The Legend of Cinderella's Counterattack

His fingers moved, and my heart trembled. I held his hand tightly, "Yuxuan, is that you? Can you hear me?" His fingers moved slightly, as if responding to me. I excitedly called the doctor. The doctor came to check and said that his condition was stable and he was slowly regaining consciousness, but he was still very weak and needed a long period of rest and treatment.

My heart finally settled down. I stayed by his side day and night, cleaning him, feeding him water, talking to him, and telling him stories. Occasionally, he would open his eyes and look at me, his eyes confused, but I knew he could recognize me, and that was enough.

A month later, Yuxuan's physical condition improved and he was able to get out of bed and walk around, but the doctor said that the hospital environment was not conducive to his recovery and suggested that we change the environment.

I decided to take Yuxuan out of the city and to a quiet place so that he could recover in peace. I started packing my things, and Yuxuan sat by the bed, watching me busy, his eyes full of guilt and heartache.

"Lolo, I'm sorry for making you suffer." His voice was hoarse, but full of sincerity.

I stopped what I was doing, walked over to him, and hugged him gently. "Silly boy, what are you talking about? We are husband and wife, and it's my duty to take care of you. Besides, seeing you recover makes me happier than anything else."

I decided to take him to a seaside town with fresh air and beautiful environment, which was suitable for recuperation. I contacted Officer Li, who helped me arrange everything and sent two reliable policemen to secretly protect us.

I helped Yuxuan complete the discharge procedures, then helped him into the car and left this hospital full of sad memories.

It was late at night when we left the hospital. Officer Li arranged for a nondescript black car and two plainclothes officers to escort us. I sat in the back seat, Yuxuan leaning on my shoulder. He was still a little pale, but in much better spirits.

"Thank you for your hard work, Officer Li." I turned and said to Officer Li who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Ms. Lin, you're so polite. This is what we should do." Officer Li glanced at me through the rearview mirror and said, "Don't worry, we've made arrangements. No media will disturb you."

I nodded, then turned around and gently shook Yuxuan's hand. He shook my hand in return and gave me a weak smile. The car drove for about three hours and finally stopped in a quiet town.

As soon as I got off the car, I felt a fresh breeze blowing towards me, with a hint of sea salt. I took a deep breath and felt a lot more relaxed.

Officer Li helped us carry our luggage and brought us to a small white villa facing the sea.

"Ms. Lin, this is where you will live for a period of time. The environment is beautiful and very safe. You can rest assured and recuperate here." said Officer Li.

I looked around. The environment here is quiet, with birds singing and flowers blooming. It is indeed a good place to recuperate.

"Thank you, Officer Li, I'm sorry to bother you." I said gratefully.

"Of course. If you need anything, please feel free to contact us," said Officer Li.

After seeing Officer Li off, I helped Yuxuan into the villa. The villa's decoration style was simple and warm. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room faced the sea, and the sunlight poured in, making the whole room look particularly bright.

I helped Yuxuan sit down on the sofa and started packing.

"Lolo, it's so beautiful here." Yuxuan said softly, looking at the sea outside the window.

"As long as you like it, we will live here for a while. When you are better, we will make plans." I walked to him and hugged him gently.

Yuxuan turned his head and looked at me affectionately, "Lolo, thank you, thank you for always being by my side."

I leaned my head on his shoulder and said, "Silly boy, we are husband and wife, why are you saying these things?"

The days that followed were peaceful and warm. Every morning, we would walk hand in hand along the coastline, watching the sun slowly rise over the sea. In the afternoons, we would sit on the balcony, sipping afternoon tea, chatting, and watching seagulls fly over the water. At night, we would snuggle together, gazing at the starry sky, listening to the crashing of waves against the rocks, enjoying the tranquility and romance that belonged only to us...

Every morning, we are awakened by the sound of waves. When we open the curtains, we can see the golden sunlight shining on the sparkling sea. Breathing the fresh salty air, we feel that the day is full of hope.

Yuxuan's complexion is getting better day by day. He started to exercise every day. At the beginning, he could only walk a few steps, but now he can accompany me to run around the beach path.

"Lolo, do you think I'm recovering quickly?" He ran to me with a smile, and like a child, happily showed me his "results".

"Yes, yes, you're the best!" I smiled and patted his hands. "But don't be too aggressive. Take it slow."

"I know, I'll do what I can." He said, holding my hand, "Lolo, when I'm fully recovered, we'll get married and travel around the world together, okay?"

I looked into his eyes and said seriously, "Okay, let's travel around the world together and see all the beautiful scenery in the world."

"Thank you, Luoluo." He hugged me in his arms, "Thank you for always staying by my side and never leaving me."

I know that after going through so much, he has become more mature and stable, and he cherishes the relationship between us more.

We plan and look forward to the future together, as if all the storms have passed and the future is bright.

However, a peaceful life is always short-lived. Danger is like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, which may give us a fatal blow at any time.

That evening, we were walking hand in hand along the beach as usual. Suddenly, several black vans came speeding by and stopped in front of us. A group of burly men in black clothes and sunglasses got out of the vans, wielding gleaming machetes, and approached us...

I felt a chill run down my spine. Before I could react, Yuxuan shielded me behind him and whispered, "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The bald man in the lead sneered: "Mr. Lu, how are you? Our boss said that the last matter is not over yet, and today we are here to settle the score with you!"

"Who is your boss? We have no grudges against each other, why are you trying to kill us all?" Yuxuan stood in front of me, his eyes wide open with anger.

"Hmph, you have no right to know who our boss is. Brothers, charge!" The bald man gave an order, and those people rushed towards us waving machetes.

"Ah!" I screamed in fright and closed my eyes tightly.

"Don't be afraid, Lolo, I'm here!" Yuxuan protected me tightly behind him, and then fought with those people.

Although I was scared, I knew I couldn't just sit there and wait for death. I looked around and saw a big rock not far away. I rushed over, picked up the rock, and threw it at those people.

"Bang!" The stone hit a man's back, and the man screamed and fell to the ground.

"You bitch, you dare to hit my brother, you're looking for death!" Seeing this, the bald man roared and rushed towards me waving a machete.

I was so scared that I turned around and wanted to run, but it was too late. The bald man's machete was already in front of me...

"Be careful!" At this critical moment, a figure suddenly rushed over and knocked me to the ground.

"Puff!" Blood splattered everywhere. I opened my eyes in horror and saw Yuxuan collapsed on top of me. A gleaming machete was stuck in his chest, and his clothes were stained red with blood...

"Yuxuan!" I cried heartbreakingly, tears falling like beads from a broken string.

"Lolo, don't be afraid, I'm fine..." Yuxuan said with difficulty, but a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"You lied to me, how could you be okay, you lost so much blood..." I cried uncontrollably and tried desperately to cover the wound on his chest, but the blood still kept pouring out.

"Lolo, don't waste your energy. I don't have much time... anymore..." Yuxuan grabbed my hand and said weakly.

"No, I don't want you to die, you can't die..." I shook my head, tears blurred my vision.

"Lolo, promise me that you will live well..." Yuxuan's voice became weaker and weaker, and his hands gradually loosened.

"No, I don't agree. I don't want you to die..." I hugged him and cried heartbreakingly.

At this moment, a burst of sirens sounded from far away. Seeing this, the men in black dropped their machetes and fled in all directions.

When Officer Li and the police arrived, I was sitting on the ground holding Yuxuan, who was covered in blood, crying like a tearful person.

"Ms. Lin, what happened?" Officer Li was shocked when he saw this scene and hurried over to ask.

"Officer Li, save him, please, save him..." I grabbed Officer Li's clothes and begged while crying.

Officer Li looked at Yuxuan, who was lying on the ground without breathing, and then looked at me, his eyes full of sympathy and helplessness.

"Ms. Lin, I express my condolences..."
