Chapter 43: Mentally and physically exhausted
“Miss Xu, it is too late. The operation should've been done two months ago. By delaying until now, Xiao Xin's cancer cells have already spread to his organs. At this stage, we are honestly powerless.”
Xiao Xin was pushed away. During the process, a nurse accidentally knocked the fake Xu Weishan aside and she fell down like a fallen leave. I ran over to hold onto her.
“Are you alright?” I knew she wasn't, but I still asked.
I wasn’t sure if she heard me. Currently, the fake Xu Weishan was acting like a robot. She stared fixedly at the ground without blinking. It looked like she wanted to burn a hole through the ground with her eyes.
After a long time, she harshly shoved me away and held onto the wall for support. Then, she swayed out of my sight with her black high heels.
From behind, she looked so lonely. All of a sudden, she appeared very weak. Could someone so evil have a soft side as well?
Under the current circumstances, I actually pitied her. Even if she was a murderer, at this moment, she was Xiao Xin’s sister Bei.
In order to prevent the fake Xu Weishan from hurting herself, I decided to silently follow her. Sure enough, she stared straight ahead and walked into the midst of the traffic. She disregarded all the cars that were passing by horizontally from both sides.
Some drivers swooshed by her, while some were so afraid that they desperately pressed on their emergency brakes. All of a sudden, the intersection near the hospital became congested.
A driver rolled down his car window and shrieked, “You want to die? Then die further away! Don’t bring me bad luck!”
The fake Xu Weishan didn’t seem to care as she continued to proceed forward. At this rate, she’ll either die in a car accident or she’ll get beaten up to death by furious drivers.
I apologized to the drivers left and right and ran to the girl who appeared to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown. I grabbed and pulled her onto the sidewalk.
“Do you want to die?” I completely lashed out at her, “If you were struck by a car and died on the streets, who will take care of Xiao Xin?”
“Xiao Xin…..Xiao Xin is going to die soon. If I’m dead, I can accompany him.” Xu Weishan whispered soullessly as she shoved me aside and wanted to dash back into the middle of the streets like a crazy person.
“Can you please wake up?!” I hollered.
I had to wrap my arms around the fake Xu Weishan’s waist in order to stop her. Deep down, I lamented. Why's she so strong? It took tremendous amount of strength and effort before I was able to drag her to a safe place, somewhere a bit far from cars and people.
I was honestly at my wits’ end. I didn’t know what else to do at this moment except to firmly slap her across the face.
After getting slapped, the fake Xu Weishan seemed to regain some of her spirit as she bitterly glared at me.
“Xiao Xin isn’t dead yet. There isn’t just one hospital. Why are you giving up already? Do you know what Xiao Xin said to me just before he lost consciousness? He said, he really misses sister Bei. He told me I had the same shoes as sister Bei. So he wanted me to find sister Bei and tell her that he really wanted to see her. If he wakes up and finds out you’ve disappeared, how disappointed would he be? How sad would he be?”
