Torrents of rain poured down, lightning and thunder crackled in summer, and the sharp, harsh brakes of vehicles rose and fell on the downtown streets, accompanied by the shrill cries and shrieks of drivers.
âBrother, be careful!â
Bangââ!
Li Jiaâs body fell to the ground like a broken kite!
Her mournful exclamation was drowned in the shrill sound of the brakes, and it all happened in a flash of lightning.
There were noisy screams and vehicle horns all around, as well as the sounds of dialing 120 and 110.
Her body fractured from the violent impact. The rain pelted her face and her eyes looked at the gentle man standing frozen in the middle of the road, drenched in rain, his always gentle and warm expression slowly disappearing.
His handsome face gradually contorting with fear and desperation. A beautiful girl in a white dress was still sitting paralyzed by his feet. She seemed to be frightened by the sight in front of her. With her big watery eyes, she held Lu Yichenâs trousers, trembling and shivering.
Lijia lay quietly on the cold, damp ground, not wanting to die in pain, she curled her lips and slowly closed her long, butterfly-winged eyelashes to make her death look better.
A warm scarlet stream rolled down below Li Jiaâs body, and it spread with the rain. It was particularly shocking. That was her only sweetness, and now she would die with her irresponsible mother.
She hadnât told him yet that she was having a baby.
That was good, she was too tired to love anymore. There were two lives to return the favor she owed to the Lu family.
City Centre Hospital
âJiajia-! Donât die! Donât die! Brother wonât let you die! Do you hear me clearly!â
The magnetic sweetness of his voice changed to an incoherent tone as Lu Yichen hissed and pulled at the medical staff like a madman clinging to Li Jiaâs cold body. âSave her! Save my sister!â
The manâs delicate, gentle face turned ghastly. His voice a hoarse, shrill hiss as he desperately pleaded with the doctor.
âMr. Lu, Iâm sorry for your loss.â
The doctor was also helpless, the handsome man in front of him was Lu Yichen, the noble son of the Lu Group, a giant figure who would make the whole empire tremble when his feet were stomped, so the hospital did not dare to force him out directly and could only explain over and over again.
âYouâre full of nonsense! Lijia is not dead! Sheâs not dead!â Lu Yichenâs eyes were bloodshot, and he struggled like a madman, his tidy clothes in disarray, his whole being like an insane person who had lost his mind.
âSirâŠâ
âHelp her! Help Jiajia!â
It was all him! He killed Jiajia! If it wasnât for saving him, Jiajia would not die!
âSir, your sister and the fetus in her abdomen have no vital signsâŠâ
âYichenâŠâ Xia Yuxuan, who changed into dry clothes carefully pulled Lu Yichenâs sleeves and motioned him to calm down.
Lu Yichenâs eyes shrank, and he stared at the doctor, opening and closing his mouth in a daze. Suddenly, it seemed that someone choked him. âYouâŠwhat did you say?â
âYour sister has no vital signsâŠâ
âNot âŠâŠ not this sentence!â Lu Yichen was as if he had heard incredible news, his eyes looking at the pale Li Jia on the hospital bed, âJia Jia is pregnant âŠâŠâ
âYes âŠâŠ yes.â The doctor looked at him warily, in case he lost control.
âPregnant? But Yichenâs younger sister is not married and has no boyfriend. How could she get pregnant?â Xia Yuxuan muttered sweetly, seemingly concerned because of Li Jiaâs injustice.
âJia Jia usually looks clean in her private life. I didnât expect itâŠâ Her muttering was tantamount to telling others that Li Jia was unscrupulous, which embarrassed the medical staff on the side. After all, she was dead.
âPa!â Lu Yichen suddenly slapped Xia Yuxuan.
Xia Yuxuan couldnât stand, she backed a few steps in her high heels and fell to the ground. She seemed shocked, covering her face. Her eyes immediately turned red, and tears flowed silently. âYou hit meâŠâŠâ
âGet out!â Blue veins burst in Lu Yichenâs forehead, and he buried his head in Li Jiaâs neck, whimpering.
Pain and despair swept across the world.
Jiajia is dead.
She is dead.
And his child!
That was his child, it was his.
In fact, that night⊠it was not what Jiajia thought.
But now she was dead! She was dead!
He could never tell her all this again.
âJiajia!
âJiajiaââ !â Lu Yichen suddenly woke up from his deep sleep.
