Chapter 202 Turning the page
"It's okay..." I reached out and stroked Mo Chen's face.
Mo Chen's deep eyes stared at me, revealing endless guilt. Then, he slowly lowered his head, like a child who had made a mistake, not daring to look me in the eye.
I couldn't help but feel distressed, because I had never seen Mo Chen so lost. He was always full of confidence and pride, but at this moment he seemed so helpless and lonely.
"Why don't I see grandpa and grandma..."
"Li Xin didn't notify them because he was afraid that something would happen to us at the same time and the two old people wouldn't be able to hold on." Mo Chen looked up at me.
"Grandpa and grandma wanted to see you, but I found an excuse to get away with it. I was afraid they would worry when they came."
I nodded. "That's good. I'll explain it to my grandparents later. They'll understand."
Mo Chen nodded, held my hands with both of his own, and buried his face behind our hands.
"So...where's mom? Did you bring her back?"
Mo Chen just shook his head and said nothing.
"As long as you are okay, we will find a solution." I looked at Mo Chen.
Mo Chen shook his head and said nothing.
My hands were wet.
Looking at Mo Chen's trembling shoulders, I couldn't help myself.
After a long time, Mo Chen calmed down. He looked up at me and reached out to touch my face. "I won't check it anymore."
"Give up now?" I looked at Mo Chen.
Mo Chen lowered his eyes to hide the pain in them, then raised his eyes and looked at me firmly, "Yes."
"What do we have to be afraid of...you can..." I frowned.
"I'm afraid..." Mo Chen interrupted me, his voice trembling slightly, "I am afraid..."
I looked at Mo Chen, his thin lips were tightly pursed together, and his eyes were not looking at me, but at my right hand.
I looked at Mo Chen with heartache.
I raised my hand and pinched Mo Chen's face. "Don't go out without telling me anything in the future. Don't make me worry about you all the time."
Mo Chen looked at me and nodded.
"The doctor said it will take a long time for my hand to heal, and it's my right hand, so this is troublesome..."
"Don't worry, I'll ask the best physical therapist to do rehabilitation training for you. I'll definitely..."
"I do not want!"
Mo Chen stopped and looked at me.
"You become the best physical therapist and practice with me!" I looked at Mo Chen with confidence.
Mo Chen looked at me.
I smiled and said, "Aren't you a top student? This shouldn't be difficult to learn! I don't want anyone else to accompany me, I just want you to accompany me! If it doesn't work, you can be my right hand. With you by my side, it's convenient for me to do anything I want."
Mo Chen nodded.
"Didn't you say before that you couldn't understand how much I depended on you? Now, I will depend on you from now on. You have to be responsible for me!"
I looked at Mo Chen with a smile.
Mo Chen smiled and nodded.
"Oh, you finally smiled... You're pretty hard to coax."
I smiled at the silent Mo Chen, then I patted the bed beside me and said, "Come up, hug me, I'm sleepy."
Mo Chen got on the bed and leaned against the headboard, then reached out and hugged me carefully.
I snuggled into Mo Chen's arms, the familiar warmth, the familiar smell, it was so good, and I soon fell asleep.
… …
My body recovered quickly and I was able to walk a few days after I woke up.
But my right hand was really badly injured. Apart from the pain, I couldn't control it at all.
Also, the recurring low-grade fever kept me awake for short periods of time.
When I am sober, Mo Chen will take me for a walk in the garden, and I will feel much better.
I haven’t seen Li Xin for a while, which makes me very strange. I have been awake for a few days.
Sister Xin Lan came to see me and brought a lot of contracts for Mo Chen to sign. There were also a few people who came to report to Mo Chen. The room was a bit noisy, so Sister Xin Lan accompanied me to the garden.
"That day was so thrilling. My hands are shaking when I think about it now." Sister Xinlan supported me and walked slowly.
"I scared you." I looked at Sister Xinlan apologetically.
Sister Xin Lan shook her head. "Alas, to be honest, I have never felt death so clearly. Rongyue, I feel like I am dreaming that I can walk with you like this now."
"Sister Xinlan, thank you. If it weren't for you and Li Xin that day, I might have..."
"Don't say unlucky things! You are lucky!" Sister Xinlan quickly stopped me.
"That day, it was all thanks to Li Xin. You lost too much blood and fell into a coma, and the hospital's blood bank was short of blood that matched yours. I could do nothing but listen to the doctor and worry. It was Li Xin who mobilized his family's resources to find blood that matched yours, so that your rescue was not delayed due to lack of blood. Otherwise, you would have been in real danger that day."
"For a moment, how did he do that?"
Sister Xin Lan lowered her voice and looked at me, "The Li family's troops."
I looked at Sister Xinlan in some shock.
"Only the Li family can do this. And Mo Chen is also a member of the army."
"The official news about where Mo Chen had the accident that day said it was a serious traffic accident, so the troops nearby sealed it off."
If it weren't for Li Xin, Mo Chen and I might have been separated forever that day.
"But why haven't I seen Li Xin for so long?"
Sister Xin Lan sighed, "Your heart stopped beating twice in the emergency room that day. We were both outside the emergency room. I was probably so panicked that I even forgot to cry. I looked at Li Xin, and he was standing quietly outside the emergency room, staring at the door of the emergency room without moving. His body was covered in your blood. He was so quiet that it was scary. The doctor came out and asked the family members to sign, and he signed. A nurse came to persuade him to sit down and wanted to clean the blood off his body. He looked at the people around him with a look that seemed to want to kill him. I have never seen Li Xin like that."
"Later, Mo Chen finally came. The moment Li Xin saw him, he seemed to come alive, but he was like a beast that had come alive. He held Mo Chen down, and several people failed to stop him. But he didn't hit Mo Chen either. He just said a word and left."
"What did you say?"
"He said: It's good that you can't bear the pain. Just watch yourself kill the person who loves you the most. This is not a gift, but a punishment."
Sister Xin Lan looked at me with a puzzled look on her face. "However, the next day, Li Xin showed up at the company as usual, but he was like a completely different person. Mo Chen was not in the company recently, and Li Xin was in a low mood. Everyone in the company was trembling with fear."
"It's okay. I'll be well soon. When I'm well, I'll let Mo Chen go back to the company. As for Li Xin... I'll go back and talk to him."
"Don't push yourself too hard and take good care of yourself." Sister Xinlan looked at my belly, she hesitated and didn't continue.
I nodded.
Sister Xinlan and I returned to the ward and saw that the people Sister Xinlan brought were standing outside the door, far away from the door. There were a few people standing at the door of my ward like bodyguards, blocking the door tightly.
I looked into the ward past a few people and saw grandpa and grandma sitting on the sofa, with Mo Chen kneeling in front of them.
Mo Chen lowered his head, but his expression was unusually resolute.
I asked Sister Xinlan to take everyone in the company away, and then I went into the ward.
When my grandparents saw me come in, they both stood up and looked at me with concern, especially my grandma, who burst into tears the moment she saw me.
I walked over to Mo Chen and looked at the documents on the table.
divorce agreement.
I looked at my grandparents, then knelt beside Mo Chen and held his hand.
"Melting Moon!"
All three of them were calling my name, but their tones were different.
"The ground is cold. You can't bear it. Go to bed." Mo Chen wanted to help me up.
I held Mo Chen down and looked at the angry grandfather and the crying grandmother.
"We don't separate. We can't separate."
"Rongyue, get up. Grandpa has made the decision." Grandpa looked at me with red eyes. "Grandpa was wrong. I shouldn't have involved you and now you are in such trouble."
"I thought that with you, this kid would be able to live his life steadily. I was wrong. In this case, you two should separate. Wherever you want to go, grandpa will send you away. I promise that he will not disturb your life again. As for him, I will keep a good eye on him and he will not do anything dangerous to Rongyue again."
"I know I was wrong! Grandpa! I can't leave Rongyue! I can't leave!" Mo Chen held me tightly, looking at grandpa with red eyes.
"You don't even care about her life, how can you be so dependent on her!" Grandpa slammed his crutch heavily on the ground.
"I was wrong...I really know I was wrong..."
"Grandpa!" I looked at Grandpa "You are not wrong!"
"I am very grateful that you brought Mo Chen to me. With him, I was able to find myself again and have hope for life again. Otherwise, Rong Yue would have lived her life in a daze, not knowing what passionate love is, nor what true happiness is."
"It's good for someone to be content with a simple life for decades, but Rongyue has already had the best. If I let her go now, I won't be willing to do so and I can't do it."
"Life is so long, everyone gets injured and has accidents. We are husband and wife, and none of the results are the fault of one person. If there is a mistake, it is the fault of both of us. If you think that I can only share the good times with Mo Chen but not the bad times, then you are wrong. Rongyue is not that kind of despicable person!"
"Rongyue... Grandpa didn't mean that... Grandpa just thinks that this bastard can't protect you." Grandpa looked at me apologetically.
"I know! Grandpa! But what I want to say is that Mo Chen is not wrong! None of us are wrong. The ones who are wrong are obviously the ones who caused the trouble! It was obviously them who trapped Mo Chen's parents. What's wrong with him wanting to save his mother? If he can give up his parents who gave birth to him and raise him for his own happiness and ignore their lives, then he is too heartless and terrible! Then Rongyue is the one who has loved the wrong person!"
"Rongyue, look at yourself, what have you become... I don't want to see you like this... Grandma doesn't want to have to see her die before her someday!" Grandma sobbed.
"Grandma, this kind of thing will never happen again! I promise!" Mo Chen looked at his grandmother with a firm gaze.
Grandma cried and shook her head, "No, Mo Chen, grandma can't agree to you two doing this again..."
I held back my tears and interrupted my grandmother, "Grandma, no one can guarantee what will happen or not happen in this life! This is my life, I have to walk on my own! If being with him is destined to kill me, then I will accept it. At least I can die without regrets, but now we are fine, and you still want us to separate, then I might as well die in this accident!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Mo Chen pulled me.
"You! You!! What nonsense are you talking about!" Grandma rushed over and raised her hand.
"Grandma!" Mo Chen stood up to protect me and held me tightly in his arms.
"Grandma, you can hit me if you want! Beat me until you vent your anger! But if you want to use these pieces of paper to separate us, don't even think about it!"
I struggled to get up and looked at my grandma. "Grandma, I almost died, but I refused to give up. I ran back from the gates of hell, not to be separated from him! Life and death can't separate us, so what does this mean?"
I reached out and swiped all the documents on the table to the ground.
I endured the pain in my arm and looked at my grandma firmly. "Grandma, I've had enough. I've had enough of threats, coercion, and being arranged. From now on, I will be the master of my own life! Life and death are determined by fate, and everything is up to me! No one can control us anymore! Our affairs are only decided by us two!"
"You! I'm doing this for your own good! Silly child! Look at you! You still refuse to let go even after this, are you stupid?" Grandma squatted down and hugged me.
"Grandma, you clearly knew that Rongyue was in pain, but you still wanted to stab Rongyue's heart... I'm already like this, why should I let go, why should I let go..." I hugged my grandma and cried.
I poured out all the pain and grievances in my heart into my grandmother's arms.
"Grandma, Rongyue is not fully recovered yet, we can't do this...please don't cry. Mo Chen promises you and Grandpa that I will never investigate my parents again, and I will never do anything to hurt Rongyue again!"
"Grandpa, you can't get too excited. The young master and the young mistress are both adults and they have their own lives. It's inevitable for young people to stumble and fall. You have to believe in them and give them more time. Everything will be fine." The housekeeper comforted Grandpa softly.
Mo Chen patted me gently and said, "Rongyue, stop crying. Let me see your hand to see if it hurts."
Grandma pushed me away and looked at my hand nervously, "Where does it hurt? Why didn't you tell me if it hurt? You are so stupid!"
I covered my right hand, which was shaking in pain. I was so busy crying that I didn't pay attention.
"Go and call the doctor."
Grandpa said this and walked over to me.
The housekeeper hurried out to call a doctor.
Mo Chen held my right hand to stop it from shaking. Then he picked me up and put me on the bed.
"Don't cry!" Mo Chen wiped my tears gently. "Don't cry. You won't be pretty if you cry again."
After I heard him finish speaking, I couldn't stop crying. "It's all grandpa and grandma's fault!"
I was sobbing and couldn't stop.
"Don't cry, grandpa is too mad at this kid. He even hid it from us. Your grandma and I only found out today that such a big thing happened to you!" Grandpa sat beside my bed and held my hand.
"Yes, Rongyue, stop crying! You are not well yet, you can't waste your energy like this." Grandma patted me
"Grandpa and grandma, if you really felt sorry for Rongyue, you wouldn't have made things difficult for me and Mo Chen as soon as you came!" I wiped my tears.
"How old are you? How can you still be so arrogant and unreasonable? You can even do such a thing as breaking up a couple in love!"
"Oh, what are you talking about! You!" Grandma helplessly hit my head.
"Look! You are still arguing with me now! You don't feel sorry for me at all! I feel hurt!" I reached out and hugged Mo Chen and continued crying in his arms.
Mo Chen hugged me and patted me gently.
"Don't cry, Rongyue! Don't cry, grandma didn't mean it!" Grandpa patted me and coaxed me softly.
"Okay, okay, it's okay that grandma was wrong! Stop crying, Rongyue!" Grandma touched my head.
"I'm really mad at my grandparents this time! I don't want to care about you anymore! You should go back and reflect on yourselves! You are not allowed to come here without my permission! I won't receive you even if you come!" I buried my face in Mo Chen's arms and hummed as I finished speaking.
Grandpa and grandma coaxed me softly for a long time. Then Mo Chen asked someone to send them away.
I heard no more movement in the room, so I looked up. Sure enough, they had all left.
I still hugged Mo Chen and looked up at him.
Mo Chen looked down at me.
Then we both laughed.
"Acting is so tiring. I'm almost done crying!" I said helplessly.
"I can tell whether you are acting or not." Mo Chen put away his smile and looked at me deeply, his hand touching my head again and again.
"When you woke up, you kept comforting me. You didn't cry or make a fuss, but kept your pain to yourself. You didn't want me to see it, so I could only feel sorry for you silently. It would make both of us feel better if you could cry like this."
It turns out that Mo Chen had discovered everything.
"Then... let's agree that after today, everything that happened before will be over. You don't have to feel sorry anymore, and I won't be sad about the past anymore. We still have a long way to go, and we can't be stuck here forever! Okay!" I looked at Mo Chen seriously.
Mo Chen looked at me and nodded.
