A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu Chapter 462 - I Would Have to Let Her Go Someday

Chapter 462 I Would Have to Let Her Go Someday

Mu Sijue suddenly had a bad feeling. He gripped Xu Youning’s hand. “Xu Youning!”

He finally stopped covering up how anxious he was but Xu Youning didn’t react.

Xu Youning looked like a lifeless porcelain after pa.s.sing out like that. She just quietly lay in bed and her face was pale like paper. You could barely feel her breathing.

If it wasn’t for the cold sweat which kept coming out from her forehead, Mu Sijue would almost believe that she had lost all life signs.

She was alright while she was picking up the fruits. Why would she suddenly be like that?

Mu Sijue took out the phone and dialed Lu Boyan’s number.

The call was soon connected and Lu Boyan’s confused voice was soon heard. “You can make a call there?”

“Xu Youning is not feeling well. We’re on our way back,” Mu Sijue said, “Tell the doctor to get prepared.”

Lu Boyan stopped for a second. “Is it serious?”

“I’m not sure.” Mu Sijue took a look at Xu Youning who was in bed and his voice became graver. “She doesn’t seem okay.”

Having hung up the phone, Mu Sijue went to the c.o.c.kpit and ordered the pilot to speed up. “Get back to the island in an hour.”

The pilot quickly nodded.

Although Mu Sijue had always acted serious and cold, there was meaning in his words that brooked no denial. They could feel that if they were a bit late and something happened to the woman he was carrying on his back, they would be unable to keep the job, even their lives.

Mu Sijue went back to the room. Xu Youning was still curled up in the quilt. The hair close to her forehead was already soaked by the sweat.

He looked at her for a while and then picked up the handkerchief to wipe off the sweat for her.

His hands, which had been stained with blood and had signed contracts worth hundreds of millions. But he had never wiped anyone’s sweat.

It had only been half a trip, but he had already done two things for Xu Youning that he had never done before.

Xu Youning’s impact on him might be bigger than he thought.

Having wiped off the sweat, Mu Sijue reached out and touched Xu Youning’s forehead to sense her temperature. It was incredibly low. Then he touched the hand covered in the quilt. It was too cold.

He went to the next room to take find another quilt to cover her. He carefully folded it for her.

“Grandma…” Xu Youning who was asleep suddenly frowned. She seemed to be having a nightmare and her voice sounded like crying. “Grandma…”

“Xu Youning?” Mu Sijue tried to wake her up.

But Xu Youning was trapped in her world. “Grandma… don’t go…”

Her voice was filled with nervousness. Mu Sijue held her hand and his voice became gentle. “Xu Youning?”

She seemed to have sensed something. She grabbed Mu Sijue’s hand tightly, as if holding onto a lifesaver. After being quiet for a while, tears suddenly came out from the corners of her eyes.

She slightly murmured, “Mu Sijue…” She seemed to be looking for Mu Sijue or asking for help from Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue felt the strangeness and answered, “I’m here.”

Xu Youning didn’t say anything else. For a few minutes, she held Mu Sijue’s hand as tightly as she could. Then she just lost it as she was giving something up. Then she went back to a deep sleep once again.

Mu Sijue felt the temperature of her forehead again and it wasn’t that low this time. Her hands were not as cold. He was relieved temporarily.

During the time that followed, Mu Sijue didn’t leave Xu Youning’s room for a second.

This was the first time in his life that he had accompanied someone in bed and not feeling it was a waste of time.

Later, when Mu Sijue carefully thought about it, this one hour was the only quiet time he and Xu Youning had spent together for the whole year.

An hour later, the boat reached the island and Mu Sijue directly carried Xu Youning down the boat.

Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun were waiting by the sh.o.r.e and Su Jianan’s private doctor followed them there.

Once seeing Mu Sijue getting off the boat, Shen Yuechuan walked up right away. “Do you need any help?”

“No.” Mu Sijue walked hastily. “Take the doctor to my cabin.”

Shen Yuechuan signaled the doctor to follow them and stopped Xiao Yunyun who wanted to follow them. He warned her, “Didn’t you see how bad Mu Qi looks? There’s no need for you to join the scene, being a doctor specialized in cardiac surgery. If Xu Youning is not looked after, Mu Sijue might throw you into the sea to have a bath.”

Xiao Yunyun pried her hand from Shen Yuechuan’s. “Maybe there’s something wrong with Youning’s heart!”

She didn’t heed Shen Yuechuan’s words. Instead, she stubbornly followed Mu Sijue.

It was a basic rule of hers as a doctor: never ignore a patient!

Shen Yuechuan nervously looked at Xiao Yunyun’s figure and shouted inside—”There can’t be anything wrong with Xu Youning’s heart! If there was something wrong, it would be impossible for her to undertake the job as a spy, since it involves dealing with a great deal of pressure!”

He was upset. The patient Xiao Yunyun needed to check on was him!

On the other side, Mu Sijue quickly carried Xu Youning back to the cabin. The doctor’s examination was timely and all the results seemed normal.

The doctor felt troubled. “We’re not in the hospital, where we would have access to professional equipment. From what I’ve seen here, there’s nothing abnormal. Do you have anything you want to tell me?”

Mu Sijue thought about it and looked unnatural. But he finally said it, “She’s in her period.”

“Could it be the menstrual pain?” The doctor asked, “Has it ever happened to your girlfriend before?”

“She…” Mu Sijue hesitated, which was really rare for him. In the end, he didn’t deny that Xu Youning was his girlfriend. “Never.”

Xu Youning had been with him for over a year, but she had never complained about feeling uncomfortable during her period. So, he was very sure.

“It’s odd.” The doctor thought about it and asked, “Did she eat anything special today?”

Mu Sijue suddenly was reminded of something and called the people on the boat to bring him the fruits Xu Youning had picked that morning.

If he wasn’t mistaken, Xu Youning started feeling uncomfortable after eating that fruit.

The doctor took a look at the fruit and smiled, “It makes sense then. It’s an extremely cold fruit. Someone who is weak will feel uncomfortable after eating it, not to mention a girl during her period.”

“So, she’s not ill?” Mu Sijue didn’t realize he was quite relaxed.

“Of course not,” The doctor said with certainty, “Let her have some rest; she will be fine when she wakes up. But to be sure, if you’re still worried, you can take her to the hospital to have a detailed examination when you go back tomorrow.”

After quite a while, Mu Sijue realized the last sentence of the doctor came too late.

After seeing the doctor off, Mu Sijue and the sleeping Xu Youning were left in the s.p.a.cious room.

Maybe she was still feeling unwell, Xu Youning kept frowning and sweating.

Mu Sijue sat by the bed and wiped the sweat on her forehead. At the same time, he held Xu Youning’s hand without even knowing.

When carefully looking at it, one would find that Xu Youning’s hand was rougher than average girls, with calluses on the knuckles.

If they weren’t slim and well-shaped, Xu Youning’s hands could be the ugliest hands from a girl that he had ever seen.

However, just those ugly hands could make his heart ache.

Even if she wasn’t like Su Jianan who had a clean background, nothing would be like that if she weren’t connected with Kang Ruicheng.

While thinking about it, Mu Sijue gradually released Xu Youning’s hand.

He would have to do that someday.

Right at this moment, he heard someone knocking at the door. Mu Sijue walked over, opened the door and found Lu Boyan, Su Jianan and Xiao Yunyun standing outside.

“How is Youning?” Su Jianan asked. “Dr. Han told us she was in pain.”

“She just ate something bad. She will be fine after a day’s rest,” Mu Sijue said, “Don’t worry about her.”

Su Jianan carefully observed Mu Sijue and smiled, “It seems… you’re the one who worries about Youning the most.” Then, she directly pulled Lu Boyan to leave.

Just after they left, Lu Boyan told Su Jianan, “You’re the second person who dares to bother Mu Qi.”

Su Jianan asked with a great sense of achievement, “Who’s the first one?”

Lu Boyan stopped for a minute and said, “Who else could it be except for Xu Youning?”

Many years later, when Su Jianan carefully recalled the details of how she got along with Xu Youning, she realized how helpless Lu Boyan’s words were.

By the time Lu Boyan and Su Jianan’s figures were completely out of his sight, Mu Sijue turned around to enter the room.

Looking at Xu Youning in bed, Mu Sijue frowned—

Were his worries that obvious?

Thinking about it, Mu Sijue’s face turned cold.

It didn’t matter that Su Jianan could see his worries. But he couldn’t let Xu Youning find out!

But Xu Youning was trapped in a nightmare at the moment.

The nightmare started almost at the moment she pa.s.sed out.

In the dream, she went back to her childhood, to the place where her parents died in a car accident. She experienced the time she lost her parents again. Her grandma raised her up with so much difficulty. And she could only pretend to be strong.

Then, like in a movie scene, she grew up in a flash while in the dream and had her current face.

Maybe she had the compet.i.tive gene in her body. After she grew up, the hatred that sprouted from the death of her parents became more and more unforgettable in her mind. She learned financial management but her mind was filled with the truth of her parents’ case.

There was an encouraging sentence, which said that, once you made up your mind to do something, the whole world would come to your aid.

Then, she ran into Kang Ruicheng, which she thought was destiny. To avenge her parents, she voluntarily made herself a special weapon for Kang Ruicheng.

Those few years, she lied to her grandma about her being studying abroad. While in fact, she was doing an incredibly dangerous job.

She had thought about how sad her grandma would be if she knew the truth someday. Therefore, she could only force herself to be an invincible weapon.

Only by becoming stronger could she protect herself and her grandma.

But then, the picture was turned. She seemed to be back home and saw her grandma lying on the cold floor. A pair of hands strangled her neck. Her grandma painfully stared into the air and kept calling her name,

“Youning… Youning…”

“Grandma…” Xu Youning wanted to rush over to pull that hand away but she couldn’t. She seemed to be trapped by something and couldn’t move no matter how hard she tried.

“Youning…” Her grandma stared at her and slowly closed her eyes.

“Grandma!” Xu Youning suddenly exploded. She could finally move so she rushed over and held her grandma, but her grandma was cold.

She was completely blank, as if punched directly in the brain.

After she realized she had lost her grandma forever, she shouted out loud…
