Chapter 217 Let's Break Up
Jiang Ruzhen hurriedly held the person in her arms, and after a chaotic rescue, Shen Shuxin woke up and hugged Jiang Ruzhen, bursting into tears.
"Mom, what should we do? He's so young, he did it to save me..."
"It's okay, it's okay, everything will be alright. We must believe that he will definitely get through this."
Jiang Ruzhen also felt a pang of heartache, unable to believe that such misfortune would befall her again.
After Shen Shuxin woke up, she stayed in Xie Hui's ward to take care of him, and Jiang Ruzhen couldn't persuade him to stay any longer.
She turned and left the ward, intending to go to the cafeteria to get some porridge. No matter how heartbroken she was, she still needed to eat.
As soon as she stepped out of the ward, she saw Jin Sheng and Xiao He still waiting for her at the door.
"Thank you so much, senior brothers, for today."
Jiang Ruzhen bowed solemnly to the two of them to express her gratitude. The two of them flinched, and Xiao He helped her up and gave Jiang Ruzhen a sharp tap on the forehead.
"Junior Sister, don't stand on ceremony with us senior brothers. Our eldest brother said that we belong to the same sect, which is equivalent to being in the same faction."
Mutual help is a basic principle, but as for your godson's injury, there's nothing we can do.
“I know you won’t interfere in the karma of mortals. I’m already very grateful that you helped me save my daughter, and I won’t ask for anything more,” Jiang Ruzhen said.
"It's good that you understand this principle." Jin Sheng and Xiao He were here to explain this to Jiang Ruzhen.
Seeing that she was receptive, the two left with peace of mind.
Jiang Ruzhen went to the cafeteria to get food, and when she came back, she found that Xie Hui had woken up.
He and Shen Shuxin were chatting and laughing, and judging from his expression, he probably didn't know what was wrong with his leg.
"Xin Xin, I already told you I'm fine, why are you still crying? Women are really made of water, if you don't stop, I'm really going to be washed away by your tears."
"Xie Hui, promise me you'll take good care of yourself." Shen Shuxin couldn't hold back her tears, which fell down her cheeks.
Xie Hui's leg was bandaged. He struggled to raise his arm to wipe Shen Shuxin's tears. Seeing that there were still a few centimeters between them, Shen Shuxin was afraid that he would strain himself, so she quickly put her face under his big hand.
"I'm not crying anymore, I'm not crying anymore, please don't move around!"
Shen Shuxin raised her hands and pressed them against Xie Hui's shoulders, looking somewhat flustered.
"Xin Xin, didn't you say my leg would get better soon? Why are you so worried?"
Xie Hui suddenly noticed that Xin Xin's expression was off, and asked her with some confusion.
"That's right, that's exactly it. Your leg will be healed soon, and you'll be able to run and jump all the time. But the doctor said you can't move around too much during the recovery period. You should lie down and rest."
"Okay." Xie Hui had a sudden suspicion, but he lay down without showing any emotion and started chatting with Shen Shuxin about other topics.
"Xin Xin, I formally apologize to you. I know I was wrong for all my previous bad attitudes and behaviors towards you."
I have deeply reflected on my mistakes, please forgive me?
"Yes, I forgive you. Xie Hui, you better take good care of yourself. I'm waiting for you to recover so we can get engaged!" Shen Shuxin forced back her sadness and smiled at Xie Hui.
"Okay, it's a deal." Xie Hui held Shen Shuxin's hand, his smile warm and sunny.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Xie Hui drifted off to sleep.
Jiang Ruzhen then went into the room and called Shen Shuxin over for dinner.
Shen Shuxin tucked Xie Hui in and sat with Jiang Ruzhen to eat porridge. Jiang Ruzhen noticed that Shen Shuxin looked distracted and kept stirring the porridge in her bowl with her spoon, but she couldn't eat.
He sighed inwardly and tried to distract her.
Should we tell Xie Hui's mother about his situation?
"No need. His mother isn't in good health, so I'll stay here and take care of her." Shen Shuxin refused without even thinking.
Jiang Ruzhen respected Xin Xin's decision. She drank a small bowl of porridge, and Shen Shuxin drank a few mouthfuls.
Jiang Ruzhen wanted to stay with Shen Shuxin at the hospital to take care of her, but Shen Shuxin insisted that she go home and rest.
Jiang Ruzhen had no choice but to go home. The next day, she got up early and went to a restaurant to buy lots of delicious food to visit the patient at the hospital.
Before I even reached the ward door, I saw several nurses gathered around, chattering amongst themselves.
I could also hear a loud argument coming from inside.
Jiang Ruzhen rushed to the door and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
When the nurses saw her coming, they quickly made way for her.
"Family member, please go in and try to persuade the patient. He says he'd rather die than have his limb amputated..."
Jiang Ruzhen's heart skipped a beat. Was she really going to take the worst possible step?
She quickly opened the door and went inside, just in time to see Shen Shuxin and Xie Hui locked in a fierce standoff.
Shen Shuxin seemed to be provoked and shouted excitedly, "Xie Hui, are you even a man? Amputation is fine, we just need to save our lives, why are you being so stubborn?"
"I don't want amputation." Xie Hui shook his head blankly.
"Why, why is this happening?" Shen Shuxin was going crazy.
Early in the morning, the doctors came to check on Xie Hui and, seeing that he was asleep, explained the situation to Shen Shuxin.
"The patient's condition is not good. Overnight, the nerves we reattached have already started to die. We suggest we don't wait any longer and have the limb amputated!"
Shen Shuxin trembled all over, her hand trembling as she was about to sign the document, when Xie Hui on the bed suddenly opened his eyes and calmly said...
"I don't want an amputation."
Then the doctor and Shen Shuxin took turns trying to persuade Xie Hui, but he remained unyielding, repeating only four words over and over.
"I don't want an amputation."
At first, Shen Shuxin could talk to him properly, but in the end, she broke down and cried, begging Xie Hui to save her life.
But Xie Hui seemed to be possessed, refusing to listen to anything.
The doctors shook their heads and left, leaving only Shen Shuxin still pleading desperately.
Jiang Ruzhen brought the lunchbox to the two of them, sat down calmly, and said.
"We can discuss the issue of amputation later. Let's eat first."
Jiang Ruzhen's mind was in turmoil. She had been spending the last two days with her seniors from the Ninth Special Operations Bureau and had begun to feel a sense of awe towards some natural phenomena that seemed beyond reality.
He also began to explore and ponder the spiritual spring space that had appeared out of nowhere.
Will using the spiritual spring to heal Lu Mingzheng also incur some karmic consequences?
Just like this major conflict she had with the Lu family, if she hadn't healed Lu Mingzheng's burns, he wouldn't have returned to the army.
He won't go back to the army, and his family won't hate her so much.
They may have already been officially together, receiving blessings and congratulations from the Lu family.
Is everything in this world truly predetermined, like every sip and every bite?
Every cause has its effect; she is now suffering the consequences.
The price of saving him was leaving him; the two could never be together.
She felt somewhat lost. If it were her usual self, she would definitely have used the spiritual spring water to save Xie Hui directly.
But now she's a little hesitant, unsure if it might lead to even worse consequences.
She didn't sleep much last night, she kept thinking about this problem.
"Xin Xin, let's break up."
Suddenly, Xie Hui calmly said something that shocked Jiang Ruzhen and Shen Shuxin on the spot.
It took Shen Shuxin a while to react. "What did you say? Xie Hui, you want to break up with me?"
