My Secretary is a Little Sweet

Chapter 537 - Only You

Chapter 537: Only You

Apart from the Mu’s Hospital, there was nowhere else where the special blood could be prepared for her.

It was a project that not only required a large amount of original blood but also a doctor who was good at it. Money and energy were also required and all these conditions could not be met outside the country.

The time for Lu’s blood transfusion had been approaching.

Jing Yiran held Lu in his arms and murmured in a low voice as his eyes turned red. “Silly girl, I am not worth your sacrifice. Remember that no matter what happens next time, care about your own life first. I want you to stay alive!”

He knew that Lu sacrificed her own life for him.

If she had deserted him and returned to A City and begged for protection from Jing Zhongxiu, Jing Zhongxiu would have definitely taken her back for her uncle’s sake. After all, he had kept her for so many years. Jing Zhongxiu would not have been stingy.

Jing Yiran truly did not think that he was worth Lu’s sacrifice.

No one in his life had ever treated him so nicely. He held the title of the Second Master of the Jing Family, but he was just a love child whose mother was never given the title of a wife publicly and whose father did not like or care about either of them. People respected him because of Jing Zhongxiu, not because they admired him.

He had hated them deep in his marrow. He had wanted to reach the top of the world to show them how excellent he could be and how blind they had all been!

But at this moment, Jing Yiran felt no more hatred.

He had received warmth and care from someone who nearly sacrificed her own life for his sake. He did not care about those who disliked him. He only cared about Lu now.

Lu might be slow emotionally, yet she could tell that Jing Yiran was moved.

She said calmly, “I thought that you died after you got shot, so there was no meaning for me to live on any longer. So I cared about nothing any more.”

She had not wanted to live on after he died?

Jing Yiran felt his heart skip a beat.

He regretted deeply that he had used Lu. She had been so cold towards him that he never realized how much she cared about him. If he had, he would not have been so impulsive.

He almost got both of them killed!

“Then you woke up, but the doctors who checked you, told me that you could live at most for a year or slightly more and would soon turn in a vegetative state if the bullet is not pulled out. I thought that when you neared your death, I would shoot you and then shoot myself. I hate the virus inside my body and when I die, it will die with me.”

Jing Yiran had never seen anyone who did not care about her own life to this extent!

“Neither of us will die! I won’t, neither will you! Jing Yichen told me that he would ask Mu Qing to take out the bullet for me and that Mu Qing has a 90% success rate with this kind of surgery.”

He recounted what Jing Yichen had told him.

Jing Yiran felt a touch of surprise. He had never expected that he would hear such positive words ever from Jing Yichen.

What was going on? Jing Yichen had been the culprit who put the bullet into his head.

And now he had to be grateful to him, instead!

“That would be great! Doctors from Family Mu are excellent and Mu Qing is very reliable.” Lu said calmly. She sounded like she trusted the Mu Family a great deal.

Jing Yiran could tell that Lu sounded relieved. Destiny was a wonderful thing. Lu did not seem that grateful to Jing Zhongxiu who kept her protected for so many years, nor did she seem passionate towards Shangguan Ning who treated her like a sister. But she had a special feeling towards him.

“If I do not die, you will live on too, right?”

“Of course I will live on. Otherwise who will protect you?”

Jing Yiran laughed. She sounded like a gangster saying such words!

But Lu said those words in a serious way like she meant them.

Jing Yiran did not argue with her.

Lu might have protected him on the sly many times, which is why he never noticed a thing. All he could vaguely remember was Lu keeping him company every time he felt that he was dying.

As he thought about the past, Jing Yiran somehow felt a bit happy.

Now he could also use his own strength to protect Lu. He was a man and would not allow a woman to shelter him. He must be the shelter for Lu!

“Sleep. I am warm and I can be your personal furnace all the time. Don’t worry about being cold. I will keep you warm.”

Jing Yiran gently put the blanket over Lu’s body, adjusted his posture so that she could be more comfortable in his arms.

He couldn’t recall the last time that he had treated a woman so nicely. He was turning into a careful and considerate man because of Lu, who funnily, was rougher and tougher than a man.

Earlier, Jing Yiran would have scoffed if he witnessed a man doing such sweet and thoughtful gestures.

But now, he did not find anything improper about his own actions.

He would also keep an eye out for Lu’s monthly period cycle and prepare the necessary stuff for her.

Since she had two personas inside her, she could not keep track of her periods. The last cycle happened ten days ago and she had not been aware of it. As a result, the sheet was dyed red.

Also, Lu didn’t have the sanitary napkins handy. It was Jing Yiran who bought those for her at the store.

Jing Yiran felt quite satisfied to have done whatever he could for her and think about things on her behalf.

He had never known that he could be an easily satisfied man.

He had been greedy and ambitious earlier and ignored many pleasant things around him. Lu once told him that he had never lived for himself but he didn’t want to accept her words. Honest words hurt, but it was true that he had never lived for himself ever.

He had only wanted to exceed Jing Yichen!

But even if he stood at the top of the world, he would still be a lonely, pathetic man.

Instead, if someone could keep him warm, it was enough even if they were in hell.

Lu soon fell asleep after she relaxed in Jing Yiran’s arms.

Jing Yiran made a decision as he saw her sleeping face.
