Chapter 604 Wait For Me, Lu Qiang...
\"Mrs. Lu is missing,\" the nurse informed.
\"What?\" Lu Feng and Jiang Yang both exclaimed.
They ran back to her room and her patient's bed was empty.
\"Where were you?\" Jiang Yang asked the nurse.
\"I went to get water and when I came back, she was not here. She is not even in the washroom,\" the nurse replied.
Just then two nurses came there. \"She is not anywhere, we searched the entire floor,\" one nurse said and it scared Lu Feng and Jiang Yang. San Zemin's guards were sent back except for the two who were guarding the entry of the floor.
\"She is injured and weak, so it's impossible for her to go far. She must be here somewhere,\" Jiang Yang spoke.
Both friends thought where she could be and why would she disappear suddenly?
\"Check the security cameras,\" Lu Feng suggested and both ran towards the security control room. They checked the video footage where it showed Jiang Yuyan came out of the room. She was forcing herself to walk with the support of walls, holding her head in between as she must have felt pain and entered the elevator. Once the door closed, the elevator showed the arrow pointing up which showed she was going to the floors upstairs.
Just this much was enough for Lu Feng to understand her and he immediately ran out of that room. Realizing it, Jiang Yang followed Lu Feng, but he was faster. Entering the elevator, Lu Feng pressed the button for the top floor.
Till Jiang Yang reached the door of the elevator was closed, so he went by stairs, not having the patience to wait for the elevator to come as both elevators were busy.
Lu Feng reached the top floor and, getting out of the lift, he ran towards the stairs which led its way to the rooftop. Jiang Yang was just one floor away from him when he saw Lu Feng running towards the rooftop. The thing that scared Lu Feng, Jiang Yang had the same thing in his mind. Gathering all the energy, Jiang Yang started to climb the stairs as fast as he could.
Pushing the door of the rooftop, Lu Feng witnessed something that stopped his heart from beating.
Jiang Yuyan was standing on the parapet wall of the rooftop. Her eyes closed, she was ready to jump.
----------
When the nurse in the Jiang Yuyan's room went out to get water for herself, Jiang Yuyan was awake. For the past few days, she had been observing the schedule of the attendant nurse, when she went out of the room and how much time it took her to come back.
Out of all, the most time she spent out was whenever she went to get water. The nurse must have spent her time talking to others, or the place of the water filter must be far away.
Every time the late night when the nurse went out and it was the silence around, Jiang Yuyan tried to get up to check her own strength, but every time it was not enough. Jiang Yuyan was waiting for the time being when she will get enough strength to walk properly.
That night, when the nurse went out to get the water, Jiang Yuyan stepped out of the bed. This time she was confident that she could make it as the previous two nights she could make it to the door easily.
Her head spinning and hurting a bit because of suddenly getting up from the bed. Taking a deep breath, she stepped towards the door and checked if someone was standing in the corridor and as expected no one was there.
Previous two nights she checked if the guards appointed were there and she noticed they were not so without wasting a moment, she stepped out and stepped towards the elevator, walking as fast as she could, in between taking the support of the walls while being careful if someone was there.
They blocked the entire floor with few hospital staff members and two guards from San Zemin. Even the family members were not there as they had been instructed to go home, only allowing them to visit the patients in the daytime.
Jiang Yuyan finally made it into the elevator and stepped out at the top floor, which had stairs that opened at the rooftop. It took her time to climb those stairs while holding the railing and dragging herself somehow to make it the rooftop.
She finally made it, breathing heavily while holding her chest and standing with the support of the wall beside the door at the end of the staircase which opened into the rooftop of the hospital building.
Staring at the two-and-a-half feet tall parapet wall of the rooftop, she slowly stepped towards it. With each step closer to the parapet wall, the memories with Lu Qiang flashed in front of her eyes one by one. Tears rolling down from her eyes, a painful smile on her lips which showed she was happy to remember those precious moments but at the same time, it hurt her.
Jiang Yuyan stood up on the parapet wall and looked at the sky in front of her. Closing her eyes and taking a deep breath of that pleasant and cool breeze, she was ready to jump, the words left her mouth- \"Wait for me Lu Qiang.\"
-----
Getting out of the shock, Lu Feng ran towards her and pulled her back with force by holding her one hand and caught her in his arms. He hugged her tightly and started to cry.
The shock of losing her made him speechless and cry like a kid while Jiang Yuyan was standing motionless with her teary eyes closed. She was standing with his support as her legs gave up completely and he was holding her tightly to not let her fall down.
Jiang Yang reached the rooftop, catching his breath. Seeing Jiang Yuyan safe, he gave out a sigh of relief and kneeled down helplessly, a continuous flow of tears making its way out.
