"No!"

The person on the bed suddenly raised his hands and clutched the air as if he was suffering from hysteria. His eyes were tightly shut, and no one knew what he was dreaming about.

"Xu Liunian, wake up!"

Lu Jianqing immediately became nervous, holding her hand and shouted.

However, Xu Liunian didn't have any trace of waking up. Instead, she waved her hands even more vigorously, hitting her own body time and time again.

"Fleeting Time, stop the fight!"

Her skin was already injured in the first place, so now was not the time to add new injuries. He grabbed Xu Liunian's hand and pressed down, wanting her to be safe and not hurt himself.

He wanted to stop her, but he didn't know what was going on. Even when she was unconscious, her strength was ridiculously high, to the point that even Lu Jianqing found it difficult to deal with her.

He pressed down hard, but Xu Liunian's strength continued to struggle. If this continued, she might even break her bones.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Jianqing released both his hands and bent down to lean on her body. Then, a resounding slap landed on his back.

Lu Jianqing frowned, he really did not know where this woman got all her strength from, she was obviously swimming in the ocean and was about to sink, but now she seemed to have some sort of help.

There must be a handprint on the back.

Xu Liunian punched and kicked her as if she was in a dream. She had failed to stop her just now, it seemed like it was a life and death moment.

Right now, he had a childish thought. He wanted to enter Xu Liunian's dream, stand by her side and help her solve all her problems before bringing her out of the dream.

However, this was simply impossible. Every single palm strike would land squarely on his back, but he couldn't avoid them. If he could avoid them, he would land on her body.

He had lived for so long and had never been treated like this before. However, he did not feel angry nor humiliated. He only felt that it was enough for her to vent her anger.

"Elder sister!"

A cry that carried a sobbing tone came out, exploding right beside his ear. His heart trembled for a moment, not knowing whether it was because of the word 'big sister' or the hopeless and helpless pain she felt when she said those two words.

Her cheek, which was pressed against the side of her head, suddenly felt a little moist. When she turned her head to look, tears had actually flowed down her face.

What did he dream of? Was it that catastrophe that they could not forget back then?

Yaran's death, to the Xu Liunian who had personally witnessed it, was a huge blow in the end.

Perhaps because he was tired, or perhaps because he had a new dream, the hand that was slapping his back slowly stopped. In the end, the hand rested on his back, and his breathing gradually became steady.

He hugged him tightly and wanted to get up, but Xu Liunian refused to let go. She could only use this awkward position to continue hugging her.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but he felt his legs go numb. He couldn't hold on any longer, so he leaned his head close to her ear and said, "Fleeting Time, let go. I'll get up."

As if they could really communicate, Xu Liunian's strength quickly loosened up, and she struggled to support her body from a distance.

When he saw Xu Liunian's face when she was sleeping soundly, he suddenly did not want to get up anymore.

It was probably due to the effects of the medicine. His face did not look as red as before, but his face was slightly pale and his lips were bloodless. This made his heart ache.

He raised his hand and lightly tapped the center of her brows. His tightly knitted brows relaxed, but his eyelashes would occasionally tremble, like a frightened deer. The tears at the corners of his eyes reminded him of how fragile this woman was when she was helpless.

Her small nose was slightly red, and the fever had not completely subsided. Her lips slightly opened as she breathed in the air, and slightly pouted.

His lips were warm, but a little dry. He touched the tip of his tongue and traced the shape of his lips, gradually wetting them.

Lu Jianqing's eyes became hazy, and an indescribable feeling burst forth from the bottom of his heart. He hurriedly raised his head, maintaining a safe distance, but he was still a little unwilling to get up.

After waiting like this for a long time, Lu Jianqing was really unable to hold on any longer, and finally, he used his strength to straighten his arms.

After going to the bathroom to wash his face, Lu Jianqing felt much more relaxed. He poured a cup of water and brought it over, then used a small spoon to pour the water into her mouth.

It was very quiet in the ward, with only the light breathing and the sound of a machine coming from the two of them. He just sat on the chair and looked at the woman on the bed without any reason or thought.

It was not necessary for such a situation to occur in order for the two of them to not quarrel.

During the period of time they were in the Lu Family, it was rare for them to be calm.

As long as he saw another man beside Xu Liunian, he would immediately be angered, and her anger towards Xu Liunian would also change in an instant. Sometimes, even he himself found it hard to control her anger.

However, he knew that this method would work for her, so he didn't think of any other way.

As if he suddenly thought of something, Lu Jianqing stood up and left the room.

If the news of the two of them being dead together were to spread, he would not mind at all. Since the news had spread, then Lingyuchen would definitely have to use some methods very quickly.

If he wanted to remain in control of the situation the moment he reappeared, he had to be on his guard at all times.

Very quickly, the news of Lingyuchen planning to kill Lu Jianqing spread across the entire Jin City, causing everyone to be skeptical. However, this kind of news forced Lingyuchen to temporarily stop his plans, and he focused all of his attention on resolving the issue of public opinion.

Seeing the news of Lu Jianqing's and Xu Liunian's deaths, Cen Linrong's entire being crumbled, how could he accept this?

The painful experience from last time had not completely dissipated from his heart yet, and that suffocating feeling was difficult to put into words. Seeing this reality, he could not even believe it.

Could he be faking his death like last time? If that was the case, that would be for the best. But he didn't get any news, no matter how he investigated, he only got the result of two people disappearing in the middle of the ocean.

He refused to believe it, so he went straight to the company to look for Zhao Ying. During this period of time, Fleeting Time and Zhao Ying had been rather close, so she might know something.

Fortunately Zhao Ying was currently working at the Cen's, so it was very easy for him to find her. However, the moment he stepped into the company, she saw that a group of people had surrounded him in the hall, and quarreling sounds constantly echoed.
