Chapter 12 My Angel

I stubbornly thought that as long as you stayed with me,
We can go back to the past.
Now it seems that I was wrong, and my stubbornness has only brought us sadness.

When I woke up, I was in ruins. This place seemed familiar.
My head was still a little dizzy and my mouth was sealed, so I couldn't call for help.
I recalled what happened before I came here. On the way to work, I was dragged into the alley where Yan Wenbo and I had quarreled. Before I could resist, a handkerchief was placed over my mouth, and I fainted before I could react.
Those scenes that I had only seen in TV dramas actually happened to me. When I moved my body, my hands were tied behind my back and I couldn't get away. My feet were also tied. I tried to find sharp objects like in TV dramas, but I found nothing.
I tried to calm myself down and think about whether I had offended anyone or gotten involved in some trouble. I thought about every detail but couldn't find any clues.
Suddenly...I thought of someone.
Ren Xiaoqi.
It's only her. This time it's even more exaggerated than the "hero saving the beauty" she planned last time. I don't know what she really wants to do.
Before I could think clearly, Ren Xiaoqi appeared in front of me.
She squatted down, our eyes met, and she asked me, "Zhiwei, do you know how important you are to me?"
"Wuwuwu..." I wanted to speak, but my mouth was sealed and it was difficult to breathe.
She raised her hand and tore off the tape on my face. My face felt burning and I couldn't help but frown.
I asked her, "What do you want? Ren Xiaoqi, wake up. You are committing a crime now. Do you know that?"
"Weiwei, are you really going to be so cold to me?" She looked at me with tears in her eyes, feeling very aggrieved. "I just want to be friends with you, why is it so difficult?"
Seeing her like this, I felt soft-hearted for a moment, but reason told me that escaping was the most important thing at the moment.
"Ren Xiaoqi, let me go first. Only after you let me go can we have a good chat, do you know?" I tried hard to break free from the tight rope, but it was all in vain.
"Let you go?" Ren Xiaoqi snorted coldly, "Do you think I'm stupid? I'm telling you, don't even think about leaving here!"
"Okay, okay, as long as you let me go, we can be friends again!" I wanted to exchange safety for temporary compromise .
But Ren Xiaoqi saw through my little trick. She squatted in front of me and tightened the ropes on me. I tried hard to resist, but she held me tightly.
"Cun Zhiwei, stop lying to me. I'm telling you, I'm going to tie you to my side from now on!"
I twisted my body hard to break free, and my anger reached its peak in an instant: "Ren Xiaoqi, you lunatic! Are you crazy? Let me tell you! If you said this to me when we first met, even if we can't go back to the close relationship we had before, we will still be friends." I looked at her and hardened my heart. I knew that if I didn't make it clear, she would only get crazier in the future. "But you have done too many things to hurt me and the people around me. We can no longer be friends, do you understand? There is no going back."
It seems that for a long time, I have been constantly telling others the four words "I can't go back". I hope that one day, I can firmly walk with the important people around me for a long time without having to mention these four words.
"I can't go back! I can't go back! Cun Zhiwei, can you say something else?" She grabbed my shoulders and shook me madly, "You keep saying this, but I don't want to listen to you at all, you know? I don't want to listen at all! We can definitely go back, we can definitely be good friends again, we can definitely!"
"You're crazy! Let me go!" I yelled, struggling to break free, but my wrists felt tighter and more painful.
"I won't let go! Cun Zhiwei, you are my friend, mine! I can't lose you, I can't lose you, do you know? Why won't you come back to me? I'm the only one who truly cares about what's best for you! Don't you know? Everyone else around you has other intentions!" She shouted beside me, her voice so sharp that it seemed to pierce my eardrums.
"How have you been good to me? Kidnapping my friends is good to me? Joining forces with my ex-boyfriend to find someone to insult me ​​is good to me? Or kidnapping me like you are doing now is good to me? Ren Xiaoqi, is this your way of being good to someone?" I couldn't help but get excited. Thinking of what she had done to me, my heart ached. And Wang Zijia, this name has been buried in my heart for too long, and it was the time that hurt me the most.
"I did all that for you, so that you can come back to me! Cun Zhiwei, why don't you understand me? Why don't you understand that I am the one who treats you the best, you only have me! Only me!" She was shouting wildly in the huge space, and her dancing was terrifying.
I knew that if I continued to argue with her, things would only develop in an uncontrollable direction. If I went along with her, there might be a chance of a turnaround.
"Xiaoqi, I think we can talk calmly." I tried to keep my voice from shaking, and I tried my best to imitate the tone we used when we were together, shouting, "Ren Xiaoqi, damn it, how long are you going to tie me up? Do you really consider me a friend? If you don't let me go, don't talk to me anymore."
She suddenly stopped screaming and stared at me blankly, tears streaming down her cheeks. She walked over to me, grabbed my hand, and asked incredulously, "Are you going to make peace with me?"
Anyone who is sober will understand that I am acting. She has lost her mind. As long as I show a little kindness or weakness, she will take it seriously.
Looking at her like this, I felt that I was very despicable and she was very pitiful.
"Weiwei, I'll untie the rope for you right now. Let's go take a photo of our best friends together, okay? That photo is very popular recently. The mall we used to go to often has a store that provides wigs. Can you wear red hair?" Ren Xiaoqi's hands trembled slightly as she untied the rope. "Weiwei, I've been thinking about what we're going to do after we get back together. I want to travel with you, eat lots of delicious food together, take photos together, and... In short, there are many things waiting for us. Can we start this weekend?"
"Of course!" I answered reluctantly. When I glanced towards the door, I seemed to see a shadow flashing. Could she be using the same trick as last time? "Are you here alone today?"
"At first I thought if you refused to make peace with me, I would scare you. Now that you're back, they're naturally useless." After the last knot was untied, Ren Xiaoqi looked up at me and smiled brightly, "Okay, let's go!"
"We...may not be able to leave," I said.
Dark shadows appeared at the door. They walked towards us against the light and sneered at me and Ren Xiaoqi: "Are you guys reconciled and planning to leave?"
"Yes!" Ren Xiaoqi said as a matter of course.
I moved my wrists and she pulled me up. We stood face to face with the two men. The huge height pressure made me panic.
They are people Ren Xiaoqi knows, so nothing should happen to them, but I always feel a little uncomfortable, as if something to happen.
"Then all our work today has been in vain?" asked the fatter man.
"Don't worry, after I send Weiwei back, we'll have dinner together. You can order whatever you want." Ren Xiaoqi said as she pulled me out the door. After we took two steps, two men stepped out to block us. She asked warily, "I told you that we're fine now, you can leave, why are you still blocking us?"
"You guys are fine, I'm busy!" The fat man looked me up and down in a mean way, "Ren Xiaoqi, you never told me that your friend is so pretty. You can leave anytime, but your friend has to stay."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ren Xiaoqi blocked me behind him.
I looked at the sudden changes in front of me in confusion, wondering if this was another scene she had arranged, just like the one with Yan Wenbo.
"I said, get out of here right now, and your friend stay." The thin man who had been silent kicked Ren Xiaoqi impatiently, "Do you really think we helped you kidnap her just for your ridiculous friendship? Can you please stop being naive?"
"What do you mean?" Ren Xiaoqi staggered back two steps, holding her stomach, with beads of sweat on her forehead. The pain did not seem to be pretended.
"Are you okay?" I supported her and asked worriedly.
This was not arranged by her! These two people were really beyond her control!
I thought the crisis was over the moment before, but the next moment it became crisis again.
Things were developing in an unpredictable direction again, and I stood there powerless to do anything.
"Ah——" I screamed, and the fat man pulled me over. He held my arm tightly with one hand, pinched my chin with the other hand, and teased, "You look pretty good, and you're my favorite style."
“It looks like you’re planning to give this woman right here…” The thin man chuckled twice.
Even though I have never experienced sex, I understand what the thin guy meant. When I heard this, I was stunned and shouted in panic: "Let me go! Let me go!"
"You're caught by us and you're still thinking of getting away peacefully? How is that possible?" The skinny guy has no idea about the four words "gentle and compassionate to women". His favorite action is "kicking".
Hearing my scream, he raised his foot and kicked me hard like before. Because the fat man was holding me up, I didn't fall to the ground. The severe pain in my abdomen was enough to make me speechless.
" What are you doing?" Ren Xiaoqi was finally scared. All the arrogance and pride on her face had disappeared. She was even more afraid of what was going to happen next than I was. "Let her go!"
Ren Xiaoqi rushed over, but was kicked away again. She stood up again and walked to the man with difficulty, but was kicked away again. She did this again and again until she could no longer stand up. She wailed, "Let her go, let her go! Let her go, I'll stay, I'll stay. Look, I'm pretty, too, don't I? They all say I'm prettier than her."
"Don't do this... don't do this..." Seeing her like this, intense pain spread from the chest, like the most potent poison, quickly spreading throughout the body.
I thought I would never be soft-hearted for this girl again in my life, but at this moment I knew that I still cared about her, very much.
"Let's go, let's go to the next room. I don't want to see Ren Xiaoqi's sad face." The fat man dragged me to the next room.
The thin man spat at her, turned around and followed her.
I was kicked twice before being dragged away, and I completely lost the strength to resist.
I thought my life might be over like this. I closed my eyes, but they were so dry that I couldn’t cry anymore.
I don’t know what Ji Suting is doing now, whether he is looking for me, or whether he thinks about me at all.
"Let her go! Let her go!" Ren Xiaoqi suddenly stood up, took out a knife from somewhere, and stabbed it straight into the thin man's arm.
Before the thin man kicked out, she took a step back to avoid it and rushed forward again with the knife in hand: "Let her go, or I will be rude to you."
"How can you be so rude?" The thin man wanted to move forward, but was blocked by the swinging knife. After several attempts, he was unable to get close to Ren Xiaoqi.
"I've been here for a while, and this is not the first time I've seen people like you turn their backs on me. I'm prepared." Her body was a little swaying as she stood there.
I knew very well what she looked like when she lied, it was just bluffing. I kept silent, not daring to say a word to distract her, and kept paying attention to the movements of the fat and thin people, trying to find a chance to break away.
"Huh, if you were really prepared, would you just stand there stupidly and let me kick you? Don't be so funny." The thin man sneered, not caring at all.
"Boss, she is not someone you can easily mess with. Should we..." It was the fat man who hesitated. He asked the thin man tentatively, and immediately stopped after getting a glare.
I took the opportunity to lower my head and bite the fat man's arm hard. He couldn't stand the pain and let go. I took the opportunity to pounce on Ren Xiaoqi. Before I got close to her, I saw her eyes were wide open, as if she had seen something horrible.
It happened right before my eyes. In just a short moment, my heart went through several ups and downs. As I pounced on Ren Xiaoqi, she grabbed my arm and pulled me back hard. I thought she was going to catch me and stand side by side with me, but she turned around and stood behind me, hugging me tightly from behind.
It turns out that there is a sound when a knife is inserted into the flesh.
It turns out that the blood that has just flowed out is so hot.
It turns out... I am really that important to her.
By the time I reacted, Ren Xiaoqi had already helped me block the thin man's knife. I hugged her and frantically blocked her wound. The blood gushed out with no sign of slowing down.
A trace of shock flashed across the thin man's face, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
"Brother, that position seems to be the heart. What if someone dies? Let's run first, run!" The fat man had a pale face and ran wildly in front regardless of anything.
The thin man seemed to suddenly remember something and turned and ran.
"Xiaoqi, wait a minute, I'll... call an ambulance right away." I helped Ren Xiaoqi sit down against the wall. I sat next to her and reminded myself over and over again that I must not panic, I must not panic. If I panic, something would definitely happen to Ren Xiaoqi. I had to stay calm, stay calm.
My hand couldn't stop shaking as I took out the phone. Before I could unlock it, it fell to the ground with a "pop". I picked it up in a hurry, and my left hand tightly grasped my right hand, which was still shaking uncontrollably.
"It's okay, I won't die, don't be afraid." She smiled at me, her face had lost all color, and her lips were terrifyingly pale.
After calling 120, I fell into a long wait. Novels are all lies. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't tear her clothes open. I could only press the wound with my hands, watching the blood seep out from between my fingers little by little, and seeing her face become paler.
This feeling was so terrible , her life was slipping away in front of my eyes, and I could do nothing but cover her wounds, nothing at all!
Why didn't I study medicine? Why didn't I learn some first aid? Why can't I do anything but cry?
"Zhiwei, don't cry, I'm fine." She was so weak that she could hardly speak, but she was still comforting me, "You know what? You have always been an angel in my heart, the most beautiful angel. With you by my side, I will be fine. I firmly believe it."
"How can I be an angel? If I really were an angel, I wouldn't have hurt you, I wouldn't have..." I choked and couldn't speak anymore.
"Do you remember the first time we met?" she asked me.
I nodded.
"That was the beginning of my pursuit of you." She told me about that period of time in a weak voice. "I was a person that everyone hated since junior high school. When I went to high school, I thought I would have a change of environment. As a result, as soon as I entered the class, I heard that group of people pointing fingers at me, saying things like 'That's Ren Xiaoqi', 'I've heard of her, I heard she's very fierce, no one in junior high school dared to mess with her' and so on. In fact, I have long been accustomed to this kind of life, since junior high school, or even earlier. I still remember that I walked up to you with my backpack and asked you in a bad tone, is anyone sitting here? You shook your head and continued reading. I thought you were like everyone else, who had heard of me and disliked me, so I didn't want to talk to you much when I sat down. But you turned around and asked me with a smile, my name is Cun Zhiwei, what's your name? Although I told you my name viciously at the time. But do you know? I have never forgotten that smile. You are like a ray of sunshine shining into my dark heart, making me no longer lonely."
I didn’t know, I didn’t know, I didn’t know that just a smile had made her obsessed for so many years. I didn’t know anything, and I still resented her, thinking that she was trying to harm me all the time.
"Can you smile at me again?" she asked me, her voice getting softer.
"Okay." I pulled the corners of my mouth and tried to smile.
"So ugly." She also laughed and slowly closed her eyes.
"Ren Xiaoqi!" I screamed heartbreakingly, but she never opened her eyes.
I didn't dare to try, I didn't dare to touch her too much, I didn't know what she looked like now, was she unconscious or... dead...
She is now just like her mother was back then, lying there in the same way, and looking lifeless.
If this is also a farewell, I would rather be the one saying goodbye to me.
