    Chapter 47 Just like last time, tears fell from his eyes without warning…

    The day started off uneventfully in the morning.

    Tang Ruining came out of the bathroom to wash up. The water stains at the door made him stagger. His elbow hit the door frame, which hurt a little. He didn’t pay much attention. He held on to the door frame to steady himself and squatted down to wipe away the water.

    Li Hu was walking towards the bathroom. When he saw him, he almost fell over and asked him, “Did you hit somewhere?”

    “It’s just the arm, it’s fine.” Tang Ruining raised her hand to show him.

    Li Go grabbed his elbow and rubbed it for him, “Knead it open for you, otherwise it will become a big bruise later.”

    “These slippers are not slippery enough. Please buy them all again.” He said while rubbing them.

    “Okay.” Tang Ruining pecked him on the mouth.

    Today they are going to shoot an advertisement for their new endorsement, which is a bottled milk tea brand. After the shooting, they are going to have dinner. Tang Ruining has booked a restaurant nearly a month in advance, and the number of people it can accommodate every day is very limited.

    On the way to the filming location, we almost had an accident. An electric car ran a red light. The driver didn’t pay much attention and almost hit the car. He braked and made an emergency stop, waking up all the people in the car who were dozing.Although he did not encounter the electric car, the owner of the electric car was frightened. He made a sudden turn and lost his balance and fell to the ground. He could not get up for a long time.

    Their driver and assistant got out of the car and spent a long time chatting with the person who was sitting on the ground and refused to get up. They rushed to the filming location not to be delayed and not to make a big fuss. Even if the other person was responsible for running a red light, if word got out that the To5 car hit someone, they would still be scolded. It doesn’t make sense.The assistant transferred two hundred yuan to the other party, and the other party knew that he was not taking any responsibility. Although the young man took the money and left quickly, he walked as fast as flying when he got up.

    The driver returned to the car cursing and arrived at the filming location a little late. The group took the time to change clothes and put on makeup.

    The content of the ad is a relaxed everyday style, they are all dressed casually.Li Hu’s black hair was recolored after it grew out. It is still completely white now, but the two touches of blue are gone. The stylist styled his bangs, revealing a large forehead, and put on light makeup, making his face look delicate and fresh.

    The content of the advertisement is very simple. The first scene shows him sitting at a table in front of a coffee shop, looking at the empty coffee cup on the table and sighing, as if he has something on his mind.At this time, Tang Ruining came from behind and patted him on the shoulder, asking him to join the dinner party. Then a few people sat at the dinner table. Rong Xiao took out this brand of milk tea and shared it with everyone. They all chatted and laughed happily. Li Hu no longer looked worried as before, raised his cup and toasted to them, and read the advertisement again. It was a very straightforward plot.

    We shot the two of them first. Li Hu was sitting at the table. Tang Ruining walked up behind him and patted his shoulder. As soon as his hands touched his, the director called out.

    “Ruining, um, you don’t have to be so anxious, just walk over normally.”

    Li Hu couldn’t help but laugh, grabbed his hand on his shoulder and shook it.

    The camera crane passed over the two people’s heads, and the cameraman who operated it took the opportunity to go out and smoke a cigarette before returning. He was still arguing with people in the company that morning. He had a long-standing grudge and had a fierce argument. The other party told him to get out and go home after filming.He was so irritated that he wanted to give up now. At this time, the rocker arm was still a bit unresponsive. Perhaps it was not sensitive enough after being used for a long time. He pushed the entire machine forward a little, away from its original position.The director shouted for the second time, but he still hadn’t adjusted it well, but he didn’t tell the director.

    Tang Ruining walked over again and patted his shoulder.

    Li Huang raised his head and saw the man, and then smiled at him after being stunned.Originally, the director wanted to turn his head back, but the other person was leaning back on the chair and looking up at him. From Tang Ruining’s perspective, he looked like a cat.

    Tang Ruining resisted the urge to lower her head for a kiss and read her own line: “Want to eat? I’m treating you today.”

    “Okay.” Li Go stood up.

    The two walked back, and the camera crane following them tilted and hit the street light behind them.The street lights are simple temporary landscaping, unstable, European-style with a black metal frame on the outside, and heavy in weight.

    When the two heard a crash on their heads, they didn’t have time to realize what was happening. The sense of the impending crisis made Tang Ruining’s first reaction was to raise his hands to protect the person next to him, but Li Hu moved faster than him. He pushed hard to the side and Tang Ruining fell to the ground. At the same moment, the fallen street lamp hit him on the head.

    There was a moment of silence, and people rushed forward, shouting in panic, “Yilan!!”

    “Call an ambulance!”

    “Send him to the hospital directly! It’s faster!” someone shouted.

    The scene was chaotic, and no one noticed Tang Ruining being pushed away until they were pushed away forcefully.

    “Get out of the way…get out of the way!!”

    He roared until everyone was silent and made room for him. Tang Ruining knelt in front of him. Li Huo had lost consciousness and fell limply into Rong Xiao’s arms, with half of his face covered in blood.

    The metal on the edge cut open his skin, and the blood stained his white hair, which was even more dazzling.Tang Ruining didn’t realize that he hadn’t breathed for a long time and his eyes were frighteningly red.

    “Ruining, Ruining, calm down first. We’ll take Yilan to the hospital. He’ll be fine.” Rong Xiao kept saying to Tang Ruining, whose whole body was shaking, “I’ll take him there, can you follow me? It’ll be fine.”

    “I’ll send him there, I’ll send him there…” Tang Ruining said to himself. He held the person in his arms, but he was afraid that he would be hurt, so he moved quickly but extremely carefully.

    Yuan Zhiyan took off his coat and held his wound, his voice almost crying: “Brother Ruining, please hold it tighter.”

    Tang Ruining hugged him sideways and staggered a bit when he stood up, but immediately stabilized himself.Rong Xiao was also supporting him, and several people ran to the garage.

    Tang Ruining was holding the man in the back seat. He pressed his wound through his clothes and did not dare to use force.He stared at Li Hu’s face the whole time, fearing to miss the moment when he opened his eyes to look at him, but those eyes were always closed, and his eyelashes did not tremble.

    Tang Ruining leaned close to his ear and called his name softly: “Li Hu…”

    There was no response, Li Hu leaned in his arms meekly, breathing shallowly on his neck.Tang Ruining closed his eyes. He had never hated himself so much. Why didn’t he protect Li Huo faster? Why was he pushed away by Li Huan like this… Thinking about it further, why didn’t he pass the first time? Li Huan’s acting was fine. It was him who delayed the process and led to the second filming. It was all his fault, all his fault…

    The driver drove quickly to the hospital. The wound on Li Go’s head was stitched with several stitches. Fortunately, the lamp was not hung high and only the outer layer was made of metal, so it did not cause a serious disaster.But he is not awake yet and looks like he is sleeping deeply.

    Tang Ruining stood motionless in front of the hospital bed, her limbs numbing slowly.He raised his hands. There were still blood stains on them, but they were already dry. He slowly clenched his fists, but his hands had no strength. Just now, his body and nerves were too tense, almost exceeding the limit. Now when he relaxed, he felt like he was exhausted.

    “The doctor said there’s nothing serious, don’t worry.” Seeing that he was still unconscious, Rong Xiao comforted him, “You’ll wake up soon. It’s the same as last time. It’s just that the coma lasts longer, but the injury is not serious.”

    He clearly said reassuring words, but he found that after listening to Tang Ruining, he felt like a machine with the pause button pressed. His arms that were about to be lowered stopped in mid-air, his eyes were frozen without blinking, and his time seemed to have stopped.

    “Ruining?”

    “Same as last time.” Rong Xiao heard him repeat this sentence mechanically, and his embarrassed face instantly turned pale.He looked at himself, but seemed to be looking at nothing, a blank space.

    After an unknown amount of time, Tang Ruining slowly lowered his eyes. He saw the bruise on his arm. It was not dark in color. If Li Huo hadn’t rubbed it for him for so long in the morning, he didn’t know whether the bruise would have been heavier.

    Tears fell from his eyes without warning.
