The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession

Li Siru’s gastrectomy went smoothly, but she still hadn’t woken up.

Lu Beiyao stayed at the hospital for several days. She lay there with her eyes closed, motionless, her already frail frame like a slip of paper, as if she could leave him at any moment.

"Beiyao, there are nurses here taking care of her. You don’t have to stay here every day. Listen to your mother and go home to get a good sleep. Besides, the company also needs your attention." Tu Meijiao urged him earnestly. She wished that woman would just die, so she wouldn’t ruin her son’s life.

"Exactly, cousin, you don’t even like her. If she dies..."

"Who allowed you to say that?!" Lu Beiyao suddenly snapped and looked over, scaring Tu Yingying, causing her to shrink her head.

Tu Meijiao was also helpless and furious.

Lu Beiyao said calmly, "Mom, I’ve said it before, she is the only person I will ever consider my wife. You’d better pray that she keeps on living."

What if? If she dies, will he really follow her? Or even if he lives, will he never marry again?

Tu Meijiao only felt her blood pressure rising again and placed her hand on her forehead to calm down, while Tu Yingying quickly supported her.

Lu Beiyao then said, "Yingying, take your aunt home. I don’t need you here. I will let you know once she wakes up."

"Aunt?" Yingying was caught between a rock and a hard place.

Tu Meijiao said sharply, "Let’s go back. We’ll leave right now. I can’t interfere in his matters anymore!"

Tu Yingying helped her walk out. The door slammed shut, and it immediately went quiet again, so quiet that one could almost hear her breathing, proving that she was still alive.

Lu Beiyao stared at the person on the bed for a long time before gently holding her hand. It seemed like he had never properly held it over these years to the point where he forgot when the first time was.

"What will it take for you to wake up?" His hoarse voice carried a trace of sorrow, "Or, do you not want to see me anymore, so you refuse to wake up?"

No response for a long time. Lu Beiyao held her hand and lowered his head to rest it on his forehead, "As long as you wake up, you can do whatever you want. If you want a divorce, I’ll let you go!"

After saying the last sentence, he gripped her hand even tighter, "Alright?"

Lu Beiyao felt as if her delicate fingers moved slightly, but in the end, there was still no movement.

In the end, still holding her hand, he fell asleep again beside the hospital bed.

When Lu Beiyao woke up again, she was sitting on the hospital bed looking at him. He stared blankly for a few seconds before reaching over to touch her forehead, "Are you okay? You’re really awake!"

"You can let go of my hand now!" Li Siru said calmly. She had woken up to find him asleep at the side and tried to pull her hand away but couldn’t due to his tight grip.

She laid there for a while and later sat up, yet he still didn’t respond. Ultimately, she had to wait quietly for him to wake up.

In the past, it was always like this. He would be out carousing, drunk and lying beside her, as she quietly watched, but never had he specifically stayed beside her. But, so what?

Only then did Lu Beiyao notice he was still holding her hand, and he quickly let go, getting up awkwardly, "I’ll call the doctor."

"Lu Beiyao!"

Lu Beiyao paused his steps.

"No need to call the doctor. I’m fine!" Her voice was still very weak but indeed had some strength, "Lu Beiyao, I seemed to vaguely hear you say that even if I wanted a divorce, you’d let me go, right?"
