For the first time in his life he realized that he hasn't been a good father toward his one and only daughter. Top 1 richest tycoon in the Capital wasn't able to treat his own daughter with care. It's laughable! That title simply become a joke to him. Remembering that video sent by his subordinate earlier make him loathe himself.
To think that the woman he chose to be his daughter future mother, the one he thought would be a warm and loving mother figure to his daughter turned out to be a vicious vipers that dared to not only drug him but also poisoned his daughter along the way.
That rotten person spiked his drink secretly and his daughter found out by accident. His daughter, Lu Xueyun asked for the drink from that vipers and when she dropped her guard down, Little Snow swapped her drink with the cup he was supposed to be his.
Guilt stabbed his heart as he watched his daughter took a cup of disgusting drink in his stead. Based on that video alone he could tell that this daughter of his is very perceptive, he didn't notice this side of her before or more like he didn't pay close attention to her.
Aside from the drink, Little Snow ate a homemade cookies baked by that woman which confirm his hunch that the poison was from the cookies. Because Little Snow didn't immediately ate the cookies. She stared at them as if contemplating either to eat them or not which she did when the woman urged her to have a bite.
Suddenly, a thought swept across his chest, the unpleasant one. How many times did Xueyun done this? Does she knew from the very beginning that that woman wasn't a decent woman? What else she had gone through? Lu Hongxuan whipped his cellphone from his pocket and called someone to investigate his daughter course of act as detailed as possible.
His intuition told him that things wasn't as simple as he think.
.....
'Who is it? Who are you calling for? Why do you sounded very sad? Do you feel lonely?'
Lu Xueyun keeps hearing someone called her name and sometimes she could feel a gentle patting on her head. A far and lonely voice kept calling her name. Intrigued by the familiar lonely voice, she search for it's source until she found a strong light blinding her sight.
She grunted in discomfort. Trying hard to block the sudden intrusion with her hand but couldn't because her hands wouldn't budge a bit. Getting frustrated, she tried again and again yet she still failed. On the tenth attempt, she only managed to move her small pinky.
She grumbled showing her dissatisfaction. Right then, she heard the door opened followed by a heavy steps. Turning her head to the side, she caught a glimpse of a tall silhouette which she's very familiar with. "Da.. ddy.." she uttered faintly almost whispering.
Lu Hongxuan was surprised. He immediately ordered someone to call the doctor as he approached his daughter. "How do you feel? Does it hurt anywhere?" he asked worriedly. Reaching for his daughter hand gently rubbing them like a precious gems.
Tears started to form in the corner of her eyes. Her father was a proud man, he never showed his weak sides to others yet right now he looked most vulnerable. Seeing the tears on his daughter cheeks make him worried even more. "Where is the doctor?" he spat out impatiently.
He reached for the water nearby and help her daughter drink. He knows she'll be needing that after being unconscious for a month. After that, the doctor rushed inside the room and checking her welfare asking her a few question and stuff. (I am not a doctor so I don't know)
The doctor and Lu Hongxuan went outside for a moment to discuss her daughter condition before he went back inside the room. "How do you feel?" he repeated what he asked earlier looking at his daughter face gently. "I can't move my body." she answered truthfully.
"It's normal, you have been sleeping for a long time after all." he told her patiently. In the past month, he had been watching his daughter antic behind the monitor and he instantly knew that this daughter of his was different from others children. Never knew that he would understand her after a grave incident that almost robbed her life.
The little girl that he watched were an intelligent child. A girl worthy of the Lu surname. Unlike what people describe of her, she's a true gem. A treasure that everyone wished they had. A rare talent.
"Sleep more. Your body is still weak." he uttered whilst rubbing her head gently. "I'm scared." she murmured softly looking at her father with complicated feelings. "Don't be scared. Daddy's here. No one would ever hurt you again. I promise." That simple words lulled the young lady to sleep as she's still tired.
A week after that, Lu Xueyun finally able to leave the hospital. Ever since that day, Lu Hongxuan kept her close nearby. He even moved her into his room as she would sometimes scream in the middle of the night because of a dream.
When he went to work, he left his most trusted man by her side. Guarding her tightly and of course their skill in fighting were unbeatable.
