Chapter 53: On Track Do you still want to be with me?
Lu Wangshan's injuries were not serious, thanks to the Cullinan's high and crash-resistant chassis. The moment the front of the car crashed, Lu Wangshan was protected by the airbag that popped out.
The hospital conducted a comprehensive examination and found a mild concussion and two broken ribs, but fortunately there was no blood accumulation in the chest cavity, and some minor bruises on the body.
It is really a blessing to have suffered such minor injuries in such a car accident.
On the contrary, Xiang Yin was tormented by the intense emotional ups and downs of the afternoon. He forced himself to rush to the hospital, but fainted after hearing the doctor say that there was no serious problem.
Lu Chengjun hugged his wife and rushed his son off the hospital bed.
The doctor gave Xiang Yin emergency treatment and gave him glucose after he woke up. It was a very stressful day.
Because of the bruises, Lu Wangshan had bandages wrapped around his skin and his head. Although they were not serious, they looked scary.
He just sat on the sofa next to the hospital bed, watching his father hugging Ms. Xiang Yin and asking about her well-being, with no intention of caring about his son who had just been in a car accident.
Soon, Lu Shiyue and Xiang Wu's family also arrived.
Lu Shiyue still cares about him the most.
When I saw his appearance, I was so scared that I couldn't even walk. I called out "Brother" several times in a trembling voice. Before I asked what was wrong, tears came down.
Lu Wangshan really didn't know how Lu Shiyue, who was over 1.9 meters tall, could have so many tears.
He lazily teased, "Are you mourning for your brother?"
The frail Ms. Xiang Yin immediately picked up a pillow and threw it hard at him: "You bastard! Are you trying to piss off your mother to death?"
Lu Chengjun was also tired and waved his hand at him: "Go away, you two little brats, get out of here! Don't bother your mother!"
“…”
Lu Shiyue helped Lu Wangshan walk out. His legs were not injured, but his ribs were broken and he felt some pain when breathing. He also felt dizzy due to the concussion.
Lu Shiyue's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly: "Brother, are you hurting anywhere?"
"Don't worry, it's okay."
"But you're covered in so much gauze. Did you bleed a lot?"
Lu Wangshan said with a smile: "None of the injuries I suffered during the competition were as serious as yours."
Lu Shiyue carefully observed the gauze and found that there was indeed no blood seeping out. He finally felt relieved, but he couldn't help but curse: "Those unscrupulous media outlets are going too far!"
Lu Wangshan raised his eyebrows, then took out his mobile phone to look at the various news items that were hot on the Internet.
Some media even began to worry whether Lu Shiyue would quit the Beijing team and return home to take over the company.
Lu Wangshan made a phone call and after asking about the situation, he ordered that the disorderly reports on the Internet be cleaned up.
Lu Wangshan’s phone was bombarded with messages and phone calls, and he didn’t have time to reply, so he called his grandfather first.
The two old men were indeed frightened, and they angrily scolded him again because they couldn't get through to his parents on the phone.
"They were also frightened and didn't have time to check their phones."
Lu Wangshan smiled faintly and explained, "Don't worry, you two don't have to come to the hospital. It's not serious. I'll be home soon."
…
Lu Wangshan didn't like staying in the hospital. He hated the pungent smell of disinfectant and also hated being watched by a group of people like a monkey. So after making sure that he was fine, he returned to his old house.
I was only prescribed some painkillers, and a doctor would come to my house every day to apply medicine and bandage the wound.
Xiang Yin had classes the next morning, so after dinner he went back to the apartment with Lu Chengjun.
Lu Wangshan disliked Lu Shiyue's noisy behavior and urged him to go on a date with Ruan Zhao.
He and Leo were the only ones left in the huge mansion.
Lu Wangshan went to bed early that day, but suddenly heard sobbing coming from beside him while he was half asleep, mixed with the high-pitched "tapping" sound of Leo's footsteps on the floor.
When Lu Wangshan opened his eyes and saw Yun Tan in the dim light, he was stunned for a long time, and even suspected that everything he saw was a dream.
It wasn't until Leo licked the palm of his hand, leaving a wet mark, that he realized it was all real.
At this moment, he didn't care about his current relationship with Yun Tan, nor did he care about how he was still planning how to make Yun Tan realize his true feelings.
Subconsciously, I whispered in the softest voice: "Xiao Tan?"
Yuntan looked up with tears in her eyes, her eyes were red and there were tear marks on her fair cheeks.
As soon as they looked at each other, her lips turned down instantly and she let out a few sobs. She looked so pitiful.
Lu Wangshan felt as if his heart was being squeezed hard.
It hurts much more than a broken rib.
But it wasn't just heartache, there was also a bit of surprise and inappropriate joy.
Yun Tan almost never exposes her vulnerable state in front of others. She is used to handling everything on her own. This is the first time Lu Wangshan has seen her with such an expression.
"Why did you come here suddenly? When did you come?"
"I saw on the news that you had a car accident and so I returned to Beijing. I just arrived." She said with tears in her eyes as she stood up and carefully checked the injuries on Lu Wangshan's body.
Lu Wangshan tilted his head back, making it easier for her to pull at the collar of his pajamas: "How did you know I was here?"
"I called Wuwu, and Leo opened the door for me."
“…”
Why are there so many traitors around him?
Lu Wangshan laughed and patted the back of her head, "Don't worry, it's not serious."
Yun Tan showed that extremely aggrieved expression again, wiped away the tears, lowered his head and said: "Don't lie to me, Wu Wu said you were seriously injured."
“…”
Xiang Wu really never forgets her clever ideas.
Lu Wangshan showed Yun Tan his wounds one by one, intending to make her feel at ease, but unexpectedly it brought more tears.
Lu Wangshan never thought that one day he would be so busy wiping Yun Tan's tears that he didn't have time to wipe them away. His heart softened even more.
He called softly, "Xiao Tan."
"Um?"
"Why do you want to come back? Didn't we break up?" Lu Wangshan's voice was very gentle, and such words from his mouth did not make people feel that it was an embarrassing question.
Yuntan lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Lu Wangshan then asked, "You're worried about me, aren't you?"
Yun Tan's tears rolled down again, and Lu Wangshan realized that the phrase "pearls broken off the string" used in the Chinese textbooks to describe tears was not an exaggeration at all.
She choked and lowered her head, not daring to look at him: "I'm afraid that you have encountered these things because of me again. I'm afraid that I have hurt you like this again."
Lu Wangshan asked with amusement: "What are you talking about?"
Yun Tan didn't dare to look at him. Her neck was bent by guilt and she couldn't stand up.
"Wuwu told me before that after I went abroad that year, you became seriously ill and were even admitted to the ICU. She said a master said this was a great calamity in your life, and if you can't get over it... it all depends on whether you can let it go."
Yun Tan sobbed and finally lowered her head and buried it in her palms, tears overflowing from her fingers again. "I'm sorry, Lu Wangshan, I never knew. It was me who hurt you. You shouldn't have known me. I've never been good to you."
Lu Wangshan was confused for a moment.
He did not believe in fate, but only believed that man could conquer nature, so naturally he did not take those remarks about fate to heart.
All the things that could not be expressed in the past due to circumstances or self-esteem were finally vented in this quiet and dim night.
Yuntan seemed to be shedding all the tears that he had not had time to shed in the first half of his life.
"Alright, alright." Lu Wangshan held her in his arms. "If you cry any more, your eyes will hurt tomorrow."
Lu Wangshan wanted to go into the bathroom and get her a hot towel to put on her eyes, so he lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
"You you——" Yun Tan hiccuped, his eyes wide open, revealing a bit of naivety, "You can walk?!"
"Didn't I tell you it's not serious? It's just a broken rib, not a broken leg."
He took a half-dried hot towel and put it on Yuntan's eyes: "Close your eyes."
"What?" Her voice was soft after crying.
"Apply a hot compress, and it won't swell up tomorrow."
So just like that, Lu Wangshan sat on the edge of the bed, tapping Yun Tan's head with one hand and holding a towel in the other.
Just the right warmth spread along her thin eyelids, and Yun Tan felt a little dizzy again. Her nose was filled with the pleasant scent of Lu Wangshan, so familiar that it made her heart beat violently, yet so peaceful.
"Xiao Tan, listen to me." Lu Wangshan suddenly said.
Everything in Yuntan's eyes was dark. He couldn't see him, but could hear his voice.
"The master my grandmother consulted did say those things before, but I never took them to heart. They weren't worth mentioning. If the master's words couldn't be changed, then there would be no point in a person striving to change his fate. I wouldn't be alive today."
Lu Wangshan said in a low voice, "So, don't think that you harmed me. It's not that serious. It can't be said. If I really want to say it, then I am lucky to be here now. It's almost like I've survived a disaster. It's more like shelter."
"Do you understand?"
Yuntan nodded.
Lu Wangshan took off the towel. Yun Tan's eyes were red and her eyelashes were wet.
He looked at the time and it was already one in the morning.
"Did you get any sleep on the plane?"
"No." How could I fall asleep?
Lu Wangshan asked with a smile, "Aren't you sleepy?"
"I feel sleepy now."
"Then go to sleep first and deal with the rest tomorrow." Lu Wangshan lifted the quilt and naturally made room for Yun Tan to sleep.
Yun Tan was stunned for a moment: "...Should I sleep here?"
"Just make do with it. I still have to put down quilts in other rooms. I won't bother with that."
Yun Tan was reluctant to let a sick person suffer with him, and also blamed Lu Wangshan for his very natural posture, as if he didn't realize anything was wrong.
Yuntan didn't act any more and just took a quick shower and lay down.
The bed is two meters and five meters wide, two people lying on it will not feel crowded at all, and there is a very wide safety distance between them.
Yuntan lay straight on the bed, and suddenly couldn't fall asleep again.
For fear of disturbing Lu Wangshan's rest, he turned over very gently.
She lay on her side on the bed, her back to Lu Wangshan, her mind and eyes empty.
Until Lu Wangshan's voice suddenly sounded behind him——
"Can't sleep?"
Yun Tan was startled and turned around to look: "Did I disturb you?"
Lu Wangshan put his arms around her waist and pulled her over. The gap between them instantly disappeared. Yun Tan's back stiffened as she felt the warmth coming from Lu Wangshan's chest.
"No, I couldn't sleep either." Lu Wangshan paused and said, "I'm a little happy."
"What?" Yun Tan turned his head again and found that the two of them were very close, almost touching his nose, so he remained calm and even held his breath.
Lu Wangshan looked into her bright eyes in the darkness and said softly, "Xiao Tan, I'm very happy that you can come."
Yuntan was slightly stunned.
My heart beat faster because of his straightforward words.
The next second, Lu Wangshan suddenly held her head, pulled her closer, and kissed her lips.
Yun Tan opened his eyes wide in surprise and forgot to refuse, allowing Lu Wangshan to become more and more presumptuous.
But in fact, everything happened naturally. The two people who were most physically compatible had their first physical contact after several months, and it was even difficult to tell who took the initiative.
It's too easy for a gun to go off accidentally.
Yuntan turned around at some point and was held tightly in his arms.
Lu Wangshan pried open her lips and teeth with an almost ferocious attitude, entwining his tongue with hers and refusing to let go. Their hot breaths blended together, and his hand was still behind her head. His broad palm wrapped around the back of her neck and head, not allowing her to retreat at all.
Yuntan was almost in a state of despair. She even forgot to breathe. On the verge of suffocation, she subconsciously patted his chest, but then she thought of his injury and barely stopped herself.
She didn't dare move for fear of hurting him.
Lu Wangshan was about to roll over, but his fragile ribs finally yelled for him to stop.
He was caught off guard, pinned to the spot by the pain, and gasped.
Yun Tan was startled and sat up in a panic: "Are you okay? Is it hurting somewhere? In the bones or on the skin? Is there any bleeding?"
Her hair was messy, her cheeks were rosy, and her lips were moist.
Lu Wangshan ignored her anxious look and questions, but just patted her cheek and uttered two words in a hoarse voice -
"Come up."
The atmosphere has reached this point, and if I stop for that little pain, I would not be a man.
Lu Wangshan understood what it meant to die under the peony flowers. Even if his legs were broken today, he would not stop.
"You...you...this isn't okay, is it?"
Under the stimulation of anxiety, shame and surging desire, Yuntan's skin turned a highly saturated pink, like a peach waiting to be picked.
Lu Wangshan directly lifted her legs and exerted force on her base, then pulled her into himself.
Yuntan felt dizzy and didn't know how it had come to this.
She thought confusedly that her relationship with Lu Wangshan was becoming chaotic again.
Lu Wangshan went too far. She leaned on his shoulder and started crying again. She had not experienced sex in a long time and she broke down easily. His legs were soaked.
He panted, his voice trembling with pain spreading through his chest, and said hoarsely, "It seems that my baby misses me too."
Yuntan's scalp felt numb and his whole body felt like it had been electrocuted.
She put her arms around his neck, not knowing whether to hold him tight or push him away.
In the pain, Lu Wangshan felt a sense of grievance that he thought he had already digested, as if a lost child had finally found his parents and finally dared to righteously get angry at his parents for not finding him for so long.
He suddenly raised his hand and swung it down with force, as if to punish him.
Yun Tan pressed her lips against his neck, unwilling to bite, and endured the continuous palm strikes.
In the confusion, she recalled what Xiang Wu had said before, and was once again overwhelmed by overwhelming guilt. Her tears took on a different meaning, and she sobbed and kept saying, Lu Wangshan, I'm sorry.
Those grievances were finally gradually digested.
Lu Wangshan placed his hand on her lower back, put his cheek against hers, tilted his head and kissed her cheek, and asked softly, "Are you tired?"
With sweat and tears mixed together, Yun Tan's long hair stuck to her cheeks in a messy manner. She had no strength left, but still choked and said, "I'm not tired."
The sense of sacrifice made Lu Wangshan even more crazy.
…
The next day.
Yuntan was awakened by the crackling sound of rain outside the window, the howling of the wind, and the change of weather.
Leo couldn't play on the lawn, so he ran upstairs to find them and licked Yuntan's palm outside the quilt.
"Shh." She whispered.
Then he carefully got up from the bed, endured the pain in his back and leg cramps, and took Leo downstairs so as not to wake up Lu Wangshan.
This seemed to be the first time she woke up before Lu Wangshan.
Yuntan put on his coat and took out the breakfast box prepared for Leo from the refrigerator with ease. He heated it up and let it cool before giving it to Leo.
She squatted beside it, stroking its fur with her hands. After her sexual desire was oversatisfied, she felt lazy all over, her mind was confused, and she couldn't make any sense of it.
After seeing Leo finish breakfast, Yuntan went upstairs again to see if Lu Wangshan had woken up.
As soon as she opened the bedroom door, she saw him getting up. Yun Tan hurried forward and asked, "Why are you up?"
"To the bathroom."
"I'll help you go."
She took Lu Wangshan's arm and put it on her shoulder, then hugged his waist.
Lu Wangshan actually didn't feel that much pain, and it wasn't his legs that hurt. Instead, his side waist was pinched a little because of the posture. But he didn't say anything. He just cooperated and leaned against Yun Tan, moving step by step towards the bathroom.
Yun Tan's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he felt that he was not in the best condition this morning as he was last night. "Does it hurt to walk? Was it because I was too…"
Having said this, she suddenly stopped.
Lu Wangshan lowered his eyes. From this angle, he could just see the way she pursed her lips and the ambiguous traces under her collar.
He raised his eyebrows and asked slowly, "Last night, too what?"
Yuntan didn't say anything.
After sending Lu Wangshan to the bathroom, she was about to leave, but just as she took a step, he stopped her: "I can't stand steadily."
Yuntan quickly stood back up.
Although these were two bodies that were very familiar to each other, Yun Tan felt extremely awkward at the moment. After finally enduring that minute, Lu Wangshan said he wanted to take a shower.
"You can't wash now. You have so many wounds on your body that you can't get wet."
"It feels uncomfortable. I'm sweating too much." He said, looking at her.
Yuntan seemed to hear a silent accusation - Who am I sweating for?
“…”
Yun Tan paused for a moment and asked in a negotiating tone, "Then I'll wipe you with a towel. This is all I can do for now. Please bear with it."
Lu Wangshan was stunned for a moment, then he went back to bed obediently.
When Yun Tan wrung out the towel, he had already taken off his shirt. Finally, he could see the several scratches and bruises between his strong and superior muscles. Yun Tan completely abandoned his shameless lustful thoughts and was left with only heartache.
She suddenly remembered the time when they were together.
Once, Yun Tan had a fever and went to the hospital. She took antipyretics but the fever didn't go down. She was groaning with fever at night, so Lu Wangshan used a towel to wipe her limbs to cool her down physically.
Yun Tan wiped it very carefully, going back and forth to the bathroom to wring out the towel. After wiping the upper body, Lu Wangshan took over and wiped it himself.
"Yuntan." He suddenly spoke.
She paused, vaguely aware of something, her heart skipped a beat, and she said softly, "Yeah."
"How do you want to define what happened last night?" Lu Wangshan kept his head down as he said this, and did not stop wiping.
Yuntan didn't know what to say, nor did he understand what he wanted to say.
The raindrops outside the window seemed to hit her heart, causing ripples on the water.
"You don't have to take what Xiang Wu said to you seriously, but what I want to tell you is that if you keep coming and going as you please here, you are intentionally hurting me and causing me pain."
After Lu Wangshan woke up, he regretted that he should not have ruined his original plan because of a momentary impulse and infatuation.
So he tried every possible way to get everything back on track.
Unexpectedly, Yun Tan suddenly lowered his head and whispered, "Lu Wangshan, do you still want to be with me?"
