Chapter 47 Luo Shengtian's Unexpected Accident
This is?
Her heart skipped a beat.
Unfold the crumpled paper; the handwriting on it was crooked and messy, but it was undoubtedly Uncle Zhong's handwriting.
"Your father has had an accident and is in critical condition. We look forward to your return."
Those few words were enough to send a chill down Luo Tingwei's spine.
Did something happen to my father?
She held the paper, her whole hand trembling.
Intuition told her she had to go back immediately.
But Li Yanzhou wouldn't let her go easily.
At the same time, the man in the study also received a message from Coconut Grove Island.
Luo Shengtian fell from a great height while jet skiing, sustaining serious injuries and his life is in imminent danger.
The people of Coconut Grove Island begged Luo Tingwei to go back and see her father one last time.
Li Yanzhou rolled his eyes in disdain. This old man is quite the player.
Having a precious son to see her off in her final days is enough; now she's pretending to want to see her daughter.
Luo Shengtian's every move these days has been under his control.
His life on Coconut Island was incredibly comfortable; he indulged in eating, drinking, and having fun, and probably forgot long ago that he had a daughter who was left behind.
Li Yanzhou had no intention of leaking the news to Luo Tingwei, and acted as if nothing had happened.
Unexpectedly, there was a loud knocking on the door outside the study.
"Li Yanzhou! Li Yanzhou!"
It was Luo Tingwei's voice.
Just as I feared, the man quickly frowned, a fleeting glint of ferocity flashing in his eyes.
Upon opening the door, Luo Tingwei was greeted by a face as gentle as a spring breeze.
"What's wrong, baby?"
He stood up and walked towards her.
Luo Tingwei's eyes were red, and without saying a word, she knelt down before him.
"What's wrong? Get up first."
He was startled and reached out to help her, when he heard the woman's voice choked with sobs.
"Li Yanzhou, I beg you, please let me go back and see my father."
He understood perfectly well, but still feigned ignorance, and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
Luo Tingwei looked up and saw that Li Yanzhou was indeed unaware of this matter, but she couldn't care less about anything else now.
“My dad had an accident, something serious happened.”
After hearing her words, the man slowed his movements as he helped her up, becoming more distant.
"So what can you do if you go back? You're not a doctor."
Luo Tingwei was surprised that he could be so cold-blooded, and she couldn't help but feel a little more disheartened.
But at this moment, she couldn't back down; she had no choice but to bite the bullet and say...
"In case, I mean in case, something happens to him, I should at least go see him one last time."
As she said this, a wave of bitterness washed over her.
Who would have thought that she had fallen so far out of control, unable even to be by her father's side when he was in trouble.
"Who told you that?"
Unexpectedly, Li Yanzhou did not answer her directly, but instead changed the subject, his tone becoming questioning.
Luo Tingwei knew he would ask, she had thought of it before she came, but she couldn't care less about that now.
Tears welled up in her eyes. Uncle Zhong had risked his life to tell her the news, and she absolutely could not betray him by saying a single word.
The atmosphere became tense, so quiet you could almost hear her heartbeat.
The man looked down at her, his gaze sharp as a hawk's, focused on her face, as if deliberately scrutinizing her every unease.
"I'm waiting for your answer."
Seeing that she didn't speak, he put more pressure on her.
But the next second, the woman opposite him unexpectedly hugged one of his legs, buried her face in his leg and cried softly and tremblingly.
Li Yanzhou was caught off guard by her sudden move.
Tears quickly soaked his suit trousers, and he could feel the sticky liquid clinging to his skin.
In an instant, his heart almost melted.
"She's really something," the man cursed inwardly, his Adam's apple bobbing.
He couldn't help but lean down and cup her face in his hands, sighing half teasingly and half helplessly, "Alright, alright, I won't ask anymore."
He reached out and wiped the tears from her face.
"Stop crying, your face is all red."
Even so, he couldn't help but glance at it a few more times.
Like a wronged kitten, it evokes a slight urge to abuse it, tsk.
Sensing the change in his attitude, Luo Tingwei seized the opportunity and pleaded once more, "Then what about my father..."
Li Yanzhou, having been worn down by her persistence, finally relented and softened his tone, "Fine. I'll send someone to investigate. If it's true, I won't make things difficult for you."
"Go back to your room and calm down. You're too agitated; it's not good for you."
After the bell was rung, a maid quickly entered.
"Help her go back."
The man gave the order in a deep voice.
The maid responded and immediately went to help her up. Luo Tingwei looked back every few steps, wanting to try and get something more, but after opening and closing her red lips for a long time, she finally swallowed countless sighs and followed the maid out.
After she left, one of her subordinates came running.
Li Yanzhou lit a cigarette, rubbing his temples as he spoke calmly, "Go and find out what's going on."
"yes."
Two hours later, the person returned and whispered a few words in his ear, causing the man's brows to furrow suddenly.
absurd.
That's utterly absurd.
"Poor thing, baby..."
A pang of pity for her welled up in his heart.
"This world is far too cruel to you."
...
All afternoon, Luo Tingwei was worried about Luo Shengtian's situation.
She hoped that Li Yanzhou would have some humanity and let her go back. At worst, she could come back. She knew she couldn't escape, but right now she needed to stay by her father's side.
Cen An'an tried to persuade her, saying that if all else failed, she would go and see for her.
At that moment, the door to the room opened, and Li Yanzhou entered.
The man glanced at Cen An'an and said, "You go out first. I have something to say to her."
Cen An'an didn't dare to say anything more. She exchanged a glance with Luo Tingwei and walked towards the door.
Luo Tingwei felt uneasy and waited for him to speak first.
Soon, the sound of things being smashed came from inside.
Cen An'an heard a series of noises outside the door, and her heart clenched. Just as she was about to go in to check, Li Yanzhou came out from inside, his face gloomy and exuding a terrifying and murderous aura, which frightened her so much that she dared not approach.
As soon as he left, Cen An'an rushed inside, only to find Luo Tingwei sitting on the bed with a blank expression, looking terrified.
She threw all the clutter on the floor.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Cen An'an was so shocked she couldn't speak.
Even if Luo Tingwei's emotions are unstable right now, she wouldn't go so far as to smash things.
Undoubtedly, something Li Yanzhou said earlier had provoked her.
Just then, two bodyguards in black suddenly entered from outside the door, speaking in a harsh and cold tone.
"President Li said that if you want to leave, you can leave now; the plane is already waiting outside."
The bodyguard paused, then continued,
He also said that once you leave this room today, you will have nothing to do with him anymore.
