Chapter 246: Sun Xiaoqin

Chapter 246 Sun Xiaoqin

"Mom, wake up, hurry and wake up." In her daze, Sun Xiaoqin seemed to hear her son calling out to her.

She thought she was dreaming again; when she rubbed her eyes and sat up from the recliner, she was startled to see Li Huowang on the bed looking at her.

"Son? Are you finally lucid again?"

Sun Xiaoqin hurriedly took out the calendar beside her and made a note. "Son, look at this period, the intervals between your lucidity seem shorter? Does this mean your illness is nearly cured?"

Li Huowang looked at her, smiled, and nodded, "Yes, perhaps it really is getting better soon."

"That's wonderful. By the way, are you hungry? Have an orange? Oh, when you weren't lucid, you talked nonsense all day, I didn't even know if you were full."

Sun Xiaoqin reached under the recliner and pulled out a bag of sugar-coated mandarin oranges wrapped in red plastic, picked one out with her hand, and began peeling it.

"Mom, I'm not hungry. Have you been staying here with me this whole time?"

Sun Xiaoqin sat down by Li Huowang's bedside, extending her right hand which smelled faintly of orange peel, gently stroking his face, looking at him with heartache.

"Don't worry, Mom is here. Dr. Wang also said that if I stay by your side, seeing me every day can help improve your condition."

"Don't listen to him, he's just a liar." Looking at the mother before him, Li Huowang's voice trembled slightly.

"Oh, okay, okay, Mom listens to you. We won't hire him anymore. Look how they beat my son's face. When our family saves enough money, we'll go abroad to hire the best doctor."

Hearing the tone completely used to coax a child, Li Huowang's mouth twitched slightly, and finally tears slowly flowed down.

"Son, don't cry, why are you crying? When I wasn't there, did that kid Wang Wei bully you? Tell me, I'll go deal with him!"

Sun Xiaoqin's eyebrows instantly shot up; the woman who never gave up before had returned.

Li Huowang shook his head vigorously, unsure if rejecting her words or trying to shake off the tears. "Mom, my hands feel a bit numb, can you help me untie them?"

"Eh! Okay, okay." Sun Xiaoqin immediately began untying the wide cloth bands on Li Huowang's hands.

As for whether Li Huowang would go mad and attack her, Sun Xiaoqin did not consider this question at all. Because he was flesh cut from her own belly.

Controlling his newly freed hands, he rubbed his numb wrists, then wiped the tears from his face.

Immediately after, Li Huowang reached into his quilt and slowly pulled out the golden box he had brought from over there.

"Mom, take this, all of this is for you." Smiling Li Huowang explained softly while tucking the golden box in his hand into his mother's embrace.

"This... this..." Looking at what was in her arms, Sun Xiaoqin was clearly panicked, her mind momentarily chaotic, where on earth did all this gold come from!

Li Huowang took a small gold ingot from the box, held it in his palm, placed it before Sun Xiaoqin, saying with longing in his eyes: "Mom, look, with this, you can not only buy back our house, but buy several more buildings."

"You can also buy shops to collect rent, afterwards you won't need to work, and can receive money every month."

"Also, haven't you always said in the past that you wanted to travel abroad after retirement? Now you don't need to wait until retirement, you can go now, with this gold, wherever you want to play, you can go."

After saying these things, Li Huowang finally took out a pair of exquisite jade earrings from his bosom and handed them over with both hands.

"Mom, this is the birthday gift owed to Nana before, please help me pass it on to her, and also, tell her for me..."

Li Huowang paused here, memories from before flashed through his mind, his expression began to struggle, he finally took a deep breath, forcibly holding back the emotions about to explode.

"Mom... help me tell her, Nana, I'm sorry, tell her not to wait."

Hearing her son speak these words, Sun Xiaoqin truly began to panic, he was completely acting like someone settling their final affairs.

She hurriedly put the golden box on the bed, rushed out the door, and shouted loudly towards the empty corridor outside: "Doctor! Duty doctor, come quickly!"

Immediately she rushed back, clutching Li Huowang's hands with both hands in panic, choking up as she spoke: "Son, what is wrong with you? Did you encounter some trouble? Tell Mom, Mom will think of a way! No matter how big the trouble, I can solve it for you, don't scare Mom!"

Li Huowang smiled looking at the crying mother before him, holding the golden box with both hands, placing it between the two of them. "Mom, why are you crying, you should smile. Look at so much gold, our family has money,"

"I don't want gold, I just want my son back!" Sun Xiaoqin lunged forward, hugging Li Huowang's head and sobbing loudly.

Hearing this crying sound, Li Huowang felt a pain like a knife stabbing in his heart. He even thought about not eating the Black Tai Sui, letting this place accompany him forever, letting them accompany him forever.

But when Li Huowang recalled the swollen face of Bai Lingmiao he had beaten before, he forcefully turned his head away.

"I cannot abandon reality because of false illusions! I must bear my own responsibility!"

"But..." Li Huowang embraced his mother with both hands, feeling the intense emotion radiating from her. "So real, could it really be fake?"

Just then, Li Huowang saw Wang Wei in white clothes entering the ward with his students.

Li Huowang looked at him and smiled, "Dr. Wang, I am leaving, probably won't meet again in the future, how about we make a bet?"

"Didn't you say this side is reality? If you have the ability to make me lucid again, I will admit this side is reality."

Holding his mother, after speaking the last sentence, Li Huowang smiled and slowly closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the desolate Qingqiu. Looking at the azure blue sky, and the emerald green ground. Li Huowang took a deep breath again.

Waiting for others to unlock the chains on their bodies, Li Huowang looked over each of their faces, he tucked the golden box in his hand into Sun Baolu's bosom, turned around and walked towards the tent imprisoning the Black Tai Sui.

Chun Xiaoman looked at his back with a worried expression, the other party had just suffered hysteria, crying and laughing.

"Hurry and follow over to watch, I feel today's Senior Brother Li is somewhat different."

Soon when they arrived at the tent, they saw their Senior Brother Li, emotionally very agitated, holding the meat of the Black Tai Sui.

"Senior Brother Li, what's wrong? Didn't they say eating this thing can temporarily cure hysteria? This is good news, why is he crying?" No one answered Sun Baolu's words.

They stood there silently together, watching Li Huowang begin to wail loudly while swallowing the flesh and blood in his hand mouthful by mouthful.
