Chapter 102: Top of the Building

“Brother Liu, thank you so much for rescuing us once again in our time of need.” Zhang ShengLi walked over to Liu Gan to express his gratitude, but his expression was full of pain and misery.

“I’m so stupid! It was all due to my stupidity. I caused his death…” Zhang ShengNan said to Liu Gan while she burst into tears.

If only she had listened to Liu Gan’s advice and not argued, then it wouldn’t have escalated to the point where she felt like she had lost self-respect. There was no medicine to treat regrets. The fact was, Hu Rong had died, her eyeball had been ripped out, her face scarred and torn, and her body severely wounded, so sooner or later she would die. Everything was too late to regret.

Liu Gan ignored Zhang ShengNan and walked around to investigate. He had to make sure it was safe, and then he headed back to the doorway. This result was just as he had suspected. He just hadn’t realized that she would bring them down so soon, but he wouldn’t say such things during this time.

“Brother Liu, don’t go!” Zhang ShengNan shouted at Liu Gan.

Liu Gan stopped in his tracks, turned his head around, and coldly stared at Zhang ShengNan. Since this was caused by her stupidity, he did not have a hint of pity for her.

“I know it was my stupidity, naivety, and stubbornness that caused all of this. I am unforgivable! So thank you for saving my brother. I know that I have no right to ask you for anything, but please, I beg you to bring him along. He has always listened to you, so he isn’t stupid like me.” Zhang ShengNan begged Liu Gan in her final moments.

Only after this tragic accident, did Zhang ShengNan finally wake up. She knew that her stupidity caused the death of her beloved boyfriend. So, she didn’t want to drag down her brother too.

“ShengNan don’t say anymore. No matter what happens, I won’t leave you.” Zhang ShengLi interrupted his sister.

“I am guilty of everything! Brother, you have to listen to Brother Liu from now on and don’t be stupid like me.” Zhang ShengNan replied to her brother. Then, she pulled out a hidden knife and cut open her neck.

“ShengNan!” Zhang ShengLi suddenly shouted and rushed over, but it was all too late. She had cut open her carotid artery, so fresh blood spewed out from it. Now it was impossible to save her.

“NO! NO!”

Zhang ShengLi screamed loudly and applied pressure onto ShengNan’s carotid artery. But, the blood didn’t stop pouring out from the opening. After a few minutes, the blood stopped pouring, but Zhang ShengNan’s eyes were gray and lifeless.

Zhang ShengLi kneeled on the ground unable to lift his head. He could only helplessly cry. Even though he knew that his sister was at fault, regardless he would still love her because she was all he had left. Seeing her die this way in front of him, he couldn’t accept it. It was too painful.

“Maybe she was forced out of this game, and she returned to the real world. My condolences, so you don’t need to worry.” Liu Gan couldn’t bear to see Zhang ShengLi so grieved and tried to console him.

“Really?” Zhang ShengLi suddenly had a glint of hope in his eyes.

“With this type of game, no one can be sure?” Liu Gan shook his head.

Zhang ShengLi didn’t continue the conversation, but he only sat on the floor and stared at the bodies of ShengNan and Hu Rong. He still felt that this was all too surreal. Did they really die? Or did they return to the real world?

“I’ll give you ten more minutes to mourn. During this time, I want you to think carefully if you want to follow me. I will bring you, but if you choose to stay and continue mourning, I will respect your decision.” Liu Gan patted Zhang ShengLi’s shoulder a few times as he prepared to leave.
