"...That was an accident, an accident."
Xia Che coughed lightly, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Although it was a desperate choice made under duress...
But this was indeed the first time Xia Che had ever hit a woman.
In his anger, he didn't hold back. Looking at Jiang Yu's delicate face, which was now swollen up like a steamed bun, he felt even more embarrassed.
Not only was Jiang Yu's face swollen from the beating, but even her own hand was hurt from the recoil...
The scene immediately fell silent.
Xia Che felt embarrassed because he had just hit a woman, while Jiang Yu sat on the ground, her beautiful eyes constantly flickering, lost in thought.
"Hello."
Suddenly, Jiang Yu called out, her gaze darting around as if she was hesitating about something.
"what?"
Xia Che roughly guessed what Jiang Yu was thinking and asked in a deliberately irritating manner.
Seeing this, Jiang Yu, who had already realized her mistake, panicked when she saw that Xia Che was still angry. She quickly made up her mind as if to make amends, biting her cherry lips tightly, and stretched out her hand to Xia Che: "I'm going to be a lot of trouble in the future, really, really troublesome, but I think... having a fool by my side might not be so bad?"
"Please continue to guide me in the future, my... great hero."
After speaking, Jiang Yu spoke before Xia Che, her cheeks slightly flushed. Clearly, saying such cheesy words was a challenge for her.
"Um!"
Xia Che didn't sense anything was wrong. He reached out and held Jiang Yu's hand tightly, his expression serious, but he felt relieved.
We finally managed to pull this extreme girl back from the brink of disaster...
He breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been worried about it for the past few days, but thankfully the result was good.
The sky was so blue that even my soaked and chilled body felt warm at that moment.
Emotions are the most direct senses of human beings.
Jiang Yu no longer wants to die.
...
On the beach, Xia Che, supporting Jiang Yu, glanced at her and asked earnestly, "Are you ready?"
"You...you really have to slow down, falling like that must hurt a lot, right?"
Jiang Yu clung tightly to Xia Che, wrapping her arms around his neck and shouting loudly.
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems."
Xia Che spoke with great conviction.
This was a sudden thought of his.
He wanted Jiang Yu to experience the feeling of running, even if it was just once.
Soon, with Xia Che's encouragement, Jiang Yu gradually mustered her courage, and Xia Che led her forward step by step.
The two were in a comical position. Jiang Yu's legs were dragging weakly on the ground. It was more like they were dragging her along than running with her.
But the two of them looked very serious.
Step by step, the speed gradually increased.
Xia Che held his breath, and heard Jiang Yu's panting beside him. He glanced at her and saw something flickering in her eyes.
At that moment, it seemed as if she had truly grown two complete legs, and every step she took was firmly planted on the ground.
"Hurry up."
"Faster..."
Xia Che agreed and sped up. Jiang Yu's hair, which was already half-dry, became wet again under the influence of sweat.
Finally, Jiang Yu shouted and crashed through the non-existent finish line.
With a thud, Jiang Yu had no more strength left and fell heavily to the ground with Xia Che.
Are you alright?
Xia Che panicked and was about to ask when Jiang Yu suddenly hugged him.
The hug was very tight, as if she had used up all her strength.
"I want to live."
"I want to live..."
"I want to live!!!"
She could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
Xia Che's clothes were all soaked.
Seeing this, Xia Che let out a long sigh of relief, hugged her, and lay down on the beach again with a smile on his face, because he knew that Jiang Yu had emerged from the shadows.
This time, he saw Jiang Yu's belief in wanting to live.
He saw it.
"Did you see the medicinal herbs I prepared for Grandma last night?"
Xia Che lay on the ground, gazing at the azure sky, and suddenly asked a question.
He suddenly realized why Jiang Yu had made such a hasty decision to die today.
My grandmother had just passed away not long ago, and now, almost without me noticing, I've brought her something that can cure her illness.
This gap that was just one step away from being caught up...
Xia Che felt a chill run down his spine just thinking about it; even he couldn't stand it, let alone Jiang Yu.
I should have found out first before sending it...
Xia Che sighed.
"..."
Jiang Yu was breathing heavily, and her face, which had been smiling happily just moments before, fell silent again in the blink of an eye.
She looked at the sky and didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Xia Che's heart sank slightly. It was precisely because of Jiang Yu's behavior that he became even more certain of his guess.
Jiang Yu cursed herself inwardly for doing a good deed that backfired. The joyful atmosphere had been completely washed away by this incident. Jiang Yu was immersed in grief, while Xia Che felt a little guilty and didn't know what to say.
Time passed slowly, and after an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yu looked away from the azure sky, rubbed her eyes, and found that her eyes hurt from looking at it for too long.
Then, she looked at Xia Che and smiled slightly: "By the way, I discovered something, I wonder if it's a blessing in disguise."
"What's up?"
Seeing the smile on Jiang Yu's face, Xia Che understood that the other party did not want to dwell on the previous topic and was deliberately changing the subject, so he followed up by asking.
Neither of them was at fault in the matter of Jiang Yu's grandmother's death, but it was precisely because neither of them was at fault that Jiang Yu suffered even more.
She didn't want to blame her only good friend, and she didn't want to see Xia Che blame himself for this. Xia Che understood all of this.
"When I was in the sea, I was almost dizzy. I was so panicked that I didn't notice anything, but now that I think about it... there was something wrong with it."
Jiang Yu frowned, pointed mysteriously to her legs, and said, "Hey, Xia Che, do you believe in miracles?"
"Miracles...of course I believe in them."
Xia Che's eyes darted around, and when he saw Jiang Yu pointing at his leg, he immediately understood what she meant and couldn't help but smile mysteriously.
This girl...
It seems you've noticed that your legs are slowly regaining sensation?
Surprisingly, Jiang Yu figured it out on her own without needing any hints.
Sure enough, for someone who has been confined to a wheelchair for many years, no abnormality in her legs could escape her notice.
"If I told you... a miracle happened to me, would you believe me?"
Jiang Yu was like a child who had received a treasure and was showing it off to her best friend. This charming innocence made Xia Che's lips curl down involuntarily. He was clearly keeping her in suspense, but the light in his eyes kept urging him to ask.
This little girl is so cute...
