After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 418 - 416: Holding a Grudge

But he didn’t say anything, he just gently held her small hand and tenderly hugged her.

"Zhao Xi, I’m awake now, you can go deal with other things first," Song Sinian said indifferently as he glanced at him, giving him a simple instruction.

Having worked with him for so long, Zhao Xi naturally understood Song Sinian’s intent.

Their master wanted to handle matters between him and Lu Zhaozhao alone, without the involvement of a third person.

He nodded at the two of them, "If there’s anything, sir, you can have madam call me, I’ll be at the hospital."

"Mm, I understand."

A moment later, Zhao Xi left the sickroom.

For a time, only Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian were left in the sickroom. The room suddenly fell quiet, as if even the sound of their breathing could be distinctly heard in the silent room.

Song Sinian quietly patted the person in his arms, not rushing to say anything.

He could clearly feel how Lu Zhaozhao’s body stiffened immensely while hugging him.

It seemed his injury had shaken her.

He had thought that the arrival of the Xia Family would settle her emotions, but now it seemed that although they had come, their impact was debatable.

Song Sinian patted Lu Zhaozhao and said, "I’m really fine, don’t worry."

But Lu Zhaozhao seemed completely incapable of hearing him, continuing to hold on to him tightly.

Song Sinian was somewhat at a loss. He lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead, then the corner of her eye, and finally her nose tip...

Watching the person in his arms being forced to look up, Song Sinian then cradled her small face, looking at her seriously, "Are you so anxious because, in the previous life, I was poisoned to death by someone?"

Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes immediately reddened, and she nodded, then shook her head.

Seeing that Lu Zhaozhao could still communicate, Song Sinian decided to continue guiding her to speak.

Previously, he always felt that if Lu Zhaozhao did not want to talk, then he would wait until she wanted to talk, but he never imagined that his death in the previous life would deeply trouble Lu Zhaozhao.

Even an unexpected injury could cause her emotional upheaval.

Song Sinian had never felt as strongly as he did at this moment, the intense love Lu Zhaozhao had for him.

She loved him deeply, just as much as he loved her. He could not let her continue like this.

His wife should always have a smile, full of happiness and brightness, not curled up in his arms trembling with fear like now.

Song Sinian’s large hand gently stroked Lu Zhaozhao’s back, coaxing her, "Zhaozhao, can you tell me about my fate in the previous life?"

Tears fell heavily from Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes, her small mouth pursed, she remained silent.

Song Sinian’s death had always been an inescapable nightmare for her.

She could handle parting in life, but not in death.

She even wished that even if Song Sinian didn’t love her, as long as he was alive and healthy, that would be enough.

Especially when she thought about the last life, it was very possible that Song Sinian had been assassinated, and her heart felt even more distressed.

Her small hand clenched tightly, her nails even scratching her palm, but she still showed no intention of letting go.

Her body stiffened again, and she curled up in Song Sinian’s arms, even trembling slightly.

"Zhaozhao, calm down and listen to me," Song Sinian immediately held Lu Zhaozhao tightly in his arms, his voice gentle and low, softly reaching her ear.

His tone was extremely soothing, making one feel at ease upon hearing it.

"You only have to tell me what happened last time for me to actively avoid it, right? The more you don’t want it to happen, the more you need to tell me about it, right?" Song Sinian patiently explained to Lu Zhaozhao.

Lu Zhaozhao was also a bit hesitant; she looked up at Song Sinian with some uncertainty, seemingly hesitating.

Song Sinian was not in a hurry, just gently kissing her again above her eyes, "Trust me, our goal is the same. I won’t let anything happen to myself, because I want to be with you for a long, long time."

His patient and gentle voice eased Lu Zhaozhao’s emotions significantly.

She hesitated for a moment and finally spoke, "In the last life, your diagnosis was multi-organ failure, and you didn’t even last a day in the hospital before you were declared dead."

Her small hand gripped Song Sinian’s collar tightly, forcing herself to calm down, her voice trembling slightly as she continued, "Xiao Jinglan told me that it was me who killed you, that you already had severe depression. It was because of my indifference that you reached a breaking point."

"He was lying; even if you were indifferent to me, I would trust leaving you alone in this world," Song Sinian raised his hand to smooth Lu Zhaozhao’s hair gently.

"Xiao Jinglan said that merely to torment and destroy."

Regardless of whether Lu Zhaozhao was telling the truth now, he would help her see it through.

Lu Zhaozhao had always been taboo about his death.

If Lu Zhaozhao kept thinking that she was responsible for his death in his previous life, she might be trapped in this twisted logic for the rest of her life.

Lu Zhaozhao bit her lip with some uncertainty, "But your condition was indeed not good..."

"Compared to dying from depression, I think the possibility of being poisoned by Xiao Jinglan is higher," Song Sinian paused slightly, "I remember you said before that Xiao Jinglan almost controlled the entire Song Mansion at that time, so there were many opportunities for her to poison me, not necessarily just in cubilose."

"..."

Lu Zhaozhao did not speak or object, seemingly pondering the words of Song Sinian seriously.

Song Sinian continued, "You should still remember the incident when Grandfather was injured on the mountain, right?"

Lu Zhaozhao nodded.

She certainly remembered that incident.

Xiao Jinglan and others had placed drugs in Old Master Song’s water cup, which caused him to faint on the mountain.

Had it not been for Song Sinian arranging a medical team to accompany him, she might have worried about Old Master Song experiencing the same issue again.

Seeing that Lu Zhaozhao was gradually accepting what he just said, Song Sinian pressed on, "After the incident with Grandfather, I investigated the spies Xiao Jinglan had placed in the Song Mansion. Nearly half of them had been replaced by her people. She hadn’t even fully controlled the Song Mansion yet and could already harm Grandfather. If she gained control over the Song Mansion, do you think she would spare me?"

Lu Zhaozhao shook her head, "Absolutely not."

Xiao Jinglan was very greedy; if she truly controlled the Song Mansion, she would definitely not miss any chance to kill Song Sinian!
