His pleasant masculine scent overwhelmed her senses, and Feng Guang's heart pounded uncontrollably. She froze, reaching out to grasp the hem of his shirt. Through his chest, she heard his strong heartbeat. After a long silence, she finally managed to utter, "Han Qi...you...you are......"
"I like you." Unexpectedly, yet somehow, he readily admitted it. Not only that, he tightened his grip on her, a hint of regret lurking in his steady voice, "This kind of feeling shouldn't belong to me, after all..."
After all, his days are numbered.
The moment she learned that he wasn't Han Chen, she should have kept her distance from him. But at this moment, she didn't want to leave his embrace, nor did she want to run out of this calm hospital room. She didn't yet know if her feelings for him were love, but she knew that he was a man who evoked pity.
"Perhaps there is still a way..." Feng Guang murmured.
Han Qi let out a relieved chuckle, taking the words as just a way to comfort himself. "Yes, maybe we'll find a way."
His gaze remained fixed on the pot of baby's breath, and he sighed softly to himself. He did not tell the flower language of the baby's breath.
I'm willing to play a supporting role, just to be by your side.
This is the meaning of baby's breath, and that's what he originally intended to do.
The topic of his "I like you" ended without a conclusion. Feng Guang sat in the car on her way home, feeling even heavier than when she arrived. Although she had figured out the relationship between Han Chen and Han Qi, she thought it would have been better not to know, to avoid being upset now.
There's no way.
The system's voice suddenly rang in her mind. She was stunned for a moment before she realized what the system was talking about. Back in the hospital, she had asked the system if there was a way to make Han Chen and Han Qi live at the same time. At that time, the system did not answer, and now its answer made her feel disappointed.
Unwilling to give up, she pressed on, "Is there really no other way?"
"Only one of Han Qi and Han Chen can survive." The system's tone was extremely cold and indifferent. "The host wants to achieve the best of both worlds, but many things in the world don't go as planned."
Feng Guang remembered what Han Qi had told her. He had said that things in the world don't always go as planned, but people always have a bit of wishful thinking, and she was no exception. She even came up with a solution, "If I said I'd use points..."
"This service is not available." The system bluntly shattered her hopes.
Feng Guang looked at the scenery rushing past the car window, feeling momentarily lost and at a loss.
She didn't want Han Qi to die, nor did she want Han Chen to die. Neither of them had done anything wrong, so she hoped they could both live. She didn't know if this was greed, but she didn't want anyone around her to die.
At the Xia family mansion, Xia Chao, who was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, saw his daughter return looking unwell. He put down the newspaper and asked with concern, "What's wrong with our fearless eldest daughter of the Xia family? Are you sick?"
Feng Guang glanced at him indifferently and went straight upstairs.
Xia Chao asked, "You accepted Miss Jin's invitation to the banquet?"
She stopped on the stairs, thought for a moment, and nodded. "That's true."
"Then don't break your promise. Remember to dress up nicely and don't embarrass me."
