The doctor expressed regret: "She was fed with strong acid liquid, it is a miracle that her throat was not completely destroyed. Now it depends on her own recovery. If she recovers well, she may be able to speak again, but it is impossible for her to speak like a normal person."
Like a trial, when the verdict is handed down, no matter how many arguments there are, they will seem pale and powerless.
Lin Qing's body stiffened, and his face turned pale: "What else?"
She knew the doctor had more to say than that.
The doctor sighed lightly, looking at Lin Qing's slightly complicated expression. He glanced at Mu Li before speaking, and pondered over what he was going to say in his mind: "Her injuries, well, the situation is not too good. When she wakes up, you should pay more attention to her and try to make her feel better."
Is it possible to feel better
Lin Qing nodded woodenly, but didn't hear clearly what the doctor said next.
Lu Xiao has such a cheerful personality, he will definitely get through it. Lin Qing clenched his fists unconsciously, he will definitely get through it.
Lu Xiao had not woken up since being sent to the ward. Doctors and nurses came every once in a while, and the atmosphere in the ward was always dull and depressing. Lin Qing didn't ask much, just stood by the bed and watched, not bothering anyone, but it made people feel slightly moved.
After finishing the rounds, Lin Qing moved to the bedside and tucked the quilt for Lu Xiao. When he saw Lu Xiao's neck, he suddenly shrank his fingers back as if they were burned.
As her gaze moved away, her eyes dimmed instantly.
Mu Li was standing one meter behind her, and kept this distance no matter where she went. Lin Qing pretended to be unaware and his eyes scanned behind her countless times, but not once did they fall on Mu Li.
Mu Li pursed his lips, his chin was tense, and his eyes never left Lin Qing.
The two of them remained in silence for an unknown amount of time before Lin Qing finally responded. She looked out the window and saw that it was already daybreak. It was a cloudy day, and when she looked up, it was all dark clouds, so she couldn't tell what time it was.
"You should go eat." Lin Qing walked to the window and closed it a little. The wind outside was strong and cold, and the chill air filled the room.
Mu Li narrowed his eyes, as if he had been suppressing his emotions for a long time: "Come with me."
Should he be thankful that she was still willing to talk to him
Lin Qing didn't look back. He pulled the curtains up a little and glanced at the building opposite: "I'm not hungry."
Mu Li's gaze was fixed on her turned profile. She lowered her eyes and looked at the person on the bed, her lips slightly pursed, and there seemed to be only two words written on her face: tired.
She hadn't slept all night and had been stimulated repeatedly. She had not been feeling well recently. The doctor had specifically told her to take a good rest. Her body is hers, and only she knows how painful and tired she is.
There was no light in Lin Qing's eyes, nor was there any distraught resentment. When she turned her head and accidentally looked at Mu Li, Mu Li keenly caught the only emotion in her eyes.
calm.
That kind of calmness was like a calm sea, the endless sea surface remained motionless even if a gust of wind blew, it was a calmness that no one could shake. Maybe she was tired, she didn't have the extra energy to stir up waves.
At that moment, Mu Li's heart tightened suddenly. His subconscious told him that he had seen this look before. But before he could think about it, Lin Qing had walked around the window and walked in front of Mu Li. She gently pulled Mu Li's sleeve and said in a soft voice that seemed to be comforting: "You can't miss breakfast, go quickly."
She was trying to persuade him, but she didn't think about herself.
The person who needed something to eat the most here was not Mu Li, but her.
Mu Li had already pressed the back of her hand before she let go, and pulled her into his arms domineeringly. Lin Qing did not resist, but raised her head and looked at him calmly: "I'm really not hungry."
She hadn't eaten since last night, but when she saw Lu Xiao lying on the hospital bed, she felt her stomach was so full that she couldn't even drink a drop of water. Not to mention drinking, she couldn't help nausea just thinking about drinking water.
That kind of tenacious confrontation between the spirit and the body has always been the most intense and the calmest.
Mu Li loosened his grip on her hand, but kept his other hand on her waist.
"Eating breakfast has nothing to do with being hungry." He lowered his voice and lifted her chin. "The doctor will keep an eye on her and notify you as soon as she wakes up. Now come with me to eat."
Lin Qing was held by him and raised her head slightly, her nose almost bumping against his. She could see some suppressed emotions in Mu Li's eyes, and those deep eyes only reflected her shadow.
Once upon a time, she dreamed of this moment, and she paid so much to return to him.
Lin Qing took a deep breath, and her face turned redder when she exhaled. She did not avoid Mu Li's gaze, but met his gaze: "Don't forget what you promised me after dinner, to find out the identity of that person."
"Lin Qing!" Mu Li suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke in a low and hoarse voice. This woman was really deadly when she became stubborn.
Lin Qing turned his head and saw the man on the bed was upset. He couldn't help but step back: "Or do you want to tell me that the man is your subordinate? I can accept it."
Mu Li's eyes were sinister, and he turned her face fiercely: "Do you really have to do this?"
"It's not that I want to do this, but the facts are in front of me, and I have to learn to accept it." Lin Qing held his hand and gently moved it away, looking elsewhere, "You lost your memory at that time, didn't I accept it?"
"These are two completely different things!" There is no similarity between accepting his amnesia and misunderstanding him for hurting others!
"It's the same in my opinion, because there is no way to change it, and you can't escape even if you want to, so you can only-" Lin Qing said it unconsciously, instantly igniting the anger in the man's eyes.
"Tell me again, what do you want to do?" Mu Li grabbed her waist and pushed her back to the wall. He placed one arm across her face and leaned over to press her down. "You want to escape?"
Lin Qing pursed her lips, and the moment's silence seemed to Mu Li like an agreement.
"Lin Qing, you are getting bolder and bolder. Are you saying you want to escape because of something like this?" Mu Li stepped forward with his long legs, pushing her knees apart. She subconsciously looked up at him.
"This kind of thing? What happened to Lu Xiao is not a big deal? Mu Li, I really don't know what mood I should use to face you, and I don't know how to forgive myself. Now when I see Lu Xiao, I..." Lin Qing didn't finish her words, and the rest of the sentence was kissed back by the man.
Mu Li was absolutely furious.
He could tolerate her ignoring him, could use her as a punching bag, could block all the pain in front of her, but this woman actually said she wanted to escape
This is absolutely intolerable!
His kiss made her lips hurt, and he penetrated her almost to crush her. His deep breathing rose and fell in Lin Qing's ears, making her gradually lose the strength to resist.
Lin Qing was distracted for a moment, and then she became completely passive. Her chest trembled coldly, and the man reached in with his big hand, rubbing her wantonly and manically. He vented all his anger on his hands, rubbing her so hard that she frowned in pain, and there must be a lot of bruises on her body.
Seeing her slightly frowning, the man felt even more dissatisfied and possessive. His kiss was overbearing and aggressive, tightly holding Lin Qing's head to prevent her from escaping.
Lin Qing was trapped by him and couldn't move. Her back rubbed against the wall and it hurt. She squinted her eyes and couldn't open them. Suddenly, she felt something hot pressing against the base of her legs and saw a vicious look in the man's eyes.
“Hmm…” Lin Qing panicked and reached out to Mu Li’s shoulder, but he was too strong and no matter how hard she pushed, he wouldn’t move.
How could the man let go so easily? He pressed Lin Qing's wrist with his hand. A feeling of heat rose from his lower abdomen, instantly igniting the dull air in the room.
"Don't..." Her lips were about to be rubbed raw, and the entanglement became more and more inseparable.
Mu Li's slender fingers were about to unbutton her clothes, but her small hands grabbed them tightly: "Don't do that here..."
There was a burning emotion in Mu Li's eyes, almost burning her. He finally let Lin Qing go, and put his hot lips to her ear and bit it gently: "If you make me angry again, I will take you here."
Lin Qing didn't dare to speak anymore. He turned his head away and looked away. He didn't dare to look up at him or at the bed.
Her heart was conflicted, but there were too many things standing between them, and she didn't know when they could be resolved.
After a long time, both of them regained their calmness. Mu Li let her go, carefully tidied her clothes, and fastened the buttons that had been opened.
Lin Qing glanced away, there were still marks on his lips.
Mu Li's fingers gently slid across her lips, wiping away the water stains. His voice was even lower than before, revealing an unshakable determination: "I will find that person."
Lin Qing lowered his eyes and nodded.
Half an hour later, Lin Qing finally gave in and followed Mu Li back home. She was exhausted to begin with, and soon fell asleep while leaning on the chair.
When they arrived at the parking lot, Mu Li did not wake up Lin Qing. He carefully carried her out of the car and went all the way home.
At the door of the house, when Mu Li was about to enter the password, Lin Qing woke up. Her eyelids were very heavy, and when she raised her eyes, she saw those deep eyes staring at her.
"Where is this?" Lin Qing couldn't open his eyes, and turned his head to see the password input device.
She could just reach it by stretching out her arm, so she leaned over and entered four numbers. The door opened with a ding, and Mu Li carried her in.
The moment the door closed, Lin Qing seemed to remember something, and his voice was still a little confused: "Why did you make the password so simple? Aren't you afraid that others will guess it?"
0707, two of the four numbers are repeated, and there is also a 0. Logically, he should not be so insecure.
Mu Li put her on the sofa, which instantly sank and wrapped Lin Qing up: "Think about it yourself."
Lin Qing's arm slipped and rested softly on the sofa. She was so sleepy that she had no energy to think. She weakly repeated twice: "0707, 0707..."
For a moment, I was distracted and it seemed that the person I was saying was my own name.
Lin Qing suddenly opened his eyes wide, all sleepiness gone.
Mu Li had stood up and was looking down at her with deep eyes.
"You sleep a little longer, I'll go upstairs." Mu Li didn't say much, and looked at Lin Qing with a slightly complicated look.
Lin Qing sat up from the sofa, and her heart ached as she watched Mu Li go upstairs. How could she not understand? But now she understood, and she couldn't say it out loud.
As long as she closed her eyes, she could see Lu Xiao's body covered with wounds, and every scar could not be erased from her heart.
