Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1194: Nie Jiuque Learns of Wen Xiao’ai’s Wedding

And beneath this tenderness, there is an unshakable determination hidden.

Xiaoguai, wait for me.

Second People’s Hospital—

"Will he go to Holy City to find Miss Wen?"

"Even if the third young master is going to find Miss Wen, there’s no need to say such frightening things. He makes it sound like... he’s leaving never to return." Bai Yi looked anxious and worried.

The drunkard, who had been soulless for several hours, had a glimmer in his hollow eyes upon hearing the words "Miss Wen" and "Holy City."

Only Qing Yi and Bai Yi didn’t notice.

"Qing Yi, what should we do? I’m worried the third young master is thinking irrationally."

"Go check the third young master’s whereabouts. If he’s headed to Holy City, send a few skilled people to follow him secretly."

"Will the third young master be angry?"

"That’s a lesser concern. Safety first. If Wells’s minions find a chance, the consequences would be unimaginable." After Wells escaped from prison, he chose this extreme revenge path, willing to die together. He probably thought the third young master was in his car at the time, but only he was there.

"We also need to watch out for the Baiming Sect people." Qing Yi hadn’t forgotten the eerie crow incident.

"Fine, why don’t I just contact Hong Yi directly."

"Alright, for now don’t let word get out about the third young master’s departure. Announce to the company that he’s on a business trip."

"Understood, I’m off then."

"Wait...do you have any sugar on you?" Qing Yi’s expression was slightly awkward.

"Sugar?" Bai Yi was startled.

"I do actually."

He then pulled out two hard candies from his pocket and placed them in Qing Yi’s hand.

Seeing Qing Yi smile, he thought Qing Yi was laughing at him for carrying candy at his age, so he added, "I’ve been running back and forth between hospitals for you and the third young master, and it’s given me a bit of low blood sugar."

"Got it."

After Bai Yi left, Qing Yi carried the candies to the bedside.

He unwrapped one and held it to the drunkard’s mouth, whispering, "Have a candy, it’ll sweeten your heart."

He expected the drunkard to respond as before, with no reaction, but unexpectedly, he lifted his heavy eyelids and looked at him.

Then he moved his pale lips and in a hoarse voice said, "...Brother, you say when people die their souls are taken by the Netherworld, but if a soul fragment is lost, does it... really disappear?"

"What..."

Qing Yi met the drunkard’s unreadable gaze, not quite understanding his strange words.

"...Did you watch ghost stories like Bai Yi and pick up these Netherworld words?" Qing Yi assumed the drunkard was joking, so he replied with a laugh.

Unexpectedly, the drunkard furrowed his brow, his eyes making his feelings even more unfathomable.

Qing Yi suddenly thought of something, so he quickly corrected himself: "Don’t people say that after death, souls go to heaven?"

Is Xiaohan asking this because of that person called Xige?

So, is it that the person called Xige is gone?

Upon hearing Qing Yi’s words, the drunkard’s expression relaxed slightly, but he lowered his gaze, concealing his emotions, lost in thoughts...

——

In the dim secret chamber

Nie Jiuque was, as usual, using his spiritual power to nurture Gu Sheng’s primordial spirit.

A completely black Blood Crow suddenly appeared out of nowhere, standing on the not-too-big table.

It was not Ye Yin.

"Wah wah..."

The Blood Crow seemed to be reporting something to Nie Jiuque, and hearing it, Nie Jiuque’s breath was disrupted.

He quickly withdrew his hand and frowned, asking, "What did you say? The Cat Demon Princess’s wedding in three days?!"
