Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 848: This Time She’s Really Dead
The person is... Ji Shanshan.
Ji Wei’s feet felt like they were nailed to the ground, unable to move an inch.
It wasn’t Gu Moqian, it wasn’t him... where exactly is he?
Seeing Ji Wei’s body about to collapse, Xi Nanfeng quickly supported her from behind. He could also see that the person pulled from the sea was not Gu Moqian.
The rescue team leader saw them approaching and regretfully said to them, "I’m sorry Mrs. Gu, Mr. Xi, we haven’t been able to retrieve Mr. Gu’s body for now, we only found Miss Ji’s. Unfortunately, because she stayed too long in the sea beyond the optimal rescue time, she has already stopped breathing."
Ji Shanshan was dead.
Ji Wei looked at the lifeless woman lying there, her skin even turned pale from the sea water, but she felt no joy in her heart.
This woman, as vicious as a snake and scorpion, entangled with her in past and present lives, was really dead this time.
But the cost was exchanged with Gu Moqian’s life.
If... if after being reborn she hadn’t sought Gu Moqian’s help, hadn’t interacted with him, would he still be alive and well in this world, instead of buried at sea with no body to recover?
She had harmed him.
A tremendous sorrow seized her, and Ji Wei felt she could hardly breathe, the darkness of a spinning sky enveloping her, and in the next second, she collapsed softly...
A month later.
After visiting the significantly recovered Old Madam Ji in the hospital, Ji Wei drove to the seaside.
Today the weather was clear, and she walked down to the shallow beach alone, sitting on the soft sand, gazing blankly at the calm blue sea.
A whole month had passed, and Gu Moqian’s body had yet to be found.
Was it swallowed by a shark in the deep sea, so that not even his remains could be seen? Ji Wei always thought this way, and her heart, as if dead, had become numb from pain.
For a whole month, rain or shine, Ji Wei came here every day, looking at this piece of the sea, her beloved fell into the sea, and hasn’t returned to this day.
Everyone believed that Gu Moqian faced certain death this time, even the news reports declared him dead, but Ji Wei still refused to believe he was truly gone.
He hadn’t fulfilled his promises, he said he wanted to have many children with her, how could he be dead?
Ji Wei no longer cried; she just waited quietly day by day. She told herself that as long as she didn’t see Gu Moqian’s body, she wouldn’t give up.
William walked down the beach towards the woman sitting by the waves.
Seeing that sad and lonely silhouette, he felt unsettled as well. If he could have stopped Ji Shanshan earlier, this would not have happened.
William stopped next to Ji Wei, then crouched down, quietly watching her from the side.
The woman’s expression was unusually calm, staring intently at the sea in front of her, and even with him next to her, she didn’t lift her eyes to look, as if he were air.
The calmer Ji Wei appeared, the deeper William’s guilt. He knew Gu Moqian’s departure was an almost fatal blow to her, and the reason she’s still standing is that faint glimmer of hope.
Not finding him was the best outcome.
"Miss Ji, I have something I want to tell you." After a long silence, William spoke with difficulty.
Ji Wei remained indifferent to the man’s words, not even blinking.
William knew this would be the outcome. He sighed, slipping the prepared envelope into her hand, "What I want to say is clearly written in the envelope, it’s about your mother."
