Chapter 1186 Nan Weiwei Wants to Break Up
In that thrilling kidnapping case, except for the mysterious masked man, the rest of the kidnappers were captured one by one like fish caught in a net.
In the cold interrogation room, they trembled and confessed everything they knew, claiming that they were sent by the masked man and driven by money to embark on this road of no return.
However, when asked about the true appearance of the masked man, everyone shook their heads, with fear and confusion flashing in their eyes. They claimed that from beginning to end, the man had been hiding in the shadows and had never revealed his true face. He was like a ghost, leaving only cold instructions and heavy gold coins in the dark night.
Nan Weiwei lay quietly on the hospital bed, her face as pale as paper, her eyes filled with indescribable complex emotions.
For the past three days, she seemed to have isolated herself from the world, rejecting the kindness of all visitors, leaving only Xu Xiaoxiao, who became the only bright spot in her dark time.
Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Xu Xiaoxiao would sit by the bed and whisper, trying to use warm words to dispel the gloom in Nan Weiwei's heart.
Nan Yifeng could not hide his anxiety and helplessness at the moment. He stood in the corridor of the hospital, looking into the distance through the layers of window lattices, feeling mixed emotions.
He knew that what Weiwei needed at the moment was time and space to digest those unbearable memories, but how could he not worry? So, this heavy worry turned into a deep exhortation to Xu Xiaoxiao:
"Xiaoxiao, Weiwei...what she needs most right now is understanding and companionship. Although I can't always be by her side, please tell her that no matter what happens, I, Nan Yifeng, will always be her strongest supporter."
At dusk, when the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the place golden, Xu Xiaoxiao shuttled through the crowd like a light butterfly, and finally found a quiet and secluded corner where no one would disturb her.
After her pretty figure paused for a moment, she reached out without hesitation to grab Nan Yifeng who was about to move forward, and carefully pulled him to her side.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao's face revealed a hint of barely perceptible hesitation, but more of it was an unprecedented serious expression.
She opened her red lips slightly, and with a slightly trembling voice, she spoke out the question that had been hidden deep in her heart for a long time: "Brother Yi Feng, I... I have a question that has actually been buried in my heart for a long time. Today, I finally mustered up the courage to ask you. Weiwei has experienced such a heartbreaking thing. Do you... do you dislike her because of these reasons?"
At this point, Xu Xiaoxiao's speech became a little intermittent, as if every word she uttered required a great deal of effort. It was obvious that her heart was filled with anxiety.
After hearing this, Nan Yifeng's originally relaxed brows couldn't help but slightly frowned, as if he fell into a brief contemplation.
But in just a moment, the slightly wrinkled brows gradually relaxed, and at the same time, a firm and extremely gentle light began to flash in his eyes as deep as a pool of water.
He just shook his head gently, and then responded in an affectionate tone:
"Xiaoxiao, it seems that you still don't know me well enough! Weiwei is like the most precious, unique and rare treasure in the world to me. The suffering and misfortune she has suffered only make me feel heartbroken. But please believe me, no matter what happens, even if the road ahead is full of thorns and obstacles, I will never have the slightest intention of retreating or disdain. The only thing on my mind at this moment is how to better protect her already broken heart and do my best to help her completely get rid of this painful and gloomy past. So, Xiaoxiao, you can put your heart back in your stomach. My sincere love for Weiwei will never change and will last until death!"
After finishing their conversation, the two smiled at each other. Although they did not say much, the tacit understanding and trust between them were enough to warm this slightly chilly winter.
The next morning, as the dawn broke over the horizon, Nan Yifeng stood at the door of the hospital, looking tenderly at the tightly closed window of the ward. Although he was reluctant to leave, he also knew that as the helmsman of the family business, he had many matters to deal with.
He sighed deeply, as if a heavy burden was pressing on his heart.
Finally, after some inner struggle, he slowly stretched out his finger and gently pressed the send button.
Instantly, a short but affectionate message appeared on the phone screen:
"Weiwei, have a good rest. I have important business to discuss outside today, so I may not be back until very late. But please believe me, I will come to see you no matter how late it is at night."
After sending this message, he stared at the screen of his mobile phone silently for a long time, his eyes revealing an indescribable attachment and reluctance.
However, time was running out and he could not stay too long. He gritted his teeth, turned around resolutely, and took firm but slightly heavy steps to set foot on the road to the airport.
His back was stretched out in the sunlight, appearing both resolute and helpless.
Every step felt like walking on the edge of a knife, full of pain and entanglement.
Those broad shoulders seemed a little hunched at this moment, as if they were under tremendous pressure.
The breeze blew gently, ruffling the corners of his clothes, but it could not blow away the gloom in his heart.
In the snow-white ward of the hospital, Nan Weiwei lay quietly on the slightly thin bed like a flower that had lost its vitality.
Her big, once lively eyes now became dull and lifeless, staring blankly at the pale ceiling above her head, as if the whole world had drifted away from her.
Her heart was like an overturned spice bottle, with all kinds of flavors intertwined together, making her feel extremely complicated and heavy.
The memories of the past, the unspoken words and the confusion about the future surged into her heart like a tide, constantly impacting her fragile mental defenses.
At this moment, a faint light suddenly flickered in the quiet ward.
It turned out that the screen of the mobile phone on the bedside table lit up, and a new message quietly arrived. Nan Weiwei glanced at it subconsciously, and when she saw that the sender was Nan Yifeng, her heart trembled suddenly.
Her hand reached out involuntarily, gently touching the screen of the phone, feeling the cool touch.
However, just such a simple action seemed to have exhausted all her courage.
After a brief yet long hesitation, she finally chose to put down her phone silently without replying to the other party.
Because she knew very well that Brother Yi Feng had his own responsibilities and obligations, which could not be easily avoided or given up.
For me, the most important thing to do at this moment is to leave myself enough time to sort out this tangled mess of emotions.
Just as Nan was immersed in her own thoughts, a gentle voice suddenly sounded in her ears:
"Is it news about Nan Yifeng?" It turned out that Xu Xiaoxiao had spoken at some point, looking at her with eyes full of concern and temptation.
She keenly noticed the subtle changes in Nan Weiwei's mood and was secretly worried.
Nan Weiwei nodded slightly, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say much.
Seeing this, Xu Xiaoxiao stopped asking questions and just sat quietly beside the bed, holding Nan Weiwei's hand, giving her silent support and comfort.
The ward fell into silence for a moment, with only the occasional bird song coming from outside the window, which seemed to be telling the story of spring and encouraging Nan Weiwei that no matter what kind of storm she encountered, there would always be a sunny day after the rain.
After a while, time seemed to freeze, and the whole room was shrouded in a dull and depressing atmosphere.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao, who had been silent all the time, could no longer suppress her inner anxiety and confusion. She took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to break the suffocating silence.
Xu Xiaoxiao's lips trembled slightly, and her voice was slightly trembling, mixed with a hint of anxiety and confusion that was difficult to conceal: "Weiwei, you...what are you going to do? Are you really going to ignore Nan Yifeng forever?"
After saying that, she involuntarily stretched out her hands and tightly grasped the slightly cold hands of Nan Weiwei beside her, as if she wanted to convey some strength and warmth to the other person in this way.
At this moment, Nan Weiwei, upon hearing her friend's concerned question, suddenly raised her head which had been lowered.
Her beautiful eyes were now bloodshot, her eye sockets were slightly red, and tears were welling up in her eyes, as if they would burst out at any time.
Then she slowly turned around and cast her empty eyes out the window.
The sky in the distance was gloomy, without a single ray of sunlight able to penetrate the clouds, just like her gloomy and desperate mood at the moment.
After a long while, Nan Weiwei said in a low and trembling voice that was almost a whisper:
"I... I don't know what to do. I feel that I am no longer clean and pure. Someone like me is not worthy of Nan Yifeng's love. So, maybe letting go is the best choice for both of us... After all, I am not worthy of him to have any feelings for me anymore."
After saying these words, Nan Weiwei seemed to have used up all her strength. She leaned weakly on the bed, closed her eyes, and let the tears slide down her cheeks.
These words were like an extremely heavy hammer, hitting Xu Xiaoxiao's heart with the force of thunder, instantly leaving her stunned and at a loss.
"What? How could this happen? Why? Could it be that... you really intend to part ways with Nan Yifeng?"
Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened in astonishment, and her originally clear and pleasant voice unconsciously rose several degrees.
She stared straight at Nan Weiwei in front of her, as if she wanted to see through the secrets hidden deep in her heart through her eyes.
Then, Xu Xiaoxiao threw out a series of questions like a string of cannonballs: "Is it because Nan Yifeng didn't do something right that made you unhappy? Or did he say something he shouldn't have said to you that hurt your feelings? Or... is it because he was flirting with other women behind your back?"
Her anxious and worried tone was mixed with deep confusion and bewilderment, as if she was eager to get a definite answer from Nan Weiwei to solve the tangled mystery in her heart.
Nan Weiwei's delicate body trembled slightly, she shook her head gently, tears as crystal clear as pearls swirled in her eyes, as if they would burst out at any time, but in the end she stubbornly held them back, not a single drop fell.
She took a deep breath, as if she wanted to absorb all the pain and sorrow into her lungs, and then slowly exhale.
Every breath was so difficult, as if a heavy burden was pressing on her thin shoulders.
After a long time, Nan Weiwei finally calmed down a little and said with a choked voice:
"Xiaoxiao, you don't understand. Ever since that incident, my heart has been torn into countless pieces. I feel so dirty and disgusting. Whenever I think of that moment, I wish I could find a hole in the ground to crawl into and never come out to see people again. And now, facing Brother Yi Feng's pure, sincere and deep love for me, how can I have the courage to accept it? A broken person like me is not worthy of him at all!"
