Chapter 181 You'll Never Understand

Upon arriving at the hospital, Wang Ye staggered into the building, not even knowing which emergency room Lily was in.

He went in like a madman, grabbed the person in the white coat, and started asking questions.

The nurse pointed to the information desk over there, "Go ask over there."

Wang Ye left the nurse and ran to the information desk to ask for Lily's name. The nurse then gave him directions.

He rushed into the emergency room immediately. The door was closed, and Lily was still inside receiving emergency treatment.

Wang Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief and plopped down on the ground, his forehead drenched in sweat.

Qiao Xing followed, and she and Qin Ce stood to the side. Seeing Wang Ye sitting blankly on the floor, she felt very uncomfortable.

She sat down in the chair and waited quietly.

After waiting for nearly five hours, Zhou Lan also arrived. The old man had difficulty walking, but he just refused to sit down.

She clasped her hands together and prayed in a certain direction.

She then took out a bank card from her pocket, held it in her hand, and gave it to Wang Ye.

Wang Ye looked up at her blankly. He originally wanted to call her Auntie, but for some reason, he changed his mind and called her "Mom".

"What are you doing?" Wang Ye's voice was a little hoarse; he had hurt his throat from shouting too loudly on the rooftop earlier.

Zhou Lan said, "I still have 10,000 yuan here. Please, please save Lili."

Looking into the old man's pleading eyes, Wang Ye felt a lump in his throat. He grabbed the old man's hand and pushed the card back, saying, "Keep it."

"No matter what, Lily and I are married, and I won't abandon her."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Lan burst into tears instantly, and she raised her sleeve to wipe them away.

She must be thinking that Wang Ye is a good person, and she feels sorry for him on behalf of her daughter.

As the two were talking, the door to the emergency room suddenly opened, and several doctors came out.

Wang Ye didn't have time to talk to Zhou Lan. He went to her and asked, "Doctor, how is she?"

The doctor glanced at him and shook his head with great regret.

Wang Ye staggered back a step, almost losing his balance.

The doctor added, "She is three weeks pregnant."

Wang Ye lost his balance completely this time and sat upright on the ground. He looked up and saw someone pushing a bed out from inside.

There was a person lying on the bed, covered with a white sheet.

Qiao Xing slowly stood up from the chair, staring intently at the white sheet, as if he could see through it and make out the face of the person lying underneath.

The doctor said, "I'm so sorry, we've done our best, but the floor was too high and almost none of the internal organs were intact, so... please accept my condolences."

Neither Wang Ye nor Qiao Xing had the courage to lift the white cloth and reveal the truth beneath it.

It was Zhou Lan who mustered her courage and slowly stretched out her withered hand, gradually lifting the white cloth.

The body was relatively intact, not disfigured beyond recognition, but Qiao Xing only saw half of it before turning his head away.

Qin Ce pulled her into his arms and patted her back.

Qiao Xing's mood calmed down a little when she smelled his fragrance.

Wang Ye only glanced at it before closing his eyes in anguish. He even wondered if Lily would still have jumped so resolutely if she knew she was pregnant.

Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now.

She will never open her eyes again.

Zhou Lan knelt down on the ground, unable to stop herself from crying out in a hoarse, aged voice.

The medical staff spent a long time trying to calm them down before they finally composed themselves.

Wang Ye contacted the funeral home and asked them to come and take Lily there.

When Qiao Xing was leaving the hospital, he ran into Wang Qin and her uncle. The two siblings stood together and realized how much they looked alike.

Their noses and mouths look like they were made from the same mold.

The uncle caught up and asked, "How did it go?"

Qiao Xing shook his head; his silence spoke volumes.

The uncle sighed sadly, "What's bothering this child..."

Qiao Xing opened his mouth, perhaps because normal people would never understand what those who couldn't see things clearly were thinking.

But when Qiao Xing saw Wang Ye's devastated state, she vaguely guessed what it was all about.

She didn't know about other things, but Wang Ye's involvement was definitely involved.

Lily may have called herself selfish, but she still felt a pang of pity for Wang Ye.

Finally, Qiao Xing went to the funeral home with his uncle and the others. Wang Ye seemed to have calmed down and accepted the reality.

He stayed by Lily's side, holding her hand, staring at her tightly closed eyes, speechless with emotion.

As for her aunt, she never appeared from beginning to end. It's unclear whether she was afraid of seeing Lily or afraid that Wang Ye would treat her coldly.

"Cousin, don't be sad. Please accept my condolences."

These words brought tears to Wang Ye's eyes again. He clenched his teeth tightly to keep himself from crying out loud.

He told Qiao Xing, "Cousin, I'm not afraid to tell you this, but I entered the workforce early. I started working when I was a teenager."

"Back then, I was young and arrogant, and I was very picky because I was good-looking."

"Then, I became arrogant and started pursuing a few outstanding girls. And then... they all said I was a toad trying to eat swan meat. I still remember the way they looked at me."

"Later, I realized my own limitations and identity."

He gave up hope on relationships. At that time, he thought, "Whatever, I'll stay single. With my looks and qualifications, I doubt any girl would like me."

Don't be fooled by the fact that they work in a factory; the girls there are much more realistic than most people. Even though their requirements are the most basic, and in most people's eyes, they are very low.

They own a car and a house.

But for Wang Ye, who only earns a few thousand yuan a month, this is like climbing to the sky.

So he spent his entire monthly salary; rather than settle for a transactional marriage, he preferred to live a carefree life.

Later, he met Lily, who was beautiful, had a great figure, and was highly educated.

She told him she didn't care about cars or houses, and she always praised him, calling him "darling" all the time. She restored Wang Ye's lost confidence, but she also stole his soul.

It's embarrassing to admit, but it was his first serious relationship. He'd never been in one before, so he was completely devoted to Lily.

I wish I could give her my whole heart.

They treat Lily like royalty. When Lily asks for something, she is quite tactful and won't ask for it directly. She will say something like, "This is so pretty, but I can't afford it."

To make her happy, Wang Ye ate instant noodles, worked overtime, took on part-time jobs, and even borrowed money from Qiao Xing to buy her gifts.

Lily, upon receiving the gift, would tease him even more. Seeing her happy smile, Wang Ye felt it was all worth it.

Even later, Lily gradually revealed her true colors, becoming slovenly and no longer looking glamorous every day.

Wang Ye also thought that this was because the two of them had become familiar with each other, and Lily had completely accepted him and was willing to show him her most authentic self.

Wang Ye loved her even more.

Although Lily was lying to him, he had to admit that those days were the happiest time of his life, filling him with fighting spirit and happiness every day.

So when Lily took the betrothal gifts and wanted to break up, he just felt that he was a failure.

Qiao Xing couldn't offer any opinion on Wang Ye's extreme case of being obsessed with love.

You are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish?

By the end, Wang Ye was sobbing uncontrollably. He looked at Qiao Xing and cried, "Cousin, Lily is gone, she's gone!"

"I called her for so long, but she didn't respond to me..."
