The man was frozen stiff, not knowing where to begin.
She woke up just like...that?
What now?
He was worried when she was unconscious.
Anxious when he heard the physician's report.
Now he felt conflicted.
Was this her acceptance to his promise?
Qing Yue was still fuming at Li Feng in her mind when she heard the deep voice of a man beside her. She blinked once, twice, before slowly turning her head.
Bandaged like a mummy from head to toe, her movements were anything but flexible and painless. But Qing Yue ignored the numbing pain spreading through her body and fixed her sight on the figure.
What entered her sight was a blue slim fit suit wrapped around a tall, well-defined, figure. Her gaze lifted up, but as her body was stiff from the many wrappings, her sight only caught his defined jaw and thin, firm lips.
"You...who are...you?" Da**! Why did she sound like an 80-year-old lady?
Did...did the smoke damage

"Commander Long, Young Master Long, and Mr. Li...I'm sorry to say this, but...Young Mistress Qing Yue won't be able to stand on her feet anymore. Moreover, the injury on her face...she's likely to be...disfigured for life." The moment Dr. Ren finished his speech, he sighed in relief and weakly slumped against the wall. Speaking to these gods was draining. And yet, he still needed to preserve his strength to face their wrath. To face such a catastrophe, his good fortune for this life must've run out. The three men were frozen stiff. There wasn't a trace of emotion to be found on their faces. But their vacant and dazed eyes spoke volumes of their state of mind. "What...did you say?" The first to return to his senses was Commander Long. Grinded by war and gore, the matter of disability and disfigurement, though devastating, didn't hit him as an earth-shattering news. "Qing Qing will never be able to walk again? She'll be disfigured for life? Are you saying the advancement in med
Thrilling Storm But Not Discouraged
The soul shuddering wails even made her tremble in dread. To produce such horrific wails, what kind of agonizing pain was she experiencing? The ward swung open and a frantic Long Tian, Li Chen, and Long Hongwu were ushered out. "Dr. Ren, what's going on? Why is Yue'er screaming?" Li Chen was close to collapsing from grief. When had his beloved daughter ever wailed like this? As far as he could remember, Li Qing Yue had never cried after her first birthday. "Mr. Li, don't worry. The pain-relief medication we'd administered must've run out. After changing medication, she'll calm down." "You're telling me you didn't change her medication on time? What kind of professionalism is this? You yourself said her injuries are grave. So how can you forget to monitor her medication?" Long Tian was enraged. The girl's wails were anything but humane. Harsh, jarring, and heart-rending, the sound made even his heart tremble.
Thrilling Storm But Not Discouraged 2
Qing Yue blinked. Never walk again? Disfigured for life? This must've been what Li Feng meant when he said she could regain her original appearance. Sigh. I wonder how long the process will take... Seeing her expression remain as impassive as before Long Hongwu revealed the news, the three men in the room tensed up. It couldn't be the news was too huge of a blow for her to react, right? At this thought, they felt even more anxious. "Qing Qing, don't worry. Uncle Long will find all the best medical doctors in the country to help you. You'll be better in no time." "Yes, Yue'er. If necessary, we'll even fly in a foreign specialist to treat you. So don't feel depressed. You'll be better in no time." "You'll probably feel hopeless and discouraged because the treatment will not be easy. It will even be painful. But we'll be with you. As long as you don't give up, there's hope." Qing Yue returned to her senses
Thrilling Storm Signing The Marriage Certificate
Once again, the men in the room were shocked speechless. Qing Yue's words were like a clap of thunder. That's right. Unless one gave the words of others great importance, at the end of the day, they were nothing more than mere air blowing through their ear. The people in the room knew this. But it wasn't until they heard Qing Yue say it that they saw the light. In this society where the new generation placed high importance on others' opinions and views of them, it was difficult to maintain a mindset where they could brush off and not allow themselves to be affected by any unpleasant comment or remark. So Qing Yue's words made the mean feel refreshed and ashamed of their own shortsightedness. Rather than give importance to what others thought, they should reflect more on themselves. "Qing Qing, Uncle Long has nothing else to say. I can see that you are more clear-minded about what's important than us, so I'll stop worrying needlessly.
Thrilling Storm Signing The Marriage Certificate 2
The three men's sight instantly shifted to the girl. Finding her expression as impassive and expressionless as before, they secretly sighed in relief. It's good she isn't affected... The next moment, their gazes turned cold. They weren't born yesterday so how could they miss the malice and scorn in the three women's tone? They hadn't come to see a patient. They came to mock and ridicule the girl until she broke and shattered and could no longer get back on her feet. "Sisters-in-law, that's enough. Yue'er isn't in the condition for this sort of talks." Li Chen's voice held faint hints of anger. If they weren't his brothers wives, he would've directly kicked them out. But whether the three middle-aged women failed to catch his barely restrained anger or purposely ignored it was unknown. Because they disregarded his words and continued their rant. Aunt Hong turned to Li Chen with a sad and pained expression on her
Thrilling Storm Signing The Marriage Certificate 3
Qing Yue looked at the three men in confusion. Would anyone please tell her what's going on? Weren't they chatting nice and well? Why had the situation suddenly come to her marriage? "Da...Dad, marriage?" She hoped he'd say she'd misheard. She hoped he'd say it was someone else's marriage. Unfortunately... "Yes, Yue'er. Little Tian and you will sign your marriage certificates today. Then after your discharge, you'll go to your new home, the Long Mansion." Li Chen's eyes practically glowed as he spoke about his daughter's marriage. His gaze shifted to the stunned Qing Yue and a despondent look appeared in his eyes. He wasted 18 years of his daughter's growth wandering in a hazy mist of a past long gone. Now that he broke out of the mist and saw the light, he realized the little child he held in his arms had already sprouted into a young sapling. She was a woman getting married. A woman that would leave for her ow
Thrilling Storm Signing The Marriage Certificate 4
"See? I told you Qing Qing wasn't ready. Brother-in-law, you should drop this matter for now." Aunt Hong immediately jumped at the opportunity to stop the two's marriage. If she could, she would've snatched the certificates out of Li Chen's hands and ripped them to shreds! "Yes, Brother-in-law. Qing Qing isn't ready. Let her fully recover first." Aunt Si nervously added. She didn't have any other way to live an enviable life. Getting Li Qing Yue tied to her Mu'er and consuming all her wealth was her life-long goal. "Qing Qing, don't worry. You won't have to marry if you're not ready. Brother-in-law won't force you." Even more desperate than the other two as she only had a daughter, Aunt Mei even explicitly implied that Li Chen was forcing Qing Yue into marrying. "Qing Qing, just recover well. You can get married whenever you want to. After all, you are Li Qing Yue. With your status and wealth, do you need to be afraid of not getting married?"
Thrilling Storm Long Mansion 1
"Sigh. Finally peace. Brother Li, I admire you for having the patience to tolerate these women." Long Hongwu tiredly pulled on his tie. He was a man of steel and action. Word games and schemes weren't his forte. Just from the brief clash of words, he felt as drained as if he'd exchanged blows with a formidable opponent. "Brother Long, they are my brothers' wives. I have no choice but to tolerate them." Li Chen smiled awkwardly, a little embarrassed at the mention of the earlier farce. "Let's not mention them anymore. Brother Li, from now on, we're in-laws, haha! I want to share this news with Madam. She'll need to prepare to welcome her new daughter-in-law." With another loud chuckle, Great Commander Long left the room. Li Chen looked at the newly married couple and felt gratified. He was satisfied with Long Tian as his son-in-law. The young man and his daughter had been engaged from childhood. The fact that he was the one to bring Qing Yue to
