Chapter 105 It's Going to Die
Chapter 105 is going to be a disaster.
He arranged for Mu Xiaoyu to share a hospital room with him simply to avoid worrying her. Now, seeing Mu Xiaoyu crying like this, he immediately frowned, not out of anger, but out of concern. He wanted to go over and hug Mu Xiaoyu, to tell her not to cry, but in his current state of injury, even moving was difficult, let alone getting out of bed to hug her.
Li Chenxu fell silent, unsure of what to say. For the first time, he realized how useless language could be. It couldn't fully express his feelings for the woman he loved most, nor could it comfort her when she was heartbroken.
"Are you alright? Don't lie to me, I want to know how badly you're injured."
Fortunately, Mu Xiaoyu didn't care about any of that at this moment. After crying for a while, she wiped her tears haphazardly from her face and asked Li Chenxu in a choked voice.
She stared intently at Li Chenxu as she spoke, her eyes brimming with tears, a mixture of stubbornness and heartache.
Li Chenxu felt sorry for her crying, but she felt sorry for Li Chenxu's injuries.
“Xiaoyu, actually I was badly injured… When I was taken to the hospital that night, the doctor even issued several critical condition notices, but I pulled through in the end. Before, I didn’t care about life and death the most. In my opinion, I had done everything I was supposed to do, and I had no regrets. But now, I’m afraid of dying. You haven’t fallen in love with me yet, and I haven’t spent my whole life with you. I can’t bear to die.”
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's stunned expression, Li Chenxu's usually aggressive eyes softened considerably. Love truly can change everything, and it was Li Chenxu's love for Mu Xiaoyu that softened his previously hardened heart.
Li Chenxu paused for only a second, thinking of the short but extremely happy days he had spent with Mu Xiaoyu, and his heart softened even more. Then he continued, "So you don't need to worry too much about me. Now that I'm awake, everything is fine. I still want to spend the rest of my life with you, so how could I bear to let anything happen to me?"
The long speech, which could hardly be called love talk, made Mu Xiaoyu's tears, which she had just stopped, flow again instantly.
She felt wronged, but this time, it was on behalf of Li Chenxu. She didn't know what she had done so well that Li Chenxu would treat her so well. This time, it was clearly because of her that things had turned out this way, but Li Chenxu not only didn't blame her, but instead comforted her.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu suddenly understood that no one else in the world could give her the same feeling as Li Chenxu, as if she were his whole world, and as if she had become an inseparable part of his blood...
This was the first time Li Chenxu had seen Mu Xiaoyu cry so hard. He had intended to comfort her, but his efforts backfired. This man, who was a powerful figure in the business world, was at a loss when faced with Mu Xiaoyu's almost unstoppable tears.
Just as Mu Xiaoyu was sobbing uncontrollably, the ward door suddenly opened. The next moment, Assistant Lin walked in.
The other party clearly hadn't expected this situation. With one foot inside the door, they froze at the sight.
Mu Xiaoyu has always been a proud person. In the past, she would only show her vulnerability when no one was around, or she would just keep it to herself. But now, she will only let Li Chenxu see her vulnerability.
Upon seeing Assistant Lin enter, her tears stopped instantly, as if a switch had been flipped. She hastily wiped away her tears, closed her eyes, and turned her head away, pretending nothing had happened.
Mu Xiaoyu performed these actions very quickly. Not only Assistant Lin, but even Li Chenxu, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but chuckle.
Mu Xiaoyu was already embarrassed, but now, hearing Li Chenxu's deep laughter, her face became even hotter, and she bit her lips tightly, her face full of shame and indignation.
All of this was observed by Li Chenxu. Worried that Mu Xiaoyu would bite her lip if things continued like this, Li Chenxu quickly coughed lightly and resumed his usual serious demeanor at work.
He looked at Assistant Lin, who had now regained his senses, and said calmly, "Speak, what is it?"
It was unclear what Assistant Lin wanted to say, but upon hearing this, his gaze towards Li Chenxu was noticeably hesitant, clearly indicating that there was something he didn't want Mu Xiaoyu to know.
Having been in a superior-subordinate relationship for many years, Li Chenxu naturally noticed the hesitation in Assistant Lin's eyes.
He didn't speak, but subconsciously glanced at Mu Xiaoyu beside him. This time, the conflict between them stemmed not so much from external factors like Xu Sulin, but more from his failure to provide Mu Xiaoyu with enough security and to earn her trust.
The conflict arose precisely because both sides lacked honesty. Li Chenxu has never shied away from his mistakes in getting to where he is today.
So he remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Just say it."
Since Li Chenxu had spoken up, Assistant Lin naturally didn't need to hesitate any longer and said directly, "Our people have just investigated and found out that the driver who caused the accident was deliberately bribed, but the other party is very cautious and hasn't left any evidence for us to find. Also... as for Miss Xu, I heard that she has been sick since she left the villa last time, and now the people in the Xu family are saying that it was the madam who did it and have been putting pressure on the Li family."
Mu Xiaoyu, who had been keeping her eyes closed, almost burst out in anger when she heard what Assistant Lin said next.
She now understood Xu Sulin. Putting aside the recording pen incident, why did he have to get sick right after he went to her place? Mu Xiaoyu was almost certain that Xu Sulin was trying to frame her and cause her trouble!
Mu Xiaoyu was furious, but she held back and didn't say anything. She didn't want her emotions to affect Li Chenxu and the others.
Upon hearing Assistant Lin's words, Li Chenxu remained silent for a long time, seemingly lost in thought.
At this moment, Assistant Lin couldn't figure out what Li Chenxu was thinking either. Seeing this, he glanced at Li Chenxu with some unease. He still had that indifferent expression, but if you looked closely at his eyes, you could see the coldness and contempt within them.
He wasn't mistaken; it was indeed contempt.
Assistant Lin was increasingly puzzled, unable to understand why Li Chenxu would show such a look. Before he could think further, Li Chenxu spoke.
"The weather is getting cold; it's time for the Xu family to take a break."
