The Best Actor's Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! Chapter 237 Something Wrong with Her Eyes

Murong Ye and Gong Yu noticed that there was something wrong with Murong Yunxi. She was staring straight at the ceiling, her eyes fixed without blinking.

They suddenly panicked. Gong Yu stretched out one big hand and shook it gently in front of Murong Yunxi's eyes. There was no reaction in them.

Murong Ye also noticed that Murong Yunxi's black eyes, which used to be bright and clean, seemed to be missing something. Murong Yunxi's eyes used to contain a vivid light, yet now they were empty and lifeless.

"Xiao Xi." Gong Yu tentatively called her name while nervously looking at Murong Yunxi and waiting for a response.

"Gong Yu? You're not asleep. I thought you were asleep. I didn't dare to move around for fear of waking you up."

Murong Yunxi's voice was very light. It sounded a little bit hoarse because of the fever.

Although an ominous feeling struck Gong Yu, he still pretended to be calm. "Would you like to drink some water to moisten your dry throat?"

"Well, I'm a little thirsty."

"Then I'll pour some water for you."

Gong Yu stood up and went to get some water while constantly looking back at Murong Yunxi.

"Why don't you turn on the light? Be careful so that you don't fall."

Suddenly, as if thunder was rumbling in their minds, Gong Yu and Murong Ye stared at each other, speechless with shock.

"Gong Yu, can't you turn on the lamp?"

Murong Yunxi sat up and reached out for the lamp as she spoke.

A sudden dizziness overcame her when she tried to get up. She felt pain and instantly felt weaker all over her body.

There was a faint flush on her cheeks. However, she and Gong Yu had indulged themselves lately, so she didn't really think too much of it.

Murong Ye, who seemed to notice that Murong Yunxi was a little uncomfortable, asked anxiously, "Xiao Xi, how are you feeling?"

"Ah? Brother, you are here too?" Murong Yunxi was surprised that Murong Ye was also present. She sensed that something was wrong, yet she still felt dizzy and unable to understand what was happening.

"Well, you were sick. You have a fever."

"Oh? I have a fever? That's why I feel weak and my whole body aches so much. Why don't you turn on the lights? Are you worried that the lights may disrupt my sleep? I'm fine. Turn them on."

Gong Yu returned to Murong Yunxi's bed with a cup of water. He hesitated before saying, "Xiao Xi, your eyes seem to be..."

Gong Yu stuttered. He could say nothing more. He still hadn't gotten over the shock of this sudden change, so he wasn't ready to tell her.

Gong Yu turned to Murong Ye for help. Murong Ye, who looked worried, couldn't say a word either.

"Xiao Xi, there's something wrong with your eyes."

Murong Ye gritted his teeth and blurted this out at once with his eyes closed.

Murong Yunxi's brain stopped for a moment before she started to think quickly. Now, she finally knew what was wrong.

She didn't know how to deal with this news or how to accept it.

Gong Yu approached the cup to Murong Yunxi's lips and said softly, "Xiao Xi, drink some water first. Don't worry too much. Maybe the blindness was caused by the fever and it won't last long. We will call the doctor to check on you later."

Murong Yunxi drank some water from the cup handed over by Gong Yu and forced a smile. "Well, you're the boss."

"Then I will call the doctor."

Murong Ye turned around quickly and rushed out of the door. When he closed the door, he lost control of his emotions. He sat down on the floor against the wall and sobbed in silence. He covered up his mouth in case Murong Yunxi heard him. Tears were running down his cheeks as his lips trembled in sorrow.

Ever since attending school, Murong Ye had almost never cried. However, at the moment, he could not suppress his emotions. After all, he knew that even if the doctor came, he wouldn't fix anything. Doctors couldn't give a logical explanation. They had already announced that the patient's reaction to the medicine was still unknown, and they couldn't control the effects of the medicine. Murong Yunxi's situation was completely uncertain.

While Murong Ye vented off his feelings, it became much more painful for Gong Yu to stay in the room.

Gong Yu looked at Murong Yunxi's fake smile and felt even more upset. He would prefer to see Murong Yunxi get all these emotions out. Even if she cried loudly, it would be much better than pretending that everything was fine.

Gong Yu put down the cup and helped Murong Yunxi lie down. He touched her hair and said, "Xiao Xi, if you have any trouble or feel any discomfort, you can vent. Don't bottle your feelings up inside."

To reassure Gong Yu, Murong Yunxi gave him a sweet smile. "Well, I'm really okay! You guys don't need to feel sorry. I believe I'll be fine. God wouldn't be so cruel to me."

"Of course, you will have a happy future. God would never do this to you."

"You'll be fine!" Gong Yu kept repeating these words in his mind over and over again. It seemed that this was the only way his dream would come true and he wouldn't feel so disturbed.

Murong Yunxi closed her eyes gently. Her calm expression made one unable to figure out what was on her mind. "I'll sleep for a while."

Then, Murong Yunxi turned over and burrowed into the quilt.

Gong Yu looked at Murong Yunxi. His heart ached as if it had fallen into a bush covered with thorns or it was being pinched by a big hand. The air in his heart dried up and the thorns pricked into his flesh. The acute pain he felt almost suffocated him.

Gong Yu noticed everything about Murong Yunxi. Thus, he knew that she was as upset as he was now. Her pain was no less than his or Murong Ye's pain.

The following evening, it was morning in China.

Murong Ye, Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu's plane landed directly on the parking lot of the Murong family.

Because of Murong Yunxi's accident, Murong Ye had chosen to return home early. He had to find a way to cure Murong Yunxi. He had pinned his last hope on Xu Qianru, the God of traditional Chinese medicine.

Gong Yu got off the plane, holding Murong Yunxi in his arms. Meanwhile, Murong Ye walked beside them. The whole scene looked sad.

When they arrived at the gate of the villa, Murong Qingtian came out to meet them in person.

Murong Qingtian stepped forward and asked with concern, "How is she?"

Murong Ye shook his head slightly, looking sad and helpless.

Morong Qingtian's face suddenly grew gloomy before he waved his hand. Gong Yu, who was holding Murong Yunxi in arms, headed back to their room first.

Murong Ye sat on the sofa in the hall. He knew that Murong Qingtian would have some questions.

Murong Qingtian sat down near Murong Ye and asked him what he wanted directly. "Tell me. What happened?"

"I was informed that they would target Xiao Xi on this trip to the United States. I wanted to gather evidence about their crime, but they did it secretly and left no trace behind."

"How do you know that it was the Second and Fourth?"

"You still don't believe me?"

"There's no evidence. How can you convince me?"

"What about Xiao Xi?"

"That doesn't mean the Second and Fourth did it!"

"The Second and Fourth Uncle resent you for making all the decisions. They were just compelled by the situation and dared not say anything. They couldn't lay a finger on me because of the measures I adopted when I took office. However, Xiao Xi is different. Before I could help her establish herself, they plotted against me and ruined my plan."

"Xiao Ye, I always believe in you and every decision you make. However, I can't be convinced just by your words. The same mother gave birth to us. We have been brothers for so many years!"

"But I'm your son, and Xiao Xi is your daughter."

Murong Qingtian touched his forehead with both hands. In fact, he did trust Murong Ye. He was just reluctant to admit that his own brother was trying to hurt his daughter. How could he believe that?

Upon looking at Murong Qingtian, Murong Ye did not want to discuss this problem with him anymore. Thus, he changed the subject.

"Father, you need to contact Mister Xu Qianru now and let him check on Xiao Xi."

"Your uncle Xu has retired. It's not easy to hire him back."

"Uncle Xu is our last hope. I really can't think of any other way. Uncle Xu is an experienced doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. He's actually a miracle-working doctor. He might think of some other ways to treat Xiao Xi. We can't let Xiao Xi live like this forever, can we?"

"Well, I'll visit him in person tomorrow."

By the time Murong Ye returned to his room, he was still deeply troubled. He could understand his father's feelings. After all, this concerned his own brothers. However, the fact that he understood did not mean that he agreed with his father. His own father did not believe in him, which broke Murong Ye's heart a little bit.

He was trapped in his own thoughts, when the timely ring of his cell phone woke him up.

"Hello?" Murong Ye answered the phone in low spirits.

"What's wrong with you, big brother?" Murong Xu had sensed something unusual about Murong Ye. He had always been cool and calm, so this side of Murong Ye had slightly surprised Murong Xu. Murong Ye had never lost his temper. Ever since Murong Yunxi had joined the family, he had lost it over and over again and become more sentimental.

"What's the matter?" Although Murong Ye was upset now, this did not mean that he could share his emotions with other people.

"I heard that you came back early?"

"The news have spread fast! Did your father tell you that?"

"No!" Murong Xu paused for a moment before saying, "Don't you know that my father and I reached a deadlock and I moved out?"

"Oh?" Murong Ye was surprised. Among so many children, Murong Xu had always been the best. He had studied psychology, and his temper had always been under control. He was a sensible son in his parents' eyes. He would never do something unacceptable. He had done nothing abnormal ever since his childhood. Now, however...

Murong Xu sighed softly. His voice was full of helplessness as he said, "Let's not talk about that. Can you help me?"

Murong Xu concentrated. He knew that if Murong Xu had turned to him for help, this had to be urgent. "What do I need to do?"
