CHAPTER 51.5

Our distance was very close, but it still took me a couple of steps.  Once I arrived at his bedside, he held my hand and placed it on his chest.  Like a spark of lightning, I could feel his heart beating softly from my fingertips. His forehead was pale and a few strands of hair that had gotten wet from his cold sweat lay on top.  His face was sunken in and his breathing was faint.  He was skinny and weak, while surrounded by the smell of disinfecting alcohol.

CHAPTER 51.4

His face twitched in pain, and the machine began beeping non-stop.  A group of nurses rushed in led by the doctor.
The head nurse said to me quickly, “Miss Xie, the patient is not in a good emotional and health state.  It’s best that you leave.”  She guided me out of the ICU ward right away.  The head nurse came out after an hour.  Seeing that I was still waiting outside of the door standing with a cane while stretching my neck to peek inside, she let out a bitter smile and shook her head.

CHAPTER 51.3

I signed the critical condition notice letter.  I saw a man in a white coat with a full head of grey hair in his sixties rushing over to the emergency room.  Rene stood up and called, “(English) Dr. Gong!” Read more

CHAPTER 51.2

On Wednesday morning, Xiao Guan and other Jiu Tong employees came to see me, including Tao Xin Ru and Tong Yu Lian.  Ever since I stood him up, I hadn’t been in touch with Xiao Guan.  I heard from Emma that Tao Xin Ru had been following Xiao Guan around even more tightly to the point where he couldn’t do anything about it.  However, Xiao Guan still deeply resented me for turning him down, so I didn’t really want to see him, especially at times when I was at my worst.

CHAPTER 49

Seeing the way Li Chuan was, I suddenly realized how precious life was.  I decided that I would earnestly live every day; I would earnestly work at my job, earnestly learn latin dancing, and earnestly watch what I eat.  I would wake up early every day, and earnestly jog around the streets.

CHAPTER 48

I slowly walked towards the main entrance with Li Chuan. The chauffeur was already waiting for him.

CHAPTER 46

After getting back to Beijing, I only received one call from Li Chuan. It was only a few minutes long, asking if I had gotten back safe and sound. Afterwards, I never received a call from Li Chuan again. I didn’t call to look for him either.
