Chapter 816: Going back to where we came from
In that luxurious and quiet sea view villa, the night was like a heavy piece of black silk, weighing heavily on Mu Xiaoji's heart, forcing him to curl up in the curtains and remain awake all night.
His mind was like a mess, with thousands of thoughts in his mind, and he couldn't figure out why he was just sincerely invited by the South City Prison.
Why did coming to treat a virus-infected prisoner trigger a series of domino-like chain reactions?
He was acting out of kindness and responsibility as a doctor, but he inadvertently blocked the criminals' financial resources, which brought him disaster and he was hunted down by vicious criminals.
Andreas, after raping Mu Xiaoji while drunk at the Tiandufu Hotel, felt guilty and condemned himself.
Upon learning that unidentified armed men were secretly following Mu Xiaoji, he sent members of his own mercenary group to protect him secretly.
Finally, at Kuncheng Shopping Center, when they found Mu Xiaoji being chased, Andreas blocked the fatal blow for Mu Xiaoji at the critical moment.
Afterwards, Andreas, who always acted decisively and courageously, resolutely blew up the Al Robuk helicopter on the high seas in order to completely eliminate the international criminal.
Afterwards, he sent a video to Mu Xiaoji to reassure her and to show her that his injuries did not affect his discharge from the hospital.
However, the trajectory of fate is always full of drama and impermanence. Secretary Li Yanshan is in the command center,
This video was intercepted accidentally, and by mistake, Mu Xiaoji was arrested and strictly investigated as a major suspect.
Amidst this series of misfortunes, Mu Xiaoji was exhausted both physically and mentally and overworked for days.
His heart and lungs were already damaged by his previous experience, and to make matters worse, Song Lan injected him with the virus source.
This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the already fragile heart and lung functions, causing them to eventually collapse due to the tremendous pressure of failure.
Fortunately, with the unremitting efforts and full rescue efforts of many friends, Karina finally found a suitable donor heart and lungs for him with her unyielding perseverance and extensive network of contacts.
At the Cornell Medical Center in Los Angeles, two renowned and highly skilled professors, Drucker and Adresse, relied on their superb medical skills and rich clinical experience.
A successful heart-lung transplant operation saved his precious life from the clutches of death.
This should have been a great thing that made him ecstatic, but fate did not let him go.
His father, Song Shijie, was working tirelessly to win the bidding for the new construction project in Kuncheng.
Under tremendous pressure and hard work, he was finally exhausted and collapsed helplessly.
Little Jiang Shuo, who had been taking care of Jiang Chengyu in G City, learned of the changes in his family and was forced to rush back to Kuncheng with Jiang Chengyu to shoulder the important responsibility of winning the bidding project.
At this critical moment, as if by a trace of mercy from fate, Jiang Chengyu miraculously woke up.
At that time, Mu Xiaoji, who was in Cornell Medical Center in Los Angeles, had no idea that he was in a critical stage of recuperation after the heart and lung transplant surgery.
After hearing the news that her lover Jiang Chengyu had woken up, the longing and concern in her heart was like a surging tide that was difficult to suppress, and she couldn't wait to return to Jiang Chengyu's side.
When he finally persuaded Andreas to send a private helicopter to take him back to Kuncheng,
When I was filled with joy to face my lover Jiang Chengyu, who had accompanied me day and night and cared for me carefully,
Jiang Chengyu's strange and indifferent attitude was like a sharp ice knife, piercing straight into his heart.
It made him feel as if he had fallen into an abyss in an instant. The heartache was like being in a cold pond in the underworld, icy and painful.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoji couldn't help but recall the precious moment when they worked together to perform surgery on the old man in the military hospital.
At that time, Jiang Chengyu carefully and attentively described the details of the old man's illness and every aspect that required special attention during the operation. His words were full of professionalism and calmness.
He also devoted himself to it. From time to time, Jiang Chengyu picked up the instruments with his left hand to help himself deal with the key parts that needed to be uncovered during the operation.
At that moment, Jiang Chengyu was still like the little monster who once doted on him, considerate, gentle, and intimate, as if the relationship between them was indestructible.
However, after walking out of the operating room, all the beautiful fantasies shattered like bubbles and disappeared without a trace.
These days, the only reason Jiang Shuo returned to the sea view villa and stayed there for a short time was because he begged him to paint a birthday picture for Secretary Li Yanshan.
However, Gu Ze's undisguised love for Jiang Chengyu was like a thorn that pierced deeply into Mu Xiaoji's heart.
Gu Ze carefully prepared many special new products all day long and happily brought them over to share with Jiang Chengyu and Jiang Shuo.
Mu Xiaoji already had gastrointestinal discomfort and could not eat spicy food at all. Feng Tao was like a sharp pestle with thorns. The sarcasm and squeeze in his words made him exhausted.
He really didn't want to get into a meaningless argument with others, so he had no choice but to quietly avoid it in the bedroom.
Even Xiao Yue, after delivering the plain noodles to Mu Xiaoji's bedroom, tactfully stayed in his room and did not come out again.
Mu Xiaoji really couldn't bear to watch his lover smiling and dining with other men day after day, while he himself felt like an out-of-place third party, caught in this awkward atmosphere.
His heart was filled with pain and helplessness, as if shrouded in an invisible haze. On this day, Mu Xiaoji finally made up his mind to leave.
He slowly opened the wardrobe, his movements slow and heavy, and put some unnecessary things and clothes into the wardrobe one by one.
Then, he took out a clean white sheet and carefully covered the bed, wardrobe, coffee table, and sofa with it, as if to seal away this painful memory.
He slowly looked around, his eyes full of loneliness and reluctance, and the happy scenes of the past emerged in his mind.
Jiang Chengyu picked me up from the balcony while I was watching the sea, kissed me passionately as they walked, and fell into the big white bed, giving myself to each other. Everything that happened here was deeply engraved in my mind.
After doing all this, he walked to the restaurant downstairs with heavy steps and a lonely look on his face.
At this time, Xiao Yue was busy preparing breakfast. When he saw Mu Xiaoji coming downstairs, a smile immediately broke out on his face and he said affectionately, "Good morning, young master."
Mu Xiaoji forced a faint, almost invisible smile and responded, "Sister Xiaoyue, you've worked hard these days!"
Xiao Yue deftly arranged the food and said, "It's not hard. Please sit down, Master. I'll go get you some porridge."
Mu Xiaoji walked to the corner and sat down silently, saying softly: "Sister Xiaoyue, Jiang Shuo and the others are carefully taken care of every day.
If you feel uncomfortable here, go back to your grandma! Your foot injury hasn't healed for long, so don't walk around too much to avoid causing further damage."
Xiao Yue responded generously, "Grandma and the others are worried about you, so they asked me to come and take care of you. I can't be lazy."
Mu Xiaoji lowered his head slightly and said dejectedly, "I'm going back to G City."
Xiao Yue, holding a bowl of porridge, was stunned when he heard this and stood in front of Mu Xiaoji. He asked in surprise, "Chou Bao is leaving too? Aren't you going to wait until after the New Year?"
Mu Xiaoji slowly shook his head, his eyes filled with sadness. Xiao Yue felt mixed emotions and sighed:
"Grandma and the others miss you so much when it comes to New Year's Eve. I feel so distressed when I see Grandma's expression."
Mu Xiaoji responded softly: "Choubao won't leave. I will go back to where I came from.
I can't selfishly deprive Jiang Shuo of his happiness just because I am his father.
Originally, he lived a very happy life with his little dad, grandparents, and mother.
But my appearance caused him two years of pain. Now that I have finally returned to perfection, I can no longer be so selfish!
Just as he finished speaking, the crisp doorbell rang, interrupting Xiao Yue's explanation.
Then he looked outside the restaurant, put down his bowl of porridge and said, "It must be Mr. Gu and the others," while preparing to open the door.
Mu Xiaoji quickly stood up and stopped her, saying, "Sister Xiaoyue, I'll go open the door." After that, he was the first to walk out of the restaurant.
Arriving at the door, Mu Xiaoji took a deep breath and slowly opened it. He saw Gu Ze and Feng Tao standing outside with smiles on their faces. Gu Ze politely greeted them, "Good morning, Mr. Mu."
Mu Xiaoji forced a faint smile and said, "Good morning. Did you bring some delicious food for Mr. Jiang again?"
Gu Ze nodded happily: "Well, Mr. Mu, come and try it together. I also made black chicken, red dates and wolfberry soup."
Mu Xiaoji responded politely: "Thank you, come in!"
Feng Tao jokingly said, "Mr. Mu looks particularly energetic today! Are you ready to go out?"
Mu Xiaoji nodded and said, "Assistant Feng has a keen eye!" After that, he closed the door and
Turning around, I saw Jiang Chengyu and Jiang Shuo with rosy faces and sweat drenched through their vests, as they walked out of the gym in strong physiques.
Jiang Chengyu hurried forward to greet Gu Ze, and said angrily, "Don't you find it troublesome? Making so many things and sending them here every day."
Gu Ze responded happily: "It's no trouble. As long as you are happy, I am happy." Mu Xiaoji looked at the lively scene in the living room, his heart full of envy and helplessness.
Just then, the doorbell rang again. Mu Xiaoji retracted his gaze, turned around, opened the door, and saw that it was the taxi driver.
The driver had a warm smile on his face and asked, "Excuse me, is this the taxi you reserved?"
Mu Xiaoji nodded and said, "Yes, it's me."
The driver asked kindly: "Can we go now?"
Mu Xiaoji said concisely: "Okay, let's go!" After that, Mu Xiaoji walked out of the room.
Turning back, he looked at the lively crowd in the living room again, only to see Gu Ze holding a piece of food in his hand.
It was handed to Jiang Chengyu's mouth. Jiang Chengyu opened his mouth with a bright smile and ate it with happiness in his eyes.
His eyes dimmed instantly, filled with loneliness. He silently closed the door and followed the taxi driver to the parking space.
The driver opened the door and politely escorted Mu Xiaoji into the car. Then he walked to the driver's seat, started the engine, and slowly drove away from this sea view villa that carried countless memories and pains for him.
