Chapter74
Amber covered her mouth in shock, this...?
Fresh blood stained everything, like a bright red rose, tender and about to drip, splashing out. When everything was covered up, everything seemed so sad. Unbeknownst to all, she had slowly fallen...
Everything was silent, what happened after all? Why did a spirited girl become pale and powerless in an instant? And why did she fall into her arms?
It felt as if my heart had stopped beating in that instant, as if it had forgotten how to beat. I could only feel the warmth on my face slowly falling away, merging into the shocking crimson before me. All I could do was stare blankly at the bloodstains on my hands, silently mocking my own cowardice and incompetence, repeatedly calling out for the person in my arms.
"Second sister... it's all my fault, everything is my fault." Why did I have to take the bullet for her, when I could have just dodged it? After all the terrible things she'd done before, she didn't deserve me doing this for her! But now it was too late, and all she could do was silently listen to her weak breathing.
Her eyelashes trembled as she slowly opened her tightly closed eyes, seemingly with some effort. Her pale cheeks had no hint of blood color, and the smile she forced out was tinged with sadness. In a barely audible voice, she said: "It's...not your fault...this is...destined..." Her words were fragmented, making it heart-wrenching to listen. For just one moment, there was tenderness. Her slender white hand slowly rose, as if trying to touch the fleeting happiness, but instead felt her icy hand being warmed by an unseen force. A genuine smile spread across her face, and in that instant, she finally touched happiness. Or rather, she had always been touching it, only now did she understand. But was the happiness she had just truly felt about to be torn away from her soul? Although reluctant, she was content.
"Yuner, previously... the distrust was completely... completely fake, I just wanted to let you leave our protection, it's true that there wasn't any... There is no distrust between us, we didn't have trust or distrust before, only mutual dependence, but do you understand?"
Tears fell like crystal droplets on Xia Mo Li's face, gradually sliding down and merging, just like her tears. Her hands were clenched tightly as she shouted again and again: "Yun Er understands! Although Yun Er may not have understood before, but now I understand! Second sister, aren't we supposed to be together forever? You once said you wanted to make Yun Er happy, so for Yun Er's sake, please live well! Because if you leave Yun Er, Yun Er will never be happy! Do you know that?! Her gentle voice transformed into a low growl. Indeed, the people she loved most had all died; what was the point of her living on?
Her purple eyes seemed to tremble slightly, and she was stunned, still hanging on that smile without any vitality, whispering: "Thank you." Thank God for giving her happiness, but can she really ask to stay? Heaven is beautiful, but perhaps it's not suitable for demons, what about hell?
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, let me tell you, even hell wouldn't dare to take in someone as evil as you. So, you have no choice but to live well and not sleep, promise me, never sleep! We'll go to the hospital right now!" Without waiting for Xia Mu's reaction, she used her delicate body to carry Xia Mu on her back, yet her movements were extremely gentle, as if afraid of hurting her.
"Mm." He bowed his head on her small back, responding softly, his eyelids slowly falling, a string of tears sliding down his cheek, God, it's good here, I don't want to leave...
Two silhouettes gradually overlap, disappearing in this scene, leaving only a stunned Amber and an astonished black-clad man, the blood seems no longer piercing to the eyes, coagulating...
