The entrance to the milk tea shop was in complete disarray.
Screams from the crowd were incessant, and many people had already made calls to the police and ambulances.
Xu Musen was holding Yao Mingyue as they sat on the ground, and at this mont, blood seeped from the corners of Ming Yue's mouth, a sign that her internal organs had been damaged by the impact.
Her face was pallid, and her whole being seed to have lost consciousness.
"Ming Yue, you can't sleep, the ambulance will be here any minute, hold on!"
Xu Musen himself was injured all over, but right now, looking at Yao Mingyue in his arms, this was the first ti he felt such panic since his rebirth.
At this mont, it was as if history was repeating itself from his past life, only this ti, it was Yao Mingyue who lay in a pool of blood.
Yao Mingyue, in a daze, was gradually brought back to reality by Xu Musen's voice and struggled to open a sliver of her eyes.
Seeing Xu Musen's anxious yet unhard appearance, she managed a sorrowful smile.
"It's... good... you're alright..."
Yao Mingyue couldn't even finish these few words before blood choked her and flowed from her mouth.
"Don't talk, just breathe slowly, the ambulance will be here soon."
Xu Musen reached out gently to wipe the blood from her lips, looking at her pale cheeks, this was the first ti he helplessly watched soone's life seemingly slip away.
In his last life, it was he who had fallen, but he would rather it be him again this ti; the tornt of watching her suffer was even more unbearable.
Yao Mingyue tried hard to lift her hand to caress his cheek.
Musen caught her hand and slowly placed it on his own face, the girl's soft yet ice-cold hand seed to be slowly losing its last bit of warmth.
Her heart felt like it was being stabbed over and over.
"Musen... am I... going to die..."
At that mont, Xu Musen's cheeks were trembling slightly, "Don't say stupid things, you'll be fine!"
Yao Mingyue looked at him through her blurry vision, and she seed to see the panicked version of herself from her past life.
She moved her pale lips into a smile: "So this... is what you... felt back then..."
For the one she loved most, even if it ant dying for him, she didn't feel too sad.
Even a sense of relief, relieved that she was the one to go first, because if he had been the one to leave, she probably would have gone mad.
It just felt like such a pity, in case she really wasn't here anymore.
How many regrets that would be.
She looked at Xu Musen, wanting to force her eyes open to take a few more glances at him, grateful for this one more life they had been given.
But they had yet to really be together in this life, and if she were to fall at this mont, she didn't know if there would be another chance.
And if she were gone, what if soone bullied Xu Musen in the future?
Yet, in the end, her vision gradually beca blurry, and she turned again to An Nuannuan, who had been standing by their side all along.
"Nuannuan... "
Yao Mingyue seed to find a trace of strength and slowly reached out her hand, mories seed to resurface in her mind, recalling how in her last life she also lay confused, and the last image she had was also of her sitting beside...
"I'm right here."
An Nuannuan knelt before her, taking Yao Mingyue's cool hand tenderly in her own.
At that mont, Nuannuan wasn't her usual ditsy self, her voice gentle and clear, making the pain feel lighter, and she was like a big sister in her twenties or thirties.
Yao Mingyue, looking at her, naturally still harbored enmity towards An Nuannuan.
After all, if it hadn't been for her sudden intrusion, she would have been able to reunite with Xu Musen slowly.
But as more mories ca back, her animosity started to blur.
Because she knew that the real reason Xu Musen left her had always been herself.
In contrast, it was An Nuannuan's presence, when Xu Musen needed comfort and understanding the most, that shone like a beam of light, gifting him the most precious warmth.
Moreover, Yao had always felt that An Nuannuan, with her ditsy charm, seed tailored just for Xu Musen when he needed it the most.
Could she, like herself, rember sothing too?
Yao Mingyue looked at An Nuannuan.
She took several deep breaths before slowly leaning closer and whispering weakly, "Tell ... do you... know sothing too..."
Yao Mingyue's voice was very low and frail, yet it was also extrely earnest.
She wanted to know the answer.
If An Nuannuan had the sa mories as her, then many things would start making sense.
An Nuannuan, holding her cold trembling hand, had eyes so clear and pure.
In that mont, looking at Yao Mingyue, she slowly nodded.
Yao Mingyue was stunned for a long while, then coughed weakly, letting out a feeble laugh.
"I knew it..."
The pale cheeks of Yao Mingyue seed to flush with excitent.
So that was it, she must have known a lot, which is how she managed to "cure the disease" so smoothly and took her Xu Musen away.
Yes, childhood friends are like leveling up in a ga through fighting monsters, but if An Nuannuan had those mories all along.
It's like she was using a cheat code. How could she win against that?
In other words, her loss wasn't all that unjust.
If there really was a previous life, then An Nuannuan's ti focusing on Xu Musen may not have been much less than hers.
Perhaps, in so way, An Nuannuan could also be considered one of Xu Musen's childhood friends.
