"Pull yourself together?" Lu Xuan downed another cup of Erguotou, giving a bitter smile: "I want to pull myself together, but I can't forget the past. Sotis I'm really scared I'll go crazy, afraid I'll hurt the people around ."
Zhao Ziweng urgently said: "Lu Xuan, think about your wife. You have such a beautiful and virtuous wife. For her, you must overco your illness."
Upon hearing Zhao Ziweng's words, Ning Wanxi gently embraced Lu Xuan from the side, hoping to soften his scarred heart with her warm hug.
Feeling Ning Wanxi's delicate body, looking at her tender and charming face, Lu Xuan's rapid breathing slowly cald down.
Usually, when Lu Xuan drinks with others, he uses Dantian True Qi to sober up, so he doesn't get drunk. However, this ti, drinking with his brothers, he let loose.
Thus, after two bottles of Erguotou, Lu Xuan was already seventy percent drunk. His body slightly leaned over, feeling the soft and resilient body, a floating comfort, and sniffing the light, elegant fragrance of his alluring wife, a wicked fire surged in his chest, muddled, he kissed those alluring red lips—
Ning Wanxi never expected him to do so, only feeling Lu Xuan suddenly kiss her lips. Feeling his warm lips, Ning Wanxi was instantly intoxicated.
However, under Zhao Ziweng's surprised gaze, Ning Wanxi shyly pushed Lu Xuan, who collapsed onto the dining table, directly falling asleep.
Looking at Lu Xuan sleeping like a dead pig, Ning Wanxi blushed, saying, "Ziwen brother, sorry to make you see this."
"Uh!" Zhao Ziweng also blushed, saying: "Lu Xuan sure drank too much!"
"I'll get him to bed," Ning Wanxi said, then as if using all her strength, she helped Lu Xuan up, tossed him on the bed, and was already covered with fragrant sweat, thinking to herself, he's as heavy as a pig.
Seeing Lu Xuan's expression still showing signs of tornt, Ning Wanxi felt deep affection and gently covered him with a blanket.
At this mont, Zhao Ziweng stood at the door, his face full of redness, yet he persisted without falling down, softly saying: "Sister-in-law, you must take good care of my brother; his heart really can't take any more jolts."
"I understand," Ning Wanxi nodded: "I will take good care of him."
However, Ning Wanxi said again: "Actually, what Lu Xuan went through is not just about Xiao Kai. There are many things he's held inside without speaking; he served in the military for three years, and during those three years, what exactly did he experience? We don't know."
Zhao Ziweng's heart shook; he really neglected this point. A raging war wouldn't claim only Xiao Kai's life, right?
"Do you know anything else about him?" Ning Wanxi asked.
Ning Wanxi asked because she wanted to know if there were any other untold stories of Lu Xuan she could help him with.
But Zhao Ziweng shook his head: "Soon after Xiao Kai died, in an operation, my leg got blown off, so I don't know what Lu Xuan went through, but if he talks about it, finds soone to share, I think he'd feel better."
"I understand!" Ning Wanxi looked again at the sleeping Lu Xuan, biting her lip.
Zhao Ziweng nodded: "Sister-in-law, I'll be leaving now!"
"How can you walk like this? Go rest on the sofa," Ning Wanxi said quickly upon seeing his unstable body.
Zhao Ziweng was dizzy and, being a disabled person, knew he couldn't leave directly, so he responded: "Alright, I'll sleep on the sofa for a while."
After speaking, Zhao Ziweng staggered to the sofa and quickly fell asleep.
Zhao Ziweng originally thought he would have a fun drinking session with Lu Xuan, but unexpectedly, he inadvertently touched upon Lu Xuan's pain, causing him anguish.
At Southeast City's long-distance bus station, Zhao Ziweng was standing beside a bus heading to the countryside, and Lu Xuan stood before him.
Lu Xuan's recovery was impressive; even though he drank twice as much, he sobered up quickly and took the car to the long-distance bus station.
At this mont, Zhao Ziweng solemnly said: "Lu Xuan, if possible, I think you should visit Xiao Kai's family. Perhaps then you'll find peace."
Xiao Kai's family—Lu Xuan was deeply moved, knowing Xiao Kai's parents lived in Northeast City of Northeast Province, but he dared not face them, choosing to evade.
And Zhao Ziweng's suggestion was that if Lu Xuan gains the forgiveness of Xiao Kai's parents, maybe this emotional burden would be relieved.
Lu Xuan and Zhao Ziweng never t Xiao Kai's parents, but Xiao Kai often talked to them on the phone in their presence, and they were known to be kind and understanding.
Thus, Zhao Ziweng believed Xiao Kai's parents wouldn't bla Lu Xuan for his death, allowing Lu Xuan to liberate himself.
Lu Xuan knew his good intentions and nodded: "If I have ti, I'll go."
"Buzz!" The long-distance bus started, and Zhao Ziweng knew it was ti to say goodbye, his lips trembling twice before heavily patting Lu Xuan's shoulder, choking down: "Lu Xuan, you must live well!"
After speaking, Zhao Ziweng turned and left, not wanting Lu Xuan to see his tears; he had lost a leg, but compared to Lu Xuan's suffering, it was insignificant.
Zhao Ziweng was truly worried, worried Lu Xuan would walk an irreversible path, one that many veterans follow, overwheld by inner tornt, ending their lives.
Live—Lu Xuan watched Zhao Ziweng's staggering figure walk away, unsure of what to say, lifting his eyes to the setting sun, sotis feeling that living is such a difficult thing.
"Ding ding—" After the long-distance bus left, Lu Xuan's phone rang. He opened it, seeing it was Wang Xiaohu calling.
"Brother Lu!" Wang Xiaohu's voice was sowhat heavy.
Before Wang Xiaohu could say anything, Lu Xuan directly asked: "Are you calling to tell the Southeast Four are bullying us at our doorstep?"
Wang Xiaohu was instantly shocked: "Brother Lu, how did you know?"
Lu Xuan chuckled: "I guessed. With Crown Prince of Southeast being so quiet, I thought they'd definitely make a move on you. How did they deal with you?"
Wang Xiaohu angrily replied: "Southeast Four's people threw feces at our company entrance and wrote several 'death' words on the wall outside the company. They've co multiple tis, making everyone anxious. Many have resigned."
"Didn't catch them?" Lu Xuan frowned slightly.
Wang Xiaohu said: "I sent a few brothers to stake out, caught two, but then dozens of them ca and beat them into the hospital."
