Once again on the brink of life and death
Chen Xing held the piece of glass at the mouth of the bottle tightly in her hand. Some of the broken glass pricked her hand before falling off.
Chen Xing's hand was cut by the glass, and bright red blood was flowing out from several places.
Chen De was so frightened by Chen Xing's move that he took two steps back. He held Liu Fang and did not dare to move forward. He only saw Chen Xing's fierce eyes, as if he was crazy.
Chen Xing spoke in a cold and hard tone, with words that were neither light nor heavy, but she only looked normal. In fact, the evil beast in her heart could no longer hold back and wanted to rush out.
From the moment she knew her brother would never come back, she had nothing to worry about. She had lost everything she could lose and was no longer afraid of anything.
Chen Xing tightened his grip on the broken glass, his eyes fierce as he walked towards the two people at the door. He said, "Why are you guys keeping the door closed in the daytime? Why are you afraid to face the neighbors in the village? Also, why is Chen Feng not home at this hour?"
Chen Xing stared at the two men with a terrifying gaze. Chen De and Liu Fang had no courage to fight back because they only felt ashamed and had no remorse in their hearts.
Chen De and Liu Fang still remembered when Chen Xing threatened Chen Rong on New Year's Eve. They were now powerless and afraid of causing a bigger trouble, so they could only retreat and not dare to move forward.
Liu Fang said with trembling hands: "Chen Xing, what on earth do you want to do? Calm down..."
Liu Fang was halfway through her words when she saw more and more blood flowing out of Chen Xing's hand holding the glass fragments, gathering into several red lines. The gathered blood beads dripped onto the ground, looking dazzling and terrifying.
Chen Xing's rationality, which she had tried so hard to suppress, had long been devoured. She just wanted her brother to come back, even if it meant just a word or a smile. She just missed him and wanted to see him again...
Chen Xing suddenly raised the shards of glass and shouted at Chen De and Liu Fang, "You forced him to death. You made me lose my brother. You ruined his life. You... took away the last... the little bit of happiness I could have. Ah! I... I don't have a brother anymore. There's no one who loves me anymore..."
Chen Xing shouted at the top of his lungs, every word was heartbreaking, and every word stabbed her heart. Her heart, the heart that was mended by Chen Tian, was now only left with fragments that could not be put together. She felt pain all over her body, and even breathing was uncomfortable.
Liu Fang was frightened by Chen Xing and stammered incoherently, "Chen Xing, you can't do this! You are the murderer who killed him! Chen Tian died because of you!"
Liu Fang no longer cared about anything else. She knew that Chen Xing in front of her had lost his mind. She didn't want to die yet, so she said whatever she wanted to say.
The pupils of Chen Xing's eyes suddenly shrank, and the other hand holding the urn was obviously touched.
Chen Xing said, "Shut up! I don't believe it, you guys do."
Liu Fang saw that Chen Xing did not come forward again, and she thought that if she provoked Chen Xing like this, he would let them go.
Liu Fang had to tell her what happened in the hospital that day, "Chen Tian owed Chen Rong 300,000 yuan just for your future. Without him, you would have been locked up by now. How dare you blame us here?"
Chen Xing listened to Liu Fang's words. She didn't want to believe it at all, but she subconsciously agreed with her. She felt like there were two voices fighting in her brain, making her head about to explode.
Liu Fang didn't know when to quit, and she even tried to provoke Chen Xing: "My capable son had to sell his kidney just to raise money, and it was all because of you. He always took your side. We are obviously a family, what gives you the right!"
When Chen Xing heard Liu Fang's words, she was mentally stimulated and could no longer think normally or tell the truth from falsehood. She just wanted to seek justice for Chen Tian.
The blood on Chen Xing's hands kept flowing, and even the glass fragments were stained bright red.
"No, it's not like that. I didn't. I didn't kill him. I wouldn't. I'm sorry! Ah~ Brother, I..."
Chen Xing felt like her brain was about to split, her heart was aching unbearably, breathing became difficult, and her throat felt as if someone was strangling it, but she still struggled to hold on, holding on to the glass fragments tightly, the sharp edges piercing into her flesh.
Chen Xing was thinking, she was in so much pain, why was her brother, who loved her the most, gone...
"Chen Xing! Don't be impulsive!"
Fortunately, Fu Ying arrived in time. Seeing Chen Xing's torment and collapse, she persuaded her to throw away the glass.
Tears rolled down Chen Xing's cheeks. She turned around and saw Fu Ying standing there. She wished he had come back.
"Chen Xing! Be obedient and don't hurt yourself. Your brother will be sad. Put the glass down..."
Chen Xing looked in the direction of Fu Ying outside the door, and suddenly her breath was choked in her throat. A smile appeared on her painful face. She seemed to see Chen Tian coming to pick her up. He smiled and waved to her, but didn't say a word.
The glass fragments in Chen Xing's hand fell, and she raised her bloody hand into the air, wanting to hold the hand that always gave her warmth, but she had no strength left and fell to the ground holding Chen Tian's urn.
Seeing this, Fu Ying quickly helped Chen Xing up. Chen De and Liu Fang were frightened and no one dared to step forward for fear that he would fall on them.
Seeing that Chen Xing was still conscious, Fu Ying called her name, "Chen Xing, take a deep breath. Don't hold it. Think about your brother. He doesn't want you to be like this. Come on, breathe!"
Chen Xing's face first turned red, then slowly lost its color. His face was pale and he looked lifeless.
Fu Ying found a quick-acting heart pill on Chen Xing's body, and tried to give it to her while trying to arouse her desire to survive.
"Chen Xing! You can't die. Yes, you can't. Your brother left something for you. He has something for you. Hurry and breathe!"
Fu Ying performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Chen Xing. She kept talking about Chen Tian until she saw Chen Xing's tightly closed eyes tremble slightly and felt the breath that Chen Xing had been holding in his chest being exhaled.
Fu Ying, sweating profusely, shouted to the two people in the corner, "Call an ambulance!"
When Chen Xing woke up again, it was already night. Fu Ying had been guarding her bedside. When she saw her open her eyes, she called a doctor.
Fu Ying heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the doctor's words. Looking at Chen Xing, who lay in a daze on the hospital bed, she whispered softly, "Fortunately, fortunately you're alive. He must be blessing you."
After the doctor left, Chen Xing just stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, motionless. Apart from breathing, he was no different from being dead.
Fu Ying sat beside the bed and said, "This is the county hospital. The doctor said that you almost died this time... but it will be fine once you wake up. Don't think too much about it."
"I know you don't want to talk right now. Get well first. Don't think about hurting yourself. Your brother... doesn't want to see you like this."
"When you're feeling better, I'll give you everything your brother left you."
Fu Ying looked at the weak Chen Xing without blinking, knowing that she was upset, but she cared about Chen Tian. Knowing that Chen Tian left something for her, she could tell that Chen Tian didn't want her to commit suicide.
Chen Xing blinked and two tears fell. She had been crying non-stop these days.
She was wondering why she was saved again. She had just seen Chen Tian coming to pick her up, so why didn't she hold his hand? She wanted to go with him so much...
When will this tragedy end? She wanders on the edge of life and death again and again, but is always pushed into this cold world. Where will her end be?
*
After more than a week, there was finally a glimmer of light in Chen Xing's eyes, but she still didn't speak much. She just stared out the window every day. Fu Ying didn't know what she was thinking, but she just stayed by her side every day.
During this period, Chen Xing seemed to be out of touch with the world. He did not contact anyone and did not think about going out for a walk. He either stared at the ceiling or said nothing. He closed all his senses and was unwilling to face reality.
Fu Ying knew that if Chen Xing continued like this, she would become depressed. Her mental state was already a little abnormal, and if she didn't vent it out, it would sooner or later cause trouble if she kept it in her heart.
Fu Ying was peeling an apple for Chen Xing. She glanced at Chen Xing, who was staring out the window, and said, "Do you want to know about your brother?"
When Fu Ying talked to Chen Xing these days, she just shook her head or answered briefly with a few words. She no longer had the lively and cheerful look she had before.
But whenever she mentioned Chen Tian, there would always be some light in Chen Xing's dazed eyes, and he would ask a few more questions.
Fu Ying originally wanted to wait until Chen Xing's condition stabilized before telling her, but Chen Xing had been too depressed these days and she needed to vent. Otherwise, even if the heart disease was suppressed, the spirit would kill her.
Chen Xing was lying by the window, his back to Fu Ying. Fu Ying couldn't see Chen Xing's expression, but she heard her say, "Why did he commit suicide?"
Chen Xing could never understand why Chen Tian committed suicide. It was impossible for such an objective and positive person to go to this point unless he was really forced into a desperate situation.
Fu Ying had peeled the apple halfway when she suddenly stopped, put away the knife, and put the apple back on the fruit plate.
Fu Ying said, "There are too many reasons. Each and every one of them pushed him to a dead end. But in the final analysis, it was for you. In order not to be a burden to you, to give you a life you can choose for yourself, for your future, he chose to end his life."
"But he did it voluntarily because you are his beloved sister and the only light in his dark world. So you must not waste your life anymore. If you hurt yourself, you will be sorry for him and everything he has done for you."
Fu Ying's words were what she had always wanted to say. As Chen Tian's most trusted friend, she sometimes didn't understand Chen Tian, but she admired his selflessness towards Chen Xing. Perhaps Chen Xing saved Chen Tian first, so he was just returning the favor.
Chen Xing listened to Fu Ying's words. She had already thought about it these days. It seemed that she was the only one who could threaten Chen Tian's life.
Chen Xing suddenly lowered her head, her tears dried up, only her wounded heart was trembling, pulling at her and making her feel uncomfortable all over.
