Chapter 461 - Torture

I was at a loss for words. Grandma had taught me another lesson in the cruelty of reality.

"Nanxing, my name is Ma Ji. You can call me by my name. I never like the outsiders' way of address." She said.

I saw Xiao Yi's Adam's Apple move. It was clear that he wanted to say something, but he stopped himself.

I nodded. "Alright, Ma Ji. I feel weird to call you Grandma anyway."

Ma Ji smiled and signaled for us to lead the way.

Once we entered the Jing residence, the maid ran over. "Miss Nanxing, quick. Young Master is... in a bad state."

I panicked and forgot about Ma Ji. I followed the servant to Jing Tian's room.

Jing Tian was rolling around the bed in pain. I wanted to hug him, but I was afraid that it would make him feel even more pain. His face was extremely pale, and he was drenched in a cold sweat.

"Nanxing, I will not use the free-spirited grass. I will never be controlled by any poison or medicine!" He saw me and reached out to hold my hand.

His palm was cold and sticky.

My tears fell immediately. "Jing Tian, just wait a moment. I've found a way to save you."

Jing Tian looked at me and enunciated each word clearly. "If you dare to give me to that woman, I'll never forgive you for the rest of my life! Nanxing, listen to me. If I can't be with you in this life, then forgive me. I will have to leave first. But I'll wait for you in the next life!"

My tears fell harder. "Jing Tian, listen. I've really found a way to save you."

Jing Tian tried his best to smile. "Nanxing, I love you! I hope I can be with you all my lives. I wish the dream that you painted for me is true. Nanxing, I'm sorry. I will have to leave first. But we... I will wait for you in the next life!"

He was in extreme pain. His body curled up into a ball. He couldn't even summon the energy to hold my hands anymore.

"Ma Ji, Ma Ji, please save him!" I shouted. I didn't dare leave Jing Tian's side.

Jing Tian, I love you too. I won't let you die. I don't want to wait for our next life. I want us to be together in this life. I've gone through one lifetime. I can't wait for another lifetime, I won't! Jing Tian, I love you!

As long as you can get better, it doesn't matter that you don't remember me. It doesn't matter as long as you're no longer in pain.

I knelt by Jing Tian's bed, trembling all over. My heart had been shattered into powder.

Jing Tian gradually fell into a coma. The hand that held mine lost its strength.

I shouted, "Jing Tian! Jing Tian! Wake up. You can't sleep!" Jing Tian's eyelids fluttered but he couldn't open them.

"Nanxing, I'm in too much pain. I need to sleep for a while. Just a while. Nanxing, I love you." His voice gradually weakened.

"Ma Ji! Ma Ji! Please come and save him!" I cried. I couldn't understand why Ma Ji and Xiao Yi hadn't arrived. I wanted to go check, but I couldn't move. I didn't have the energy to move. I couldn't leave Jing Tian!

I tapped Jing Tian's face. I didn't care if it caused him pain. I wanted him to wake up to see me.

"Jing Tian, look at me! I'm Nan Xing! I'm Nan Xing!" I cried out.

Jing Tian didn't open his eyes. His breathing weakened. He finally let go of my hand.

Jing Tian! You can't die! You absolutely can't!

If you die, I'll go after you!
