I was leaving anyway, giving up on that scumbag. Before I went, I might as well indulge myself.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment.
"Okay, I promise you." I sighed in relief.
Lu Jingxing quickly transferred the money to my account.
With the money in hand, I immediately arranged for Gao Yu's hospitalization.
Gao Yu was admitted to a VIP room, receiving the best treatment available. My condition worsened as well, and I stayed with her.
Using the money Lu Jingxing gave me, I ordered two handsome male models to keep us company in the hospital every day, each time different. There were athletic guys with dark skin, innocent college boys, cute little pups, and curvy "mama boys." These male models took turns entertaining us every day, and Gao Yu's mood visibly improved. But what was meant to come would still come.
"Lin Xia, I'm so tired. I wanted to leave with you, but now it seems I'll have to leave you here in this world for a while."
I couldn't hold back my tears any longer; they streamed down my face. Even though I knew we would meet again, it was still hard to let go.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'll be back soon."
Gao Yu smiled weakly, her hand gradually loosening its grip.
Watching my best friend "die" before me, I couldn't help but embrace her gradually cooling body and weep uncontrollably.
Suddenly, a cold mechanical voice echoed in my mind.
"System Prompt: Connection successful."
"System Prompt: System signal abnormal disconnection; due to unavoidable factors, host Gao Yu has suffered from cancer pain. Compensation of fifty million cash has been awarded to host Gao Yu."
Though I was heartbroken, I couldn't help but ask the system about the fifty million cash. "What about me?"
"Lin Xia's side is functioning normally; pain perception has been blocked; no special compensation."
I felt a bit disappointed. It seemed I could only rely on my best friend to support me now. The thought of having fifty million in the real world made me look forward to life ahead. That scumbag wasn't worth my effort; I would treat these five years as just a dream.
I looked at the constant news notifications on my phone—Wen Xuan and Yun Xiaoxiao were flaunting their love on their way back to Beijing, accepting interviews and admitting they were living together.
In the photos, Wen Xuan wore a bright smile while Yun Xiaoxiao nestled beside him like a little bird seeking comfort.
I scoffed and tossed my phone aside.
Gao Yu's body had already been sent to the funeral home, and I sat alone in the empty hospital room, feeling an overwhelming emptiness inside.
Suddenly, my phone rang.
It was a call from Wen Xuan.
I hesitated for a moment before answering.
"Hello?"
"Gao Yu, where are you? Why is the house such a mess? I’m bringing Xiao Xiao home tomorrow, so you need to clean everything up," Wen Xuan's voice was tinged with impatience.
I took a deep breath and replied calmly, "Wen Xuan, Gao Yu is dead."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.
"What did you say?" Wen Xuan's voice was filled with disbelief.
"I said, Gao Yu died this morning, from cancer."
"Impossible! She was fine just a few days ago!"
"Are you sure? When was the last time you saw her?" I countered.
Wen Xuan's voice dropped, "…half a month ago."
"Half a month ago, when you drove away, Gao Yu was lying by the roadside. You passed right by her without recognizing her," I stated coldly.
"Where… where are you? I want to see you!" Wen Xuan's voice trembled.
"I'm at the hospital; Gao Yu's body has just been taken away."
