Chapter 10: Late Return 10
The rain fell softly, gradually soaking her whole body.
Her eyes were blurred, and she didn't know whether it was tears or rain hitting her face. The strong wind swept over her body, making her shiver with cold.
My feet were frozen red as they touched the ground, the soles of my feet were stinging with cold, and my hair was stuck to my face from the rain, making me look extremely disheveled.
Lin Xu stood behind a tree in the distance, listening to the woman calling his name over and over again, his chest feeling stuffy and unable to breathe.
He clenched his fists, and every time he wanted to take a step forward to hug her, a voice would always ring in his ears.
He suddenly hated his own incompetence and felt that he was not worthy of the passionate love that Fu Yin brought him.
He is a coward.
"Lin Xu! If you don't come out, I'll just stand here. I don't believe you're really that cruel!"
"I don't understand what's wrong with wanting to be with you!"
"In the past, at the Lin family, we had to avoid suspicion because we were brother and sister, but do you really only treat me as your sister?"
Fu Yin shouted with red eyes, still looking around to see where the man was hiding.
But no matter how hard I looked, I couldn't find any trace of him.
She didn't believe him and left.
Her tears unconsciously slid down from the corners of her eyes, and her heart fell bit by bit.
From the initial taste to her slowly getting closer, he never avoided her.
Later she started to be blatant and hardly took her eyes off him, until the day she came of age, when she secretly lay beside his bed, staring at his face and kissing him lightly.
That day, he opened his eyes.
He was definitely not drunk.
I thought when I woke up the next day he would confess everything to Aunt Xu and Uncle Lin, but what I got was the news that he had gone abroad.
But so what.
She doesn't think loving someone is a sin.
What's more, they love each other.
"Lin Xu, you were a deserter five years ago. Are you going to run away again five years later?"
"If you didn't like me back then, why did you kiss me?"
"If you want me to give up on you, just stand in front of me, look me in the eyes and tell me you don't love me!"
Fu Yin was shouting until she almost lost her voice, but there was no response at all. She couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.
After standing in the rain for a long time, Fu Yin felt his body shaking and he could hardly hold on any longer.
In the distance, Lin Xu's fingertips couldn't stop trembling, and his Adam's apple rolled slightly, as if thousands of needles were piercing his throat, causing his whole body to go numb with pain.
His eyes were bloodshot and he couldn't help but clench his hands, trying to suppress the emotions surging in his heart. The bulging blue veins on his forehead seemed about to burst.
He took a step forward, all his emotions burst out at this moment, and the string in his heart broke instantly.
He rushed out quickly, but stopped at the last few steps.
Fu couldn't stand due to hypoglycemia, and he was soaked in the wind and rain. He didn't hold on for half an hour before he began to fall into the rain.
The feeling of weightlessness as her body fell over did not last for a few seconds, and the next moment she fell into the man's arms.
"Sister Fu Yin! Sister Fu Yin, are you okay?"
Just as Xu Muzhou was standing at the back door of the hotel making a phone call, he heard a voice that sounded very similar to Fu Yin. He hung up the phone and walked to the front door with an umbrella, only to see the disheveled figure of a woman.
He ran so fast that the umbrella in his hand fell to the ground.
Fortunately, he caught Fu Yin.
Picking her up horizontally, Xu Muzhou lowered his eyes to look at the woman in his arms. Her face was pale and haggard, and she looked particularly pitiful.
Not far away, there stood a down-and-out man with an unshaven beard and a look of resentment.
"Is it you?"
Xu Muzhou recognized Lin Xu at a glance.
He was the person he had hated since childhood, but this person happened to be his brother's good friend.
As for why I hate Lin Xu, he always looks gentle but is actually full of evil intentions, and doesn't live like a real person.
More importantly, he occupied Fu Yin's youth.
"Muzhou." Lin Xu's voice was hoarse. He took a few steps forward and wanted to touch Fu Yin to see how she was doing.
Xu Muzhou took a few steps back, his eyes full of vigilance: "Could you please not appear in Fu Yin's world?"
"Do you know that what I hate most is people like you who want it all?"
"My brother is such a jerk, being friends with someone like you."
Xu Muzhou snorted coldly, his expression full of disgust, but he treated the woman in his arms with great caution.
"Don't tell her." Lin Xu called the emergency number, with complex emotions surging in his eyes. He didn't know how to respond for a moment, and his voice was very faint.
"Don't make yourself too great."
"Lin Xu, you gave up first, so don't provoke her again."
When the ambulance arrived, Xu Muzhou carried Fu Yin into the car.
Lin Xu quickly got back into the car, stepped on the accelerator and followed the ambulance to the hospital.
In the ambulance, Fu's blood pressure dropped drastically, so he was sent directly to the emergency room as soon as the car arrived at the hospital.
Xu Muzhou hurriedly followed, but was stopped outside the door.
Lin Xu looked panicked, and every step he took as he rushed to the emergency room was heavy.
Hearing the footsteps, Xu Muzhou turned his head suddenly. The moment he saw Lin Xu, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and he raised his fist and swung it at him heavily.
Lin Xu turned his face away, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He wiped it gently with his fingertips, and a few bruises gradually appeared on half of his face.
Xu Muzhou seemed still unsatisfied. Seeing that Lin Xu did not resist, he swung his fist at him, and Lin Xu did not dodge.
"Why don't you hide?"
Xu Muzhou was angry and stopped when the fist was a few centimeters away from him.
His fists were clenched and shaking, his eyes were bloodshot, and he asked in a fierce voice.
Lin Xu's mouth twitched slightly, and he licked the root of his back groove with his tongue. His tone was very calm: "All this is my fault."
He would rather Fu Yin never liked him.
She has suffered too much.
He was very scared.
She will be hurt.
Lin Xu's face was gloomy, and he gasped. After a long silence, he frowned slightly: "If you hit me, I will feel better."
"Stop pretending. I don't want Fu Yin to misunderstand me."
"You have no right to stand here, why don't you leave?" Xu Muzhou's anger burned in his chest, and he immediately drove him away.
Lin Xu froze in place, still guarding the door and unwilling to leave.
He wouldn't leave until he saw Fu Yin come out.
Lin Xu: "I want to see her come out."
Xu Muzhou was silent, retracted his fist, leaned against the wall and grabbed his hair.
He was afraid that Fu Yin would feel sad when he saw Lin Xu's injuries.
The lights in the emergency room went out.
The doctor came out sweating profusely.
Lin Xu and Xu Muzhou both walked up.
"The patient was in transient shock and is fine now. He needs to be hospitalized for two days of observation." The doctor paused for a few seconds, explained Fu Yin's condition, gave a few instructions, and then left.
Fu Yin was placed in the ward, Xu Muzhou was watching over him, and Lin Xu just stood outside the ward and watched from afar.
After seeing that Fu Yin was safe, his heart settled down and he leaned against the wall without leaving.
Xu Muzhou felt the gaze outside the window and looked towards the door. Knowing that it was Lin Xu standing outside, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
How convincing is it to regret now if you didn’t cherish it well before?
He had lost to Lin Xu before, and he didn't want to lose this time.
It was already the next day when Fu Yin woke up.
She opened her eyes slightly, as if she had had a nightmare. When she woke up, she was covered in sweat and woke up suddenly.
She gasped for breath, looked at the dazzling sunlight outside the window, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye.
Fu Yin opened his lips slightly, wanting to speak, but found that his voice was hoarse.
She couldn't utter a single word and could only hum a few times.
Xu Muzhou had just come back from getting some hot water outside when he saw Fu Yin had woken up. He excitedly rushed to the bedside.
"Sister Fu Yin, you finally woke up. Do you feel okay?"
Fu Yin was slightly startled, his eyes fell on the speaker, and he nodded subconsciously.
She stretched out her hands to gesture, as if to indicate that she couldn't speak because of her throat. Xu Muzhou helped her adjust the bed and held her hands.
"The doctor said your condition is normal. Last night, your fever reached 40 degrees Celsius, and you were discharged from the emergency room and then went back in again not long after. You really had a near-death experience."
Fu Yin felt like his head was about to explode. Recalling what happened last night, he still felt complicated.
Her eyes were wandering, looking around to see where Lin Xu was. Xu Muzhou could also sense what she was thinking.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Muzhou did not mention that Lin Xu had been here last night.
Fu Yin swallowed and felt a sore throat.
She pointed to the cup on the table again, and Xu Muzhou poured her a glass of water and handed it to her.
She took the cup and drank it all, but still felt very dry.
After guzzling several cups, Fu Yin finally felt much better. He took a long breath and leaned back gently on the pillow.
The breakfast in the hospital was very light. Fu Yin simply washed up and had breakfast. Xu Muzhou kept chattering in his ear, most of which was about yesterday's interview.
"I know everything about the TV station suspending you. Anyway, I have the original video, so I'm not worried about you being misunderstood."
Xu Muzhou patted his chest and promised that he would clear Fu Yin's name and would never let her take the blame.
Fu Yin didn't really care about these things, she just wanted the truth.
As a journalist, you are bound to be criticized, but you must learn to turn this public opinion into a weapon to protect yourself.
"I'll post it once I finish editing the video."
Fu Yin immediately shook his head, picked up his phone and started typing on the memo again.
[Don't post this yet. I think someone is trying to get me. Let's lure them out.]
Xu Muzhou frowned: "Did you offend someone at the TV station?"
Fu Yin's mind was working rapidly. It seemed that the only person he had offended was Lan Tian.
But no matter what, Lan Tian would never do anything that would be detrimental to the TV station.
He is also a veteran employee of the TV station, and doing this is just shooting himself in the foot.
Lan Tian is not that stupid.
She wasn't very familiar with the people on other channels, so she couldn't be jealous.
She had even less contact with the TV station's senior management, so they had no reason to make things difficult for her.
If he really wanted to make things difficult for her, he wouldn't have kept her at the TV station for two years and given her opportunities for promotion.
So this person can only be an outsider.
But she hadn't figured out who wanted to frame her.
I don't think so. Since we can't guess it, and the enemy is in the dark, we should lure them out.
Fu Yin had a clear mind and had analyzed the situation long ago, but getting evidence was not an easy task.
"Take care of yourself first. Once you've rested, I'll investigate this matter with you."
Xu Muzhou nodded heavily, his eyes full of admiration.
【Did anyone else come here yesterday? 】
Fu Yin nodded slightly, Lin Xu's face appeared in his mind, and his mood became more complicated. His fingertips holding the phone turned white, but he still quickly typed a line of words on the memo.
