Don't meet me in your next life.

Chapter 45 Deciding to Let Go

"Stop hitting him!" Xiang Yi didn't dare to step forward and could only shout from the side.

Xiao Zhao stepped forward to stop him, but Lin Lubai stopped him.

Xiao Qing tried to pull them away, but she couldn't stop the two big men at all and was knocked down by them.

If Lu Sichen had been able to put up a fight with Lin Lubai in the past, he would have been defeated in an instant.

Lin Lubai was clearly a trained fighter, and Lu Sichen suffered a lot of losses, getting thoroughly beaten down.

Fortunately, Lin Lubai didn't intend to kill him; he was just venting his anger, but Lu Sichen still ended up with bruises on his face.

Seeing that Lu Sichen's face was bruised, Xiang Yi could no longer care about anything else and went straight up to pull Lin Lubai away: "Lin Lubai, I said, stop hitting him."

Lin Lubai was afraid of bumping into her, so he could only let go of Lu Sichen and carefully get up.

Lu Sichen got up, intending to make another move, but upon seeing Xiang Yiyi, he stopped, afraid of hurting her.

"You're actually protecting him?" Lin Lubai asked her angrily.

“Lin Lubai, he’s your brother,” Xiang Yi said angrily.

"You know he's my brother? Then why are you still with him?" Lin Lubai was furious.

"Lin Lubai, don't talk nonsense. He and I are innocent," Xiang Yi said.

"Innocence? You're telling me you're innocent? You came to see him as soon as you got off the plane, and you say you're innocent?" Lin Lubai roared.

“Lin Lubai, it’s not what you think, and we’re already divorced,” Xiang Yi said.

"Divorced? Yes, divorced." Lin Lubai took two steps back. "You like him that much? If you like him that much, why did you flirt with me? Xiang Yiyi, you are a fickle woman."

Upon hearing about the divorce, Lin Lu blurted out...

"Lin Lubai, that's enough. You already have a fiancée, why are you still bothering Yi Yi? What do you mean by that?" Lu Sichen said.

"What do I mean? What do you mean? You slept with your sister-in-law, and she's carrying your nephew. And you're asking me what I mean?" Lu Sichen sneered.

"You bastard." Lu Sichen wanted to attack.

Xiang Yi stood between the two of them.

"Lu Sichen, I bankrupted your Lu family, and you still sleep with the women I slept with, hahaha." Lin Lubai mocked Lu Sichen.

"Get out! Get out of here!" Xiang Yi said angrily.

"Lin Lubai, don't forget, you also have the blood of the Lu family. Even if you don't want to admit it, you are still his son." Lu Sichen pointed at him through gritted teeth.

"Don't mention him to me. He's your father, he has nothing to do with me!" Lin Lubai pointed at him angrily, and even tried to hit him.

"Lin Lubai, can we please not involve Lu Sichen in our affairs?" Xiang Yi asked.

"You're still defending him? Xiang Yiyi, do you think I can't live without you?" Lin Lubai gritted his teeth.

"Lin Lubai, can't you wake up?" Xiang Yi's eyes were filled with tears.

“My wife slept with my brother, how the hell do you expect me to be sober? Don’t worry, I’ll make you regret this,” Lin Lubai said angrily.

"Lin Lubai, I, Lu Sichen, am not afraid of death, but don't bully Yi Yi," Lu Sichen said.

"Get out! Get out of here!" Xiang Yi cried, pointing to the door.

Lin Lubai was stunned. Seeing Xiang Yiyi like this, he actually felt heartache and wanted to go up and hug her.

He's not a simp, he's not spineless, she's just a woman!

He turned and walked toward the door. Every step felt like walking on a knife's edge, yet he wouldn't allow himself to retreat; he wouldn't back down.

Watching Lin Lubai walk out, Xiang Yi slumped into a chair, letting out a long breath, but she still felt suffocated. The dull pain and oppression made her feel terrible.

Lin Lubai gritted his teeth and walked out. He got into the car, feeling utterly empty inside. He loved her so much, yet she was so heartless.

He took out a cigarette, lit it, and inhaled deeply, as if trying to draw the smoke into his stomach, then exhaled deeply. His eyes were red, whether from the smoke or from sadness, it was hard to tell.

After finishing one cigarette, he lit another. After a long, long time, Lin Lubai finally said to Xiao Zhao in a hoarse voice, "Let's go back."

They hadn't gone far when it started to rain. The sound of raindrops made Lin Lubai's voice hoarse, and he couldn't speak. He felt like a joke.

As soon as Lin Lubai left, Lu Sichen slumped to the ground, feeling utterly exhausted. He had used all his strength in that fight.

Xiang Yi's tears were still wet when she saw Lu Sichen like this, and she quickly went over to ask him, "Are you alright?"

Xiao Qing also came over: "Lu Sichen, how come you're so weak?"

"I'm fine." Lu Sichen smiled. "It's normal to not exercise for a long time. Besides, he's my brother, so I have to give in to him."

Xiang Yi looked at him with a hint of helplessness.

To ease Gang's unpleasant mood, Xiao Qing suggested going shopping and buying some snacks.

Lu Sichen thought that the milk was almost gone and it would be a good time to stock up, so he agreed.

Xiang Yi made an excuse that she was a little tired and did not go with them. She asked Xiao Qing to bring her some calcium tablets and went back to her room to rest.

As soon as she entered the room, Xiang Yi lay down on the bed and began to sob. She dared not make a sound, afraid that they would find out.

Lin Lubai has found a new love, and Lu Sichen has been diagnosed with brain cancer. Only she can understand this kind of pain. It's as if the child in her womb knows how sad she is and kicks her a few times from inside her.

Feeling the child move, Xiang Yi quickly stopped crying, trying hard to suppress her emotions that were about to collapse.

Not daring to look at them with her red eyes, Xiang Yi could only try to distract herself.

She took out her computer and paintbrush and began designing a wedding dress for Su Qiaoqiao. But as soon as she started, she felt empty inside, her mind filled with images of her engagement to Lin Lubai, and her sweet smile.

Unable to continue drawing, Xiang Yi could only take a shower to wash away all the unhappiness of the day.

After calming herself down a bit, she turned on her computer and contacted her mentor, asking her to help her connect with a renowned international neurosurgeon.

"Teacher, I'd like to ask you for a favor?" Xiang Yi asked.

"Tell me about it," the teacher said to her.

"I would like you to help me contact a specialist in brain tumors. My friend has a brain tumor."

"Okay, send me the information later and I'll ask around for you."

"Thank you, teacher."

Her mentor said that if she didn't want to stay in China, she could go to LS to find her. Xiang Yi told her that she wanted to stay with her friend and help her get better first. The two chatted about their recent situations before hanging up the video call.

After finishing her chat with her supervisor, Xiang Yi posted a message in the classmate group, hoping for recommendations for skilled traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.

As long as there is a glimmer of hope, she doesn't want to give up.

After doing all that, she lay in bed and touched her belly: "Come on, baby, we can do it."
