Chapter 77
It would have been fine if Fu Chuqing hadn't said anything, but as soon as he said "I'm sorry", Qiao Yanrou burst into tears, and her frail figure was very touching.
Something must have happened to Ji Yuanchen, that's why...
Fu Chu wiped away the tears on her cheeks with trembling hands. Because the spiritual system was forcibly separated, her body had reached its limit. This was the state after the healing technique.
No matter how sad Qiao Yanrou was, she helped him back to the flower shop and let him lie on the bed. She could see that Fu Chuqing was seriously injured. She had never seen him so fragile.
It took him a lot of effort to even open his eyes. Qiao Yanrou did not disturb him to rest and followed Le Liu out of the hall.
"He insisted on coming to see you, so you... take care of him for a few days." Le Liu was very angry at Boss Fu's stubbornness. No matter what he said, he insisted on coming to see Qiao Yanrou.
Qiao Yanrou nodded slowly: "What happened to Ji Yuanchen?" Why hasn't he come back yet?
"I heard from Boss Fu that Brother Chen was torn to pieces by a group of invisible mutant monsters." Le Liu had no choice but to tell her about it.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yanrou seemed to be severely hit. Her face turned pale in an instant and her whole slender body shook. Le Liu quickly supported her and let her sit down.
Le Liu looked at her, who seemed to want to cry but was holding it back. He felt sorry for her but didn't know how to comfort her.
Brother Shen is gone... This is news that no one can accept.
Although Qiao Yanrou tried to suppress her sadness, tears still welled up in her eyes. She had never expected something like this to happen...
Le Liu advised her: "Don't think too much, it's already late, go to bed early."
She nodded silently, letting the tears as big as beans drip onto her hands.
Le Liu sighed, stayed with her in the store for a while, and then left, wanting to let her be alone and quiet.
In the flower shop, she sat alone on a chair, thinking about every moment she had spent with Ji Yuanchen. Such a living person suddenly told her... he was gone.
Qiao Yanrou couldn't accept it. She lowered her head and cried for a long time, her eyes red.
She moved very quietly, walked into the room and carefully used her fingers to feel his breathing. Although his breath was weak, he was still alive.
Qiao Yanrou breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Fu Chuqing lying on the bed, who was dying. She wondered how powerful those invisible monsters must be to injure Fu Chuqing so badly.
When she thought of Ji Yuanchen, tears welled up in her eyes again.
"I'm fine."
Fu Chuqing slowly opened his eyes and reached out to hold her hand tightly. He knew the danger of stripping the spiritual system. It was not until that moment that he realized how greedy he was for Qiao Yanrou.
He...can't live without her.
Qiao Yanrou didn't let him raise his hand or use any force, and wiped the tears from her cheeks herself.
She asked softly, "Are you hungry?"
Fu Chuqing seemed to be taking a slow, deep breath: "I'm not hungry."
Qiao Yanrou still forced him to drink half a cup of warm water before letting him go to sleep.
That night, she slept in the next room. Usually no one slept in this room. Fu Chuqing had put a bed in it long ago.
Qiao Yanrou spread out the clean sheets and lay in bed, her mind always coming up with Ji Yuanchen's tenderness and pampering towards her.
She didn't want to believe he was gone.
But no matter how much she didn't want to believe it, she couldn't change the facts.
In the next few days, Ji Yuanchen still did not show up. She peeked outside the flower shop countless times, and each time there was disappointment in her eyes and she felt indescribably sad.
At this moment, in a certain crack in time and space, Ji Yuanchen and Shen Luohan stared at each other in silence.
After a moment, Ji Yuanchen cursed Fu Chuqing inwardly for being so cunning and scheming! He was actually still plotting to harm him.
"When did he get you in?" Ji Yuanchen always thought that he had accepted his fate and left, but he didn't expect to meet him after walking in this space-time crack for several hours.
"I went to see you that day. After you left, Fu Chuqing talked to me about cooperation. I didn't agree. I felt dizzy and had tinnitus. When I woke up, I was already here."
Chen Luohan was calm, after all, he had been alone for eighteen days.
Ji Yuanchen: “…” Fu Chuqing is too insidious!
Ji Yuanchen was trying to find a way out and asked Shen Luohan some questions until he heard Shen Luohan say that he had only been here for eighteen days.
These words made him frown. Ji Yuanchen knew very well that he and Qiao Yanrou had spent more than a year of sweet time after they got back together.
But he naturally believed what Shen Luohan said.
Suddenly he thought of something, and Ji Yuanchen almost gritted his teeth and cursed Fu Chuqing.
That scheming man! What a brilliant plan! He figured this rift in space and time wouldn't hold him back, so he used his growing mental strength to tear it open. Time here was different from time outside.
One hour in this space-time rift is equivalent to one day outside. After he gets out of this space-time rift, Qiao Yanrou probably won't even remember him.
Ji Yuan was so angry that he cursed Fu Chuqing several times and decided to settle the score with him after he got out of the space-time rift!
In the flower shop, Qiao Yanrou saw Fu Chuqing get up from the bed, his handsome features and pale face, so she hurried forward to help him.
"Don't get out of bed." The most important thing for him now is to have a good rest and heal his internal injuries.
"It's okay..." Fu Chu coughed lightly a few times and actually coughed up blood.
Qiao Yanrou was horrified and almost cried. He didn't look okay at all. She quickly helped him sit down and wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with a tissue.
"You...you are coughing up blood!" She stood there uncomfortably and wanted to find Le Liu to ask her to ask a healer to come over.
Fu Chuqing raised his hand and held her: "It's okay, it will be fine after a while." His tone was very weak.
Qiao Yanrou was afraid that something might happen to him, so she broke free from his hand and ran to find Le Liu.
Fu Chuqing was the only one left in the room. He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips. His body recovered faster than he expected, but he didn't know what the effect of the fusion of lightning ability mixed with mental power would be.
After a while, Qiao Yanrou brought Le Liu into the room, and Fu Chu leaned against the head of the bed, breathing lightly.
This scene made Qiao Yanrou feel distressed, and she tried hard not to cry.
Fu Chu gently held her hand: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Qiao Yanrou could only nod with a sob and stand aside watching the healer perform healing magic on him.
About half a month later, Fu Chuqing's health gradually improved, and Qiao Yanrou could finally breathe a sigh of relief. She would look outside the flower shop every day, hoping to see Ji Yuanchen like before, but she was always disappointed.
