When Liang Feifan arrived at the hospital, Chin Jin-hee had already been sent to the emergency room. Outside the emergency room, Bai Lu was sitting on a bench with a blank expression on her face, covered in blood.
Her face was as white as a sheet of paper. Even though they were separated by a long corridor, Liang Feifan could clearly feel her body trembling. Her slender fingers were clasped together, and everything around her seemed to be gray.
Liang Feifan's heart skipped a beat. He took a deep breath and walked towards Bai Lu.
"… Mr. Liang, something happened to Mrs. Liang …"
"It's a call from the hospital. Chin Jin-hee, she … got into a car accident."
"There are no witnesses yet, but … someone called the police, so the police are investigating. We don't know the situation yet, and she's still in the hospital … Mr. Liang, because you asked me to investigate Chin Jin-hee's matter, I found out that she's been in City A recently, and she's even met with your mother in private several times, Mr. Liang."
…
The long corridor seemed to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. Every time Liang Feifan took a step closer to her, those voices would clearly flash past his ears. It was as if there were two forces in his body constantly pulling at him. However, he could only suppress them and walk faster and faster.
"Bai Lu." As soon as Liang Feifan sat down, he reached out to grab her hand. His voice was low and hoarse. "Bai Lu, how are you? It's me, I'm here. Sorry, I'm late. "
Bai Lu was in a trance, and all her thoughts seemed to have been emptied. Too many images flashed through her mind, but they were too fast, so fast that she couldn't capture any of them. Suddenly, she heard a deep male voice. It sounded so familiar, yet so strange.
"… Bai Lu."
Liang Feifan saw that she didn't speak, and her small hands were cold in his palms. He frowned, and his heart ached. "Don't be like this, I already know. Bai Lu, look at me. You'll be fine, okay?"
Bai Lu reacted a little late, and her blank eyes slowly focused. She was familiar with the handsome face in front of her, and she could feel the masculine scent in his body. But … why did she feel no sense of security like before? Instead, she felt terrible?
An image flashed through her mind. A woman was forcefully pulling and pushing another woman, and in the end, someone collapsed in a pool of blood … She suddenly snapped back to her senses, and the last trace of blood on her lips disappeared. "Let me go! Let me go! "
Bai Lu pushed Liang Feifan away forcefully. The unprepared man stumbled from her sudden brute force, and he used his hand to support himself on the bench to prevent himself from falling. Liang Feifan looked up, and his frown deepened. "Bai Lu, what's wrong with you? I'm Liang Feifan. "
Bai Lu took two steps back, and she kept shaking her head. Her trembling voice was full of resistance. "… You, stay away from me."
Liang Feifan's brows knitted together. He stood up and walked towards her. "I'm Liang Feifan. What's wrong with you? It's me … "
"I know it's you, Liang Feifan. It's you. Stay away from me." Her broken voice was filled with sorrow, but she insisted on shouting, "… I don't want to see you!"
"Bai Lu …"
"Go away, go away!"
There was no trace of blood on her face. The woman who would have leaned into his arms and smiled happily was now full of resistance. It was all resistance towards him. Liang Feifan felt an unprecedented sense of panic. "Bai Lu, don't be like this. Calm down. I know something happened to your mother. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you alone in the hospital. Calm down, will you? Bai Lu, look at me. I'm Liang Feifan, your husband. Wife … "
"Don't call me that!"
Big beads of tears rolled down her cheeks. Bai Lu reached out to cover her ears, and she kept shaking her head. "Don't call me that, don't call me that … I saw it with my own eyes. I saw it with my own eyes …"
All the feelings came flooding in. Before Bai Lu could finish her sentence, darkness attacked her. She fell limply to the ground. Liang Feifan's heart tightened. He strode forward, grabbed her waist, and pulled her into his arms. The moment his hand touched her body, he felt that her body was sticky. He reached out and touched her lower abdomen. His fingers were bright red …
Liang Feifan's heartbeat quickened. For a moment, she even forgot to breathe. The corners of her eyes and the tips of her brows were flustered. "… Where's the doctor? Where's the doctor? Where is he? … The doctor needs to come quickly! "
…
She kept dreaming. It was a bizarre dream. There were too many people in the dream. Her father, her mother, and her child whose face she couldn't see clearly. It was as if everyone she knew had appeared in this dream. But in the end, she still couldn't figure out what this dream meant.
When she opened her eyes, she felt an unprecedented fatigue. It was as if her whole body had been sucked dry.
Her hand was being held by someone. It was a familiar warmth, a familiar touch, and a familiar scent.
She stared at the ceiling and didn't move at all. Finally, she felt the person beside her stand up. That familiar handsome face came closer. "You're awake? Bai Lu, how are you? "
"Bai Lu, don't be like this. I'm really worried about you … Talk to me. What's wrong?"
Liang Feifan had never felt like this before. He really felt that he shouldn't have left her alone in the hospital. He should have put aside all his emotions. Now that she was pregnant, what was more important than her?
"Bai Lu …"
"Where's my mom?" she suddenly asked. Her hoarse voice sounded as if it had been run over by old gears.
Hearing her finally speak, Liang Feifan heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that she was struggling to get up, Liang Feifan hurriedly pressed her shoulders and said in a low voice, "Don't move. You were agitated. Just now, you almost … Bai Lu, Mom is still in the operating room. I've already called the best doctors over. She'll be fine. Trust me. You have to lie down properly. There can't be any more accidents. Our child is still in your stomach. Be good, okay? "
— Our child …
These few words finally touched Bai Lu. She stared blankly, but tears fell and soaked the pillow.
Liang Feifan's eyes were filled with heartache. He reached out and hugged her. "Don't cry. Mom will be fine."
However, Bai Lu reached over and grabbed Liang Feifan's wrist. Her red eyes stared at him without blinking. After a moment, she calmly called out to him, "Feifan."
"When you went to the hotel to look for Buck, did you see my mom?"
Liang Feifan's tightly knitted brows froze for a moment. "Why are you asking me this?"
Why?
Because she wasn't a fool. Her thoughts weren't illogical. On the contrary, she had always been smart. Perhaps it was because she had always been cold and aloof. When she used to work, she didn't like to gossip about other people's affairs. However, she could stand aside and see through many people and things.
After Liang Feifan went to the hotel to look for Buck, he completely changed. It was only one night, but he insisted on sending her abroad. After that, he kept avoiding her. Then there was her mother. When she heard that Liang Feifan had gone to the hotel, she obviously didn't panic. Finally, she went to look for Li Tanglin. When they met, they even got into an argument.
And then there was Li Tanglin, whom she had seen at her father's grave not long ago.
Could everything really be just a coincidence?
No, there simply couldn't be so many coincidences in this world. In her extreme panic and shock, these images repeatedly flashed through her mind.
So now that she had calmed down, she was almost certain that the things that she had suspected she didn't know, the people closest to her must have known clearly.
She propped herself up and tried to sit up. Liang Feifan helped her put a pillow under her.
Bai Lu looked at him and said word by word, "I know you're hiding something from me. Are you still not going to tell me now?"
Liang Feifan's fingers moved. His voice was still calm, but there was a hint of helplessness that even he couldn't hide. "Bai Lu, don't think so much now. Everything will pass."
"If it won't pass, why would it pass? What has already happened has already happened. Do you know what I saw? I just saw with my own eyes. It was you — "
"Mr. Liang —" There was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting Bai Lu's words. It was Guan Chao who pushed the door open and entered. He looked anxious. "Mr. Liang, Mrs. Liang's mother just finished her surgery. Now she's outside."
"My mom? Is my mom's surgery done?"
Bai Lu threw himself at Liang Feifan and shook his hand. "Take me to see my mom. Hurry!"
"Bai Lu, don't be so agitated."
Liang Feifan quickly stabilized her body. Her mood was too volatile now. In fact, she fainted just now because the fetus was affected. The doctor had already said that there couldn't be any more accidents, and she couldn't be stimulated any more. Otherwise, the child in her belly was very likely to be lost.
"I'll take you to see her now. Don't be agitated." Liang Feifan frowned. He knew that he couldn't let her stay here, so he turned around and ordered Guan Chao, "Go get a wheelchair."
Guan Chao didn't move. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mrs. Liang's mother … Her condition isn't very good after the surgery. She's still unconscious and is in the ICU. In Mrs. Liang's condition … I don't think it's suitable for her to be admitted to the ICU. Also, Mr. Liang, there are a few police officers outside. " Guan Chao glanced at Bai Lu and seemed to be in a difficult position. "They're probably here to take Mrs. Liang's statement. Someone has already called the police about the car accident. The police have already filed a record and they're waiting outside now."
