3115 Sacrifice
When it came to relations.h.i.+ps, Xia Jinyuan had always been very straightforward. To Ye Jian, it was like the strongest wine that warmed her up. It made her drunker and drunker. She wanted to drink until her entire heart was burning. She was willing to burn herself to ashes.
“Yes, very much… I just want my brain to stop thinking of you,” she replied very softly. Xia Jinyuan was the strongest wine, while she was the lightest. She blew away the smoke on the man’s body and washed away the blood on him.
Xia Jinyuan laughed softly when he heard that. He coaxed her and asked her to say more sweet words that filled his heart. “What about me did you miss? Tell me.”
“I’m always thinking about what you’re doing. I think about whether you’re safe. I wonder if you’re thinking about me too.” Ye Jian said her thoughts softly.
Captain Xia… There was something wrong with him. Normally, he would be like this too, but he wouldn’t be so tired when talking to her.
Although she was saying sweet nothings, her heart was trembling. Ye Jian pursed her lips and felt a little uneasy. She wanted to ask… if something happened.
He sounded so tired…
If it was in the past, Xia Jinyuan would have replied with a roguish smile. However, this time, he didn’t. This time… he fell silent. Only the sound of shallow breathing could be heard from the other end of the phone.
This made Ye Jian even more certain that something had happened to him.
Ye Jian was a sensitive person. Xia Jinyuan was her lover and her comrade. His every move and action affected her emotions.
At this moment, even though there was a phone line between them and they weren’t face to face, she could keenly sense that something was wrong with Xia Jinyuan’s voice. Only Xia Jinyuan’s slightly rapid breathing could be heard. It was like an invisible sledgehammer that smashed Ye Jian’s heart, making it sink.
Time seemed to have pa.s.sed in silence. As his breathing became rapid, Ye Jian seemed to hear his soul crying…
Something had happened. Something had really happened on their side!
It was not a small matter!
Something big happened that she couldn’t accept and made him extremely unstable!
Cold sweat appeared on her palm. It was so wet that the phone almost fell from her hand. Her fingers were very cold. They were so cold that her blood had lost its warmth. She couldn’t warm her fingers.
In the silence, Xia Jinyuan’s low and hoa.r.s.e voice sounded. “Little Fox, J5 is gone…”
Cras.h.!.+
The phone suddenly fell from Ye Jian’s hand and smashed onto the ground. The blood in her body stopped flowing. Her heart was crushed by a heavy object, and it felt like her flesh was badly mutilated.
“I couldn’t save him. He died in my arms 30 minutes ago…” Xia Jinyuan, who was sitting in the dark fire escape of the hospital, curled up his long legs and pressed his back against the cold wall. He hid in a dark corner and raised his head. He forced his tears back again and again. He was filled with sorrow.
“He’s gone just like that… He pa.s.sed in an instant…”
He spoke in a low voice. The tears that he forced back into his eyes didn’t flow out. They continued to well up in his eyes.
Ye Jian picked up the phone again and started crying.
He was gone just like that… In an instant?
Why did he pa.s.s?
Why did he pa.s.s away all of a sudden?
“Little Fox, before J5 left, he told me that… he wanted me to apologize to you on his behalf. He broke his promise to you. He had never broken his promises before, but this time… he broke a promise.”
