Chapter 616 - 597: Let Qin Mobai Fake His Death
Lou Xi hung up the phone and immediately thought of the scene when Qin Mobai was sent to the hospital.
He was covered with blood, and the doctors couldn’t stop the bleeding.
During that time, Qin Mobai came to consciousness once, gently squeezing Lou Xi’s hand, his lips moving slightly.
Lou Xi leaned closer and vaguely heard what he was saying.
Lou Xi shook her head; she didn’t want to be strong; she wanted Qin Mobai to be safe.
But later, Qin Mobai was pushed into the surgery room, and the doctors performed a chest surgery, trying to remove the bullet.
It was too difficult; the surgery lasted over ten hours and used up all the AB-type blood in the small hospital’s blood bank. What Qin Mobai said seemed to sadly come true—
Unless barren earth and white bones, I will guard you through the years without worry.
Until the last moment, Qin Mobai was using his life to protect Lou Xi.
This time, Lou Xi wanted to protect Qin Mobai.
Someone wanted to kill Qin Mobai; if the first attempt failed, surely there would be a second and third unless the murderer was found, otherwise, Qin Mobai would remain in danger.
So when the surgery succeeded but Qin Mobai fell into a coma, Lou Xi proposed a bold idea to Su Lin—
Let Qin Mobai fake his death.
Qin Mobai was unconscious, and the situation was already against them; if Xi Siwei believed Qin Mobai was dead, he would let his guard down.
Additionally, this way, Qin Mobai could receive better treatment with peace of mind.
To play the part completely, they couldn’t transport Qin Mobai’s "body" back to Nancheng, otherwise, it would definitely be exposed.
The person in the morgue was indeed Qin Mobai, but once the body bag was zipped, they used the trick of a cat swapped for a prince.
Qin Mobai was sent to the Capital side, where Fu Sinian’s people received him.
The corpse sent to the crematorium was one without any claim from the morgue; once all was settled, Lou Xi would bury this urn elsewhere, but for now, it had to remain at her and Qin Mobai’s home.
Lou Xi buried her face in her hands, suppressing her tears.
Earlier, she always believed that no matter what happened, Qin Mobai was always there to support her from behind; she only needed to peacefully be Qin Mobai’s wife.
But now, with Qin Mobai in a coma, she had to hold this family together, otherwise, when Qin Mobai woke up, he would find the Qin Family had changed hands...
She had no choice but to be strong!
When Lou Xi appeared again at the downstairs restaurant, she was completely renewed.
However, her clothes were still in dark tones; as a woman who just "lost her husband", it was not fitting to wear overly bright clothes.
Also, wearing dark-toned clothes made one appear solemn and gave off an aura that could hold the scene.
"Xixi, I heard from Nan Ming that you’re going back to the Qin Family later. I thought about it; it’s better to have Nan Ming accompany you. I worry about you going back alone, those people in the Qin Family might devour you leaving not even bones."
Lou Xi: "..."
Ji Nanming: "..."
"Is my arrangement not good?"
Lou Xi silently sat in the chair eating.
"Very good." Ji Nanming cooperated in saying this, this man who especially knows how to win elders’ favor; terrifying.
"If Xixi goes alone, the people in the Qin Family might think there’s no support from her own family. We can leave aside the Qin Family’s fortune, but we cannot let our Xixi be wronged."
For some reason, Lou Xi’s nose turned sour, but because she lowered her head eating, no one noticed.
If Qin Mobai were there, if the child were there, she would be the happiest person in the world.
