Kidnap a superstar for a romance

Chapter 457 Day 453 of Being the Boss

The phone fell from his hand onto the bed, and the voice of Li Jingwen from the other end of the line became increasingly distant from his ears.

At this moment, Quan Zhilong felt that the sounds around him were becoming unreal little by little, as if they had been deliberately processed.

The sharp tinnitus was like the alarm of a malfunctioning machine, occupying the entire brain in an instant.

After a few seconds, the piercing tinnitus disappeared, and all the sounds around seemed to disappear as well.

Quan Zhilong covered his ears with his hands, lowered his head, his eyes unfocused, and stared blankly at the quilt.

Are you sad? I don’t think I’m too sad.

When he heard the news that she was unconscious, Quan Zhilong seemed to hear a voice in his heart saying: Ah...it's as expected.

It was as if this result had been demonstrated countless times in my mind in advance.

Ever since he learned that Xu Yisong was sick, Quan Zhilong couldn't sleep for a long time.

During that time, he would often wake up in the middle of the night for no apparent reason. In his dreams, he had experienced all kinds of terrible outcomes countless times. He either saw it with his own eyes or heard from others that something had happened to her.

Over and over again, countless nights.

Different time, different place, the only thing in common is that it is a nightmare.

Whenever he had such a dream, Quan Zhilong would always carefully check whether the people around him were safe. And at such times, only by clearly sensing her heartbeat and breathing could he calm his troubled heart.

Xu Yisong has been suffering from physical pain, while Quan Zhilong has been suffering from mental torment.

Before the performance in Bangkok, because of such a nightmare, even though Quan Zhilong knew that Xu Yisong's health was not suitable for long-distance travel, he still couldn't help but ask her to accompany him on tour.

He was really scared, afraid that she would fall down where he couldn't see her.

He had expected Xu Yisong to refuse to go with him before the trip to North America. Therefore, he was not too surprised when the thing he had been worried about came to his ears.

He was just not surprised, but that was just not surprising. Even though he had expected it, he still couldn't accept it.

Today, Li Jingwen prepared himself mentally before answering the phone, because he was afraid that Quan Zhilong would be frightened by the news. But Quan Zhilong himself actually felt okay, he just didn't expect Xu Yisong to be attacked and hurt.

He comforted himself in this way, but why did he still feel uncomfortable?

All the emotions are like a tangled ball of wool, twisted together in a mess. I want to sort it out but I can’t find the beginning, and I become more and more upset.

Quan Zhilong bent down and buried his whole body in the quilt.

He did not feel the worry and panic he had expected. He just felt as if there was a hole in his heart, and his whole body was cold even though it was midsummer.

The dull pain in his heart made it difficult for him to breathe.

It was like being trapped in a vacuum glass cover. I couldn't speak or hear any sound.

I was obviously very sad but I couldn't cry.

After a long time, Quan Zhilong finally moved, but he did not pick up the dropped phone. Instead, he got out of bed and took out his bag.

The backpack he carried with him was just a fashion item. There was nothing in the bag, except for some documents, most of which were things Xu Yisong gave him.

There are always some small pendants hanging on the edge of his bag, and now it is the little otter that Xu Yisong bought in the gift shop in Bangkok last time. Xu Yisong is really keen on putting all kinds of such small things around him, and he never gets tired of it.

Quan Zhilong touched the soft little otter and squeezed it gently, and subconsciously a soft smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but when he thought of Xu Yisong, that smile gradually turned bitter.

He blinked and took a few deep breaths to calm himself before unzipping his pants.

The largest thing in the bag was a glass jar of candy that was slightly larger than the palm of a hand.

This glass jar was one of the gifts Xu Yisong gave him on his first birthday. The "first aid candy" in it had been eaten up long ago and had been replaced several times. Now there was only one left.

He actually didn't like sweets that much, but these candies that were imbued with longing were always consumed quickly.

There was no way he could help but miss her all the time. This glass jar became the thing he carried with him most often.

Whenever the candy in the jar was almost gone, Xu Yisong would always replace it with new ones before the jar was empty.

Sometimes it’s chocolate, sometimes it’s exquisitely packaged fruit candies, and sometimes there are some candies with strange flavors... just like opening a blind box.

Quan Zhilong opened the last candy in the jar and put it into his mouth. The moment the candy entered his mouth, the sour taste exploded on the tip of his tongue. It was so sour that he couldn't help but frown, and his eyes became moist.

"The fruit candy this time is too sour. I'll ask her to change it to something sweeter next time."

I don't know if it was because the sugar was too sour, or because his heart was sour. Feeling the taste of the sugar melting in his mouth with a hint of fruit aroma, Quan Zhilong finally cried while holding the glass jar.

In fact, when the sour taste of sugar disappears at the end, it will turn sweet, but today's sugar tasted bitter to him at the end.

Bitter and astringent.

"You said that when the candies inside are eaten up, I can exchange them for a wish. Every wish I made in the past has come true, so this time will be possible too, right?" Kwon Ji-yong asked softly to the glass jar.

Unfortunately, the only answer he got was the sound of his own breathing.

The person who was supposed to give him the answer couldn't hear him and couldn't answer.

Quan Zhilong's body, which was originally supporting the table, gradually lost strength and finally squatted on the ground. His body couldn't help but tremble, and the suppressed pain had nowhere to vent and could only flow out in tears.

Xu Yisong, you promised me.

You will do it, right?

He asked this unanswered question over and over in his mind.

On the clenched hands, the two rings next to each other on the knuckles of the fingers were hurting the palms because the fists were clenched too tightly.

One was a New Year gift from Xu Yisong in China, and the other was the pair of rings he used when proposing. The other ring was now quietly worn on Xu Yisong's left hand.

At this moment, he couldn't appear beside her immediately. It seemed that only in this way could he try to get close to her soul.

He has another performance tomorrow, but there is no way Quan Zhilong will be able to sleep that night.

Li Jingwen had already hung up the phone silently when the screen on his phone was shaking. He couldn't see what was happening on the other end of the line, but he could guess that Quan Zhilong was probably not feeling any better than them.

Perhaps his previous thoughts were too harsh, but now he felt that it would be better for everyone to be more selfish as he thought.

At least I'll feel better.

Li Jingwen didn't have to work the night shift today, but he spent the whole night sitting on a bench in the hospital corridor during his rare rest time.
