Became the Terminally Ill Supporting Male Lead's Rabbit Spirit Chapter 108

Su Ci and Lu Zhe found themselves in a narrow alley, where the uneven pavent and tangled wires hanging low created an oppressive atmosphere.

"It should be here," Su Ci glanced at the door number.

"Mhm," Lu Zhe agreed.

He took Su Ci's hand, positioning her behind him, and stepped forward to ring the doorbell.

"No one's answering?" After a while, the door remained closed.

Su Ci stepped forward and pressed the doorbell several tis, finally hearing movent from inside.

A man in his forties opened the door, "Who are you looking for?"

Su Ci recalled the userna from the private ssage she had received and said, "Uncle, we're looking for Xiao Jie. We're her friends, is she ho?"

The man looked at the two visitors, their elegant attire and striking appearances marking them as anything but ordinary. He was puzzled as to how his daughter could know such people.

He opened the door wider, "Xiao Jie is in her room. What do you want with her?"

"We had a plan to go to the library together," Su Ci said with a sweet smile, her lie seamless, as if she were truly visiting a close friend.

The middle-aged man let them in, "She's in her room, you can go in and find her."

The house was small and dimly lit, making the living room feel even darker.

The man shuffled to the faded wooden door, knocking loudly, "You two classmates are here to see you, co out and greet them."

After a long pause, there was no response from inside.

He knocked even harder, "You brat, did you hear ?"

Su Ci and Lu Zhe stood quietly by.

"Get out here! You made plans with your friends and didn't even bother to check the ti. They're here, and you're still lazing around?" His loud voice was painful to the ears.

Still, there was no response. Su Ci thought of Xiao Jie's ssage and gently tugged at Lu Zhe's hand, giving him a aningful look.

Lu Zhe stepped forward, stopping the man from knocking again.

"Uncle, Xiao Jie hasn't responded for so long. What if she's fallen or sothing happened? Let's break the door down," Su Ci suggested to the man. Before he could react, Lu Zhe kicked the door open.

Their coordination was swift, leaving the middle-aged man no ti to stop them.

The door flew open.

The man saw his daughter sitting on the floor, holding a knife, her wrist already cut and bleeding. It was clear she had started but was startled by her father's sudden knocking and hadn't had a chance to continue.

The man imdiately rushed forward, grabbing the knife from his daughter's hand and throwing it aside, "Are you crazy?"

"You stupid girl, what are you doing? Did you read yourself stupid? Trying to kill yourself?" His face showed both worry and anger, his words harsh despite his concern.

Su Ci entered the room, noting that Wu Xiaojie's wound wasn't deep, just a superficial cut. Seeing her life bar at six yellow segnts, Su Ci breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, let's take Xiao Jie to the hospital to bandage her wound," Su Ci interrupted his tirade. "Our car is outside; we can take her there."

The man looked at his daughter, who was silently crying, her head bowed. He reached out to pull her up, "Co on, let's go to the hospital."

Wu Xiaojie finally looked up, her tears blurring her vision. To her astonishnt, the unfamiliar voice belonged to Su Ci!

"You... you..." Wu Xiaojie whispered in surprise, "It's Su Ci."

"Yes, it's ," Su Ci said gently. "Your wound needs to be disinfected and bandaged at the hospital. I'll accompany you."

Wu Xiaojie felt like she was dreaming.

Su Ci pulled out a tissue and knelt in front of Wu Xiaojie, gently wiping the blood from her wound. "I saw your private ssage. You wanted to see , didn't you?"

Wu Xiaojie was in a daze, her idol right in front of her, her mind unable to process the reality.

"Let's take you to the hospital first," Su Ci helped her up.

Wu Xiaojie, her eyes brimming with tears, looked at the seemingly unreal Su Ci and obediently stood up, cooperating without a word.

Wu's Father couldn't believe his usually quiet and introverted daughter would do sothing so foolish in her room. If it weren't for these two friends coming to visit her, she might have...

The thought made him shudder, his hands and feet going numb, cold sweat breaking out. Despite his frequent scoldings, she was still his daughter, his flesh and blood. How could he not care?

Seeing his daughter and her friends heading out, Wu's Father noticed the knife he had thrown aside. He quickly picked it up, wrapped it in a piece of clothing, and hid it in the cabinet above the TV.

After hiding the knife, he hurried after them.

Su Ci and Lu Zhe's car was parked outside the alley. The sleek, black vehicle stood out starkly against the surrounding environnt.

Wu Xiaojie and Wu's Father, who had caught up, looked at the car, even without much knowledge of cars, they could tell it was expensive.

Both of them felt awkward and unsure of what to do.

"Maybe I should take Xiao Jie to the hospital by taxi. We don't want to trouble you," Wu's Father said, feeling uncomfortable.

"It's no trouble. Get in," Su Ci opened the door for Wu Xiaojie.

Lu Zhe took the wheel.

The car was quiet, with Su Ci and Wu Xiaojie in the backseat, and Wu's Father in the front passenger seat.

Wu Xiaojie still hadn't co to her senses. She couldn't help but steal glances at Su Ci, unable to believe that Su Ci had appeared and saved her.

Su Ci noticed Wu Xiaojie's gaze and turned to smile at her. "Is there sothing you want to say to ?"

Wu Xiaojie quickly lowered her head, feeling ashad. Her disheveled appearance must have disappointed her idol.

She nervously clenched her hands on her knees, remaining silent.

In the front, Wu's Father spoke, his voice as loud as ever, "You better explain why you did sothing so stupid! Did we not feed you enough? Or not clothe you well? We worked hard to send you to school, and this is how you repay us?"

Wu Xiaojie's head drooped even lower, almost touching her knees.

"Uncle, no one wants to die unless they're pushed to the brink. And no one chooses this thod to escape unless they're desperate," Su Ci said, looking at Wu Xiaojie. "If you have any difficulties, you can tell ."

Wu Xiaojie kept her head down, her hair covering her face.

Wu's Father, anxious, turned back to look at his daughter, his mouth opening and closing, but he didn't continue his questioning.

Su Ci spoke softly, "In your private ssage, you praised for being confident and brave, for handling attacks well. You said you wanted to be like . But if you don't even have the courage to speak up, how can you beco ?"

Su Ci lowered the partition between the seats. "Now it's just you and . You can talk to alone."

Wu Xiaojie looked up.

Su Ci in front of her was even more beautiful than in her photos, her voice soothing, her presence almost too perfect to be real.

From a young age, Wu Xiaojie had been ordinary in every way—her appearance, her skin tone, her weight.

At ho, she took care of cooking, cleaning, and laundry, but her parents often criticized her clumsiness.

She was average in school, introverted, and had no close friends. She was barely noticed in her class.

It wasn't until high school, after a gym class where she had sweated a lot, that so girls started rumors about her having body odor.

Gradually, everyone began to avoid her, looking at her with disdain. Her seat was often targeted with chewed gum or glue.

Sotis, when she went to the bathroom, soone would tamper with her water bottle.

A few girls even liked to corner her after evening classes, verbally abusing her, pulling her hair, and filming the abuse.

Yesterday, those girls dragged her into the girls' bathroom, stripped her, and forced her to kneel while filming.

She felt she couldn't endure it any longer, so she decided to send a farewell ssage to Su Ci today. She hadn't expected Su Ci to see it or reply.

Su Ci was her idol, beautiful, from a good family, and confident. When attacked, she fought back decisively, and those who bullied her paid the price.

Su Ci was the person Wu Xiaojie dread of becoming.

But she was too tired, and she admitted her own weakness. She couldn't bear these nightmares of bullying. In this life, she wanted to be free, and she hoped that in the next life, she would have the chance to beco soone like Su Ci.

After hearing Wu Xiaojie's words, Su Ci remained silent.

After a while, she asked, "Do your parents know?"

Wu Xiaojie shook her head, "Those girls co from wealthy families. One of them is even the niece of the school principal." Her family didn't have money; her parents were just casual laborers. Even if they went to the school, the leaders would just try to smooth things over.

Su Ci understood.

"Suicide is the dumbest way to deal with this. You should tell your parents. If your parents can't solve it, you can file a complaint with the education bureau or expose it to the dia. No matter what thod you use, you shouldn't choose this dumbest way."

Su Ci told her, "You think you're free, but have you thought about it? The people who bullied you are still living well, and even more, they won't feel they did anything wrong. They'll just think you're stupid."

Wu Xiaojie started crying softly.

Su Ci placed her hand on Wu Xiaojie's hand, holding it tightly. "Since I'm your idol, it's my duty to protect my fans."

Through her tears, Wu Xiaojie stared at Su Ci in disbelief.

At the hospital, the doctor examined the wound on Wu Xiaojie's wrist. After giving so instructions on what to watch out for, the doctor also gently encouraged her.

After all, such wounds were clearly self-inflicted.

Those going through a tough ti need to be treated with kindness.

When Wu's Father heard the doctor say that his daughter's hand was fine, his tense expression finally relaxed, but his face was still stern. His words carried anger, "See if you dare do sothing like this again. What were you thinking?"

Wu Xiaojie kept her head down and didn't respond.

Su Ci disagreed and spoke up, "Uncle, Xiao Jie encountered difficulties and suffered a lot. She couldn't bear it and couldn't bring herself to talk to her elders. She was forced to the edge and had no other choice. When you get ho, you should have a good talk with her."

Wu's Father was stunned.

He looked at his daughter, who was quietly keeping her head down. His heart ached with worry and a mix of bla. "This child usually cos ho from school and hides in her room, hardly speaking. She sees like I'm a tiger, wanting to stay as far away as possible. I'm your father. If you have any difficulties, can't you talk to ?"

Wu Xiaojie looked up, her eyes red. She looked at her father, who had worried eyes and graying temples, and whispered, "Dad..."

After sending Wu Xiaojie and her father ho, it was already dark outside.

Wu's Mother ca ho and found out that her daughter had almost died today. She was so scared that she hugged Wu Xiaojie and cried right away.

Su Ci had originally planned to leave without disturbing their family's private conversation, but Wu's Father and Mother insisted on inviting her to stay for dinner.

Looking at Wu Xiaojie's eager gaze, Su Ci agreed.

"Miss Su, Mr. Lu, our family eats simple and light als. Please don't laugh at us." Wu's Father had initially thought that these two young people were his daughter's classmates, but later, after hearing from his daughter, he learned that Su Ci had received a private ssage from his daughter and tracked down their address to save her.

Wu's Father was very grateful to these two young people and didn't know how to repay them.

Moreover, from his daughter's words, he understood that these two young people had extraordinary backgrounds, which explained why they could drive such an expensive car.

The house was small, without a dedicated dining room. They had set up a square table in the living room. However, Su Ci didn't feel uncomfortable. "You're too polite. The food is great."

Su Ci sat next to Lu Zhe, with Wu Xiaojie on her other side.

Wu Xiaojie had injured her left hand, but the wound wasn't deep, and she no longer felt pain.

The fluorescent light in the house was old, making the room a bit dim, but it didn't stop her from stealing glances at Su Ci. Wu Xiaojie still felt like she was dreaming, and she even saw Su Ci's boyfriend, the young master Lu.

They looked so perfect together, even more beautiful than in photos.

To think that she could sit at the sa table and eat with them—this was sothing she had never dared to dream of.

Wu Xiaojie took a bite of rice, her chest filled with excitent. At this mont, she was glad she had been saved; she hadn't died.

After dinner, Su Ci took out her phone and exchanged contact information with Wu Xiaojie. "Go back to school tomorrow and attend your classes. If you encounter any problems, rember to contact . I'll help you deal with them."

Wu Xiaojie couldn't believe it when she saw Su Ci's profile in her friend list. She had added Su Ci as a friend?

Wu Xiaojie felt dizzy with excitent.

"Got it?" Su Ci reached out and tapped Wu Xiaojie's nose with her finger.

Wu Xiaojie's face instantly turned red. If her skin hadn't been darker, it would have been completely flushed.

She quickly nodded, "I understand."

Ah, her idol was not only beautiful and gentle but also kind. She would be a fan of Su Ci forever!

Su Ci and Lu Zhe were about to leave. The Wu family saw them off to the door.

Wu Xiaojie kept waving at Su Ci, "Please be careful on the road."

Back in the car, Su Ci sat quietly in the passenger seat.

"What's wrong?" Lu Zhe leaned over to fasten the seatbelt for the girl.

Su Ci reached out and hugged Lu Zhe, resting her head on his shoulder. "For the first ti, I realize that I can influence others and beco a source of motivation for them."

Lu Zhe chuckled softly and hugged her back. "You're not just a source of motivation for others; you're also mine."

Without her, he might have been waiting sowhere, waiting for his illness to flare up and slowly die.

Hearing this, Su Ci, who had just been feeling sentintal, suddenly felt proud. She smiled, her eyes curving, "I'm not just your motivation; I'm your ultimate cutie."

Lu Zhe's dark eyes filled with laughter. "Mm."

The alley had no streetlights, and everything was pitch black.

Su Ci tugged at Lu Zhe's clothes, naturally asking for a kiss: "Kiss ."

After stopping Wu Xiaojie from attempting suicide, she had gained another gold.

Lu Zhe's cold fingertips lifted the girl's chin, and he kissed her. In the dim light, it was incredibly tender.
