Chapter 245 - Self-inflicted

Qiao Nana glanced at Pei Qingheng, and sneered: "You reap what you sow!"

Ling Xiaorui followed them in and heard a sentence full of ridicule from Qiao Nana. He closed his eyes in despair and rushed forward, saying in a low voice, "Don't say anymore!"

Qiao Nana glanced at Ling Xiaorui and laughed coldly: "What's wrong? You dare to do it but you don't dare to let others say it?! "

"Don't add to the mess later, let them settle it themselves if they have anything to do!" Ling Xiaorui grabbed Qiao Nana's hand and was about to pull her out.

Lin Sitong's chest heaved violently a few times. After calming herself down, she looked at Qiao Nana. "Nana, I'm fine. You go out first. "There are some things …"

As Lin Sitong said that, her gaze turned to Pei Qingheng, and spoke with a somber voice: "I want to settle this with him alone."

Pei Qingheng's eyes were deep, his eyes were filled with anxiety, his brows knitted slightly, and he looked back at Lin Sitong.

Qiao Nana turned her gaze back and forth between Pei Qingheng and herself, and then nodded his head reluctantly and walked out of the room, turning his head three times in a single step.

The door of the ward was closed again.

"Stone …" Pei Qingheng softly called out to Lin Sitong again, her handsome face revealing traces of anxiousness.

Lin Sitong ignored him and found a place to sit by herself. Only then did she raise her head to look at Pei Qingheng, and her small and elegant face revealed a slightly mocking and exhausted smile. "Pei Qingheng, you saved me, I am extremely grateful. However … Can you stop teasing me like this? "

"I didn't mean to tease you." Pei Qingheng s straight eyebrows tightly knitted together.

Lin Sitong laughed bitterly and shook her head, her eyes revealing a trace of sorrow: "Pei Qingheng, do you know? I already don't know which of the words you said to me were true and which were false. "

Pei Qingheng was about to speak, but Lin Sitong raised her hand to stop him, and said with a weak yet determined voice: "Listen to what I have to say."

Pei Qingheng frowned, but still nodded his head.

Lin Sitong closed her eyes, enduring the waves of pain from her forehead. His voice was light, as if it had come from another time and space, "The words that I had spoken to you before, was indeed from the heart."

Pei Qingheng's eyes revealed joy, but that happiness gradually disappeared with Lin Sitong's following words.

Lin Sitong continued to speak, a faint trace of water vapor appeared in her eyes: "Pei Qingheng, you've won, I admit that I now have feelings for you that surpasses those of my ordinary colleagues. Didn't you do all this just for me to admit this? "

"But I never thought of lying to you …"

"But you did lie to me." Lin Sitong raised his head to look at Pei Qingheng, a faint light shining in his eyes. "Since you've already gotten your answer, I think you don't need to think of such a way to tease me."

"I …" Pei Qingheng wanted to say something.

"Us." Lin Sitong interrupted Pei Qingheng and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a clear and shallow sad smile, "We … That's it. "

As he spoke, Lin Sitong slowly stood up and prepared to leave.

"I won't allow it!" Pei Qingheng growled, a pair of powerful arms tightly embraced Lin Sitong from behind, within that usually calm and clear voice, there was a trace of panic, "I won't, I won't!"

Lin Sitong's hand gently rested on Pei Qingheng's, a scalding tear drop fell on the back of her hand.

Pei Qingheng's body shook violently. As if his hands had been burned by the heat of his tears, he retreated backwards, and revealed a dazed expression on his face.

"What else do you want?" Lin Sitong said softly, "I've already told you everything, what else do you want me to do?"

Pei Qingheng gritted his teeth tightly and said in a low voice, "I want to be together with you."

"Together?" Lin Sitong chuckled. She shook her head and said softly, "Pei Qingheng, do you know? I'm especially afraid of you right now. I don't know when you're sincere or fake. I was like a fool, fooled by you. Pei Qingheng, is this what you meant by like? Or do you just like to control my mood this way? Are you happy to see me like this? "

Pei Qingheng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Look, you don't even know yourself." Lin Sitong laughed, but it was as if she couldn't control her tears from rolling down her face. She placed her hand on Pei Qingheng's hand and said softly, "Let me go, okay? Pei Qingheng, I admit defeat. "

Pei Qingheng shut his eyes, his expression incomparably sorrowful. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will let you go, who will let me go?!"

Following that, a huge force forced Lin Sitong to turn around to face Pei Qingheng.

"Stone, do you not know anything about my intentions?" Pei Qingheng said in a heavy voice.

Lin Sitong closed her eyes, unable to hide the sobs in her throat.

Pei Qingheng's eyes revealed a trace of pain and regret. He hugged Lin Sitong tightly, "I'm sorry … I didn't take your feelings into account. "

Lin Sitong raised her head, and looked at Pei Qingheng with empty eyes, as she softly said. "Pei Qingheng, I admit that I like you. However, that's all we can do. "

As Lin Sitong said that, she pushed Pei Qingheng away fiercely. Her eyes became cold and she spoke word by word, "I hate people who lie to me the most!"

Pei Qingheng retreated two steps, and tightly clenched the two hands hanging at his sides. His eyes revealed a trace of an expression of patience: "Sorry."

Lin Sitong didn't say anything else and slowly walked to the door of the ward, and opened it.

Qiao Nana suddenly rushed forward, supporting Lin Sitong up and down, she carefully sized him up. She could hear the movements in the ward just now from outside, and her heart was now in her throat. "Stone, are you alright?"

Lin Sitong revealed a weak and pale smile, "I'm fine, just a little dizzy. "I want to go back and sleep for a while …"

"Alright, alright, let's go back and rest now." Qiao Nana said softly, as if shshewas afraid that if she were to say it out loud, he would scare Lin Sitong.

Ling Xiaorui looked at Lin Sitong and then looked at Ling Xiaorui. Clenching her fists, he walked into the ward and supported Pei Qingheng: Ol 'Three, are you alright?

A painful expression appeared in Pei Qingheng's eyes as he shook his head. His gaze never left Lin Sitong's body.

Just as Lin Sitong took a step forward, Ling Xiaorui's terrified and worried voice came out: "Ol 'Three!"

Lin Sitong's footsteps paused, but she still couldn't help but turn around.
