613: Who Is The Woman In He Zhing's Captivity?

Who Is The Woman In He Zhing's Captivity?

"I thought that I would be able to live …but the thought of staying in the same world without you seems so suffocating."

"You should not have come to me, marry me…none of this would have happened but you have always been stubborn."

In the past life, he was stubborn not to love her and in this life, he was stubborn to love her only.

"I keep trying to go away from you…only to realize in the end that I still love you."

"Then…Lanlan still loves me."

Mo Roulan was shocked when she heard the words.

She raised her head from He Jian's hand to look at his face.

"Jian….you are awake…"

Mo Roulan thought that she had never felt so happy in her life. Her eyes were wide with surprise but anyone could see the brightness in them.

"Let me call the doctor."

She said as she moved her body towards the button which was on the bedside table to call the doctor urgently.

However, He Jian held her hand and stopped her from turning around. His hold was not tight as his body didn't have strength but Mo Roulan didn't want him to exert any force so she let him hold her hand and looked at him.

"Lanlan still loves me."

It was more of a statement than a question.

Mo Roulan looked into his eyes. His face was still pale but his eyes demanded her to confirm what he saw saying.

A tear rolled down from her eye as she squeezed his hand gently and nodded her head. She could lie to He Jian but could she lie to herself?

At this moment, she just wanted him to stay alive.

She forgot all the promises she had made to herself.

Regardless of how much pain he was in, He Jian had a small smile on his lips. It broke Mo Roulan's heart.

"Then Lanlan will stay with me?"

This time he asked and Mo Roulan again nodded her head.

"Yes"

He Jian finally left her hand, allowing her to call the doctor.

Mo Roulan pressed the button. A nurse entered the room immediately followed by He Zhuang.

When He Zhuang looked towards the bed and saw his son's opened eyes, his whole body relaxed.

His eyes went to Mo Roulan's face which was stained with tears but he didn't say anything. When the doctor came, the nurse asked Mo Roulan and He Zhuang to leave the room.

However, He Jian frowned.

"Lanlan will stay."

"Mr. He, we need to check your wound and other things."

However, He Jian was stubborn and said

"She is my wife."

Mo Roulan's heart fluttered inside her chest at these words. She looked at the frown on He Jian's forehead and then asked the doctor softly.

"Doctor, can I stay? I will not disturb you at all."

The doctor sighed and nodded his head in the end.

Therefore, He Zhuang left the room and Mo Roulan stayed. The doctor checked the wound and then told the nurse a few things.

After he left, the nurse gave an injection to He Jian to make him sleep again and then she left to bring a few other things.

There was silence inside the room after the nurse left.

He Jian was unable to fight the sleep coming over. He was still holding Mo Roulan's hand. Before closing his eyes, he looked at her and said

"Lanlan, be here when I wake up, alright?"

"Alright"

Mo Roulan whispered and watched him close his eyes. Soon she could hear his even breaths telling her that he was asleep.

Sitting on the chair near the bed, Mo Roulan finally got the time to ponder on whatever happened in the last half an hour.

She told him that she would stay…but could she really stay. She exhaled sharply and leaned against the chair as she closed her eyes to get some rest. She wanted to shut everything out for some time and give herself a break.

She didn't know how much time had passed but Mo Roulan woke up when someone shook her shoulder. She raised her head to find He Zhuang standing by her side.

Her eyes then went to the bed where He Jian was still sleeping. A nurse was also inside the room and arranging a few things on the bedside table and writing on paper something from the machines attached to He Jian's body.

He Zhuang signed her to follow him out. Mo Roulan nodded her head. When she stood up, she realized that her hand was still in He Jian's hold, she carefully removed his hand and finally followed He Jian out of the room.

Mo Roulan saw the police inspector standing outside the room. She felt guilty when she saw Chi Rong as well.

Chi Rong must have come for her specifically and she completely forgot about him.

"Mrs. He"

The police inspector called out attracting Mo Roulan's attention. Mo Roulan looked at him only to hear him say

"I am here to ask you about the woman who was with you in the forest. Do you know her?"

It was only then Mo Roulan remembered about that woman.

"Where is she?"

She immediately asked the police inspector.

"She is in the same hospital currently. We have taken to the police station and were trying to find out about her but she neither talks nor let anyone touch her. She suddenly started shouting and screaming when a policewoman tried to help her in changing clothes. We also found out that she has many bruises and scars on her body."

Mo Roulan nodded her head. Her eyes were filled with concern. She wanted to go and see the woman immediately.

But she knew that the talk with inspector was also necessary. Only he would be able to find out about her family and then send her back to them.

"I don't know about her actually. She was locked in the same house where He Zhing had locked me."2

The police inspector had a somber expression on his face when he heard this and said

"Then it might be possible that He Zhing might have other such women in his captivities as well."

Mo Roulan didn't say anything because she didn't really knew the answer.

Nonethless the police inspector continued

"We have arrested He Zhing already and we will try to find more from him. We doubt that his son He Juan was equally involved but since he is still in the hospital, we can only investigate him after he finishes his treatment. One of them must be …"

The police inspector was forced to pause amidst his words when a figure suddenly appeared and held Mo Roulan's arm.

Mo Roulan was also startled but when she who it was, her body relaxed and her eyes softened.

It was the same woman. She was still wearing the same clothes.

Mo Roulan frowned when she saw this.

"Hey…did you…"

But she couldn't complete her words as someone interrupted her.

"Zhuzhu…"
