No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

Jiang Hua emerged from the bathroom, a light mist clinging to her body, her eyes still wet. She glanced at the dimly lit study in the empty cubicle. Usually… he would have left by now. She checked the time: 9:30…

Jiang Hua ignored him. It took her an hour to dry her long hair, and she didn't go to bed until around 10:30.

The faint sounds coming from the study faded away around midnight.

In the darkened room, Jiang Hua was covered with a thin fleece blanket when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest. She opened her eyes in pain and reached for the medicine bottle under her pillow. She then realized that she had forgotten to bring her medicine back to the apartment. She had come back for dinner tonight and had forgotten to bring it with her.

She reached out to touch the spot by the headboard, but suddenly, she slipped off the bed along with the blanket and fell to the floor…

But she no longer had the strength to stand up and touch the emergency button by the bed. She could only clutch her chest, curled up in pain and helplessness. Jiang Hua, consumed by pain, ignored the cold gaze that fell upon her, until… she tasted a metallic sweetness in her mouth…

In that moment of blurred consciousness, the intense pain gradually began to numb, causing her brain to lose control and she to lose consciousness...

Jiang Hua: I finally got a second chance at life... and now... am I going to die again?

Half past one in the morning.

Jiang Hua's limp body leaned against the man's shoulder. Pei Zhan held the woman, opened a bottle of medicine, poured out two pills, and fed them to her.

"Drink water."

Pei Zhan fed her the medicine by the glass of water on the bedside table. Jiang Hua was slightly conscious, and she gently opened her lips, drank some water, and swallowed the medicine. The medicine took effect quickly, and the pain of her heart pounding violently had disappeared.

"...That's how Grandma passed away. She was only thirty years old when she died. The hereditary heart disease in the Jiang family is like a curse. No one who inherits it can live past thirty. My aunt...the youngest she ever died was at twenty-five when she suddenly had a heart attack."

"Perhaps I won't be so lucky when it's my turn. Maybe... I can only hold on for another three years, or maybe two..."

"Actually, you didn't need to save me. My death... would probably suit you just fine. Without me, Dad will let you continue to inherit the company, and you can remarry Song Qingran..."

"Let's divorce. I'll make her Mrs. Pei..."

As she uttered the last word, Jiang Hua's hand fell from his chest, and she drifted off to sleep in his arms once more. She... was too weak...

Her breathing was so faint that you could barely hear her heartbeat…

It really seemed as if he were dead.

Jiang Hua possesses everything that everyone envies, but she doesn't have a complete and healthy body. She is even incomplete and broken, dragging around a tattered shell.

Perhaps, for Jiang Hua now, it's just a pipe dream, just like in her previous life, she lived to the age of thirty-three.

Pei Zhan dialed a number: "The new medication Miss Jiang is taking is the first-generation special drug. However, later experimental studies have suggested that long-term use of that drug can have serious side effects. I've told you about this before. Miss Jiang's strong reaction is probably just a side effect of the first-generation drug. Once drug resistance develops, such situations may decrease, but we can't rule out other possibilities. I still suggest that Miss Jiang continue using the original medication."

An invisible pressure instantly descended upon Pei Zhan, and his voice deepened, "I understand."

In the early hours of the morning, a black luxury car sped through the dark night.

The accelerator was floored, almost as if desperately chasing something…

Jiang Hua was wearing a heart rate bracelet, which showed that her heart rate was lower than normal.

If the temperature drops any further, Jiang Hua could go into shock at any moment.

Jing'an Private Hospital.

Pei Zhan carried Jiang Hua to the operating room.

Zuo Xiangnan also rushed to the hospital immediately.

In the operating room, Wen Huaishi never expected to encounter her at this moment; she was the one whose life was hanging by a thread…

...

Jiang Hua was in a coma in the hospital for a week before she woke up.

During this time, apart from the caregiver, no one in the Jiang family knew that Jiang Hua was hospitalized.

Because of this, Pei Zhan has already kept it from him.

In the hospital, Jiang Hua sat in the corridor with a blank look in her eyes and a pale face. She was wearing a hospital gown from Jing'an Private Hospital, and the heart rate bracelet on her wrist was beating normally.

Then a little boy, about five or six years old, with skin so white it seemed to glow, holding a lollipop and wearing a black baseball cap, walked up to Jiang Hua and asked, "Sister, are you sick too?"

The little boy looked like he had leukemia.

But it's not ugly at all; on the contrary, it looks like a little angel with broken wings, dazzling in the sunlight.

"Yes! My sister is sick too."

"Sister, Mom said that eating candy will make you feel better soon." The little boy's black eyes sparkled.

Then the little boy picked out two pink-wrapped lollipops from his pocket and put them into Jiang Hua's hand.

"What illness does my sister have?"

Jiang Hua's voice was as weak as a falling leaf as she said, "A disease that is... very, very, very difficult to cure."

"Oh, that's okay! The doctors here are the best, and... I know all the doctors here! My favorite is Uncle Wen. Uncle Wen will definitely cure my sister, and then my sister will definitely get better."

In the corridor, a woman's anxious voice could be heard, searching for her child.

"An'an, where are you!"

The little boy looked back and said, "My mom is looking for me, I have to go back now."

"Sister, you should be just like An'an, work hard and keep it up!"

"If you're scared, sister, you can come to An'an anytime. An'an will tell you stories..."

Jiang Hua replied, "Okay."

After the little boy left, another white figure walked over and sat down beside her. Seeing the candy in Jiang Hua's hand, the man reached out and tore open the pink transparent candy wrapper and gave it to her. "How...are you today?"

Jiang Hua: "What's wrong with it? It's just like that anyway."

"Take it one day at a time..."

Wen Huaishi said, "I have told your husband everything about your situation. I will see how things go about the heart transplant and wait until a suitable heart donor is found... If the surgery is successful, you have a 60% chance of returning to a normal life."

"Actually... he comes to see you every night you rest."

“Dr. Wen, if I hadn’t mentioned him, I might have lived a little longer,” Jiang Hua joked.

"Okay, let's not talk about him. Once the tests are done, you can leave the hospital anytime you want. Do you need me to call him and have him come pick you up?"

Jiang Hua: "No need, I'll go back by myself."

In the afternoon, Jiang Hua left the hospital without permission again.

Didn't tell anyone.

I always order food delivered.

I rested at home for three days.

If Jiang Hua doesn't go soon, she's really going to lose all her credits at school.

In her previous life, Jiang Hua had undergone a heart transplant when she was twenty-one years old. The success rate was very high at the time. After the surgery, she thought she could finally live like a normal person. However, she couldn't escape the calamity of fate and didn't live past thirty-five.

This is probably my fate in this life too!

Jiang Hua cooperated with the treatment as much as possible with the surgery. She thought that if she could divorce Pei Zhan this time, she might be able to live to be eighty years old.

Teito University.

When Xu Qing and Xue Ruyao saw Jiang Hua standing outside the door, their expressions became intriguing.

"How come I keep running into her everywhere! She's like a persistent ghost."

"That's really bad luck."

Song Qingran glanced cautiously at Jiang Hua's expression and quickly stepped forward to say, "Please don't say that. I'm sorry, Senior Jiang. I hope you don't mind."
