Chapter 682 The Truth
For several days in a row, Lu Xixiao stayed close to Lu Jingyuan.
He will hug anyone he can.
It is not only Lu Jingyuan who needs to heal his inner trauma, but also himself. Lu Jingyuan cannot leave him, and he cannot leave Lu Jingyuan even more.
I originally thought that love and companionship could help Lu Jingyuan slowly recover, but after a few days, Lu Xixiao saw no results.
He accompanied Lu Jingyuan to watch cartoons, play with toys, draw, play games, read picture books, read stories to Lu Jingyuan, and even asked someone to buy two claw machines to play with Lu Jingyuan.
These were all things that Lu Jingyuan was interested in before, but now he has lost his desire to play and he won’t take the toys even if they are stuffed into his hands.
These past few days, apart from eating and sleeping, Lu Jingyuan just nestled quietly in his arms, without any movement throughout the day.
Since he was found, Lu Jingyuan hadn't spoken a single word, not even calling him "little grandpa." Lu Xixiao tried to get him to speak but failed, so he took him to the hospital again to check if his vocal cords were damaged.
The test results were good, yet bad.
The good thing is that Lu Jingyuan’s silence is not a physical problem.
The bad thing is, the problem is psychological.
Lu Xixiao followed Wen Li's advice and found the best psychologist in the world. Not to mention strangers, Lu Jingyuan didn't even let people who used to be around him get close to him. He developed a great resistance and vigilance towards everything, especially people. So far, apart from Lu Xixiao and General Hei, only Wen Li and Lu Wu, who spent the most time with him, could get close to him and have physical contact with him.
With no other choice, Wen Li temporarily studied medicine and took up the job urgently.
Lu Xixiao is naturally more suitable to be a psychologist than Wen Li, but Lu Jingyuan, who is afraid of getting lost again, cannot leave him for a moment. He is unable to do both, so he can only let Wen Li come.
I thought Wen Li would be able to be a psychologist.
But it still ended in failure.
Lu Jingyuan seemed to have closed his senses, not listening, not speaking, and not looking.
Lu Xixiao comforted himself to take it slow and not be impatient.
Lu Jingyuan's mental state has always been extremely tense. No matter whether he is awake or asleep, any slight movement will startle him. So in the past few days, the entire governor's mansion has remained silent at all times. Everyone talks in a low voice, the patrol team's soles are made of foam material to reduce the sound of footsteps, and vehicles are prohibited from passing.
A quiet environment would indeed make Lu Jingyuan feel better.
But when he was asleep, even without any external influence, Lu Jingyuan would still wake up frequently. His subconscious mind was unable to enter normal sleep. Every time he woke up, he would first make sure that General Hei was by his side, and then check around before continuing to try to fall asleep.
He couldn't sleep well at night and was afraid to sleep during the day. His body was always in a state of fatigue, and Lu Xixiao's condition could not recover.
The entire governor's mansion was quiet and a bit depressing.
That night, Heishui captured a man - a substitute for Captain Cal.
Lu Xixiao insisted that Qi Yu was manipulating everything behind the scenes, and firmly believed that it was Qi Yu who instructed or used Dick to ultimately harm Lu Jingyuan.
In order to prove Qi Yu's crime, he sent troops to attack Gali in anger, hoping to capture the substitute for the governor.
But there was no sign of a substitute.
Wen Li said that she wanted to see evidence and that she would investigate. Now that things had come to this point, she had to get to the bottom of it. If Qi Yu did it, she would have to give Lu Xixiao an explanation. If not, then Qi Yu would have to be cleared of all charges. So she had not stopped investigating during this period.
Now the truth is before our eyes.
The double, bound and tied, knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with the fear of impending death. He had already torn off Abel's mask, but his own face underneath was completely destroyed, even more severely damaged than Dick's.
He ruined it himself.
At that time, Lu Xixiao took Qi Yu to Country T to confirm whether Qi Yu was secretly colluding with Abel. He knew that Qi Yu's actions would be exposed. He certainly knew how cruel Qi Yu was. In order to protect himself and kill Abel and replace Abel, Qi Yu would definitely kill him, the substitute who knew the truth, and make it impossible for Lu Xixiao to find out.
So after leaving Country T, he calmed Qi Yu down through the phone while secretly packing up and running away. He tore off his mask, destroyed his face, and joined a mercenary team.
He didn't know whether Qi Yu had hired someone to silence him.
But within a few days, the Nanyang army reached the governor's mansion in California.
He secretly congratulated himself for running fast.
He hid himself in this way, and this trick of hiding himself in the dark made it easy for Lu Xixiao and Wen Li's people to find him.
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
Another reason why he did not leave Gali was that he could not let go of his great cause. He was still thinking about the position of Governor of Gali. He was waiting, waiting for Qi Yu's actions to be exposed, waiting for Qi Yu to die and no longer be able to control him. Maybe he could transform from a substitute into the real Lord.
But he didn't expect that he would be found even though he hid so well.
These people had never seen his true face, not to mention that his face was disfigured. How on earth did they find him? He couldn't figure it out.
"I know everything. I'll tell you everything as long as you spare my life." The stand-in knelt two steps forward and said to Wen Li anxiously, his eyes full of desire for life.
