Chapter 536 The evil plot succeeds
"Bai Ningxuan, I'm really going to find someone to marry. You just lie there and relax!"
Drop drop!
Seeing the heartbeats on the monitor, Tong Shili burst into tears of excitement, but she knew this was a crucial moment and she couldn't relax for a second: "Bai Ningxuan, listen carefully, ten, nine, eight, seven... three, two, one! Okay, if you don't wake up, I'm leaving, I'm going to marry someone else!"
The heartbeat on the monitor grew faster and faster, and Tong Shili became increasingly nervous. By the end, her eyes blurred, and she choked up as if something was stuck in her throat. She told herself not to cry, but the next second, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"Bai Ningxuan, wake up! I'll agree to anything you ask for if you wake up... just wake up..."
"No, you're not allowed to... marry... anyone else..." A weak, hoarse voice escaped from his throat. With just one simple sentence, Bai Ningxuan surprised everyone. The experts quickly began to provide emergency care, while also instructing Tong Shili to continue speaking.
Tong Shili sobbed. During the few short hours that Bai Ningxuan had been unconscious, she felt as if she had walked through purgatory and endured the most severe torture. Now, hearing his voice, she was overjoyed beyond measure.
Bai Ningxuan cared about her, and it was this care that saved him from the brink of death.
She stared intently at him, talking to him incessantly, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string.
Seeing this, Chi Moqing and Yan Zuozuo breathed a heavy sigh of relief, their hands clasped tightly together, overwhelmed with emotion. The next second, Chi Moqing pulled her into a tight embrace; this was the power of love.
As long as true love exists, everything will be alright.
The gloomy sky outside the window suddenly brightened, and the darkness in the ward instantly became bright.
When Lucy opened her eyes, her body felt like it was falling apart, and she was too tired to move.
The fox was really amazing last night.
The air was still filled with his unique masculine scent. Her heart stirred, and she turned to look at the man beside her.
"Awake?" the fox asked casually, taking a sip of coffee. His shirt was unbuttoned at the top two buttons, revealing half of his chest muscles, giving him a wild, handsome look.
Lucy's heart skipped a beat, but suddenly a strange thought popped into her head: why was the fox wearing clothes?
Logically speaking, he should still be in bed. It's strange that he woke up so early, let alone had time to get dressed. This gave Lucy a strange feeling that the man she had slept with last night wasn't the one in front of her.
She threw back the covers, realizing she wasn't wearing anything. Looking at the mottled hickeys on her body, she knew there was no one else there; she was just overthinking things.
Last night's events were so intense, even the fox must be exhausted. He's having a sip of coffee to perk himself up and doesn't want to lie in bed, probably afraid he'll lose control again. Lucy has always been confident in her allure.
After taking a sip of coffee, the fox asked, "How do you plan to tell Jian Ning about this?"
When Lucy looked up, her heart skipped a beat. The fox's cold eyes were devoid of any emotion, as if the gentle man she had seen before was not him at all.
All the sweetness was extinguished by the fox's cold bucket of water, and all her beauty became embarrassing. "What are you worried about?"
"What are you worried about?" The fox looked straight at Lucy, his deep, obsidian-like eyes showing no ripples, and said calmly, "Jian Ning and I are comrades-in-arms, and this kind of relationship... is very complicated."
Lucy lowered her eyes, looking pitiful. "I'm sorry, I acted impulsively last night. But don't worry, I won't tell anyone. We...we're still friends."
The fox remained silent and took another sip of coffee. Faced with this quiet fox, Lucy felt a growing unease. She was usually a woman adept at reading people, and men were always the ones she could control; she'd never seen him so cautious, making it impossible for her to figure out what he was thinking.
She bit her lip and said softly, "A woman like me is indeed unworthy of you. Don't worry, I won't bother you again. As for Jian Ning..." Her voice choked with emotion, "After what happened, I can't continue being with him. I'll find a suitable time to talk to him and make things clear. I'll be going back to France soon..."
She paused, then continued, "No matter what, I'm very grateful to you. Thank you, Fox, for giving me such wonderful memories. I will always remember them and keep them quietly in my heart."
As she spoke with feigned grievance, a dark glint flashed in the fox's eyes. He leaned down, lifted her chin, and whispered, "Lucy, what kind of person do you take me for? Do you think I'm such an irresponsible man?"
Lucy's eyes lit up, a surge of joy welling up inside her, but a hint of sadness flashed across her face. "Last night was just a mistake. If you don't like me, don't force yourself. It's all my fault that things turned out this way; no one else needs to take responsibility for me. If you're doing this out of pity or guilt, Fox, really, you don't need to. If you keep doing this, we can't even be friends anymore."
"I pity you, I feel guilty?" The fox raised an eyebrow and asked in a strange tone.
"You know the truth in your heart, so don't worry. I'm not an unwanted woman. I just want a man who is devoted to me and gentle and considerate, so you don't need to worry about me."
The fox chuckled. "Lucy, you've misunderstood. I wouldn't sleep with a woman so casually if I hadn't made up my mind."
Lucy was taken aback, then her face flushed red. "So, you mean... no, no, no, that's impossible. The person you like is Ding Le, and being with me was just a mistake."
“I used to like her, but she didn’t like me.” The fox sighed. “She’s a woman who doesn’t talk about feelings; maybe being alone is more suitable for her. But you’re different. You need a man; you’re a woman who needs to be carefully cared for by a man. Lucy, after what happened last night, do you think we can still be so clear about things?”
"But you just now..."
"Fool, you're in such a hurry to distance yourself from me the moment you wake up, what can I say? Lucy, I just have a tiny bit of hope that you won't see me as a scoundrel, okay?"
“Fox…” Lucy was deeply moved, but biting her lip, she looked worried. “I know you’re not that kind of person, but if Jian Ning finds out, I’m worried he’ll treat you badly.”
"Love between men and women is a normal thing, and you're not married to him, so of course you have the right to make friends. If he's really angry, let him come to me." The fox put on his coat and said firmly, "I'm putting this out there today, and you should think it through. Just say the word, and I'll take care of anything for you." After saying that, the fox walked out.
Lucy was taken aback, then quickly chased after her. "There's still time, why don't you eat something before you go?"
"No need, I have something to do, I'll be going now." After saying this, the fox had already closed the door for Lucy.
Hearing the fox's voice disappear into the hallway, Lucy narrowed her eyes, a triumphant smile playing on her lips. With a click, she lit a cigarette with her lighter, elegantly illuminating the scene.
Ah, that's men for you. No matter how serious they pretend to be, they can't resist the allure of beautiful women.
Things were progressing much faster than expected, but she was still unsure about the fox…
No, the fox is merely her prey. Playing with him is fine, but when it comes to genuine feelings, he's not qualified. Her ultimate goal is Chi Moqing; everyone else is just a pawn she uses to climb to the top!
Turning to look out the window, Lucy recalled the fox's words: if she just asked, he would take care of everything for her. Very well, she'd like to see how he actually did it.
Checking the time, the fox quickened his pace, carrying breakfast. Lately, Ding Le's eyes had been filled with sadness every time he looked at him, and the thought of it made his heart ache.
He knew his goal very well. Ding Le was the woman he was destined to protect for the rest of his life, so he had to overcome all difficulties to ensure her safety. Now that she was surrounded by dangers, he couldn't just wait for the other side to make a move and let Ding Le sit and wait to die. He had to take the initiative and eliminate all the dangers around her in the shortest possible time.
Now that we've secured our targets, we're just waiting to close the net.
Although he should stay far away from Ding Le, he just couldn't help himself. He became incredibly anxious if he couldn't see her for even a short while. Especially those few hours last night in Lucy's room; he wanted to rush out several times, but he couldn't.
As they approached their doorstep, the fox quickened its pace, practically sprinting into the elevator. Upon opening the door, it saw Ding Le in the living room, staring at the refrigerator as if contemplating what to eat.
After catching his breath, he placed breakfast on the table. "Time to eat."
Ding Le was overjoyed to see Fox return. But soon, a look of sadness flashed across her face. Fox hadn't come back last night, nor had he called her. Where had he gone?
She asked Yan Zuozuo, who had no mission last night but didn't come home. Could it be that he was with Lucy?
The whole night...
Ding Le felt a pang of pain in her heart. Yes, compared to a stunning beauty like Lucy, she was indeed inconspicuous, and it was only natural that the fox would take a liking to her.
But Lucy already has Jane, so why does she still seduce the fox? Jane abandoned his wife for her, and she's not satisfied. Does she want the fox to do something crazy too?
Ding Le wanted to roar, but what right did she have to? When the fox confessed his love, she was too proud to give him a complete answer. Now that he had fallen for someone else, what right did she have to question him?
It's time to let go. Maybe she should talk to Chi Moqing again. She can no longer live with the fox. Maybe she can move out and live on her own, or even leave this place and go somewhere else. After all, she's always been alone.
She took a deep breath, but instead of eating, she turned and walked towards the bedroom.
"Let's eat," the fox said, stopping her. Seeing her forlorn look, he felt a pang of pain in his heart.
"Thank you, I'm not hungry." She walked past her, head down, and continued walking.
The fox was a good man; regardless of whether his woman was Lucy or not, she wished him happiness. It was just that she was unlucky to have missed out on such a warm and comforting person.
Seeing that she wouldn't listen, the fox took the breakfast and followed her into the bedroom.
Ding Le frowned. In the past, she would have welcomed the fox to have breakfast with her, and the two of them would exchange a few words. But now, she didn't want to spend any more time with him; she was afraid she would lose control.
She bit her lip and said, "I'm really not hungry. You go out to eat." As she spoke, she quickly glanced at the fox, her heart racing, and her face involuntarily turned red.
