“Beep, beep, beep…”

The monitor emits one prompt tone after another, and each time it sounds, it seems to vibrate on a person's weak heart.

The entire VIP ward was immersed in an extremely solemn atmosphere.

Just now.

Sheng Qi was once again given a critical illness notice by the doctor.

Since the cruise ship accident, the doctor has come down countless times in the past year, but the situation this time is more serious than any previous one.

With burns covering up to 70% of his body and multiple organs failing, he is fortunate to have survived until now.

This critical illness notice is most likely the last one.

Sheng Qi suddenly became surprisingly energetic. He explained everything word for word, and after sending the lawyer and everyone else away, he sighed slightly, adjusted his state, and tried to appear relaxed.

Then, he mustered up the courage, turned his head and looked at his sister who was already crying with red eyes beside the bed.

"Yuanyuan, stop crying, okay?" He chuckled soothingly, "You've cried like a little kitten."

Sheng Yuan's tears flowed even more violently.

But in order not to worry her brother, she raised her hand to wipe her face, and said obediently while wiping: "Well, I won't cry."

She said this nicely, but the more she wiped her tears, the more they came, until she was at a loss and her movements became clumsy.

Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he covered his mouth and choked.

She realized that separation was approaching.

Sheng Qi's eyes almost instantly moistened by his sister's sobs. He tried his best to endure it and prevent his pretended calmness from almost collapsing.

He said softly, "Talk to your brother for a while."

In his final moments, Sheng Qi said a lot of things. He talked about the past.

"Brother Ayi and Brother Axi look alike. When they were young, their favorite game was to wear the same clothes and shoes, keep silent, and let the servants guess who was who. However, no one has ever been able to guess accurately, even Uncle San and Aunt San have been fooled several times."

Sheng Qi smiled and said, "Only Yuanyuan is very good. She can always tell it at a glance. Remember?"

Sheng Yuan nodded: "Remember."

Sheng Qi continued, "When Yuanyuan was seven years old, she lost three dolls that she loved very much. She couldn't find them no matter how hard she looked. In the end, she cried sadly."

"Actually, it wasn't lost. The three of us planned to bury a time capsule in a corner of the yard. The instruction manual of the time capsule said that we should put the things we think are most important in it, and then dig them out after ten years. This way, these things will never disappear from this world."

"Brother A-xi said that Yuanyuan loved those dolls so much that he wanted to help Yuanyuan bury them so that the dolls can accompany Yuanyuan for the rest of her life."

"At that time, Brother Yi laughed at me and Brother Xi for being childish and believing all kinds of nonsense, but he ended up stealing Yuan Yuan's doll. Brother Yi is always like this, saying one thing and doing another, but doing the other, isn't he?"

Sheng Yuan burst into tears: "The time capsule will soon be ten years old. Brother, come with me to dig them out."

Sheng Qi fell silent and did not give his sister an answer.

Because he can't do it.

——The fire took away all their loved ones.

To this day, Sheng Qi is still extremely grateful that he managed to protect his sister from the fire.

But soon, very soon he will not be able to protect her anymore.

He was once a high-spirited, cheerful young man, but now he can only lie on a hospital bed, with various tubes inserted into his body and his festering skin wrapped in white gauze. He doesn't even have the strength to raise his hand to wipe away his sister's tears.

I'm worried.

The fire was so serious that the waiter who led them would rather sacrifice his own life than drag everyone else to death in the fire.

Sheng Qi was really worried.

My sister is still so young.

From now on, she will be the only one left to face all the unknown dangers that will come.

Sheng Qi's chest was filled with strong reluctance, and he looked at his sister with reluctance and pain: "Yuanyuan, what should I do? Brother is really worried about you..."

* Sheng Yuan lost her parents when she was fifteen, as well as four elders who loved her and her two brothers.

And a year later, at the age of sixteen, she once again lost her only relative in the world.

The entire sky was covered with dark gray clouds, and the raindrops fell so densely that it made it hard to breathe.

"Miss Sheng Yuan is missing!"

Before the funeral ended, someone discovered that Sheng Yuan was missing, and they searched the entire funeral home but couldn't find her.

…

In the taxi, the driver looked several times at the strange passenger in the back seat through the rearview mirror.

It's strange indeed.

The girl was soaked by the rain. She opened the car door and swiped two thousand yuan right away. Her pale lips moved slightly as she whispered an address in Chaohe District.

The driver accepted such a big order and didn't care whether the passenger was surprised or not. He was even considerate enough to turn on the heater and then took out a clean towel from the locker and handed it over.

After about an hour's journey, the navigation showed that we had arrived at our destination.

The driver looked outside at the deserted place and said hesitantly, "Girl, are you sure you want to get off here?"

"Yes, here it is. Thank you."

The person in the back seat got out of the car, the door was closed, and an unopened towel was quietly placed on the seat.

…

This is an area waiting to be developed, and many buildings are still in their initial stages of construction.

Probably because the project had not yet started, there were signs prohibiting approaching everywhere, and the place was empty.

Looking around, there was no one in sight.

It was foggy and rainy, and a cool breeze was blowing.

Sheng Yuan hugged her arms tightly and walked silently along the path.

Walked for a while.

She saw a colorfully painted cartoon iron gate. Unlike the unfinished buildings just now, behind the iron gate was an entire theme park that was almost completed.

The three brothers of the Sheng family once agreed to give their younger sister an entire anime-themed amusement park on the day she turns 18.

The access control system uses electronic palm print recognition. Sheng Yuan put his hand on the recognition screen, and the access control system opened with two "beeps".

The power was not turned on here, and it was pitch black, looking like an abandoned and dangerous amusement park in a horror movie.

But Sheng Yuan was not afraid at all.

She walked past the carousel, roller coaster, Ferris wheel, spinning teacup... Every time she walked past one, she could see her name designed in a cute cartoon shape.

To undertake this great undertaking, the three brothers, apart from seeking help from some professionals from their elders, all the expenses were borne by themselves.

For no other reason.

Just to give my sister a coming-of-age gift together.

But at that time they probably didn't think that they would never have such a day.

——The girl’s hoarse and sorrowful cry was heard from the empty amusement park.

How can it not hurt?

Sheng Yuan stroked the lines of her name, her fingertips turned white, and it hurt so much that she almost lost her breath.

She curled up on the cold chair, hoping that this was just a nightmare and nothing would have happened when she woke up.

Having not closed her eyes for many days, Sheng Yuan cried and fell into great fatigue, and her consciousness gradually became unclear.

She didn't know that she had a high fever at the moment, she just felt very cold.

While she was half asleep, she fell into a warm embrace.

“…”

Shi Yan frowned, wrapped the girl tightly with his coat, let her lie on his back, stood up, and left with her on his back.
