Chapter 4 (2/2)

She had dedicated to him the purest feelings of a young girl, but her love had withered away in her most beautiful years.

“How’s Auntie doing now?”

“The doctor said that she has a month at most!”

Su Mubai frowned. “Is her condition that bad? Should we transfer her to Shanghai to take a look? The best oncologists are there. I know a few specialists. Why don’t we go for another consultation?”

“No need. It was already too late by the time we discovered it. It doesn’t matter where we go. My mom doesn’t want to go. I want to follow her wishes!”

She looked down at her wristwatch. Two o’clock. There were another 30 minutes to the scheduled time. It would take 20 minutes to get there if there was no traffic jam.

“Big Brother, I still have something to do. I have to go. How about you? It’s better not to go up! My mom hates you. If you visit her, you’ll only get scolded…”

She turned around, unwilling to stay any longer. She tried to escape, but her hand was caught.

“Jin, are you avoiding me?”

The single word ‘Jin’ made her heart twist excruciatingly.

That nickname was what he used to call her.

“No!”

She broke away, not daring to look him in the eye.

“I really have something on!”

“I’m here mainly to talk to you…”

“Maybe next time. I’m in a hurry…”

She shook him off and strode away. He chased a few steps after her but eventually stopped.

At this moment, he didn’t know that because he didn’t go after her, it caused the plan he’d meticulously laid out for many years to fall apart in the end. As a result, he lost the woman he loved the most forever.
