Chapter 2034: You Complete My Life
The words she wanted to say were all swallowed back down, leaving her unable to utter a single word.
Including the time they spent together at the company, it had been nearly three years since they first met.
Through all the ups and downs, the joy and tears, they had experienced so much together.
She admitted to herself that even after what had happened, she couldn’t forget him.
And she wasn’t willing to just hand Lin Yi over to someone else, because Lin Yi was her man.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“Lin Yi, you b*stard!”
Suddenly, Ji Qingyan jumped up from the floor, grabbed a pillow, and started hitting Lin Yi furiously.
Then, like an enraged lioness, she climbed onto him, pounding him repeatedly.
“You jerk, how could you do this to me?! I’m going to beat you to death, and then it’ll all be over!”
With every strike, Ji Qingyan vented the frustration and anger that had been building up inside her.
After about ten minutes, her hair was disheveled, and her clothes were in disarray, making her look like a madwoman.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Weren’t you just so confident? Speak up, give me an explanation!”
“Take it easy, it actually hurts…”
“You’re still playing!”
Ji Qingyan’s anger flared up again. She was hitting him with a pillow. How could it hurt?
“Well, go ahead and vent a little longer. If it helps you feel better, then it’s worth it.”
“You’re a jerk, a scoundrel, an *sshole! At this point, are you still not going to give me an explanation?”
“My explanation is that I will never give up on you,” Lin Yi said firmly.
“You might never marry me, but I’m telling you right now, you’ll never be with anyone else in this lifetime. If you try, I’ll take down anyone who tries to come between us. If you’re not afraid of being a widow, then go ahead and try.”
“What gives you the right to decide my whole life for me? I’ll never marry you, not even if it kills me! I’m going to be with someone else.”
“That’s your choice. Marry whoever you want; it’s my choice to deal with them. We don’t interfere with each other.”
“You scoundrel! I’ll kill you!”
The more Ji Qingyan spoke, the angrier she became. She straddled Lin Yi, venting all her pent-up frustration.
But then, suddenly, Lin Yi reached out and pulled Ji Qingyan into his arms, whispering softly in her ear,
“You can do whatever you want, but remember this: you belong to me in this lifetime. Even if you never forgive me, I can accept that, but I still won’t give up on you.”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t give up; I won’t let you have me!” Ji Qingyan struggled.
“If I can’t have you, then no one else will.”
“Then I, Ji Qingyan, will die old and alone rather than be with you!”
Using all her strength, Ji Qingyan broke free from Lin Yi’s embrace and returned to the floor.
The room fell silent again. Lin Yi didn’t say anything, but he could hear Ji Qingyan’s heavy breathing.
She needed some time to calm down.
But after about half a minute, Ji Qingyan suddenly sat up, her eyes filled with fear.
Lin Yi turned his head, “What’s wrong?”
“Blood…” Ji Qingyan said, her voice trembling. “It’s not supposed to be today…”
Panicked, Ji Qingyan quickly turned on the bedroom light.
She saw that her thighs and nightgown were stained with blood.
She froze for a moment, embarrassed beyond words.
According to her calculations, her period wasn’t supposed to start today. This shouldn’t have happened.
The worst part was that Lin Yi was there to witness it all!
But in the next moment, Ji Qingyan’s face turned pale, as if she had seen something terrifying.
She noticed that Lin Yi’s body was covered in blood, and some had even soaked into the bedsheet.
At this moment, she suddenly realized.
The blood on them did not come from her, but from Lin Yi!
Ji Qingyan was stunned, as if she had turned to stone.
“What… what happened? Why is there so much blood on you?”
Lin Yi took a deep breath, struggling to sit up and leaning against the headboard.
“I got injured earlier. The wound might have reopened.”
With that, Lin Yi unbuttoned his shirt.
Ji Qingyan saw that his abdomen was wrapped in bandages, which were soaked with blood.
When Lin Yi removed the bandages, she saw a scar at least twenty centimeters long.
There were traces of sutures on it, and fresh blood was seeping from it.
“This… did I do this?”
It was only then that Ji Qingyan understood.
It must have happened just now when she was riding on him.
No wonder he said it hurt at that time, it turned out that the wound had split.
“It’s nothing. I’ll just clean it up.”
Lin Yi grabbed some tissue and gently wiped the blood from the wound, preparing to treat it.
“You… wait a minute, I’ll call 120 right now.”
“I’m a doctor. Calling them won’t help.”
Lin Yi kept his head down as he worked on his wound, his expression unchanged.
“I think you have a first-aid kit at home. Could you bring it over?”
“Okay, wait here. I’ll go get it.”
Ji Qingyan rushed out of the room and quickly returned with the kit.
Lin Yi took some iodine and gauze and began disinfecting and dressing the wound.
As she watched Lin Yi silently treat his injury, tears streamed down Ji Qingyan’s face.
She was heartbroken to see him covered in wounds.
She was angry at herself for being useless in this situation.
She felt scared even she looked at him.
“I’m sorry. I’m such a burden. I couldn’t help you at all, and now I’ve caused you so much pain.”
“If you look at it that way, then yes, you haven’t helped me much. But the thing is, you’re of extraordinary significance to me.”
“Extraordinary significance…”
“It’s like how humans can’t live without air, how trees can’t survive without soil, and how I can’t live without you.”
Lin Yi kept his head down, quietly tending to his wound.
“I used to be an extreme person. I wanted a lot of money. I wanted to trample on everyone who looked down on me. I even thought that when I finally met my biological parents, I would curse them out and sever all ties. But when you came into my life, it was like the sun shining in, filling the dark void in my heart, making my life bright and vast.”
Huff…
Lin Yi took a deep breath, revealing the softest emotions in his heart.
“You complete my life. Without you, even if I stood at the top, what would it matter?”
