The man took out a half-wet cigarette case from his trouser pocket and gently picked out a cigarette with his mouth. He did not smoke it, but put it between his fingers and lit it.

The thin smoke drifted away in wisps, obscuring his facial features.

He bent over, his elbows propped on his vigorous legs, his head hung low, and the fine ink hair fell on his forehead. His expression could not be seen clearly.

He did not know how much time had passed until a fine burning pain came from his skin, which woke him up from the fear of being lost.

He stood up, put out the cigarette butt in his hand, and threw it into the trash can at the side.

Outside the window at the end of the corridor, it was still raining cats and dogs.

Everything in front of him seemed to suddenly turn into a scene of a girl lying in the bathtub, dying.

Blood. There was bright red blood everywhere.

He frowned. Just as he was about to touch the cigarette box in his trouser pocket, he was suddenly interrupted by the sound of the door opening behind him.

He strode over. No one knew that his legs were trembling, and he was completely stunned.

“Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji’s wrist has been sutured and is out of danger, but there is a high possibility that there will be sequelae. Of course, the exact details will depend on the recovery. After all, she is still young. ”

“However, it is fortunate that you found her in time so that she did not die from excessive blood loss. ”

Ji Yunshen narrowed his eyes, which were as deep as the sea, and his voice was as firm as his. “Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work. ”

The elderly doctor nodded slightly. “It’s my duty. ”

Then, he explained the basic situation of the surgery and walked away. Doctors and nurses followed behind him one after another.

Qiao man was the last one to be pushed out. Because the surgery had been anesthetized, she had not woken up yet.

The man could almost see the white gauze wrapped around the girl’s wrist at a glance. One could imagine how deep she had cut.

On the night of the plane crash, she had said that she wanted to cut off all ties with him. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

He had always thought that it was just her angry words. However, her determination tonight told him that their marriage might really have come to an end.

What should he do? He did not want to let her go.

He did not want to die.

…

Two minutes later, Qiao man was pushed into the advanced ward. He stood by the bed and looked at her pale face, not moving for a long time.

Secretary Yang stood outside the ward and waited for a long time, but no one came out. He could only gently knock on the ward door to remind the man inside.

Ji Yunshen heard the knock on the door and reached out to brush away the hair that fell between her eyebrows, then walked out of the ward with heavy steps.

Secretary Yang watched the man slowly close the door and said softly, “president JI, Li Qing had a girlfriend before. It is said that they have been together for many years, but no one has seen her before. ”

“The friends around him are all very strange. They say that a pilot’s salary is not high, but he lives in a high-end apartment, drives a super sports car, and is very generous to his parents and friends… ”

Secretary Yang paused and looked at the man’s Taut jaw line. “They say that he’s been raised by his girlfriend. They also say that his girlfriend might be an elderly wife in the upper-class circle, or a daughter of a rich family who wants to be fresh. ”

“take good care of him. His phone is monitored 24 hours a day. He’s been missing for so long. The other party must be anxious. ”

“okay, I understand. ”

Ji Yunshen raised his wrist and glanced at the exquisite dial. “It’s getting late. You should go back and rest early. It’s been hard on you tonight. ”

“President Ji, you’re too kind. I’ll be leaving first. ”

Ji Yunshen nodded and walked to the bench by the door of the ward and sat down.

Outside the window, the wind and rain were swaying, and inside the window, there was a violent storm.

…

When Qiao man woke up, the first thing she felt was pain. It was the pain of cramps and bones being dug out.

It spread from her wrist all the way to every corner of her body. It seemed that there was nothing good about it.

There was plenty of light outside the window. She adapted to it for a while before opening her eyes.

The man was sitting on a chair by the bed. He was holding a cigarette in his hand. He did not light it or smoke it. His eyes, which were as dark as the night, were staring at her without blinking. There was nothing in them. It was almost terrifyingly calm.

“You’re awake? ”

Qiao man nodded. She wanted to sit up, but she forgot about the injury on her wrist. The pain overwhelmed her, so much so that her eyes were quickly covered with a thin layer of tears.

The man’s back was deeply embedded in the back of the chair. His legs were elegantly crossed. He heard the girl’s soft gasps, but he did not move.

“Qiao man, tell me, how long have you been planning this suicide? ”

He was taking the last straw, leaving no room for negotiation.

“If the price of escaping from this marriage is that I have to self-injure or commit suicide in exchange, I think it’s very worth it. ”

In the beginning, she was the one who destroyed his so-called love and marriage.

Then, when it was over, she would return it to him with interest.

“Then, are you sure that I will let you go? ”

The man took out a lighter from his trouser pocket, lowered his head, and lit it. Then, he slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke, his voice was dark and hoarse from the smoke “divorce means that you will be alone and helpless. It means that you will have to taste the darkness of Hell on Earth. It also means that everything that you have put in before has turned into nothing… ”

“I know. ”

The girl closed her eyes. When she opened them again, there were no fluctuations in them. They were frighteningly calm. “I have always been afraid that I wouldn’t be able to get through hell. But in fact, I am also in hell. ”

She had a deep understanding of how dark this world was from the day Xiao Min played tricks to marry Qiao Mingzhang.

One second, she was still her best friend’s sister, and the next second, she became her stepmother.

If this change did not happen to her, she would have thought that such a melodramatic plot would only happen in romance novels.

And Xiao Meng had quietly slept with Jiang Yingdong. The girl who once said that she would stay by her side for the rest of her life had pushed her into the abyss by the cruelest means.

Perhaps, she did not deserve to be happy.

In the past, or now.

“Ji Yunshen, if you don’t want to see a corpse lying next to you tomorrow, let’s get a divorce. ”

The man raised the cigarette in his hand and took a deep breath. He said with a half-smile, “are you threatening me? ”

“If the threat works. ”

The girl was wearing a blue and white hospital gown. Her long hair hanging at her waist was a little messy, but it made her eyes, which were as clear as ink, look even purer.

Her skin was very white, almost transparent under the sunlight. There was almost no emotion on her face. She was like a Marionette without any anger.

“So, this is what you call loving me? ”

She kept saying that she did not resist his temptation. She broke the rules and fell in love with him.

He even believed her.

But at this moment, he really could not understand.

The girl lowered her eyes. A pair of fair hands were clasped together. Her voice was warm and cold. There was no fluctuation in her tone. “When I am with you, there is love, but there are also too many grievances. ”

She did not deny that she loved him, but when the grievances were greater than love, she did not seem to need to continue torturing herself.

After all, life was short, and there were still many things she could do.

There was a saying on Weibo that was very good and suited her current state of mind.

It said that a woman’s biggest mistake was not to love the wrong person, but to persist on despite knowing that she had loved the wrong person.

Such a woman was not worthy of other people’s pity.

Although she was in a sorry state now, it was not to the extent of being pitied.

It was a blessing, but it was also a tragedy.

The morning sun shone through the windows at six or seven in the morning. The two of them were enveloped by the warm light, but there was no gentleness or stiffness in the atmosphere.

After a long while, the man finally said, “man man, I seem to have told you that you are very greedy. ”

If you want to start, then start. If you want to end, then end.

The girl tidied her hair on her shoulders and the corners of her lips curled up. “Will it affect your self-esteem? If it does, I will sincerely apologize. ”

The man smiled softly and put out the cigarette butt in his hand. He stood up against the light and said, “I’ll go prepare breakfast for you. ”

Qiao man saw that he had changed the topic and quickly answered, “I’m not hungry. ”

The man’s brows furrowed almost immediately. “Am I a flood beast to you now? ”

The girl did not say anything and fell silent.

“You’ve lost a lot of blood. You need to replenish your nutrition. ”

After saying that, the man walked out of the ward with his long legs.

Zhang Sao walked out of the elevator and immediately saw Ji Yunshen at the other end of the corridor. She quickly walked over. “young master, this is the chicken soup that I stayed up all night to make. ”

“Okay, put it on the chair. I’ll bring it in myself later. ”

“Okay, young master. ”

He took out another cigarette from his pocket and lit it up. His hand that did not have a cigarette fell into his pocket.

His Gaze looked through the window at the bustling city outside.

He stood there for a while before putting out the cigarette butt in his hand and throwing it into the trash can. Then, he turned around and picked up the thermal lunch box on the bench and walked into the ward.
