Days pa.s.sed and s.h.i.+ Enxi a.s.signed personal a.s.sistants for Zi Xuan and Fan Xiao Yao since she was becoming busy as a Director.
At the end of the week, Lu Mello finally arrived back in China. While he was on his way, he decided to give s.h.i.+ Enxi a call but when he turned on his phone, he saw that he received a lot of missed calls from Lu Weichun.
She has been trying to call him since earlier.
He was about to call her back when his phone began ringing, Lu Weichun was calling him again.
For her to call him like this... What could be the reason?
For some reason, he couldn"t help but worry. He answered the call, "Xiao Chun?"
"Finally! Why are you not answering my previous calls?!"
"I just got off the airport. What"s the matter? Why do you sound... panicked?"
Based on the background noise on Lu Weichun"s side, he could tell that she was driving. Not just that... She was driving at a fast speed.
"Gege, I"m being followed..." Lu Weichun"s coughing voice followed.
"d.a.m.n it..." She muttered but her weak voice was clearly heard by Lu Mello.
He became alarmed upon hearing his sister that way. He straightened his back and quickly asked, "Where are you?"
"I"m on my way to our villa. I"m just trying to lose them first before heading there."
"Keep your GPS on, alright? I"ll be there in no time." Even if Lu Mello tried to sound calm, he was anxious and his hand was trembling.
He turned to Liu Ying, "Stop the car."
"Yes, sir."
"Get out!"
"Huh?"
Lu Mello went out of the car"s backseat and pulled Liu Ying out of the driver"s seat. He was in a hurry to drive it so as soon as he got in, he drove at full speed.
"Brother... I"m scared..." Lu Weichun"s trembling voice was heard from the other line since the call was still on. "My sight is becoming blurry... I"m losing too much blood... It"s too painful..."
Lu Mello"s heart sank when he heard his sister"s s.h.i.+vering voice. Just by how she spoke, he could tell how scared she really was. "I"m coming, Xiao Chun! I"m coming!"
Lu Weichun felt her consciousness was fading away. She knew that her brother wouldn"t be able to reach her on time, "It"s her... Be careful of her, Gege..."
"Her? Who are you talking about?"
"S-s.h.i.+ Enxi..."
It was as if everything stopped when Lu Weichun heard s.h.i.+ Enxi"s name. She was... behind this?
"Enxi... s.h.i.+ Enxi"s-"
A loud crash was heard and the call was disconnected.
"Xiao Chun? Weichun!!"
Lu Mello"s heart raced, the feeling he has at that moment was similar to the time where he was about to lose s.h.i.+ Enxi in his previous life.
He tried to call Lu Weichun again but he couldn"t anymore.
Lu Mello refused to believe that Lu Weichun had an accident. She was a stubborn and troublesome girl! She was going to be okay, right? Right?
(Four hours ago...)
s.h.i.+ Enxi woke up, feeling unwell. Even if she felt feverish, she didn"t want to skip work.
She headed to her work that way. While she was busy with some files, Lu Weichun came in.
s.h.i.+ Enxi raised her head and raised a brow upon seeing Lu Weichun, "What are you doing here?"
"Am I not allowed to visit my sister-in-law?"
"If you"re just going to make a problem here, I suggest you leave. I"m busy right now so I can"t entertain you."
Lu Weichun pouted, "You didn"t give me a reply!"
s.h.i.+ Enxi"s brow twitched in annoyance. Was this girl an idiot? Did she have to visit her just to tell her that?
"I"m busy."
Lu Weichun puffed out her cheeks. She was actually inviting her to have lunch with her that day but receiving no reply from s.h.i.+ Enxi, she didn"t have a choice but to get to her instead.
She was refusing her calls and was only seeing her messages. Can"t she at least appreciate the effort she was making to get along with her?
Lu Weichun walked towards her and held her wrist. She was about to pull her when she noticed how hot she was. "You... Do you have a fever?"
"I don"t have a fever so can you kindly let go?"s.h.i.+ Enxi glared at her.
Lu Weichun let go of her wrist and instead, she placed her hand on her forehead. "Xixi, you"re burning!"
Lu Weichun"s loud voice was giving s.h.i.+ Enxi a headache. She skipped breakfast since she didn"t have an appet.i.te so she felt really weak at that moment.
"Let"s go to the hospital."
"No, I"m fine."
"Stop being stubborn! If Gege was here, he would surely drag you out. Besides, if you continue to leave this untreated, your fever will get worse and you"re just going to give a problem to others here."
s.h.i.+ Enxi pursed her lips tight. What Lu Weichun said was correct but she never liked hospitals at all ever since her parents died. She couldn"t bear to stay long in a building filled with sick people.
"I"ll just call Huang Li, he"s a doctor."
s.h.i.+ Enxi took her phone and tried to call him but his phone was off. He would only turn off his phone whenever he was preparing for surgery.
"Looks like he"s busy." Lu Weichun crossed her arms. "You need to go to the hospital."
She heaved out a sigh in defeat, "I"ll go... But you have to come with me."
"Well, duh, I"m obviously coming with you. I can"t let a sick person drive."
In the end, s.h.i.+ Enxi didn"t have a choice but to go to the hospital with Lu Weichun. While on their way, s.h.i.+ Enxi fainted in the car because of her weak body.
