Chapter 287 Relief
Finally arriving at Bai Ling's residence, Li Youquan finally calmed down his emotions.
He took a deep breath and said to Meng Qingxiang.
"Thank you for sending me here."
Meng Qingxiang smiled, said nothing, and silently opened the car door for him.
Li Youquan got out of the car and walked towards Bai Ling's door.
He knew that no matter what the outcome, he had done his best.
As for Asong's future, he can only leave it to fate.
But no matter what, he would not treat Asong's family unfairly.
When Bai Ling gently turned the doorknob and the door slowly opened, she unexpectedly found Li Youquan standing at the door, motionless, as if frozen in time.
His eyes were empty and his face was pale, and it was obvious that something was very wrong.
Bai Ling's heart tightened, and she immediately walked forward and gently pulled Li Youquan into the house.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Bai Ling's voice was soft and concerned. She was keenly aware that Li Youquan was in an extremely heavy mood at the moment.
As she spoke, she gently held Li Youquan's hand, hoping to bring him some comfort with her warmth.
Li Youquan was silent for a while before he spoke slowly.
"I went to inquire about the situation today."
Although this sentence was incoherent, Bai Ling seemed to understand its meaning.
She frowned slightly and stopped moving her hands.
She didn't ask immediately because she was afraid of hearing some bad news.
"Uncle Wu told me that Hu Jianjun and his men are all gone, except for one who is seriously injured and unconscious. I'm afraid he won't wake up."
Li Youquan finally said this sentence, his voice was dry and trembling.
He obviously could not accept this cruel fact. Although he had heard the news a long time ago and even went to see Asong's condition in person, he was still unwilling to admit this cruel reality.
When Bai Ling heard this, she also stood there in a daze.
She obviously didn't expect this result, and an indescribable grief surged in her heart.
She sat silently beside Li Youquan, and they both sat there in silence, no one spoke.
At this moment, the room was filled with a heavy atmosphere, as if even the air had frozen.
Bai Ling gently held Li Youquan's hand, trying to bring him some comfort with her own strength.
She knew that Li Youquan needed time to calm down, and she was willing to stay by his side until he got back on his feet.
It was unknown how long it had passed, but Li Youquan finally came to his senses from his deep contemplation, but his face still looked heavy, as if he was carrying endless worries.
He looked up at Bai Ling, with a hint of expectation and helplessness in his eyes.
"When you have time, come with me to the hospital to see Song. Maybe he wakes up at some point."
When Bai Ling heard this, she felt mixed emotions.
She understood that Li Youquan was comforting her as well as himself.
They all knew that if it weren't for escorting Professor Wang to Haicheng safely, if it weren't for allowing them to escape smoothly, Hu Jianjun and his men would not have fallen into such a dangerous situation.
Bai Ling nodded gently, as if responding to Li Youquan's expectations, and also telling herself that she was willing to visit Asong and hoped to see the day when he recovered.
In fact, Li Youquan wanted to see Asong not only because he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.
The important thing is that he fed Asong so much spiritual spring water before he left, but he didn’t know whether it really worked.
If it really works, then he must find another opportunity to feed Asong some.
"Let's not tell Professor Wang about this for now."
When Li Youquan walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Bai Ling.
This was also the result of his careful consideration. It was better to hide the news of Hu Jianjun's death from Professor Wang.
Bai Ling was slightly startled, then she understood what Li Youquan meant.
Before leaving, Professor Wang specifically told them that if they had any news about Hu Jianjun, they must contact them immediately.
But how can they speak in the current situation?
“Professor Wang and Teacher Guo are both kind-hearted people.”
Li Youquan continued, with a helpless smile in his eyes.
"If they knew that Hu Jianjun and his men had sacrificed their lives for our safety, how could they continue their lives with peace of mind?"
Bai Ling nodded slightly to show her agreement.
From the beginning, she had no intention of telling Professor Wang and Teacher Guo about Hu Jianjun's situation.
If they were still alive, it would be fine.
But now that the person is gone, we cannot let them know this cruel truth.
"it is good."
Bai Ling responded softly, with a determined light in her eyes.
She knew that no matter how many difficulties and challenges there were in the future, she and Li Youquan would face them together and protect their family and friends together.
After walking out of Bai Ling's house, Li Youquan's mood seemed to have been sorted out. He took a deep breath of fresh air, trying to calm his inner turmoil.
Meng Qingxiang stood at the door and offered to send Li Youquan home, but Li Youquan shook his head firmly, indicating that he wanted to walk back to the courtyard alone.
Even though the conversation with Bai Ling had made him feel a little relieved, Li Youquan still wanted to be alone for a while.
Meng Qingxiang watched Li Youquan's back getting farther and farther away, and an unspeakable worry surged in his heart.
He was well aware of Li Youquan's inner struggle and anxiety at the moment, so after hesitating for a moment, he did not leave immediately, but started his car and slowly followed Li Youquan.
He hoped that at least he would be able to get home safely.
In fact, Li Youquan had not walked far when he noticed the car slowly following behind him.
He turned his head slightly and saw Meng Qingxiang's focused and worried eyes through the car window.
However, he did not stop or look back, but continued on his way.
He knew Meng Qingxiang's concern and understood his worries, but he hoped that he could face it all alone.
Li Youquan shook his head helplessly in his heart. He knew that Meng Qingxiang was worried that he would do something stupid.
But he also knew that what he needed was not the sympathy and pity of others, but time and space to sort out his emotions.
But he also knew that Meng Qingxiang wanted to report back, so he didn't say anything more and just let him follow.
Finally, Li Youquan stepped into the gate of the familiar courtyard house.
He looked back at Meng Qingxiang and saw that he had already gotten out of the car and was standing beside it, his eyes full of concern.
He nodded slightly, indicating that he had arrived home safely.
Meng Qingxiang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. He watched Li Youquan's back disappear into the depths of the courtyard before he prepared to start the car and leave.
