Chapter 448: Chapter 448 is awake

The dark night soon turned to morning. However, the gray clouds continued to cover the sky with no signs of the letting the sun through.

Rain trickle onto Imperial Military Hospital as Lu Tian sat by the bed his wife slept on. He was no longer wearing the bloodstained clothes but changed into a set of black casual clothes.

He had bags under his eye since he did not go to sleep. Holding tightly onto Yue Ling's hand, he kept his eyes on her. Even when the nurses came in to check on her, he did not leave the room.

*knock knock

A knock sounds at the door before the person entering quietly push it open.

Grandfather Ji stares at Lu Tian and he could already guess the boy did not rest like he had told him to. Walking to the room, he looks at his granddaughter.

"How is she doing?"

Lu Tian's eyes did not move from his wife as he did not turn to look at the old man, but his head lightly shook to answer.

A sigh escapes Grandfather Ji's mouth. He walks to the other side of the bed and sat down on the empty chair.

After he and Ji Jingxu left home, neither of them were able to fall asleep. He knew Ji Jingxu had been crying until morning because the boy did not eat breakfast and his eyes were puffy and red when he left for school.

Gazing at Yue Ling, he felt a tinge of pain in his chest.

She is like the sun that lights the world for those around her. However, now that she is face with this calamity, it's like the world for everyone had turned dark like a night without the moon.

He heaves a sigh and looks at Lu Tian.

"She will be fine, so do not keep blaming yourself for what happened. No one anticipated this to happen."

Saying this, he reach to hold his granddaughter's hand. The IV was inserted to this hand so he made sure not to use too much strength.

As sad as he is right now, he cannot think negative and stay positive. Not only for himself, but for everyone else too.

"It pains me for the tragedy you both have to through, but son, in life, every person has to face their own obstacles. No matter how painful it is, you have to be strong and get through it."

He avert his eyes from Lu Tian to his granddaughter and his words continue.

"By faith, you were able to meet my granddaughter as she to you. You became each other's backbone and when one you is in pain, so is the other. However, if one of you is in pain, no matter how much pain the other is in, one of you need to stay strong and pull the other one from darkness."

Listening to the old man's words, Lu Tian drifted into his own thoughts. After he killed the man who murdered their child, he told himself that he cannot lose himself. Especially not when his wife is unconscious like this.

Just as he thought back to this, a sudden thought came to him.

Wife…

He always referred her as his wife despite them not being married. Will she still want to marry him after knowing he didn't protect her and their child well enough?

No…

He cannot think like this. He will stay by her side through it all. Once she is awake, he will ask her if she still wants to be with him. If she does, he will become a better man for her.

If she decides to end their relationship, no matter how much he doesn't want to let her go, he will not stop her. Instead, he will be a shadow for her and protect her in the dark.

*knock knock

"Boss."

Xu Long softly knocks on the door as he enters the private ward. Seeing Grandfather Ji, he politely bows. No wonder there were so many soldiers patrolling inside and outside of the hospital. The old man must have ordered them to keep watch too.

Brushing the thought aside, he looks at his boss, "Jiangyu is awake."

Hearing this, Lu Tian nod his head and stood up. Placing a kiss on Yue Ling's forehead, he let's go of her hand. Looking at Grandfather Ji, he gives the old man a meaningful look.

"Please look after her until I come back."

Grandfather Ji sighs a smile, "Don't worry, if she wakes up, I will inform you right away."

Steeping out of the private ward, Xu Long led his boss to another part of the hospital. The once empty halls were filled with soldiers guarding the place with Wolf Team.

Lu Tian did not pay any attention to the newly arrived soldiers. His steps continue to meet his subordinate to find out what happened last night.

After they left the restaurant, Xu Long and Lin Hui worked together to hack the CCTVs in Imperial. It took a little longer, but they were able to locate Jiangyu and the others near the mountains.

Like the incident that happened to Yue Ling and Liu Shan, the others also suffered the same incident.

While they were transporting Chu Li Xiang to the prison located on an island, they were ambushed from all sides.

Inside a room inside Imperial Military Hospital, Jiangyu laid awake on the bed. The bulky man that looked like he was made from iron was now wearing a cast on his right arm as so did his left leg.

He stares up at the white ceiling and thought about what happened. Everything came so fast that none of them had the time to react fast enough.

*creak

The door to the room opened and Jiangyu was brought back from his thoughts. He turn his head to see who it was, and his eyes shook.

"Captain."

"It's alright."

Just as Jiangyu was about to sit up, Lu Tian stops him and walks over to an empty chair.

"Explain."
