Grace: "——"
Her entire face lost its composure, and she stared, stunned and bewildered, at the man who considered himself charming.
His face?
Qin Zazha, where was your face?
What kind of mindset led you to make this request?
You're in your thirties, can you not have some dignity? Can you not have some self-awareness?
Truly—
Grace glared at the man, who looked delighted, and turned to leave.
She couldn't even be bothered to scold him, decisively choosing to ignore him.
Unable to find a way to deal with Qin Yunxi, she could only treat him as air.
The Buddha said: "Lay down the butcher's knife, and become a Buddha instantly."
Whether she could become a Buddha or not, Grace didn't know, but she was clear that by ignoring Qin Yunxi, by turning a blind eye to his shameless persistence, she could live a few years longer.
For the sake of a long life!
Endure!
Besides, Xin Jie said she would contact her, so why should she rush this moment?
—
Du Ruoxin rushed into the hospital, heading straight for the operating room.
"Cristino!"
"Stop!"
"You are not allowed to have surgery!"
"Cristino!"
Du Ruoxin shouted as she ran, her frightened and panicked voice echoing through the operating room.
"Bang—"
She hurriedly pushed open the operating room door.
"Beep, beep, beep—"
The piercing sound of equipment from the operating room, like a death knell, reverberated through Du Ruoxin's entire brain.
【Big Brother—】
When she saw Cristino lying on the operating table, with several doctors surrounding him.
Du Ruoxin's mind exploded with a "buzz."
No!
"You are not allowed to have surgery!"
"Stop!"
She roared, like a madwoman, and pushed past the doctors and nurses.
Standing in front of Cristino.
"Brother…"
How could you be so foolish?
How could you gamble with your own life?
Brother—
Seeing Cristino lying quietly on the operating table, Du Ruoxin held his hand, unable to control her tears.
Two streams of tears slid down like clear springs.
Blurring her vision.
"I don't want you to have a blood transfusion…"
"I don't want you to pay with your life…"
"I…"
"Sob—"
Du Ruoxin cried harder and harder, her sorrow deepening.
The anesthesiologist, holding a syringe, looked bewildered at the sudden turn of events, "Um, Mr. Rothschild, should I continue?"
Cough, cough, cough, cough!
He was just about to administer the anesthetic when Du Ruoxin burst in.
Hearing the question, Cristino opened his eyes.
One hand clasped Du Ruoxin's hand, and the other wiped the tears from her eyes. He said, "Don't cry, I can't bear to see you shed tears."
Du Ruoxin threw herself into his arms, holding him tightly, afraid that if she let go, he would do something foolish again.
"No surgery!"
"Cristino, if you dare to have a blood transfusion, I will never speak to you again!"
"Never speak to you again!"
She would keep her word!
The woman's uncontrollable fear and trembling were precisely transmitted to the man's heart.
Cristino held her tightly in return.
His hands, like screws, tightened and tightened.
He wished he could hold her like this forever, never letting go for all eternity.
"Xin'er…"
He murmured softly.
Unable to extricate himself from this tenderness, from this possession.
But—
There was only one step left.
Then he could have her forever.
Cristino dared not indulge himself. He pushed her away, trying to maintain a semblance of calm, "You're here?"
"Perfect timing, will you accompany me for surgery?"
"With you here, I'll wake up quickly."
"I've consulted, the success rate of blood transfusion surgery is very high, I'm just going to sleep for a while…"
Du Ruoxin's scalp tingled upon hearing him say this, and she interrupted him with a scream, "No! I forbid you to have surgery! Do you hear me!"
She had risked her life to come here precisely to stop him from doing something foolish.
No!
Anyone who dared to operate on him today, she would turn this place upside down!
"But…" Cristino frowned and waved his hand.
The doctors, nurses, and anesthesiologist in the operating room all immediately disappeared.
Only when the door closed did Cristino put his arm around the woman's waist, his face pale, and say, "Without the blood transfusion, you won't marry me."
"Xin'er, from the moment you stepped into my house, I decided that in this life, I will marry no one but you."
