Chapter 148 She Said She Loved Him for the First Time
*
The woman lay on the hospital bed, her hair soaked with cold sweat and tears from the severe pain, sticking to her face in a messy manner.
The beautiful and elegant face now looked in disarray.
She was in so much pain that she was about to die. She raised her head tremblingly with all her strength, weakly grasped the corner of the white coat of the only doctor standing beside her, and begged:
"Kill me alone... please?? Please don't kill... my child...
My baby hasn’t opened his eyes yet… to see the world…”
Please...
Don't kill my baby...
Baby... bloom your beautiful life...
Mommy loves you... I love you so much...
Baby……
goodbye……
Ji Ran suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
She breathed rapidly, and looked around in a panic at the unfamiliar environment. Then she realized that she was at Jiang's house, and that she had probably fallen asleep on this beach chair...
Ji Ran slowly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and tried to calm himself down.
Just... what was that?
Is it just a dream?
But the woman in the dream was clearly...
The foreign body in Ji Ran's hand was hitting her nerves. She turned over the wooden photo frame in her hand and looked at the strange yet intimate smiling face on it...
So what does that dream just now mean?
Could it be... Mom...
Was he really murdered?
His nails had unknowingly sunk deeply into his palms, and Ji Ran stared at his mother in the photo frame with a frown.
How to do?
My heart suddenly ached so much that it felt like it was about to break, and my brain was almost fainting from the burning of raging flames. The festering emotions were like a crumbling volcano growing on the center of the earth, and it seemed that once it erupted, the whole world would collapse completely.
The next second, she clutched the photo frame, stood up, and rushed out the door.
The only clear thought left in her mind was that she wanted to go home.
I ran into the hall along the same route I came.
"Miss Ji?" A maid called her from behind, "Where are you going so late?"
Ji Ran didn't reply, but just ran outside.
"Eh? Miss Ji! It's so late. I'll contact the driver to take you..." The maid's voice was getting farther and farther away in the background.
Ji Ran felt that she had run a long way and finally reached the main road outside the Jiang family's residence, but she suddenly lost her direction.
Looking at this dark road that seems to have no end in sight either way.
Just like the portrayal of her life at this moment...
It seems that no matter which direction I go, I will feel equally lonely and desperate.
She held on to her last bit of rationality, held on to the last glimmer of hope, took out her cell phone and tried to hail a taxi.
But I found that my phone was out of battery.
In an instant, all the strength in her body was drained. She squatted weakly on the curb and buried her head in her arms. The collapse was like the rising tide of the night, silently drowning her heart. She let the dim street lights cast their cold beams of light at her.
Why is it... so uncomfortable?
My eyes felt dry as if they were burned, and my lungs seemed to be filled with mud and sand without any gaps, leaving only a tiny bit of space for my pitiful and rapid breathing.
so cold...
She clenched her arms and pinched her skin tightly.
It seems that the more pain one feels physically, the less severe the knife in one's heart will cut...
...Qi Mu.
She whispered again in her mind the name she had been missing all day, the only name that sustained her soul.
But he didn't have the strength to open or close his mouth.
Suddenly, the cold body was gently wrapped in soft, warm cloth.
Ji Ran slowly raised his head and met those deep dark red eyes. His empty heart was suddenly filled.
He looked at her, the pain in his eyes already overflowing like a torrent.
Her tears suddenly burst out from her eyes like a dam breaking.
This long-awaited rain extinguished the burning dryness that was burning her nerves, causing extreme pain and itchiness like the bites of a poisonous insect.
"I was wrong, Ranran."
He stared into her eyes and held her face carefully.
"I was wrong."
The magnetic voice was repeated, gentle to the extreme.
For some reason, all of Ji Ran's emotions suddenly disappeared, leaving only grievance.
But her tears kept pouring out. She opened her mouth to say something, but her voice was so unfamiliar that she couldn't find it, as if she was speaking for the first time.
But his eyes were fixed on the face in front of him, and he was reluctant to even blink.
His cool fingertips brushed the piercing tears on her face.
"Stop ignoring me, okay?"
The girl seemed to gather up all her strength, put her arms around his neck, and kissed the cold lips that belonged only to her.
Qi Muwei was stunned for a second, then closed his eyes, pulled the coat tighter around the girl, and hugged her tightly.
The warm breath moved over his cold skin, as if even he was breathing.
"I do not want……"
Ji Ran finally found her voice, but it was shaking violently.
The man suddenly opened his eyes, stared into her dark pupils, and gently stroked her face.
"I don't want you to take risks...
I don't want anything to happen to you...
I don't want to lose you...
Without you, nothing would make sense...
I can't go back to Qi Mu... I can't go back to the days without you...
Even if it's hell, take me with you, okay...
I can't live without you...can't live without...
Don't abandon me... please..."
The girl burst into tears and poured out her inner thoughts with difficulty.
Qi Mu felt so heartbroken that his soul almost broke. He gently kissed the corner of her lips.
"I was wrong, I was wrong..."
He carefully touched every inch of her lips.
He didn't expect that what he thought was protecting her would completely release the anxiety in her heart.
It turns out that he is so selfish, shamelessly wrapping himself in a selfless shell.
He didn't consider at all the sense of security that Ranran had lacked since childhood.
The promise of 'I won't abandon you' that I was about to blurt out now seemed pale and powerless.
He looked firmly into her eyes,
"No matter what happens in the future, we will face it together."
Ji Ran nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes. She once again wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his shoulder.
"You can never leave me..."
The man stroked her hair gently, and his voice was still gentle. It was not a promise, but a statement.
"Never."
Hearing this, the girl's heart, which had been gnawed away, finally began to repair itself.
"I love you, Qi Mu."
The man's body suddenly froze. If he wasn't dead, he would have thought he was dreaming.
She said she loved him...
For the first time, she said she loved him.
The strong arms unconsciously hugged the girl tighter.
The girl also clenched her fingertips tightly, and at this moment the photo frame on her right hand had some presence again.
"By the way," Ji Ran sniffed and raised his head, showing the photo frame to Qi Mu, "this..."
The man shifted his gaze to the photo frame in her hand in confusion. At that instant, he recognized the dying woman on the operating room bed in the county hospital.
