Realizing that Su Wanwan would not wake up anytime soon, Qin Yuanfeng instructed two Ghost Guards to stand guard at her room door, then strode resolutely toward the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor. As the elevator slowly ascended, a raging sea of fury surged within him. If he had arrived even a little later today, he shuddered to think of the consequences.

His body trembled slightly from the pain, and his heart was filled with bitter regret, but it was far too late for remorse.
