"Xiao Li, breakfast is ready!"
The smile on Xia Linyin's face froze, and the tray in her hands fell to the ground, spilling milk everywhere.
She struggled to walk towards the bed, and when she reached the bedside, she could no longer support her swaying body and collapsed to the ground.
The incomparably handsome man lay peacefully on the bed, rose petals falling on his silver hair, his beautiful lips, his slender body, and the blood flowing from his wrists.
The blood flowing from the wound stained the sheets dark. He held a crescent blade in his hand, and his other uninjured hand rested on his abdomen, with a painting under his hand.
It's a painting of Xia Linyin sitting in a chair, holding lilies and smiling gently. The painting has the words—
"I've always thought that my sister looks beautiful when she cries. I can't forget the first time she cried for me. It was the first time someone shed tears for my death, so I always liked to tease her until she cried. But suddenly I think that my sister looks even more beautiful when she smiles than when she cries. So I won't be able to accompany my sister in the next game. Without Xiao Li by my side, my sister must take good care of herself."
"Sister, put away your crescent blade, live on, and we will meet again."
"—Xiao Liliu."
As you wish, I will no longer follow...
The drawing paper fluttered from Xia Linyin's hands, and a heart-wrenching scream echoed throughout the room, "Ahhh—"
Xia Linyin threw herself onto Xiao Li's body, grabbing his collar and crying out, "Bastard, wake up!"
The tearing sound seemed to be mixed with blood. Xia Linyin lay on his body, crying bitterly. It felt as if a large piece of her heart had been ripped out, and the pain was so intense that she could hardly breathe.
She cried for an unknown amount of time, until her voice was hoarse. Xia Linyin pressed a kiss to Xiao Li's cold lips, her tears falling onto his handsome face.
Suddenly, a large group of heavily armed people rushed in, grabbed Xia Linyin and pulled her away from Xiao Li. In a daze, Xia Linyin only heard words such as "safe," "suspect," and "hostage rescued."
"Xiaoyin, Xiaoyin! Are you alright?"
Xia Linyin stared blankly at Shangguan Xin and the others. All she could see were blurry figures, and the voices around her seemed to come from another dimension.
"Xiaoyin, Xiaoyin..."
Suddenly, everything went black before her eyes, and she collapsed straight to the ground.
