Chapter 671 Shen Qing, I'm Sorry
What kind of people had Lu Tingchuan not seen in his life? Humans, demons, devils, and gods, all kinds of people. People like Shen Qing, who wanted everything but had nothing, were the last people who should appear in his life.
Once someone who shouldn't be there shows up, they become the most unavoidable existence in life.
Such an ordinary person turned his life upside down, making him make one mistake after another, leaving him full of resentment, unbearable pain and endless regret.
Shen Qing had unknowingly occupied a very important position in his heart, as if nine-tenths of his heart belonged to this woman.
Asking him to give up on her would be heartbreaking.
Lu Tingchuan would never say that he was a good person. He admitted that he was hypocritical, vicious, selfish, and had a strong sense of jealousy. He liked to possess and destroy at the same time.
He couldn't imagine that if he suddenly lost "Shen Qing" in his life, would his future still have any meaning? He would never find another person like Shen Qing, let alone love someone else as much as he loved Shen Qing.
Just like the more than 150 days that Shen Qing escaped, everyone said he was crazy, and five months was already the limit.
Shen Qing was disgusted by the smell of cigarettes. Lu Tingchuan stayed in the stairwell for a long time, smelled his body, and returned to the ward only after making sure that there was no smell of cigarettes.
Looking at Shen Qing sleeping quietly, Lu Tingchuan felt irritated and wanted to smoke again.
The scene of Shen Qing disfigured by the glass kept lingering in his mind.
Shen Qing longs for a life where ordinary people respect each other, but Lu Tingchuan has seen too much intrigue and deception. In his world, there are only superiors and inferiors, and there is never equality.
The two people are of extreme high and low. Logically, they should not have any intersection, but God made them meet, and their relationship became a dead end.
Lu Tingchuan placed the information on the bedside table and said to Shen Qing, "Shen Qing, I've found out everything. I'm not a human being. I'm the biggest idiot in the world. I can even kill my own flesh and blood and make them into specimens. I know exactly what kind of courage and character you have, but I still wrongly accused you..."
"Shen Qing, you've been sleeping for 19 days. Don't you want to see how miserable I am? I really regret it."
"I'm sorry, Shen Qing." The last five words were choked out.
Time passed minute by minute, and the only sounds in the quiet ward were the sounds of medical equipment and Lu Tingchuan's heavy breathing.
Shen Qing, who was lying on the hospital bed, made a slight sound that could not be heard unless you listened carefully, but Lu Tingchuan noticed it.
"Shen Qing..."
After a while, Shen Qing opened her dry lips and spoke with difficulty, "I never thought... Mr. Lu, there would be a day... when I would say sorry. Would it be any use?"
"Mr. Lu... it must be hard to kill your own flesh and blood... but I don't think you... would feel much, after all, that child was not dug out of your belly... you can't understand that kind of pain, let alone the despair of having someone press your neck while watching your child being soaked in specimen equipment... you will never... never be able to empathize with them..." Shen Qing began to sob as he finished tremblingly.
She hadn't taken off the gauze on her eyes yet. When she thought of the child, she couldn't help but burst into tears, soaking the gauze wrapped around her eyes.
Lu Tingchuan wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a single word. It felt like there was a fishbone stuck in his throat, blocking all the words he had been thinking about all night.
Seeing that the gauze on Shen Qing's eyes was a little wet, he said: "Your eyes haven't fully recovered yet, you can't cry. The doctor said that if you cry too much, your eyes will become completely blind."
Shen Qing couldn't help biting her lower lip and asked sarcastically, "You don't want me to go blind, right?"
Lu Tingchuan said "hmm".
"That's right. After all, I was a stand-in from the beginning. My face looks like hers, and my eyes look like hers..."
The "she" Shen Qing mentioned was Shen Zhichu.
What Shen Qing didn't know was that Lu Tingchuan had long since stopped treating her as a substitute for Shen Zhichu. Since when did Shen Qing completely replace Shen Zhichu? When he looked at her face, he never thought of Shen Zhichu again.
Moreover, the part of Shen Qing's face that is least like Shen Zhichu is the eyes.
Shen Qing knew that she could not die, and for the sake of the people who loved her, she had to remain in this endless hell without salvation. She clearly felt that the real purgatory on earth had just begun, and Lu Tingchuan was the executioner who tortured her.
Lu Tingchuan called a doctor to examine Shen Qing, and he himself temporarily left this depressing place.
The doctor removed the gauze from Shen Qing's eyes, pried open her eyelids, and carefully examined her eyeballs. "Does it hurt?"
Shen Qing could already see. She looked at the doctor in front of her, the doctor who had performed surgery on her that day.
She begged him desperately on the operating table to save the baby in her belly, but in the end, he raised the scalpel and cut open her belly. She didn't even have time to see the baby because it died beside her.
