“It’s because you’re so close. If I’m in that position he would’ve caught me instead.”
Lu Ning:
Lu Ning turned around and raised her hand to peel Huo Jinyan’s fingers off,
but this person was too strong. She could not remove them even if she tried.
In the end, Lu Ning gave up. “How is this person so strong even while dreaming?! Isn’t he injured?! Why is he still so strong?!”
Gu Zi strolled over from behind, holding something that looked like a saw. “Then, why don’t we saw them off then?”
Lu Ning: No, no, no. Let’s try some other methods first.”
“Oh.” Gu Zi took the object with him and left.
Gu Chen chuckled and looked at Lu Ning. “Wait a little longer. When he regains some consciousness, or after his dream ends, he should let go. I’ll get you a chair.”
Lu Ning stood there helplessly. She tried to leave again, but still could not pry her hand away. However, she heard Huo Jinyan say something.
He said, “Mom…
Lu Ning was stunned. Gu Chen was stunned. Even Chu Ting, who was leaning against the door frame and peering in, was stunned.
“The heck did he call me?
Lu Ning was baffled.
“Mom??”
Her voice even rose a little.
She turned around and saw Huo Jinyan’s pale face, sweat beading on his forehead. He looked rather pitiful. So, she sat on the chair Gu Chen had brought over.
If he calls me Mom, then so be it.
She raised her hand and took a piece of cloth from the side to wipe his sweat.
Huo Jinyan tightened his grip. “Fire! Hot!”
He yelled these two words intermittently. Lu Ning sighed.
It was not that she had not investigated Huo Jinyan before. That night, when Shen Yunci unintentionally mentioned that Huo Jinyan had returned, she had asked Gu Zi to send her a report on Huo Jinyan. Although it was supposed to be comprehensive, there was not much information—it was all just rumors and hearsay. On the contrary, his childhood experiences were quite detailed.
His mother died in a fire while he was still young; if he had not been rescued, he would have been reduced to ashes in that blaze as well. His father—the outstanding eldest son of the Huo family, Huo Ming—gradually became depressed because he missed his late wife too much. In the end, after sitting in
front of his late wife’s tombstone for a night, he departed from this world.
It must be very difficult to have lost one’s parents at such a young age.
In the end, his grandfather could not give him that kind of parental love.
Lu Ning propped her chin on her hand and looked at Huo Jinyan’s face.
He had probably inherited all the good points of his parents. It was really difficult to find another face like this in the world.
Even though he was injured and in such a sorry state, she still saw some semblance of a shattered beauty in his features.
Huo Jinyan’s grip did not loosen. In his daze, he seemed to have opened his eyes once, and when he saw Lu Ning’s face, his grip tightened.
In the end, Lu Ning had no choice. She could not really saw them off like Gu Zi had said, so she called Lu Jingzhi and said that she would not be going back tonight, and would pick him up to go to the racecourse tomorrow morning.
Lu Jingzhi was very worried and asked where Lu Ning was. In the end, he made a video call and was relieved to see the familiar Gu Chen and Gu Zi beside Lu
Ning.
Lu Ning took a deep breath and put down her phone.
Gu Zi sighed from behind. “Children are so hard to fool these days.”
Lu Ning could not help but laugh. “Maybe it’s just this particular child that’s not easy to deceive.”
“You haven’t eaten, have you? I’ll get you something.”
However, when the food was brought back, Lu Ning had fallen asleep by the bed. Huo Jinyan was still gripping her wrist tightly.
Gu Zi wanted to bring out the saw again. “I really should just saw it off!”
Gu Chen quickly pulled him back. “Let’s have Ning’ning eat when she wakes up. Go get a blanket for her..”
