"Late-stage cancer?!"

Shen Zhixia stared at Meng Jinghuai in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief. "Wasn't he putting on an act with you all for my benefit?"

Hearing this, Meng Jinghuai became even angrier. "This is not acting at all, Shen Zhixia, stop being so self-righteous!"

"For so many years, you've been arbitrarily accusing Nan Chen of those unfounded crimes. Now that he's finally decided to divorce you, why won't you let him go?"

Meng Jinghuai's roar echoed throughout the ward; I could hear it, but I was powerless to stop it.

I watched everything unfold before my eyes in a blur, my whole body throbbing with pain that nearly made me lose consciousness.

If I were still alive this time, she would probably agree to divorce me.

Shen Zhixia took two steps back before regaining her balance, looking helplessly at me lying on the hospital bed, and murmured an explanation.

"I don't know, I really didn't know his illness was real, I..."

“Stay away from him!”

Meng Jinghuai roared and blocked Shen Zhixia's steps as she tried to approach me, then turned to look at the doctor who was rushing over.

"The patient is vomiting blood and is unconscious. Arrange for emergency treatment immediately."

After two nurses came in, they rushed me to the emergency room. As they pushed me out of the ward, I could still hear Shen Zhixia shouting behind me, "How could this happen?"

"I clearly saw on the medical record that he only had a normal stomach hemorrhage, how did it become late-stage cancer?"

When I was taken to the emergency room, Shen Zhixia followed closely to the door. Just as she was about to go in, two nurses stopped her.

"Emergency room, outsiders keep out."

Shen Zhixia stood frantically at the entrance of the emergency room, grabbing one of the nurses' hands as if she were grasping at a straw.

"He's only in his twenties, how could he have terminal cancer?"

"We are about to start the surgery, please do not interfere with the preparations."

After the nurse finished speaking urgently, she pulled Shen Zhixia's hand away and closed the emergency room door expressionlessly.

Shen Zhixia stood at the entrance of the emergency room, staring blankly at the red emergency room indicator light.

She didn't understand why things had turned out this way.

She locked him up just to teach him a lesson, so how did it turn out like this?

The cold and vicious words she used to say to him had come true at this moment, and she found them hard to accept.

"If his condition is real, then what about that medical record?"

Shen Zhixia suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of the ward, her hands trembling slightly at her sides: "Could it be that this is also an act?"

A nurse opened the emergency room door and hurried off to the blood bank to get blood.

He had only taken two steps when Shen Zhixia blocked his way, "How much do you need to cooperate in a play?"

"The patient's condition is critical, please do not delay our treatment of the patient."

After the nurse finished speaking with a serious expression, she walked around Shen Zhixia and left in a hurry, leaving Shen Zhixia standing there in a daze.

She couldn't understand why, when the patient was already in such a serious condition that he was vomiting blood, the family member was still being suspicious and unwilling to believe the truth.

As Shen Zhixia watched the nurse hurriedly leave, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest.

She kept demanding that he pay for his crimes in blood, but why did she feel so bad when it actually happened?

Just then, an anxious voice came from not far away.

"Xiaxia, are you alright?"

The person running towards Shen Zhixia was Xu Jin.

When he heard that Shen Zhixia had been staying at the hospital with me for the past two days, he dropped everything he was doing and rushed to the hospital.

He always thought she didn't care about him at all, but he never expected to see this scene.

Xu Jin stood next to Shen Zhixia, panting slightly, supporting her somewhat limp body with one hand.

"Xiaxia, are you sick?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Shen Zhixia turned to look at the man beside her with reddened eyes. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but nothing came out.

When Xu Jin saw her like this, his eyes darkened.

He had always thought that Shen Zhixia hated him, but what he saw today overturned his understanding.

He was afraid that Shen Zhixia would reconcile with him because of this, and he would lose everything he had gained.

After hesitating for a while, he still asked a question, feigning doubt.

"Nan Chen has always been in good health, how could he suddenly fall ill?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhixia turned and looked at him sharply, "How did you know that the person lying in the emergency room was Ji Nanchen?"

"I……"

Xu Jin was stunned for a moment, then quickly came up with an excuse, and pitifully explained with her head down: "You haven't contacted me these past few days, and I thought you didn't want me anymore, so... I secretly went to your assistant and asked where you were."

"It was your assistant who told me that Nan Chen was sick, and you stayed at the hospital with him."

Shen Zhixia's expression softened as she looked at him, and she pursed her lips without saying a word.

At this moment, I am lying on the operating table, listening to the voices of doctors and nurses, and the sounds of cold instruments.

Shen Zhixia, now that you know I have terminal cancer, will you be able to divorce me?

But this time I'm really tired.

Living is so tiring.

I let myself sink into darkness, reflecting on all the big and small things I've experienced in my life, and finally realized that there wasn't anything worth cherishing.

"Dr. Lin, the patient's breathing is slowing down, and the electrocardiogram is showing abnormalities!"

The attending physician looked up at the instrument and quickly said, "The patient has lost the will to live. Go out immediately and have the family sign the critical condition notice."

After the nurse nodded, she picked up the documents and walked towards the door as quickly as possible.

She opened the door to the emergency room and hurriedly stopped in front of Shen Zhixia and the other person.

"Are you the patient's family members? The patient's vital signs are unstable, and we need to sign a critical condition notice immediately so that the surgery can continue."

Shen Zhixia froze, and asked in a trembling voice, "What did you say?"

He was perfectly healthy, only in his twenties, and was just rushed into the emergency room for treatment. How could he be dying so quickly?

Xu Jin's eyes flickered slightly as she gently urged, "Xiaxia, you need to sign quickly! Nan Chen's condition can't be delayed."

That's what he said, but in reality, he wished I would die quickly so he could legitimately follow Shen Zhixia.

The nurse nodded in agreement. "The patient's condition is critical. Please sign the papers quickly."

Shen Zhixia trembled as she took the pen from the nurse and crookedly signed her name on the critical condition notice.

She didn't know what was wrong with her; a sharp pain throbbed in her chest, slowly spreading throughout her body.

The nurse took the signed critical condition notice and turned to leave when Shen Zhixia suddenly staggered after her, asking, "He'll be alright, won't he?"
