An Exclusive love-Chapter 450 - The Proposal
“Who is calling my name?” Chen Chen heard many different sounds, including cries, shouts, and loud noise caused by something falling on the ground.
She wanted to open her eyes to look but she wasn’t able to do that, as if her body didn’t belong to herself. Chen Chen was terrified that her hands and feet might have been cut off. Otherwise, she would have felt their existence.
The thought only appeared for a second. Soon, she was lost in darkness again.
“Officer Jiang, please calm down. It’s normal for Mrs. Jiang to be like this when she has taken too many drugs. It will take at least a few days for her to wake up.”
The room was in total chaos and two nurses trembled in the corner. Was this man the so-called God of War? He was so scary and smashed everything in the room just a while ago. If he wasn’t stopped, their lives might be in danger as well.
Hua Tuo, who just arrived, felt the pulse of Chen Chen and said, “Master, your wife is in good condition now. The only thing you can do is wait for her to wake up by herself.”
“Are you sure she is okay?” Jiang Rui’s face looked cold, as if he was a monster coming from hell and was ready to bite someone to death.
Ah Zi said with ridicule, “Why are you making such a big fuss now? What did you do earlier?”
“Damn, I have told you the whole thing!” Bear hurriedly pulled her. “Master wanted to propose to her so he went to Zhou Yiyun for advice.”
“Haha.” Ah Zi smiled coldly. “For advice? Did you have to ask her? Are you very familiar with her? Why not ask me? I’m Chen Chen’s friend rather than her. I know what she likes. Do you have to ask an unfamiliar woman?”
Bear wanted to explain but Ah Zi stared at him. “Even if your master doesn’t want to count on me, he can check online. You can find everything online. Do you have to talk about it with a woman in the cafeteria?”
“Haha!” Ah Zi’s eyes were red. “Let me tell you, Jiang Rui! You’re really mean. Chen Chen suffered so much because of you. Last time, she was shot. This time, she was almost…”
Ah Zi covered her face and started to cry. Bear held her to give her comfort. “Ah Zi, Master didn’t want it to happen, either.”
“So he can be forgiven?” Ah Zi punched him and then leaned on the bed. “Poor Chen Chen. Boohoo…”
It suddenly became silent in the room and the doctor and nurse slipped out. It was huge news but they didn’t dare to tell it to others.
“I’m sorry,” after quite a while, Jiang Rui said when looking at Tuan Zi.
Tuan Zi took a look at him and said nothing.
Jiang Rui knew that although this daughter always seemed mean to Chen Chen, inside, her mother was the most important thing to her in the world. As her father, he could never take her mother’s place. But now, Chen Chen suffered so much pain due to his carelessness.
Once thinking about the situation, Jiang Rui wanted to kill.
When they reached the bar, Chen Chen was being pressed down on the couch by three men. Her top was off and one of them was taking off her pants.
Jiang Rui rushed over and kicked them aside. Then he picked up Chen Chen and left.
“Bring them back and take good care of them,” Scar ground his teeth and said. He clearly knew how to treat them.
The doctor said that Chen Chen had taken too many drugs. Had they arrived later, her brain would have been damaged. Jiang Rui didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if he hadn’t arrived in time. The possibility hurt him so badly.
“You should all go back. I’ll stay.” Jiang Rui didn’t want so many people to stay here. He wanted to talk to Chen Chen alone.
Ah Zi grabbed the bed. “I won’t leave.”
“Come on, let’s go!” Bear pulled her and whispered, “You know our master wants to kill himself. Don’t be angry with him anymore.”
Ah Zi wanted to add something but Tuan Zi had already walked to the door. “Let’s go. Uncle Bear, please take me to the Wen family.”
“Tuan Zi…” Jiang Rui spoke.
The little girl turned around to stare at him. “Their nanny knows how to make soup. I will bring some here with Auntie Xie Hong later.”
Jiang Rui nodded and felt a bit better. He was afraid that his daughter wouldn’t care for him anymore.
By the time they were all gone, Jiang Rui took a chair to the bedside.
“Liuliu! Can you hear me?” He held Chen Chen’s hand tightly in his own and said, “Sorry, I haven’t considered it thoroughly. I shouldn’t have gone to the cafeteria with someone else, no matter what reason I had. Sorry to have made you misunderstand.”
“Liuliu! Wake up! Please wake up! You can hit me or scold me if you want.” He looked at the woman who slept quietly in bed. Her little face was somewhat blue because of the drugs. Even her breathing was not as strong as usual. It was light and slow.
If Hua Tuo hadn’t guaranteed that she was okay, Jiang Rui would have thought she was about to leave this world.
“Liuliu…” A hot teardrop fell on Chen Chen’s hand and transformed into endless love and regret.
Chen Chen slept for three whole days, during which time Xie Hong came to deliver the meals to Jiang Rui, and Tuan Zi came with her. Wen Pintang went there once as well and told him that the Wan family knew about it. Xin Qing stopped Wan Qingsi from coming, or he would have arrived a long time ago.
“When Liuliu wakes up, remember to make a call,” Wen Pintang reminded him before he left, “or you’ll be scaled!”
Jiang Rui boldly thought if his being scaled could make Liuliu wake up, he would let them do it…
At dawn on the third day, Jiang Rui saw Xie Hong and Tuan Zi out. And then when he was holding Chen Chen’s hand and repeating the words he said to her every day, he saw her eyelashes shivering.
“Liuliu?” Jiang Rui hurriedly stood up. He was extremely excited.
The hand in his palm moved a bit and he shouted excitedly, “Doctor! Doctor!”
The doctor who was waiting aside rushed in immediately and the depressed nurses followed him. Officer Jiang shouted like this every few days. He always claimed that he had seen Chen Chen moving. They had had enough of it.
“Ah?” The doctor, who also thought Jiang Rui was dizzy again, checked on her and said surprisedly, “Mrs. Jiang has woken up! It’s true!”
Chen Chen slowly opened her eyes and saw a lot of people in white looking at her with excitement. The next second, they were shoved aside by a face.
“Liuliu?” A man with an unshaven beard looked at her with mixed feelings.
Chen Chen blinked. “So ugly…”
Jiang Rui held her tightly. “You’ve finally woken up! Thank God!”
The doctor examined Chen Chen and declared that she had recovered. But she was still weak and had to rest for some time. There would be some symptoms like inflexibility in her limbs but it would be back to normal in a few months.
“We had no idea when you’d wake up, so Xie Hong brought soup here every day. Now you can finally taste it!” Jiang Rui carefully fed her some chicken soup. “After you drink it up, you can tell me what you want to eat. You can eat everything except for that oily stuff.”
Chen Chen was hungry and had no strength to talk. After she finished a bowl of chicken soup, she pushed Jiang Rui. “I’m okay now. You can leave.”
“Liuliu…” Jiang Rui held her hand, “Can you give me a chance to explain?”
Chen Chen started to cry pitifully. “No. I don’t want to see you. I was snatched because of you. They fed me with many strange pills and they…” Suddenly, she started to pull her clothes with fear.
“No! No!” Jiang Rui held her with care. “I arrived there in time and saved you. They didn’t touch you, not at all!”
Chen Chen cried out, “I was so scared. I called your name. But you have another woman. You don’t want me…”
“Liuliu, Liuliu!” Jiang Rui grabbed her hand so she wouldn’t hurt herself. “There was no other woman. You misunderstood it.”
“I saw it. You and Zhou…”
Chen Chen suddenly covered her mouth and looked at the ring in Jiang Rui’s hand.
“I wanted to propose to you and asked my mother to specially design it. Do you like it?” Jiang Rui held her hand. “I came across Zhou Yiyun on that day and she was filming a wedding scene. So I just asked her how to propose in a way that can be surprising enough.”
Jiang Rui carefully felt her hand. “There was a cafeteria around so she invited me to go in to have a chat. She offered me many suggestions to choose from.
“I thought it over for several days but still couldn’t decide on which way to propose to you. So I asked to see her again in the cafeteria for her advice.” Jiang Rui lifted his head. “But I didn’t expect that you would be called to go there.”
Chen Chen said while crying, “You’re a liar. You sent her flowers.”
“You’re so silly! It was not from me. It was from her fans.” Jiang Rui lifted her face. “Liuliu, Ah Zi is right. I shouldn’t have asked another woman and created a chance that you would misunderstand.”
“You… you… you still like me? You won’t abandon me?” Chen Chen looked at her pitifully. “It was just a mistake?”
Jiang Rui held her on his legs. “How could I desert you! My life would be dark without you. Therefore, from now on, don’t be worried or believe others’ words. Liuliu, I’ll always love you more than you love me.
“Don’t worry that you might lose me, because I’m always more worried about losing you!” Jiang Rui put the ring on her finger. “No one could imagine that I proposed to you in a hospital bed after the whole process.”
Chen Chen looked at the ring. It was a pink diamond held by a heart and there was a circle of white diamonds. It looked luxurious and brisk.
“There are our initials inside.” Jiang Rui reached out his hand. The ring on his finger was the same kind, but without the big diamond.
Chen Chen pouted, “I never said that I would marry you!”
“Liuliu!” Jiang Rui kissed her cheek. “I’m sorry to have let you get involved in that danger. I didn’t protect you well.”
“Who kidnapped me?” Chen Chen trembled the minute she thought of that place. Jiang Rui held her tightly. “Leave it to me. Now all you need to do is say yes!”
Chen Chen foolishly lifted her head. “I’m so stupid. I won’t be impulsive next time. I’ll only believe the words from your mouth.”
“That’s right. We have to tell everything to each other in the future. I’ll be the same!” Jiang Rui looked at her smilingly. “Then I will take your words as a yes. Now I’ll call Mom to tell them the good news. They’re all waiting!”
