Chapter 277: Crazy decision

The world is getting further and further away and the G.o.d of death is coming closer and closer.  In the peaceful darkness, she could finally leave in her sleep without worry and painfully struggling.  Death was coming closer and closer, reaching a point it had never reached.

She was already very, very tired.  After all these years, this was her first time sleeping in peace.  Only, with this sleep, she may never wake up again.  However…..it wasn't important if she could wake up or not.  Seeing her elder sister throw herself in that man's embrace and hearing him say the words ”I will never let anyone bully you guys again”, even killing all those people without any principles…..She suddenly felt very happy, satisfied, and relaxed.  It was like that second, the pressure that covered her body suddenly disappeared.  After it disappeared, a heavy sleepiness fell over her, lulling her into a deep sleep.

She believe his words……He would protect elder sister forever, never letting her be bullied again.

As for her, she could finally stop struggling because she had seen her sister's happiness……Her sister's happiness was her happiness, which was the only reason why she struggled to stay alive.

Just like this…..Slowly leaving during her sleep.  She no longer needed to…..wake up again.

”Xue'er, Xue'er……”

In the endless sea of consciousness, a familiar calling sounded, waking her consciousness that was in a deep sleep.  The abyss of death was right in front of her and as long as she peacefully walked in, she would leave the abyss of pain, vanis.h.i.+ng into the deep dark abyss.  Only, this call made her freeze in her tracks.

Elder sister, the only thing she depended on and her only reason for living.

If she no longer woke up, then she would be…..However, elder sister is very strong.  She would be able to cheer up very quickly.

Only, she wanted to see elder sister……She wanted to see elder sister one last time and tell her goodbye……

In front of the abyss of death, she moved back and began to struggle.  Finally using all of her strength, she opened her eyes.

Her eyes slowly opened.  In front of her, there was a world of white……It was the white ceiling of the hospital room.

”Xue'er…..You're awake Xue'er.”

Her little hand was grabbed by a pair of warm hands.  She forced herself to look over and saw her elder sister.  She revealed a faint smile and said in a weak voice, ”Elder sister…..”

She was very weak, yet she even had to force herself to reveal that faint smile.

”Elder sister is here.”  Chen Xin secretly wiped the tears on her face and tightly held that hand that was as thin as a skeleton, ”Xue'er, you're awake…..This is great.  Listen to elder sister and don't leave me, alright?”

From what the doctor said, they already knew that Chen Xue had given up fighting against her illness, letting go of her own life.  She had chosen to calmly welcome death……That's right, three years ago, she was supposed to die.  All these years, she had been bitterly struggling.  For her, death was a kind of relief and release.  Only for her elder sister, she held on with incredible perseverance……Right now, her final wish had been fulfilled and she could finally leave…..

”Elder sister…..I'm tired, so, so tired.  I want to find father…..and mother.  Elder sister said that they were in heaven watching me, waiting for me.”  She partly opened her hazy eyes and spoked in a small voice that almost couldn't be heard.  Her eye blurred as if they could close at any moment.

”No….Xue'er, if you leave, what will elder sister do.”  Chen Xin's hands were trembling.  Even though she was forcing back her tears, they still silently fell onto the white bedsheets.

”Elder sister…..You have to promise me that you won't feel sad, alright?  After I leave, there will be someone to replace me in being with elder sister…..”

”Xue'er, you can't say such nonsense, you will be fine.  You're so strong, how could anything happen to you.”  Ran Chen Xin gently swayed her weak body, feeling the pain of ten thousand arrows pierce her heart.  Over ten years now, they had always been together, being with each other.  They were sisters, being half of each other's lives…..A large part of it.

Chen Xue forced herself to look over at Ye Tian Xie standing behind Ran Chen Xin.  She opened her lips that did not have any blood in them, using a soft voice that still clearly p.r.o.nounced each word, she said, ”Elder brother…..You said that you won't let anyone bully elder sister…..Big brother will keep his word, right?”

Suddenly, Ye Tian Xie's mind was deeply shaken.  He suddenly realized why this girl gave up on struggling and was peacefully waiting for death.

The rarely touched him, was actually moved by this young girl at this moment.  This girl whose heart was pure as ice, why was she being treated like this by destiny…..Were G.o.d's eyes blind…..Were they blind!

He bent down and gently nodded, ”I'll keep it, I'll always keep it.  I will protect you guys and never let anyone bully you……”

”Then let's…..pinky swear…..”  The pinky on her right hand moved.  She wanted to raise it, but she didn't have the strength to do so.  Ye Tian Xie reached out his pinky and hooked it with her pinky, ”Un, we'll pinky swear.  If anyone doesn't keep their promise, then they'll become a pig……”

Chen Xue revealed a smile, a smile that was so beautiful that it could intoxicate one's mind.  Ran Chen Xin was lying on the bed, sobbing in silence.
