That night, Yu Sangwan stayed outside.

She sat there, thinking about what the doctor had told her.

"Miss Yu, this is just a routine blood report. There might be an error... but the possibility of that is very low. I suggest you have a detailed examination as soon as possible. If it's really a tumor, we need to determine its location, so we can take early treatment measures."

What else did the doctor say?

Yu Sangwan couldn't remember; her mind was in turmoil. She was only twenty, facing the possibility of death... How could she not panic?

At such a time, the only person she could think of was... Lu Jinxuan.

Picking up her phone, she saw a slew of missed calls from Le Zhengsheng.

But she ignored them all. Hesitating, she scrolled to Lu Jinxuan's number, took a deep breath, and dialed it.

Her heart was pounding, yet the outcome was as she expected: Lu Jinxuan didn't answer.

Yu Sangwan brushed her hair back, growing more frantic. The less he answered, the more scared she became.

What should she do? They had broken up! He really was going to break up with her!

"Ah..." Yu Sangwan pressed her phone to her heart, having not slept all night, and with her mind full of worries, she was exhausted.

No, she couldn't just wait for him. She had to find him!

Yu Sangwan drove straight to Donghua Mansion.

As usual, she tried to take the private elevator from the underground garage. However, when she placed her fingerprint on the scanner, it didn't work...

A 'beep' alert indicated she didn't have access to the elevator!

"..." Yu Sangwan couldn't believe it; her pale face betrayed her inner panic!

Unwilling to give up, she tried again. The result was the same...

"No!" Yu Sangwan shook her head, biting her lower lip hard. "Why, why?"

Too angry, heartbroken... these emotions mixed together as Yu Sangwan lifted her foot and kicked the elevator door hard.

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and Lu Jinxuan emerged with Tang Yueze. Tang Yueze paused, quickly excusing himself.

Lu Jinxuan stepped out, frowning at Yu Sangwan. His feelings were complicated; he knew she had been calling him... God knows how much willpower it took him not to answer. Lu Jinxuan was aware he couldn't hear her voice or see her...

"Lu Jinxuan."

Yu Sangwan looked up at him, "You... really don't want me anymore?"

"..." Lu Jinxuan was silent, his Adam's apple bobbed. "I'm sorry."

"Ah!" Yu Sangwan clutched her head in pain, "I don't want 'sorry.' Why does it have to be like this? Jinxuan, Mengmeng..."

Her inner fear led her to show vulnerability.

She had never lowered her head in front of him, but this time, she knew she was really losing him...

Yu Sangwan stepped closer, stood on tiptoe, and hugged him, "I was wrong... I shouldn't have been so willful, don't abandon me! I really like you... like you so much, Jinxuan, if I don't have you... I'll die, I really will die! I'm about to die!"

These words were like a bleeding wound, only she knew she wasn't joking.

And how could Lu Jinxuan feel any better?

He resisted his melting heart, awkwardly pushing her away, "Wanwan, no one dies just because someone leaves... I said, I'll still take good care of you, if you need anything, Yuezhe will help you... but we shouldn't meet anymore..."

"..."

Feeling his coldness and determination, Yu Sangwan was utterly in despair.

Tears in her eyes, she looked at Lu Jinxuan.

"Do you know? I put my dignity before you."

She spoke slowly, yet Lu Jinxuan didn't budge.

"Lu Jinxuan, even if I'm about to die... will it not make you come back to me?"

"Wanwan." Lu Jinxuan frowned, shaking his head, "Don't be like this..."

Deep down, he didn't believe she would die, "You're a strong girl, your life has always been tough, yet you live well... I believe that without me, you will still live well."

"..."

Yu Sangwan was silent, what more could she say? There was nothing left to say, even death... wouldn't bring him back.

At that moment, she was utterly wretched, like a stray dog with nowhere to go... resorting to using death as a threat to her once-lover, yet he... was indifferent.

Yu Sangwan sniffed, turned around to leave.

"Wanwan..." Lu Jinxuan hesitated, calling her name.

Yu Sangwan, with her back to him, shook her head and waved her hand, "..."

She said nothing because there was nothing left to say.

"Young Master." Tang Yueze came over, asking, "Should we go see her? Something seemed very wrong with Miss Yu! Could she be thinking of doing something rash?"

Lu Jinxuan frowned, recalling how she tricked him to the apartment... claiming once again that she couldn't live...

Lu Jinxuan shook his head, unsure if he was answering Tang Yueze or comforting himself, "No, she's not that kind of girl."

…

After leaving Donghua Mansion, Yu Sangwan drove to the seaside.

Having not slept all night, she was not sleepy at all now.

Waves crashed on her as her phone kept ringing incessantly. Yu Sangwan finally answered it, "Hello, Le Zheng..."

"Where are you?" Le Zheng's anxious voice blasted through the phone, "Stop messing around, tell me, where are you? Are you trying to make me worry to death?"

"I'm... at the beach." Yu Sangwan smiled softly, "I'm sorry, Le Zheng... You've been so good, yet I haven't been able to reciprocate and I've always made you worry..."

"Cut the crap!" Le Zheng interrupted her harshly, "I'm coming to get you right now!"

As the call ended, Yu Sangwan felt so tired.

Another wave receded, leaving a piece of broken glass by her feet. Yu Sangwan's eyes fell on it; she raised her hand slowly to pick it up, a different kind of gleam in her eyes...

She had a tumor, but still didn't know where it was.

She had no family left in the world... and the one she loved had abandoned her.

"Heh." Yu Sangwan laughed, she was a person discarded by the world... No need to wait for heaven to take her away. She'd end her life right now!

The glass shard rose, gently resting on her pale wrist.

Tearing flesh wasn't actually that painful! Compared to the time she cut for Lu Jinxuan, this was nothing. As blood slowly seeped out, Yu Sangwan felt so tired, she lay down, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds above her, closing her eyes...

In her ears, there was an urgent voice calling her.

"Wanwan! Wanwan!"

"What's wrong with you? Wake up!"

It felt as if she fell into a warm embrace, her body floating lightly as if lying on clouds.

Le Zhengsheng's tears streamed down; such a big boy, seeing the girl he loved cut her wrist, felt unbearable heartache.

What kind of despair does such a cheerful and strong girl feel to think of ending her life?
