Chapter 77: Ru Xue’s handwriting
When I entered the room, the light was still dim, but I didn’t know why. Just now, Ruoyue was still sleeping peacefully, but now she had a slightly frown on her face and her lips were slightly open, as if she was trying to say something, but she was too distressed to say it.
Did she dream of something? I looked at her in confusion, but felt a slight chill. I looked back and saw that the window was partially open due to the wind.
Maybe it was a little chilly for Ruyue? I thought to myself, walked over and closed the window. Although it was in India, it was winter after all, and the temperature difference between day and night was large. It was always a good idea to be careful.
It is normal for Ru Yue to be weak and sensitive to the cold and heat.
The room was quiet, so I sat on the sofa in front of Ruyue’s bed and waited for her quietly. The medical equipment by the bedside was monitoring Ruyue’s vital signs, and here, Chengxin and I had also set up some Taoist methods to monitor Ruyue’s vital signs, all in the hope that nothing would happen to her.
The moon in a foreign land is no different from the moon in China. It is just as cool and charming, but I wonder what my loved ones are doing under the same moonlight.
Master, parents, Ru Xue… My thoughts wander far away, but I don’t know why these people or things that used to make me feel sleepy when I thought about them have made me feel sleepy when I think about them today. Could it be that I’ve been too tired these days and need to rest?
No, I still have to keep watch over Ruoyue. What if something happens to her?
I forced myself to stay by Ruoyue’s side, but the more I did so, the more I couldn’t resist the waves of drowsiness. Finally, I fell asleep, not quite knowing what had happened.
I had no dreams, just a deep, deep sleep. In the colorless sleep, there was always an inexplicable emotion in my heart, anxious, impulsive, and strangely confused. I couldn’t say what the inexplicable emotion was, but I couldn’t wake up.
I don’t know how long I slept, but I felt that in the end, I began to dream vaguely. The scene in the dream was still in the ward under the dim light. There was a figure sitting quietly next to Ru Yue, holding Ru Yue’s hand and staring at Ru Yue with a warm gaze.
I couldn’t see the person’s face clearly, but I knew from the warmth of her gaze that she was the one. I just looked at this figure, and my heart ached inexplicably.
Why do I have this heartache? Even though I was dreaming, I couldn’t help but start thinking! There are many kinds of heartache, but the only woman in the world who can cause me this kind of heartache with a sour feeling has always been only one, and that is—Ru Xue!
But how could it be Ruoxue? I couldn’t believe the result myself… But I should be in a dream, so if it’s a dream, then there’s no problem.
Suddenly, I felt relieved. I was very surprised at my own state of mind. I was very clear that I was in a dream, and I wanted to wake up, but I couldn’t. At this moment, I was even more reluctant to wake up. I thought of that figure as Ruoxue. I wanted her to stay here for a while, to accompany me and Ruoxue, even if it was only in a dream.
Because of Ru Xue’s presence, the atmosphere in the ward became peaceful and warm. She just quietly held Ru Yue’s hand and didn’t say anything, and I felt a lot more at peace.
Occasionally, she would gently touch Ru Yue’s face, and occasionally she would fix Ru Yue’s hair. This quiet protection made me even willing for this dream to last forever.
But how can a dream last forever? After a while, the figure stood up, looked at Yue for a moment, and then gently walked out of the door. At that moment, I yelled in my heart, “Yue, don’t leave. I could even hear my real self moaning… but I was afraid that the dream would be over.
Strangely, the figure seemed to hear my call, and suddenly turned around and walked gently towards me. This time I saw clearly that the figure was Ru Xue, with familiar eyebrows and eyes, a familiar expression of lightness, the figure I had thought of a thousand times in my heart, how could I have been wrong?
She stopped by my side, and my heart began to beat wildly. I saw her raise her hand, as if she wanted to touch my face, but it stopped in the air and didn’t come down for a long time.
Ruoxue, what’s wrong with you? Because we have to part, do you have to be so ‘stingy’ with me in my dreams? Do you know that without you, I almost sank into eternal oblivion in that small border town in the north?
I felt wronged, and suddenly wanted to cry in the face of a woman in love! Because the dream was so real, I could even feel the warmth of my tears as they rolled down my cheeks.
Finally, the hand was gently placed on my face. The slightly cold fingers were so familiar, wiping away a tear and gently falling on my face, gliding across my skin.
“Ruoxue, don’t go!” I kept saying to myself. Ruoxue, don’t go. Ruoxue, stay. Ruoxue…
“Ru Xue, don’t go!” Finally, I shouted out, but I was also awakened from my dream. I looked around, but there was no trace of Ru Xue’s figure. A trace of tears on my face was still there…
Am I going crazy with longing? I smiled in pain, as if I were mocking myself, but then I noticed that there were also traces of tears on Ru Yue’s face…
This! My brows furrowed at once. Could it be that Yue also dreamed of something sad like me? I didn’t dare to hope that the dream was real… Thinking this way, I picked up a tissue from the bedside table and wiped away Yue’s tears, pulled up her quilt for her, but suddenly found a letter on the side of Yue’s quilt.
A letter? When did it come? My heart first started pounding, and then I felt a strange kind of tension!
My heart was pounding because I couldn’t help but think that the dream was real. I was nervous because I didn’t see Ru Xue put down a letter in the dream, and I thought that we were in a dangerous situation. If a letter suddenly appeared, then the person who put it there must have something in mind. Then we would be in danger. But I actually fell asleep at this time!
I couldn’t help but slap myself hard, then took the letter from the bedside table and couldn’t wait to open it.
The letter was very short, and I read it in less than two minutes. But after reading it, I went crazy and almost without thinking, I pressed the call button on Ruoyue’s bed!
Because it was a private hospital, the nurse in charge of Ruyue was in the next room, and she was in the room in less than half a minute. I hurriedly said to the nurse, “Help me watch her. If anything happens, notify my other partners. I have to go out.”
The nurse didn’t understand Chinese and looked at me confusedly. I only realized it at this moment, but I didn’t want to waste any time, so I yelled at her in English, looked at her, and rushed out of the ward.
The corridor was empty, but it couldn’t suppress my almost instant and crazy emotions. I yelled in the corridor, “Ru Xue, Ru Xue…” There was no response, just deathly quiet. Another nurse on duty peeked out and looked at me with some trepidation, because I was an important friend of Wal-Mart, and in the end, they didn’t stop me.
I didn’t care about any of that. I ran all the way through the hospital, screaming for Ruoxue until I ran out of the medical villa where we were and into the beautiful garden outside.
I still didn’t stop, and began to run wildly in the garden again, still calling out to Ruixue in a crazy, hoarse voice, but still no response!
I was so angry that I wanted to cry. I ran all the way out of the hospital and stood on the unfamiliar, quiet streets of a foreign country, still calling out to Ruixue, but where could there be any response?
“Ruixue, I know you’re here. Come out! Come out… Why don’t you see me? Are you really that cruel? Even if you’ve forgotten me, even if you have no feelings for me, you should tell me yourself! Ruixue, Ruixue…” When I shouted the last word, I felt my throat reaching its limit, and I couldn’t help coughing. A salty-sweet breath filled my entire mouth. Could it be that my throat was all hoarse?
I suddenly fell to my knees, holding the letter tightly in my hands. Even if my throat is hoarse, you still won’t come out to see me? At that moment, a different kind of anger filled my entire soul!
At that moment, a pair of hands suddenly pulled me up. I looked and saw Xiao Chengqian. He still had anger on his face. Behind him, almost all of my friends had come out, except for Chengxin. He should be in Ruyue’s ward, right?
“Chen Chengyi, do you still think the situation is not chaotic enough? Don’t tell me you can’t stand the pressure and have gone crazy. I won’t believe you’ve gone crazy like this.” Xiao Chengqian scolded me, but his eyes couldn’t help but reveal a worried expression, and the same was true for his friends behind him.
My throat was very sore, and I couldn’t speak for a while. I just looked at Xiao Chengqian, but I still couldn’t hide the pain in my eyes, and I gasped.
“Chen Chengyi, are you serious? You can’t go crazy!” Xiao Chengqian was worried, grabbed my collar, and yelled a little anxiously. After yelling, he seemed to be afraid of scaring me, let go of me, pretended to be cheerful, and hugged me, saying, “Chengyi, I know you’re fine. Go back and rest. Men always need to relieve stress. I just drink red wine. It’s okay for you to yell like snow if you’re fine.”
When I mentioned Ru Xue, everyone who knew my past looked at me with sad expressions. Except for Lu Shan and Tao Bai, who were a little confused, they were also worried about me.
Everyone wanted to say something, but Xiao Chengqian stopped them. I heard him say to everyone in a low voice, “Don’t say anything now, so as not to irritate him.”
Do you really think I’m crazy? My throat still hasn’t recovered, but I raised the letter in my hand and handed it to Xiao Chengqian. I finally managed to say in a hoarse voice, “I’m not crazy. Her handwriting, the way to save Ruoyue, she came here!”
“What?” Xiao Chengqian took the letter and looked at me again with the eyes of a madman.
But Chengzhen snatched it away and said, “I’ve seen Ruoxue’s handwriting before. I can recognize it.”
