Queen Of Hearts Is The CEO's, Mysterious Love. Chapter 2: Bottomless Void Inside Her

Weeks later, In the hospital's VIP room on the top floor.

Li Na had been unconscious over a few weeks. Under the supervision of the world's highly proficient neurosurgeon's team, still, there was no major improvement in her condition. She lay on a hospital bed like a lifeless body.

Meanwhile, inside the guest room of the top floor, the ambiance was extremely tense.

The Hospital's director, Head doctor and his team members showing the progress reports of Li Na's condition with no progress. The atmosphere was tensed because of the Lu Empire's King Lu Jianjun's expression were exceptionally freezing.

Sitting on the sofa, Lu Jianjun looked notably furious hearing the reports with the null progress which was expected to be improved. Under tremendous pressure, the head doctor sought to ease the situation.

Suddenly, Lu Jianjun stood up giving goosebumps to everyone as they watched him walk out of the door without a word.

On the left seat, Lu Jun-hui sighed heavily to see his brother leaving. "He doesn't appreciate hearkening to the repeating words and wasting time." Lu Jun-hui turned to chat with the doctor, flashing a smile. The team of men slackened.

Seeing them dejected, Lu Jun-hui felt bad and asked considerately. "You said she'll be awake by now. Then why there is no progress and she is still sleeping like a log?"

"Mr. Lu, we are doing our best. Li Na's brief loss of consciousness is because of oxygen deprivation to the brain, possibly caused due to the overreaction to a certain trigger or shock, and her traumatic brain injury is making it worse. Besides, she was addicted to drugs thus her body is hardly reciprocating to treatment."

"But we suspect soon she'll gain her consciousness, it's just matter of time her brain took for recovering of the traumatic shock." Lu Junhui nodded his head and said before getting up to leave, " Okay. But please make sure, she'll be fine." he shook his hand with the doctor and left.

A couple of days later, in the middle of the night.

Li Na's closed eyes fluttered her whole body trembled as if she is experiencing nerve wrenching pain. Undergoing the torturing pain and suffocation, Li Na gasped heavily for air but her mouth and nose were capped with an oxygen mask.

Her limbs trembled, she needs to hold her splitting headache but something was attached to her wrist restraining any instinctive action. But she had no energy for willing movements.

Struggling, under the faint radiation, she tried hard to open her sealed eyes and after a lot of struggling, her eyes slightly opened before shutting down as she breathed more heavily sucking the limited oxygen provided. The machines began to beep loudly.

Hurriedly, a nurse rushed in towards the bed. She looked at the fluctuating sound of the monitoring system and the girl on the bed. Seeing Li Na grasping for more oxygen, the nurse increased the oxygen level before calling the doctor. A minute later, a doctor came.

Noises of humans around Li Na were oblivious for her when her brain was on the verge of exploding. She didn't even sense the pain of needles piercing her skin. After a while, Li Na's breathing calmed down. Breathing slowly her senses began to disappear. The headache subsides compared to previous but her mind wasn't alert of her surroundings or condition yet. The throbbing pain receded and slowly reformed with mild aching. Drained out of the energy, gradually, Li Na went to sleep like retiring to normal sleep.

Early morning, The whole team of specialist doctors was examing Li Na's latest medial reports. After observing her normal breathing rate, the oxygen mask and non-required life-supporting machines were detached.

"Good, No severe complications!" said a doctor and all sighed in relief.

However, despite her weak health, an old lady, who rushed from overseas and landed early in the morning just to see her dearest granddaughter looked worried and troubled.

Grandma Li sat beside the bed caringly moving hands over Li Na's ash brown hairs. She thanked the divinity like the millionth times for saving this child with no parents.

In the early age of growing, Li Na's mother died while fighting against cancer over a lengthy period. Her father was deeply affected by her mother's demise. He loved her mother truly. And after knowing that he won't be able to survive longer Li Na's father re-married, just to provide his daughter a helping hand to live and grow into an elite lady.

Li Na's step-mother was polite and caring towards her. Thus Li Na fully became dependent on her stepmother. The little girl missed her birth mother but felt fortunate as the new mother loves her the same way.

But Li Na's happiness lasted until her father lived.

Later on, after her father's decease, her step-mother became distant. Her step-mother was not cruel or rough towards her but separated and aloof, detached. Which was more saddening and depressing for that little girl. And on a certain day, her step-mother left Li Na alone without telling.

An eleven-year-old Li Na outlasted alone inside the huge Villa. Li Na was loved yet the period was very short. It struck her psychologically.

Due to Li Na's grandfathers deteriorating health, her grandparents couldn't stay with her all the time nor she asked them to. Li Na tried to be strong and refused to resettle with them abroad nor the old couple could look after her.

Elder Li felt despair and pain she couldn't do anything for her Li Na. Her only grandchild.

With each passing year, gradually, their occasional presence didn't matter to Li Na, it couldn't fill the bottomless void inside her, nothing could. She lived with the fact, there will be people who'll love her but surely they won't stay with her forever.

At present. Someone lightly knocked on the door.

"Madam, Master Lu is waiting for you in the guest room. He's speaking with Doctor and asks if you want to talk with them." The old lady looked over the assistant and then back to her grandchild.

Elder Li nodded and gave a guarded glance towards her granddaughter before motioning the woman behind her to leave the room. A nurse followed behind the old lady pushing the wheelchair with an IV stand out of the room.
