Chapter 122 - Ling Rui's Accusation

Shen You returned to the infirmary in a daze.

She felt the blood that was boiling on her hands just now was now making her feel cold.

She rushed to the sink and washed her hands hard with hot water.

After a long time, only then Shen You walked back to the chair at the side and sit down.

She sat quietly on the spot, and everything around her seemed to stand still.

Shen You lowered her head and looked at her hands.

The feeling of her life slipping away bit by bit made her feel even more real.

"Why? Are you scared?" The system's voice sounded in Shen You's mind.

"Is this the feeling of approaching death?" Shen You asked faintly.

"You've died before, you should know." The system's voice sounded very heartless.

Shen You closed her eyes and carefully recalled what she had experienced.

"I don't remember! At that time, it felt like nothing was important, nothing was real!" Shen You said as she covered her eyes with her hands.

"It's just that you don't want to remember." The system's voice sounded again, but it was not clear if it was comforting her.

"I don't know, I only know that this feeling makes me afraid." Shen You shared the feeling deep in her heart.

"You can have more chances to live now! Don't be afraid!" The system seemed to be comforting Shen you this time.

"Human life is so fragile!" Tears slowly fell from the corners of Shen You's eyes, "There are many things that are inevitable."

Shen You suddenly thought of something.

She sat up straight and asked the system, "In my previous life, why did Ling Rui hurt Wu Qi, do you know why?"

"Is it because he knew he was going to die?" Shen You guessed with uncertainty.

"But, he liked Wu Qi, right?" Shen You asked again, "Why would he hurt the person he liked?"

The system suddenly went silent.

Shen You stopped asking but waited quietly.

After a long time, the system said, "No, it was not what you are thinking of."

"Then why?" Shen You was even more confused.

The system did not answer Shen You's question. Instead, it asked, "Have you thought about the question Ling Rui asked you just now?"

This question stumped Shen You.

Before Ling Rui fainted, they were having an intense argument.

If it was not for Ling Rui's congenital disease, Shen You would probably be charged with the crime of injury.

Thinking of Ling Rui's question, Shen You fell into deep thought again.

"Shen You, do you like Huo Xiao?" Ling Rui asked straightforwardly.

Shen You looked at Ling Rui in surprise as if she had heard something strange. "Of course not! What a joke!"

Shen You swallowed the words "I only treat him as a store of luck value".

"Then why are you with Huo Xiao every day?" Ling Rui asked again.

Then, he questioned again, "Do you know that if you do this, others will be very sad!"

"Others? Are you talking about Wu Qi?" Shen You stared at Ling Rui's face and asked coldly.

"After knowing they are engaged, I have avoided contact with Huo Xiao!" Shen You felt very uncomfortable with Ling Rui's attitude.

However, Ling Rui did not care about Shen You's reaction at all. He insisted on his thoughts. "But the damage has already been done!"

"But you can't blame me for this! I didn't know anything before this!" Shen You immediately defended herself.

Moreover, was this damage indeed caused by her?

"You're too selfish!" Ling Rui immediately made a judgment.

Shen You was instantly furious. "Ling Rui, don't you think you're very weird?"

"Who are you to stand up for Wu Qi?" Shen You asked Ling Rui instead.

Ling Rui was suddenly at a loss for words. "I..."

Ling Rui really could not think of an excuse. He could only say, "In short, everyone is hurt if you are doing this!"

"I beg your pardon!" Shen You could not help but laugh. "Ever since I found out that Huo Xiao and Wu Qi are engaged, I haven't even spoken to Huo Xiao. What else do you want me to do?"

"You should leave this place!" Ling Rui gave the suggestion which he thought was the most reasonable.

Shen You did not agree with his suggestion and asked, "I should leave? Why? On what basis?"

"If you stay here, everyone will be uncomfortable!" Ling Rui gave his reason.

Shen You looked at Ling Rui in disbelief. "I think you're a little ridiculous!"

"Even if I leave, Wu Qi will not belong to you!" Shen You said with a mocking smile on her lips.

"I know... But...." Before Ling Rui could finish his words, he fell to the ground right away.
