Chapter 823: Can’t Live Anymore

Translator: Vesper

“Yao’er...” Mu Xue frowned. She felt incredibly uncomfortable seeing Ning Meng Yao treating her like this.

“I know you’re probably thinking that I’m unreasonable, but my husband saved yours. I can accept that they decided to hide it from me, but why do you have to lie to me? Are you afraid that I’ll eat you?” Ning Meng Yao looked at Mu Xue and said, her voice trembling slightly.

She really did not understand why Mu Xue agreed to hide the truth from her. Was it because her husband was fine, so she had to hide from her?

They said it was for her sake, they said they did not want her to worry, but all of this was just their wishful thinking.

Did they know how frightened she was when she saw Qiao Tian Chang?

In the days when she took care of Qiao Tian Chang, she did not even dare to close her eyes, for fear that Qiao Tian Chang’s faint breath would disappear once she opened them again.

Who could understand the fear and worry she felt those days?

“Please don’t be like this, Yao’er.”

“Don’t be like this? Then what do you want me to do? I had to use my own hand to check his breathing every few hours to see if he was still alive. Do you know how it felt having to live through those days? Do you know? If you guys have told me earlier, I would have taken Grandpa Hei and Qing Shuang over sooner, then he would not be injured so badly to that point.” Her heart was filled with hatred towards them when Old Hei told her that things would not have been that serious if they had found out earlier.

Mu Xue stared blankly at Ning Meng Yao. She only knew what Ning Meng Yao did in those days. She did not know she was so terrified.

“You love Xiao Qi Tian, but I love Qiao Tian Chang even more. I can’t live without him.” Ning Meng Yao looked up and suppressed the pain she felt, she forced back the tears that were about to roll from her eyes.

“Yao’er...”

“Ha, you want me to forgive you? I have never blamed you, so what’s there to forgive? I just hated it, I hate that I didn’t notice something was wrong earlier, why would I believe him when he said he was alright.” Ning Meng Yao murmured in a low voice.

Mu Xue might feel better if Ning Meng Yao shouted or scolded her, but hearing her complaining made her feel even worse for her actions.

“You guys only know how many ribs he had broken and veins he had ruptured, but did you know the real injury is in his head? Grandpa Hei secretly told me that he might not wake up. Can you imagine how I felt that time when he told me that?” Ning Meng Yao looked at Mu Xue with sad and self-blaming eyes, she laughed sarcastically and wiped away her tears.

Qiao Tian Chang stood not far away and stared blankly at Ning Meng Yao, so there were so many things he did not know about.

Qiao Tian Chang left Yu Feng and the rest and walked to Ning Meng Yao’s side, he hugged her into his arms: “Yao Yao, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.”

“Qiao Tian Chang, you stupid idiot.” All of Ning Meng Yao’s fear that she had suppressed in her heart broke out at this moment, especially when she heard Qiao Tian Chang’s apologetic voice.

Yu Feng and the rest also walked over to them, Mu Chen looked at Mu Xue who was at a loss, and he shook his head helplessly.

If he thought that they could return to how things were in the past, now it seemed that it was impossible, they might still talk, but they could never return to how things were last time.

“Brother... I... I don’t know, I really don’t know.” Mu Xue looked at Ning Meng Yao’s hysterical appearance and shook her head non-stop.

She had known Ning Meng Yao for so many years but she had never seen her like this before.

“That’s not important anymore, maybe for Little Yao’er, looking at you reminds her of those fearful dark days.” Yu Feng looked at Mu Xue deeply and murmured softly.

Not only Mu Xue, but also Yu Feng and his wife who were the first to know Ning Meng Yao, had never seen her like this before too.

Ning Meng Yao had over-reacted so Qiao Tian Chang could only tap on her sleeping acupoint to give her a good rest.

“I’ll bring her to her bed.” Qiao Tian Chang said hoarsely.

He could feel Ning Meng Yao’s pain and fear. The only thing he did not know now was how to get rid of her fear.
