Chapter 63 How Tired I Am of This World

Lu Jingxiao noticed that Luo Zhiwei was trembling all over, and she was trembling very badly; she seemed to be afraid.

Luo Zhiwei clutched the hem of her clothes tightly, curled up on the bed, her eyes closed, and could not be woken up no matter how much Lu Jingxiao called her.

"Weiwei, baby..."

His response was even greater fear and despair.

"No, no..."

"Dad, please don't hurt him, please don't hurt Ah Xiao."

"I can die, I can die... I can die... I can die, just let him go."

......

The desperate cries and the distressed words struck Lu Jingxiao like a thunderbolt.

"Let him go, let him go..."

"Mom, save me, I'm dying..."

Luo Zhiwei kept her eyes closed and couldn't wake up, as if trapped in a nightmare.

Si Ming listened to these muttered words, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He didn't notice that Lu Jingxiao, who was squatting in front of the hospital bed, was already kneeling on the ground, his eyes filled with despair.

"Baby, baby," Lu Jingxiao called out repeatedly, "Luo Zhiwei, Luo Zhiwei, it's me, Lu Jingxiao. Look at me, I'm here, I'm here..."

Si Ming felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer, his heart aching terribly.

When has his proud and confident third brother ever been so humble?

Si Ming gently comforted him, "Third Brother, don't be like this. You need to cheer up. Miss Luo needs you right now."

Lu Jingxiao grabbed Si Ming's arm as if he had seen a lifeline: "Fourth brother, tell me, what should I do?"

Si Ming sighed, "You stay with her, don't try to wake her up. Just stay with her. If any other bad symptoms appear, press the call button and I'll come right away."

To be honest, he didn't know what to do either. A person plagued by nightmares is like someone sleepwalking in a nightmare; once woken up, they might come to their senses, but it's very likely... they'll remain immersed in the dream... and never wake up again.

Si Ming left the ward, leaving only Lu Jingxiao and Luo Zhiwei in the room.

Lu Jingxiao tenderly wiped the cold sweat from Luo Zhiwei's forehead with a tissue, and then tenderly kissed her forehead.

"Weiwei, I'm with you."

He suddenly sat on the edge of the bed, took off his coat and shoes, and lay down next to Luo Zhiwei, pulling her tightly into his arms.

At this moment, he felt no joy at having Luo Zhiwei; instead, he felt...heartache.

Luo Zhiwei, what am I going to do with you?

Weiwei, I'm here. I'll always be by your side.

This time, no matter what you say, I won't leave again.

I've decided on you for the rest of my life, you can't abandon me again.

If you abandon me again, then... then I'll come back to you, and we'll be together again.

Weiwei...baby, please don't push me away anymore.

Lu Jingxiao gently comforted Luo Zhiwei, his broad hands softly soothing her. After an unknown amount of time, Luo Zhiwei's rapid breathing finally calmed down, and her babbling gradually subsided until... Lu Jingxiao could no longer hear her.

All night long, Lu Jingxiao didn't dare close his eyes, afraid that Luo Zhiwei would have nightmares again.

Just thinking about it makes his heart ache so much he can't breathe.

These past few days in the hospital ward, Luo Zhiwei probably hasn't slept at all, but today she thought she had driven Gu Youran and him away, so she finally fell asleep with peace of mind.

Even if the caregiver finds out, she can make the caregiver keep quiet once she wakes up.

Luo Zhiwei, you've used all your cunning on us.

Lu Jingxiao didn't sleep a wink all night, but Luo Zhiwei slept very well in the latter half of the night.

**

When Luo Zhiwei woke up, the sun was already high in the sky, and even Gu Youran had been there for quite some time.

She was a little puzzled when she got up. Today she felt better than ever before. She felt relaxed and comfortable, without the previous dullness.

Even Gu Youran noticed that she looked much better than before and couldn't help but say, "Weiwei, I feel like you're much better than before."

Luo Zhiwei raised an eyebrow: "Really? I think so too, but I'm just a little unsure."

It seems we'll have to send them home for the next few days until she's discharged.

"I feel you're in much better shape than you were a couple of days ago." Gu Youran excitedly hugged Luo Zhiwei: "Weiwei, I'm so happy."

I'm happier than anyone else to see you get better.

Luo Zhiwei just smiled faintly. She glanced around the ward and found that... Lu Jingxiao was not there. Where did he go?

As if knowing what Luo Zhiwei was looking for, Gu Youran immediately said, "President Lu left when I arrived this morning."

As she left, it seemed like someone was following behind her, but she didn't recognize who it was.

But it must be one of Lu Jingxiao's men. Maybe he had something important to discuss with him, which is why he left as soon as she arrived.

Luo Zhiwei was lost in thought, feeling a little down. Wait... she suddenly realized, "You just said that Lu Jingxiao only left when you arrived?"

"Yes." Gu Youran didn't think she had said anything wrong. "Weiwei, is there something wrong?"

Shouldn't Lu Jingxiao have stayed by Weiwei's side all night?

Luo Zhiwei frowned even more deeply: "I told him to leave yesterday, but if what you're saying is true, he shouldn't have left all night..."

If she had a nightmare last night, wouldn't Lu Jingxiao know everything?

"Huh?" Gu Youran thought of what she saw this morning: "He doesn't look like he just arrived this morning. Lu Jingxiao's clothes are all wrinkled, and he's still wearing the same clothes as yesterday. If he went home, he would have changed his clothes at least... Or did he not leave last night?"

If that's the case... Mr. Lu, are you going to stick to pure romance?

He didn't go into Weiwei's room all night?

impossible...

Luo Zhiwei: "......"

So, Lu Jingxiao found out she had a nightmare last night, and might even stay with her all night?

But if that's the case, why did Lu Jingxiao leave without saying anything?

This... doesn't seem like him at all.

Gu Youran sensed that there was something she didn't know, and she asked curiously, "Weiwei, what happened?"

Luo Zhiwei slightly curved her lips: "No, it's nothing."

What Luo Zhiwei didn't know was that Lu Jingxiao hadn't left at all, but was in Si Ming's office.

——

Lu Jingxiao sat opposite Si Ming, holding a document in his hand. In fact, it was Luo Zhiwei's medical record that Wei Mingfeng had found out overnight.

His most recent medical record was from the day he returned to China.

According to the diagnostic records and the latest conclusions reached by the psychologist... Luo Zhiwei has suicidal tendencies and has even explicitly expressed her intention to give up treatment.

In other words, the so-called 'chance encounter' that night was not what he thought was destiny, but rather... Luo Zhiwei really didn't want to live anymore. If he hadn't turned the steering wheel in time, then... Luo Zhiwei would very likely have died under his car.

how so...

Lu Jingxiao felt his blood run cold; the thought of it filled him with dread. If...

"Mr. Lu, if possible, we should advise this young lady to continue her treatment. Otherwise, incidents like today's will happen frequently, and she may eventually be unable to bear it and commit suicide..."

Suicide... Lu Jingxiao looked at the medical records, which stated that there had been more than ten suicide attempts... How weary of this world must one be?
