Chapter 66
Lu Shenxing woke up in the hospital. He was neither dead nor had he lost his memory, except for a slight pain in the back of his head.
Chi Yu, who was sitting next to him, had bloodshot eyes and dry lips that were tightly pursed. His hair, which was usually meticulously groomed, hung down and stuck to his forehead in a messy manner, looking extremely dirty. There was a layer of stubble on his chin, his clothes were wrinkled, and he looked very decadent.
Lu Shenxing was in shock, not because of Chi Yu's change, but because of the progress of the mission. He was soaring on the rocket launcher and was almost at the finish line. So fast?
He tried to swallow his saliva, but the result was unexpected. He originally wanted to bleed a little to let Chi Yu know how much Zeng Ye meant to him, and whether he could really abandon her at will.
I didn't expect to bring such a heavy blow to the other party. This shouldn't be the case. Lu Shenxing felt strange. Chi Yu has always been heartless and a small injury would not make him like this.
A hoarse voice came from above his head. Lu Shenxing saw Chi Yu's face full of surprise, his lips trembling with excitement, and he called for a doctor in panic. The look of a person in despair who finally caught a glimmer of hope really emerged from Chi Yu's eyes and spread to his face in an instant. It seemed so real, completely different from the contempt he had before.
Lu Shenxing found it incredible. He asked the system in his mind, "222, is there another error?"
“Ding, nothing has been found yet.”
"After completing the mission, where will I be sent?" Lu Shenxing asked what he wanted to know most. What if he completed the mission in this world and the system had not been repaired, wouldn't he have to continue wandering around?
"Ding, the code has been revised. Mr. Lu will be sent back to the fifth world." The mechanical voice paused, which made Lu Shenxing's nerves tense. He heard the system's voice belatedly, "The fifth world has collapsed. Please be mentally prepared, Mr. Lu. Safety first."
“…”
Lu Shenxing didn't want to go back and face his junior brother who had an 80% chance of becoming a demon. He thought about it in a mess for a while. After a few doctors examined him, they left with the nurses, and Chi Yu was the only one left in the ward.
"Where is he?"
Chi Yu was stunned for a few seconds before he realized who the person on the bed was talking about. His first question was about that person. He sneered in his heart, his face covered with a layer of ice and snow, looking extremely ugly. He squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Do you care about that kid that much?"
"Yeah." Lu Shenxing deliberately laughed at him.
Chi Yu's breathing was rapid, as if a hand was grabbing his heart, causing severe pain, but he didn't know how to relieve the feeling. He kicked the table in the ward against the wall like a runaway beast, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.
Under Lu Shenxing's gaze, Chi Yu fell into a frenzy, smashing the water dispenser, TV, coffee table, and everything else he could. Several times, he stared at Lu Shenxing with red eyes, as if he was going to rush up at the next moment, but he didn't touch Lu Shenxing even a hair.
The ward, which had been tidy just a moment ago, was now in a mess. Chi Yu slowly squatted down against the wall, his voice hoarse, "You're going to die."
"Zeng Ye, you are going to die." He repeated in a low voice, as if he would burst into tears at any time.
Lu Shenxing's weird expression turned into understanding after hearing Chi Yu's next words. According to the original plot, this scene should have happened ten years later. At that time, Zeng Ye was 45 years old and in poor health. He was diagnosed with cancer and wanted to go alone. Chi Yu thought Zeng Ye had someone else, so he wanted to leave, and beat him in anger.
When Chi Yu knew the truth, Zeng Ye was already half-dead. He struggled to hold on for the last less than a month. He had seen enough of Chi Yu's confession and pain. Besides regret, he also felt a kind of perverted joy.
Once lost, it can never be recovered.
