt that something will happen as they looked at Yu Qiao who stormed through the hospital hallway with a face ready for murder.

Following behind, Yu Qiao was Rita with displeased expression and Angelo, who has his face still void with any expression like he did not care about anything.

At this time Mo Lihua was already transferred to a different room so that they can help hook her up with the necessary machines and have the toxins and her body removed. The doctors let her sleep to lessen her discomfort. 

Francesca was 'kind' enough to leave with police to go back to the building they were at earlier so they could properly investigate. 

He would decide if Francesca was an enemy or not when the police returned to speak with Mo Lihua.

"Wow! It took you so-" 

Pang!

Piore was still supposed to greet Yu Qiao with a taunt, however before he could even continue the man's fist already landed on Piore's face.

Not only was he surprised that Yu Qiao had the guts to really punch him in public and inside the hospital, but Piore was also surprised that it was strong enough to almost got dizzy and lose consciousness. 

Good thing, Piore was able to retain his balance though or would be really embarrassing to get knocked out after that one hit.

"Fvck you!" Yu Qiao glared with contempt. In all honesty, he really wanted to land some more hit at Piore's face, but Angelo already grabbed his shoulder to halt him for any movement.

How could Piore threaten him regarding Mo Lihua like that? Even if it was a joke, it was still not acceptable!

"Young Master, that is enough. You are already here, no need to worry." Angelo held Yu Qiao's shoulders tightly to stop him from jumping towards Piore. "Sorry, everyone. Please go back to your own businesses." Angelo declared earnestly, especially for those that moved closer to check what was going on.

Angelo could also not let the hospital security kick them out. He gave a quick glance at Rita and see that the maid also had a murderous expression on her face. Angelo shook his head and watched the people who were bothered by them go back to their own businesses.

"Kids, let us all behave. How was the young miss?" Angelo asked Piore.

"They were trying to cure her. It is not life-threatening, just act like it was food poisoning." Piore said dismissively. It was the best description of what happened. Sadly, he knew that the hospital could just do as much. The rest of the cure would be up to Yu Qiao.

"Are you athletic?" Piore asked Yu Qiao suddenly. He could punch but, what about the stamina. 'This is so bothersome. I do not want to know more details regarding his performance in bed, but he should last more than five rounds, right?'

"What does that have to do with you? What really happened? Tell me." Yu Qiao suddenly demanded with a glare.

Piore released a deep breath for patience before speaking, "You want to know what happened? Mo Lihua was wounded by knives with aphrodisiac." He said softly. 

When Francesca threatened them earlier, Piore already realized that keeping secrets to Yu Qiao would not benefit anyone. They need all the help they could get and also make sure that they were all cooperating to keep everyone alive. 

At that time, Piore also personally vowed that the Fei Yan should learn everything as well. That alone, makes him so nervous. 'Ah, I needed that punch.' He thought to himself as he held his cheek. 

Yu Qiao was Mo Lihua's most significant weakness right now. If you want to keep your enemies close, then that also goes with your loved ones.

"How? Who? Was it the people who abducted her father? Would she be alright?" Yu Qiao asked as he sits tiredly on the available chair in front of Mo Lihua's hospital room. It was not even a week ago when was the one that was laying on a hospital bed, now, it was Mo Lihua.

He could also not believe what he was hearing. For him, it would be impossible for Mo Lihua to be involved with any attacks, let alone be affected by an aphrodisiac. 

What would happen if she was not saved at the right time? 

Yu Qiao refused to imagine the worst-case scenario. However, it still broke his heart that he was not there to protect her. 

 "How? That would be a long story. Who? It would be embarrassing to that here. Wait for her to talk to you about that. Just worry about helping her later. The doctors may assume that she was completely healed, but who knows, she may still need help from her husband later." Piore said. 

Then he added, while looking at Angelo, "I just need to take care of something. Take over from here until we got back." Piore spoke matter-of-factly. He then motioned for Rita to follow him. 

Rita shook her head in refusal to go with Piore. She wanted to wait for Mo Lihua to wake up before leaving. 

"Let's go. We need to take care of the place where they would stay later to rest." Piore spoke in annoyance, and with Angelo glance, Rita has no choice but to follow along.
