《Love's Vicissitudes: A Pursuit of Beloved Wife》C28. Killing Him by Mistake
Advertisement
All Yuexi wants is to scold him. Such a retarded! She steps back, stares coldly at the direction of the shadow, and says, "You stay away from me!" Her pores are filled with refusal."What drug did Li Fengjue give you? I’m here to save you, and I can give you as much money as you want! If he really cares about you, he would come here."
He rushes over here as he speaks, which scares Yuexi. She subconsciously tries to dodge him, but accidentally hits her elbow at the corner of the table. It makes her cry out of pain. At the same time, Xu Linchen rushes towards her again, trying to kiss her neck. With wounds on her hand, she doesn’t have any strength to push him away. But she gropes in the dark, and finds a square object. Then she smashes it hard against his head.
"Ah!" Xu Linchen screams, and lets go of Yuexi. Surrounded by the dark, Yuexi couldn't see how badly injured he is. Trembling, she runs away. At that time, lightning flashes, and thunder rumbles. In no time, it rains cats and dogs.
Yuexi panics, not knowing what to do next. How is Xu Linchen? Is he dead? When she leaves, she seems to hear the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. The rain is pouring, and Yuexi's thin skirt clings to her body. She couldn't help but shiver when the wind blows.
She is on a small hill. Surrounded by darkness, Yuexi couldn't see the way out. She falls down heavily several times. After she gets up, she couldn't figure out the direction. And the plants on the side scratch her legs. She staggers, but accidentally misses her steps. So she slips down the slope. Yuexi feels the tearing pain in her back. It seems that she has sprained her calf. Now, she has no strength to stand up at all.

That night, Yuexi feels helplessness and despair. She couldn't help but cry, thinking that she is going to die. She doesn’t know how long she has been lying there. Yuexi feels dizzy, as if someone were to pierce her head with a needle. And her consciousness is fading away little by little. When she wakes up again, she squints her eyes slightly and sees that the sun is rising, and the rain stops instantly. She curls up the corners of her pale lips, and slowly closes her eyes.
At that moment, she seems to see a shadow of a man in front of her. The man is tall and thin. Without saying a word, he holds her up from the ground. Feeling warmth and the familiar embrace, Yuexi's murmurs, with the slightest voice, "Li ... Is that you?" After saying this, she loses all her strength, and slowly closes her eyes again.
Yuexi feels that she has experienced all four seasons in this drowsy sleep. When she slowly opens her eyes, it takes her a long time to get used to the light. She smells the smell of disinfectant, and subconsciously glances around. Is she in a hospital?
When she is wondering why she is in the hospital, she suddenly hears the quarrel outside. She looks suspiciously at the door, gets out of bed, and comes to the door. Yuexi hears the conversation between the two. "I didn't do it on purpose. You know everyone in this family has to obey Grandfather's order. I just followed the rules." Li Ya seems to be explaining something.
"Order? It would be too late, even if only one thing gets exposed." Li Fengjue's deep voice can be heard clearly, even through the door crack. "All the things we do is for your own good. Yuexi is just one ordinary woman. She doesn't deserve you, and she is not allowed to step foot into Li family. Your only option now is to marry Xu Ziqi!" Li Ya bitterly tries to talk some sense into him.

Li Fengjue sneers, and looks at her with no expression on his face. "That's your wishful thinking. I just want a wife I love. I don't need a political marriage." Li Ya cannot believe the words he says. She rolls her eyes, and asks him with the tone of uncertainty, “Do you really fall in love that woman? I don’t think you are in love with her! You treat her the same way as you treat Xu Ziqi."
As she speaks, her voice becomes sharp, as if she were afraid of losing something. Li Fengjue sneers again, staring closely at her with his eyes, "It is none of your business as regards who love!" "You know, I always treat you ..." Li Ya eagerly wants to explain .
"My sister-in-law, please know who you are." Li Fengjue doesn’t want to continue the topic, but Li Ya pulls him back. "Do you still resent me for this? You also know the situation back then. I have no other choice but to do it this way. Fengjue, I ..." Li Fengjue expressionlessly swats away her hand, and says, "It doesn’t matter now. Please don’t make any appearance in front of my wife. I'm afraid she will misunderstand!"
They stand facing each other. Yuexi frowns, hurriedly runs to the bed, lays down, and quickly closes her eyes to feign falling asleep. It doesn't take long before the door is pushed open. She hears the heavy footsteps coming from far to near, and notices that someone sits down by the bed. Smelling the familiar scent, Yuexi knows for sure that it is Li Fengjue.
Yuexi planned to wait for his departure, but he doesn't show the intention of leaving. After a rather long while, she opens her eyes quietly, and suddenly remembers the things that happened last night. She sits up abruptly, sweating. How is Xu Linchen? Is he really dead.
"What's wrong?" Li Fengjue notices that there is something strange with her. So he steps forward, takes her into her arms, and comforts her softly, “You’re alright.” Yuexi trembles, holding tightly to his clothes. "Xu Linchen ... I seem to have killed him by mistake ... what should I do ..." "No, he is still alive." Li Fengjue’s voice is calm.
Yuexi quickly looks up at him, and asks with uncertainty, "Really? I was too anxious at the time, and didn’t go easy on him. Although I didn't see it clearly, there was blood on my hand. It was his blood ...” Gently touching the woman's head in his arms, Li Fengjue replies with certainty, “You indeed didn’t go easy on him. He was seriously injured and in a coma, so he needed to stay in the hospital for a period of time. But he has woken up and the doctor says that he just needs to rest. That's it. "
Glancing at Li Fengjue a few times, Yuexi is relieved, and she soothes her chest. Perhaps it is because that she is completely relaxed now, Yuexi feels severe pain in her body, especially pain in her back, ankle, and on her forehead. Li Fengjue glances at her, and explains, "Yesterday you were badly injured. In addition to the pouring rain, complications may occur. Your calf is fractured, and you need to take a good rest."
"That’s really fortunate for me." Yuexi sighs quietly. Li Fengjue looks at her in confusion, as if he were looking at a lunatic. She smiles bitterly, and says, "I thought I was going to die. It turns out I just broke my calf. I can live with that."
