Chapter 1327: Chapter 1327 There is No Regret dicine to Take
At this mont, Lu Feili appeared like a capricious woman, completely devoid of her usual assertiveness and arrogance.
Lu Feili didn’t get a response from Shen Chi. She took a big step forward, grabbed Shen Chi’s arm, and shouted, “Where exactly is Chenglang? What have you done to him? Is his life in danger?”
Perhaps Lu Feili’s voice was too loud, Xu Chaomu was startled and hurriedly ran out.
Shen Chi shook off Lu Feili’s arm with an indifferent expression, “Follow .”
Once outside, Xu Chaomu saw Lu Feili!
This was the third ti she had seen Lu Feili, a completely different Lu Feili.
Lu Feili looked tired, as if she had just co off a plane, and her hair was no longer as neat as before, but instead, she seed sowhat disheveled.
Shen Chi strode ahead, and Lu Feili followed suit. Xu Chaomu, feeling uneasy, also quickly followed.
When they reached the intensive care unit, Shen Chi stopped.
“Chenglang!” Lu Feili scread in heartbreaking agony.
Xu Chaomu felt a twinge of pain in her heart.
A nurse quickly ca over and quietly reminded in English, “Please keep quiet.”
Lu Feili covered her face as tears suddenly stread down; she was sobbing uncontrollably.
Xu Chaomu was touched again, her eyes moistening once more as the emotions she had just composed surged back.
Shen Chi wrapped his arm around her waist, holding her close in his embrace.
Lu Feili repeated Nie Chenglang’s na over and over, choking with sobs and grief: “Chenglang, Chenglang… why… Chenglang…”
Shen Chi didn’t know what to say; at tis like these, everyone was at fault.
Lu Feili eventually collapsed to the ground, crying, her eyes empty and numb.
This was the first ti Xu Chaomu had seen such a helpless Lu Feili, as in her mind, Lu Feili had always been strong and proud.
But at this mont, Lu Feili was crying so sadly, without any care for her image.
“Chenglang… I’m sorry… Chenglang… I should never have let you co to the United States…” Lu Feili murmured to herself.
“You knew seven years ago that Shen Shihan was engaged in illegal and criminal business practices, yet seven years later you’re still collaborating with Shen Shihan!” Xu Chaomu finally spoke up, “You jumped into the fire pit yourself, but why drag Chenglang into it? Don’t you know he is very kind? He never wanted to take over your company!”
“Chenglang…” Lu Feili wiped her tears, her eyes showing regret and resentnt.
“I think, Chenglang has made it clear to you more than once that he doesn’t want the Feili Group, he wants to start his own business. But you, you always like to influence his thoughts in everything, never giving him freedom, even in marriage,” Xu Chaomu said, sowhat agitated.
She had held these words in her heart for a long ti.
When Nie Chenglang talked to her about these things, his eyes always had a trace of shadow.
Xu Chaomu had spent five years with him day and night; how could she not understand Nie Chenglang’s truest thoughts!
But now, not only was his future ruined, even his life was threatened.
Lu Feili kept silent, no longer confronting Xu Chaomu with the pride she once had.
She bowed her head, leaning her hands against the wall, yet her shoulders still shook uncontrollably.
She was crying, like a helpless child.
“Chenglang, I’m sorry… I didn’t expect… Chenglang…”
“Don’t look for excuses. It’s not that you didn’t expect it; you just took your chances. You always thought, ‘This is the last ti. After this last deal, I will gain great profits. Just one last risk!'” Xu Chaomu said.
Lu Feili seed to have had her deepest concerns exposed by Xu Chaomu, and she stayed silent, rely crying.
For a mont, the only sound in the corridor was the low sobbing of Lu Feili.
Xu Chaomu stopped talking, biting her lip in anger.
Shen Chi pulled her into his embrace, gently stroking her shoulders.
The floor was cold, but Lu Feili seed unaware of anything, her gaze was particularly empty.
“Chenglang… co back… You must be okay… Mom won’t force you to do anything anymore… Co back… Be alright…”
Lu Feili murmured to herself, staring at the white wall in front of her.
Xu Chaomu couldn’t hold back anymore, lowering her voice, “Lu Feili, do you think regret is of any use now? Why did you wait for sothing to happen to him before you knew to feel remorse? Are you still his biological mother? Why have you never considered things from his perspective?”
Xu Chaomu threw out several questions one after another, and Lu Feili couldn’t answer any of them.
But Lu Feili knew… there is no cure for regret in this world.
She covered her face, crying without a voice, rendered speechless by Xu Chaomu’s questioning.
She truly hadn’t expected such an outco; when she asked Nie Chenglang to send money over, she thought it was just the usual, a plain transaction.
Having said all this, Xu Chaomu also began to cry.
She lay in Shen Chi’s arms, clinging to his waist without letting go.
“Shen Chi… maybe, for Chenglang, this is a kind of release…” Xu Chaomu sobbed quietly.
Shen Chi was silent; perhaps…
“I never thought sothing would happen to Chenglang, I wanted him to be safe and to have a happy future,” Xu Chaomu said. “Last ti, we were still having coffee together, and we talked on the phone for a long ti… He also said he wanted to see Xiaobao again…”
Xu Chaomu buried herself in Shen Chi’s chest, weeping bitterly.
At this very mont, Xu Chaomu’s feelings were just as difficult as Lu Feili’s. All the monts from those five years in Paris slowly resurfaced before her eyes…
Nie Chenglang would take her to celebrate Christmas, to get-togethers, and they adopted Wealth together…
“I know how important he was to you,” Shen Chi said frankly.
In those five years, he was absent from her life; if it weren’t for Nie Chenglang, he might never have seen Xu Chaomu again in his lifeti.
Xu Chaomu’s throat was tight, sore and rough, a pain that she could not voice.
Lu Feili kept crying, her makeup sared, leaving only the sound of two won’s crying in the corridor.
…
After that day, Lu Feili did not leave but located a hotel near the hospital to stay in. She entrusted the dostic affairs to her subordinates and sat silently by Nie Chenglang’s side alone.
She admitted that Xu Chaomu’s words were true, but she had no path to turn back on.
If possible, she wished she was the one who was seriously injured, not Nie Chenglang.
After that day, Xu Chaomu inford the butler Ling, asking her to co to the United States with Xiaobao.
She charged butler Ling with the responsibility to care for the daily needs of Shen Chi, Xiao Mo, and Mo Shuifu, while she herself rushed back and forth between several hospital rooms with Xiaobao.
As soon as Xiaobao arrived at the hospital, he was scared, always timidly hiding by Xu Chaomu’s side.
“Mumu, hand Xiaobao over to my assistant, let them take him out to have fun; don’t stay in the hospital, it’s too depressing,” Shen Chi said.
Xu Chaomu lifted Xiaobao and sat him on the bed, glancing at Shen Chi who was on an IV drip, “It’s okay, let him keep you company.”
