Ling Yunran's hand recoiled as if electrified, retreating instantly. He placed his hands on either side of her body, gazing at her with eyes filled with pain and remorse. "Xue'er, I'm sorry..."
Yu Xue forcefully pushed him away, unsteadily rising to put on her clothes. As she combed through her disheveled hair with her fingers, she said, "Isn't this exactly what you all wanted? The doctor said I will never have children..."
"No... that's not..." Ling Yunran hurriedly defended himself, but he was momentarily at a loss for words. He opened his mouth but ultimately fell silent.
Before leaving, he looked at her lifeless face, devoid of any vitality. He hesitated, then steeled himself to speak. "Xue'er, Fu Nantian... he had an accident. He lost too much blood. By the time he got to the hospital, he was already..."
Yu Xue stared blankly at Ling Yunran, as if she couldn't comprehend what he was saying.
Ling Yunran wanted to reach out and embrace her, but she pushed him away fiercely.
She buried herself deep under the covers, curling into a small ball. In that moment, both of them felt as if their hearts had turned to ash.
Yu Xue understood that Fu Nantian cared deeply for her; she had always seen it. She had imagined that once she recovered, if he didn't mind, she would entrust herself to him. Though her feelings for him weren't yet intense, she believed that over time, she would love him wholeheartedly.
However, now there would never be that chance again.
Yu Xue bit down hard on the bedsheet, exerting every ounce of strength to stifle her cries. A voice echoed in her mind: "The last person who cared about you is gone. What meaning does your life hold now..."
Suddenly, Ling Yunran received a call from the hospital informing him that Yu Xue was missing.
He was frantic and rushed to the hospital, searching frantically through every corner of the place until he finally found her on the rooftop.
Dressed in a white patient gown, Yu Xue stood precariously at the edge of the rooftop, swaying dangerously. The oversized gown made her appear even more fragile and thin, as if a gust of wind could carry her away.
Ling Yunran's heart leapt into his throat as he shouted hoarsely, "Xue'er, come down quickly..."
The wind howled on the rooftop, whipping around violently as her hair danced wildly in disarray.
He found it difficult to see her face, only able to catch the fleeting voice that seemed to come from the depths of the abyss: “I have lost everything—my family, my friends, my lover, and even my child…”
Ling Yunran felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if struck by a heavy blow: “You still have me!”
Yu Xue let out a derisive laugh, filled with self-mockery and sorrow: “What a funny joke. The thing I regret most in this life is knowing you…”
Seeing the shock and bewilderment in his eyes, a twisted sense of satisfaction surged within Yu Xue: “If I hadn’t met you, my father wouldn’t have died, Nan Tian wouldn’t have died, and the child… No, there wouldn’t have been a child at all…”
Ling Yunran was overwhelmed with grief, regret crashing over him like a tidal wave.
If only he had stopped Yu Lingwei from revealing that cruel truth to Yu Zhengtian in time, perhaps Yu Zhengtian wouldn’t have suffered a heart attack due to the shock; if he hadn’t made such an unforgivable mistake, Fu Nantian wouldn’t have come looking for him in anger and wouldn’t have run a red light in his impulsiveness, ultimately leading to the accident…
Ling Yunran felt as if his heart were being torn apart. He slowly stepped forward, moving quietly and unobtrusively to her side, cautiously reaching out his hand: “Xue’er, it’s all my fault… Please come down, okay?”
“Ling Yunran, do you love me?” Yu Xue remained motionless, staring intently at him as if trying to pierce through his soul.
Ling Yunran was momentarily taken aback. Yes, what did love matter? What difference did it make if he didn’t love her? Their relationship was already riddled with wounds, destined never to return to what it once was.
His moment of hesitation took on a different meaning in Yu Xue’s eyes. She sighed softly, her tone filled with desolation and despair: “You love Yu Lingwei, don’t you? It’s my fault for stepping in; from the very beginning, I shouldn’t have interfered and taken you away…”
Ling Yunran suddenly looked up at her with an odd expression and slowly said, “Xiao Wei… she is actually my biological sister; her original name is Lingwei.”
Years ago, Ling Yunran excelled academically and went abroad as an exchange student while still quite young.
When he returned home, he was shocked to find that everything had changed drastically—his father had passed away unexpectedly, and his mother had remarried while pregnant with his unborn sister. Left with no choice, he had to leave again for another country.
Later on, after achieving success in his career, he returned to develop his business back home. After much effort, he finally got in touch with Yu Lingwei and began their long-planned revenge scheme…
Yu Xue couldn’t help but feel astonished for a moment before being overcome by sorrow; tears streamed down her face: “Congratulations on your revenge… Now my father is dead and I’m left in this miserable state. Are you happy now?”
Yu Xue slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were filled with a deep-seated hatred. "Ling Yunran, then you can get lost!"
A strange smile twisted on Yu Xue's face as she began to retreat slowly, murmuring, "If I could do it all over again, I would never fall in love with you again—"
With that, she resolutely leaped into the air.
"Don't—" Ling Yunran let out a heart-wrenching scream, his voice piercing the sky and echoing across the rooftop. He reached out to grab her but only grasped at empty air.
A dull thud sounded from below, followed by a chorus of screams.
Only he remained, standing dazed in the spot where she had just been, speechless and hollow-eyed, staring at his empty hands as if his soul had been ripped away.
How could she be so cruel? Did she call him here just to make him witness her death? How could she...
Ling Yunran's eyes turned bloodshot, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.
"Brother! Are you crazy? Come down—"
Yu Lingwei rushed over and saw Ling Yunran in such a state of despair, looking like a soulless shell. She was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, screaming at the top of her lungs.
But at that moment, Ling Yunran saw no one; only endless despair and regret remained in his eyes…
