Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1569: Chapter 1549: Numb Lower Body

Upon hearing the cold laugh, Luo Shufan instantly became vigilant, his eyes extremely bright, and he saw Mo standing at the doorway, which gave him quite a shock.

”Don’t worry, I won’t call the doctor for you.” Mo sneered as he walked into the hospital room, closing the door as he went. He glanced at Luo Shufan’s arm, which was bleeding and had stained a large part of the bed sheet red, smiled noncommittally, and didn’t say much more.

But Luo Shufan was extremely cautious; now, he was timid and cowardly.

Otherwise, why would he choose to commit suicide?

Choosing death is easy, but choosing to live is hard.

”Even if I don’t tell, Luo Qianqian knows what you’re doing now.” Mo looked calmly at Luo Shufan, saw the astonishment on his face, and sneered contemptuously: ”Hmph, you don’t believe it? From the moment that knife cut your wrist, Luo Qianqian knew. The reason she hasn’t shown up is simply because she respects you, and it’s her way of giving up on herself.”

”What do you mean?” Luo Shufan immediately frowned. He didn’t care what would happen to himself, but why would Luo Qianqian know and still give up on herself? Shouldn’t she give up on him?

”How do you think you survived?” Mo looked at Luo Shufan calmly: ”Do you think someone can survive a total disaster by ’miracle’? All so-called miracles are just illusions before people tell you the truth.”

Luo Shufan said nothing, but there was a look of contemplation in his eyes.

”Well, at least if you die, someone will accompany you. Unfortunately for your father, losing both children at the same time.” Mo looked at Luo Shufan mockingly and laughed: ”Isn’t this what you call filial piety? After all, with you gone, all the pressure won’t fall on one person in the future.”

”Oh right, I wonder if she’s calmly waiting for death now?”

Listening to Mo’s strange words one after another, Luo Shufan only felt a little dizzy: ”What do you mean? Explain clearly!”

”What do I mean? It means your life now is given by your sister. If you die, she can’t live either; if you hurt, she hurts too. Everything you endure, she endures too, only passively.” Mo looked at Luo Shufan with indifference: ”I just didn’t expect that because she saved you, she would end up dying. If I had known, it would have been better not to save you!”

”Why! Why does she have to die!” Luo Shufan was incredulous.

Why can his sister feel his pain yet still greet him with a smile? Why, when he almost couldn’t bear it and yelled at her because of his bad temper, did she still smile and peel fruit for him?

Why, if he dies, does she have to die too?!

He didn’t want that; that’s his sister, he couldn’t let that happen! He wouldn’t permit it!

Although he didn’t know why, he clearly remembered that death had once been very close to him. He almost felt himself leaving, yet he was saved.

”Because you’re her brother, her only real brother.” Mo finished speaking, turned around, and left without any hesitation.

Luo Shufan sat in a daze for a long time before pressing the emergency call button at his side.

He was a useless person, not worth lamenting over, but his sister, his sister couldn’t die, she couldn’t.

Luckily, the blood loss wasn’t severe, and after a few stitches, they moved him to another ward.

And the next day, Luo Qianqian didn’t show up.

Yan, over there, also received Mo’s message and sighed repeatedly. He went to see Luo Qianqian but saw her lying in the yard, holding Xiao Tian and staring blankly at the sky.

”Are you alright?” Yan looked at Luo Qianqian’s expression helplessly but lay down beside her, looking at the sky: ”He’s fine now.”

”Really?” Luo Qianqian’s voice was without any ripple: ”Mo didn’t come back, he must have stopped it.”

Yan was at a loss for words, but he couldn’t refute, because that was indeed the case.

”I’ll send everyone back, and then we’ll go back for the competition. We’re not needed here anymore.” After saying that, he stood up and calmly patted Xiao Tian: ”I’ll take you to accompany your master. It’s pretty dangerous following me.”

With that, he left the yard to find Luo Xinyue and Elvis, not forgetting to send his uncle and aunt back to take care of Luo Yanhai.

When she left with Mo, not even looking at Luo Shufan, Luo Xinyue, who was holding Xiao Tian’s leash, finally sensed that something was wrong. But by then it was too late; Luo Qianqian had already gone back.

”What’s wrong with Old Third?” Luo Xisi immediately asked with concern as she saw Luo Xinyue’s frown.

Both children having accidents would naturally worry the father, but if something happened to him too, it would be even more chaotic.

”I guess... you’ve been left behind, and can’t go back for now.” Luo Xinyue looked at the space ring in her hand, suddenly feeling she found the truth. No wonder Luo Qianqian packed so many things in it for him...

”They must’ve returned for the competition, right? It takes time to travel back and forth.” Luo Xisi shrugged indifferently.

It wasn’t until they heard about Luo Shufan’s suicide attempt last night that everyone was shocked and understood why Luo Qianqian brought Mo and left without even looking at Luo Shufan.

Luo Xinyue remained silent; yesterday, Yan had told him a little bit about the situation, and although he didn’t know the specific details, the implication was very clear... If Luo Shufan died, Luo Qianqian would also die; if Luo Qianqian died, Luo Shufan would also die. This was the only way to save the practically incurable Luo Shufan. Now, whatever injury Luo Qianqian endures, Luo Shufan will know, and whatever injury Luo Shufan has, Luo Qianqian will also feel.

Luo Qianqian knew that saving Luo Shufan might cost her life, yet she resolutely saved him because he was her only real brother.

Thinking this, his expression turned dark.

Hearing someone open the door, Luo Shufan quickly looked over, but did not see that figure, and frowned slightly.

”Where’s Qianqian?” Luo Shufan looked at the few people entering the room and closing the door, saw no one outside, none of that cheerful girl who always brought him food with a smile.

”She went to compete.” Luo Xinyue’s expression was a bit cold: ”When she dropped us off, her face looked awful.”

Luo Shufan’s face immediately filled with remorse, but he still snorted and turned his head: ”Anyway, she’s grown up. With or without me, her brother, it’s all the same. Without me dragging her down, she can do even better.”

Luo Xinyue listened on the side and was so angry that he laughed: ”Fine, then be a burden, Big Brother, let’s go home and rest. I’ll take you and my sister-in-law home to recuperate.” With that, he opened the door and pulled Luo Xisi away without a second thought.

Luo Shufan was dumbfounded watching them leave, incredulous.

Why was Dad so angry?

A wet sensation on his hand made him turn his head, and he saw Xiao Tian still in the hospital room, suddenly stunned.

Xiao Tian tremblingly shed his fur in the room, placing the paper strip fallen from the Collar into Luo Shufan’s hand, and then obediently lay on the ground, neither making noise nor acting up, being well-behaved.
