Chapter 1132: Chapter 1132: Spin-off – The World of Live Streaming 101

Natasha’s expression was frozen, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses, until the nurse beside her gently reminded her: “If it’s inconvenient for you, or if you want to rest, you can refuse the meeting.”

Ada remembered what Bai Youwei had said, that Jason could very likely be the mastermind behind the scenes, but seeing Natasha’s current state, he worried that bringing up Yuri’s matter again would agitate her.

While Natasha was in a daze, Bai Youwei said, “Let’s meet.”

Her gaze came over.

Bai Youwei was also looking at her, calmly saying, “I can probably guess what he wants to talk to you about.”

…

Jason came alone.

Walking into the ward, he saw Bai Youwei, Shen Mo, and Ada, gave them a cold glance, and then said emotionlessly, “I’d like to have a word alone with Natasha.”

Ada scoffed coldly, his eyes filled with scorn.

“Fine,” Shen Mo said indifferently, “but try to keep it brief. She’s very weak right now.”

Jason: “It won’t take long.”

Shen Mo gave a slight nod and left the ward with Bai Youwei and Ada.

Outside the ward was a long corridor, they didn’t go far but found seats on some nearby chairs to rest.

Ada was uneasy: “What if he tries to harm Natasha?”

“He won’t,” Shen Mo shook his head gently, “A meticulous person wouldn’t be so foolish as to make a move in a hospital. There are cameras everywhere, guards on the ground floor. If something happens to Natasha, he won’t be able to escape either.”

Bai Youwei curled her lips and joked, “And besides, if anything happens to Natasha, the team leader would become Ada, which is absolutely not what he wants to see. So, Natasha is safe for now.”

“But that bomb earlier was meant for Natasha’s life!” Ada was anxious and kept looking towards the closed ward door, “That bastard, who knows what sort of nonsense he’s spinning now!”

He paced back and forth, took out a pack of cigarettes intending to smoke, but recalling the hospital’s no-smoking policy, stuffed it back in frustration.

“Or maybe…” Ada lowered his voice, “after he leaves, I’ll follow him, and the moment we get to a quiet place, I’ll…”

“Forget it,” Shen Mo interrupted his thoughts, “He won’t give you that chance.”

Ada was indignant: “I just can’t stand it! Yuri treated him like a brother, why on earth…”

Bai Youwei lowered her eyelids, “Natasha is even more upset than you. If it really comes down to that, I think you should let her do it.”

Ada fell silent at her words, and finally, both angry and helpless, he hung his head.

Indeed…

He had only been part of the team for a month and was so angry. Natasha’s feelings at this moment must be even more intense. If someone were to exact vengeance, it should be her…

He looked towards the ward, wondering: Would Natasha believe what Jason is saying?

Inside the ward at that moment, there was a long silence—

Jason didn’t hide his sorrow. He pulled up a chair, sat quietly at the edge of the ward, seemingly hesitating about how to start.

Neither of them spoke.

Not until Jason saw the wooden figurine by her pillow did his expression shift subtly, and he finally spoke: “That belongs to Yuri, doesn’t it… He always carried it with him as a treasure. Whenever he recalled something about his daughter, he would carve it once more, working on it on and off for two years. His craftsmanship really improved…”

Jason lamented as he examined the wooden figurine, “When I left the team, this figurine only had a head… If nothing had happened to him, he might have finished it and met his real daughter.”

Natasha felt a pang of grief and turned her face away, her eyes reddening.

“I had just seen Yuri, and then this happened to him. When I heard about it this morning, I simply couldn’t accept it.” Jason put the wooden figurine back and looked solemnly at Natasha on the bed, “This was definitely premeditated. The person who did this is not only familiar with your residence but also had a major conflict with you recently. Natasha, think carefully, do you have any suspects?”
