Chapter 193: I Can’t Sleep Without You
Qin Youxuan suddenly came to her senses and flung herself at him, frantic, unsure where to start.
“Dan Hanjie, you mustn’t scare me… just hold on a little longer, Yao will be here soon…” Qin Youxuan, touching the slick red of his blood, was stricken with panic.
“If you’re afraid, follow the river upstream and leave here first.”
“I won’t go!” Qin Youxuan shook her head firmly, tears clogging her voice.
Her small hands clung tightly to his stiff body. “Dan Hanjie, you must hold on… teach me… teach me how to save you. I’ll obey you this time…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t die.” Dan Hanjie coughed lightly, and then dark blood oozed out from the corner of his mouth.
However, the certainty in his voice was comforting.
“I believe you. You’ve never lied to me, and you won’t this time either!” Qin Youxuan quickly responded. With every ounce of her strength, she moved Dan Hanjie into her arms, holding him tightly.
Her clear, cat-like eyes shimmered in the moonlight, radiating an unyielding tenacity.
“Such a mess.” Dan Hanjie stared at her dirty face, tracing her brow and lips with his long finger.
She thought she was lucky enough to come back from the brink of death, and he still had the nerve to criticize her appearance?
Swallowing her saliva, Qin Youxuan wanted to ask him why he had repeatedly risked his life to save her.
If he had left her alone, those people would have been no match for him…
“I won’t let you die before me.” As if he saw through her doubts, Dan Hanjie pronounced these words slowly and deliberately.
“Without you, I can’t sleep.” Dan Hanjie mumbled something puzzling, then slowly closed his eyes.
Even though he was injured all over and physically exhausted, he remained proud and unyielding.
His commanding presence made Qin Youxuan hesitate to wake him up for an explanation.
What did he mean by without her, he couldn’t sleep?
Did it mean she was important to him?
Damn, what did he mean by that sentence!
“Dan Hanjie, don’t sleep. Talk to me, please… I’m scared being alone…” After a long time, Yao didn’t arrive, and Qin Youxuan felt numb and pained all over.
The gloomy and damp environment was extremely trying on one’s mental strength.
As Dan Hanjie was losing a lot of blood and his body heat rapidly dropping, Qin Youxuan, panicking, could only hold on to him tighter.
Eventually, she passed out on top of him.
Everything turned into a white blur.
The dense whiteness was somehow more unsettling than the darkest black.
Had she reached Heaven?
Where was Dan Hanjie…
“The patient is awake, notify the doctor!”
“Prepare for a consultation, we need to conduct another full-body check-up for the patient…”
Who was talking by her ear? So noisy.
Qin Youxuan lazily opened her eyes, her vision unfocused for a moment.
“Miss Qin, you’re awake!” Yao, standing in front of the bed, saw Qin Youxuan opening her eyes and cried out in surprise.
Qin Youxuan paused, her wits slowly returning.
The memories before she passed out gradually reassembled, recreating a horrifying picture.
“Where’s Dan Hanjie! How is he? Where is he now?” Qin Youxuan quickly sat up from the bed. Ignoring her dizziness and need to catch her breath, she stepped barefoot onto the floor and reached out to grab Yao’s arm.
“Mr. Jie is alright. The bullet has been removed. The poison hasn’t been fully purged, so he hasn’t woken up yet. He’s lying in…” Yao pointed at the bed next to Qin Youxuan, which was separated by a white screen.
