At this moment, she was like a lifeless doll, dressed but expressionless.
There wasn't even the sadness that should have been there.
She didn't say a word from beginning to end. After getting dressed, she just sat there blankly.
He remained silent and motionless.
Ji Huaishen looked at her pale face and her swollen, bitten lips, and felt inexplicably irritated.
He lost control.
He knew she was afraid of the dark.
She must have been very scared just now, right?
He moved to look at her, but saw that she instinctively looked away, her eyes filled with fear, as if she were very scared.
Now, she must be even more resistant to him.
Ji Huaishen tugged at his dry lips, his heart aching terribly, a pain as sharp as a knife cutting into him, making it hard to breathe.
How could he...?
It's out of control.
"You can leave now."
His tone was calm, his voice hoarse, suppressing intense emotions.
Mu Xiaocheng heard his words but remained silent, stumbling out of bed.
She kept her eyes fixed straight ahead and slowly walked towards the door.
Perhaps due to excessive grief, or perhaps due to physical reasons, her steps were slow and unsteady, which was heartbreaking.
For a fleeting moment, Ji Huaishen wanted to rush forward without hesitation, hug her, and tell her not to be afraid.
But he was afraid.
Perhaps, what she fears most right now is him.
He leaned against the wall, somewhat dejected, his gaze fixed on her slender back, filled with restraint and heartache.
Mu Xiaocheng walked to the door and opened it.
But Lu Chi was standing at the door.
When Lu Chi saw her come out, and in this state, he was momentarily stunned.
What just happened?
Was Xiao Chengcheng really bullied?
He was about to ask a question when the little girl in front of him suddenly fainted.
Lu Chi caught her quickly and immediately picked her up in his arms.
He glanced at Ji Huaishen inside the room. Although he didn't know what had happened, he still said, "Ji Huaishen, you've got guts."
How could you bear to bully such a rare and beautiful girl?
Are you sick?
Upon hearing Lu Chi's words, Ji Huaishen gave a bitter smile, leaned against the wall with his legs bent, looking melancholy and lonely.
Heh~
That's just the kind of person he is.
—
It was raining heavily outside.
The cold wave swept across the entire country of M like a hurricane.
Lu Chi carried Mu Xiaocheng and quickly drove to the hospital.
The doctor examined her and found nothing seriously wrong.
It is said that the coma may have been caused by an overreaction in personal emotions and psychology.
Lu Chi stood by her bedside, looking at her pale face, and the marks on her neck and lips. In an instant, he seemed to understand something.
She and Ji Huaishen were in the house just now...
Did Ji Huaishen force himself on her?
Otherwise, she wouldn't have done that.
Did the two of them argue because of him?
But this didn't seem like an argument; it was more like... mutual torment.
Looking at Mu Xiaocheng lying on the hospital bed, such a beautiful girl, yet she has become like this.
The moment he saw her, it seemed that her eyes were devoid of any light, empty.
It's as if there's no hope left for this world.
She was clearly such a bright and lively girl.
Lu Chi felt somewhat agitated.
I really want to smoke.
He left the ward, asked Shuyang to buy him a pack of cigarettes, and stood alone at the stairwell, smoking for a long time.
Until the rain outside stopped.
He put the unfinished cigarette into his pocket and started walking back.
