When she rescued Xiao Guang, there was clearly blood on Xiao Guang’s body which was hers. Was she seriously injured, where was the injury, was there still a problem now, was she in pain?
He wanted to ask countless questions. He wanted to know everything but in the end, he just sat her and did not speak a word once.
Yan Huan did not come out at night. Other than a trip to the bathroom where she walked out light as a feather and closed the door, then she would come out in a while and walk into her bedroom. She did not even glance at the old couch once.
She knew he was still there.
He knew that she knew he was there.
However, it did not matter. Yan Huan would not let him get close and he was also afraid to approach.
Once she closed the door, Yan Huan touched her face, and then laughed miserably.
She laid down and also pulled up her thin quilt. She did not sleep well on this night. She was afraid to hear a noise from the door, scared that he would come in, terrified that he would see her ghastly appearance. So, as long as there was the slightest disturbance, she would sit up in a fright until she slept throughout the night in a daze, but also very sober. And he never came in all the while.
When she came out again, Lu Yi leaned against the small couch and sat without saying a word.
Even with her current appearance, she could not fit in the small couch, not to mention that he was such a big man.
She just stood at the door while he stayed on the couch. They were clearly only a few steps away from each other, but she was afraid of him, no, she was afraid that he would see her looking ghastly.
There were a few packets on the table. Yan Huan suddenly felt her heart tightened. The heat which had not crept up in the corners of her eyes for a long time, gathered up those tears at the wells of her eyes. After those tears, she could see clearly again.
“Eat up.” Lu Yi pushed the things forward on the table to let Yan Huan eat.
Yan Huan walked over, and then took those things while Lu Yi heard the rumbling coming from her stomach. She was really hungry.
“You eat slowly, I’ll be outside.” Lu Yi stood up, opened the door and went out. He put his back against the door behind him and exhaled the air from time to time at this moment. At present, he felt the air in front of him relaxed at the same time as well.
He had checked the house. There was no way out other than the door. So, he was not afraid that she would leave.
She was a human being, not a ghost. So, it was impossible for her to disappear on him now.
At this point, the cell phone he put in his pocket rang and it was Lei Qingyi.
Lei Qingyi was in the hospital at this time. He put his long legs up on the hospital bed. He felt weak. He was still wearing the same clothes and same pair of shoes. He was still able to smell a sharp sour odor on his body from a distance. He almost wanted to look for some patient’s uniform in the hospital and just put them on.
“When are you coming to take this man away?”
Lei Qingyi blurted out impatiently, “I don’t like to stay here at all.” But there was no other way. He needed the person to wake up first before he could question him about some things.
“Did he wake up yet?” Lu Yi asked calmly. With regards to Lu Qin at present, he could only say that his relationship with his brother was thinner than a sheet of paper. He was unwilling to even acknowledge him with a brief nod.
“Well, he woke up once.” Lei Qingyi kept swinging his leg, and then directly took off his shoes, feeling dissatisfied. He stepped on that person’s face and said, “He’s not dead, but he has been starved for a while. The soft tissue in his body felt loose. No major injuries, the minor injuries are not fatal. When he woke up, he kept saying a ghost had captured him and wanted to harm him. I think he has done too many bad things and he is still not afraid of people. But he may start to be afraid of ghosts.”
“Right, about that…..”
Lei Qingyi wanted to ask Lu Yi about that person. But he remembered Lu Yi’s words as he warned him and that he was not to open his mouth. Lu Yi had said for him to not breathe a word to anyone. So, he would have to keep mum. No one was to talk about it and to bring it up ever.
As for a menace like Lu Qin, since he himself said it was a ghost, then let it be a ghost.
Anyway, when he and Lu Yi arrived, they did not see anything and did not know what happened.
“Qingyi, do me a favor.” Lu Yi was still leaning next to the door. When he glanced at the door behind him, his tense mouth could not help but relax somewhat.
Soon after, he was still standing outside, but he did not go in. Instead, he waited there, anticipating for Lei Qingyi to come over.
A groaning sound could be heard, and a black Hummer stopped at the door. Then Lei Qingyi opened the car door. He held one in his arm and held the hand of another. The other one tugged at his clothes. There was no other way since he only had two hands. He could not bring the three children in another way.
Lu Yi walked over and took Xunxun from Lei Qingyi’s arms. He then touched her tiny face which was warm. The baby had just gotten out of the car and was not cold at all.
“What are you thinking of doing by bringing your children here?”
Lei Qingyi pointed to the slightly old house and said, “Is it to fondly recall the past or looking forward to the future?”
Lu Yi opened the door and let the three children in. Then he directly closed the door. Lei Qingyi had just taken a step forward but the door was closed and almost hit his nose.
“Really! Not even a thank you after using me. At least he should have offered me some water to drink?”
Then he gripped his clothes and pulled up his sleeves to smell. It was the sweet milky fragrance from Xunxun’s body, which made him feel better. Xunxun was nice and clean like a small soft doll. She was also beautiful and sensible. He did not want to let go once he carried her. Unfortunately, she was the apple of Lu Yi’s eye and not his. His family had a big and tall naughty boy like him. He did not look like Xunxun at all. Rather, he resembled him more.
He was now beginning to worry that his son would definitely be like a telephone pole in the future. He was afraid that he would not have a daughter-in-law.
And at this time, Yan Huan was holding a rag to wipe the table. She had already finished eating all the food for breakfast. She had been here wiping the table, thinking that Lu Yi was already gone, until the door made a noise.
And she had to admit that because he was around, so her heart finally put at ease.
She could deceive other people. She could also deceive herself. But she could not deceive her heart. She truly missed him, right?
“Mama…..”
Xunxun struggled to get down from Lu Yi’s arms. Lu Yi crouched down and let both of his daughter’s feet on the ground. Xunxun toddled toward Yan Huan and ran over.
Xiao Guang also let go of his father’s hand.
“Mama.” He also shouted. But after he ran a few steps, he then held Xiao Qi’s hand.
“Older Brother, Mama.”
Lu Qi pressed his small mouth and tears had long fell down, pattering.
