《Love's Vicissitudes: A Pursuit of Beloved Wife》C44. Aggressively Playing Favorites

Yuexi feels the warmth in her heart. It is a kind of feeling that she couldn't tell exactly. Looking into his purposeful stare, she misses a few heartbeats. Then she turns around and looks away, with her hands on both sides of her body clenched. Li Fengjue already has a woman that he loves, and she is just a tool.
For the following period of time they keep silent. If it weren’t for Lin Chuchu's family who came here and made a scene, maybe they wouldn’t have spoken a single word today. Mother Lin directly comes to Yuexi, grabs the clothes on her chest, and says in a rage, "If anything happens to my daughter, I will make your life miserable!"
"You misunderstood the situation. She and I were just colleagues, and it was not my fault for what happened to her ..." Mother Lin stares at her, not letting Yuexi finish her words, "If it weren’t for you, how could you be so kindly and stay here? It is your guilty conscience that makes you stay! "
"I'm here only because we were colleagues before and I just wanted to help out of kindness." "You had any good intentions? Don't lie to me, you have to pay at least half a million to make compensation, judging by how serious Chuchu is hurt! Otherwise, I will sue you!" Mother Lin screams in so sharp a voice that a few nurses have to come over and persuade her. But she still won’t give a break.
Yuexi tries hard to shake off the hands of Mother Lin and says it in a cold voice, “Stop being that hysterical! The reason why I won’t start a fuss about it is in consideration of your age!” “You!” Mother Lin is pissed off. She directly sits on the ground, screaming as she cries, “Someone is going to beat me to death!”
The noise sounds particularly harsh in the silent hospital. Suddenly, a man runs through the corridor in a hurry, comes here, and tries to lift her off the ground. But she even makes a more terrible scene. "Yangyang, you must do your mother justice! This woman beats me!" She waves both her hands and feet, continuing to make a scene.

Lin Yangyang stands up in a sudden, staring fiercely at Bai Yuexi. "You vicious woman, see how I am going to teach you a lesson today!" He says as he raises his hand to slap Yuexi. The moment Yuexi subconsciously wants to dodge it, a black shadow suddenly appears in front of her and stops Lin Yangyang with his strong wide palm.
Li Fengjue twists his arm with one hand. It makes Lin Yangyang yell in pain, "Let go of me! Ah! My arm is about to be broken!" Li Fengjue looks very serious. He stares Lin Yangyang with a pair of deep eyes, manifesting a chilling feeling. Seeing that something goes sour, Mother Lin quickly gets up from the ground. She beats Li Fengjue's arm with her hand and screams in her shivering sharp voice, "You let go of my son!"
"How can you bully my woman?" Yuexi stands behind him and looks at his tall figure. She feels the warmth in her heart and her eyes slightly turn red. His cold and ruthless voice now sounds so sweet. Looking at Lin Yangyang's twisted and painful face, Yuexi whispers, "Let him go."
Li Fengjue frowns and says in a cold voice, "Can you really endure this?" Yuexi slowly steps forward, puts her slender fingers on his wrist, and says, "There is no need to be angry with him." What's more, she is indeed responsible for this matter. Li Fengjue hums coldly and eventually lets him go.
Lin Yangyang grits his teeth in pain, gives Li Fengjue a frightened look, and then hides behind Mother Lin. Taking out all the cash from the bag, Yuexi hands it to Mother Lin, "Use the money to buy her some nutritional supplements." Mother Lin takes the money, glances at her with some disgust, and says, "It's only 800 yuan. Who do you think I am? A beggar?"
Seeing that Yuexi is such a pushover, Mother Lin pulls her arm and says, "You are not allowed to leave before I get ten thousand yuan today!" Li Fengjue steps forward and says in a cold voice, " If you don’t let go of her, believe it or not, I will break your arm! " Mother Lin knows that Li Fengjue is tough, so she takes a step back, and immediately stops harassing Yuexi.

Yuexi raises her eyes and looks at him gratefully. Since Lin Chuchu's mother is here, she doesn't need to stay any longer, so she wants to leave with the bag. However, Lin Yangyang immediately rushes forward to stop Yuexi after Mother Lin gives him a look. Lin Yangyang says, "You can't leave the hospital until my sister has recovered! Leave money or stay here!"
Although Mother Lin and her son have put away their fierce and evil expressions now, it seems that they still plan to keep Yuexi here. Yuexi frowns slightly. Before she begins to speak, Li Fengjue punches Lin Yangyang first. With a heavy sound, Lin Yangyang is knocked down to the ground. He covers his mouth in pain and blood runs through his fingers.
"Ah, my son, are you okay? Don't scare me ..." With the veins suddenly bulging out of his head, Li Fengjue's turns into a cold face, and says in his cold voice, "If you dare to harass her again, the hospital will be the final place for you." "Okay, okay, we won’t anymore! " Mother Lin is so scared that she can't even look directly at Li Fengjue.
When Mother Lin and son stand up, they still remember to give Yuexi a scary look. Yuexi is shocked, now she realizes what bullying really means. When she is about to grab the bag and walks out of the door, she suddenly remembers that she came here to get the stomach medicine. Therefore, she turns around to the registration and wants to take the medicine. Seeing this, Li Fengjue waves at Li Fengye, turns around and runs towards Yuexi.
Yuexi walks quickly ahead. Hearing the footsteps behind her, she couldn't help but frown. When she reaches the intersection, she takes a deep breath, stops, and then turns around. But at that moment, she directly bumps into Li Fengjue's chest. "You!" Rubbing her sore nose, Yuexi raises her delicate face to look at him, "Can you stop being so omnipresent?"
"I'm afraid you are not safe to be on the road alone. I should walk you home." His voice is soft and the expression on his face also becomes nicer. Yuexi looks at him in confusion. This man is really difficult to understand. They were like enemies in the past two days. But now their relationship changes even faster than turning the pages. "Don’t forget, we are now in a cooperative relationship. If I’m feeling a little bit unhappy, maybe your company’s contract is ..."
Staring at him fiercely, Yuexi says, "aren't you going to take me home? Where is your car?" Li Fengjue curls up the corners of his mouth to give a smile on his smug face, then opens his palm in front of her. Looking at his slim fingers, Yuexi gives him a suspicious look, "What if you run away? Come with me!"
She feels both angry and funny at the same time. "I have no money on me now. Why wouldn't I take a free ride? I'm not stupid." As soon as she finishes his words, Li Fengjue takes her hand and says with a smile, "You stupid woman. Haven’t you done enough stupid things?" He says as he drags her towards the parking lot. Yuexi feels the warmth of his hand and the tightness of her chest. She looks at his side face with her bright eyes. A warm feeling runs through her body. Her heart beats irregularly and it feels like that something is about to come out.

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month.
