Chapter 41 Nacht [No kiss, no...]...

The news was too shocking, and Quezhan thought of the people around him almost instantly.

She looked at Xie Xianshen, frowned slightly, and had no expression.

"You doubt me?" He sneered.

It turns out that in her eyes, he is this kind of person.

After all, there was no evidence, and Quezhan just had that thought for a moment. Meng Xie and Xie Xianshen, whether in terms of academics or because of her, could indeed be called enemies.

But she had no so-called evidence to doubt him.

When I rushed to the hospital, I felt even more anxious.

In front of the emergency operating room, several men and women were standing in a complex row, including Xun Ang.

It was almost midnight when Que Zhan arrived. Feeling cold at night, he grabbed Xun Ang's arm and asked her how she was doing: "What happened, An Ang? Why was Meng Xie so badly injured?"

Mingming saw that he was fine on the wedding day.

Xun Ang was startled by the coldness of her palm. She rushed over immediately as if she didn't care about anything and told her everything she knew.

Meng Ye was retaliated by Leo and his gang. Meng Xie is his brother, so he cannot just ignore it. The group of people hired by Leo were involved in a gray area, and they were all fearless. They accidentally injured Meng Xie and stabbed him in the stomach.

As for the other fatal knife wound on Meng Xie's ribs, Xun Ang didn't know about it.

But the cup is heavy.

She really wanted to cut Leo into pieces!

The light in the operating room was still on. I didn't know how long it had been on. I stared at the blood-red light, but suddenly I felt a sense of suffocation in my chest.

She didn't want anything to happen to Meng Xie.

"Wuwuwu..."

Outside the operating room, Meng's parents had not arrived yet due to work. There was another girl waiting with Meng Ye. She covered her face with her hands, bent over, and curled up her back into a small ball. Her trembling sobs were incoherent. Meng Ye held her in his arms and comforted her, saying not to be afraid, because her second brother was there.

She is the younger sister of the two brothers and the youngest daughter of the Meng family, Meng Tiyun.

"Second brother..."

Meng Tiyun cried for a long time before finally raising her face, clutching Meng Ye's clothes tightly with both hands, "Why haven't mom and dad arrived yet... Can you please call them soon, I beg you... Big brother must not be in trouble... Must not..."

Her sight shifted slightly, and she saw Que Zhan who was present, "It's you! It's you, bad woman!"

A sharp and loud voice suddenly rose in the silent corridor. Meng Tiyun walked towards her with messy hair and red eyes. She had lost her image at this time, and she didn't care about so much.

"If it weren't for you... my second brother wouldn't have been injured! My eldest brother... my eldest brother wouldn't be lying in the cold operating room, hanging in the balance of life and death! It's all because of you! It's all because of you! If my eldest brother can't get out of the gates of hell today... I will fight you to the death!"

Although Meng Ye tried to stop her and asked her to calm down, how could she stay calm when her loved one's life was at the gates of hell? She cried, tears streaming down her eyes. She grabbed something from her handbag and swung her arms wildly, smashing it at the lantern.

All the random small objects flew towards Quezhan, but she didn't move. The words like 'injured', 'uncertain life or death', 'gates of hell' that Meng Tiyun said seemed to have taken away her consciousness, and she lost her autonomy, like a machine without emotions.

When the hearing in my ears and the touch of my body returned to my blood vessels, my nose first swept over the light sandalwood scent on his body.

Xie Xianshen held her in his arms, hugged her with his arms, and used his broad shoulders to shield her from all external attacks.

The warmth of his palm supported the back of her neck. The closer they were, the more clearly she could feel his heartbeat vibrating in his chest. She was also confused, but it was his voice that told her that everything was okay.

"You are a damned star!" Meng Tiyun hated Que Deng so much that he could no longer control his emotions and yelled hysterically: "Anyone who gets close to you will have a bad ending!"

"You deserve to die--!"

Die.

Go to hell.

The hearing was suddenly deprived again.

Quezhan raised her head, and Xie Xianshen covered her ears with his hands to block out these unpleasant words.

She still heard it.

"You are a doomed man."

"You deserve to die."

Her heart felt as if the artery that carried blood to it was sever, twisting continuously, and her tendons were cut by a sharp blade, causing her breathing to become increasingly thinner due to the pain.

When she was a child, a fortune teller told her that she was destined to have misfortune.

The disaster stained with red is hard to overcome.

The husband also said that she had a bad fate and would bring disaster, but none of the elders in the family believed it. How could the only child in the family be a disaster? It must be a blessing from heaven. Even the grandmother who believed in gods and Buddhas broke the incense on the table with a blank expression after hearing the news. She disobeyed the gods for the first time.

Was the raging fire during her childhood the disaster that the gentleman was talking about?

"Shut up!"

Quezhan lost her strength and fell in front of the man. It seemed to her that it was the first time she heard Xie Xianshen get so angry.

"Ayun! Stop talking!"

Quezhan is the person he likes, and Meng Ye does not allow anyone to say that about her, even if it is his own sister.

The lipsticks, blushers, powders and all kinds of small things scattered on the ground were all smashed to pieces. Xun Ang sneered and kicked one of them away with all his strength, "Meng Tiyun, I understand how you feel now, but you shouldn't take out all your anger and negative emotions on Zhanzhan alone!"

"Is it her fault? Meng Xie was stabbed twice, and there is no clear cause for the fatal injury. When your brother wakes up, you should ask him carefully! See how he got the injury!"

"No loud noises outside the operating room!"

The nurse who came in a hurry reminded loudly, and the atmosphere on the scene calmed down.

Meng Tiyun suppressed his anger and resentment, his eyes were red as if blood was about to drip out, and he stared at Que Zhan.

She only knew that her brother had done so much for this woman, and it was all because of this woman that he became like this now!

Quezhan's hands were shaking, and his shoulders were trembling violently. He leaned into Xie Xianshen's arms, clutching his coat tightly, with his head lowered.

Her grandmother's illness was already unacceptable to her, and now, her friend's life was still hanging on the line and she didn't know the outcome. She really... really couldn't bear any worse...

Her falling tears stained his shirt, leaving a white mark.

Xie Xianshen thought that after she heard what happened to her grandmother, she would choose to lean on him and cry, but no, she did not rely on him as he imagined.

There were so many things that her body and emotions could not bear, so she didn't want to disguise herself so much. She just prayed in her heart that Meng Xie could survive and escape danger.

Two more hours passed, the lights in the operating room went out, and the doctor came out. Que Zhan was the first to notice: "Doctor, how is my friend...?"

She did not hide her anxiety and worry at all, and Xun Ang could not help but feel distressed to see her like this.

The doctor said: "The operation was successful and the patient is no longer in danger of death."

Finally, finally it was not the worst outcome.

Meng Xie was transferred to a special ward for observation, but he could see him lying on the bed through the transparent doors and windows outside the ward. The doctors and nurses were helping him arrange the medication and drips and monitoring his heart rate.

There were no lights on in the ward, so it was a little dark. She could clearly see Meng Xie lying on the bed with his eyes closed, wearing a ventilator.

"Doctor, the patient is awake."

The nurse's voice came vaguely. Quezhan raised her eyes when she heard it. At that moment, she happened to meet Meng Xie's gaze as he tilted his head to look at her. The weakness in his eyes seemed unable to support his current body. He glanced at her, closed his eyes, paused silently, and opened them again.

From observation, Meng Xie roughly said something to the doctor, and the doctor understood what he meant. When leaving the ward, Meng Ye and Meng Tiyun hurried over to ask the doctor about the situation. The doctor explained the medical situation clearly and told them not to worry, everything was normal.

Then he said to Que Zan, "The patient said he wants to see you. Remember, the patient just had the operation and must not be subjected to huge emotional fluctuations."

Meng Tiyun really couldn't understand and sneered. Her elder brother was such a fool. Why did he love her? He almost lost his life, but the first person he wanted to see when he woke up was not their Meng family, but Que Zan.

He opened the door of the ward and walked in.

Right and wrong, cause and effect cannot be changed. One of the two knife wounds on Meng Xie's body was indeed caused by her.

She sat beside the hospital bed, and when she saw that Meng Xie was safe and sound, the tears in her eyes fell unconsciously.

But he quickly wiped the candlelight, smiled as if nothing had happened, and said, "Are you awake?"

The heart rate monitor's line fluctuated along with his heartbeat, and the short beeps of the machine indicated his physical condition.

"Am I...scared?" Meng Xie also smiled. In front of Que Zhan, he always remained gentle to her.

However, he did not expect that he would behave so impulsively.

"Don't cry."

Quezhan had shed too many tears today. The matter between her grandmother and Meng Xie made her tremble every minute. She lowered her head and wiped away her tears with the back of her hand, and retorted softly: "No, you saw it wrong..."

"Zhanzhan, I'm sorry..."

Meng Xie apologized to her. They have been friends for more than ten years, and he knew that he could not hide this matter forever.

Of the two knife wounds on his body, the one on his stomach was indeed caused by the men hired by Leo, but the other fatal wound on his ribs was caused by him picking up the blood-stained blade lying on the ground and stabbing himself with it.

Whiteface pierces the ribs, showing no mercy.

He wanted to see Quezhan.

After that confession, he was completely rejected by her. She didn't even give him a chance to back down.

Trapped in love, he drank until he was drunk, calling her name in his dreams, fantasizing... When he confessed his love to her, he agreed to her.

She had to bet on herself, because only in this way would she be willing to see him.

"Meng Xie..."

Quezhan was angry, but the doctor told her that the patient's emotions should not fluctuate too much, so she tried to suppress her restless mind, "Please don't be like this... Don't be like this..."

"I don't want you to get hurt because of me. Have you ever thought about it, if you really can't come back from the gates of hell...what should your family, Meng Ye, and your sister do..."

His second knife wound was also related to himself.

But Quezhan felt even more confused.

She and Meng Xie had been friends for so many years, but he was not like this in her eyes. He was gentle, steady, and acted in an orderly and graceful manner. It was as if all of a sudden, he became a completely unfamiliar person to her.

"Zhanzhan..."

For so many years, he has been following the rules. He felt it was worth it after going crazy for Quezhan. "Don't cry... I just want to, want to see you..."

"Don't do anything that hurts yourself again." Quezhan held his hands tightly, hoping that Meng Xie could give her a promise, "Okay?"

"...Promise me, okay?"

She said that they were still friends and this relationship would not change.

But he doesn't want to be just friends. Is it because of the friendship accumulated over time? She can be with Xie Xianshen, have a wedding with him, and kiss him, so why can he?

Why.

The ward was very quiet that night.

Meng Xie looked at Que Zhan who was holding his hand tightly. He felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart. The hand that he had wanted to hold so much in the past, at this moment, he did not have the strength to hold it back.

He knew that if he shook her hand back, it would mean that he would agree to her request.

But he didn't want to see her sad for him.

-Towards

the end of the month, the turmoil that had been stirred up in Quezhan’s life some time ago seemed to have returned to calm.

Grandma's symptoms have not reappeared since that time, but she still asked a doctor to diagnose her. The doctor said that Ms. Ye's Alzheimer's disease was mild, and it was normal to forget one or two times occasionally. This disease is most terrifying when it reaches a serious stage.

Now, medication and memory prevention must also be adhered to, which will provide appropriate buffer against the disease.

But I finally felt relieved.

My grandmother looked the same as before, and I still remembered her, but it suddenly occurred to me that that day was as unreal as a dream.

Meng Xie's body has been recuperating for more than a week, and his mood has been relatively stable so far. Quezhan has also visited him during this period. Although before leaving, Xie Xianshen would deliberately hold her wrist and look at her without any warmth in his eyes.

What's the point of looking at her? If he looks at her, she has to go.

This relationship that Meng Xie had for her should not have started in the first place, and it would be better for everyone if it ended decisively and hastily.

She hoped that he would stop being obsessed with her. She was not the only woman in the world and there were many women better than her. There was no need to waste his time on her. It was not worth it.

"Please don't force me, Meng Xie."

"...Please."

Quezhan retreated again and again, and Meng Xie finally gave in. He promised her that he would not do anything to hurt himself again.

As for the culprit who stabbed him, Leo, he will inevitably be held accountable. However, she had no time to waste looking for such a person during this period. The "Charme romantique" magazine jointly promoted by Rokori and Levi was about to be released, so she devoted her energy to her grandmother and work, and the small matter of finding someone was left to Xie Xianshen.

He had the time to look for her, but I still thought he had become kind.

Until his message came.

X: [This guy is quite good at running. 】

Leo is quite good at running, and since he hurt someone, he started planning his escape.

He is of Chinese and British descent, but his nationality is British. People who can stir up trouble can stir up trouble wherever they go. Some time ago, he was restricted from leaving the country because of an unresolved civil case. Unable to escape the country, he could only circle around in the country and try to avoid the limelight temporarily.

After traveling through more than 30 cities and hundreds of land and water routes, we finally caught sight of the man in Zhongguancun, a place with rugged terrain in Yuewan.

Freiheit: [Bring the man here. I've been wanting to meet him for a long time. 】

X:【I’m not free enough to help my love rival. 】

The reason she looked for Leo was because this man had hurt her friend, and he was right next to her, so how could she just sit there and watch him run away?

Quezhan also understood that Xie Xianshen was asking for payment from her.

She typed: [Thank you. X: It’s useless. 】

He immediately rejected the official and polite terms.

Quezhan knew what he was thinking and replied without hesitation: [No, no...]

As soon as the last word was typed in pinyin, his message was delivered to him.

She saw it and was slightly startled.

X: [Say you love me. X

: Ten million for one sentence makes me happy. 】
