Inside the operating room, two grown men sat chatting in stark contrast to the anxious waiting outside.
Xu Siyu couldn't find a comfortable position on the couch. Rising and sitting alternately, stillness eluded her.
She was afraid.
Afraid that Diers would meet with misfortune. After finding out the reason why Diers wanted to break up and overcoming their misunderstandings, they were finally together. She was terrified of being separated from Diers because of a single bullet. The mere thought of attending Diers' funeral left Xu Siyu feeling hollowed by grief.
The man sitting across from Xu Siyu, Balk, watched her restless pacing.
Knowing that Xu Siyu was anxious, he attempted to comfort her: "Miss Xu, our leader will be fine."
If he wasn't mistaken, the bullet had just hit the shoulder and hadn't caused significant injury. There would likely be pain during recovery, but it wasn't a major concern.
"…"
Really?
But Diers looked so pale earlier.
