His voice was tinged with hysteria, "Didn't you even like me for a single second?"
Yan Heqing gazed at him, his light-colored pupils gradually darkening.
The fragments described in the original text flashed before his eyes, eventually converging on Lu Muchi's face and disappearing, leaving only his face.
One sheet.
It made him nauseous.
His face disgusted him.
His lips were devoid of warmth as he uttered a harsh sentence, "Every second I spend with you makes me sick."
Lu Muchi suddenly stood up. He grabbed Yan Heqing's collar fiercely across the table, but stopped when he saw the marks on his collarbone.
Yan Heqing disgustedly shook off his hand, and Lu Muchi motionless, his eyes filled with jealousy, resentment, and shame, until finally nothing remained.
Lu Muchi a huge emptiness in his heart; he couldn't even breathe. He stopped looking at Yan Heqing, slammed his head against the table, and slowly left.
Yan Heqing did not turn around.
The coffee in front of him emitted a rich aroma, but he knew it was very bitter.
Yan Heqing called for a waiter, and when the waiter came over, he smiled and said, "Please give me a candy."
The waiter quickly brought over a plate of sugar cubes, eight in total, arranged in a small tower. There were tweezers next to it to pick up the sugar cubes, and he picked up two of them.
Just as I was about to put the coffee in, there was a sudden loud bang outside the window.
As they drew nearer, several exclamations rang out from behind, "There's been a car accident!"
Yan Heqing loosened his grip.
Thump, thump.
Two sugar cubes fell into the coffee cup.
Chapter 127
Police cars and ambulances all arrived.
The sidewalk was crowded with people. Yan Heqing walked past the back of the crowd and heard a few sounds—
"Is one of them no longer viable?"
The front of the car is completely dented.
"They've got him on the truck, so he might be saved..."
Yan Heqing walked away and hailed a car to go home.
The house was as quiet as when he left. Yan Heqing lowered his head. Lu Lin's leather shoes were neatly arranged in the entryway.
He changed into slippers, went to the bathroom to wash his hands and face, and changed back into his pajamas before returning to the bedroom.
I pushed the door open a crack; the bedroom remained dark and silent. The person on the bed was still asleep, not moving.
Yan Heqing pushed the door open a little, went inside, closed it silently, and then went back to bed.
Lu Lin was sleeping soundly. The air conditioning in the room was set quite low, and it would be more comfortable to sleep under a down comforter. Yan Heqing leaned closer to Lu Lin. He was very tired, and his lower back was still sore. Back in familiar surroundings, he fell asleep soon after.
In his sleep, he vaguely felt someone massaging his back, but he was too tired to open his eyes and drifted back into sleep.
I woke up again to the sound of my phone vibrating.
Yan Heqing opened his eyes, his vision quickly clearing; it was his phone.
He deliberately didn't turn off his phone.
The caller was Lu Changcheng.
Before he could even answer, Lu Lin snatched the phone away. With his eyes closed, Lu Lin tossed the phone onto the carpet, then scooped the person up and pulled them into a tight embrace.
Lu Lin patted Yan Heqing's head. "Sleep a little longer."
Yan Heqing then closed his eyes again.
When I woke up this time, the room was completely dark, and Lu Lin was gone.
Yan Heqing's heart skipped a beat. He threw back the covers and got out of bed. He had already picked up his phone and placed it on the bedside table.
He picked up his phone; there were five missed calls and one answered call, all from Lu Changcheng, the last one being at seven o'clock.
It's nine o'clock now.
Yan Heqing put down his phone, went over and opened the door. Only the kitchen light was on, casting a strip of light across the floor, and the air was filled with the strong aroma of pork ribs.
Yan Heqing's stomach rumbled a few times. He had only drunk one cup of coffee since last night. He had been sleepy before, which had suppressed his hunger, but now that he had slept enough, he felt hungry.
He went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Lu Lin, wearing an apron, was preparing a mixed vegetable dish, while pork rib soup simmered on the stove.
Just as Yan Heqing was about to go inside, Lu Lin turned off the stove. "Serve the soup and rice."
Yan Heqing watched his retreating figure. "Your dad called me."
Lu Lin, still with her back to him, poured the mixed vegetables into a plate. "Yes, I received it. Lu Muchi in a car accident and is currently in the hospital receiving emergency treatment."
Yan Heqing's eyelashes fluttered. "Are you going over there?"
"Finish your meal." Lu Lin turned around, carrying the dishes, and walked to the door. He bent down and gently bumped his forehead against Yan Heqing's. "Go get the soup."
Lu Lin couldn't possibly have failed to notice that he had gone out.
But he didn't ask anything.
Hearing the footsteps receding into the distance, Yan Heqing's chest heaved a few times before he went into the kitchen to get the pork rib soup.
The dishes were all lightly seasoned, and millet was added to the rice. Yan Heqing ate two bowls before putting down her chopsticks. Just as she was about to speak, Lu Lin stood up. "Change your clothes and come with me."
Ten minutes later, the two went downstairs and set off.
Still in the best hospital in the capital, the corridor was silent and filled with the suffocating smell of disinfectant. Lu Changcheng stood stubbornly at the door of the operating room, staring intently at the red light. Lu Han sat in a chair, looking down at the ground without saying a word.
The housekeepers and caregivers kept a distance from them, barely daring to breathe.
The sound of the elevator doors opening was incredibly clear, and everyone except Lu Changcheng immediately looked towards the elevator.
When Lu Lin came out, the butler who had been accompanying him first breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw Yan Heqing behind him, the butler's expression immediately changed. He glanced at Lu Han and Lu Changcheng out of the corner of his eye, and his palms began to sweat.
Unlike a caregiver, he was an elder of the Lu Family, and he had seen Yan Heqing at the Lu Family banquet.
The person who hit Lu Muchi today is Yan Heqing's adoptive father!
Lu Changcheng wanted nothing more than to tear Yan Heqing to pieces!
Better than a fight! The butler steeled himself and was about to go inform Lu Lin when Lu Han interrupted him, "Dad, A-Lin and—" Lu Han gritted his teeth, " Yan Heqing is here."
The housekeeper had no choice but to give up, sighed heavily in his heart, tugged at the caregiver, and walked a little further away.
Lu Changcheng didn't react, but Lu Han suddenly stood up and stared at Yan Heqing.
Yan Heqing remained calm and followed Lu Lin to Lu Changcheng's side.
