Chapter 214 She was dying, the emperor cried and admitted his mistake
No matter how fast Xiao Lingzhao ran, he could not be faster than the hairpin that was against his neck and instantly pierced his neck.
Shen Yuanwei was not pretending to scare people, she really wanted to hurt herself. The hairpin in her hand pierced into Xiao Lingzhao's neck almost the moment he took a step forward.
In severe pain, she resolutely pulled out the hairpin and let the bright red blood flow out of the wound.
In the blink of an eye, blood dyed half of her neck red and her snow-white clothes.
This scene made Xiao Lingzhao's eyes bloodshot!
He is crazy.
Why did this happen? He ran over so fast, but why could he only watch his wife's blood splattered everywhere?
He only had time to catch his fallen wife in his arms and fell heavily to his knees.
He touched the blood tremblingly, then pressed Shen Yuanwei's neck hard, and shouted to the old lady with red eyes -
"Mom, go get the doctor! Call Dr. Song!"
The old lady held her trembling legs and turned around hurriedly to call for help.
Xie Junlin's mind also went blank.
He couldn't see anything anymore. All he could see was Shen Yuanwei's blood.
He walked stiffly step by step to Shen Yuanwei.
He slowly bent down and wanted to reach out to touch Shen Yuanwei, but Xiao Lingzhao pushed his hand away.
"Don't touch her!"
Xiao Lingzhao seldom cried, but at this moment, he cried.
He stared at Xie Junlin with red eyes, as if he was showing signs of losing control again.
Shen Yuanwei didn't want him to lose control and do something that would endanger the Xiao family, so she spoke slowly, "Xiao Lingzhao, don't..."
After she said a few words, blood spurted out of her mouth.
Xiao Lingzhao immediately lowered his head when he heard the voice.
Looking at this tragic scene, his tears kept falling. The tears fell on Shen Yuanwei's neck one by one and merged with the glaring blood.
He wanted to reach out and wipe the blood from the corner of Shen Yuanwei's mouth, but he had no extra hands.
He held Shen Yuanwei with one hand and pressed the wound on Shen Yuanwei's neck with the other hand. Blood would spurt out if he loosened his hand. He was afraid that Yuanwei would bleed to death before Dr. Song arrived...
He choked up and said, "Yuan Wei, don't talk, don't talk, wait for Dr. Song to come--"
Shen Yuanwei shook her head slightly.
She spat out blood and said, "It's useless. My hairpin is pierced very deep. Even Dr. Song can't save me. I have to say a few words to you before I die..."
Xiao Lingzhao simply couldn't bear the torture of death.
His usually straight back bent down, he lowered his head and rested his forehead against Shen Yuanwei's forehead, his body was shaking with crying.
"Yuan Wei..."
"You can't die..."
"You can't abandon us..."
"Our children are only two months old. How can they lose their mother when they are so young?"
"I can't lose you either. I haven't been married to you long enough. We agreed to grow old together. This morning when I was dressing you up and drawing your eyebrows, I told you that I would draw your eyebrows for the rest of my life. How can you just leave like that?"
Shen Yuanwei felt pain in her heart from the burning of Xiao Lingzhao's tears.
She loosened the hairpin in her hand and slowly raised her hand to stroke Xiao Lingzhao's cheek.
"I don't want to die either. I'm really afraid of dying. I'm afraid of being buried underground by you lying alone in a coffin. I'm afraid that from here on in the darkness I'll never see the light again, and I won't be able to hear the sounds of the world..."
"I'm really scared..."
"But I have no other choice..."
Xiao Lingzhao was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
He felt the bright red stickiness under his palms and felt regret he had never felt before.
He murmured with sobs.
"If I had known you would be like this, I should have sent you to the palace. No matter whether you were willing to be a concubine or have children, at least you would still be alive. You could still feel the warmth of the sun and hear the voices of the world. You wouldn't have to be buried underground and face the fear of darkness all alone..."
He stared at Shen Yuanwei without blinking, his eyes filled with tears.
"As long as people can live, it is better than death, don't you think?"
Shen Yuanwei shook her head.
Before she could speak, Xie Junlin at the side slowly opened his mouth.
His voice was hoarse and trembling.
"Shen Yuanwei, I didn't mean to force you to die. You've always been a coward and cherish your life. I really didn't think you would seek death..."
"I don't know how things turned out like this. I just suddenly realized that Yuan'er, whom I have loved for four years, is not my own flesh and blood. I am angry at you and Xiao Lingzhao. As this anger ferments, I want to force you to see if I can have another pair of twins..."
"I thought if I used your child to force you, you would compromise. I didn't expect that I would actually force you to death..."
Thinking of what Shen Yuanwei had just said, that she was afraid of dying and being buried underground without seeing the sunlight, Xie Junlin felt heartbroken.
He actually forced a woman who was so afraid of death to choose to die. What on earth did he do?
The guilt and regret in his heart surged over him like a tide, making his vision go dark.
His eyes were red and he murmured in a low voice.
"Shen Yuanwei, you are right. I am too greedy and untrustworthy. I clearly promised to set you free four years ago, but when I saw you and Xiao Lingzhao gave birth to twins, I became jealous again. I wanted you to give birth to two more children..."
"I thought having a child wouldn't be a difficult thing for you. I thought as long as you sacrificed a year, we could have the best of both worlds. How great that would be, so I wanted to be cruel and push you. Who would have thought..."
At this point, tears rolled down Xie Junlin's eyes.
He clenched Shen Yuanwei's fingers and choked.
"I'm really damned. When you wanted to commit suicide, I thought you were just putting it on a show. I never thought you were serious."
"If I had known that you would really commit suicide, if I had known that you were not just trying to scare me, I would have compromised with you a long time ago."
"Really, if I could turn back time, I would definitely not force you today."
"Actually, think about it, there's nothing to be angry about. Yuan'er is not my biological child, but at least I still have a biological son, right? I can just treat it as raising a companion for my biological son, isn't it?"
"If I could do it all over again, I would not leave the palace to look for you today. I would suppress the fact that Yuan'er was carrying a huge force. I would raise your child as my own son. I would not touch you and Xiao Lingzhao at all. We just need to live in peace..."
Shen Yuanwei glanced sideways at Xie Junlin.
It is true that the dead are greatest.
She was about to die, and even the emperor was willing to bow his head and compromise.
But……
She shouldn't die, right?
She was just pretending to fight with Xiao Lingzhao for the sword, because if such a big sword cut her neck, she might die. But if a small hairpin pierced her neck, as long as it avoided the aorta and the main vein, she would not die in a very short time...
As long as the doctor arrives in time and stops her bleeding, she will survive.
But these ancient people didn't know her little tricks.
Xie Junlin only knew that she was really seeking death. Her neck was stabbed and blood was all over her body, and her mouth was bleeding. It looked really miserable, right? It was obvious that she was about to die, right?
If she survives, Xie Junlin will just think that she is lucky and that she is not destined to die...
How could Xie Junlin have imagined that she was so insidious and cunning?
