The president's wife wants to run away

Chapter 66 Gradually Recovering

The first ray of sunlight in the morning poured into the room through the gap in the curtains. I slowly opened my eyes and felt the long-lost vitality. During this period of time, under Zhong Yuxuan's meticulous care, my health has been getting better day by day. Although I still think of those unpleasant pasts occasionally, every time I see Zhong Yuxuan's worried eyes, I tell myself to get better soon.

"Awake?" Zhong Yuxuan walked to the bedside with a cup of warm milk. When he saw me wake up, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I nodded, took the milk and took a sip. A warm current flowed down my throat into my stomach, dispelling the chill of the early morning.

"How do you feel today? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?" Zhong Yuxuan sat on the edge of the bed, reached out to touch my forehead, and asked with concern.

"Much better. Look, I can get out of bed and walk around now." I said, lifting the quilt and preparing to get out of bed.

"Slow down, don't be in a hurry." Seeing this, Zhong Yuxuan quickly stood up and supported me. His palms were warm and dry, giving me a sense of security.

With the help of Zhong Yuxuan, I slowly walked to the window. The sun shone on me, warm and comfortable. Looking at the vibrant scenery outside the window, I took a deep breath and felt as if I was full of energy.

"It seems that you have recovered well. You look much better than in the past few days." The speaker was Qin Xue. She was wearing a goose yellow dress today, holding a fruit basket in her hands, and had a bright smile on her face, like a ray of sunshine shining into the room.

"Qin Xue, why are you here?" I looked at her in surprise. Thanks to her often coming to chat and watch movies with me, my recovery period was not so boring.

"I came to see you. I also brought you some fresh fruits that you like." Qin Xue said as she put the fruit basket on the bedside table. Then she took my hand and looked me up and down. "Well, you look much better than a few days ago. It seems that Yuxuan has taken good care of you."

I turned to look at Zhong Yuxuan, who was standing aside, watching us quietly, with a barely perceptible smile on his face. The sunlight shone through the window onto his body, as if he had been coated with a layer of golden light, making him look even more handsome and tall.

"By the way, I also brought desserts from your favorite store today. We'll eat them together later." Qin Xue said as she took out an exquisite box from her bag.

Hearing that there were my favorite desserts, I felt even happier. When I was with Qin Xue, I always felt relaxed and happy, as if all the troubles and worries had disappeared.

However, I didn't know that, under the calm surface, Zhong Yuxuan had secretly arranged a more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for me, just to enable me to recover as soon as possible...

"By the way, Luo Xue, I heard that you like that newly opened Italian restaurant very much. Can I take you to try it tomorrow?" Qin Xue suggested enthusiastically while helping me arrange the pillows on the bed.

Before I could answer, I heard Zhong Yuxuan's cold voice: "She can't eat those things now."

I pouted in dissatisfaction, turned to look at Zhong Yuxuan, and said coquettishly: "But I haven't eaten anything outside for a long time, just let me try a little bit, okay?"

Zhong Yuxuan was not moved at all. He walked over to me and said in a serious tone, "No, your body has not fully recovered yet. You must listen to the doctor and eat the diet prepared by the nutritionist."

"But..." I wanted to fight for it again, but was stopped by Zhong Yuxuan's eyes. He turned to look at Qin Xue, and his tone softened a little: "Qin Xue, you have worked hard during this period. I will take good care of Luo Xue."

Qin Xue seemed to see my disappointment. She smiled and patted my hands, saying, "Okay, Luo Xue, your task now is to take good care of yourself. When you are fully recovered, we will go to all the restaurants you want to eat at!"

I nodded helplessly, but secretly complained in my heart: Zhong Yuxuan is so domineering, he doesn't know how to be gentle with women at all!

After watching Qin Xue leave, I sat on the bed angrily without saying a word. Seeing this, Zhong Yuxuan walked over to me, gently held me in his arms, and coaxed me gently: "Okay, don't be angry, I know you miss your previous life, but the most important thing now is to take good care of your body. When you get better, you can do whatever you want, ok?"

His embrace was warm and generous, with a faint fragrance, which gradually calmed my originally irritable mood. I raised my head, looked into Zhong Yuxuan's deep eyes, and asked, "Will you really do what you say?"

"Of course." Zhong Yuxuan lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on my forehead, and said firmly, "When have I ever lied to you?"

In the next few days, I strictly followed the diet plan prepared by the nutritionist. Although the taste was a bit light, it was nutritious. Zhong Yuxuan also specially invited a pastry chef from a Michelin three-star restaurant to make delicious and healthy desserts for me every day, so that I could satisfy my taste buds without worrying about gaining weight.

In addition to diet, Zhong Yuxuan also arranged professional rehabilitation training for me. Every morning, a kind and amiable rehabilitation therapist would come to my home to guide me in doing some simple exercises, such as walking and yoga, to help me regain my strength and flexibility.

Under Zhong Yuxuan's meticulous care, my physical condition improved day by day, and my strength gradually recovered. I began to be able to get out of bed and walk around on my own, and even walk and chat with Zhong Yuxuan in the garden.

"Look, am I recovering quickly?"

That evening, I took Zhong Yuxuan's arm and took a leisurely walk in the garden. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on us, giving us a layer of golden glow.

"Well, you recovered very well." Zhong Yuxuan looked down at me, his eyes full of doting smiles.

I looked up and looked at Zhong Yuxuan's handsome profile, my heart was filled with happiness and sweetness. Although I have experienced many twists and turns during this period, I have also felt unprecedented warmth and care.

"By the way, I want to invite Qin Xue and a few other good friends to my house for a gathering tomorrow, is that okay?" I suddenly remembered the girlfriends gathering that Qin Xue had proposed before, so I asked.

Zhong Yuxuan was slightly stunned, then nodded and agreed: "Of course, you can invite anyone you want. Do you need me to prepare anything for you?"

"No need, you've done a lot for me, leave these small things to Qin Xue and me." I smiled and shook my head, but my heart was full of anticipation for tomorrow's party. I wonder how my good friends would react when they see my current state?

The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants. I got up early and dressed up carefully with the help of Qin Xue. Looking at myself in the mirror, I could hardly believe that this was me, the once depressed and decadent Li Luoxue.

Soon, several of my good friends arrived one after another. They were all pleasantly surprised to see my changes and surrounded me to ask about my well-being. We chatted about each other's recent situation and shared the little joys of life. The whole room was filled with laughter.

"Luo Xue, you don't know, we have been worried about you during this period. Fortunately, you are okay, otherwise we don't know what to do." My good friend Lin Lin held my hand, her eyes a little red.

"Yes, Luo Xue, you must not do stupid things in the future. You must remember that you still have friends like us, and we will always be with you." Another good friend, Wang Jing, also said.

Listening to my friends' sincere words, I felt a warm current in my heart and my eyes became moist. I nodded vigorously and said, "Well, I understand. I will never do stupid things again. I will cherish my life and you friends."

After my friends left, I was still immersed in the emotion and joy. At this time, Zhong Yuxuan came over with a cup of steaming hot milk tea in his hand, handed it to me, and said, "Did you have fun today?"

"Yeah, very happy." I took the milk tea, smiled and nodded.

"That's good." Zhong Yuxuan touched my head and said softly, "I have prepared a surprise for you tonight. I hope you will like it."

I asked curiously, "What's the surprise? Can you tell me in advance?"

Zhong Yuxuan smiled mysteriously and said, "I can't tell you now, you will know in the evening."

In the evening, Zhong Yuxuan took me to an elegant restaurant with soft lighting, soothing music, and exquisite tableware, everything was full of romance.

"Why did you suddenly think of bringing me here for dinner today?" I asked curiously.

Zhong Yuxuan looked at me affectionately and said, "Because I want you to know that my love for you is as romantic and eternal as this candlelight dinner."

My heart was in a mess because of his sudden confession, and my face turned red with embarrassment.

"Luo Xue, I know you have experienced a lot and endured a lot during this period of time, but I want to tell you that no matter what happens, I will always be by your side and never leave you." Zhong Yuxuan held my hand and said in a firm tone.

His eyes were so sincere and so passionate that they seemed to melt me.

"I believe you." I raised my head, met his gaze, and said softly.

We ate this dinner slowly and seriously, as if we wanted to engrave every minute and every second into each other's memory.

After dinner, Zhong Yuxuan didn't rush to take me home, but held my hand and strolled on the street. The street lights stretched our shadows very long, as if they would never end... The moonlight poured on my face like water, and I leaned against Zhong Yuxuan, feeling more peaceful than ever before. That night's stroll seemed to melt away the barriers between us, and made me more certain that the man in front of me was a harbor I could rely on.

In the following days, under the careful care of Zhong Yuxuan and Qin Xue, I gradually came out of the haze. Zhong Yuxuan would take me for a walk in the suburbs to breathe fresh air; Qin Xue would cook delicious food for me in various ways to supplement my nutrition. They nourished me like sunshine and rain, and revitalized my dry heart.

"Luo Xue, look, this is the charity event I just signed up for, which is to help collect books for children in mountainous areas. Do you want to go with me?" One day, Zhong Yuxuan said to me excitedly, holding his mobile phone.

"Charity activities?" I was a little hesitant. Ever since that incident, I have been shutting myself off from the outside world.

"Yes, helping others will make you happy, right? Didn't you love helping others the most in the past?" Zhong Yuxuan looked at me encouragingly.

His words were like a beam of light that illuminated the depths of my heart. Yes, I used to be so enthusiastic and full of energy, why did I now trap myself in the shadow of the past?

I took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay, let's go together."

In this way, I began to try to reconnect with the outside world. Zhong Yuxuan and I participated in various charity activities, went to nursing homes to accompany lonely elderly people, and went to welfare homes to take care of children who had lost their parents... Whenever I saw the smiles on their faces, my heart was filled with warmth and strength. I seemed to have found the meaning and value of life, which was to use my own strength to help more people in need.

After a period of hard work, my body has basically recovered. Looking at the energetic self in the mirror, I realized that it was time to start over.

"Yuxuan, I want to go back to work in the company." One day, I finally plucked up the courage and told Zhong Yuxuan my thoughts.

Zhong Yuxuan put down the documents in his hand and looked at me seriously. "Have you thought about it? Your body..."

"I'm completely well now, and I want to use my abilities to create my own value," I said firmly.

Zhong Yuxuan nodded, his eyes full of relief and support, "Okay, I respect your choice, I believe you can do it."

Just as I was looking forward to a new life, something unexpected happened. That day, I received a mysterious package with no sender information, only a simple address. I curiously opened the package, but the contents made me feel like I was falling into an ice cellar.

It was a photo, and the people in the photo were me... and a man I had never seen before! We behaved as intimately as lovers. On the back of the photo, a sentence was written in bright red font: "Do you want to know the truth? Come see me."

My face turned pale instantly, and my heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand. I could hardly breathe. Who sent this mysterious package? Who was the man in the photo? What did they want to do?

Countless questions swirled in my mind, and I felt an unprecedented fear and anxiety...
