Going back to Serena Apartments, the ‘home’ where she belonged—alone . Lu Zhaoyang thought .
She held the new cell phone that Huo Yunting bought for her in her hands . So far, there was only one function that was useful to her: the hourly time alert .
“Miss Lu, please rest early . You can go home tomorrow . ” The caregiver said in a soft voice beside her . “Is there anything else that you need me to do?”
“No, thank you . ” Lu Zhaoyang put down the phone and closed her eyes . She decided to sleep . Day or night; it made no difference to her anymore .
In the middle of the night, someone patted and jolted her out of her sleep . Just as she wanted to make a sound, her mouth was covered .
“Yang Yang, it is me . ” It was Huo Chen’s voice . He slowly took his hand off her mouth and held her to sit up .
“I am sorry for coming to see you only after so long . ” The sadness in his voice was unstoppable . It was still low and warm but sounding as if there was a lump in his throat .
Just as Lu Zhaoyang groped aimlessly, a pair of hands held her firmly . She could not hold back her tears .
She had become accustomed to showing all her joys and sorrows in front of Huo Chen . There was no need to suppress nor conceal her feelings .
“Cry it out . I have knocked the caregiver out . She will not hear it . ” His warm voice had given Lu Zhaoyang refuge . She could now release her suppressed emotions . Leaning on his shoulder, Lu Zhaoyang cried uncontrollably . It was her first time crying so hard since she lost her eyesight .
Huo Chen gently patted her back and wiped her tears from time to time . He could not see her face clearly in the dark but her cries were already aching him deeply .
After a long while, Lu Zhaoyang’s crying finally reduced to just sobbing . Huo Chen had done a lot of things for the past two days, and eventually, he could tell her .
“Yang Yang, let us leave this place and seek treatment abroad,” Huo Chen said .
“But you—”
“I am fine . ” Huo Chen stroked her long hair while he shook her head . “I have applied to leave the military . On one, except you, will have anything to do with me . There will not be any accidents happen like last time again . ”
Huo Chen knew that Lu Zhaoyang would surely be worried about him . So, he had used all the connections that he had, without the knowledge of the old lady, to settle every unstable factor in advance .
From the moment he found out that Lu Zhaoyang had lost her eyesight, he could never take care of everyone’s feelings again .
“I cannot leave just like that . My mom is still in the Huo family,” Lu Zhaoyang said, worrying that Huo Yunting might harm her mom if she left . She could not bear to even think about it .
“Yang Yang, your mom has won the heart of the eldest brother . Huo Yunting could not do anything to her as long as the eldest brother and the old lady are still there . You should worry about yourself now . ” Huo Chen’s gentle voice sounded like a light in her heart . Unfortunately, she still could not do that .
“I am sorry, I cannot leave—not just for my mom but also for—Huo Yunting . ” It was not that she had not thought of leaving the city in the past few days, it was just that a voice in her mind would remind her of Huo Yunting whenever she thought of going . She just could not bear to leave Huo Yunting .
“Lu Zhaoyang, we are leaving whether you agree or not! The eye surgery abroad is relatively more advanced; I must bring you there for treatment—I am not going to let you live in darkness for the rest of your life!”
