Chapter 149 Dawn and Love, A New Beginning

When I woke up again, the hospital was blindingly white.

The smell of disinfectant filled her nostrils, and Luo Tingwei slowly regained consciousness. The pain in her body followed, as if she had been taken apart and then put back together.

She moved her fingers slightly.

The next second, my fingertips were tightly gripped.

The force was restrained, yet it carried a kind of obsession born from loss and regain.

"You're awake."

The man's voice was deep and hoarse, as if he had been waiting for a very long time.

Luo Tingwei turned her head with difficulty and saw Li Yanzhou sitting on the edge of the bed, his eyes bloodshot, his chin covered in stubble, and he looked extremely haggard.

She stared at him blankly for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled.

The laugh was very soft and weak.

"Honey, why do you... look worse than me?"

He froze, looking at her in disbelief, his eyes filled with undisguised astonishment.

What did you call me?

At that moment, he almost stopped breathing, and he could hardly believe his ears.

Luo Tingwei reached out, wanting to touch his face, "Husband..."

Li Yanzhou's eyes suddenly reddened, "You..."

"You remembered?"

Luo Tingwei didn't speak, but two lines of tears rolled down her cheeks. Her hands trembled as she carefully touched his eyes, nose, and lips, murmuring...

"turn out to be……"

"Whether it was five years ago or five years later, it has always been only you in my heart..."

He took her hand, leaned down, and pressed his forehead against the back of her hand, his voice almost inaudible:

"It's good that you're alive."

"Nothing else matters anymore."

"No, this is important..."

Luo Tingwei shook her head, appearing very stubborn. "The only person I've ever liked in my life, the only person I've ever been moved by, is you, Li Yanzhou. I want you to know that whether it was five years ago or five years later, you've always been in my heart and have never left."

As Li Yanzhou listened to her words, a pang of jealousy rose in his nose, and his heart began to ache involuntarily.

"sorry……"

He suddenly recalled that first afternoon when he sent men to break into her house, ransack it, and forcibly abduct her.

It hurts so much, his heart.

She must have been terrified at that time.

If he hadn't done that, if he had just hugged her...

That……

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

Li Yanzhou closed his eyes, sighed for a long time, then opened them again, murmuring to himself,

"Luo Tingwei, do you know..."

"The greatest fortune of my life was meeting you on that day, in that year. And the greatest misfortune of my life was hurting you. Your name is etched in both my fortune and misfortune. Would you... forgive me for the part of my life that I didn't choose correctly?"

It started raining again outside the window, and the sound of rain immediately enveloped the entire ward. Every drop that fell into my ears was so clear.

Seeing that she remained silent, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

“Weiwei…”

Just as the man was about to speak, she suddenly interrupted him, "Don't speak, kiss me."

"ah?"

Li Yanzhou was stunned for a moment, then looked at her somewhat at a loss.

But then Luo Tingwei smiled slyly, "What are you standing there for?"

"Give me a kiss, and I'll forgive you."

Bang bang bang.

His heart nearly jumped out of his chest when he heard her words.

...

When Mo Sen pushed the door open, he stood there for two seconds, then silently pulled the door back a little.

What is he doing?

Mo Sen dared not think any further; only one sentence flashed through his mind—

Oh no, the boss is about to lose his mind in the hospital.

Besides, the lady is also injured.

However, the doctor said it's not a big problem.

The doctor also said that in his more than 20 years of medical practice, this was the first time he had seen such a miracle—to survive an explosion with only minor injuries. It was truly a blessing from God.

Mansur was in a terrible state; he was blown to pieces. It took half a day just to collect the remains, and even now, they still haven't found half an arm.

About a month later, the doctor gave her a final assessment, and Luo Tingwei was able to be discharged from the hospital.

Li Yanzhou personally drove to pick her up, bringing a large bouquet of roses with him.

The card read, "Dawn & Love".

Dawn and love.

It symbolizes a new beginning.

"Honey, where do you want to go?"

Li Yanzhou gripped the steering wheel, wearing dark sunglasses, the lenses reflecting the exquisite, flawless face of the woman beside him.

Aren't you going home?

Luo Tingwei sniffed the roses in her arms softly, a slight smile playing on her lips. "You've been holding back for so long, you clearly really want to, so don't ask me anymore."

Li Yanzhou frowned and rolled his eyes. "Do you think I'm that thirsty? It's broad daylight."

Luo Tingwei was both amused and exasperated, and couldn't help but tease her.

"President Li, when you were being a beast, you didn't care about day or night."

"Please shut up."

"oh."

...

Looking at the increasingly unfamiliar scenery outside the window, Luo Tingwei couldn't help but ask curiously, "Aren't we going home? Where are we going?"

It's neither going back to the Dark Sea Villa nor to the old house; it's a completely new direction.

Li Yanzhou snorted lightly, "Don't ask, you'll know when we get there."

Finally, the car entered a residential area in the city center, continued driving, and finally stopped in front of a small villa.

"arrive."

Li Yanzhou personally got out of the car to open the door for her and gestured for her to enter, saying, "Please, Princess."

Luo Tingwei, unsure of his intentions, got out of the car with some skepticism.

Looking at the little house in front of her, she turned to him and asked, "What does this mean?"

Li Yanzhou took the roses from her and smiled, "From now on, we'll live here."

"Hmm? They're not living in the big villa anymore."

Luo Tingwei blinked curiously.

Li Yanzhou shook his head, his voice full of disdain, "That place has bad feng shui and is in a remote location. I won't live there anymore."

Um……

After all, every corner of the Dark Sea Villa was evidence of his crimes of forcibly taking her from her.

There's a sinful basement and a stuffy, unventilated attic.

That scoundrel is very guilty.

Fearing that his beloved wife would be reminded of those unhappy moments if she lived there, he simply chose to avoid seeing her.

A new beginning naturally means everything has to be changed.

The servants were also dismissed. Having so many servants around was an eyesore and interfered with my time with my wife.

He bought the entire villa.

Now that they live here, they can stay undisturbed, with only him and her.

Li Yanzhou thought, this is what normal married life should be like.

He will learn to take care of her, and he will learn many, many things.

Li Yanzhou took her hand and led her upstairs.

The sunlight shone on them, warm and comforting.
