Zuo Sichen and Yi Yehuan quickly finished their breakfast and went back to school. Only Leng Yan and Yu Xiaolan were left. Yu Xiaolan ate her breakfast slowly and didn't notice Leng Yan staring at her.
She unintentionally met his gaze. Yu Xiaolan looked away coldly, took a sip of milk, and got up.
"Are you full? Let's go then." Leng Yan was inexplicably excited. After all, this was the first time she was walking together with him after a year.
Yu Xiaolan felt much more awake when she stepped out of the door. She suddenly recalled many of her memories with Leng Yan and the others.
He was a little worried about the child in her arms and kept reminding her,"Be careful, walk slowly." Sometimes, he really wanted to hold her hand, but he didn't have the courage.
Forget it, he couldn't force her. He had to wait for Yu Xiaolan to let go of her past and accept him.
They didn't speak along the way. She looked at the bird flying in the air, free and unfettered. She suddenly remembered the time she was hospitalized. In the ward, she was lying on the bed with her head wrapped in gauze. Her complexion had almost recovered. He was looking at the birds outside the window peacefully. Those birds were just like the birds in the sky now. She was thinking:
If only her life could be like these free birds.
The two did not know that danger was slowly approaching them.
Leng Yan and Yu Xiaolan walked along the quiet tree-lined path. Not far away, in a small house in the mountains, a man with wine-red hair was holding a sniper rifle and aiming at Yu Xiaolan, who was taking a stroll.
As they walked, Yu Xiaolan's shoelaces fell off. She stopped and was about to bend over to tie her shoelaces when Leng Yan grabbed her hand and stared at her seriously."I'll do it."
After saying that, he bent down and helped her tie her shoelaces.
Yu Xiaolan was a little stunned. This man was actually tying her shoelaces?
Seeing that they had stopped, the corners of the man's mouth curled up. He loaded the gun and aimed at the target. With a bang, the bullet flew through the forest and pierced Yu Xiaolan's heart, who was caught off guard.
"Yu Xiaolan!" Leng Yan shouted her name in a low voice. He caught Yu Xiaolan's fallen body and looked at her pale face.
"Yu Xiaolan! Bear with it, I'll send you to the hospital immediately!”Leng Yan frowned. He picked Yu Xiaolan up and ran to his car. He did not want to lose her, he really did not want to!!
After sending Yu Xiaolan into the operating room, he grabbed the chief physician and said,""You must save her! He definitely had to! I beg you! And the child in her stomach!"
"Sir, please control your emotions. We will do our best.”The doctor was a little frightened. He quickly pulled Leng Yan's hand away and entered the operating theater.
"Yan!" Yi Yehuan and Zuo Sichen rushed to the hospital immediately after receiving the call. They saw Leng Yan sitting anxiously at the door of the operating room and quickly walked forward.
"Is Yu Xiaolan alright?" Zuo Sichen asked anxiously.
Leng Yan shook his head weakly." He's still in surgery…"
"Did you see who fired the gun?" Yi Yehuan asked.
"I'm not sure. The situation was too sudden…" He felt a little guilty. Zuo Sichen patted his shoulder."Don't worry, Yu Xiaolan will be blessed.”
" I'm worried about the child in her stomach…" Leng Yan frowned."That bullet was aimed at her heart. If it weren't for Xiao Lan's rotation, she might have already... But now, I'm more afraid that she's too fragile and can't keep the child..."
He owed Hades too much, and he didn't want to be unable to take care of the last thing he had…
"Is that person planning to kill Yu Xiaolan?!”Zuo Sichen asked in surprise. Why didn't he hurt Leng Yan and instead hurt Yu Xiaolan? What was his motive?
The lights in the operating theater were still on. There were many nurses and doctors who came in and out with their gloves covered in blood. They stopped everyone to ask about the situation, but they could only shake their heads.
Ten hours passed…
"Yan, you should eat something." Yi Yehuan advised with a frown.
Leng Yan shook his head weakly." Yu Xiaolan is in there and doesn't know what's going on. I don't have an appetite.”
Another two hours passed…
The lights in the operating theater suddenly went out, and the doctors inside came out one after another. When they saw it, they rushed forward anxiously. They grabbed the main doctor coldly and asked anxiously,"Doctor, what's wrong? What happened to the person inside??”
The doctor took off his mask."Although the patient couldn't hold on much longer during the surgery, the surgery was a success. He's now in the surveillance ward." As the bullet almost hit the heart, the patient's condition had to be kept in the hospital for observation.”As the doctor spoke, he took Leng Yan's hand and was about to leave.
Hearing his words, Leng Yan heaved a sigh of relief. A relaxed smile crept up the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, he thought of something and grabbed the doctor who had already taken a few steps away." Where's the child?!"?Could the child in the patient's stomach be saved?!”
"What?" The doctor frowned." There's no sign of a fetus in the patient's stomach. Are you sure she was pregnant before she was injured?"”
"What?!" "What did you say?!" Leng Yan grabbed his hand tightly. She doesn't have a child?"
He suddenly became so agitated that Zuo Sichen and Yi Yehuan quickly went forward to pull him back. The doctor quickly ran away when he saw this.
" What's going on…" Leng Yan was a little taken aback." Did Yu Xiaolan lie to us?"”
Yi Yehuan patted his shoulder." It's fine as long as Yu Xiaolan is fine. We'll ask her about these things when she wakes up." Let's go see her."
Zuo Sichen nodded.
" Lan 'er..." The King of Hell's deep and gentle voice rang out faintly. Xia Xilan frowned and opened her eyes. She saw the King of Hell looking at her gently in a bright place amidst the murky.
" Yan…" She wanted to get up and grab him, but accidentally touched his wound.
"Lan 'er, I'm already the one who left. You must remember to grab the happiness that has always been by your side…forget me.”The King of Hell looked at her with a faint smile, his eyes flashing with reluctance.
" Yan... I don't want to, I don't want you to go..." Xia Xilan cried and tried to stop him. King Yama frowned, and white smoke seeped out from between his eyebrows. Then he disappeared, and in Xia Xilan's eyes, it became another scene.
The lake water rippled, and the dark green water reached the sky.
A man stood by the lake with his back facing her. His back was so familiar. Xia Xilan sobbed as she slowly moved closer.
The man had a broad back, and his gray hair was reflected in the lake water.
"Xiao Lan." He didn't turn his head around, but only spoke in a low and magnetic voice. Xia Xilan stopped crying and looked at him blankly.
He stood there for a while and suddenly jumped into the lake.
Xia Xilan choked. Just as she was panicking, she suddenly thought of someone, Leng Yan!
The person just now was Leng Yan!
However, when she remembered, Leng Yan had already disappeared from the lake…
"Leng Yan!" Xia Xilan shouted and fell weakly by the lake. Her tears could no longer stop falling. Yan had left. Was he going to leave as well?!
"Leng Yan! Come out!" Xia Xilan screamed hysterically as tears fell like crazy. She looked at the bottomless lake in despair and suddenly heard the King of Hell's soft voice,""Lan 'er, do you know who you love now…I hope you'll be happy.”
" Yu Xiaolan?" An anxious voice called out to her. Xia Xilan slowly opened her eyes. The corners of her eyes were filled with tears. Seeing the anxious Leng Yan, she sat up and hugged his waist."Leng Yan! Don't leave me! I don't want you to leave!"
Leng Yan, who was hugged by her, was stunned for a moment. His heart began to warm up. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile as he gently stroked her long hair."It's okay. I won't leave. I'll always be with you.”
It turned out that at this moment, the hatred in her eyes when she looked at him was gone. Her eyes were already wet with tears. Although the wound on her chest was tearing and hurting, she still hugged Leng Yan's waist tightly. It was as if he would leave her if she let go.
"Xiao Lan, you still need to recuperate from your wound. Don't think about anything now." Leng Yan gently stroked her long hair. Looking at her pale face, even the lines on her face became gentle.
He hadn't tried this for a long time.
" Leng Yan..." Xiao Lan lowered her eyes." You won't blame me, right? Before this, I…" Before she could finish speaking, Leng Yan lowered his head and sealed her lips.
"I've never blamed you."
She looked into his amber eyes."Including me lying to you about having Yan's child?”Hearing her mention this, Leng Yan was stunned for a moment before he grabbed her hand tightly."Yes."
Xiao Lan recalled the words of the King of Hell in her dream." I hope you will be happy.”
Perhaps the King of Hell had seen her childish actions in heaven. Perhaps she was so persistent in not wanting the King of Hell to leave, which made him want Xiao Lan to be happy. Or perhaps, after going around and around, he already knew that the person in her heart was not him.
A child who had woken up from a dream should know the way home.
"Leng Yan, if you were shot by me at the engagement banquet and didn't wake up, would you regret it?”
"Regret what?" He smiled." I was willing to take that shot.”
"Why?" Xiao Lan choked.
"Xiao Lan, have you forgotten? I was the one who told you to get lost."”As he spoke, he hugged the person in his arms tightly and gently kissed her forehead."I'm atoning for my sins."
He had done too many things to let himself down for her. That time, he had told her to get lost, but he had felt heartbroken.
It was also because of that shot that he became more rational. However, he still fell into Aoi Yan's trap.
"Come." Leng Yan pulled Xiao Lan up from the bed and brought her to the big window. The afterglow shone diagonally on their faces. He held her waist and the two of them looked at the sunset.
"I've always looked forward to this kind of life, feeling the warmth of the afterglow with the person I love.”
Xiao Lan gently closed her eyes. The afterglow of the sun shone on her face, giving her a comfortable feeling.
"Xiao Lan, let's get married after you recover.”
At this moment, a blissful smile appeared on her lips."Yes."
She understood why she felt so uneasy when Yan proposed to her. She understood why no matter how good Yan was to her, there was still someone else in her heart.
