Si Xiang held me tightly and said, "Gao Ming, calm down."
My eyes were bloodshot as I replied, "Don't touch me!"
Si Xiang wrapped her arms around me and said, "Gao Ming, I feel the same way."
"I want to save Si Nian too."
"But if something happens to you, how heartbroken will Si Nian be when she wakes up?"
I stared at her in a daze.
Si Xiang took the knife from my hand, her voice trembling, "Gao Ming, I'll take you to see Si Nian."
Si Nian was rescued, but she had been submerged for too long and remained unconscious.
"She has a strong will to survive," Si Xiang told me.
I sighed in relief.
Si Xiang smiled bitterly and said, "In the last life, she actually always faced death."
"Gao Ming, I don't want her to die, and I don't want you to die either."
"Gao Ming, you must hate me; I really can't stand you staying by her side."
I listened expressionlessly to Si Xiang's confession.
All I could think about was Si Nian.
Si Xiang, Si Nian's twin sister, was also my wife in my previous life.
In that life, she always thought that I loved her.
Si Nian lay on the hospital bed with her eyes tightly shut.
I grasped her hand tightly and said, "Si Nian, wake up; it's me, Gao Ming."
"Si Nian..."
"Si Nian..."
Si Nian did not respond.
Si Nian has been sleeping for a long time. I stayed with her in the hospital for over a week until Old Zhang couldn't stand it anymore and forcibly took me out of the hospital.
Old Zhang had red and swollen eyes, his expression stern: "Gao Ming, you are aiming to be this year's Top Scholar in the college entrance examination; you are meant to achieve great things."
"Si Nian is waiting for you to join her for a television interview; don't let her down."
Old Zhang said a lot, but I felt lost inside and couldn't say a word.
Old Zhang sighed. "You promise not to fall behind in your studies, and I agree to let you come to the hospital at night to accompany her."
Old Zhang knew my stubbornness and didn't persuade me further.
While Si Nian was in deep sleep, several significant events occurred.
Ruo Ruo, who had been rescued, woke up and the next day had his parents report to the police. The following day, Ruo Ruo, forcing himself, proved Si Nian's innocence.
The second piece of news was that the girl who had been saved by Si Nian but slandered her was sued by the the Si Family.
Si Xiang presented a voice recorder. The girl's mocking voice came from the recorder: "Si Nian, aren't you so arrogant?"
"Keep being arrogant!"
"A little punk dares to oppose me?"
"How does it feel now?"
"To be pointed at by thousands and scorned by millions?"
"Go die!"
"You worthless piece of trash should have died long ago!"
... The voices from the recorder were clear. Previously, Si Nian had been labeled as "scum" due to "attempted rape."
And now, she is the "Great Hero."
More and more people are flocking to the hospital to see Si Nian.
There were even several times when I couldn't enter the ward.
In the end, the the Si Family decided to send Si Nian abroad.
Before leaving, Old Zhang patted my shoulder and said, "Gao Ming, study hard. Maybe one day, Si Nian will see you on television."
I quietly gazed at the empty bed.
Si Nian, you will definitely survive.
During my second year of high school, one morning I arrived early at the classroom and found a familiar figure sitting in my seat.
I stood frozen in place, staring blankly at that silhouette.
A few classmates had already arrived and were whispering among themselves.
"This person seems to be that Si Nian from No. 1 High School?"
"She really is quite beautiful, but isn't that girl from No. 1 High School a delinquent? She doesn't look like one!"
"Maybe she's changed..."
I eagerly interjected, "She is the best girl."
Several classmates turned to look at me in unison.
I took a deep breath, suppressing my sobs: "She is the best girl in the world, Si Nian."
Si Nian heard my voice and turned around.
On her beautiful face was that familiar mischievous smile.
Raising an eyebrow at me, she chuckled, "Wooden Man, you've become handsome!"
I looked at Si Nian, tears slowly blurring my vision.
Through the haze, I watched as Si Nian walked towards me step by step, her smile still radiant and bold.
She stood in front of me, extended her hand, and with her unique tone said, "Wooden Man, I've come to see you."
