"Shh, listen to me." Leng Dongming suddenly looked at Xin Yu and gave her a gentle smile. His tone was slow, and there was nothing wrong with his words. "I still remember that day, on May 8th, 2009, your mother told me that she had to go to work. She was supposed to be off that day, but she received a call from a colleague at the last minute and asked her to help out at work. So, she hurriedly went to take over the shift. Who knew? After she went there that day, she disappeared. I thought your mother was working the night shift, so she didn't come back to sleep. She knew someone at the hotel. Sometimes, when she was tired from work, she would rest there. But she still didn't come back the next day. She didn't come back the third day either … I knew that something must have happened to her. I looked for her everywhere, but I couldn't find her. In the end, I found out that she … "
"…"
Xin Yu never knew that her mother had gone through such a thing before the accident.
At that time, she was still in school. It was the second year of her sophomore year. She had already forgotten what she said to her parents before she left that day. She only knew that it was May 11th in 2009 when she heard the news of her mother's accident.
Xin Yu's brain buzzed. The 11th, the third day. Wasn't it May 8th if she went back in time?
She looked at Leng Dongming in shock. She never thought that he would remember it so clearly. And … he had never told her about it … Well, after her mother's accident, he started to lose his mind. Xin Yu didn't know what happened at that time. She only knew that her mother had passed away and her father had gone crazy. Then, Lu Shiyun found her … After that, everything in the Leng family was arranged by Lu Shiyun, including her mother's funeral …
…
What on earth happened?
Was there anything that she didn't know about back then?
"Dad, do you still remember what happened in 2009?" Xin Yu's mind was full of questions. Leng Dongming stopped talking halfway. She put down the glass of water, grabbed her father's hand, and asked anxiously, "Dad, what happened after that? Do you still remember? After that … "
"Then … Then …" Leng Dongming frowned as if he was seriously recalling. He kept muttering the word "then". No one knew what he was thinking, but he was suddenly shocked. He pushed Xin Yu away and curled up on the bed.
"Dad …"
"Shut up, shut up! You, you … don't come over. Don't ask me. I don't know anything. I don't know anything … Don't … Don't ask me anymore! "
"Come on, get away from me! Go away! "
"…"
Xin Yu was shocked. She wanted to comfort Leng Dongming, but she was afraid that he would go crazy on her like last time. She stood by the bed, not knowing what to do. The nurse suddenly pushed the door open and came in.
Probably because of what had happened last time, everyone in the hospital still had a lingering fear. So today, when Xin Yu came over, several nurses had been guarding the door. When they heard the noise inside, they immediately rushed in.
"Lady Lu, let us do it."
Xin Yu was pulled away by the nurses. She watched as several well-trained medical staff came forward. They first comforted Leng Dongming in a soft voice, but he became more and more agitated. In the end, someone took out a tranquilizer, pressed him down, and was about to inject him.
Xin Yu was shocked by this scene. She broke free from the nurse who was holding her back and rushed forward. "What are you doing? What kind of drug did you give my dad? "
"Lady Lu, this is a tranquilizer. Mr. Leng is too agitated. If this continues, something bad will happen."
"Why did you give him a tranquilizer? He's too agitated. Is there no other way? My dad might … might not be crazy. You guys have locked him up here for five years. Even a good person would have been turned into a lunatic. If you guys injected him with some kind of tranquilizer, wouldn't that make him even more nervous? No! Let go of my dad. I told you to let go! "
"Lady Lu, please calm down. Mr. Leng is really mentally unstable. Lady Lu, please don't interfere with our work. Lady Lu …"
The nurse held a syringe in her hand and kept saying "Lady Lu." Xin Yu did not think there was anything wrong with these words, but when Leng Dongming heard it, he suddenly trembled. His eyes instantly turned scarlet like a wild beast. He became even more agitated, and all the bedding on the bed was overturned. Several people rushed forward to stop him, but they could not stop him. He glared fiercely at Xin Yu and quickly rushed over, wanting to pounce on Xin Yu. Fortunately, someone pushed Xin Yu aside, and several people rushed forward. Their movements were skillful, but there was a hint of savagery in their movements as they held Leng Dongming.
The nurse in charge did not allow any explanation. She pointed the needle at Leng Dongming's vein.
She inserted the needle into his vein.
The effect of the drug was almost instantaneous. Leng Dongming, who was originally crazed and ferocious, fell to the ground in an instant.
Two nurses carried him, tidied up the bed, and let him lie on the bed.
Xin Yu stood at the side, trembling. She covered her mouth tightly with her hand and bit the back of her hand subconsciously. One of her injured hands was wrapped in gauze, but now, she had bitten the back of her uninjured hand so hard that her gums were visible and there were traces of blood.
"Lady Lu … are you okay?"
Someone came over, probably thinking that she was scared out of her wits. After all, she was a member of the Lu Family. To put it bluntly, this hospital was built for Leng Dongming. They did not dare to offend the Lu Family and wanted to comfort her.
Xin Yu pushed the nurse away fiercely. Her voice was trembling with suppressed anger. "Don't touch me!"
She pointed at her unconscious father on the bed in disbelief. "Is this how you usually … treat my dad? Is this your job? Did the Lu family take out money to support you? How dare you use such inhumane methods to torture my father? "
"Just now, just now, my dad was chatting with me in a good mood. He remembers everything from the past clearly. He even remembers clearly what day and month of 2009 the Leng Family got into trouble! Is this the kind of memory that only a lunatic would have? "
"Lady Lu, Mr. Leng is indeed mentally unsound. However, people who are mentally unsound may also have memories because their minds have been stimulated. That's why they keep some beautiful memories in their mind. This does not mean that he is healthy. Please calm down. If you have any other questions, you can wait until the doctor comes to work tomorrow … "
"I want to see the doctor now!"
"Young Madam Lu, I hope you won't deliberately make things difficult for us. We're just following orders. If it weren't for Old Master Leng being too agitated and easily hurting others, we wouldn't have given him a tranquilizer."
The nurse's words were laced with some emotion.
Actually, everyone knew that Lu Yihan had never cared about his wife. The staff in the hospital were all arranged by Lu Shiyun. To put it bluntly, they were the Lu Family's people. Usually, when this group of people had nothing to do, they would gossip about the Lu Family.
When it came to Xin Yu, they behaved one way on the surface and another way behind her back.
Now that Xin Yu directly refuted their words, these people's emotions were quickly stirred up in the middle of the night. Disdain and annoyance were written all over their faces.
Xin Yu subconsciously clenched her hands by her sides. She was so angry that her face turned pale. "What do you mean by that? Do you only know how to inject these tranquilizers when the patient is agitated? He was so agitated just now, but he fainted after you injected him. What kind of medicine is this? No side effects? My dad has been here for five years, and I have never questioned your medical procedures. Now that I am the only family member of the patient, I have no right to ask about the situation? Do I have the right to voice my opinion? "
"I didn't say that you can't voice your opinion. It's just that your father has already lost his mind. Are you trying to say that we have driven him crazy? Then why did he move in five years ago? For the past five years, we have been the medical staff taking care of him. You have been abroad for five years. Don't tell me that you have become so whimsical? "
"…"
Xin Yu couldn't believe her ears. Not only were these people's words rude, but they were also mocking and ridiculing her. They could completely disregard her, but the person lying on the bed was her only family member in this world. If it was possible, she really wanted to take her father and leave this place.
This was a cage. She didn't know in the past that her father's mental state seemed to be fragmented. Just take the incident just now as an example. He could recall the past so clearly. He might not be completely crazy. When he was agitated, he might have stepped on some sensitive spot. Why did they have to use tranquilizers to calm him down?
Tranquilizers had side effects!
When Xin Yu thought about how during the past five years when she was in England, they might have pressed her father down and injected him with tranquilizers whenever he got agitated, or used more extreme methods … she couldn't help but feel a lingering fear!
Even if he wasn't crazy, when he encountered such a situation, wouldn't he also go crazy?
"I don't think your father will wake up tonight. If you want to stay in the hospital, I can help you find a room." The nurse saw that Xin Yu was staring at her with a pale face. She was very tense, but she didn't say anything. The nurse frowned. Now, even the pretense of politeness on her face was gone.
Xin Yu bit her lip. Just as she was about to say something, the door of the ward behind her was suddenly pushed open with a whoosh.
Xin Yu's voice was stuck in her throat. The moment she turned around and saw the tall figure standing at the door, her heart skipped a beat. At that moment, she seemed to have seen the light of fate.
