Chapter 926: Irritation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chu Lui and Xia Yixuan’s engagement was huge. Everyone who was somebody in the city was there. Xia Mingzheng stood by the side and greeted the guests, clearly in a good mood. Even though Shen Yijun’s expression was stiff the whole time, there was still a smile plastered on her face.

Despite this being Chu Lui’s third marriage, that did not affect how popular he was; neither did it affect his status. They would be loads of unmarried women throwing themselves at him even if this was his fourth, fifth, or sixth marriage.

Xia Yixuan wrapped her arms around Chu Lui’s arm possessively as she smiled sweetly. She was dressed to the nines today. A knee-length white dress wrapped around her fit body, coupled with her high heels and jewelry. She accepted all the women’s well wishes and welcomed their envy and schemes.

She heard the people congratulate her and enjoyed them b.u.t.tering up to her. She also heard others’ envious words.

Her red lips were parted as she beamed.

Lu Jinrong stood by the corner and stared coldly at the couple. He picked up a gla.s.s of wine and touched it gently as he smiled coldly.

…

Xia Ruoxin flipped through the business magazine introducing the union between the Chu Enterprise and the Xia household. There was also a live stream of the engagement. Chu Lui remained expressionless, and no one knew what he was thinking. Xia Yixuan had a big smile, her carefully farded face beaming with pride. As Xia Mingzheng talked to others happily, Shen Yijun was a little distracted. Xia Ruoxin’s gaze landed on her for a moment before she looked away.

Only Chu Jiang was present on behalf of the Chu family. As for Song Wan, she was still paralyzed so she could not be present of course.

“Why are you still looking?” Gao Yi walked in and took the magazine from her hand. He scoffed when he saw the contents. “En, engaged again. He’ll take even a woman like Xia Yixuan. He’s got a unique taste.”

Xia Ruoxin had no comment for that, but she did not like the magazine. She took it from Gao Yi’s hands and tossed it in the trash.

Gao Yi took the medicine and a gla.s.s of water.

“Time to take your medicine.”

Xia Ruoxin took the handful of medicine and put it in her mouth. The bitterness of the pills filled up her taste buds. She closed her eyes, took a huge swig of the matter, and swallowed them.

She suddenly smiled. It’s so bitter.

Unknown to her, the corners of her lips were hurt slightly; and tears slipped out of her eyes.

…

Chu Lui opened the door. Song Wan was still lying down quietly like before. He walked over and held her hand tight habitually. “Mom, when are you waking up? I got engaged today. It’s the Xia Yixuan that you like. Didn’t you want me to marry her back then? Mom, I’ll agree to it. I’ve done it. What about you? When are you going to wake up?”

He turned himself towards the window. A world blocked by the window, a soul trapped in a body.

He then stood up and covered Song Wan before he walked out. When he came up the caretakers came in for round the clock care. He wondered how long these days would last.

The doctor said she might wake up anytime or she might sleep for life.

He had still not given up hope until now because of that hope he was holding onto.

He took a shower and changed into his pajamas. He picked up a cup of milk and sat before his computer. He turned on his computer and turned on his Penguin that he had not logged onto in a long time.

By the time he noticed, he was already in.

Summer’s Not Over was his only good friend there. There was no one other than her here. However, Summer’s Not Over had not been online in a really long time. There was darkness… a little like it was caked in dust. He reached out and covered up his laptop.

He stood up again, opened his drawer, and took out a ring. At this time, there was another ring on his finger. A promise he made to another woman. He did not have room for this ring.

He took the ring on and walked to the window. He opened it and clenched his fists before he pursed his lips. He flung his hand and tossed the ring out. As for where it landed, he had no idea.

When he walked back, his leg banged into the shelf which opened its door. He only remembered it now.

It was the strange bag that Lu Jinrong had handed to him, saying that Lu Xiaohua had taken it from Xia Yixuan.

He picked up the bag from the floor. True to be told, the bag holding the item was old. A regular person would not have taken a second look at the item, not to mention him.

It was old and a little heavy. There was the stale smell of mold on it. He unzipped it. Inside it was a small gla.s.s bottle, which seemed to contain something.

He took the bottle and opened it. It smelled like medicine.

He tossed the bottle back into the bag without thinking to clean it up until the next morning. Xia Yixuan called him early in the morning. Chu Lui sat up in his bed, looking a little gloomy from the low blood pressure.

“Brother Lui, it’s the weekend today. Shall we go out and eat? I know a new place. It tastes good.”

“I understand.” Chu Lui turned off his phone and tossed it aside. He lay down, not wanting to move. He was too tired and only wanted to sleep without doing anything. Right now, he had to sacrifice his precious time to eat and shop with Xia Yixuan. He did not feel good but increasingly irritated.

He wanted to sleep a little more but found that he would not fall asleep anymore. Since last night until now, he had only slept for less than three hours. He sat up, washed up, and got changed before he left home to fulfill his duties as fiance.

However, as he was about to leave, he saw the item that he had tossed on the table last night. He took the small gla.s.s bottle from the bag and placed it in his pocket before he zipped it up and stuffed it into the shelf.
