Chapter 159 Lu Qingqing x Meng Yaozhu: Yangyang, the child is gone.
A silver snake cleaved through the deep night sky.
The heavy rain came unexpectedly.
Shi Yang was startled awake from his dream.
He clutched his rapidly beating heart, panting for breath.
The bedside lamp was turned on, and Ji Peiheng sat up: "What's wrong? Were you scared?"
Shi Yang glanced at the rain-soaked world outside the window; she was no longer so afraid of thunder and rain. But she had just had a nightmare.
In her dream, Lu gently bid her farewell, and she successfully became a war correspondent and went to the front lines.
Shi Yang looked up and watched the plane she was on take off. When it was halfway through the air, the plane suddenly billowed thick smoke and bright flames rose from the tail. The plane crashed into the sea like a bird with broken wings. A deafening explosion and a towering flame erupted at the same time.
Whenever Shi Yang recalls this scene, he can't help but gag by the bedside.
She was in poor spirits during the day, vomited violently while eating, and then had this strange dream after finally falling asleep.
"I dreamt that Qingqing had an accident."
She knew the dream was absurd, and Lu Qingqing stayed home and wouldn't be leaving the capital anytime soon.
But her heart was pounding like a drum, unable to calm down for a long time.
The last time I felt this distressed and my heart was when I thought something had happened to Ji Peiheng.
Even though it was already 9 p.m., she still had to call Lu Qingqing to confirm.
However, she couldn't get through to him on the phone for a long time, and Shi Yang's heart sank deeper and deeper.
"Pei Heng, could you help me find Qingqing? I'm worried something might have happened to her."
Ji Peiheng said nothing and immediately sent someone to make the contact.
After waiting for a while, Shi Yang got out of bed barefoot: "No, I have to go to the hospital to get checked out."
...
At nine o'clock in the evening, the hospital was brightly lit.
Meng Yaozhu was stiff all over, lacking any of her usual composure, and had been standing at the operating room door for a full two hours.
Secretary Jin handed him a bottle of water: "Mr. Meng, please sit down and rest for a while."
Meng Yaozhu acted as if he hadn't heard.
Secretary Jin sighed. Who could have known things would happen so suddenly? President Meng's mother was in a car accident, the driver died on the spot, and President Meng's mother was seriously injured. She had been in the emergency room for more than two hours.
Meng Yaozhu frowned, his body hunched slightly, and suddenly he felt dizzy.
He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if he were about to lose something important.
After a moment, his mind cleared, and his eyes continued to be fixed on the operating room.
Secretary Jin was standing by when he heard Mr. Meng's cell phone ring in his briefcase. He picked it up and glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number.
He glanced at the figure in front of him and then hung up the phone.
When I came back from the restroom, my phone rang again; it was the same unfamiliar number as before.
He said, "Mr. Meng, your phone is ringing."
"who?"
"It's an unfamiliar number."
Meng Yaozhu didn't even glance at her phone.
...
After leaving Ms. Jiang's hospital room, Shi Yang learned that Lu Qingqing had passed away a long time ago.
She rushed to her house and skillfully took out the spare key from under the doormat at Lu Qingqing's door.
After searching around, no one was home.
She called Wen Wanwan again. Wen Wanwan was out having fun with her friends. Upon hearing this, she said, "Sister-in-law, wait for me. I'll look for it with you."
After a pause, Shi Yang called Meng Yaozhu.
I hit several in a row.
It keeps showing an unanswered status.
Thinking of that dream sent a chill down her spine.
A pair of warm, large hands grasped her, and Ji Peiheng put his arm around her shoulder: "I've already asked someone to check the surveillance footage, don't worry."
"Yes, yes, I can't rush things. Maybe she just went shopping and her phone died. She'll be fine." Shi Yang repeated, biting her knuckles.
The rain continued throughout the night, with thunder rumbling incessantly in the clouds.
The hardest thing to endure is waiting.
Soon, Liao Nan called.
"Mr. Ji, Madam, we have news about Miss Lu."
...
Pale, desolate, hopeless.
This was the first expression Shi Yang saw on Lu Qingqing's face.
In the cold, damp space, on the chilly operating table, lay a figure with a faint breath.
A single incandescent light overhead illuminated the figure, making it appear faint and transparent.
The strong smell of blood at the tip of my nose almost made me vomit.
If Ji Peiheng hadn't been supporting her, Shi Yang would have almost lost her balance. She stood not far from Lu Qingqing, her figure swaying precariously.
Just a few steps away, her legs seemed to have no will to obey her, limp and powerless.
The person on the bed slowly turned towards Shi Yang, a crystal tear slowly sliding down Lu Qingqing's eye. She raised her lips, a kind of pale beauty.
Her voice was as light and ethereal as a cloud.
She said, "Yangyang, the child is gone."
Shi Yang's mind went blank for a moment. She struggled to approach her, reached out her hand, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Qingqing, don't be afraid, I'm here."
...
After three hours of emergency treatment, Meng's mother was finally out of danger.
Meng Yaozhu's visibly tense body relaxed for a moment.
Strangely, he still had difficulty breathing and his heart felt like it was floating in the air.
After Meng Yaozhu finished talking with the attending physician, Secretary Jin stood guard at the door: "President Meng, the business partner we talked to before was very angry because you broke your promise. He was furious on the phone."
"Let him vent his anger as he pleases, just ignore him for now."
Meng Yaozhu has been really busy lately. He wants to marry Lu Qingqing, but he knows the Meng family won't accept her. So he wants to spend most of his time on work. He wants to complete the company's listing as soon as possible and use his abilities to convince the Meng family so that they can shut up when he and Lu Qingqing are together!
Secretary Kim hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.
"Is there anything else?"
Secretary Kim said, "Your phone keeps ringing; that unknown number keeps calling."
"Give me."
Secretary Jin handed him the phone, and Meng Yaozhu dialed the number back.
No one answered the phone.
There were just too many things to do, and Meng Yaozhu didn't have the energy to deal with them anymore. He went downstairs to pay the bill.
"Make way! Make way!"
A sudden commotion arose at the entrance.
An ambulance with its siren blaring stopped at the gate, and several nurses carried a stretcher out of the vehicle.
It's so late, and someone still has an accident.
The King of Hell wants to take far too many people away.
Meng Yaozhu sighed and turned to walk towards the window.
He took a step and then abruptly stopped, as if he had seen a familiar face.
She is Lu Qingqing's best friend.
Who is that person on the stretcher?
As if answering a question from the depths of her heart, the woman cried out, "Lu Qingqing!"
"Qingqing! Open your eyes, please don't sleep!"
"Lu Qingqing!"
Meng Yaozhu turned around abruptly. Medical staff quickly carried a woman past him. The woman on the stretcher had one arm hanging down, and a bright pink bracelet on her wrist caught his eye.
It was just an ordinary bracelet, but it was so bright that he could barely open his eyes.
Lu Qingqing has one that is exactly the same!
The person on the stretcher—
He dared not think about it, because just thinking about it filled him with terror!
It seemed as if something was slipping out of his control.
