Doesn't he understand? Every act of tenderness from him will cause the strength she has painstakingly built to crumble.
If he doesn't love her, why bother? Even if he's ruthless and leaves without looking back like he always has, at most she'll just be in so much pain she can't breathe.
But once she gets through this, the pain will stop; she won't feel this way anymore—unable to forget it, and it won't tear at her heart like it does now…
Mo Yanyu ignored her words and insisted, "I'll take you to the hospital."
Ji Yao looked at him intently, wishing she could see some other emotion on his face or in his eyes, even just a little, that could be a reason for her to persevere…
But—no cherry blossoms
There was nothing there; he was always like that, without any particular emotion. (Except in front of Si, he was almost always a flawless person, with no flaws to be found...)
As expected, I still don't love her...
Her heart sank to the deepest point, and the tears she had managed to hold back finally started falling again, like a tap that had been turned on, her face streaked with tears.
Her voice trembled slightly, "Mo Yanyu, why can't you just give me a clean break? If you don't love me, don't keep giving me hope. You're not helping me, you're hurting me. You're making me live a life that's neither human nor ghost, where I can't have what I want, yet I keep deceiving myself because of your occasional kindness, lying to myself that you love me."
Mo Yanyu's eyelashes trembled slightly. She closed her eyes briefly to suppress the emotions churning within her.
"Since you don't plan to be with me, please stop torturing me, okay? Even if I'm heartbroken and can't breathe because of you, and I drown my sorrows in alcohol every night, please don't interfere in my affairs anymore, okay?"
"Please, I'm begging you."
She finally decided to say goodbye to the past, so couldn't he just pretend it never happened and continue living his own life like before?
Why reappear in her life? It's a constant reminder that she once loved someone with all her heart, and still does…
If you don't love her, why can't you let her leave gracefully?
Why go through all this trouble to tear out her heart?
Mo Yanyu's brow twitched, her eyes deep and unfathomable, as her last words kept echoing in his ears.
Please, I'm begging you...
When I beg you…
I beg you…
Beg him?
You don't want to see him anymore, do you?
After a long pause, he turned his eyes away with difficulty and spoke, his voice slightly hoarse, "If I can't do it, then what should I do?"
"Mo Yanyu, what more do you want from me? I've told you I don't love you anymore, I don't want to love you anymore!" Ji Yao clenched her fists, crying uncontrollably again. "Can't you just let me go?"
She had finally decided to let him go, so why was he still tormenting her like this?
“If everything could go back to the beginning,” she said, her face pale, giving him one last deep look, her voice weak yet firm, tinged with regret, “I wish I had never loved you.”
If you don't love, you won't be vulnerable; if you don't love, you won't be hurt by him.
If he didn't love her, he wouldn't have suffered so much unrequited love; if he didn't love her, he wouldn't have tormented himself like this, with every word he said becoming a weapon to hurt her…
...
The next day.
Mo Yanyu stood in the corridor, leaning wearily against the wall. After taking care of Ji Yao all night and dealing with her various emotions, he was exhausted, both physically and mentally. The doctor's words kept echoing in his ears.
"Fortunately, the amount of the ingredient is not large. This is the first time we have encountered a patient with such an allergic reaction to that... We don't know when the patient will wake up, but you must remember that the patient must not take a bath, especially not in hot water, as it will be very uncomfortable."
Mo Yanyu's brow twitched. He didn't know what kind of person would drug her like this, but he knew that all sorts of people existed in this circle.
These kinds of things are impossible to guard against. You might escape it this time, but who knows when the next one will happen?
That's why he didn't want to enter the entertainment industry or study finance—it's too dirty, those people's hearts are too dark!
He was unwilling to go along with their corrupt practices, nor did he want to meddle in other people's business, so he decided to leave it at that. Even if the military was tough and tiring, at least there wouldn't be so many worries.
However… he didn’t expect Yao Yao to experience something like this. He had just called Mo Tingqi and learned from him about a major event that had recently occurred in the capital.
I also understood why Yao Yao was acting so strangely, and why she had even broken with tradition by giving up...
He couldn't express the feelings in his heart, but just seeing Ji Yao's sleeping face made his heart ache.
After being informed by Mo Yanyu that Ji Yao had been admitted to the hospital, Ji Ling rushed there without stopping. His eyes were red, and without thinking twice, he stormed up to Mo Yanyu and yelled at him, "I don't know what happened between you and my sister, but please, I'm begging you, can't you just let my sister go?"
"If you keep torturing her like this, she'll die sooner or later!"
Mo Yanyu's body stiffened, "..."
He never intended to torment her, but all her pain was indeed inflicted by him…
Ji Ling didn't care whether it was his fault or not, and sentenced him to death. He stared at him with a fierce look and said, "You don't know how she has endured all these years. Just when she was finally getting out of the pain of the past, you came back. Your appearance has once again plunged her into the abyss."
