Adorable Baby: CEO’s Amnesiac Ex-wife - Chapter 28
He knew that if he left her alone at home, she would be more likely to have problems than she was now. If she stayed in the store, at least there would be some customers who would distract her and a good friend like Grey would be able to talk to her anytime.
During the evening, Lu Kewei prepared dinner. However, when he was cutting vegetables, he accidentally cut his finger, causing red blood to continuously flow out from the tiny wounds. She was stunned for a moment before reacting. The water was pure and transparent, but even if a single drop of blood were to enter it, it would never return to how it was before. Song Zixiu, on the other hand, was like a lot of blood that dripped into her originally peaceful life, unable to return to her original state.
While Qin Zheng was eating, he saw a Band-Aid on Lu Kewei’s finger. He quickly put down his chopsticks and asked, “When did you hurt your finger?”
Lu Kewei replied carelessly, “Just now, when I was chopping the vegetables, I wasn’t careful …”
Qin Zheng was still worried and asked: “Is the wound deep?”
“It’s just a very shallow wound,” Lukwey said hurriedly.
Qin Zheng acted as if she hadn’t heard him, “I’ll wash the dishes later. Wait for me. I’ll treat you a bit more. At least you have to dispel the poison.”
Lu Kewei did not want her to worry, so he hurriedly said, “Auntie, it’s really just a small wound. You don’t have to be so nervous.”
Qin Zheng frowned at her, “Don’t take your body too lightly.” There was no room for doubt in his words, and Lu Kewei could no longer refute him.
After the meal, Qin Zheng quickly washed the dishes and went to find the medicine cabinet at home. He sat down next to Lu Kewei and ripped open the Band-Aid on her finger. It was probably because of the water she touched after getting injured. The wound was a bit pale and the wound looked small, but it was actually not shallow at all. Qin Zheng’s frown deepened, but his actions were very gentle. First, he dispelled the poison from her wound and then replaced it with a new Band-Aid.
“Be careful not to touch the water with your fingers later.” Qin Zheng said again. He didn’t pay any more attention to her and walked into the study.
By midnight, it was already quiet outside the window. Aside from the solitary street lamp, there was only a lonely shadow.
When everything was supposed to be quiet and in the middle of a good dream, Lu Kewei’s phone rang. A message came in, and she reflexively took the phone over.
A text message from Song Zixiu was lying on his phone, saying: I will leave tomorrow, you must be happy. Signed as Song Zixiu.
For a moment, he was unable to comprehend what this text message meant. After a while, he buried his head in the pillow and began to cry. As time passed, the sound of crying became louder and louder, almost uncontrollable.
When she woke up, her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked extremely haggard. She looked at the clock on the other side of the bed. It was already past six in the morning.
As if it was just a sudden thought, Lu Kewei sat up straight like a carp and rushed into the bathroom barefooted. He washed up in an extremely short amount of time, then took out some clothes from the closet and took off his pajamas. After dressing up, he started searching for shoes. It was clearly no longer summer, but he saw a pair of relatively convenient sandals and stuffed his feet inside.
As he rushed downstairs, the temperature outside wasn’t very high. She was chilled to the core by the cold, especially her unbearably cold feet.
She looked at the car as she walked towards Edinburgh airport in a flurry. The airport was not that close, so it was impossible to walk to the airport. She panicked. She couldn’t get a taxi, so she kept walking towards the airport.
Luckily, she still managed to get a taxi. She told the driver the name of the airport in Edinburgh and quietly looked out the window. However, she was so worried that she was about to catch a fire.
Edinburgh Airport was the largest airport in Scotland and one of the largest in the UK. Luke was glad that there was only one terminal. Later on, when some staff saw her flustered look, they took the initiative to come forward and ask if there was anything they could help with.
Lu Kewei panicked as well. He forgot to check on today’s flight when he came in, but seeing the staff’s enthusiasm, she quickly replied in English, “I want to know the flight time from here to Beijing.”
The clerk nodded and led her away from the British Airways desk, where she was stationed, to ask her questions.
There weren’t many flights here to Beijing, so they quickly found out that there was only one flight today. It took off at seven in the morning, and it was just after seven.
For a split-second, Lukas was filled with despair, as if she was suddenly thrown into the sea. All that was left of her was a vast expanse of water, and she couldn’t see or hear anything, she could only feel the suffocating feeling of imminent death. Then like an abandoned puppy, she squatted down in front of the service desk, crying non-stop.
The staff member asked her anxiously in a typical Scottish accent. Lu Kewei could only shake his head, but he also noticed that there were a lot of people looking at her from the crowded hall. Realizing that something was wrong, she immediately stood up and started walking back and forth, but the tears never stopped.
After walking out of the hall, the wind outside blew her long hair and the hem of her dress. In an instant, it seemed as if it was going to be blown away by the wind.
She later took the bus back to Edinburgh Airport, which was more than ten kilometers from the city.
He cried for a long time last night, and just now he cried again. His eyes became even redder, and he did not sleep well at first, his face turning as pale as paper. From time to time, the people in the carriage would cast their gaze at the young lady with red eyes and a pale face. Some of them even wanted to step forward and ask her.
It was only a little after eight in the morning when he got off the car at the city level and returned home.
Just as she walked into the living room, she saw Qin Zheng sitting in the dining room eating breakfast. When he saw her return, he frowned and asked: “Where did you go so early in the morning?”
As if he was a walking corpse, Lu Kewei dragged his body to sit across from her. Without washing his hands, he picked up a piece of bread and started eating. He felt like his stomach was empty, as if he was looking for something to fill it up with.
Qin Zheng frowned even harder. “Wash your hands first. There’s still milk in the kitchen.”
Lu Kewei mechanically got up and went into the kitchen. He then picked up another cup of warm milk.
She sat down across from Qin Zheng. Qin Zheng asked again, “Where did you go just now?”
Lu Kewei did not reply, but three words came out of his mouth, “He’s gone.”
No matter how calm Qin Zheng was, the hand holding the toast suddenly trembled and almost lost its grip. She did not ask any more questions and already knew who the “he” was.
“I don’t have a class this morning, so it’s fine. I don’t see many daily necessities at home, so why don’t we go to a supermarket nearby? I also think you haven’t bought any new clothes in a long time. Let’s go to a shopping mall.”
Lu Kangwei did not object to Qin Zheng’s suggestion and the two went to the mall first. Lu Kewei had quite a few clothes. Qin Zheng only wanted her to come out and divert some of her attention. It just so happened that the weather had started to turn cold, so he wanted to add some autumn and winter clothes for her.
Qin Zheng had never had any concept of money. From home, she had bought a lot of expensive decorations. She had also bought a lot of clothes for him. He had bought three pieces of clothing just for his coat.
The two had originally planned to go to the mall, but they didn’t have enough money to carry her, so they just called for the car to go home.
At noon, Qin Zheng also ate dinner at home before returning to school. Lu Kewei also stayed at home for a while longer before preparing to head over to the store. Today was her evening shift.
As soon as they arrived at the store, Grey pointed to her red eyes and asked, “What’s going on with you?”
Lu Kewei smiled and replied, “I didn’t sleep well that night. It’s rare to see someone lose sleep.”
How could Grey not know about her recent situation? He sighed and went back to his work. For matters like relationships, other than relying on oneself to walk out, no one else was able to help.
He was paying attention to Qin Zheng. During dinner, she casually suggested, “Ke Wei, since you’re good at studying, how about you go back to school?”
“I don’t want to study anymore. It’s good as of now.”
Qin Zheng sighed, beginning to doubt whether she had made the wrong decision or if Lu Kangwei had fallen in love with Song Zixiu before losing his memories. Even though he did not have any memories, he still could not cut off this relationship, but other than her before losing her memories, no one else knew. However, after a moment of hesitation, Qin Zheng still told her that everything she had done was for Lu Kewei.
During the night, Luke was strolling alone outside. Unknowingly, he arrived at the banks of the Lys River. The Lys River Walk was a well-known sight in the region. There were quite a few people coming and going, and one could occasionally see people travelling here.
As he walked along the path, he looked around at the lush trees and the flowing water of the river. It was hard to imagine a man who had once drowned himself in love with Qin Zheng.
She knew that Qin Zheng wanted to tell her not to miss out on such a good man like Luo Yunfei. Otherwise, she might regret it in the future. However, Qin Zheng didn’t understand. She didn’t have any love for Luo Yunfei, and this was something she was very sure of. If she just followed Qin Guan’s instructions and stayed with Luo Yunfei, it would only harm two people.
The Lys River was indeed very beautiful. Lu Kewei hadn’t noticed it before, but his state of mind had changed after all. Water was not water, but mountains were not mountains.
She had stayed here for too long, and was about to turn back when she froze in place the moment she turned around.
It seemed as if a very long time had passed before she finally found her voice. With trembling lips, she said, “Didn’t you already return to your home country?”
Song Zixiu walked up to her and looked down at her. “I’ve already bought a plane ticket and packed my luggage, but I don’t want to leave. I just feel like I’ve forgotten something important.”
Lu Ke Wei’s eyes were filled with tears. He couldn’t even see the person in front of him clearly anymore. She choked with sobs as she asked, “Then, did you find it?”
Song Zixiu nodded, “I found it a few minutes ago.”
He threw himself into his arms and burst into tears like a child.
Song Zixiu held her, and closed his eyes and smiled.
“Song Zixiu, I regret it.” “I’m fine,” Lu Kewei said as he looked up from his arms. His face was still covered in tears, making him look extremely comical.
Song Zixiu said confidently, “I know.”
She asked, “Do you still want me?”
Song Zixiu didn’t answer, he only lowered his head and kissed her, his lips and tongue intertwined, his body sticking close together. He hugged her waist with one hand, and his other hand moved mischievously up and down her back, even slipping into the hem of her loose clothes, making intimate contact with the skin on her waist.
On the other hand, Lu Kewei’s hands were tightly wrapped around his neck, unwilling to let go even for a moment.
Some of the people who were strolling past them smiled kindly, while the younger ones whistled directly.
In the end, Lu Kewei was the most thick-skinned one. It was only after he had tapped him on the shoulder a few times that the two finally separated slightly.
Song Zixiu still didn’t want to let go. He hugged her tightly and said as if he was swearing: “This time, if you come back to me, I really won’t let go.”
