Chapter 568 - Rainys Multiple-Choice-Question (2/2)

Xia Ruoxin stood in the kitchen. Her fingers stung slightly. Her wound had already been carefully wrapped up by Gao Yi. She placed her hand on top of her chest, feeling tightness in there. It was so tight that it seemingly suffocated her.

She turned around and looked outside. Her pupils were slightly dazed as she thought in her mind: marrying Gao Yi, she would definitely be happy—definitely.

She convinced herself this way. She knew that she would never regret this decision. Because everything that man had done for her, she wouldn't be able to repay him for it even if she used a lifetime.

Whereas, at that moment, in the hospital, Chu Lui was breathing slightly erratically. His fever had yet to subside, scaring Du Jingtang so much that he paced about the room. The Chus also stood in the room, not knowing what to do.

What on earth had happened? Yesterday, he was clearly a lot better. How did his cold suddenly get so serious? Song Wan gripped Chu Jiang's hand tightly. She felt unbelievably nervous, so much so that she didn't know what to do. Since he was young, her son had never had gotten so sick before.

”It'll be fine. Don't worry, he'll recover.” Chu Jiang gently patted his wife's hand. In actual fact, he was worried to death. However, as the head of the Chu family, he couldn't show any signs of unease. He still had to console his wife.

However, watching his son lay on the hospital bed, he started to feel weak in the knees as well.

Du Jingtang finally stopped walking. He was sick, and it wasn't any usual sickness. He was love-sick; because of a woman, he was love-sick. Could one say that he deserved it? Could one say that it was self-inflicted?

He was torturing himself, but there was nobody who could help him or give him an answer.

He had to get through everything himself.

”Auntie, Uncle, let's leave for now. Let Cousin have a good rest. The doctor already said that his fever had subsided and that he needed to take a good rest.”

As Du Jingtang spoke, he picked up the bunch of doc.u.ments that Chu Lui had already gone through from one side. It was so thick. He lowered his head, actually giving himself a scare. He could once again confirm that his cousin was not a human but a robot. With such a serious cold, he still managed to look through these thick doc.u.ments. If it was him, he would've passed out from exhaustion a long time ago.

The door was lightly closed, and nobody saw Chu Lui's hands that clenched together tightly. The perspiration on his forehead ceaselessly fell; he was evidently in a state of unease.

”Sorry…” His lips moved from time to time. He was so dehydrated that his lips had cracked.

”Sorry, Ruoxin…” he spoke again. He had said 'sorry' in his heart several times; it was just that nobody heard it, and nobody forgave him. He had lost four years of his life.

It seemed like those four years was his lifetime. He experienced everything but happiness.

Moreover, his daughter… he had also let her down. She was originally supposed to be the little princess of the Chu family, but she ended up suffering together with her mother instead. Sorry, I'm really sorry.

When he woke up again, everything had become experiences of a day before. It was nothing more than a short day, and yet he already tortured himself so much that he seemed like a completely different person. The life in him had been sucked out, and it was replaced with decadence, bitterness, and emaciation.
