Love Burns Out: Mr. Li Loves Me

In the operating room, the ticking sound of the heart rate monitor repeated incessantly. As dusk fell, the sky gradually became gloomy. Even in the well-lit ward with soft warm yellow lights, as far as the eye could see, it was as if it was covered by a layer of deliberately sharpened filter, making people want to break free and escape.

Wen Rong, who was lying on the hospital bed, had a face so pale that it was almost transparent. Her eyelashes trembled a few times, and the deliberately lowered and sharp voice outside the door made her slowly open her eyes.

The decoration of Li's Hospital was luxurious and simple, with nothing but white in sight. Wen Rong blinked before she realized where she was.

The memories in her mind came flooding in, like a huge tsunami, ready to sweep her into the turbulent whirlpool and swallow her up completely!

At this time, the door of the ward was pushed open gently, as if for fear of disturbing some fragile treasure.

When Li Zhengting saw Wen Rong lying there so weak and pitiful, his heart ached violently!

He hurriedly ran to the bedside, holding Wen Rong's palm and pressing it against her cheek. He touched her cheek and said in a hoarse voice: "Baby, I'm sorry. It's all my fault."

Feeling the coldness of Wen Rong's fingertips, as if they had just been fished out of the snow, he couldn't help but blame himself!

Now that she has finally returned under his wing, he should stay by her side all the time.

Nothing is more important than warmth.

But Wen Rong didn't react to his words at all. In the past, if Wen Rong suffered even the slightest injustice, his father would take the opportunity to cling to him for a long time, or even bargain further, instead of remaining silent like today.

Li Zhengting looked up and met Wen Rong's lifeless eyes, and he was instantly shocked.

So familiar!

He was too familiar with this look. Before Wen Rong lost her memory, she looked at him with this look, disgust, hatred, despair...but this time, there were many other things mixed in.

Li Zhengting held her hand, which began to tremble slightly. He quickly stood up to hide his panic.

He turned around to pour water, but because he was too nervous, his movements became clumsy. The spout of the kettle tilted and the scalding hot water spilled on his hands, but he didn't react at all.

"Li...Zheng Ting."

Wen Rong's voice was hoarse and very pleasant to hear, but her tone was terribly cold.

Li Zhengting chose to continue deceiving himself. He put down the cup in his hand, turned around and hugged her tightly!

"Don't be afraid of fighting. I won't leave you for a second. I'll always be with you, okay? If you don't like me going to the company to work, then I won't go. I'll work at home and won't leave you for a second, okay?"

Wen Rong chuckled softly, and it was unclear who he was mocking.

"Li Zhengting, do you think we still have a future?"

She gently pushed his arms away, and warm tears fell from her eyes, landing on his hands one by one, causing him a thousand times more pain than boiling water.

"I remembered it all..."

She remembered his indifference to her, his imprisonment and lust for her, the way he burned the ballet skirt her mother left for her, and her brother Huai Nian's broken right hand...

And...the baby she lost in her previous life.

Li Zhengting hugged her tightly, but Wen Rong struggled violently!

In a hurry, she bit Li Zhengting's shoulder fiercely! She made a "woohoo" sound like a little animal.

Aunt Lan and Doctor Lin stood at the door, listening to Wen Rong's desperate and tense crying, and their eyes unconsciously turned red.

They were also participants and witnesses of Wen Rong's experiences over the past few months. They witnessed Wen Rong's initial painful collapse to forgetting it all.

This short month was the happiest month they had seen Wen Rong since they met her.

There is no indifference and calculation, no harm and imprisonment.

They truly have a mutual understanding and love for each other... What's more, they already have a baby. As long as they wait another seven months, this loving couple will welcome the fruit of their love.

But who would have thought that fate would play such a trick on Wen Rong, making her remember everything at this very moment!

Isn't this an attempt to kill her?

Li Zhengting felt Wen Rong's resentment and collapse. He stretched out his big hand to support her head and pressed her closer to his arms. He didn't care about the severe pain in his shoulder at all, even though his snow-white shirt had already been soaked with blood.

Because he knew that Wen Rong was in more pain, so he was willing to share the pain with her in this way.

Until she let go, looking at her pale lips, Li Zhengting asked her softly, "Does your teeth hurt?"

Wen Rong was already very weak, and having just woken up, her head was very dizzy. At this moment, the man could only hold her obediently in his arms, pat her back gently, and she gradually closed her eyes.

Realizing that she had fallen asleep, Li Zhengting let go and gently put Wen Rong down, covered the cup for her, and gave her a kiss on the forehead before leaving. As he turned to leave, his aura instantly became gloomy!

…………

When Wen Rong woke up again, the environment she was in changed from Li's Hospital to Elk Manor.

It’s still this familiar master bedroom…

Wen Rong turned his head, his eyes constantly moving around, looking at everything in the bedroom.

But she found that everything she looked at deeply cut into her heart.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, she would look through the album of their wedding photos over and over again. The man would hug her and explain to her the scenes in each photo.

In front of the dressing table, he would prepare a priceless gift for her every day, and after giving it to her, he would pester her for a "return gift".

Wen Rong was pregnant and couldn't have too intense sex, so every time, the man would carry her to the desk or dressing table... lift up her skirt, kneel down and worship her like a devout believer...

Every scene in the room was like a poisonous blade, cutting into her heart again and again, causing her to tremble and convulse in pain.

There are also champagne roses placed on the bedside...

Eight hours ago, when she first opened her eyes and saw it, the feeling of joy and happiness seemed to have not gone away.

But Wen Rong knew that everything was gone.

Thinking about this now only exacerbated her pain.

She curled up in bed, biting a corner of the quilt, moaning silently and crying, but because she was too emotional, she also felt a severe discomfort in her lower abdomen.

Wen Rong put her hand on her abdomen, caressing it gently again and again. Finally... she couldn't hold it in any longer and sobbed softly, like a lost child, clutching the quilt tightly with her five fingers.

Her feelings for the child were too complicated. If she had lost her memory before, she might not have kept the child.

But the memories of the past two months were too vivid. No matter how much hatred and determination she had, she could not bring herself to harm an innocent little life.

But...if I want to keep this child, what should I do with the baby in the previous life?

Torn between self-blame and guilt, Wen Rong buried his face in the pillow.

This is what she deserves.

Perhaps the baby in the belly sensed the mother's helplessness and sadness, and stopped making a fuss and not causing trouble for her.

…………

At night, on the first floor of Elk Manor.

Aunt Lan still feels guilty. If it weren't for her negligence, things wouldn't have gotten to this point.

If Wen Rong regained her memory and really made a scene, what would happen between her and her husband?

Is the hard-earned happiness going to be destroyed like this?

Suddenly! Aunt Lan remembered the scene she saw on the hospital surveillance camera!

The woman in the surveillance video is Chu Yan! Why is she in the hospital? Could it be a coincidence?

Impossible! Aunt Lan believed in her intuition. A sinister woman like Chu Yan would never do anything without profit!

She must have gossiped in front of Wen Rong and said some hurtful words to irritate her, which is why Wen Rong fainted!

No! She wants to tell her husband everything!

We absolutely cannot let this go!

…………

At this time, the sound of a car engine was heard in the manor. Aunt Lan hurriedly opened the door. She was about to report to Li Zhengting about seeing Chu Yan today when she saw the lady getting out of the car.

Just as the driver was about to turn around and open the door for his wife, Weng Shuyao pushed open the door, got out, and walked straight towards the villa.

"lady……"

When she saw Aunt Lan, Weng Shuyao's face was still very ugly, but she knew that every wrong has its perpetrator, and what happened today could not be blamed on Aunt Lan.

Li Zhengting strode into the living room. Seeing Weng Shuyao about to go upstairs, he hurriedly called out to her.

"She's resting, don't disturb her."

After hearing what her son said, Weng Shuyao did not go up the stairs anymore, but actually stopped. She just sneered, "If you really want to do good for Wen Rong, you should let Chu Yan get the punishment he deserves!"

"enough."

Li Zhengting interrupted Weng Shuyao coldly, his tone was as cold as ice and contained anger.

"I have my own opinion on this matter. You don't need to ask about it. You just need to prepare to welcome Cheng Huan back."

When she heard Cheng Huan's name, Weng Shuyao's expression softened, but her eyes were filled with deep worry.

She and her daughter left me when they were young. Will they recognize me as their mother?

But as she was thinking, Weng Shuyao's thoughts were drawn to Wen Rong. After listening to Dr. Lin's report, her grandson almost had an accident.

However, Weng Shuyao's attitude became much softer and no longer as tough as before.

"Zheng Ting, if I hadn't been in the hospital today and could have received immediate treatment, I'm afraid this wouldn't just be a simple matter of threatened miscarriage!"

Thinking of this possibility, Weng Shuyao gritted her teeth in anger!

"What are you going to do? Chu Yan is such a vicious person, what did she say to Dada!?"

Li Zhengting's mood gradually became irritable. Today's series of accidents made him overwhelmed, especially the fact that Wen Rong had recovered his memory.

He subconsciously wanted to reach for a cigarette, but his pocket was empty. Then he remembered that he had quit smoking a long time ago.

"Chu Yan mentioned the things that happened before she lost her memory in front of her, so she remembered them after the beating."

"So what?" Weng Shuyao asked.

Li Zhengting rubbed his brows and said in a hoarse and low voice, "Xiu Yan has promised me that he will send Chu Yan back to the United States, and he will never set foot in Beicheng again except for weddings and funerals in this life."

Weng Shuyao stood up suddenly!

"Ha! This is outrageous! His Chu family's daughter caused my family to almost lose their children, and now he lightly says that sending Chu Yan abroad will be enough to explain it?"

Aunt Lan was also frowning, she also strongly disagreed.

"How can this be considered a punishment? Chu Yan has gone abroad and can still travel the world freely and unfettered, but what about Wen Rong? How can her grievances be considered?"

Facing Weng Shuyao's questioning, Li Zhengting's handsome and sharp features were hidden under the light, and every part of him was so noble and handsome.

All he could hear was his calm expression as he made the final decision indifferently - "I've agreed. She won't appear in front of Wen Rong again. Her flight is in an hour."

He had no other feelings for Chu Yan from the beginning to the end, but she had saved him after all, and Beicheng was her home. From now on, except for the funeral of the two elders of the Chu family, she could not set foot in Beicheng even a step. This could be considered a punishment for her.

Moreover, the most important thing now is Wen Rong. She has recovered her memory now, and it is too late for him to worry about this matter now!

How could he bear to focus on another woman? What does Chu Yan count for?

Aunt Lan sighed and wanted to turn around and go to the kitchen, but when she looked up, she saw Wen Rong standing at the stairs.

"Madam...when did you come down!?"

Weng Shuyao was also stunned!

Li Zhengting's body froze when he saw her standing high up with a blank and indifferent look. She just stood there quietly, as if she was the only one left in the world, isolated from the rest of the world.

He walked up to her, a gentle smile on his lips, and whispered: "Do you feel better? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Or... do you want to eat something? I will cook for you myself..."

A series of flattering words did not earn even a sidelong glance from Wen Rong.

In fact, he saw the redness in Wen Rong's eyes and the undried tears on her face. He felt distressed but he could only watch her vent.

Only by venting it out can he stop holding it in his heart. As long as Wen Rong is willing, he is willing to be the object of venting. Li Zhengting will have no complaints even if Wen Rong wants to kill him or cut him into pieces.

Wen Rong dodged Li Zhengting's hand that was about to touch her and quietly took a step back. She pulled the corner of her mouth sarcastically. Because she had just cried, her voice was very soft.

"Li Zhengting, are you planning to let Chu Yan go?"

Faced with her questioning, Li Zhengting's heart trembled. He took a step forward, wanting to hold her in his arms and comfort her.

"Fight, she won't come back to North City anymore, and we won't see her anymore. From now on...it'll just be the two of us, okay?"

Wen Rong tightened his palms, and his fingertips pinched out crescent-shaped marks inch by inch——

Brother Huai Nian was thinking about her wholeheartedly, but for this, his hand was crippled and he almost lost his life. But when it came to Chu Yan, he let her go again and again...

Wen Rong felt like a joke.

Everything these days is a ridiculous joke.

Wen Rong held her lower abdomen and turned around, but after taking a few steps, she stopped and turned slightly -

"Li Zhengting, do you know what Chu Yan told me?"
