Chapter 231 Fourteen years ago, he was the one who gave up on her!
Upon hearing this voice, Ji Ying felt a sudden chill run down her spine.
She tried hard to see where she was and who was speaking, but her field of vision was so narrow that she could see nothing but hear.
“Teacher Shen,” it was Liang Yizhi’s voice, “there’s no other choice. I assure you, I will not give up on her.”
Then came the man's helpless and pained voice, "One day, you will regret choosing me now!"
Although she couldn't see clearly, Ji Ying could feel the tension and tragic atmosphere silently permeating the air.
“Professor,” a female voice said resolutely, “I will protect Miss even if it costs me my life.”
Hearing this, the fog in Ji Ying's eyes dissipated.
She saw a woman hurriedly helping a little girl get into the car.
Then, the car sped away like an arrow released from a bow.
"Teacher Shen, let's go quickly."
Ji Ying turned around, but could only see the cars leaving in several separate groups.
What's going on?
what happened?
Before she could even think, a sharp pain ripped through her consciousness...
At the entrance of the ICU ward,
Xiao Chang led a staff member wearing a name tag to Liang Yizhi.
This was the second day that Ji Ying was in a coma.
The man, who was always meticulous about his appearance, now had a stubble of dark green on his chin, and his crisp shirt was wrinkled from wearing it all night.
This was the first time Xiao Chang had seen Liang Yizhi so unkempt.
“Mr. Liang,” Xiao Chang said softly, taking into account his mood, “this is President Mo of the Red Cross.”
Liang Yizhi looked at the other person, puzzled.
Chairman Mo quickly stepped forward, speaking cautiously.
“Mr. Liang, according to procedure, we could have notified her by phone, but considering the feelings of the family, we decided to inform her in person. Ms. Ji Ying had registered as an organ donation volunteer. If she unfortunately passes away, her heart will be donated to Ms. Xiao Xia free of charge.”
After explaining his purpose, seeing Liang Yizhi's gloomy expression, he quickly added, "Please don't get agitated, this is just a routine notification. We all hope Miss Ji can recover soon."
While searching for a way out for Xiao Xiasheng, Ji Ying also prepared for the worst.
Saving Xiao Xia was her only obsession for the remaining four years, and in all her considerations, she herself was the only one who was insignificant.
A bitter feeling welled up in Liang Yizhi's heart, but he quickly suppressed it.
"Is the process complete?" His figure was cold and hard.
Chairman Mo nodded hurriedly.
"But she is still alive. You two can leave now after you've verified her identity. We won't see you off."
Given Ji Ying's current situation, Xiao Chang didn't say much, so he left with Chairman Mo.
"These people are so cold-blooded," Jiang Ran said indignantly.
Liang Yizhi didn't say anything and was about to turn around and go back to the ICU ward when Liang Jian arrived.
"Second Uncle, I heard Yingying is here. How is she?"
Liang Yizhi looked at him coldly, "If the Beijing project hadn't been suspended, you probably wouldn't even remember her."
"What?" Liang Jian was completely confused. "Second Uncle, what happened to the project in Beijing?"
Obviously, he is unaware of what happened at his company.
Liang Yizhi looked away. "In your heart, is your fiancée a decoration, or a pawn?"
“No, Second Uncle,” Liang Jian said, his voice filled with anguish, “I did it for the greater good. I never imagined she would be hurt like this. I really…”
Before he could finish speaking, a nurse who was observing the patient in the ICU ran to the door and said to Liang Yizhi, "The patient has woken up."
"Let me tell you, the reason you're still standing here is because after Yingying wakes up, I'll hand you over to her to deal with. Put away your self-righteous words; women are never sacrifices for the greater good!"
Liang Yizhi left Liang Jian behind and walked back to the bedside in a few steps.
Ji Ying struggled out of her chaotic consciousness.
The first sensation I felt was not light, but a splitting pain deep within my skull, as if steel needles were being churned inside.
The excruciating pain forced her to open her eyes.
My vision was blurred, and my chest felt heavy, making it hard to breathe.
But a man's face gradually revealed its outline through the blur.
“Yingying…”
Liang Yizhi's voice was hoarse, filled with the cautiousness of something lost and regained, as he reached out to touch her cheek.
But Ji Ying turned her head away from her hand.
Liang Yizhi's hand froze in mid-air.
Ji Ying looked at him, her vision becoming clearer and clearer, but her breathing becoming more and more rapid.
Fourteen years ago, he was the one who gave up on her!
Ji Ying felt a deep pain in her heart, her whole body trembled, and even the monitor emitted a piercing alarm.
Upon hearing the news, the doctor rushed to the scene and immediately ordered the nurses in a deep voice, "Prepare sedatives!"
He then turned to Ji Ying, his tone serious and urgent, "Miss Ji, you must calm down! If you continue to be so agitated, your heart will fail. We can only give you a sedative!"
Ji Ying quickly touched her chest and shook her head.
She even managed to utter a strained voice, "No... my heart... is for Xiaxia."
She closed her eyes, forcing back the last of her tears.
The family affection I had always longed for was nothing more than a bargaining chip that my parents could sacrifice at any time.
Being kind to others only resulted in repeated betrayals and hurt.
So why does she smile at the world?
Ji Ying took a deep breath, opened her eyes again, and her breathing was much more stable.
She met Liang Yizhi's anxious gaze, and instead of looking away, she slowly turned her eyes to his hand, which was suspended in mid-air and unable to touch her.
“Liang…Liang Yizhi, I thought I would never see you again.”
She spoke, her voice weak but clear.
It was as if the evasion just now was merely a momentary amnesia.
The anxiety on Liang Yizhi's face dissipated, and he even visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I almost thought you didn't remember me."
Ji Ying closed her eyes briefly and forced a smile. "That was true at first."
Liang Yizhi grasped her hand. "I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Ji Ying looked at him without saying a word.
The doctor said, "Miss Ji is still in poor spirits. Give her some time to recover and try to keep her from talking."
Liang Yizhi placed her hand on his face and smiled.
At this moment, Liang Jian stood at the door and called out "Yingying" into the room.
Ji Ying slowly turned her head to look at him.
Liang Jian intended to come in, but Jiang Ran stopped him, so he could only press himself against the door frame and peer inside.
Seeing Liang Yizhi place Ji Ying's hand on his face without any restraint, and the two of them being intimate, he felt extremely bitter.
“I’ve been very worried about you,” Liang Jian said.
Ji Ying's gaze gradually turned cold.
After trying to calm herself down, she forced herself to speak: "Young Master, you have saved me twice. The time your mother took me for a humiliating examination, I didn't call the police, so that was the first time I repaid you. This is the second time, so we're even. I'm not your fiancée, and I have no obligation to cooperate with your treatment. Let's end it here."
After saying that, she closed her eyes wearily.
"No, you are my fiancée, you love me!"
Liang Jian trembled as he tried to rush in.
Liang Yizhi's eyes narrowed, and he ordered Jiang Ran, "Stop him!"
Upon receiving the order, Jiang Ran delivered a swift straight punch to Liang Jian's face.
Liang Jian had just uttered the word "Ying" when he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
The reason he fainted was not because he was punched by Jiang Ran, but because of arrhythmia.
The doctors and nurses quickly carried him to the emergency room.
When Liang Yizhi turned to look at Ji Ying again, his gaze became incredibly gentle and deep.
"I'll go to the Liang residence to get your things. You should get some rest."
As he was saying this, he tried to let go of Ji Ying's hand, but Ji Ying held onto it instead.
"That fat guy said... if you don't dare to mess with the person behind him, why did you come?"
Liang Yizhi smiled slightly and gently stroked her cheek with his other hand. His movements were gentle, but a complex emotion, difficult to detect, flashed in his eyes.
"It doesn't matter who's behind him. What matters is that I can't lose you."
He leaned down and placed a light kiss on her forehead before getting up and leaving.
The moment the door closed, the thin layer of dependence in Ji Ying's eyes vanished instantly, leaving only a cold struggle.
She had tasted his warmth and his decisiveness. Now, she hoped that his affection was also a calculation, so that she could sever all ties without hesitation and drag him and those who hurt and abandoned her into hell together.
After recovering from her sadness, Ji Ying picked up the phone and called Lin Meizhen.
The phone rang for a long time before someone answered.
"Can you still move?" Ji Ying asked.
Lin Meizhen gritted her teeth and sat up in bed. "It's alright. I had a miscarriage, but the hospital preserved the embryo. Liang Yizhi arranged for someone to do an expedited DNA test. What do we do now?"
Ji Ying's eyes flashed with a cold light. "Get ready, throw the embryo in Liang Weiyue's face."
