Chapter 2316: Chapter 2331: When You Truly Love, You Become the Same (Part 1)
Bai Jingqing’s fingers trembled as he opened the test results on the table, as if the piece of paper he held at that moment was unbearably heavy.
He slowly pulled out the paper inside, inch by inch, his dry mouth tense, and with a determined gulp, he quickly yanked out the lab report.
However, upon seeing the words on it, he only felt a sudden darkness before his eyes.
He fell into the chair, fingers gripping hard, the lab report crumpling under his grasp, shaking like a leaf in the wind.
The test results were malignant, meaning his elder brother had stomach cancer, and it was already nearing the late stages.
Bai Jingqing suddenly hated himself, why knowing that his brother had stomach issues, he didn’t insist on regular check-ups.
Lately, his brother repeatedly vomited blood, he thought it was the blow from the affair with Qingxin, but now it seemed, that was a sign of the disease in his stomach.
...
Beiming Han stood by the window, gazing out at everything outside. When Gu Qingxin came in, seeing him standing by the window, his desolate silhouette stirred a pang of sorrow in her, she hurriedly walked over.
Her hands wrapped around his waist, then clasped together at the front. Beiming Han frowned, "Doesn’t your hand hurt anymore?"
"Just a minor injury." Gu Qingxin moved in front of him and looked at him, even though he tried hard to hide, at this moment, he couldn’t conceal his low spirits.
In recent days, he seemed particularly different.
What was happening to him?
Beiming Han looked at her, and she too gazed into his eyes, "Ah Han, you have worries."
It wasn’t a question, but a confirmation.
"It’s still about Ye Qi. He knows too much about me. It’s a bit troublesome now." Beiming Han found a most believable excuse.
In fact, Beiming Han was quite aware, even if Ye Qi betrayed him once, he had a hunch it wouldn’t happen a second time.
Mentioning this, Gu Qingxin was quite troubled as well, "What should be done then? Do you want to talk to him again?"
"There’s no need. If he intends to betray me again, no amount of talking will help. Hopefully, he retains some bit of conscience." Beiming Han guided her to the sofa to sit down.
"Don’t worry too much, Ye Qi probably won’t repeat such an act." Gu Qingxin leaned into his chest, she really enjoyed listening to his heartbeat now.
"Hmm, I’ll give you a shower." Beiming Han lifted her up and headed towards the bathroom.
After Gu Qingxin fell asleep, Beiming Han got up and left the bedroom, and in the study, he smoked several cigarettes before extinguishing the last one, dialed Bai Jingqing’s number.
"The results should be out by now, right?" Beiming Han asked directly.
...
The night was as serene as a silent sea, but surged like anxiety in an impending storm, a disaster often becomes apparent only when you awaken, and understand what true destruction means...
Like a wounded beast, or like a solitary and pitiful child, seemingly every pore of the body resisting, negating, trembling, contracting...
Yet, he still couldn’t escape fate...
Beiming Han always believed that as long as he and she loved each other, he could continue to be happy forever, regardless if the road ahead was muddy or thorny, but in the end, happiness mercilessly abandoned him!
Perhaps, this was his fate, born under a curse, preventing him from ever truly obtaining... happiness!
