It was the first time that Pei Sui felt like he was listening to some mysterious book, as if he understood nothing and yet understood everything.
Looking at Meng Sheng's empty eyes that seemed to be filled with sadness and pain, his heart skipped a beat, as if some important blood was flowing out.
Once the blood that is enough to sustain his entire life is completely lost, he will become a soulless, walking corpse puppet.
Cui Xueheng...
This name, which he had hated for half his life and with which he had been tormented for so many years, was now ruthlessly and cold-bloodedly pushing him into an abyss where there was no light.
He tried to swallow, clutching Meng Sheng's shoulders, his voice hoarse, and upon closer listening, there was a slight tremor in it, "Shengsheng, listen to me..."
At this moment, the man who had always lived in the clouds, cold and indifferent, and whose demeanor was engraved in his bones and blood, panicked.
Meng Sheng raised her tearful eyes and looked at him, her gaze slowly focusing.
But I also want to penetrate him and land in some empty, endless distance.
She didn't even cry out loud, as if all her emotions were drained away in an instant. The shock and pain just now solidified and then shattered in this eye contact.
Only endless desolation remains.
Her slender shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and a fragile and weak voice escaped from her throat with difficulty, "You...you go back first. I have to...go see my dad."
These were the words she said after trying her best to suppress her remaining rationality.
She did not vent her anger on others, did not question them, and did not cry bitterly.
Like a cold breeze, it pushed him out little by little.
After saying that, she slowly turned around, without using much effort or intention, and pulled her arm out of his hand.
Pei Sui's throat choked, "Shengsheng..."
She didn't know if she heard the very soft voice, she just asked Fu Chen, "Then...can I go see my dad now?"
Fu Chen's eyebrows moved slightly, and he sighed softly, looking at her with pity, "Yes. But don't cry, calm down first. When Uncle Meng wakes up and sees you like this, he will be distressed."
"He needs to be checked when he wakes up, so he shouldn't get too excited. I'll be right outside. Call me if you need anything. Go ahead."
Meng Sheng suppressed his sobs and nodded, "Yeah."
As she took a step, she caught sight of Pei Sui's figure out of the corner of her eye. After hesitating for only two seconds, she quickly walked into the ward.
Didn't look back at him.
Pei Sui held his breath.
My heartbeat seemed to stop.
Those almond-shaped eyes, which were always calm and could not reflect the sorrows or joys of the world, were now filled with huge waves. There was pure, undisguised fear and panic in them, so strong that it almost overflowed.
The originally clear, bright and beautiful figure now became blurry and ethereal.
The corridor suddenly became quiet and silent.
It was so quiet that he could hear his own heartbeat, "boom, boom, boom," but it was dripping with the blood of a tearing heart.
A cool breeze blew over, and Pei Sui felt that the blood in his body had lost its temperature and cooled down at a rapid rate.
Suddenly, they were the only two people left in the empty corridor.
Fu Chen's expression also turned cold. He glanced at Pei Sui indifferently and said sarcastically, "Your Pei family is really well-educated and has a big face. It really opened my eyes.
No wonder Uncle Meng has always disapproved of Shengsheng and you. If she marries you and has a mother-in-law like your mom, won't she be tortured to death after marriage?!
Pei Sui, if you are a man, you should set Sheng Sheng free!"
Pei Sui was slightly startled.
Set her free.
No, not really.
His thoughts were slowly pulled back by the kite string, and he answered this in his heart.
After his thoughts came back to normal, the panic and tension in his eyes had disappeared, and he returned to his usual indifferent demeanor.
At least, she couldn't lose face in front of her love rival, Fu Chen.
He didn't want to give Fu Chen a chance to be proud.
He shifted his gaze slightly, meeting Fu Chen's in mid-air, without flinching, "Who are you to ask me to let go of her hand? Are you a family member of a doctor or a patient? Or a friend?"
Fu Chen sneered, but his eyes were cold. "Heh, you can't even control your own mother, so why are you still holding on to Shengsheng? Are you afraid that your mother won't be able to piss her father off to death? Now that her father has been rescued, there is a high probability that he will have a stroke. Do you think she will hate you? Will she blame you?"
She can let you go calmly now because she is well-educated. She is not as mean as your Pei family. You two are not suitable at all. It is better to..."
"Whether she and I are suitable for each other is not your turn to comment. It has nothing to do with you!"
It cannot be denied that Pei Sui's heart was deeply pierced by his words.
Although he appeared calm and indifferent at the moment, maintaining his usual demeanor, only he knew how unconfident his words were.
He understood Meng Sheng's personality and character.
There was no way she could just brush aside what happened today and let bygones be bygones.
His heart was filled with a bowl of sweetness brought back from Japan, which was overflowing, and every drop was golden joy.
But now, for some reason, the bottom of the bowl suddenly leaked, and the sweet juice dripped down, and no matter how he covered it, he couldn't stop it.
The somewhat empty chest was suddenly filled with the early summer draft, cold and heavy.
My heart ached from the weight.
