Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities - Chapter 634

Chapter 634: Should She Say It?

“I’m begging you…” Gao Yi’s snot and tears dropped together; he was in a mess. He was broken.

Xia Ruoxin held his hand tightly.

“Gao Yi, you must resist… you must…”

“Don’t touch me!” Gao Yi’s voice was filled with immense hatred. “Xia Ruoxin, you dirty woman. You’re just a prostitute; how dare you touch me? What right do you have? Get out. Get out!”

The man’s voice was filled with anger and hatred, and he spouted out nonsense that he himself did not even know.

Xia Ruoxin felt a pang in her heart and an indescribable discomfort.

She let go of his hand. She knew he did not mean it—she knew it was unintentional, but she was still hurt. The wounds that had already been covered up years back was peeled right open in an instant to reveal her flesh. With her discomfort and her past, it was as if someone had ripped her clothes out; and she was standing there naked, getting mocked and ridiculed by other people.

His face contorted in a painful manner, and his body kept struggling. If it was not for the rope holding him down, he might have ended his life. From within the house, there was a man’s holler and scolding. Perhaps he himself did not even know what he was saying. In the end, his words were all muddled up. Who he scolded, what he scolded—no one could tell anymore.

There was sweat all over his forehead and face. The sweat kept coming and dripping.

Xia Ruoxin brought a towel over and wanted to help him wipe, but the man suddenly opened his eyes wide and bit her arm with his mouth.

Xia Ruoxin held back the pain as tears flowed from the corner of her eyes, but she still used her other hand to wipe off his sweat bit by bit. Bite, just bite, as long as you feel better…

The man’s body cramped up again, and after a few convulsions, he passed out.

“Hiss…” Xia Ruoxin slowly lifted her hand, and on her arm, there were blurred markings of her flesh and blood.

The Gao Yi now had blood all over his mouth, and his face was pale; his brows were knitted together tightly. Even if he had passed out, one could still feel that he was in great pain.

The rope could not be taken off; no one would dare to.

Xia Ruoxin cleaned her wound in a basic manner. That bite from Gao Yi was extremely serious. If he had not passed out, perhaps that piece of flesh of hers would be chewed off raw.

Not only Gao Yi had a whole body of cold sweat, but so was hers.

She was actually very tired and in pain, but she knew that she had to accompany Gao Yi and finish fighting this battle. She must win this battle.

Finally, she slept.

Wei Lan carefully undid her son’s clothes and helped him wear new ones. Just that, when she saw her muscular son become the bag of skeleton he was today, it was as if her heart was ripped apart.

In between, Bai Zhenfeng had come several times. Perhaps he wanted Wei Lan to change her mind. When someone was always by one’s side, perhaps one would feel that that person could not leave. Until very much later, one would realize that it was not that that person could not leave, but that one could not leave them.

Bai Zhenfeng was just that. His wife had left him, and his daughter was admitted into a mental hospital, with no one knowing when she would come out. Even if she was discharged, she might be sent to jail instead. Now, he was all alone. He had no one to serve him water. When he was hungry, no one cared about him. When he was sick, it was worse. At this moment, he finally realized how much Wei Lan’s existence meant for him.

She was air. She was water.

In one’s life, how could he leave his air and water?

So he came. As long as she gave him another chance, he would cherish it and treat her well. However, it was too late, really too late. Wei Lan’s heart was already dead.

Now that Gao Yi was in his half-alive state—every time his drug addiction kicked it, he was better off dead. Every time, he yelled at his mother to get lost; every time, he cried to his mother.

“Mom, please, just let me die…”

Her heart was ripped apart into pieces. How could she forgive him? How could she?

The one who caused all of this mess was Bai Zhenfeng. Bai Zhenfeng.

Wei Lan had already lost all hope in Bai Zhenfeng. All she wanted now was for her son to get rid of his addiction, and she finally realized that even without Bai Zhenfeng, her life was freer and happier.

Actually, when one let go of others, that person was letting themselves go as well.

Now, she had indeed relieved herself.

…

Gao Yi’s drug addiction was much worse than normal people’s. Perhaps it was because Bai Luoyin had concocted the drug mixture herself. Even for Gao Yi with his strong willpower, he would also be pushed to the point of insanity. In the beginning—one day, he would lose his mind twice; afterward, it became one day four or five times. There was no discipline or schedule whatsoever.

He would smile at them and talk to them, but when his addiction kicked in, it was like he became someone else. He would scold his beloved mother—scold Xia Ruoxin, and the words he used was something he would have never said in the past. Moreover, when he woke up, he would forget what he had done and what he had said.

If Bai Luoyin really succeeded, then Gao Yi would truly become a puppet with no soul. His whole life, he would live like the walking dead until the end of his life.

The next few days, not only did Gao Yi become thinner; but so did Wei Lan and Xia Ruoxin.

Finally, when Gao Yi slept, and it was only at night, that he could have a good night’s sleep. In the day, he did not even want to shut his eyes.

Lately, Xia Ruoxin did not even have time to submit her work. She opened her computer as she needed to talk to the person on the other side.

Just nice, ‘A Sunny Day will Come’ was online.

At this moment, she looked at her watch; it was going to be past midnight soon.

Summer’s Not Over, “Are you still there?”

A Sunny Day will Come, “Yes. I am.”

Summer’s Not Over, “Sorry, I was busy recently so those drawings I need some time before I can submit them.”

A Sunny Day will Come, “It’s fine, it’s not busy on that side anyway. You can owe it first.”

Soon, there was a chunk of words from that side.

A Sunny Day will Come, “If it’s possible, could you tell me what’s wrong?”

Xia Ruoxin patted her arm lightly. Now, her entire arm was swollen; but she did not dare tell Gao Yi that he bit it. She also dared not leave Gao Yi for too long as she was afraid he would act up again. She could not even leave in the middle of the night.

She should say it or not? She herself did not know if she should.
