Chapter 124 Yan Yu, I will forget you and fall in love with someone else.
Rong's father's words were blunt and merciless, showing no regard for Yan Yu's noble status. He got angry and launched into a tirade.
After sweeping the man out the door with a broom, he didn't forget to give Yan Yu a cold look: "What bad luck."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the hospital, leaving Yan Yu and Xie Li outside, letting the evening wind blow.
It was already late at night, the temperature had dropped considerably, and the wind was quite strong. The two of them were standing outside the hospital, and it was inevitable that they would feel a bit cold, especially Xie Li, whose body was still weak and had not yet recovered. He shivered slightly.
While Xie Li, who was still feeling cold, was completely unaffected, Yan Yu seemed numb, standing there stiffly like a piece of wood, his eyes slightly red.
He knew he had done too many terrible things in the past, and he understood that he had wronged Shen Jin, but when he was exposed like this, he still felt ashamed, guilty, scared, sad, and regretful.
A multitude of complex emotions welled up from the depths of his heart, intertwining chaotically and tormenting him relentlessly, leaving him feeling utterly exhausted and his heart aching as if it were about to split open.
He desperately wanted to rush over and beg the Rong family for forgiveness, but faced with their attitude, he felt completely powerless and could only stand there stiffly, watching them walk away.
Xie Li watched as Rong's father walked back into the hospital, then secretly observed Yan Yu's reaction, and cautiously called out, "A-Yu..."
His voice wasn't quiet, but Yan Yu seemed not to hear it and didn't respond. His eyes were still red, and he stared blankly at the hospital.
"Tsk," Xie Li gritted his teeth silently, feeling impatient and somewhat mocking. "Even in this state, I don't know what he's still stubborn about. What's so good about Shen Jin? He's lying half-dead in the hospital now, and who knows what kind of aftereffects he'll have when he wakes up!"
Thinking about it this way made Xie Li feel much better and gave him some comfort. After all, he felt deeply jealous of Shen Jin's sudden connection with the Rong family, which seemed to give him a powerful backer.
But fate is fair. Sure enough, it gave Shen Jin a near-death experience, and it's uncertain whether he'll be able to return to normal after waking up.
That's absolutely brilliant!
Furthermore, Yan Yu's relationship with the Rong family has so soured that it's estimated his relationship with Shen Jin isn't much better.
Xie Li couldn't control the corners of her mouth. Knowing she shouldn't laugh out loud, she restrained herself and looked at Yan Yu with concern: "Ayu, can you say something?"
Seeing that Yan Yu remained motionless and unresponsive, Xie Li grew bolder and couldn't resist pushing her luck, gently pulling his arm and shaking it slightly: "I'm really worried about you like this..."
With that shake, Yan Yu barely came to his senses and glanced at him. His once bright and beautiful peach blossom eyes were now dark and dull, as if they had no light and were somewhat unfocused.
“…Let go.” Yan Yu glanced at him and then listlessly looked away, as if he didn’t want to look at him anymore, and gently pulled his arm back from where Yan Yu was holding it.
"A-Yu..." Xie Li called softly again from the side, deliberately lowering his voice to sound incredibly gentle, and said in a soft voice, "I know you're feeling unwell, but it's already very late. Can you find a place to rest first?"
Standing in the pitch-black night, Yan Yu looked rather forlorn. The cold wind tousled his hair, making him appear exceptionally disheveled. The bloodshot eyes hadn't faded yet. He whispered sadly, "...Does he... really not forgive me...?"
Xie Li, who was about to pretend to persuade Yan Yu, suddenly froze, not understanding what he was talking about for a moment, and blurted out, "Who is it?"
“Shen Jin…” Yan Yu stared unfocusedly at the hazy night ahead, his thoughts racing. Many past scenes uncontrollably surfaced in his mind, pressing down on his heart like a mountain, making it hard to breathe. He asked with difficulty, “…What should I do if he doesn’t forgive me…”
The moment this question surfaced, Yan Yu felt a chill run through his body and shivered slightly. He felt fear again.
It seems that when he hurt Chen Jin in the past, he didn't even need to think; he just acted on his temper without a second thought. But now, when he wants to make amends for his past mistakes and wants to do something, he's at a loss and doesn't know what to do...
Xie Li: "..."
Forgive you, you bastard!
After all that, he was still foolishly thinking about the person lying in the hospital bed, whether they were alive or dead. Even after being chased out by the Rong family with brooms, he was still thinking about it!
How shameless! How shameless! How shameless!
Serves you right!
After cursing himself inwardly, Xie Li breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much lighter and more refreshed. He glanced at Yan Yu again, adding fuel to the fire, "Shen Jin will probably have a hard time forgetting the past... plus, Madam Rong and the others don't have a good impression of you..."
He actually wanted Yan Yu to back down and stop this. He himself felt uncomfortable watching it, let alone others.
After all, when Shen Jin was by his side before, he didn't care at all, and even thought it was perfectly normal to be two-timing. Now he's only starting to realize that Shen Jin is of some use. He deserves it.
Why didn't you do this sooner?
Although Xie Li loathed Shen Jin and couldn't stand to see him do well, wishing him dead, he also looked down on Yan Yu's actions and even found them disgusting, feeling they were pretentious and not genuine at all.
After all, if you really have someone in your heart, wouldn't you cherish that person and think about them all the time? But Yan Yu didn't. He only cared about his own thoughts, and he would get angry if Shen Jin didn't follow his ideas.
"What should I do..." Yan Yu felt a chill in his heart. He slightly raised his head and looked at Xie Li beside him with a sense of desperation. His voice was still hoarse. "What should I do to make him forgive me..."
"This..." Xie Li's lips twitched slightly, and he forced a smile, saying with some worry, "Ayu, don't worry, your health is the most important thing... There will always be a way, it'll be fine once Shen Jin wakes up... Maybe he doesn't even care..."
If possible, Xie Li would rather Shen Jin never wake up, or perhaps he could stay in a vegetative state for the rest of his life, which would be quite good, since he would be spared all the hardships of the world, which might be the best thing for him.
When Yan Yu heard Xie Li say, "Maybe Shen Jin won't mind," his heart sank slightly, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips. How could he not mind?
Yan Yu knew Shen Jin's attitude towards him back then, and now that Shen Jin had caused him to be in a car accident and lying in the hospital, how could he not care?
Shen Jin probably hates him to death...
Yan Yu's vision went black, and his body swayed, almost falling. Xie Li quickly supported him, asking with some anxiety, "A-Yu, what's wrong? You should rest first!"
"Let go, I don't want to leave... I want to go see him again..." Yan Yu pushed away Xie Li's support. Just thinking that Shen Jin might not forgive him and would hate him even more made him more afraid. He was afraid that after he left, he would never be able to see him again.
The evening breeze made his clothes flutter. He looked disheveled, having not had a proper rest recently. He staggered forward, as if he might collapse at any moment. His back view was both wretched and lonely.
Xie Li frowned, staring at his back as he looked away, feeling a pang of unease. He pursed his dry lips and said, "A-Yu..."
Now that things have come to this, what's the point? And now you're putting on this pitiful act again—who are you trying to fool?
Xie Li couldn't help but sneer in his heart. After he finished sneering, he still followed and tried to help him up, but Yan Yu still shook him off.
Xie Li was somewhat dissatisfied, but he didn't show it. He sighed softly and said, "You don't need to do this. Even if you go there now, you won't see him..."
“…I’m worried,” Yan Yu pursed his lips, his throat bobbing, and he staggered forward, giving a self-deprecating laugh. “I’m afraid that once he wakes up, he…will be even less… willing to see me…”
So we need to check on him as much as possible before he wakes up, every single glance counts...
As for how to get Shen Jin to forgive him, we'll figure that out slowly...
He staggered forward a few steps, then suddenly felt dizzy and lost his balance. Before he could react, everything went black, and he collapsed onto the cold floor.
This sudden change startled Xie Li, who was taken aback. Seeing him collapse on the cold floor, she gasped, "A-Yu!"
Yan Yu didn't hear his voice at this moment. He only felt lightheaded and dizzy, and then he fell asleep.
Yan Yu didn't know where he was. He vaguely had a dream. His vision, which was originally pitch black, gradually cleared up. In the sunlight ahead, he saw Chen Jin.
This Shen Jin was somewhat unfamiliar, seemingly not the one he knew. He appeared aloof and cold, and his aura seemed rather sinister...
Shen Jin saw him, glanced at him indifferently with a cold hatred in his eyes, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips.
Yan Yu felt a chill in his heart. He took a difficult step forward, wanting to walk to his side, and called out in a hoarse voice, "Shen Jin... please forgive me. This time, I will definitely make it up to you. I will never do it again..."
Shen Jin smiled and interrupted him: "Make up for what? I don't need you anymore."
“I…” Yan Yu’s eyes reddened even more, and he looked at him helplessly, as if he had been abandoned, his voice hoarse, “I know you’re still angry… I also know I’ve done too many things to hurt you in the past, and I know I was wrong, I…”
Shen Jin scoffed, looking at him with amusement: "You know you're wrong? What's the use of knowing you're wrong? I've still suffered those wounds, endured countless moments of despair and collapse, shed countless drops of blood, and lay on the edge of life and death in the operating room time and time again... none of this was fake."
His words were like a knife, stabbing deeply into Yan Yu's heart, drawing blood and making it difficult to breathe. His eyes welled up with tears, and his voice choked with sobs: "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry... Shen Jin, I..."
The Shen Jin in this dream was so bizarre and cruel. He laughed heartily, full of sarcasm: "You look really ugly. Who are you trying to impress? I won't be moved, I won't pity or feel sorry for you. On the contrary, it makes me feel very happy. So why bother pretending?"
"...No, no! I didn't! I just, I just..." Yan Yu shook his head violently with red eyes, so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He wanted to prove to Shen Jin that he knew he was wrong and that he really wanted to treat him well.
But Shen Jin would no longer believe him, nor would she appreciate his kindness anymore...
"Just what?" Shen Jin smiled, a smile that was particularly unfamiliar to Yan Yu, yet it deeply stung his eyes, leaving him both frightened and helpless.
Even so, Yan Yu rushed over without hesitation, anxiously grabbing Shen Jin's hands. His bloodshot eyes were filled with panic and helplessness, and he pleaded with a sob in his voice, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. If you're willing to give me a chance, I promise I'll do better this time..."
As he spoke, tears welled up in Yan Yu's eyes and streamed down his face. He looked pitiful and disheveled, completely unlike his usual aloof demeanor.
Unfortunately, even so, Shen Jin remained unmoved, as if his mind was made up, without even blinking. It was as if he didn't know that he had no right to shed tears before he had even cried.
Although he didn't say it aloud, Yan Yu could still read the meaning in his half-mocking eyes. It was blatant and undisguised, as if he wasn't afraid of letting him know, or of making him sad or embarrassed...
For a moment, Yan Yu felt a numb pain in his chest.
He remembered how gentle and always smiling Shen Jin used to be to him. Shen Jin often made him breakfast back then, and each time it tasted different and was especially delicious. He was always very happy...
But now, those warm and beautiful scenes seem like a distant memory, as if they never existed, and we can never go back to that time.
The one who destroyed all of this was not Shen Jin, but himself...
"Shen Jin..." Yan Yu's throat went numb, and his voice trembled with sobs. He tried desperately to hold back, but the more he cried out, the more unbearable it became. He choked out, "I'm so sorry..."
Shen Jin's usually calm eyes flickered slightly at this moment, but it was fleeting. He wiped the mocking smile from his face and became somewhat indifferent, as if he no longer cared. He slowly said, "Yan Yu, I will forget you and fall in love with someone else."
