I met you.
Before he could finish speaking, he forced Xiao Ying to stop thinking and let her rest.
Xiao Ying thought about visiting Cheng Ya tomorrow and decided to rest.
The next day, she woke up early and went to Cheng Ya’s hospital.
She entered the ward and saw Mother Cheng and Wen Jing there.
She could neither advance nor retreat.
Cheng Ya greeted her first.
Mother Cheng snorted to express her displeasure, but she didn’t say anything when she met her daughter’s cold gaze.
Xiao Ying glanced at the gauze on Cheng Ya’s wrist. There were still traces of blood on it.
Cheng Ya said, “I happen to have something to tell you.”
She looked normal, not like someone who had just attempted to commit suicide.
Xiao Ying nodded.
Mother Cheng received her daughter’s gaze and left unwillingly with Wen Jing.
Cheng Ya used her uninjured hand to remove the necklace from her neck and handed it to Xiao Ying. She said, “When I cut my wrist that day, my only regret was that those things were still alive. Xiao Ying, help me find a place to bury them.”
Looking at the necklace in her hand, she had a relieved expression on her face, as if she had been released from a burden. “This is the key. Those things are on the second floor of that teahouse. If you go, Uncle Wang will bring you upstairs.”
Xiao Ying did not dare to accept it. “Sister, why did you attempt suicide?”
Cheng Yang smiled slightly. Unlike her usual charming smile, it was peaceful.
She said, “What reason do I have to live?”
Xiao Ying said, “For your family and for yourself.”
Cheng Ya said calmly, “Don’t worry. I won’t kill myself again. Take this. You’re the only one who can touch those things.”
Xiao Ying was puzzled. “Why?”
Cheng Ya looked at her as if looking at someone else through her. Her gaze was fleeting as she said, “I met someone back then too. Unfortunately, he was not as determined as you.”
Xiao Ying seemed to understand something.
Cheng Ya handed the necklace to her again.
Xiao Ying was afraid that her wound would be affected from stretching her hand, so she quickly took it.
Cheng Ya seemed to have released something heavy from her heart. She smiled and relaxed.
Xiao Ying said, “I don’t know what you experienced before, but we should all live for ourselves. We shouldn’t be swayed by others.”
Cheng Ya snorted with laughter and said, “You’re young, but you talk like you’re ancient.”
Xiao Ying was speechless. She did not understand why the person who had just seemed like they were parting forever was smiling so happily.
Cheng Ya said, “Cheng Yang has spoken to me and I’ve figured it out. Don’t worry, I won’t seek death again.”
Seeing that she didn’t appear to be lying, Xiao Ying was relieved.
Looking at the necklace in her hand, she hesitated. “Then what about this?”
Cheng Ya said, “Keep it. Go there when you have time. Find a place to bury those things.”
Xiao Ying agreed in a daze and accompanied her for a while before leaving the hospital.
Xiao Ying, who was intending on visiting the teahouse tomorrow, had her plans interrupted.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences’ research on X-ray spots had advanced.
Previously, Xiao Ying had achieved quite a bit in the field of X-ray spots. This time, the Chinese Academy of Sciences had discovered an even greater value.
This time, they were prepared to dig deeper into the other usages of the X-ray spots.
Xiao Ying could only pack her things and prepare to return.
Cheng Yang hugged her unhappily. Xiao Ying comforted him for a while before getting him to agree.
She watched as he took out the backpack that he had prepared long ago. It was filled with what he felt Xiao Ying needed. Of course, what it mainly contained were just snacks.
Seeing this, Xiao Ying felt like she had been tricked.
Cheng Yang helped her pack without a change in expression.
The next day, he personally drove her to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
When she got out of the car, Cheng Yang stopped her again.
Xiao Ying understood and quickly planted a kiss on his face before pulling away.
