Chapter 86 [VIP] Best Friend's Shield (Ending + Extra)

Half an hour later, Fu Qingzhou received a strange phone call saying that Nan Yan had been in a car accident.

When Fu Qingzhou heard the news, his first reaction was that someone was playing a prank on him. His heart beat faster and he tried for a long time to calm the tension in his chest. Then he felt a surge of inexplicable anger.

How can such a thing be so easily spread as a rumor?

It’s fake, it must be fake!

But until——

After he saw the photos of the car accident scene...

His originally normal face turned pale in an instant!

His expression was almost distorted, and at that moment, he only felt a sudden loud "bang" in his head, as if he was hit hard by a stick.

He couldn't even hold his phone steady.

How is this possible?

Obviously...it was fine half an hour ago?

She was still standing next to the mirror, smiling at him tenderly, and asking him if the skirt was pretty. How could it be possible...how could it be possible that she was so badly injured that she had to be hospitalized?

They must have cheated him, right? They must have teamed up to cheat him, right? Not funny, this joke is not funny at all!

Fu Qingzhou's eyes turned red almost instantly.

He could no longer hear what the people behind him were saying. At this moment, he just felt like he was suffocating.

It was as if all the blood in his body rushed to his brain at that moment, and an extreme panic and fear surged into his heart, making it impossible for him to think calmly anymore. He didn't care about the marriage or the groom, and he didn't care at all.

The only thought in his mind at this moment was to go to the hospital, to find her, to see her, to see how she was.

Fu Qingzhou rushed to the hospital frantically, he didn't even have time to change his clothes. Fang Wanrou was also with him. The wedding had been temporarily cancelled. Such a big thing had happened, and she was in a bad mood at the moment.

She really didn't expect such an accident to happen. She even wondered, if he hadn't gone to help her get the ring, this accident wouldn't have happened.

Thinking of this, Fang Wanrou inevitably felt a surge of guilt in her heart, and even her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

At this moment, Fu Qingzhou finally understood how Nan Yan felt when he was injured at the construction site. That time, she cried so sadly and desperately in the hospital. Was it the same mood he was in now?

Fu Qingzhou kept praying in his heart. He ran out of breath and finally arrived at the hospital. At the door of the emergency room where Nan Yan was sent, he even saw residual, bright red blood on the ground that had not even completely dried up. She bled a lot and it must have been very painful. She was so afraid of pain, but she bled so much!

Fu Qingzhou felt as if his entire heart was being tightly squeezed. At this moment, he was really scared, so scared that his heartbeat was about to stop. The mist in his eyes was getting thicker and thicker. Please, don't be in any trouble, Nan Yan, please...

In less than half an hour, the lights in the operating room went out.

Several doctors and nurses in white coats came out. Fu Qingzhou saw that their sleeves were stained with blood. The leading doctor asked, "Which of you is the patient's family member?"

Fu Qingzhou stepped forward immediately. Because he was too anxious, his feet slipped and he almost fell. He grabbed the doctor's wrist tightly, and his voice trembled, "I am, I am the patient's family member, I am her boyfriend, tell me, how is she injured, is she okay?"

The doctor shook his head at him, his face heavy, "I'm sorry, we've really tried our best. The patient was seriously injured, with a fractured spine and multiple comminuted fractures throughout his body. In addition, there were varying degrees of internal bleeding in his chest and abdomen. When he was brought here, he was already in a deep coma. So, I'm really sorry..."

At that moment, Fu Qingzhou seemed not to believe his ears. His eyes were red and he seemed unable to stand any longer. He staggered back a few steps and finally hit the stool beside him with a "bang".

He fell heavily to the ground again.

But he seemed to be in so much pain that he had lost consciousness.

"What did you say..."

Fu Qingzhou suddenly looked up at the attending physician in confusion. He felt as if there was something wrong with his ears, otherwise how could he hear the doctor say such words?

The doctor sighed helplessly, shook his head at him, apologized, and continued, "In addition, the deceased also agreed to donate corneas for transplant surgery. Is there a lady named Fang Wanrou among you? You can prepare for this surgery as soon as possible."

As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Fang Wanrou, who was standing there, seemed to be unable to hold back any longer and suddenly burst into tears.

She shook her head vigorously, her face full of guilt, and tears kept falling from the corners of her eyes. The makeup on her face was all smudged, making her look extremely horrible. But no one paid attention to these now. They were just a little confused. Why did she suddenly become so abnormal and cry so desperately?

Fu Qingzhou's expression froze on his face.

His pupils constricted and he turned his head sharply to look at her, as if he had a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Fang Wanrou was still crying.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."

"I lied to you, Qingzhou. My eyes... are not blind at all..."

Fang Wanrou finally cried and broke down as she told the secret. She had been lying to him from the very beginning. She had lied to everyone. She was not blind at all. She did it on purpose and took advantage of Qingzhou's guilt and responsibility because only in this way would he be willing to get back together with her.

But she didn't expect...

She really didn't expect Nan Yan to die, and she didn't expect that she would be willing to donate her cornea to her before she died. For a moment, guilt, remorse, and regret kept surging in her chest. The endless regret and uneasiness almost overwhelmed her. She really didn't expect things to turn out like this!

He would never be able to forgive her in his life, even...even she herself could not forgive herself.

"I'm sorry, Qingzhou, I'm really sorry..."

Fang Wanrou's tears flowed even harder. She staggered forward a few steps and tried to hold Fu Qingzhou's hand, but he shook her off harshly.

Fu Qingzhou suddenly laughed.

He clenched his fingers tightly and let the tears slide down his cheeks. He just felt disgusted at the moment. He felt extremely disgusted when being touched even a little. How stupid was he to be deceived again and again!

He thought about the two months he had spent wrapped up in guilt and responsibility. He would rather have been the one who got hit! He didn't want to suppress his inner thoughts and get engaged to her. In order to take care of her emotions, he even refused to give Nan Yan the last hug on the night before the wedding for her sake. But she said that she had lied to him from the beginning to the end...

What on earth did he do?

How could he be so stingy, so stingy that he wouldn't even hug her? She was obviously crying and crying so aggrievedly, why couldn't he trust her again?

Fu Qingzhou really felt that his emotions were about to collapse, especially when he saw that the person lying on the bed was motionless.

All of a sudden, I felt a darkness in front of my eyes, my knees felt weak, and my whole body seemed to be exhausted, and I fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, someone beside him quickly reached out to help him, "Qingzhou, look at it more positively. The dead cannot be resurrected. I don't think she would want to see you..."

Before he finished speaking, Fu Qingzhou stood up shakily. He waved his hand away expressionlessly and said in a hoarse voice, "Everyone get out."

Seeing him like this, people didn't dare to disturb him.

After all, in the face of death, any words of comfort seem so pale and powerless.

Everyone understood that what he needed most at this moment was to calm down, so they turned around and left without saying anything more.

Fu Qingzhou didn't even know how he walked to her side. He saw her slightly drooping black hair at a glance.

She just lay there quietly, her face so pale that it was almost bloodless. Fu Qingzhou stretched out his trembling fingers and then curled them up. He didn't even dare to touch her now, for fear that he would accidentally break her.

Tears fell uncontrollably.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."

He knelt all the way to the bed, feeling the despair that was surging in his heart almost drowning him. He touched her face carefully.

"It's my fault. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have been angry with you, and I shouldn't have bullied you. You have suffered so much."

"Would you please get up? Get up and scold me, hit me, or let me bear all the pain, please, please don't punish me like this..."

"I haven't hugged you yet, Nan Yan, did you hear what I said? I won't marry Fang Wanrou, I won't marry her, can you open your eyes and look at me?"

"I beg you, open your eyes..."

Fu Qingzhou lowered his head and begged and apologized repeatedly, but the person on the bed did not respond.

He even wondered if it was the same mistake as the last time he made in the hospital, that he had recognized the wrong person, and she was actually fine, nothing had happened to her...

But why? He had waited for so long, but he still didn't hear her hiding behind him, calling his name in that funny voice, then throwing herself into his arms, laughing at him for having recognized the wrong person, and then crying like a fool.

Fu Qingzhou suddenly felt an endless despair in his heart. This was different from the last time he misunderstood her in the hospital. Her fingers had slowly become cold and stiff, and her body temperature was also gradually disappearing. From now on, she would never wake up again, let alone smile at him again...

And he didn't even see her for the last time.

When he thought of this, the despair in Fu Qingzhou's heart grew deeper and deeper, and the mist in his eyes grew more and more.

He gently wiped the blood scab on her face with his fingers, looking at the girl lying quietly on the bed as if she was asleep, he suddenly chuckled.

"I have something funny to tell you. Do you know what I mean? You and Fang Wanrou, together, have at least 400 tricks up their sleeves. How come you only cheated me? It's fine if you cheated me, but she cheated me too. Is it because I was born with a look that's easy to cheat?"

Fu Qingzhou picked up a clean towel from the shelf nearby, soaked it in water again, and wiped the blood off her face over and over again with very gentle movements.

He laughed again as he spoke, but tears fell down his cheeks. He continued, "But I just like being fooled by you. You know I'm stingy. Why can't you be more patient and coax me a few more times? Do you know that when you came to apologize for the first time, I had already softened my heart. I secretly told myself in my heart that as long as you coaxed me a few more times, I would definitely not be angry anymore."

"But I waited for you for so long, for two whole months and you didn't come. I was angry and disappointed. I thought you didn't care about me at all, so I wanted to give up. But on the day when I had completely given up, you came and said you wanted to go with me..."

His voice trembled and became more hoarse. "But... in the end, I rejected you that day. I know that I was too timid. How could I let a girl say such a thing first?"

Fu Qingzhou lowered his head, tears dripping onto Nan Yan's face, and he wiped them away carefully, "Oh, I almost forgot. You said that day that you were going to a faraway city. I actually didn't mean to answer the questions you asked me."

"I don't want you to go at all."

"I also don't want you to meet someone in that place who loves you as much as I do and is willing to be deceived by you."

"I don't want you to love him as much as you love me in the future. It's enough for me to love you alone. So, don't leave, okay, Nan Yan?"

As Fu Qingzhou spoke, his heart ached. He held her hand tightly, and vaguely felt her already stiff fingers suddenly loosen. As if by fate, an exquisite silver ring suddenly fell out of her palm.

It fell to the floor with a ding.

Fu Qingzhou came back to his senses instantly. He lowered his head and saw the blood-stained ring on the ground. It was the one he prepared on the day of the proposal. She had been wearing it all the time and refused to let go until her death...

At this moment, Fu Qingzhou could no longer suppress his emotions. His whole body couldn't help but tremble, and a corner of his heart completely collapsed.

Half a month later.

Half a month had passed since the car accident, and the previous excitement had gradually subsided. When Fu Qingzhou learned of Nan Yan's death that day, he was emotionally devastated for three whole days, but then he slowly calmed down.

After all, matters of life and death are the most unpredictable, and only time can smooth out everything.

Just when everyone thought he had just passed away, Fu Qingzhou suddenly disappeared. Even on the morning of his disappearance, he was still normal. He greeted the employees of the neighboring flower shop enthusiastically, bought a large bouquet of lilies from the owner, and then drove out.

In fact, the night before, Fu Qingzhou called an unfamiliar number on his mobile phone. After the call was connected, a strange, very young man's voice came from the other end.

"Hello, who are you?"

Fu Qingzhou paused and asked him in a hoarse voice, "I want to ask, on October 9, your number called me many times, but I didn't answer it at that time. Do you still remember it?"

The young man scratched his head and thought for a while. He had no recollection of it at first, but when he heard him say October 9, his memory suddenly came back to him. "Oh, I remember! There was a serious car accident in the city center that day. I happened to be there, but it wasn't me who called you. It was a man and a woman. The man was very anxious at the time, almost crying. But he called several times but no one answered. Later, the phone on the other end was turned off..."

Fu Qingzhou subconsciously clenched his fingers, his throat dry as if he had swallowed a handful of sand, "Well... that day, can you tell me in detail what happened to the girl at that time? Was she... very sad at that time?"

"That girl, let me think about it first..."

"It's been so long, I can't quite remember it."

Thinking of the scene at that time, the young man couldn't bear to recall it, fearing that he would have nightmares at night if he thought too much. "It seems so... the girl kept calling someone's name at that time, it seemed to be called something... Zhou something, Zhou Qing?"

"I can't remember it clearly, but it should be the groom's name. She said she was going to be the bride that day, but it was a pity that the phone call was unavailable. The girl also said that she wanted to hear the groom's voice one last time..."

Before he could finish his words, his phone accidentally fell to the ground with a "bang", and the screen shattered into pieces in an instant.

Fu Qingzhou closed her eyes, and kept thinking about what happened that day. How desperate must she have been at that time?

When she was in so much pain and grief, he didn't even answer her last call. What a pity...

After that, Fu Qingzhou disappeared. On the afternoon of the day he disappeared, the police received a report that a car accident had occurred near a river. A white car accidentally ran through the fence and fell into the river...

When the car was later salvaged, someone saw it from a distance. It must be a young man. There was a car full of lilies in the car, but they were all soaked and rotten. What a pity...

On the other hand, Jiang Shaoyan’s condition was not very good after the car accident. Although he survived, his leg injury was very serious, so he might have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

And these were just external injuries. After the car accident, Jiang Shaoyan seemed to have some mental problems. He refused to communicate with others, his depression became very serious, and sometimes his memory would be confused. He always regarded the day of the car accident as the day he and his fiancée went to attend their wedding. Because the blow was too great, the once high-spirited Jiang in memory is now like a withered and rotten wood, and the light in his eyes has disappeared completely.

…

A new group of nurses came to the mental hospital near the suburban villa. They were all young girls who had just graduated from school and they loved to get together and gossip.

For example, they have recently heard a lot about the deeds of the young Mr. Jiang, which are really tragic!

He went to a wedding with his fiancée, but they had a car accident on the way. His fiancée died, and not only did he lose his legs, he even had mental problems. It was so pitiful!

"Who says it's not true? It is said that his fiancée seemed to have died in his arms on the spot. Because the blow was too great, she couldn't bear it and her spirit collapsed..."

"So, Mr. Jiang is really affectionate."

"You may not know this, but I heard that Mr. Jiang has cut his wrists three times this month. Fortunately, he was discovered in time, otherwise he would be dead!"

"I've heard about this, too. It seems like he has a serious case of depression. He refuses to talk or take medicine..."

At this moment, Jiang Shaoyan was completely unaware of anything happening in the outside world and was completely immersed in his own thoughts.

He sat quietly in the wheelchair with a thick photo album on his legs. The afternoon sun was somewhat warm, shining through the window onto the back of his hand. His skin was white and somewhat transparent, and the light blue veins were faintly visible.

He stroked his fingers over the girl in the photo who was smiling so happily, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.
