The president's wife wants to run away

Chapter 134

Consciousness slowly surged back like a tide, and I tried hard to open my heavy eyelids. The smell of disinfectant penetrated my nose, tingling my scalp, and the regular "ticking" sound of the instrument in my ears struck my nerves again and again. Where am I?

"Xue'er, Xue'er, can you hear me?" A familiar voice sounded in my ears, with a hint of trembling and incredible surprise.

I finally opened my eyes with great effort, and in the blurry vision, Zhong Yuxuan's anxious face gradually became clear. His eyes were red, his chin was covered with stubble, and he looked much more haggard, but he could not hide the joy between his brows.

"Yuxuan..." I said in a hoarse voice. I wanted to raise my hand to touch his cheek, but found that I didn't even have the strength to raise my hand.

"Don't move, you just woke up, and the doctor said you still need to rest well." Zhong Yuxuan held my hand, and the worry in his eyes did not diminish at all.

I smiled weakly and wanted to tell him that I was fine, but he stopped me. "Don't say anything. I know what you want to say. Wait until you get better. We have plenty of time."

I shut my mouth obediently and let him hold me in his arms. At this moment, I felt unprecedented peace of mind and warmth.

I don't know how long it took, but the door of the ward was pushed open and Zhong Shuhao strode in. When he saw me wake up, he was stunned at first, and then a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Luo Xue, it's great that you finally woke up." There was a barely perceptible hint of guilt in his tone.

I nodded slightly, not knowing what to say. Ever since that quarrel, there seemed to be an invisible wall between Zhong Shuhao and I. We were both very cautious, afraid of touching each other's sore spot.

"Yuxuan, take good care of Luo Xue. I will handle the company's affairs." Zhong Shuhao patted Zhong Yuxuan on the shoulder, with a hint of relief and encouragement in his tone.

Zhong Yuxuan looked at him gratefully and nodded. I knew that Zhong Shuhao was expressing his support to him and also expressing his apology to me.

"Brother, thank you." I said softly. Although my voice was weak, it contained sincere gratitude.

Zhong Shuhao smiled, said nothing, turned around and walked out of the ward.

Zhong Yuxuan and I were the only ones left in the ward. We snuggled up to each other, feeling the preciousness of this lost and recovered moment.

"Xue'er, you don't know how scared I am..." Zhong Yuxuan's voice was a little choked, "The doctor said you..."

He didn't say anything more, but I understood what he meant. I had been through a near-death experience, and he had been through the worst moment of his life.

"I'm fine, aren't I?" I smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, I'm blessed with a good fortune and I won't be defeated that easily."

He held my hand tightly, tears glistening in his eyes.

Just then, Lin Xiaofeng pushed the door open hurriedly, with a hint of excitement and solemnity on his face.

"Yuxuan, I found out some things..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhong Yuxuan.

"If you have anything to say, let's talk later." There was a hint of displeasure in Zhong Yuxuan's tone. He didn't want anything to disturb the time we were alone together.

"But..." Lin Xiaofeng wanted to say something, but when he saw my inquiring look, he swallowed the words back.

"It's okay, just go ahead and talk. I'm fine." I smiled at Lin Xiaofeng and motioned for him to continue.

"I found out that the mysterious man has close ties with an overseas criminal organization. They..." Lin Xiaofeng lowered his voice and told everything he had found out.

My heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came over me...

Lin Xiaofeng's words were like pebbles that hit the calm lake surface one after another, stirring up thousands of waves. My heartbeat began to speed up, and a chill ran up my spine. Foreign criminal organizations, mysterious people... These words were like the tongues of venomous snakes, carrying a creepy and dangerous aura.

Zhong Yuxuan's face also became solemn, his brows knitted tightly, and a sharp light flashed in his deep eyes. "Go on." He uttered two words briefly, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

"I found out that this organization has long been engaged in transnational drug trafficking, arms smuggling and other illegal activities. It is powerful and cruel." Lin Xiaofeng paused, glanced at my pale face, lowered his voice and continued, "Their target this time is very likely to be you, or..."

"Or what?" Zhong Yuxuan's voice was as cold as ice, as if it could freeze the air around him.

"Or, it's your child." Lin Xiaofeng took a deep breath and made this frightening guess.

The atmosphere in the ward instantly dropped to freezing point. I had trouble breathing, as if an invisible hand had tightly grasped my throat. How could my child, a little life that had not even had a chance to see this world, become the target of those vicious criminals?

"Don't even think about it!" Zhong Yuxuan stood up suddenly, his eyes burning with anger, "I'm going to make them pay the price!"

He walked to the window, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm his excitement. After a moment, he turned around, his eyes firm and decisive.

"Xiaofeng, contact the police. I want to cooperate with them to completely eradicate this criminal organization!"

"But, Yuxuan, will this alert the enemy?" Lin Xiaofeng was a little worried, "We don't have any solid evidence against them yet..."

"I will find a way to obtain evidence." Zhong Yuxuan said firmly, leaving no room for doubt. "I can't let Xue'er and the child live in danger anymore! I want to create a safe environment for them!"

His words were sonorous and powerful, and every word was full of strength, which gradually calmed my originally fearful and uneasy heart. I knew that as long as he was there, my child and I would be fine.

Lin Xiaofeng nodded to show that he understood. He took out his cell phone and walked outside the ward to contact the police.

Zhong Yuxuan and I were the only ones left in the room. He walked to the bed, gently held my hand, his eyes full of guilt and pity.

"I'm sorry, Xue'er. It's my fault. I made you suffer."

I shook my head, held his big hand with my backhand, and gave him a comforting smile. "It's okay, Yuxuan, I believe you, we will get through this together." I was awakened by a gentle touch, like a feather brushing across my cheek, itchy and very comfortable. I tried to open my heavy eyelids, and a familiar face appeared in my blurred vision.

"Yuxuan..." I called weakly, my voice was very hoarse.

He grabbed my hand in surprise, and the ecstasy in his eyes could not be concealed: "Xue'er, you're awake! You're finally awake!"

I felt dizzy and my head was not clear. I only remembered that I was awakened by a severe abdominal pain that night, and then I lost consciousness...

"The child...our child..." I struggled to get up, but Zhong Yuxuan gently held me down.

"Don't worry, the baby is fine. The doctor said it was just a little premature. It's in the incubator now and will be out in a few days." His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze in March, soothing my inner anxiety.

I turned my head and looked around, and found myself lying in a hospital ward. The smell of disinfectant made me frown uncomfortably.

At this time, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Zhong Shuhao and Lin Xiaofeng walked in.

"Xue'er, you finally woke up, that's great!" Zhong Shuhao also showed a relieved smile on his face.

Lin Xiaofeng rushed to the bed with an excited look on his face: "Sister-in-law, you are finally awake! You don't know that Brother Xuan was almost going crazy during the time you were unconscious!"

I smiled at them gratefully and signaled that I was fine.

In the next few days, I gradually learned that while I was in a coma, the police, with the cooperation of Zhong Yuxuan and Lin Xiaofeng, had obtained a large amount of criminal evidence of that criminal organization and arrested them all in one fell swoop.

"Who is that mysterious man?" I couldn't help but ask. Ever since Lin Xiaofeng said the three words "mysterious man", this question has been lingering in my mind and can't be shaken off.

Zhong Yuxuan's expression became a little solemn. He was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke: "We found out that the mysterious man is actually..."

Before he could finish his words, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open and a doctor in a white coat walked in.

"Mrs. Zhong, you need to rest now. Let's talk about it when you feel better." The doctor interrupted Zhong Yuxuan in a serious tone.

Zhong Yuxuan frowned somewhat dissatisfiedly, but in the end he said nothing. He just patted my hand gently, signaling me to listen to the doctor.

Although I was full of questions in my mind, I also knew that now was not the time to ask them, so I could only suppress my curiosity and close my eyes to rest.

However, the identity of that "mysterious man" weighed heavily on my heart like a huge rock, making me unable to feel at ease...

After the doctor left, I lay in bed, but I couldn't fall asleep. Who was that "mysterious man"? Why did he want to kill me? Could it be that all this was really related to the mystery of my life?

I was just daydreaming when Zhong Yuxuan came back. He sat beside the bed, held my hand, and said in a heavy tone, "Xue'er, I have already found out everything about that mysterious man."

I sat up suddenly and asked anxiously, "Who is it? Why did he do this?"

Zhong Yuxuan took a deep breath and said slowly: "It's... Zhong Mingyuan."

"Zhong Mingyuan?" I widened my eyes in disbelief. "Why would it be him? Why would he do this?"

Zhong Mingyuan is Zhong Yuxuan's uncle, and he has always been eyeing the Zhong Group. Over the years, Zhong Yuxuan has tried his best to deal with him. But I really can't understand why he wants to attack me?

Seeing my puzzled look, Zhong Yuxuan explained: "He has admitted that he was the one who ordered all this. He did this because he knew your true identity, and he was afraid that once you returned to the Li family, you would threaten his position in the Zhong Group."

"My real identity?" I was even more confused. "What's wrong with my real identity? Why is he scared?"

Zhong Yuxuan was silent for a moment before he said, "Xue'er, do you remember that I told you before that you are actually the real daughter of the Li family?"

I nodded. I have always remembered this incident. It was for this reason that I was involved in this feud between wealthy families.

"In fact, the Li family has been secretly looking for a suitable bone marrow match for you over the years. And Zhong Mingyuan, he found out from somewhere that you are the Li family's missing daughter, and your bone marrow can save his son. So, he..."

Having said that, Zhong Yuxuan did not say anything else, but I know that he must have wanted to say that, so Zhong Mingyuan tried every means to get rid of me to prevent future troubles.

I suddenly felt creepy, and a chill ran from the soles of my feet to the top of my head. I never expected that the truth would be like this. I always thought that I was just an innocent girl involved in the feud between wealthy families, but I didn't expect that I was also one of the protagonists of this conspiracy.

"What should we do now?" I grabbed Zhong Yuxuan's hand and asked anxiously.

Zhong Yuxuan held my hand with his backhand and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Don't worry, I have called the police, and the police will bring him to justice soon."

At this time, the door of the ward was pushed open and Zhong Shuhao walked in. His face was a little haggard, but his eyes were unusually firm.

"Yuxuan, leave this matter to me." He walked to the bedside and said in a heavy tone, "I will unite with other people in the family to fight against Zhong Mingyuan, and will never let him hurt you and Xue'er again."

Looking at the two men in front of me, a warm current surged in my heart. I knew that no matter how difficult the future would be, I would no longer be alone. Outside the window, the first rays of morning light penetrated the clouds and cast soft light into the ward. My consciousness also gradually returned with this ray of sunlight.

"Xue'er, you're awake!" I heard Zhong Yuxuan's surprised voice in my ears. I tried hard to open my heavy eyelids, and what caught my eye were his bloodshot eyes that could not hide his joy.

"Yuxuan..." My voice was so hoarse, and my throat felt like it was burned by fire.

Zhong Yuxuan quickly poured a cup of warm water and handed it to me, "Drink slowly."

I drank a few sips of water and felt much better. I looked around and saw Zhong Shuhao and Lin Xiaofeng standing by my bed. When they saw me wake up, they smiled with relief.

"Xiaoxue, you finally woke up, that's great!" Lin Xiaofeng grabbed my hand excitedly, his eyes slightly red.

I smiled weakly, "I'm sorry to have worried you."

Zhong Shuhao patted the back of my hand and said gently, "I'm glad you're okay. Have a good rest."

In the following days, Zhong Yuxuan stayed by my side, feeding me, cleaning my body, telling me stories, and taking care of me meticulously. His eyes were full of pity and love, making me feel unprecedented warmth and security.

"Xue'er, you don't know how scared I was during the time you were in a coma." One night, Zhong Yuxuan sat by the bed, holding my hand, and said in a low voice, "I was afraid that you would leave me, and that I would never see your smile again..."

There was a hint of sob in his words, and my heart warmed up. I held his hand and whispered, "Silly boy, I'm fine, aren't I? I want to grow old with you."

Zhong Yuxuan held my hand tightly in his palm. His palm was warm and strong, as if giving me unlimited strength.

After this incident, I clearly felt that Zhong Yuxuan's feelings for me had changed. He was no longer as overbearing and strong as before, but became more gentle and considerate.

After this incident, the Zhong family regained their former harmony. Zhong Mingyuan was arrested by the police, and his conspiracy was made public. Because of this incident, other family members became more united to jointly safeguard the interests and reputation of the Zhong family.

Everything seemed to be going in a good direction. However, my heart was always shrouded in a lingering shadow. The mystery of my life had not yet been solved, and I always felt that there would be a bigger storm waiting for me...
