Chapter 146 – How could Lin Yueqi still be alive? (1)
Since Jiang Mucheng is the host, the “Revenge Script” can only be at her “command” since it can’t brainwash her.
Now, even though Jiang Mucheng had turned stupid, she was blessed in her ill-fortune and obtained a different kind of “lucky system”.
She shut her laptop and sat there silently, looking at Lin Yueqi’s direction and wiping her tears away.
Jiang Mucheng was suddenly afraid that Lin Yueqi would die just like that. If she dies, what was going to happen to her and her granny’s salaries? It also just happened to be the 28th, there were only two days before she and her granny could receive their salaries. Who was going to give them their salary if their boss dies?
With this belief in place, she could not let Lin Yueqi die just like that.
So, with those thoughts in mind, she types down that line into her laptop.

At around twelve o’clock, Li Xing heard that Lin Yueqi had suddenly fallen ill with some strange disease, and she might not make it through the night. He was very worried that his friend Lu Ting would not be able to withstand the pain of loving his “loved one” and rushed over from home to the hospital.
As soon as he entered the ward, he heard the chubby little girl crying, and it was simply gut-wrenching.
Lin Yueqi was lying asleep on the hospital bed, her face morbidly pale. On the other side, Lu Ting was holding the girl and sitting quietly by the bed.
Two women sat on the sofa in the corner.
One was Lin Yueqi’s assistant, Xiao Ke; the other, she was no stranger either. It was Jiang Mucheng who suddenly admitted to plagiarism and turned into an idiot.
When he saw Jiang Mucheng, Li Xing stepped back in fright and let out a yelp, “Damn! Scared me to death…”
He patted his chest and asked, “What’s that fool doing here?”
When Li Xing said the word “fool”, Jiang Mucheng tilted her head at him. She seemed to be very bothered about Li Xing saying that about her and puffed her cheeks out, pouting and huffing.
Li Xing, “…” What, even fools act cute these days?
He turned his head over to Lu Ting and asked, “Bro, how’s your future wife doing?”
Lu Ting looked extremely haggard and his throat felt heavy as if it was weighted by a thousand pounds, making him unable to speak.
After a few sobs, Tuantuan stopped crying. She rubbed her red and puffy eyes and put a finger to her lips. Putting on a serious tone, she said to Li Xing, “Shh—Mama is asleep, don’t interrupt Mama’s sleep. Mama is so strong and beautiful, she will definitely wake up.”
She was very afraid, afraid that her Mama would never open her eyes again. It seemed like that was the ending in each one of her dreams.
Lin Yueqi laying in bed, lying in a glass case, never to wake up again. Finally, it turned into a grave.
As the little girl spoke, tears began to well in her eyes again. Her voice trembled while she spoke as if she was trying to hold her tears back, afraid to disturb Lin Yueqi’s sleep.
Originally, Li Xing did not feel too badly that Lin Yueqi was sick. After all, he wasn’t close to her.
But when he saw her upset the little girl was, his heart went soft and it felt like something was tugging at his heartstrings. It hurt.
Li Xing went over and carried the girl off of Lu Ting’s arms. He said to him, “Hey buddy, go out and get some air. I’ll take over here.”
The room just felt stuffy to Lu Ting and his emotions felt complicated.
Walking out of the ward, he headed into the fire exit and pulled a box of cigarettes out from his pocket.
Pushing the box open with one hand, he pulled a cigarette out with his mouth and lit it with the lighter in his other hand.
Since he reunited with Tuantuan, Lu Ting rarely smoked anymore.
He would never smoke in front of women and children, now would he do it hidden in a corner of the house. When he really couldn’t stand it anymore, he would secretly smoke a cig in his office.
