C14 Please Let Me Go
He lay on the sickbed for a long time, until the last rays of the setting sun disappeared between the tall buildings in Demonic City.
I got up from the bed, painfully, and picked up the cell phone in my bedside bag.
After thinking for a long time, he pressed the confirmation button for the message that was going to be sent to Ou Jia Rui.
"Ou Jia Rui, I'm very grateful that you saved me time and time again when I needed it the most, but at the same time, I'm really scared of Ou Jingyi, and also scared of that trash of a man like Lin Qian. I'm just a normal person, I just want to properly give birth to my child, I beg you to stop making plans for my wedding, or else I'll have to resign and leave this place."
Half a minute later, Ou Jia Rui's reply was sent over. It was only three short words:
"I forbid it."
But I had made up my mind to leave them.
Tomorrow morning I'm going to leave the hospital, get my boss to resign, and then leave, taking all the savings I've accumulated over the years with me to another city to start over.
It is very easy to find both A city and B city, not to mention my mother's hometown. I randomly plan on going to a completely new place.
Maybe it was because I was too tired from the day, or maybe it was because there were too many things happening in my head that it took up too much of my energy. I didn't know when, but I lay down on the bed and slept soundly.
When he woke up the next morning, the doctors, nurses, and other doctors were all either standing or sitting in the ward.
I secretly regretted that I had forgotten to order a breakfast alarm clock last night.
"Although Miss Zhou looks to be in a very serious condition, it is only a superficial wound. If there is no discomfort anywhere else, you can leave the hospital today." As the nurse carefully changed the dressing on my forehead, I listened to the doctor and tried to figure out how to get out.
The moment the gauze was taken off, I couldn't help but cry out in pain. Ozara's eyes glared at me, and the nurse's hands trembled visibly.
"I'm fine, continue on." I comforted the nurse.
As if reading my thoughts, the nurse and the doctor walked out of the room.
Ou Jia Rui opened her mouth and said, "With your body's condition right now, it's not safe anywhere. Do you think Jing will let you go just because you're not by my side?"
I looked up at him quietly, as if I wanted to see through his eyes and see what he was really thinking.
"I have never wanted to help Jingjing bully you. If you stay by my side Jingjing, perhaps she might still be afraid and not dare to hurt you. I promise that I won't let you encounter anything like this again."
I don't know why, but I instinctively wanted to believe him.
But I couldn't help but tremble at the thought of Ou Jingyi's surging hatred for me.
"What do you promise, do you promise?" Was it Ou Jingyi who ordered my grandfather and uncle to beat me up, or did you have the heart to go to court with her? Every second I stay by Ou Jingyi's side, I'll be in more danger. " What happened yesterday aroused the most primal fear in me. For so many years I have believed in human nature.
However, after yesterday's incident, the resolute determination in my heart collapsed with a loud bang.
Ou Jia Rui pointed out the crux of the matter ruthlessly. "Where can you go when you have a big belly? Or are you planning on letting your child be born and leave with you?"
The baby is now the softest existence in my heart. I rubbed my belly and said, "Being in danger is better than not being able to live. Ou Jia Rui, just treat it as me begging you, please let me go. I promise that I will hide far away and not disturb all of your lives again!"
His last sentence, which he had suppressed for a long time, finally revealed his sobbing.
I had never seen a man like this, and even if I had slapped him in the face before, he would still look like a polite, modest gentleman.
But now that he's domineering and specializing in treatment, I can't tell which face is the real Ou Jia Rui anymore.
"Zhou Xinyao, I've already said that you're not allowed to leave. I can guarantee that you won't be harmed in any way." Ou Jia Rui spoke these words word by word.
Under the suppression of his powerful aura, I didn't know how to refute him.
And most of the time, silence was tacit agreement.
In the afternoon, Xuanzi helped me get discharged, and when I got back on Ojia Rui's Audi, I felt very absent-minded. In fact, it had only been three days, and everything that had happened made me feel as if three years had passed.
The back seat was piled high with nutrition items that O'Sarie had personally selected, so I sat in the passenger seat and let him drive me to my house. Demonic City isn't too far away from City A. After a few hours, we return to City A.
When I walked to the entrance of the residential complex and saw the landlady who was scolding me, I had a bad premonition.
As expected, the moment he got off, the landlady came over.
"Little Zhou, you're finally back. Come here, quickly move away. Auntie will help you pack."
I followed my aunt upstairs, confused. I didn't pay any attention to O'Jia Rui, who was following closely behind me.
Entering the rental house, although already prepared for the worst, the scene before me was still shocking.
All the furniture in the house had been smashed, so I didn't have any valuable appliances. The only laptop was smashed to smithereens.
As expected, all the clothes in the closet had been torn apart and the bottles and jars on the dressing table had been broken into pieces.
On the wall, a marker had been added the words "Little San, hurry and die".
I could bear it all, but when I found out that the picture of my mother, which I had so carefully placed on the table, had fallen to the floor, I could no longer control my anger.
My mother's picture frame had already been broken. Ignoring the fact that I had just been discharged from the hospital, I crouched down to rescue the still intact picture from a pile of broken glass. My fingers were lacerated by the glass, and I was still tugging at the picture frame as if I had no consciousness.
Ou Jia Rui, who had been silent on the side, pulled me, who was squatting on the ground.
She put my injured finger in her mouth. It was a practiced and intimate gesture that made me want to pull my hand away.
The landlady was still chattering away.
"Oh my god, I don't know what kind of sin caused such a thing to happen. Little Zhou, just treat it as helping Auntie. Hurry up and move out, I'll return the rent to you."
At this point, I could only nod my head.
It was obvious whose masterpiece these things were.
