Is Chapter 103 a redemption? Or a haven?
"boom!"
The woman who was stopped by Jiang Songchu suddenly seemed to lose all her strength, collapsed to the ground, and burst into tears, her cries filled with despair and helplessness.
The man was also quite frightened. He looked at Jiang Songchu and the woman with a pale face, then turned around and ran out the door, cursing "crazy woman" before disappearing outside.
Jiang Songchu's gaze fell on the woman in front of her, her delicate brows furrowing slightly, a surge of indescribable annoyance rising in her heart.
Although she had been engaged to Gu Tianrong, her romantic life was actually a blank. She and her fiancé were like strangers, having met only a handful of times.
However, this did not prevent Jiang Songchu from judging from the other party's behavior and her keen intuition that this man was a complete scumbag.
However, she simply couldn't understand why a woman would be so deeply involved in this relationship, or why she would be so infatuated with such a heartless and ungrateful man, unable to extricate herself from it.
Jiang Songchu opened her mouth, wanting to say a few words of comfort, but found that her words seemed somewhat pale and powerless, and in the end she could only let out a soft sigh.
At this moment, a nurse quickly came over and gently comforted the woman, trying to pull her back from the brink of collapse.
Seeing this, Jiang Songchu turned to Dr. Hao beside him and said firmly, "Dr. Hao, saving Mimi is the priority. If their family is unwilling to take responsibility, I will settle the bill."
Upon hearing this, Dr. Hao nodded slightly, then instructed the nurse to see if there were any other doctors to administer the vaccine to Mo Bao, while he hurriedly took Mimi to the operating room.
Jiang Songchu had no objection to this, and gently waved his hand, indicating that Dr. Hao should go ahead and get busy.
At this moment, the woman's crying gradually subsided, perhaps because she saw that Mimi had been properly taken care of, or perhaps because the nurse's comforting words had an effect.
Jiang Songchu gently put down the calligraphy in his arms, his gaze falling on the woman again, his tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible tenderness: "For a man like this, do you really think it's worth sacrificing the rest of your life?"
Upon hearing this, the woman trembled slightly, tears welling up in her eyes, but she forced them back down.
She shook her head, choking back tears, and sobbed as she said to Jiang Songchu, "Thank you for stopping me today. I really don't know what to do. Mimi is very important to me. She is the only thing my mother left me, and I must save her."
At this point, the woman's tone carried a hint of helplessness and despair.
"But I'm penniless right now and can't afford to spend that much money to save her."
"Could you pay for me first? I can write you an IOU, and I can also take a photo of my ID card for your records. I will definitely work hard to earn money to pay you back."
As Jiang Songchu listened to the woman's repeated pleas, an indescribable sense of helplessness welled up in his heart.
She sighed softly and said, "No problem, I can pay your medical expenses first. But I have a question, can you help me answer it?"
Upon hearing this, the woman nodded slightly. Jiang Songchu hesitated for a moment before asking, "He's treated you like this, do you still want to be with him?"
After Jiang Songchu finished speaking, the woman seemed to be organizing her thoughts.
"I...I really don't know how to describe it. He was like the only ray of light in my life, illuminating the endless darkness I had once known..."
The woman's voice trembled slightly, and tears welled in her eyes, as if every word she uttered carried the weight of a heavy past.
She took a deep breath, seemingly trying to calm herself, and then continued.
“When I was a child, I experienced that nightmare... I was assaulted by my uncle, but my father sided with his younger brother and tried to make a big deal out of it. At that time, I felt helpless and desperate, as if the whole world had collapsed.”
"Only my mother, that strong woman with only an elementary school education, was like a towering mountain. She resolutely chose to divorce my father and shouldered our family with her frail shoulders."
"She single-handedly raised me, provided me with education, and gave me endless love and warmth. She sheltered me from the wind and rain, and built a solid wall for me with her love."
"Finally, I was admitted to Nanjing Forestry University, which I had longed for. However, fate played a cruel joke on me."
“My mother was suddenly diagnosed with cancer. During that time, I felt like all my strength had been drained away. Watching my mother struggle in pain, I was powerless to help. Less than six months later, she left me forever…”
"I haven't had a chance to repay her for giving me life and raising me, and she's gone so suddenly."
"In the last period of her life before she passed away, she raised Mimi."
"I know that's what she did so that I would have something to rely on, so that even after losing her, I could still feel the warmth and companionship of life."
"She is telling me that I am not alone in this world."
“I lost my mother, I can’t lose Mimi too.”
"So, no matter what, I will do everything I can to save Mimi, even if it costs me a lot."
The woman's tears began to fall again, but her tone remained firm.
"Later, I met him, my senior, who is also the man you just saw. He was like a ray of sunshine that shone into my world."
"Whenever he had time, he would accompany me to class, take me to taste all kinds of delicious food, and listen to my deepest secrets and pain. His appearance made me feel the beauty of life again."
"However, when he confessed his feelings to me, I chickened out."
“I cried and told him about my childhood experiences, and that I felt incomplete and unworthy of someone as outstanding as him.”
"After hearing this, he was only slightly taken aback, then gently wiped away my tears and told me that he didn't mind my past and that he would always stay by my side."
"At that moment, I felt that I had found salvation, a safe haven to rely on."
“I thought that the person in this world who was willing to accept my broken self would cherish me and love me. So I agreed to be with him.”
“At first, we were really happy. He would go shopping with me, watch movies with me, and we would plan our future together.”
"However, as time went on, he gradually started asking me to hold his hand, kiss him, and then... I agreed to all of them."
"I feel like he's the one for me in this life anyway, so what difference does it make if it's a little earlier or later?"
"But ever since he got me, he's like a different person. He stopped pretending, and he no longer cares about me or spends time with me like before."
"It just so happened that he graduated, and the employment situation was tough. He couldn't find a good job, so he stayed in our rented room every day playing video games instead of going out to try his luck."
"He even started hitting me and verbally abusing me, calling me cheap and saying I was a slut..."
"Even so, I still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that his setback was only temporary and that as long as I stayed by his side, everything would be alright."
"After all, besides him, who else would be willing to accept someone like me who has been violated..."
