Chapter 77

This man once stood up to be the sky and the earth.

He always does what he wants and never restricts his desires.

But now, even if Lu Xiangdong was extremely angry with Lin Qianqian in his heart, he could only close his eyes like this, stop talking, and express his anger silently and in vain.

Lin Qianqian would rather have him jump up and kick her hard, or give herself a slap, than see him so powerless.

Thinking that Lu Xiangdong did this for her own sake, Lin Qianqian felt that her heart had been put in the pool, and it was sore and swollen.

She stood up from the chair, walked to the bed, walked around in front of Lu Xiangdong, sat down beside him in silence, then bent down, and hugged him tightly. Many emotions, and finally became choked up, "I'm sorry."

Lu Xiangdong's body froze.

It took some time before Lin Qianqian felt his hands on her back and patted it gently.

As if comforting Lin Qianqian, although it was very light, it carried a reassuring strength.

Under Lin Qianqian's care, Lu Xiangdong's health improved day by day.

His sharp and thin chin slowly began to plump, and he seemed to be more energetic.The upper body, which was still a little disobedient, can already do some simple voluntary activities, but the part from the waist down is still like a plaster cast, and there is no feeling at all.

Lin Qianqian saw Lu Xiangdong secretly pinch her thigh several times with heavy force, but there was still no change in expression on his face.

He couldn't even feel the pain.

Every time Lin Qianqian would walk over at this time, Lu Xiangdong would calmly remove his hand that was ravaging her thigh, smile at her, and abruptly change the subject.

Lin Qianqian asked Ling Fengtian what was going on.

Ling Fengtian told her that it may be because Lu Xiangdong has been in a coma for a long time and his body functions have not recovered.After all, those two bullets almost caused Lu Xiangdong to step half of his legs into the Palace of Hades. He was extremely lucky to be able to wake up.

Lin Qianqian couldn't get a definite answer, so she could only keep guarding Lu Xiangdong, hoping that he would recover soon.

It's a pity that the sky didn't come true. After half a month, Lu Xiangdong's lower body still didn't improve at all.

When Lin Qianqian asked Ling Fengtian again, Ling Fengtian also realized the seriousness of the problem.He called several American experts over for a consultation overnight, checked Lu Xiangdong's physical condition in detail, and finally got the same answer as before.

When Lin Qianqian listened to Ling Fengtian repeating some technical terms, she couldn't help feeling dizzy. After finally waiting for Ling Fengtian to finish speaking, Lin Qianqian couldn't wait to ask her own question, "How long will it take? Recovery?"

Ling Fengtian glanced at her, and said lightly, "It depends on God's will."

The expression on Lin Qianqian's face was blank.

Look at God's will, just three words, it's ridiculous to say it, but it's sad when you think about it.

"If he doesn't recover, what will be the consequences?" Lin Qianqian's voice trembled so much that it didn't belong to her anymore. It was hoarse and dull, and it was completely devoid of the usual briskness and cheerfulness.

Looking at her miserable blue face, Ling Fengtian calmly said two words, "Paralyzed."

Lin Qianqian felt her head buzzing, and there were constant murmurs in her ears. It turned out that Ling Fengtian's short words gave her tinnitus.

She twitched her lips, smiling uglier than crying, "It's a pity that you don't want to be a quack doctor. Lu Xiangdong was shot in the chest, not the leg. How could he be paralyzed? What a flaw, okay?"

Ling Fengtian pursed his lips and took off his glasses.

Losing the cover of the glasses, his gaze also lost its gentleness, and became extremely aggressive. He said coldly, "Lin Qianqian, you have to accept the reality."

Lin Qianqian smiled wryly, and was about to say something, when suddenly, she felt a familiar gaze staring at her motionlessly from behind.

Subconsciously, she turned her head hastily, and saw Lu Xiangdong sitting in a wheelchair looking at her expressionlessly.

Lin Qianqian will never forget the expression on Lu Xiangdong's face at that moment.

There was no longer the cold, indifferent, and supercilious arrogance he had before, and there was only a blank space with no end in sight.It's like a heavy snowfall in the deep winter, falling profusely, leaving only a barren whiteness in the whole world.

The room was silent for three seconds.

It was as if the pause button had been pressed, and there was not even a sound of breathing.

It wasn't until the sound of Lu Xiangdong shaking his wheelchair with difficulty resounded in the corridor that Lin Qianqian woke up like a dream. She pushed Ling Fengtian who was standing in front of her, and ran after her desperately.

Her heart had never been so flustered.

Even at the beginning, when she saw the killer pointing a gun at her, she didn't do this.

The beating heart was like a fire that had been boiled for a long time, bubbles of all sizes kept popping up, and it couldn't calm down no matter what.

The floor where Ling Fengtian's office is located is different from the floor dedicated to Lu Xiangdong, and it happened to be the afternoon rush hour, and the corridor was full of people.

Lin Qianqian chased after her for a long time before she saw the figure who was struggling to move forward in the dense crowd.

The crowd didn't seem to notice Lu Xiangdong like Lin Qianqian did.

While pushing and shouting, someone rushed to push away the crowd with a fruit basket for visiting patients, ran over, and bumped heavily into Lu Xiangdong's wheelchair.The wheelchair was prone to slipping. After Lu Xiangdong was hit, he spun around on the spot. The chair changed direction, hit another person's leg, bounced back, and caught up with the person in the opposite direction.

The person who caused the trouble was carrying a fruit basket, his eyes widened, and he hadn't recovered yet.

Probably he had never seen a man in his 20s sitting in a wheelchair, and he was so staggered by the knock, he felt strange.

Lin Qianqian rushed over anxiously, stabilized Lu Xiangdong's wheelchair, and yelled at the man uncontrollably, "How do you walk? You don't usually wear eyes when you go out, or your eyes were eaten by dogs and you can't see what's ahead. Someone."

The man was taken aback by the yelling, and was about to retaliate, but saw that the woman standing in front of him, who looked fierce, had an abnormally white face, and her hands holding the wheelchair were trembling unconsciously.

After a pause, he forced out a word of sorry and left quickly.

Lin Qianqian wanted to chase after her, but Lu Xiangdong grabbed her sleeve.

She turned her head and looked at Lu Xiangdong, she couldn't take her eyes off.

In the twilight of late autumn, the warm yellow sunlight spread silently on Lu Xiangdong's face, passing by his eyes, all of them got into his pupils, but there was no way to illuminate the deep blackness inside.

Lu Xiangdong was sitting in the sun, but he was never without the sun.

Afterwards, Lin Qianqian pushed Lu Xiangdong back to the ward, and the two of them didn't say a word during the whole journey.

It's not that Lin Qianqian didn't want to say it, but when she saw Lu Xiangdong's face, she couldn't speak anymore.

If Lu Xiangdong's shooting had nothing to do with her, Lin Qianqian might be able to post it with a playful smile as if nothing had happened, and then say affectionately, "Isn't it just paralysis? What are you afraid of? I will support you."

However, if it were not for him, Lu Xiangdong would not have been injured.

Thinking of this, Lin Qianqian's heart twisted into a ball.

After returning to his room, Lu Xiangdong lay down beside the bed, staring at the ceiling without saying a word, wondering what he was thinking.

Lin Qianqian had no choice but to stay with him, and the two of them almost stared through several big holes in the ceiling.

Ling Fengtian brought porridge, but Lu Xiangdong shook his head and didn't eat it.

Seeing the bowl of porridge getting colder, Lin Qianqian pursed her lips tightly.

Lin Qianqian couldn't open her mouth. The more she thought about many things, the more frightened she felt.

If Lu Xiangdong was really paralyzed, what would he do?Take care of him for the rest of his life?
Obviously it was a natural answer, but Lin Qianqian couldn't make it logical at a time like this:
speak out.

In her memory, she and Lu Xiangdong had only known each other for just over three months. She had been moved and nostalgic. When he shielded her from the wind and rain for several times and was injured and admitted to the hospital, Lin Qianqian's heart was even stronger. It's like soaking in water for countless days.

It's just that this impulsiveness will become ridiculous again after calming down.

Three months of feelings, strong is strong, but how long can it last?
Even if she stayed by Lu Xiangdong's side, what if one day she no longer loves him?

The more Lin Qianqian thought about it, the more terrifying she felt.

Lu Xiangdong had already turned his head, leaned against the pillow, and closed his eyes.His breathing was even and long, as if he was not affected by what Ling Fengtian said at all, but the hand that was holding the quilt tightly still revealed his inner unrest.

Lin Qianqian sighed, and gently held his hand.

Feeling that Lu Xiangdong's big hand suddenly stiffened in her palm, Lin Qianqian held him even tighter.

The night is as cold as water, flowing coldly in the silent room.

Lin Qianqian had something on her mind, so she didn't fall asleep all night.She knew that so did Lu Xiangdong.

The hand in her palm was stiff all night.

After that day, Lu Xiangdong became less talkative.

Lin Qianqian searched a lot of jokes from the Internet, tried her best to pretend to be funny, and told Lu Xiangdong, but Lu Xiangdong didn't respond at all, but just looked at her calmly.

Obviously his gaze fell on her, but Lin Qianqian felt that his gaze pierced her and looked at something else.

This kind of feeling of being seen through by others is not good, it is always like a knife has been pierced straight through one's body.

Lin Qianqian smiled for a long time. Seeing that Lu Xiangdong was still expressionless, the smile could no longer hold on and became dry, "The joke just now...is very funny, isn't it?"

Lu Xiangdong glanced at her, and replied lightly, "Yes."

Lin Qianqian's hand suddenly clenched into a fist.

She suddenly felt discouraged.

Lin Qianqian began to be afraid of seeing Lu Xiangdong, she was terrified of him piercing her with that emotionless gaze, looking at places she didn't know.

Lu Xiaoxi began to appear frequently in the ward again.

Ling Fengtian sensed that something was wrong with Lin Qianqian, and wanted to talk to her, but Lin Qianqian was able to dodge her.

The last time she talked with Ling Fengtian, she began to doubt her identity.

This time, Lin Qianqian didn't want to change herself because of Ling Fengtian's words.

After Ling Fengtian searched for her several times but failed, he simply took Lu Xiaoxi away.

There was no one around Lu Xiangdong to take care of her anymore, Lin Qianqian scolded Ling Fengtian countless times in her heart, but still bit the bullet, honestly carried the meal that Lu Xiaoxi had prepared for Lu Xiangdong, and walked upstairs.

The astonishingly wide corridor was still empty.

Thinking of Lu Xiangdong's daily life in such tranquility, Lin Qianqian felt a little out of breath.

She actually avoided Lu Xiangdong for her own pleasure, and ignored that it was time he needed someone to accompany him.

The footsteps towards the ward are unconsciously lightened.Lin Qianqian subconsciously stopped at the door of the ward, looked into the ward from the half-person-high glass window above, her eyes narrowed slightly.
