"Li Zi, how do you feel? Can you still move?"

Annie looked at her nervously, her eyes filled with anger." You're finally awake! I thought you were going to sleep like this for the rest of your life? Ouyang Lizi, let me tell you, you've really grown up after not seeing you for a few days. Have you watched too many Korean dramas and wanted to learn how to drive a car? You've grown capable! You didn't come to look for me after such a big incident. You went to court death. Do you still treat me as your friend?”

"Annie, I…" Ouyang Lizi looked at her weakly, and tears began to flow down her face. She wanted to move, but she gritted her teeth in pain and couldn't help but groan,"It hurts!"

"Now you know how to scream in pain? It means that you can still be saved! Are you hungry? I've made some raw fish soup for you. I'll give you a straw.”

Annie opened a thermos box beside her and poured out a cup of soup. Then, she took out a straw and placed it into Ouyang Lizi's mouth.

"Be careful, inhale slowly. Don't choke!”

Annie held the cup carefully and looked at her thoughtfully.

The sadness in her heart was not as painful as Ouyang Lizi's injuries. She had always treated her as her own sister and always wanted to protect her. She did not expect that she had been busy with work recently and had no time to accompany her, but she had to go through such a tragic experience.

When Annie came to San Ya alone, the first girlfriend she met was Ouyang Lizi. When they met, Annie's legal aid law firm had just been established. She studied politics and law in university. After graduation, she worked as a lawyer in a famous law firm for three years. Later, because of her upright personality, she had a disagreement with the leader of the law firm. She felt that she could not tolerate someone knowingly breaking the law to protect the client, so she resigned and came to the south. He came to this small town of Baybin, where there was no winter.

When Annie first came to San Ya, she was purely here for a vacation. She didn't expect that after staying for a while, she would actually like this place that was closest to the ends of the earth.

Therefore, he invited a few classmates and friends who shared the same ideals to set up a legal aid law firm together.

Ever since she returned to the lawyer industry, her quick tongue had become even more unforgiving.

She usually liked to beat around the bush to warn Ouyang Lizi. She did not expect this disobedient woman to fall into the trap in the end.

Now that she had the chance, her words were like a machine gun, exploding in Ouyang Lizi's ears.

"Ouyang Lizi, you woman, what should I say about you? You just don't listen to me, but now, something happened, right? You almost killed two people. You're really bold. Where did you get the courage to steal someone else's car? You're really evil. You drove the stolen car and hit someone else's BMW. Not only did they not call the police, but they even sent you to the hospital for emergency treatment. Not only did they pay for your medical expenses, but they also hired special care to take care of you. They said that you had a hard life. I think your life is better than anyone else's. Other than knowing that bastard man!”

Annie was getting angrier as she spoke. She was angry at Ouyang Lizi for being so disappointing and causing her to be hurt both physically and mentally. She was also angry at that man for being so heartless. He actually left her in the hospital without asking and even ruthlessly chased her out of the house.

"You know what? The owner of the car you robbed happened to be one of my clients. I overheard him talking about the woman he described. Why did she look so familiar? Later, when he saw the photo frame on my table, he pointed at you and said that it was the woman who robbed the car. Only then did I know that something must have happened to you. After asking around, I found out that something had indeed happened. Do you know how stupid you were to do this?

Annie stared at her with her eyes wide open. She held the cup in one hand and pressed the other hand against the headboard, as if she wanted to teach her a lesson.

"Miss, be careful. The other patients are still resting early in the morning. Please don't disturb others. This is a hospital.”

At this moment, a nurse who passed by slammed the door twice and warned in a low voice.

"Alright, I'll be careful!"

Annie looked outside through the glass door. She retracted her gaze and placed the cup that Ouyang Lizi had not finished easily on the bed. She sat with her back facing the bed, holding back her anger. She refused to look at Ouyang Lizi no matter what.

" Annie." Ouyang Lizi had just woken up and was in a daze. Fortunately, she drank a cup of raw fish soup to replenish her energy. After being bombarded by Annie, the pain that she had deliberately sealed away was once again uncovered and overwhelmed her.

The tears that she desperately wanted to stop rolled down like a flood that had burst its banks. She choked. She didn't want to cry, she couldn't cry. She wanted to suppress it with all her might, but she couldn't resist the pain in her heart. The only thing she could move freely was her fingers. Therefore, all ten of her fingers clenched their fists tightly, and her long nails pierced into her palms. This was the only way she could express the hatred in her heart.

"Annie!"

Ouyang Lizi tried her best to calm herself down. Looking at her friend's profile, she knew that she was not alone in this world. At least she had a close friend who knew her pain and was willing to stay by her side. She slowly let out a long sigh. Her eyes were dull. She slowly stretched out her fingers and trembled as she touched her friend's hand.

"Annie! Thank you!"

Ouyang Lizi finally touched her friend's hand. Although that hand was a little cold, they quickly held each other's hands tightly. A warm flow warmed each other's hurt hearts.

"Li Zi!"

Annie's back was facing her, but her straight back was slightly bent, and her tense nerves relaxed. She slowly turned around and saw a tearful face.

"Li Zi, seeing you like this, my heart hurts even more than a knife!”

Annie leaned down beside her, sobbing to express the pain in her heart.

"Some people will be brilliant if they are given a little sunlight. Other people would want to take out their entire hearts just by coaxing them. In the end, he didn't enjoy the gentleness, but he didn't run away even though he was injured. Therefore, only when someone loves you can you love them back. If the other party didn't take any action, then he shouldn't be so infatuated. Love really couldn't be obtained through hard work. There was only one secret to not getting hurt: when there was love, there was love, and when there was no love, there was no heart. Love did not necessarily have to have a result, but it was indeed meaningful to the living. Sometimes, life was like a lotus flower that bloomed and withered in the morning and evening. Life was so short that it was like a dream. It was too late to even say love. How much time do we have to wait?" Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
