Zhou Peiruo’s kindness and warmth made Ji Mengtang feel an unprecedented sense of comfort after her injury.
I will translate the text into English:
“I think so too,” Feng Jinpei nodded. “Moreover, the doctor said that the police detected alcohol in Gao Zhongwei’s system, proving he was drinking, so everything is his own fault, and he can’t blame anyone else.”
“No! You—how can you be so cruel?” Ji Mengtang could not believe that they wanted her to ignore him in his paralyzed state and break up with him.
“I cannot accept your suggestion! If he is injured, I am also responsible. I cannot abandon him! If you have come to force me to leave him, then you can go back!”
Ji Mengtang covered her face and cried in disappointment and sorrow, having shed countless tears today, her eyes swollen from crying, making everyone feel heartbroken.
The oldest and most steady Yan Zheng spoke: “Don’t pressure Mengtang anymore. It’s difficult for outsiders to judge the rights and wrongs of emotional matters. Let her decide for herself! She knows what to do; we just need to give her encouragement.”
“Thank you, Brother Yan,” Ji Mengtang gratefully looked at him. They were all her good brothers, and she truly did not want to argue with them.
“You’ve been stubborn since childhood, and we’ve long known that persuading you is useless, so think carefully for yourself. No matter what, we support you!” Mu Shen laughed and ruffled her hair, no longer trying to change her mind.
“That’s right! No matter what happens, we’re on your side. If you have difficulties, don’t keep them bottled up, come find us, and we will definitely help you handle them.”
“Thank you! I will be strong, don’t worry. No matter what happens, nothing can defeat me, because I am Ji Mengtang!”
“That’s good!” Seeing her regain confidence and spirit, everyone was finally at ease and left.
That night, Ji Mengtang tossed and turned, thinking about the paralyzed Gao Zhongwei, and how he was doing now. Was he sad and sorrowful? Naturally! But angry and resentful?
Would he—hate her?
