Chapter 611 - 592: Still Unconscious
After Lou Xi finished speaking, the reporters quieted down and began to self-reflect.
Ultimately, they weren’t completely heartless people; they felt that asking such tasteless questions after someone’s husband had died was akin to rubbing salt into an open wound.
"If there are no more questions, we will be leaving first." Lou Xi put her sunglasses back on and departed the airport under the escort of Su Lin and the airport security personnel.
Lou Xi didn’t go back to the Qin Family; instead, she returned to the apartment she and Qin Mobai had previously lived in. In Lou Xi’s heart, this was her home with Qin Mobai.
Upon arriving, Lou Xi was stunned by the interior decor.
When she returned from the Seychelles, she had gone directly to the Qin Family and hadn’t yet come back.
Later, after discussing the matter with Qin Mobai regarding Huaiyu, she hadn’t thought much at the time; how could she have known that Qin Mobai, who claimed not to like children, had already transformed his storage room in the apartment into a nursery, although the room was not completely finished.
The room contained a crib, and the wallpaper was specially changed to a rather whimsical cartoon design.
The unfinished room unfolded in front of Lou Xi, as if telling her that her child had met with the same untimely fate.
She took a deep breath and placed the urn in a discreet spot.
When she was alone with Su Lin, Lou Xi couldn’t hold back any longer, took out her phone, and dialed a number.
The call was quickly answered.
"How is he?" Lou Xi didn’t hide the concern etched on her face.
"He’s still in a coma, and it’s uncertain when he will wake up."
Lou Xi covered her cheek with one hand, tension and worry, all emotions surged to her heart.
"Alright, please call me if there are any updates."
Lou Xi hung up the phone heavily, her entire being caught in a state of anxious restlessness.
"Madam, have some water," Su Lin offered warm water.
Lou Xi accepted it, her thoughts somewhat adrift.
"What should I do now... what’s next?" Lou Xi asked Su Lin. She felt she had exhausted a force she hadn’t used in years over the past two days; she didn’t know how much longer she could sustain it.
"You need to take charge at the Qin Family. Mr. Qin is overseeing things, so there won’t be any major issues, but only you are suitable for the position of Executive Director."
Having a say in the Qin Family means basically controlling the whole Qin Family, and on this issue, there can be no mistakes.
"Alright, I’ll go right away..." Lou Xi hastily packed her belongings, although there was nothing much to pack.
She was nervous.
"Why not take a rest first, there’s no rush."
"No, not a second to spare. I must protect everything of Mo Bai’s, otherwise..." As Qin Mobai’s wife, how could she fail even in such small matters?
Su Lin couldn’t stop her, so he had no choice but to accompany Lou Xi as they left for the destination, the Qin Family.
The high-pressure operation made Lou Xi’s head feel heavy, but she simply couldn’t stop, fearing a big error would occur if she did.
However, Lou Xi hadn’t made it to the Qin Family when Shen Youran, knowing she had returned, intercepted her on the road.
Seeing Lou Xi so haggard, Shen Youran refused to let her go to the Qin Family, insisting on taking her to the Half Mountain Manor to rest properly.
Lou Xi couldn’t argue with Shen Youran and had to follow her to the Half Mountain Manor.
Once there, Lou Xi realized that most of the entourage from last time was gone, leaving only a dozen or so people to take care of Shen Youran’s daily needs.
"Where’s Uncle Ji?" Lou Xi asked.
"He went back early due to some matters. If he were still here, he could help a bit." Shen Youran held Lou Xi’s hand, "It’s okay, you still have me."
