I found some strength and shook him desperately. “What are you doing? What do you want!”
Then I collapsed on top of him, crying loudly. I just wanted to cry.
Brother Feng and the apartment office staff opened the door and rushed in. Brother Feng looked surprised and then glanced at the open window, understanding.
He immediately lifted Ye Zhengchen and ran towards Feng Zhong Hospital without checking his condition or asking me what happened. He seemed unnaturally calm, as if certain Ye Zhengchen could be saved.
I was lost, forgetting about the ambulance, just following him.
…
In the hospital, the emergency room doctor administered an IV and examined Ye Zhengchen.
I asked, “Doctor, how is he? Is his life in danger?”
He replied, “It’s okay, he can be saved. Go wait outside…”
I sighed with relief, sitting on a chair outside and rubbing my swollen ankle.
Brother Feng came out, wiping sweat from his forehead. “Fighting and disagreements are normal in a relationship, but do you have to go this far?”
I was silent, unable to express my feelings.
Brother Feng was furious, pacing around. “I’ve never seen such a heartless woman. He’s already like this, and you still can’t forgive him…”
My mind was in a mess.
Later, I was particularly impressed by Brother Feng’s reasoning ability. Just by seeing the scene, he discerned my conflict with Ye Zhengchen and my unwillingness to forgive him. Engineers indeed possess strong logical thinking.
Seeing that I remained silent, Brother Feng sat beside me. “Think about it, what if I hadn’t found him today? What if he had really died? Wouldn’t you feel any regret at all?”
“Don’t say anymore.”
I more than regretted it. Just the thought of Ye Zhengchen dying in my arms made me want to jump off the building with him. I never imagined he would take such drastic measures.
He usually didn’t seem so fragile.
“Alas!” Brother Feng sighed and handed me a tissue. “I don’t know what happened between you two, but I know he was devoted to you…”
When Ye Zhengchen woke up, he saw me, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he slowly reached out his hand.
I let my hand hang down by the bed and told him coldly, “Don’t do such foolish things again.”
