Chapter 1: She is destined to die
Editor: Larbre Studio
“Hmm…” Clutching the bedsheet beneath her, Mo Jun was covered in sweat from pain.
Her pale face, distorted from the effort to endure, became extremely twisted.
Xiaomo, as always, was well-behaved and quiet, only standing to one side, looking at her with worry.
“Mommy, does it hurt a lot? Do you want Xiaomo to blow on it to make it better?”
“No need, I’m fine…” Mo Jun tried to put on a brave face; she didn’t want her son to worry about her too much. Since she had been hospitalized, Xiaomo had stayed by her side without leaving, for the entire year.
He had witnessed her pain every time, and when she was in agony, he would feel miserable too.
Now that she had nothing left, all she wanted was to bring her child a bit more comfort in the last moments of her life.
“Are you really okay?” Xiaomo tilted his head, his pure, large eyes brimming with concern.
“Yes, I’m fine.” Mo Jun managed a faint smile and tried to sit up, just as Nurse Xiaoxue entered the room.
“Mrs. Hao, what are you trying to do? Do you want to drink some water?” Xiaoxue hurried to her side to support her the moment she saw her trying to get up, fearing she might suffer even the slightest bit.
As a nurse, Xiaoxue could be described as exceptionally competent. Over the past year, she had taken care of Mo Jun with meticulous attention, even to a respectful degree.
Of course, it wasn’t because she was kind-hearted, but rather because Hao Yansen paid her well and had instructed everyone to take good care of her.
Under Hao Yansen’s arrangements, Mo Jun indeed received the best treatment and care. However, her body continued to weaken, and she was now on the brink of death, having become a completely useless burden.
A long time ago, she knew she would die; it’s just that before death approached rapidly, she couldn’t feel any sadness or reluctance.
Before she met Hao Yansen, she had no attachment to this world. After meeting him, she thought heaven had finally begun to pity her, to compensate her, to give her the warmth and love she yearned for.
But fate played cruel tricks, and she fell ill quickly, her heart failing day by day; her death was inevitable.
However, even profound feelings couldn’t withstand the torment of illness. Long-term sickness at one’s bedside leaves no filial children, just as naturally, it leaves no devoted lovers.
A man like Hao Yansen was destined to soar high; he wouldn’t stay for a woman stricken with severe illness. Even though they were husband and wife, he wouldn’t stop his pursuits for her.
So his feelings for her gradually faded…
He hadn’t visited for almost half a month now; perhaps he had already forgotten about her. Even more so, he might be eager for her to leave this world sooner, to give him a sense of relief.
When Mo Jun realized that his heart had changed, she wasn’t without sadness, but she had long seen through the selfishness and fickleness of human nature, so she wasn’t too heartbroken.
Instead, her heart became more desolate, no longer holding any nostalgia for this world, and she even looked forward to the arrival of death.
But the heavens wouldn’t take her, forcing her to drag her broken body in a struggle for survival.
But it’s alright; after all, she would die soon, so living a few more days didn’t matter.
Lost in these thoughts, Mo Jun didn’t notice Hao Yansen walking in.
The tall man stepped in, and Xiaoxue noticed him immediately. She didn’t speak up; she just respectfully nodded her head and withdrew from the room at the signal of Hao Yansen’s eyes.
Mo Jun sensed his presence as soon as he approached.
His scent was unique, and with her sensitive nose, she could always smell it from a distance. The moment she picked up the scent, Mo Jun’s eyelashes fluttered, but in the next second, her gaze regained its calmness.
PS: The author has released a new book, an absolute favorite, and invites everyone to add it to their shelves and give it more recommendation tickets for support, muah~
Pay close attention to the first dozen chapters of this book; otherwise, it’s easy to get confused.
Also, many readers have mispronounced the male lead’s surname; it’s Hao, not He.
Remember, it’s Hao, not He~~~~
Jun rhymes with Yun, so Mo Jun is Mo Yun; don’t read it wrong~
