I rushed into the room and hugged Lin Yixin tightly.

She trembled slightly in my arms as tears slid down her cheeks. "Why did you come in, Little Cheat? I… I didn’t want you to see me like this, I…"

I cupped her cheeks to stop her from talking. "Enough, Yiyi. I would’ve died on my own if I knew you were going to do this to yourself. Just why?"

She smiled a little. "No one forced me to do this. As of now, I’m the only one who has the constitution and genetic structure to withstand your virus. In fact, my blood was able to suppress your virus until recently. If anyone else tried to subsume your virus they would most likely just die…"

I hurriedly wiped away the fresh blood, pulled out bundles of tissues from a tissue box and wiped away the fresh blood covering her face. My white shirt was stained with blood as a result. She smiled at me and said, "You got your shirt dirty…"

"It’s no problem…"

I held her hand tightly as another bloodied tear slid down her cheek. Feeling like my heart was caught in a vice grip, I asked quietly, "Does it hurt?"

Lin Yixin bit her lips and shook her head.

Behind us, Nangong Lexi...
