Chapter 346 If You Can't Wake Me Up
At the entrance of Kuncheng’s most prosperous shopping mall, people are coming and going and it is very noisy.
Xiao Yue was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. He looked around anxiously and walked hurriedly, not missing any corner.
Finally, at the exit on one side, he saw Mu Xiaoji's lonely figure standing blankly beside the flower bed.
Mu Xiaoji was like a solidified statue, his posture was stiff, only his eyes were fixed in the direction of the parking lot. His eyes revealed complex emotions that were difficult for others to understand. The noise around him seemed to have nothing to do with him. He was immersed in his own world, motionless.
Xiao Yue ran over in a hurry, his leather shoes making a rapid sound as they stepped on the ground.
His curious eyes followed Mu Xiaoji's gaze, but the parking lot was busy with cars and people coming and going. He searched carefully but found nothing.
Xiao Yue was full of doubts. He gently waved his hand in front of Mu Xiaoji and asked in a gentle and cautious voice: "Master, what are you looking at?"
Mu Xiaoji seemed to be pulled back from distant thoughts. He slowly turned his head and looked at Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue looked at the young master's face, which looked as if his heart was broken, and was extremely worried. He continued to ask, "Young Master, weren't you accompanying grandma to look at cheongsams? Why did you suddenly come here? Grandma and the lady are looking for you everywhere now!"
Mu Xiaoji did not answer directly, but stared at Xiaoyue with sad eyes. After a moment, he said faintly: "Xiaoyue, do you often come to this shopping mall to shop?"
Xiao Yue was a little confused by this sudden question, but he answered without hesitation: "Yes, Master. What's the matter?"
Mu Xiaoji's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible nervousness, and he asked with trembling lips, "Have you seen Young Master Jiang during this period?"
When Xiao Yue heard the words "Young Master Jiang", his eyes instantly became guilty and he avoided looking directly into Mu Xiaoji's eyes. He just lowered his eyebrows and shook his head gently.
Mu Xiaoji seemed not to notice Xiao Yue's strangeness, and turned his gaze back to the parking lot, his eyes revealing deep attachment and reluctance.
He whispered softly, “I just saw him, he looked very haggard, his face was as pale as paper, and his body became thin.
In less than a month, he lost so much weight. He returned everything I gave him to me without leaving anything behind. "
At this point, Mu Xiaoji's voice choked slightly, a thin layer of mist appeared in his eyes, and he said sadly: "He wants to completely wipe me out of his world!"
As Xiao Yue listened to Mu Xiaoji's words, the contents of Jiang Chengyu's suicide note involuntarily emerged in her mind, and every word seemed to be engraved in her heart.
He looked at Mu Xiaoji's painful expression and couldn't help but comfort her suggestively: "Master, it won't happen. Master Jiang loves you so much that he even loves you with his life. How can this love be replaced by those things? You must believe him."
When Mu Xiaoji heard Xiao Yue's words, it was as if he had caught a ray of light in the darkness, and a glimmer of hope seemed to be rekindled in his originally dim eyes.
He raised his head slightly, with a firm look in his eyes, and repeated Xiao Yue's words: "Yes, some things cannot be replaced by any objects."
After saying that, he took a deep breath, as if to cheer himself up, straightened his back, and prepared to face everything that was about to come.
In the spacious and bright parking lot, Xiang Xiaowu was waiting there early, his eyes fixed on the direction of the entrance. He looked at his watch from time to time, his expression full of anxiety and uneasiness.
Suddenly, he saw Jiang Chengyu appear. Jiang Chengyu was carrying large and small bags in both hands, his steps were unsteady, and his expression looked extremely abnormal.
Xiang Xiaowu's heart sank suddenly. Without time to think, he quickly opened the car door, ran towards Jiang Chengyu, and took the heavy thing in his hand.
Xiang Xiaowu looked at Jiang Chengyu with a worried look on his face, his eyes full of concern, and asked anxiously: "Mr. Jiang, you look pale, without any blood at all. Are you feeling unwell? Are you okay?"
Jiang Chengyu's body was weak and his breath was weak. He stretched out his hand weakly and supported Xiang Xiaowu's shoulders. His body swayed slightly, as if he had used up all his strength to stand firm.
He shook his dizzy and confused head and said in a hoarse and low voice: "My head... feels a little uncomfortable, as if it weighs a thousand pounds. Let's go back as soon as possible. I feel like I can't hold on any longer."
The two of them walked to the car with difficulty. Jiang Chengyu held the car door with trembling hands and slowly opened it.
Mrs. Wang, who had been waiting in the car, saw Jiang Chengyu like this, and her face was instantly filled with fear and anxiety. She held the sweetly sleeping stinky baby in her arms;
He leaned forward and asked anxiously, "Boss Jiang, what's wrong with you? Get in the car, do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
Jiang Chengyu used up his last bit of strength to get into the car. He seemed to have been drained of all his energy. He leaned back in the chair tiredly, his eyes closed, and said weakly:
"No, I just need to get some sleep. Maybe I'm just too tired. I'll be fine after a rest."
Xiang Xiaowu quickly put the things into the trunk, then nimbly sat in the driver's seat, started the engine, and the car slowly drove out of the parking lot and soon merged into the bustling traffic outside.
At this moment, the little stinky baby, who had been sleeping quietly in Mrs. Wang's arms, suddenly seemed to be frightened by something; he woke up with a start, and then started crying loudly.
The cry was loud and piercing, full of fear and anxiety. Jiang Chengyu was suddenly awakened from his drowsy state. He forced himself to sit up and looked at Chou Bao nervously, his eyes full of heartache and worry.
He anxiously reached out and grabbed Choubao's hand and asked, "Choubao, were you scared by the sound of the door closing just now? Don't cry, don't cry, little daddy is here!"
When Xiang Xiaowu heard Choubao's cry and Jiang Chengyu's words, he panicked, his face full of fear and self-blame, and he hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I really didn't mean it, I didn't expect it to be like this."
Jiang Chengyu no longer had the energy to blame anyone at this time. He said in a cold and serious voice: "It's none of your business, Xiaowu, drive carefully and pay attention to whether there are any suspicious vehicles following us.
If you find anything unusual, walk around the city a few more times, and never go back to your residence halfway up the mountain. Make sure you are safe."
Xiang Xiaowu quickly responded: "Yes, Mr. Jiang, I will definitely be on high alert."
Wang Sao looked panicked and tried her best to comfort Chou Bao. She rocked him gently and patted his small back.
She kept humming a soft lullaby, but no matter how she coaxed the little baby, he wouldn't appreciate it and still opened his big mouth and cried heartbreakingly.
The tears on the young face made people feel distressed. Jiang Chengyu looked at the crying baby and became more and more anxious. He frowned and said nervously:
"Sister Wang, you should give Choubao to me. This child recognizes people. Since he was born, it seems that he only recognizes the smell of me. It seems that he will only feel at ease when I hold him."
Mrs. Wang had no choice but to carefully and gently hand the stinky baby to Jiang Chengyu.
Jiang Chengyu took Choubao, held him tightly in his arms, rocked him gently, and coaxed him tenderly: "Choubao, little daddy will hold you, don't cry, don't cry, our Choubao is the best, a brave and good child, don't cry, okay?"
At this moment, Jiang Chengyu suddenly felt that something was wrong with the stinky baby in his arms. He looked down and found that the stinky baby's diaper was wet.
Jiang Chengyu looked up and ordered: "Xiao Wu, turn on the air conditioner. The diaper of the stinky baby is soaked. He must be feeling uncomfortable, so he is crying so hard."
Xiang Xiaowu immediately responded: "Okay, Mr. Jiang, I'll turn it on right away." As he said that, he quickly pressed the air conditioning button.
Mrs. Wang was also very smart. She quickly reached behind and took the diaper and handed it over.
Jiang Chengyu took the diaper, skillfully opened the little pocket of Choubao's pants, and carefully helped him put on a clean diaper.
It's magical enough, as soon as the diaper was changed, the little baby stopped crying, and started to laugh happily while sucking his own hands. His adorable appearance was like a little sun, instantly dispelling the depressing atmosphere in the car.
Jiang Chengyu used a sling to wrap Choubao securely in his arms to ensure that Choubao was safe in his arms.
Then he closed his eyes tiredly and ordered in a weak voice: "Sister Wang, Xiao Wu, I will sleep for a while. If I am not awake when I get home safely, you must wake me up;
If...if you can't wake me up, you will send me and Choubao to the company to meet Mr. Song, remember?"
Mrs. Wang looked at Jiang Chengyu's pale forehead with beads of sweat rolling down, and her heart ached. She quickly took out her handkerchief and gently helped Jiang Chengyu wipe the sweat.
After Jiang Chengyu said this, he seemed to fall into a deep sleep, his brows still furrowed, as if he could not escape the endless fatigue and pain even in his sleep.
Little Choubao seemed to have sensed Jiang Chengyu's tiredness. He stared at him curiously with his big watery eyes.
The little hands kept grabbing Jiang Chengyu's collar, and he kept saying "oh oh oh" in a language that only they, father and son, could understand, as if telling Jiang Chengyu that he would always be with him.
Mrs. Wang sat aside, watching this scene, her eyes full of heartache and confusion. She whispered softly, "What on earth did Mr. Jiang's child go through? Why did he become like this? Amitabha, good people will be rewarded. I hope everything will get better for him soon."
The car was driving smoothly in the traffic, but the atmosphere inside the car was extremely solemn. Everyone's heart was filled with worries and uneasiness about the future, and their fate, like this car driving on an unknown road, was full of variables...
