I watched his condition, not daring to make any large movements, only able to stand outside and watch him struggle painfully.
Wu Er stood beside me, seemingly wanting to rush in and stop him, but I forcefully held her back. In her eyes, I saw a fleeting disgust and resentment towards me, which did not escape my notice. I could only helplessly sigh in my heart.
“Go—don’t come in, go as far away as possible!” A thunderous roar rang in my ears. The man seemed to have seen us, but I heard fear in his voice and sensed a dangerous warning. My heart suddenly became clear—he was poisoned—
The alarm in my heart was heavily struck, and I quickly grabbed small Wu’s sleeve and turned to flee.
Flee—flee as far as possible, a voice in my heart constantly echoed, otherwise the consequences would be unbearable for both of us.

But small Wu seemed frozen, standing there directly, her voice coldly ringing out: “Miss, are you really not going to save him? Are we just going to let him die here? At the very least, we should call a doctor for him. If you had called a doctor when he was first injured, he wouldn’t be suffering so much.
Now that he’s struggling so painfully, if we don’t save him, he will definitely die!”
Her voice was cold and low, but each word pierced my heart. So this is how she had always seen me, so she had long resented me, so our genuine companionship could not compare to a man she had known for only three days.
I slowly lowered my hand, letting it fall weakly. Since you want to save him, since we are no longer of the same mind, since we are no longer on the same side, what does your everything have to do with me? What does your safety or danger have to do with me?
I let go of her hand, the pain of heartbreak, and turned away without hesitation, not wanting to see her walking in, not wanting to see her resolute figure.
