Chapter 144: Fainted with Excitement



The last cooperation failed, so Liu Jin went to the other company again.

The same girl from last time greeted her, "Hello, Mr. Liu, nice to see you again."

"Hello."

Liu Jin had just smiled when he was suddenly bumped into by someone, and then he felt a heat on his back.

Her white coat was instantly stained with a large coffee stain.

The person who bumped into her was a girl wearing a sweatshirt. She looked very young and should be a college graduate.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean it!"

The girl was so scared that she was about to cry. She definitely couldn't afford to pay for such expensive clothes.

Liu Jin thought that the girl was about the same age as Liu Huanyi, so he smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay, you can go."

“I’m so sorry!”

"It's okay, it's just a piece of clothing."

The girl apologized repeatedly but had to leave because she was in a hurry to go to work.

Liu Jin looked at the dirt on his body and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Mr. Liu, how about I go shopping for new clothes with you?"

Liu Jin took a look at the clothes. They were too dirty to wear and looked very funny.

Everyone around her looked at her, and suddenly a handkerchief was handed to her.

"Wipe it first."

It was Xu Chuxiao's voice.

Liu Jin didn't dare to look up, but there was no way to avoid this situation. The person was standing in front of her, and Xu Chuxiao's leather shoes were in her eyes. In the end, she could only bite the bullet and take the handkerchief.

"Thanks."

"It's you?" Xu Chuxiao recognized Liu Jin at a glance. Ever since he read the note, he had been thinking about what happened back then over and over again, so Liu Jin's face was unknowingly deeply imprinted in his mind.

As soon as we met, I thought of you immediately.

"It was you who left me the note in the first place. It was you who said that the person I was looking for was dead!"

Hearing his firm tone, Liu Jin knew he couldn't escape and could only nod.

"It's me."

Xu Chuxiao trembled all over, grabbed Liu Jin's wrist and asked, "Why do you say she is dead? Have you seen her? Do you know where she is?"

As if he was too excited, Xu Chuxiao breathed heavily and held Liu Jin's hand more and more tightly.

His abnormal behavior had attracted the attention of passers-by. Liu Jin was thinking of what excuse to use to get away with it when Xu Chuxiao suddenly fell to the ground, holding his heart.

Liu Jin squatted down to check on Xu Chuxiao's condition while taking out his cell phone to call 120.

Please don’t let anything happen, Liu Jin kept repeating to himself.

Fortunately, the ambulance arrived quickly and the nurse asked for someone to accompany him. Liu Jin couldn't contact his family, so he had to go in person.

Thanks to the doctor's rescue, Xu Chuxiao was finally safe and sound, but was still in a coma.

Liu Jin sat beside the hospital bed, looking at Xu Chuxiao's pale face, with mixed emotions.

The doctor said that Xu Chuxiao had suddenly experienced extreme sorrow and joy, which led to him being so excited that he fainted.

So, he really cared about herself, even if it was just any news related to her.

After an unknown amount of time, Liu Jin fell asleep leaning against the bed, and suddenly his hand was grabbed in his dream.

When she opened her eyes, she found that it was Xu Chuxiao who woke up.

Before she could call a doctor, Xu Chuxiao couldn't wait to ask, "Is she...really dead?"

Liu Jin felt a pang of bitterness in his heart, and answered irrelevantly, "Why are you so persistent in finding her?"

Xu Chuxiao gradually let go of her hand and slowly lay down. His throat was like a bellows with air leaking from all sides, making tired sounds.

"I feel guilty towards her, and I want to find her and make it up to her."

"I don't expect her to forgive me, I just want to find her and see if she is doing well."

"I miss her, I really do."

Every word is full of affection and every sentence is full of guilt.

Liu Jin felt a lump in his throat when he heard this and turned his head away quietly so that Xu Chuxiao wouldn't notice.

"So I beg you, if you have any news about her, please tell me, okay? Even if it's news of her death, give me a definite answer."

Xu Chuxiao was not as excited as before, and his fragile state looked more like begging.

Liu Jin made up his mind and decided to tell him that she was the person he was looking for.

But just as she opened her mouth, she heard hurried footsteps coming from the corridor, and then the door was pushed open.

"Mr. Xu——!"

The person who came was Xu Chuxiao's assistant. He ran to Xu Chuxiao's bed and said, "The Xu family already knows that you are in the hospital, so they sent me to check on you first."

"Heh." Xu Chuxiao turned his back. "They don't care about me at all. They think I've brought shame to the Xu family."

The assistant pushed his glasses, not knowing how to persuade him.

"Mr. Xu, in fact, you have done so many things to find someone over the years, and the Xu family saw it all but did not stop you. This time it really got out of hand, and you were even admitted to the hospital. You really didn't care about your health."

Liu Jin felt very sad when he heard this. What on earth did Xu Chuxiao do?

"They don't need to worry about it! I have completed the family's KPI every year, and I have earned every penny I should have earned!"

The assistant interrupted, "Not only in this regard, you have been..."

"I can do whatever I want with the rest of the time. I just want to find her... I won't be able to rest in peace until I find her."

Xu Chuxiao clutched the bed sheet tightly and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

Liu Jin looked at his stubborn appearance and didn't know what to say.

The assistant sighed, "But the Xu family has already issued a death order, ordering you not to make trouble again, otherwise——"

"Otherwise what?" Xu Chuxiao sneered, "I don't care about those things, take them if you want."

Seeing that he would not listen to the advice, the assistant looked around helplessly, and then noticed Liu Jin sitting next to him, "Madam, are you the one who brought Mr. Xu to the hospital?"

Faced with the assistant's scrutinizing gaze, Liu Jin felt very uncomfortable and nodded with difficulty.

"Thank you for your hard work. Who are you to Mr. Xu?"

Liu Jin gave an ambiguous answer.

“We just met by chance.”

"What a coincidence." The assistant repeated, "I'm so sorry to have wasted your time. Are you in a hurry to leave? Do you want me to take you there?"

Liu Jin was about to leave, so he quickly stood up and said, "No need to see me off. I can leave by myself."

"Okay, then take your time."

The assistant opened the door, and it was obvious that he was trying to get rid of the person.

Liu Jin was about to go out when he heard Xu Chuxiao say, "Wait!"

Xu Chuxiao sat up and pulled out the infusion needle with such force, then he jumped out of bed like a whirlwind and ran towards Liu Jin, grabbing her arm and refusing to let her go.

"Tell me, please tell me the truth!"

Liu Jin looked at Xu Chuxiao, then at the aggressive assistant. Not wanting Xu Chuxiao to be bothered by the past, he said with determination, "Actually, the person you're looking for is my good friend."

"No wonder... I always feel like you look familiar." Xu Chuxiao murmured softly, "Where is she now?"

"She's dead. She came to see me a long time ago, and we reminisced about our childhood together. Not long after that, she died of illness."

When Liu Jin mentioned the word "death", his voice was very light.

But the light in Xu Chuxiao's eyes went out almost instantly.
