Chapter 284 - I love you, Juan. Don't leave me ever. (Part-1)

Her childhood memories in the orphanage flashed in her mind and she lost in them, she subconsciously started pouring her heart out, "I...I lived with my big sister, Liu Ruolan, in an orphanage. We don't know who our parents are but I had my big sister. She loved me a lot and always took care of me. Whenever any child bullied me, my big sister always stood for me and fought with them. Because of that, Mr. Yang always punished her but she still fought against other children if they bullied me."

"Then what happened afterward? Did you continue to live with your big sister in the orphanage? How did you meet Markus?" Zhou Xuiye asked.

Liu Juan swallowed air in her throat and replied after recalling the old memories. "It was Friday. Big sister had gone to the market with Uncle Hu and I was waiting for her and then…"

Liu Juan continued to tell everything from the beginning about how Markus adopted her and ending up on the incident of how she ended up at the hands of those devilish men.

Liu Juan's eyes turned hollow when she recalled everything. Her soul turned empty and every word she uttered was like a robot reciting an anecdote.

She told every single detail including those things which even Mo Jiang didn't know. Liu Juan's whole life was so woeful that Zhou Xuiye's eyes turned red. After all, Liu Juan was her friend and her heart was breaking upon hearing how much Liu Juan had suffered.

However, Liu Juan didn't feel anything because the pain was so much that she had turned numb. She just knew that she had to tell everything that happened in her past and that she did.

She recalled everything just like how Mo Jiang and Zhou Xuiye wanted and words flowed out of her mouth like a river to the point that she didn't know what had happened but she lost her consciousness as the unbearable pain stopped her heart from beating.

She just vaguely heard Zhou Xuiye shouting, "Mary, bring in the AED now. Hurry up!"

"1-2-3-Shoot!"

"1-2-3-Shoot!"

"1-2-3-Shoot!"

"No….No...You can't die…call Mo Jiang...immediately…."

Liu Juan squinted, opened her eyes with difficulty, and saw Zhou Xuiye struggling to save her. She heard her shouting and the tears in her eyes before  She wanted to say something but something pulled her into darkness and soon she closed her eyes again and everything turned black in front of her eyes.

And all the pain was gone.

Perhaps this was her end…

Liu Juan had decided that it was her end but suddenly, her eyes shot open making her gasp.

However, she wasn't in the hospital. She was lying on the grass, a full blue sky spread endlessly over her. The sweet chirping sound of the birds could be heard along with the rustling sound of leaves as they moved with the breeze passing through them.

The sound of running water could be heard like a piece of plain music was playing. 

Liu Juan closed her eyes and opened them again but she continued to hear the same sound with the blue sky hovering above her.

"Aren't I dead?" She questioned herself.

She pushed herself up to sit and looked at her surroundings. She wasn't in the hospital but at an unknown place. Unknown, yet a beautiful place.

"Where  am I?" She again asked herself.

Liu Juan always got her guard up at strange places but surprisingly, she was feeling peace which she had been yearning for years since all the bad things had been happening to her.

"Am I in heaven?" She questioned herself again to which she didn't know the answer, just like she had no answer to any question of hers.

She stood up and found that she was wearing the same dress which she was wearing before losing consciousness in the hospital but her right artificial leg was replaced with the real leg of flesh.

"My leg." Liu Juan gasped in surprise.

"Juan….Where are you--- Here you are here." At that time, she heard a familiar sweet voice.

She looked up and saw Liu Ruolan standing in front of her, smiling sweetly at her just like the way she used to smile when they were young.

"Big Sister…" Liu Juan looked at her in surprise.

"How many times have I told you not to sleep here? Now come on, Mama and Papa must be waiting for us. Let's not make them wait." Liu Ruolan said as she walked towards her and pulled her into a particular direction which Liu Juan was not familiar with.

However, the direction was not the matter but the important matter was their parents. "Who's Mama and Papa?" Liu Juan looked at Liu Ruolan in confusion.

"Who's Mama and Papa? What kind of question is that? Of course, our Mama and Papa. What happened to you? Why are you looking so confused?" Liu Ruolan asked and looked at her with a smile pasted on her lips as continued to talk without waiting for a response. "Let me tell you a secret. Mama and Papa have been decorating the house for your birthday. They wanted to give you a big surprise, that's why they had sent you with me to catch fishes but who knew that you slept on grass again. Now we are late. Mama must be worried about us. Let's go back quickly." She held Liu Juan's hand and pulled her along as she increased her pace.

Birthday?

Big Surprise?

Their parents?

Weren't all these the things that she had been yearning for?

Now, she was really having all these things. Liu Juan couldn't help but get excited and walk with Liu Ruolan faster.

They walked towards the deserted forest, passing through the thick trees. Liu Juan started feeling strange and weary but her excitement to meet her parents and celebrate her birthday with her family overwhelmed her cautious thoughts.

Thus, she continued to walk until she suddenly heard a sound.

"No. Juan, stop right there. Don't go any further!"
