Chapter 903
“Yes, Sir.” Butler Ye nodded his head respectfully.
“Firstly, send out a message that I’m buying a heart. If that person can find a compatible heart for Xuanji, he can inherit all the assets under my name. I want to use my power to look for a compatible heart.”
“Yes.”
“Secondly, ask the doctor to make the preparations. I want to undergo a heart compatibility test. It will be best if my heart is compatible with Xuanji.”
“...Yes.”
“Thirdly, prepare a grand wedding. Get the Milan designer to customize a white wedding gown. I want this gown to be ready for her to put on when she returns.”
“Yes.” Butler Ye noted everything down.
Lu Jinwen looked at Lu Fan. “You stay here. When I get married, all the members in the Lu family have to be present. Xuanji will like that.”
“Elder Brother,” Lu Fan swiftly replied. “If Lin Xuanji is not coming back, would that mean I’ve to wait here my entire life?”
Lu Jinwen’s handsome face became frosty and his features tightened. “Then you’ll wait here your entire life.”
“Mom, Elder Brother is not capable enough to marry his wife and he’s here bullying me instead!” Lu Fan complained to Old Madam Lu.
Old Madam Lu glanced at Lu Fan. “Who asked you to have such a foul mouth?”
“Mom, you’re biased!” Lu Fan felt aggrieved.
Lu Jinwen curved his lips. “You only know this now?”
Lu Fan was speechless.
Old Madam Lu said, “Lu Fan, your Elder Brother is getting uglier as he gets older and he needs tender loving care now. You have to tolerate for a while more.”
Lu Jinwen, “...”
...
There was a grand funeral held for Jun Mosheng at Country Z. Under his reign, Jun Mosheng was a good ruler and he was well-loved and respected by many.
Lu Jinwen had seen Lin Xuanji on television. Lin Xuanji was solemnly dressed in black and she wore a white flower on her head to pay respects to Jun Mosheng. She was present during the burial of Jun Mosheng and she never left him.
It had already been a very long time since she had left. Lu Jinwen flipped through his calendar and saw the red circle marked by him. She had already left for seven days and today was the eighth day.
Jun Mosheng was buried on the seventh day after his passing. She should have returned today.
Lu Jinwen got up and picked out a black shirt from his wardrobe to wear before looking at his own reflection. Despite being 50 years old already, he was still handsome and charming. His shoulders were broad and his eyes were deep and dark. He was mesmerizing and attractive.
He combed his hair and checked his reflection again to ensure he looked perfect before grabbing his car keys and exiting the room.
Half an hour later, the luxurious car stopped outside the airport. He walked up the platform. Initially, he was walking but gradually his speed increased and he was running.
He ran into the arrival hall of the airport.
At this moment, a message was broadcasted in the airport – Dear distinguished guests, a good day to you. The flight from Country Z bound for Capital has landed. Thank you for your cooperation.”
– “Look, our daughter is back!”
– “Hubby, here!”...
There were many people present to receive their lovers, relatives and friends, who were walking out from the door of the airport.
historical
They were embracing and laughing together in joy.
Lu Jinwen walked to the front of the full-length window and leaned over to scan the arriving crowd. Everyone had come out, but he did not see her.
He walked to the staff and asked, “Has everyone come out?”
“Yes, Sir.”
The staff closed the main door with a bang.
Lu Jinwen stood on the spot. There was a tinge of sadness in his deep almond-shaped eyes. So she did not return.
...
Half a month later. At the hospital.
Lu Jinwen was lying on the cold bed in the operating theater. The dazzling white light shone down on him and hurt his eyes.
“Mr Lu, I’m now going to inject the anesthesia into you. After the anesthesia, you will not feel any pain when I insert this tube into your heart to draw blood,” the doctor said respectfully.
Lu Jinwen shook his head. “There’s no need for the anesthesia. You can draw my blood straightaway.”
“Mr Lu, if I don’t inject the anesthesia, it’ll be very painful and the pain is excruciating.”
Lu Jinwen closed his eyes gently. “I don’t want to repeat myself.”
The doctor perspired profusely. He dared not delay the process and picked up a long needle to pierce into Lu Jinwen’s heart.
Pain.
It was just like what the doctor said. The pain was excruciating.
Lu Jinwen’s face was pale but he gradually curved his lips into a smile.
Xuanji, I finally can understand the pain you’re experiencing. But it’s such a pity, you have to experience such pain every day and night, whereas I’m only feeling it now.
It’s been half a month...
And you’re still not back.
I wait for you at the airport everyday with full of hope, but I’ll always return in disappointment. Are we going to spend our remaining time waiting? We’ve already missed out on so much in half of this lifetime.
But it’s okay, I’ll continue to wait for you.
Today I’ve come here to do a heart compatibility test. On one hand, I hope that my heart is compatible with you. This heart should be yours and I’m now returning it you. On the other hand, I selfishly hope that it’s not compatible, because... I wish to live longer than you so that I can have sufficient time to love you and keep you company.
The one who leaves first will be very peaceful, while the one who is left behind will be in pain.
But Xuanji, I will gladly take all of the pain you inflict on me.
...
One month later. On the 30th.
Lin Xuanji still had not returned, but it was already the 30th of the month. She was at the critical point of her life.
But she was still not by his side.
Lu Jinwen locked himself in his room the whole day. He watched as the hands of his expensive watch moved in circles. It was almost midnight.
He missed her so much.
He wanted to see her so much.
But he could not go.
Every minute, every second of this month he was in turmoil. There were countless times he had an impulse to just fly to Country Z. He would be contented even if he could sneak a peek at her, but he did not dare to do it.
He really did not dare to do it.
He had never known fear in his whole life, but at this moment, he was afraid.
He was afraid that she would not open her eyes again tonight.
He was afraid that she would remain by Jun Mosheng’s side forever.
He was even more afraid that this would be his and her ending.
Taking out his cell phone, his fingers dialed the familiar number. He could hear a melodious ring tone. It was the song “For the rest of my life”.
The singer Ma Liang was singing it in his unique voice –
I am looking for the sunshine where there is no wind. I will be your sunshine in the place where you’re cold.
It’s a complicated world but you’ve always been so pure.
I want to bring you to see the clear skies. I want to tell you loudly how much I love you. Time passes us by so quickly.
For the rest of my life, whether in the snowy winter, glorious spring and splendid autumn, there will always be you as the seasons come and go,
All my attention and tenderness in my heart
Are for you...
The melodious song was reverberating around repeatedly but nobody answered the phone.
He dialed her number again and again but no one picked up.
This sentence reverberated around his ears – All my attention and tenderness in my heart are for you.
Lu Jinwen gripped tightly the photograph of her in her youth. With knitted brows, he bit his fist. In that split second, his shoulders trembled as sobs wracked his entire body.
