"Don't die, don't die..." Yan Muxue murmured to herself, but her feet staggered and she almost fell.
Yan Muxue lifted Gu Liyan slightly, knowing she was moving slowly. Rain and tears streamed down her face. "Little Li, just bear with it a little longer. I'll take you down the mountain to find a doctor right away... right away. Hang in there—ah..."
Yan Muxue's legs gave way, and she fell to the ground, splashing dirty water all over herself. Before she could even feel the pain, Yan Muxue struggled to her feet, repeatedly apologizing, "Xiao Li, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
Yan Muxue sat weakly on the ground, holding Gu Liyan in her arms. She raised her hand to stroke Gu Liyan's cold cheek, wiping away the raindrops that wouldn't come off. Yan Muxue couldn't help but cry, "Xiao Li, I'm sorry, I'm so useless..."
If only she could be a little braver
If she possessed miraculous healing abilities
If she is understanding and takes good care of him
if……
There are no "what ifs." She couldn't have been so perfect, she couldn't have helped Gu Liyan, and instead, she dragged him down time and time again...
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." Yan Muxue hugged Gu Liyan and cried.
She had no strength left; she had no strength left to carry him down the mountain, no strength left to save him!
Yan Muxue hugged Gu Liyan in despair, listening to the sounds of wind and rain around her, as if everything was as calm as ever.
Suddenly, Yan Muxue laughed, hugging Gu Liyan tightly and saying frantically, "It's okay, since I can't save you, I'll stay with you..."
Da da da—
Just then, footsteps came from behind, and Gu Yan, Gu Li, and Gu Changyuan quickly caught up with them.
Upon seeing the three of them arrive, Yan Muxue panicked and quickly hugged Gu Liyan tightly in her arms, looking at the three of them nervously, "What, what are you going to do?"
Gu Yan stopped in front of Yan Muxue. Seeing Gu Liyan's pale face, he looked guilty and was about to step forward when Yan Muxue pointed at him angrily and shouted, "You murderer! You're not allowed to come any closer! You're not allowed to touch Xiao Li!"
"I..." Upon hearing Yan Muxue's words, Gu Yan trembled and immediately stopped in his tracks, looking at Gu Liyan with a guilty expression, not daring to take another step forward.
Seeing this, Gu Li stepped forward and said gently, "Girl, it's so late and it's raining so hard. Where are you taking Xiao Li? Leave him to me, and we'll go back and figure something out."
She said she wanted to snatch Gu Liyan away from him.
Yan Muxue held Gu Liyan tightly in her arms, glaring at Gu Yan and coldly saying, "I don't need your help! You all want to harm Xiao Li just like him! I won't hand Xiao Li over to you!"
Gu Li was taken aback and hurriedly waved his hand, "Girl, you've misunderstood, we're not..."
Gu Changyuan interrupted Gu Li, stepped forward and threatened, "Do you think the doctor down the mountain can save him? We can save Xiao Li. If you don't want him to die, hand him over to us immediately!"
Gu Li scratched his head awkwardly, thinking to himself, "Chang Yuan is really something, threatening people like that, no wonder they won't agree!"
Yan Muxue glanced at Gu Liyan, then looked at Gu Changyuan and asked weakly, "You, can you really save him?"
Gu Changyuan stepped forward and snatched Gu Liyan from Yan Muxue's hands without saying a word. Then he turned around and said with a serious expression, "I am his senior brother. I will not watch him die, nor will Master and Uncle!"
Yan Muxue looked at Gu Changyuan and pleaded, "Please, you must save him..."
Gu Changyuan nodded. "Don't worry, I will..."
Before Gu Changyuan could finish speaking, Yan Muxue fell to the ground, splashing water everywhere.
Gu Changyuan was stunned for a moment, and Gu Li, who was standing next to him, hurriedly went up to help Yan Muxue up and checked her over. "She's alright, just overworked, nothing serious."
Turning her head, she glanced at Gu Liyan, her gaze hardening slightly. She subconsciously swallowed and looked at Gu Yan. "Now I finally understand why you hurt Xiao Li, but how could Xiao Li be…"
Gu Li hesitated, then sighed repeatedly. Gu Yan also sighed and waved his hand helplessly, saying, "Forget it, let's talk about it when we get back. There's still time to save Xiao Li!"
Gu Changyuan glanced at the two of them, then looked at Gu Liyan, whose face was exquisitely beautiful, in his arms, and seemed to be deep in thought—
In a dream
Gu Liyan, dressed in white, stood facing her from afar. Seeing him smile at her, Yan Muxue was overjoyed and was about to run up to him when, unexpectedly, a man in black suddenly appeared behind her. The man in black pierced Gu Liyan's chest with a sword, and blood instantly stained his spotless white clothes.
In an instant, thunder roared and a violent storm raged. Yan Muxue saw that the man in black was Gu Yan. After Gu Liyan fell to the ground, he walked towards her, sword in hand, getting closer and closer—
"ah!"
Yan Muxue sat bolt upright in bed, drenched in cold sweat, her chest heaving, her face filled with grief. "Xiao Li, Xiao Li..."
"Xiao Li is not dead."
Yan Muxue was taken aback. She looked up and saw Gu Changyuan sitting to the side, leisurely making tea.
"You...you're saying Xiao Li isn't dead?" Yan Muxue looked at Gu Changyuan in disbelief.
"I'm telling the truth, he really isn't dead." Gu Changyuan glanced at Yan Muxue and said calmly.
Before Yan Muxue could even feel excited upon hearing Gu Changyuan's words, she sensed the cold malice in his gaze and couldn't help but tremble.
However, after thinking about it, she still mustered up the courage to ask, "Has Xiao Li woken up yet? Where is he? And where am I?"
Looking around the room, Yan Muxue noticed that the decorations and furnishings were very different from Gu Liyan's room, and instead resembled the guest rooms of an inn in a small town at the foot of the mountain.
Gu Changyuan glared at Yan Muxue with an annoyance, and said indifferently with a look of disdain, "Can't you tell? This is my room!"
