The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1719

Mango came to the military hospital with the help of Nathaniel.

She thought that Zion was seriously injured, so she ran to the door of the operating room as soon as possible. However, she was told that there was no operation today.

Seeing Mango's nervous look, Nathaniel immediately asked someone to check on Zion's ward number. Then, he walked over with Mango.

Over the past 15 years, Mango would spend some time with Zion. Zion seemed well and was always in high spirits. But at this moment, her nose twitched and she almost cried out.

Zion, who was already more than 20 years old, had inherited Nathaniel's handsome appearance and resolute look. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall, standing in front of the window and looking outside. No one could tell where he was injured, but it made people teary.

"Zion, what happened? Let me have a look."

Mango walked up to him and pulled her over.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly waved her hand in front of him.

"Zion, say something. Don't scare me! Zion!"

Nathaniel saw Mango's tearful face, while Zion seemed to have heard nothing and saw nothing. He seemed to be completely separated from himself and existed alone in his own world. Seeing this, he couldn't help but panic.

"B*stard, your mother is almost scared to tears by you!"

Nathaniel kicked his calf.

It was a forceful kick, which made Zion come to his senses.

He finally reacted upon seeing Mango's anxious expression. "Mom, why are you here?"

"I heard that you were injured. Where did you get hurt?"

Mango sized him up and down, but she didn't notice anything wrong with him. At this instant, she felt even concerned.

Did he got hurt somewhere else which she couldn't see?

She was about to rip off his clothes when Nathaniel stopped her.

"Speak up. Where are you injured? Don't let your mother worry."

Stinky brat, who was already in his 20s, how dare he let his mother strip his clothes?

Shame on him!

However, Zion was in a trance. His ears buzzed, making him feel a little deaf.

He only saw Mango and Nathaniel opening and closing their mouths, but he couldn't hear what they were saying.

He knew that there was something wrong with his ears.

However, he didn't want his parents to worry about him. Even if he couldn't hear them clearly, he could guess what they were asking just from observing their expressions.

Zion said lightly, "I'm fine. They've arranged psychological care. I'm waiting for an appointment."

Hearing this, Mango let out a sigh of relief. However, Nathaniel's expression was a little solemn. Psychological education?

How many years had Zion been in the military region?

It's been 17 years!

A person who had stayed in the military region for 17 years still needed that?

"Mango, go buy him some food. I don't think there's anything to eat here. I'm think he's a little hungry."

Nathaniel's words made Mango suddenly come to her senses. She looked around, and there was nothing except for the bed.

"Okay, I'll go buy some. You take care of him."

Mango looked at her son's lonely figure and her heart ached again.

Seeing that Mango had gone out, Nathaniel asked, "What kind of tasks you're appointed that needed psychological education? What happened to you?"

However, Zion acted as if he didn't hear him. He was still standing in front of the window, lost in thought.

"Zion Ye, I'm talking to you!"

Nathaniel raised his voice, but Zion still didn't respond.

Suddenly, Nathaniel realised something. He dashed in front of Zion and pulled him by the arm. Then, his expression changed instantly.

"Your ears..."

Zion finally saw Nathaniel's expression clearly.

He smiled slightly and said, "Dad, I don't think I can hear anything. I don't know if it's temporary or permanent. It's just drumming in the ears." Although Zion looked fine, he felt terrible.

Seeing this, Nathaniel punched him on the shoulder and his eyes were a little wet.

"You brat, if your mother knew about this, she would be heartbroken to death! Can't you be a little more careful while working on the battlefield?"

He lashed out but Zion couldn't keep up with him. He narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling annoyed and frustrated.

When had Nathaniel ever seen his son in such state?

He pulled his son, who was a little taller than himself, and hugged him tightly. He whispered, "I will find the best doctor to treat you. Don't worry, you will be fine." Although Zion didn't know what Nathaniel had said, he was a little comforted. However, his usual expression remains.

Zion had something on his mind!

But as a father, Nathaniel didn't even know!

Nathaniel felt very uncomfortable. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the sound of high heels coming from outside. The other party was in a hurry.

"Zion Ye!"

The door was pushed open and a beautiful woman rushed in instantly. When she saw

Nathaniel, she was stunned and quickly stopped her pace.

"Hello, Mr. Ye."

Nathaniel immediately let go of Zion and switched his gaze on the woman.

It was Evangeline Xiao!

Nathaniel had always known that Evangeline had stayed in Z Country as an overseas student in recent years. He knew that she was close with Zion.

When they were young, the two of them would find the moment they met. However, they got along well with each other once they grew up. Since Evangeline was here, Nathaniel patted Zion's shoulder sensibly. He tried to calm down and say to Zion, "I'm going out to see your mother. You two can have a talk."

After that, he turned around and left. When he passed by Evangeline, he couldn't help but whisper, "Give him some advice. I'm afraid he can't take it all of a sudden."

"I will, Mr. Ye."

Hearing Evangeline's words, Nathaniel felt relieved and walked out.

However, as soon as Nathaniel left, Zion's aura became a little colder.

"Get out!"

Evangeline was taken aback by his indifference, but her heart ached a little when she looked at him.

"I've already called my mom. She'll come over as soon as possible. Everything will be fine. Zion, you..."

Evangeline stepped forward and tried to hold his hand, but he avoided her.

"Zion?"

She was a little stunned.

He actually avoided her?

Why?

The relationship between them had obviously improved a lot since they entered adulthood. She even thought that it would get even better now. What was going on? Evangeline stepped forward again, but Zion grabbed her wrist. His beautiful eyes were extremely cold and distant as if they had known each other for the first time. "Why? Why are you here?"

Zion muttered, and his eyes were fixed on her. Although it was just a question, the desolation and despair in his words deeply hurt Evangeline.

Did he actually see her?
