Lu Zhaoyang stared blankly at the body, covered with a white cloth. The glaring white hurt her eyes.
She felt like her heart was being stabbed over and over again.
If only she knew this would happen, she would never see Qiu Ran...
“I’m sorry.” She spoke up, unable to keep her remorse to herself.
Huo Yunting did not move, as though her words were pointless to him.
The morgue was as silent as it was cold.
Lu Zhaoyang curled in on herself. The cold slowly seeped into her body and she shivered in response.
It had not been long since she sat there, but the cold already felt more than uncomfortable. Huo Yunting had stayed here for the past three days...
She felt so guilty that the cold did not bother her so much anymore.
She moved herself next to Huo Yunting put her arms around him, keeping him close.
She had always known his body to feel warm and tough, but now she could only feel how icy he was.
Lu Zhaoyang sighed quietly and rested her head on his shoulder. There was no need for words.
She had visited the hospital in normal office wear — a white blouse and a black midi skirt. It was not enough protection for the cold in there. Lu Zhaoyang sneezed and huddled closer to him.
After a long time, the man’s shoulder twitched.
Lu Zhaoyang immediately pulled her arms away and looked intently at him.
Huo Yunting moved. He took out his phone and called Huo Li.
“Come in.”
He ended the call and held loosely onto his phone. He stopped moving again and did not even glance at Lu Zhaoyang.
Huo Li arrived after a while and was surprised to see Lu Zhaoyang.
The two of them sat on the icy cold floor. Brother Ting had always given Lu Zhaoyang looks that could even make him feel embarrassed...
This, however...
Something was wrong between them.
He kept his thoughts to himself and went to Huo Yunting.
“Brother Ting.”
“Bring her home. Do not leave her side until I said otherwise, and do not allow her to contact anyone.”
Huo Yunting finally spoke after three whole days of silence. He sounded hoarse but still unmistakably firm.
Lu Zhaoyang stood up immediately upon hearing his words and asked in confusion, “Why?”
Huo Yunting waved them away. “Take her away.”
Lu Zhaoyang knew that she had no good excuse to disobey him. She turned and took a few steps toward the door.
Then, she stopped and turned back to look at him.
“Can you... at least eat something? If you can’t take care of yourself, I won’t leave with him.”
“Take her away!”
“Yes boss!”
Huo Li did not want to risk angering the man any further. “Come on, I’ll take care of things. Let’s go!”
Huo Li did not dare touch her. He could only block her view of the man of interest.
No longer able to see Huo Yunting, Lu Zhaoyang pursed her lips and made her way out.
She did not know why Huo Yunting wanted to do this, but it was better that she did not linger around any longer.
They must respect the dead. She did not want an argument to start here in the morgue because of her.
She was the cause of this incident, so she would have to shoulder the consequences that followed.
Huo Li brought Lu Zhaoyang back to the mansion where she once stayed. She was in the living room when she passed her phone and tablet to Huo Li. She even heard the man giving instructions to the security guards and the servants in the house.
She was not allowed to leave the house or get in touch with anyone outside.
