A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu Chapter 989

“Blood clots… in her brain…”

Mu Sijue’s dark pupils contracted rapidly. For a moment, he felt that he couldn’t understand Doctor Liu’s words.

“Xu Youning looked healthy. Why were there blood clots in her brain?”

“No, that can’t be right—”

In fact, Xu Youning had not been well since she came back last time.

She would suddenly faint and sometimes, her face would inexplicably turn chalk-white. Today, she couldn’t even fight with Yang Shanshan who had no strength to even truss up a chicken.

Yang Shanshan said that Xu Youning seemed to have a headache.

The two blood clots in Xu Youning’s brain could explain all her abnormalities.

Now the problem was how did Xu Youning get the brain clots?

Mu Sijue wanted to ask Doctor Liu. But he felt something creeping into his heart wall which corroded it, bit by bit.

He covered his chest for a long time. Finally, he realized that the thing he felt was his guilt.

He trusted Xu Youning but did not have enough faith in her.

If he had been more observant, he would have found out about Xu Youning’s abnormality—on that night in the villa, when Xu Youning told him about her pregnancy, she suddenly burst into tears. But he only thought she was being emotional like other pregnant women.

Xu Youning had worked for Kang Ruicheng for such a long time and must have been trained to control her emotions. How could she be affected by pregnancy?

He should have noticed that something was wrong with Xu Youning at that time.

But he hadn’t.

Mu Sijue clenched his fists. The blue veins on the back of his hands stood out and his nails were almost embedded deep into his palms.

If he could turn the clock back, he would definitely not let Xu Youning leave no matter what she gave up at the top of the mountain.

However, there was no such magic in the world that could let a person go back to the past.

He could only do his best to save the situation.

Su Jian’an was also shocked.

When they were at the top of the mountain, Su Jian’an saw Xu Youning being in a trance several times. Xu Youning looked into the distance blankly like a person standing at an intersection, unable to see her future.

It was actually due to the blood clots in her brain.

Su Jian’an always said that she cared about Xu Youning, but she never knew how much Xu Youning had taken on alone.

Su Jian’an looked at Mu Sijue with mixed feelings and saw the regret in Mu Sijue’s eyes at a glance.

She was not surprised.

If she had been the one who faced such a situation, she would have felt more than guilt…

“Sijue, are you okay?” Su Jian’an said in a low voice, afraid that she would be rubbing salt on Mu Sijue’s wound.

Mu Sijue’s pupils slowly returned to normal and his hands gradually unclenched. He said in an unusually calm voice, “I’m fine.”

Su Jian’an wanted to believe Mu Sijue.

However, she knew better than anyone else that the more Mu Sijue said he was fine, it meant the situation was even more serious.

Fortunately, Mu Sijue didn’t need much time to fully accept the fact. He was calm and strong enough. He could digest the bad news as soon as possible and try to find the best solution.

Su Jian’an wanted to let Doctor Liu continue, but Mu Sijue motioned for her to stop. So she stopped talking cooperatively.

It seemed that Mu Sijue wanted to deal with the matter by himself.

Well, after all, it was between Xu Youning and him.

Mu Sijue pointed to the sofa next to him and asked Doctor Liu to sit down.

Mu Sijue’s high-handedness would make others feel oppressed. Compared with her fear for Kang Ruicheng, Doctor Liu was only in awe of Mu Sijue.

It was strange that she vaguely felt Mu Sijue, unlike Kang Ruicheng, would not hurt her.

Doctor Liu sat down with relief and asked, “Mr. Mu, what else do you want to know?”

Mu Sijue suppressed his feelings of guilt and remorse and asked, “How did the blood clots grow in Xu Youning’s brain?”

“Well, Ms. Xu didn’t tell me the details,” Doctor Liu said, “All I know is that she had a car accident about a year ago. The blood clots are the sequela of the car accident.”

“A car accident?”

Mu Sijue was shocked as if he had been struck by lightning.

At that time a year ago, Xu Youning was still working undercover for him.

In City A, Xu Youning was hit by a car and fell down a hill in order to save him. She hit her head hard and blood spurted from her head at that time.

He took Xu Youning to a private hospital as soon as possible to get the best treatment. The doctor told him that Xu Youning’s life was not in danger, but she had serious fractures and skin trauma.

The doctor didn’t mention any sequela.

Later, when they returned to City G, Xu Youning recovered rapidly and was full of energy again. Seeing her back to her normal self, he didn’t keep her injury in mind.

However, two blood clots started to form in Xu Youning’s brain after the car accident.

Mu Sijue gritted his teeth and asked in both anger and confusion, “Why did you not arrange a surgery for her?”

Doctor Liu hesitated for a moment and replied slowly, “Because of the baby she’s carrying.”

“Baby” was a very sensitive word for Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue narrowed his eyes and asked, “What does the baby have to do with Xu Youning’s blood clots?”

“It’s complicated,” Doctor Liu sighed and then told Mu Sijue, “The blood clots are in an unusual position, so the success rate of this operation is very low. And the worst thing is that Ms. Xu might die during the operation. Even if she survives, she may become a vegetable after the operation.”

Mu Sijue had expected that the blood clots in Xu Youning’s brain would be hard to treat.

But he had never thought that Xu Youning was in such a bad situation that her chance to be cured was desperately slim.

This time, what corroded Mu Sijue’s heart was no longer guilt, but pain.

Somehow, he felt a fiery hand gripping his heart and crushing it into pieces.

He finally experienced what it felt to be prostrate with grief.

The first time Xu Youning went back to Kang Ruicheng after her grandma died, she should have known about her condition.

However, she had kept it a secret from Mu Sijue totally and revealed nothing to him.

“Did she have so little trust in him?”

Anyway, he would find the best doctor for Xu Youning and forcibly keep her alive.

Seeing Mu Sijue was still calm, Doctor Liu continued, “The blood clots in Ms. Xu’s brain already put her in great danger. But the pregnancy affected the stability of the clots. We’ve advised Ms. Xu to give up the child and accept the treatment. She should save herself. However, she refused. She wanted to protect her child.”

“Protect her child?” Mu Sijue’s dark eyes turned cold, “The child is gone. Who was she protecting?”

He had seen Xu Youning holding an empty Mifepristone and Misoprostol bottle and the doctor also told him that the child had no signs of life.

He once thought that in order to go back to Kang Ruicheng, Xu Youning could even hurt an unborn child.

But now, Doctor Liu told him that Xu Youning gave up the chance to treat herself in order to protect her child?

What else did he not know?

Doctor Liu was more surprised than Mu Sijue. She looked at Mu Sijue in confusion and said, “Ms. Xu’s baby is fine. Mr. Mu, why do you think the baby is gone?”

“The baby was fine?”

Mu Sijue’s eyes darkened. He grabbed Doctor Liu’s collar and questioned, “Xu Youning took Mifepristone and Misoprostol. A doctor told me the baby was gone. When did you find out that her baby was still alive?”

Doctor Liu panicked for a second and soon realized what was going on. She said, “Mr. Mu, it’s all a misunderstanding. Ms. Xu’s child is really fine.”

Mu Sijue had a child but soon lost him. Now, Doctor Liu told him that his child came back.

Like a wild beast that was fully irritated, he roared in a low voice, “What misunderstanding?”

Doctor Liu hurriedly explained, “The blood clots would cause her pregnancy test results to be uncertain.”

The results of the pregnancy test would be uncertain.

Those words were like a bomb that suddenly exploded in the center of Mu Sijue’s world, almost blasting him into pieces.

Mu Sijue watched his world collapse but could only stand aside stiffly.

Doctor Liu thought Mu Sijue didn’t understand what she said, so she added, “Because of the blood clots, the results would always differ when Ms. Xu took the tests on different days. The first time I did the test for her, I found the child had no signs of life. But a few days ago when Ms. Xu came back, I arranged another test for her. This time, results showed that the child was still alive.”

Mu Sijue felt like his soul was hit by a heavy hammer. “Boom—”, his head was about to explode.

He thought of some fragments.

When Xu Youning sneaked into the villa to find the memory card left by Xiao Yunyun’s parents, she fell into his trap. Under his interrogation, she admitted that she was pregnant.

He was pretty sure that the child was his. He wanted the child and asked Xu Youning to proceed with the pregnancy.

When she heard that, Xu Youning broke down and cried bitterly.

She also thought the child showed no signs of life at that time.

Later, he listened to Su Jian’an’s advice and took Xu Youning to have a pregnancy test. The doctor told them that the child was very healthy.

Hearing this amazing news, Xu Youning carefully confirmed with the doctor repeatedly whether the child was really healthy.

When she got a positive answer from the doctor, she turned to hug him excitedly.

And she accepted his proposal of marriage not long after they returned to the top of the mountain.

At that moment, Mu Sijue felt his life was complete for the first time in the 30 years that he had lived.

However, shortly after that, Aunt Zhou and Tang Yulan were kidnapped.

Xu Youning admitted to him calmly that she took Mifepristone & Misoprostol. She even emphasized repeatedly that she had never believed him and would go back to Kang Ruicheng.

In a rage, Mu Sijue took Xu Youning to the hospital for an examination. The doctor told him that the child had no signs of life and it was caused by drugs.

At that moment, Mu Sijue hated Xu Youning to the core.

Even if Xu Youning didn’t believe him and regarded him as an enemy, how could she kill the innocent child so cruelly?

He grabbed Xu Youning’s neck and even pointed the gun at her head.

He really wanted to kill Xu Youning at that time…
