Chapter 309 - Life Fading Away
Chapter 309: Life Fading Away
A pair of hands pushed Qiu Tong away. She staggered to the ground. Jin Yang collapsed weakly into her arms.
Qiu Tong hugged Jin Yang tightly. Seeing the blood flowing out of his chest, she shook her head violently and muttered, “No!”
Jin Yang forced a smile on his lips, wanting to comfort Qiu Tong, but his actions made Qiu Tong’s tears flow even faster.
Qiu Tong pressed her palm against Jin Yang’s chest, trying to use her special ability to heal the wound. She ignored the countless pairs of eyes staring at her. There was only one thought in her mind. She had to save Jin Yang!
Countless memories surged into Qiu Tong’s mind. She remembered everything!
“Jin Yang, you promised me that we would grow old together. You can’t go back on your word…”
“You owe me a wedding. You can’t abandon me like this. Otherwise, I’ll hate you forever! I’ll never forgive you.”
Qiu Tong felt that her special ability was useless against Jin Yang’s injuries. She hugged him in a panic and muttered to herself.
Song Yan walked towards Jin Tao with a murderous glint in his eyes.
Jin Tao looked at Jin Yang, who was lying in a pool of blood. For some reason, he recalled the time when they were just children. Two identical boys would surround him with toy guns and toy planes, clamoring for his attention.
At that time, they were also very happy. When did things start to deteriorate irreversibly?
Jin Tao couldn’t remember. He picked up the gun on the ground as if he had lost his will to fight and slowly aimed it at his temple.
“Song Yan, you don’t have to do anything.”
At the end, Jin Tao chose to end his life, to end his own ambitions and greed.
He gave Song Yan the only mercy he could, to not let his son have to kill his own father.
Jin Tao knew that no matter how cold-blooded Song Yan was, he would not be able to bear the psychological trauma of killing his father.
Jin Tao slowly closed his eyes. He didn’t regret his actions, but he hated himself for failing in the end and losing to his two sons.
Meanwhile, Qiu Xingyuan, Qiu Xingqiao and Little Yu rushed to Jin Yang’s side.
Their eyes were filled with tears as they looked at Jin Yang. They called out in hoarse voices, “Daddy!” Their shouts made Jin Yang a little more alert. He sat up in Qiu Tong’s arms and raised his hand to touch Qiu Xingyuan’s face.
Two streaks of blood appeared on Qiu Xingyuan’s face. Jin Yang frowned and looked at him. “Don’t cry. A man shouldn’t cry.”
“I have no regrets now. I was able to hear you call me Daddy.”
Qiu Xingyu threw herself into Jin Yang’s arms, her tears blurring her vision. She tugged at Jin Yang’s sleeve and said, “It’ll be fine!”
“Elder Brother is very powerful. Grandpa, too. They can save you, right?”
Qiu Xingyu turned to look at Qiu Rong, but Qiu Rong lowered his head in silence. The bullet had pierced through his chest. From the amount of blood loss and his current condition, even if he were to undergo surgery on the spot, it would be hopeless. He could only let Jin Yang say his last words.
“Be good. Daddy knows that you’re all great. Without me by Mommy’s side in the future, you have to bear this responsibility for Daddy.”
“Don’t argue with Mommy in future, okay?”
Jin Yang coughed and spat out two mouthfuls of blood.
Qiu Tong’s eyes were empty and numb as she covered the wound on his chest. She couldn’t hear anything.
“Song Yan!”
Jin Yang’s gaze landed on Song Yan. Song Yan knelt beside Jin Yang and suppressed his emotions as he whispered, “Tell me!”
“I need you to be the president. I know you’re bold and more resourceful than me. You can definitely do better.”
“Shao An will assist you. Do well for me! Got it?”
Jin Yang held Song Yan’s hand tightly. The two brothers finally understood each other’s hearts now, but it was too late.
“I want to… talk to Qiu Tong alone.”
Jin Yang spoke slowly and with difficulty. Qiu Rong dragged Qiu Xingyuan, Qiu Xingqiao and Little Yu out of the laboratory. Only the two of them were left in the empty and quiet room. Qiu Tong stared at his face, as if she wanted to engrave his image in her mind.
She suddenly smiled and said self-deprecatingly, “You enjoy being a hero?”
“Who asked you to protect me? You want me to live on, beholden to you, so that I will never forget you.” f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶
“Jin Yang, that’s impossible! If you dare to close your eyes, I will definitely leave with you…”
Qiu Tong said firmly. Her gaze landed on the dagger on the ground in the distance.
Jin Yang touched her lips with difficulty. He gave a gentle smile. “Tongtong, don’t be stubborn.” ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢
“The children are still young and they need you to take care of them. Song Yan is rash and there are many things that you will need to keep an eye on…”
“I can see Song Yan’s feelings for you. After I leave, you might consider being with him… that’s a good choice.”
Jin Yang helped Qiu Tong arrange her future life. Qiu Tong shifted her gaze away and clenched her fists tightly. Her nails dug into her palms and blood dripped onto the ground, but it could not compare to the pain of her heartache.
“Smile and don’t let me see you cry, okay?”
Jin Yang said weakly. Qiu Tong could feel his life energy fading bit by bit. She smiled with tears falling.
