I bound myself back then, and now it's time to break free of those bonds.
"Vain" is how he defined her. If she were really that materialistic, his heart wouldn't be aching so much.
These pains are all self-inflicted; you can't blame anyone else.
But love is irrational; from the moment she saw him, her heart was captivated.
Since the day Jiang Li proposed leaving, Xiao Yu left in a rage and has never come to see her again, nor has he allowed her to leave the hospital. She has no choice but to stay in the hospital every day.
During the days she hadn't seen him, she felt a peace she had never known before. She thought a lot and came to terms with many things.
She spent most of her time in a daze, sitting motionless and silent by the window, her eyes unfocused and her mind blank.
A year is enough time to change many things.
She suddenly felt old, no longer possessing the fervor of her youth, and lacking the courage to defy societal norms and calmly enjoy the time spent with him.
She couldn't help but question herself again: Did she regret her choice back then?
Everyone must be very disappointed. She didn't cherish all the people who gave her warmth; she destroyed them with her own hands. She never had the courage to call them and ask how they were doing this year.
Although Xiao Yu did not show up, he sent a little girl to take care of Jiang Li. The little girl was named Xiao Yue. She was cute and lively. Jiang Li did not treat this gentle little girl coldly.
night.
As the night deepened and all was quiet, Xiaoyue went to her room to rest. Every night, Xiaoyue would wait until Jiang Li fell asleep before leaving.
Jiang Li stayed in a VIP ward arranged by Xiao Yu, which was the best available. Xiao Yue, as her caregiver, naturally also had her own room.
Hearing the door close, Jiang Li opened her eyes in the darkness, not a trace of sleepiness, only a resolute look in her eyes.
These days, she has never given up the idea of leaving this place.
During the day, Xiaoyue followed her around closely, making it inconvenient for her to do anything. After all, she was someone sent by Xiaoyu, and she couldn't leave wearing a hospital gown. She remembered that there were Xiaoyue's clothes in the bathroom, and they were about the same size.
Jiang Li, supporting her weak body, went to the bathroom to change her clothes quickly. She covered half of her face with a scarf, took off her shoes, and quietly walked out barefoot.
She never expected that everything would go so smoothly.
In the dark room, Xiaoyue opened her eyes, heard the noise outside, and smiled faintly. She hoped that after Miss Jiang Li left this place, her life would return to normal!
Jiang Li walked aimlessly along the road, the biting winter wind slicing across her bare skin like ice blades, chilling her to the bone.
Still recovering from a serious illness, she hadn't gone very far before her body started to give out. She was swaying unsteadily, and several times she had to find a tree or lamppost to lean on to keep her ground steady before she could gather her strength and continue walking.
She has been refusing to eat these past few days. Apart from what Xiao Yuqiang fed her the day before, she has been receiving glucose injections every day, so her nutrition is naturally inadequate.
Now all she wanted was to escape this place as quickly as possible. She was dizzy, her eyelids were so heavy she could barely keep them open, and everything around her was blurry.
Suddenly, a blinding light came from afar, so bright that she could hardly open her eyes.
Lan Qingyue's scenes were finished here. Her face, which had been as pale as a ghost, instantly regained its vitality, and she skipped and hopped towards Liu Yuanyuan, who had a bag in her left hand and a box in her right.
