Chapter 484 - A Troublesome Patient (1/2)

Du Jingtang touched his nose. Then, he reached out with one hand and waved. ”Goodbye, ex-ex-Cousin-in-law. A good woman like you deserves happiness. See, your happily-ever-after is here. What a matching couple.”

While he was mumbling, an unfounded chill suddenly crept on him. He shivered violently. He turned around and saw the man at the door behind him. The corners of his eyes started spasming.

”Brother, when did you come out? Were you just here?” He pointed in front of him as his brain struggled to come up with logic.

Chu Lui turned around and strode back into his ward. Then, he pulled the blanket and laid down without a word. The temperature of the air around him seemed to drop a few degrees, becoming colder.

The heater in the hospital was turned on to the maximum, which made it comfortable for anyone to be wearing a thin layer of pajamas. However, it did not prevent Du Jingtang's hands from rubbing along his arms.

He could seriously feel something going wrong. He went in, pulled a chair, and sat down. His hand reached out to support his chin.

”Brother, are you staying here because of her?”

The patient neither moved nor spoke a word.

”Brother, whatever happened between both of you is in the past.” Du Jingtang felt he had to speak up and remind his cousin. ”Are you thinking of retrieving the stone which you initially had discarded… now that you know it was actually gold? You should know that a good man doesn't backtrack. Besides, you did those things to her.”

His hand glazed his face. If he was a woman, he would never forgive his cousin for what he did. Needless to say, Du Jingtang resolved his cousin's decisions behind his back. However, the harm had been done.

Divorced, got married, and got another divorce. Did his cousin think everyone in the world revolved around him?

Was he trying to force his way back into her life now that she finally had something good going on? Gao Yi aside, Du Jingtang couldn't bear for that little cutie to come to any harm.

Chu Lui continued to turn his back towards Du Jingtang.

Fine. Du Jingtang would say no more. The more he said, the more tears he would shed.

He wiped the corners of his eyes. Then, he yawned after a long time. A drop of tear could be seen at the corner of his eye.

”I'll go back to the company first.” He carried that whole stack of doc.u.ments signed by Chu Lui and prepared to leave. However, he stopped when he reached the doorway as though he was trying to suppress some emotions.

Oh…” he sighed.

It was exactly as Du Jingtang had said: I told you so. Chu Lui had committed those sins in the first place so it was only right that he tried to make up for his wrongdoings. He shouldn't say that he was repenting and that he wanted to reconcile with Xia Ruoxin.

Nevertheless, humans had emotions: being happy or feeling upset. A simple sorry couldn't retrieve all the time in the past. Time was a heartless thing. Moreover, it had been four years.

No one knew the man who had his back towards everyone had opened his eyes. What emotions were going through them right now?

Irritation, regret, remorse, and inability to come to terms with what had happened. In the end, every thread of his regret and shame would start to fill him with whatever time he had left… for the rest of his life in this lifetime.
