A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu Chapter 990 - The Child Was Still Alive (2)

Chapter 990 The Child Was Still Alive (2)

For the first time, Mu Sijue felt a chill running through him because of a feeling of panic. His hands couldn’t help trembling.

When he pointed the gun at Xu Youning, had she ever thought of telling him the truth if he had made up his mind to kill her?

The answer must be yes.

But she still decided to leave to save Aunt Zhou and Tang Yulan first and tried to figure out what to do about her child.

But she did not need to do this with her life.

If he really pulled the trigger, Xu Youning might tell him about the blood clots and explain that she had not taken the medicine.

However, he was the first to give up and let Xu Youning leave in the end.

In that battle without gunpowder, Xu Youning was the winner.

Mu Sijue smashed his clenched fist down on the wooden tea table, almost breaking it.

Doctor Liu could imagine how much pain Mu Sijue would feel after the punch. Her face changed and she asked, “Mr. Mu, is your hand… all right?”

Mu Sijue recalled the origin of the misunderstanding—the empty Mifepristone & Misoprostol bottle.

He didn’t care about his hand at all. He stared at Doctor Liu with bloodshot eyes and asked, “Why did Xu Youning have Mifepristone and Misoprostol in her hand?”

“Mifepristone and Misoprostol? Oh, I gave it to Ms. Xu,” Doctor Liu said, “the child had no signs of life in the first test, so I suggested to Ms. Xu to give up the child and receive the treatment. A few days ago, I did another test and found the child was fine. Fortunately, she didn’t take the medicine. Otherwise, I would be riddled with guilt.”

Xu Youning didn’t take Mifepristone & Misoprostol. The test result from the private hospital that Mu Sijue took her to was just a misunderstanding.

Like a general who was defeated on the battlefield, Mu Sijue lowered his eyes and even the lines of his shoulders were no longer as erect as usual.

Feeling sad for Mu Sijue, Su Jian’an suddenly wanted to s.h.i.+eld him from the Earth.

She didn’t want anyone to see this dejected and dispirited Mu Sijue.

Doctor Liu also couldn’t imagine that the man who seemed to be able to call the wind and summon the rain could be so depressed in the blink of an eye.

A long time later, Mu Sijue asked hoa.r.s.ely, “So, Xu Youning chose to keep the child?”

“Yes.” Doctor Liu thought for seconds and hazarded a guess, “She may have thought that if she could hold on to give birth to the child, then he will grow up healthily. He is a continuation of her even though she couldn’t survive.”

Mu Sijue seemed to be struck by something. He gave Doctor Liu a sharp look, asking, “Hold on to give birth to the child? What does it mean?”

Only then did Doctor Liu remember that she had not told Mu Sijue the worst news.

Would Mu Sijue be shattered if he knew Xu Youning would die soon?

Doctor Liu glanced at Mu Sijue with a little fear and said, “Ms. Xu’s current condition is unstable. She… might die at any time.”

Mu Sijue’s heart suddenly missed a beat and his eyes dilated. He glared at Doctor Liu like a demon and shouted, “What did you just say?”

Doctor Liu was startled and didn’t dare to speak.

In fact, Mu Sijue heard it clearly—the blood clots were a serious threat to Xu Youning’s life, and she could die at any time.

Even so, Xu Youning still didn’t want to accept the treatment and chose the child over herself.

Mu Sijue suddenly remembered that he told Xu Youning repeatedly that he wanted the child at the top of the mountain.

“Did Xu Youning make such a stupid choice because of his adamant wish?”

If so, Xu Youning was silly enough!

Doctor Liu was scared when she saw Mu Sijue’s dark face, but she didn’t dare to escape.

Su Jian’an walked over to Doctor Liu and told her to relax—Mu Sijue would not vent his anger on her no matter how much regret he felt.

Doctor Liu nodded, though still afraid.

Su Jian’an then asked, “Doctor Liu, do you remember when Yunyun met up with you?”

“Yes, she obviously came to sound me out. I found her behavior rather strange, so I didn’t dare to tell her anything.” Doctor Liu looked at Su Jian’an in surprise, “Is Dr. Xiao on your side?”

“Yes!” Su Jian’an didn’t have time to explain much and just continued, “Yunyun told me that she saw Sijue’s phone number on your desk. Did Youning leave it to you?”

“Yes,” Doctor Liu nodded and said, “A few days ago, Ms. Xu suddenly came back and gave me Mr. Mu’s phone number. She told me to contact Mr. Mu only if there was an emergency.”

Su Jian’an was right. It was Xu Youning who had given Doctor Liu Mu Sijue’s phone number.

Su Jian’an continued to ask, “Doctor Liu, why did you suddenly resign?”

Doctor Liu answered honestly, “A few days ago, Ms. Xu suddenly called and asked me if I could go into hiding in a secure place. I thought something might happen, so I resigned from the hospital.”

“I see,” Su Jian’an glanced at Mu Sijue, “What else do you want to ask Doctor Liu?”

“Nothing,” Mu Sijue called his subordinate and ordered, “Send Doctor Liu and Miss Ye back.”

Ye Luo had been standing aside and listening to the whole conversation. But the more she listened, the more confused she was. She even suspected that she had time-traveled. It was not until Mu Sijue called her name that she suddenly roused herself and looked at Mu Sijue blankly. “What?”

Just as Su Jian’an was about to say that Ye Luo had nothing to do with the current situation, the door suddenly opened and Song Jiqing dashed in like a gust of wind.

Song Jiqing had been running at full speed. If one listened carefully, one could hear him panting. His heaving chest also sold him out.

“What’s going on?” Song Jiqing stared at Mu Sijue with the fire burning in his eyes, “Mu Qi, why did you bring Ye Luo here?”

Song Jiqing came for Ye Luo as expected.

Su Jian’an looked at Ye Luoluo and then at Song Jiqing meaningfully. She thought to herself, “The good play that Mu Sijue mentioned should be about to begin, isn’t it?”

Well, she was gossipy. She was curious about what would happen between Song Jiqing and Ye Luo.

Song Jiqing was really anxious.

Having been acquainted with Mu Sijue for so many years, he knew Mu Sijue too well.

People who were targeted by Mu Sijue would never have a good end.

Ye Luo could not be caught by Mu Sijue!

Mu Sijue didn’t want to respond. At this time, Ye Luoluo had already known what was happening.

She looked at Song Jiqing for a few seconds and suddenly stepped forward after confirming it was really him. She stared at Song Jiqing and said, “Sir, I should be the one asking you. Why are you here?”

Song Jiqing gazed at Ye Luo with displeasure. “Wicked girl. Can’t you be more gentle after so many years? No wonder you can’t find a boyfriend!”

“Why are you staring at me?” Ye Luo almost jumped up as she was not as tall as Song Jiqing, “Answer my question. How long have you been here?”

Song Jiqing gritted his teeth and hissed, looking at Ye Luo in a displeased manner.

Ye Luo didn’t care about Song Jiqing’s mood. Just as she was about to get mad, Song Jiqing pinched her ear sharply and lifted her up.

Her ears were the most sensitive part of her body. Song Jiqing knew that clearly!

“d.a.m.n, sc.u.mbag! Song Jiqing must have done that on purpose!”

“Quiet!” Song Jiqing ordered in a masterful tone, “Just follow me.”

Ye Luo did not obey Song Jiqing. She struggled all the way and even hit him. However, Song Jiqing could always subdue her. She couldn’t break free at all.

Soon, Song Jiqing pulled Ye Luoluo away from the room, leaving some confused onlookers behind.

The one who was most curious was Doctor Liu.

Ye Luo was her niece, but a bespectacled gentleman tugged Ye Luo away in front of her.

The strangest thing was that she was not worried at all.

Perhaps it was because the man did not look dangerous. Most importantly, he and Ye Luo… seemed to be quite familiar with each other.

The only person that Ye Luo was acquainted with was the man from City G.

Doctor Liu looked at Su Jian’an uncertainly and asked, “Is that man from City G?”

“Yes,” Su Jian’an nodded and said, “his name is Song Jiqing. He seems to be very familiar with Dr. Ye…”

Doctor Liu nodded in relief, saying, “Then I can rest a.s.sured.”

Su Jian’an was speechless. “Is it because Song Jiqing is good-looking?”

The matter between Song Jiqing and Ye Luo was just an interlude. Xu Youning was the heroine of today’s story.

Su Jian’an pointed at the door and said, “Doctor Liu, let me walk you out.”

As soon as they went out of the ward, Doctor Liu asked Su Jian’an, “Do you want to ask me something?”

“No,” Su Jian’an shook her head with a smile, “I just want to tell you that you’ll be fine.”

This time, it was Doctor Liu’s turn to be stunned. “What do you mean?” she asked.

“I know Kang Ruicheng. I’m very clear about what kind of person he is. You must have been frightened when you dealt with him,” Su Jian’an smiled slightly and her soft look and voice were particularly rea.s.suring, “We will arrange a place for you to stay and protect you from Kang Ruicheng. You are safe now.”

Doctor Liu had been involved in Xu Youning and Kang Ruicheng’s affairs for no reason. When she thought of it occasionally, she would sometimes regret having attended to Xu Youning.

Over the past few days when she was hiding here, she lived in fear all the time.

Su Jian’an’s words rea.s.sured her.

Doctor Liu’s eyes suddenly reddened and she nodded at Su Jian’an, saying, “Thank you, Mrs. Lu.”

“Not at all,” Su Jian’an kept smiling, “We may have to trouble you with Youning’s matter in the future. I hope you can help us.”

“I’d love to,” Doctor Liu nodded and promised.

Su Jian’an asked her subordinates to send Doctor Liu back and then returned to the suite.

Mu Sijue was alone in the living room. He stood in front of the French windows, smoking, without any regard that this was a ward.

Su Jian’an didn’t like the smell of cigarettes. But at this time, Mu Sijue needed this cigarette.

She walked over and whispered, “Sijue, let’s talk about Youning.”

Mu Sijue took a deep drag on his cigarette and did not reply.

Su Jian’an thought that a person as powerful as Mu Sijue needed time to digest so much bad news.

When she was about to go out and leave Mu Sijue alone, she heard Mu Sijue saying—

“I totally misunderstood her.”
