Staring at him blankly, her eyes getting blurry, she suddenly threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.
Nangong Lie sighed and hugged her tightly, "Okay, it's all over."
She cried until she was hurt, cried until she was in pain, and cried until she forgot herself. The huge stone on her chest was weighing her down and she couldn't breathe. She didn't know how long she could hold on.
Nangong Lie just held her in his arms, letting her cry and wet his valuable shirt. He stroked her back distressedly, and couldn't help but blame her, "Idiot, I told you a long time ago that no one will be grateful to you.
"
Hearing his words, Xia Lan cried even harder. Nangong Lie had no choice but to surrender, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore."
It wasn't until she was tired of crying that he hugged her and sat in the car, carefully fastening her seat belt.
Xia Lan pressed his head against the car window, his eyelids were so heavy that he could no longer lift them, so he simply closed them.
The car started and went very fast, as if I wanted to get out of here right away.
She was sleeping so deeply that she didn't even realize she was being held.
Gently putting her on the bed, Nangong Lie found the medical kit, first disinfected and then bandaged her wounds, then tucked in the quilt and stood at the head of the bed, quietly staring at her sleeping face.
A tear slowly slipped from the corner of her eye. Unable to help himself, he stretched out his fingers to gently wipe it away for her.
"What a stupid woman..."
…
Early in the morning, Nangong Lie personally cooked and prepared a hearty and nutritious breakfast. As soon as it was put on the table, the phone rang. He picked it up lazily and asked, "Hello?"
On the other end of the phone, a low and serious voice said, "Your Highness..."
When Xia Lan got up, there was no trace of Nangong Lie in the villa. When she walked into the restaurant and saw the breakfast he had prepared, she smiled movedly.
At this time, the doorbell rang.
She blinked and walked over, "Who is it?"
"I'm looking for Mr. Nangong."
She opened the door without doubting his presence, "Nangong Lie isn't here..."
Suddenly, a tall man flashed in, and before she could see clearly, he covered her mouth.
"Well..." Her eyes widened in horror, and she slapped her hands vigorously.
The other party was unmoved, took out the injection that had been prepared long ago, and injected it into her arm. Xia Lan only felt a pain in her arm. After a while, her head began to become dizzy. Gradually, she stopped struggling and remained motionless.
The man dragged her out.
Hospital.
"I can give her a medical abortion, but as for you...I can't do it."
"Don't worry, she is an orphan, and no one will cause trouble for you. Even if she is found out, it will be a medical accident at best."
"I...I can't do this, it will cost her her life."
The sound of intermittent conversations penetrated her ears. Xia Lan's brows trembled a few times, and her consciousness slowly recovered. She wanted to open her eyes, but her body seemed to be out of control and she couldn't move at all. Only her brain was working on its own.
When she heard the last sentence clearly, her whole body froze.
Whose life is it? Hers?!
"Don't worry, she has already found someone to sign the consent form. If you read today's newspaper, you should know the identity of that person. He will bear the blame. What are you afraid of?"
"...I can't kill anyone!"
Xia Lan felt a sudden chill as she heard it. There was no doubt that the person they were talking about was her.
