Chapter 256 - Scared And Helpless
Chapter 256 – Scared And Helpless
Inside the silent hospital room, Liu Ji Fan was sitting on a chair beside the hospital bed.
On the hospital bed was lying unconscious Tian Yuan.
Liu Ji Fan's deep black eyes stared at his lover without blinking.
His eyes would sometimes roam around the thin frame of Tian Yuan and many thoughts would flash inside his mind.
"Mom…"
A soft whisper sounded in the silent room suddenly and the whisper escaped from none other than Tian Yuan's lips.
However, he was still unconscious.
But, now there was a frown on his forehead as if he was seeing something bad in front of his eyes.
Liu Ji Fan's hand rose unconsciously to smoothen that frown. The frown went away from Tian Yuan's forehead but his hand didn't. He continued to stroke Tian Yuan's hair lovingly.
"What actually happened to you in my absence?"
He whispered to himself.
The doctor told him that it was a panic attack. His Tian Yuan had a panic attack and it was not the first time he had gone through this, it seems.
When the doctor had said these words to him, Liu Ji Fan has not been able to believe them for a moment.
However, he didn't have any other choice.
There was one more thing.
Aunt Tian woke up once. She opened her eyes. When Tian Yuan went unconscious, Liu Ji Fan had seen Aunt Tian staring at Tian Yuan with worried eyes as she let out his name in broken words.
It was a good news.
Even Liu Ji Fan would have been very excited… if only he had not seen the trace of intense resentment in Aunt Tian's eyes when she was looking at him just before she closed her eyes again.
The resentment and indifference made Liu Ji Fan's heart fill with panic.
Because slowly and slowly now he was starting to feel that there was something hidden …something very big that perhaps made Tian Yuan leave him five years ago.
Or perhaps Tian Yuan's father's death was also related to it.
Liu Ji Fan's face hardened suddenly. He took out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number.
One of his hands was still stroking Tian Yuan's hair while with the other he held the phone to his ear.
A few moments later, the call connected.
"Hello, Boss."
A gruff voice came from the other side as if the person on the other side has just woken up from sleep.
It was almost midnight after all.
However, Liu Ji Fan didn't seem to care at all as he spoke
"I had asked you to find out everything about Tian Yuan. Everything!"
Liu Ji Fan said coldly.
The person on the other side was completely awake now and said
"But Boss, I have found everything and gave you all the information."
"No, you didn't."
Liu Ji Fan paused for a moment. Looking at Tian Yuan's face and remembering Aunt Tian's resentment-filled eyes, he felt very suffocated inside his heart.
The only familial love he had gotten was from the Tian family.
However, the same family now didn't seem to like his presence that much.
What could go wrong?
"Investigate Tian Yuan's Father's death properly. I want to know everything in two days."
Finishing his words, Liu Ji Fan hung up without even hearing if the other side has anything to say or not.
After that, he stood up from the chair he was sitting on until now and climbed on the bed Tian Yuan was lying on.
Both of his arms were around Tian Yuan's waist and his face was buried in Tian Yuan's neck.
He kissed the skin under her lips and whispered gently.
"I will find out everything, Baby, and I will make everything alright."
———
In City H and City S, the next few days passed quite without any huge movement.
In City S, Tian Yuan was now avoiding Liu Ji Fan and Liu Ji Fan never told Tian Yuan that his mother had woken up once.
Aunt Tian didn't open her eyes again after that and Liu Ji Fan was too scared to imagine what exactly would happen if she would really wake up.
Now he could imagine many possibilities behind Aunt Tian's resentment.
Maybe she knew about his feelings for Tian Yuan and was not ready to accept them.
It could be possible. Because Liu Ji Fan knew very well that Tian Yuan never went against his parents so perhaps he could have left him back then because his parents didn't like him after coming to know of everything.
For some reason, he wished that the reality was this.
Because he would be able to accept it.
However, if it was something else then he didn't if he really would be able to face it.
He wanted to question Tian Yuan, however, at the same time, he didn't want Tian Yuan to remember those memories that could make him have another panic attack.
So he thought it was best to wait for the investigation results.
On the other hand, in City H, everything has started to fall in place for Mo family.
When Mo Roulan didn't sense any suspicious movement around Mo Chen for these three-four days, she relaxed a little. However, she still didn't send Mo Chen out alone anywhere.
Lin Qianru had also started to relax now.
Sometimes she would now stop Mo Roulan frown restricting Mo Chen all the time.
She actually couldn't understand the reason behind Mo Roulan's vigilance for Mo Chen. Zhu family had already moved away but Mo Roulan was still so wary of them.
What could they even do to her son?
Mo Roulan also couldn't say anything to her mother regarding this.
Lin Qianru was relaxed because she had not seen the real faces of Xun Weilan and Zhu Jidong but she had seen it in her past life.
They were cruel …and seeing how desperately Xun Weilan was begging her that day, Mo Roulan somehow felt that Zhu's family will not give up that easily.
So no matter how much her mother asked her to relax, Mo Roulan didn't.
She dropped Mo Chen at his school in He Jian's car and picked him from the school by herself. During this period, he was not allowed to play inside but she would surely take out some time to play with him.
However, Mo Roulan had never thought that even after so many precautions, she would still be standing at the same spot in this life.
Scared, helpless, and completely unknown to the fact whether her younger brother was alive and safe.
