God of Racing

Chapter 819: Chapter 807

Giving up, he tossed the phone aside.

Le Zhengsheng started the car and hurried back to the villa.

On the way, the rain grew heavier. The wipers kept sweeping, and Le Zhengsheng recalled that time in the heavy rain when Gu Xiaoning wrapped him up in a blanket...

"Tch." Le Zhengsheng laughed, so defiant!

If he had never met Yu Sangwan, if he had first met Gu Xiaoning, if his passion for love had not been consumed, if he was still the healthy Le Zheng young master, if...

But unfortunately... there are no ifs.

Chapter 507: As If Nothing Happened That Day

Returning to the villa, Le Zhengsheng threw off his coat and was about to run a bath.

The landline kept ringing insistently. He stepped out of the bathroom in a hurry and picked it up.

"Hello." An anxious voice inside, "Excuse me, are you Lu Qingming’s guardian?"

Upon hearing this, Le Zhengsheng became immediately tense, "Yes! What’s wrong with Qingming?"

"I’m sorry!" The person apologized repeatedly, "I’ve been trying to call your mobile, but... your phone was always off. Thankfully, you’ve returned!"

"What on earth happened!"

Le Zhengsheng interrupted her sternly, "Don’t talk nonsense! What’s wrong with Qingming?"

"Here’s the situation..." On the other end was Little Bun’s teacher, "In the afternoon, Lu Qingming accidentally ate a poisonous plant during outdoor activities... now..."

"What?"

Le Zhengsheng jumped up, Little Bun!

"Where is he? Where is he now?"

"He has already been sent to the hospital! Sir, there’s no danger to his life..."

"Nonsense!" Le Zhengsheng’s eyes widened in fury, his teeth clenched, "How could you care for the children like this? How old is he? He doesn’t understand, don’t you understand either? In this matter, I reserve the right to pursue responsibility on the school’s part! Take good care of him, I’m coming over immediately!"

He hung up the phone and hurried out of the villa.

Getting into the car, he slammed the steering wheel hard!

What had he done? Because of loneliness and boredom, he went to Gu Xiaoning’s house?

And what happened then? His phone had no battery, he wasn’t at the villa, and even when Little Bun got into trouble, the teacher couldn’t reach him!

Little Bun... he watched from birth and always grew up together!

Other than not calling him "Dad," was there really any difference between them?

But today, what did he, this father, do? Went out on a date with a woman, leaving the child alone to suffer in the hospital!

"Bastard!"

Le Zhengsheng couldn’t help but curse himself, "Le Zhengsheng, you’re such a mess!"

Immense guilt, immense worry.

He stepped on the accelerator, pushing the car to its maximum speed.

...

Driving fast, he rushed to the hospital where Little Bun was.

The little guy had his stomach pumped and was lying on a small bed in the observation room.

The observation room conditions were poor—many crammed in together, parents and children, cries everywhere.

As soon as Le Zhengsheng entered, his heart clenched tightly. This is his child! His child, how could he be in such a harsh environment? Lu Qingming, the biological son of President Guan Chao Helian, how could he be subjected to such injustice?

Quickening his pace, accompanied by the teacher, Le Zhengsheng saw Little Bun.

The originally lively little guy had a pale little face, damp eyelashes, and slept.

Feeling so distressed, Le Zhengsheng turned to the teacher, "Please, we need to transfer to a VIP ward."

Of course, there were VIP wards, but the fees were too high, usually unable to afford.

The teacher recognized Lu Qingming’s unusual family background, nodding repeatedly, "Alright, we’ll handle it right away."

Le Zhengsheng bent over and reached out to pick up Little Bun.

Little Bun recognized Le Zhengsheng’s scent, and with his eyes closed, automatically snuggled into his arms, the chubby cheeks resting on his shoulder, drooling.

Feeling weak, his sleep was restless, a slit of his eyes opened, "Ah Sheng, is that you?"

"Yes." Le Zhengsheng supported his little body, "Sorry, I’m late."

Little Bun drooped his head, "Ah Sheng, I’m sorry... I scared you."

Feeling warm at heart, Le Zhengsheng pretended to be stern, "You better remember, don’t do this in the future! How can you put anything in your mouth carelessly? Look, if your mom finds out, wouldn’t she cry herself to death?"

"Mm."

Little Bun regretted immensely, "I know, it was my fault, I’ll never dare again."

Le Zhengsheng rubbed the little guy’s head, "Let’s go, it’s too noisy here, we won’t sleep here... why not tell the teacher? We don’t need to stay in such a place."

Little Bun shook his head, "Mom said, children shouldn’t flaunt wealth."

"Ha." Le Zhengsheng laughed, "What a good kid."

Settling in the VIP ward turned conditions much better.

Little Bun lay on the comfortable, soft bed and slept soundly.

Le Zhengsheng, heart still fearful, dared not leave his side.

His phone was now charged, and as Le Zhengsheng glanced at the screen... it was somewhat glaring.

His phone’s wallpaper was still a picture of Yu Sangwan, him, and Little Bun together... Le Zhengsheng raised his hand, gently caressing the faces of Yu Sangwan and Little Bun above, feeling blocked in heart. For so many years, they, mother and son, had been his motivation to live.

This consciousness had already dug deep roots.

"Wanwan..."

Le Zhengsheng sighed softly, "I love you so much, how could I love someone else again?"

He raised his hand, covered his eyes... his fingers felt slightly damp.

The dawn broke.

Little Bun seemed much better, and Le Zhengsheng held a bowl, feeding him porridge.

"Mm, want to eat candy, and ice cream."

Le Zhengsheng maintained a stern face, "There’s grass to eat! And the poisonous kind, isn’t it delicious! Eat it, and you’ll become an immortal!"

"..." Little Bun stuck his tongue out, "Ah Sheng is so scary."

Stayed in the hospital for several consecutive days because Le Zhengsheng insisted; Little Bun’s body had to be fully nourished before being discharged.

Returning took a few days.

During these days, Le Zhengsheng hadn’t contacted Gu Xiaoning.

Things with her seemed to have been set aside.

At night, after Little Bun lay down.

Le Zhengsheng’s phone rang, flashing... Gu Xiaoning.

Le Zhengsheng frowned, hesitated for a long time, and picked it up, "Hello."

"Ah Sheng." Gu Xiaoning’s voice seemed like they hadn’t connected for a while.

Le Zhengsheng held the phone, his Adam’s apple moving unconsciously, "Mm, is there something?"

"Um..." Gu Xiaoning sounded hesitant, "Are you free tomorrow? Can you come to my place? Or, the hospital is fine?"

Le Zhengsheng frowned, raising his hand to rub his brow point, "Gu Xiaoning..."

"Hm?" Gu Xiaoning paused slightly.

"I think..." Le Zhengsheng hesitated and said, "There are some things, we have misunderstandings between us."

"..." Gu Xiaoning fell silent immediately.

"Are you there?" Le Zhengsheng asked, puzzled.

"I am, I’m here." Gu Xiaoning laughed lightly, "Go ahead, I’m listening."

Le Zhengsheng made up his mind, simply saying everything, "You know, I have someone I like... even though she doesn’t reciprocate, but that doesn’t affect my personal emotions. Helping you was just because you had it tough, without other implications... that kiss —let’s act like it didn’t happen, okay?"

"..."

On Gu Xiaoning’s end, silence lasted long.

Long enough that Le Zhengsheng thought she had hung up.

"Ningning?" Le Zhengsheng tried to speak.

"Mm, I understand."

Gu Xiaoning’s voice revealed no change, just the phone’s slight ’click’ sound.

Le Zhengsheng looked at the phone, the call disconnected.

Suddenly, his heart... felt empty.
