Her expression was too serious, Cui Lifei immediately went to the bathroom, pulled off the collar, and looked up at the mirror.

He has never paid attention to these injuries, because apart from seeing them occasionally, there is no sense of existence at all other times, and they are neither painful nor itchy.He just stood there quietly and was ignored in a blink of an eye.He didn't know when the hard scab fell off, maybe this morning?Or was it last night?

Tang Ying stopped eating, dragged Cui Lifei back to the bedroom, let him lie on the bed, and lifted his clothes to reveal the injury on his back.

The sutures of the wound were a bit black. Tang Ying helped him clean up the area around the wound to avoid wound infection. Fortunately, there was no sign of redness, swelling or inflammation.

But now she also has doubts about the wound. The sutures are still there, and it is impossible to judge whether the wound has healed or not.Tang Ying reached out and pressed the wound: "Does it hurt?"

Cui Lifei said truthfully: "I don't feel any pain, I just feel that you pressed it."

Tang Ying frowned: "Just wait for me."

Tang Ying took the keys and went out. She went to the pharmacy downstairs and bought disposable stitch-removing scissors, as well as cotton swabs, sterile gauze, and iodophor.

She knew that she couldn't rashly remove the stitched wound, but the wound had been there for several months. If it didn't heal for a long time, the stitches might cause the wound to become inflamed, which was even more detrimental to recovery.

Cui Lifei couldn't dissuade her, and he had no clue about his current situation. From the mirror, he could see that the condition of the wound had indeed deteriorated.Cui Lifei felt something bad in his heart, more of an inexplicable panic.

This body was plundered by Su Yu for him, but now that Su Yu is dead, he has no way to ask questions about this body, nor can he get an answer.

Tang Ying inquired on the Internet how to remove the sutures at home. Although she had never done it before, but fortunately she is quite smart and has good hands-on skills. Following the steps given on the Internet, she removed the sutures bit by bit. .

Letting Tang Ying move on his back, Cui Lifei lay motionless on the bed, waiting slightly anxiously for Tang Ying to tell him the result.

He could feel the flesh on his back being pulled slightly, but even so, he felt no pain.

After an unknown amount of time, those hands left Cui Lifei's back.Tang Ying remained silent, only the breathing of two people remained in the room.

The long silence made Cui Lifei feel very tormented. He raised his upper body slightly, turned to look at Tang Ying, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Ying's eyes were fixed on the wound. After the thread was removed, the wound barely closed together, as if it was just a black thread.

But following Cui Lifei's movements, the wound quickly opened to both sides, and it didn't heal at all, not at all.The wound that came from nowhere could be seen deep into the bone, and after it split open, not only the flesh inside was exposed, but also a little bit of white bone could be seen.

Tang Ying stretched out her hands in a panic, covered the wound, pinched the sides to try to close it again, but all was in vain, it was lying there, as long as she let go, she would crack a mocking smile at her.

"Let's go to the doctor, Li Fei, we're going now." Tang Ying said, put on her slippers and walked to the closet, and took clothes out of the closet.She seemed to be in a trance, and she kept taking out the clothes, and she ignored them as the piled up clothes slid to the ground.

Cui Lifei sensed that something was wrong with her, turned over and stood up, stopping her movements.Tang Ying's eyes were straight and out of focus. She seemed to be breathing hard and was panting slightly.

Cui Lifei nodded immediately: "Okay, let's go to the hospital and go after I get dressed."

He changed his clothes, helped Tang Ying put on her coat, and led her to the entrance.The person behind him suddenly withdrew his hand, and Cui Lifei held it firmly, not letting her break free.

Cui Lifei turned his head, Tang Ying's face was already full of tears.

"No," she said softly, "no need to go."

Tang Ying thought she might know the way to save him.

Only now did she understand why Fu Zongming told her those things.

"Do you want to live?" Tang Ying asked.

"Of course I want to!" Cui Lifei replied without thinking.After he finished speaking, he looked at Tang Ying in disbelief, "What do you mean by this? I can't survive?"

There are many cases where the wound does not heal, but it is accompanied by infection and inflammation. At least, the injured area should be felt.

"No, I'm just afraid. If the wound remains bad, what should I do?" Tang Ying tried her best to control her expression. She and Cui Lifei looked at each other, "Isn't it convenient for you to go out? Let's observe for a few more days, it really can't Let's go to the hospital again."

Cui Lifei took a deep look at her, returned to the dining table, and walked into the kitchen with a plate: "The food is cold, I'll warm it up for you."

For the next few days, Tang Ying checked the two wounds every day.

She soon discovered that the wound was expanding visibly with the naked eye, without the sutures to whitewash the peace, and even the perfunctory closure did not exist.

Cui Lifei went out to buy vegetables as usual, and when he came back to cook, he gradually became silent and lost his smile.Tang Ying really felt the dead air permeating the surroundings. In this house, there was no warmth left on the first day she came back here.

There was a metallic crisp sound from the kitchen, which seemed to be the sound of a knife falling on the marble table. Tang Ying rushed into the kitchen immediately: "What's wrong?"

"It's all right." Cui Lifei squeezed her fingers. Tang Ying couldn't see what happened to the wound. There were only two drops of blood on the cutting board. It didn't look serious. Tang Ying was relieved.

Cui Lifei put his hand under the faucet to wash it, and then exposed the wound.He cut his index finger, leaving a wound of nearly two centimeters.Although the wound wasn't big, it wasn't too small, but it only bled a little, and there wasn't even a bandage, and soon the wound didn't even have any redness.

Cui Lifei looked at his fingers silently, he stood quietly for a while, then picked up the kitchen knife again and started cutting vegetables.

Tang Ying was terrified for no reason, she stepped forward and grabbed Cui Lifei's arm: "Don't cut it, don't cut it."

Cui Lifei stubbornly put his arm back to its original position, Tang Ying reached out to snatch it, and took the knife back from his hand.

"what do you know?"

Tang Ying held the knife, but didn't hear what he said: "Ah?"

"You know what, right?" Cui Lifei turned to face her, approaching her step by step, "Why do you ask about my mother? Why do you ask me if I want to live? I think, of course I want to live, can you Give me a way out?"

Tang Ying was frightened by him, she kept backing away, the knife in her hand was tightly clenched, her lips were trembling and she couldn't speak.

"What do you know? I just want a complete family, a family that belongs to me, with a father, a mother, and a child." Cui Lifei said dumbly, "How could Su Yu be my biological mother? She is a crazy woman... …She asked me to call her mommy, and celebrated my birthday on a date that was inexplicable. I remember my birthday clearly, and I clearly remember that my parents died in a car accident.”

Tang Ying bumped into a chair in the dining room, she was shocked, and the knife in her hand fell to the ground in fright.She didn't dare to look away, Cui Lifei bent down and picked up the knife, and put it on the table under Tang Ying's horrified eyes.

"She is not important at all, what is important is me and you, I want to start a family with you. Is it difficult for me to have a happy family? Why do I have to die at such a young age?" Cui Lifei's tone became more and more fierce, Tang Ying's eyes widened, and big tears rolled down from their sockets.

"Do you really love me?" Tang Ying whispered.

Cui Lifei replied without thinking: "Of course I love you."

Tang Ying was not delighted by his words: "Auntie exchanged her own life for yours. There is no price in this world that you don't have to pay... If I tell you, if you want to live, you have to use My life is in exchange, are you willing?"

Cui Lifei did not hesitate: "I don't want to, there must be other ways."

"Then... what if it's the child in my womb?" Tang Ying smiled sadly, "Is it okay to exchange this child's life for yours?"

Cui Lifei was silent and did not speak.

Tang Ying understood what he meant, and backed away from him, her avoidance was obvious.

"While you were away, I had decided to raise my children well. That was my life, my hope for the rest of my life. With you back, my triangle became complete. Without you, I can support each other with my children " Tang Ying said with a trembling voice, "I can spend the rest of your days with you, but I will never allow my child to be sacrificed in exchange for your survival."

The shock and surprise in Cui Lifei's eyes completely faded away, and he gradually calmed down: "Don't you need me?"

Tang Ying flinched and refused to answer. Cui Lifei's eyes showed distress, and he took a step closer: "Don't do this."

Tang Ying stretched out her hand to stop him from approaching: "I'll pack up my things and buy a plane ticket later, and go back to my brother's place tomorrow."

"That's it." Cui Lifei took a step back, turned around and walked towards the kitchen, with a mechanical voice, "The dishes are not ready yet, I'll cook for you, I can't starve you and the children."

Tang Ying's voice choked in her throat as she wanted to call him, but she forcibly restrained herself and walked into the bedroom without looking back.

She didn't bring many things when she came, but Cui Lifei added a lot to her in the past few days. After packing them up one by one, she realized that the suitcase couldn't fit at all, and she took unnecessary things out again.

There was a knock on the door, and Cui Lifei said outside the door: "Yingying, let's eat, the dishes will be cold in cold weather, let's eat while they are hot."

Tang Ying hummed, and there was no sound outside the door.When she packed up her things and went outside, Cui Lifei was not in the living room, she looked towards the entrance, and his shoes were gone.

Tang Ying sat where she used to sit, opened the covered meals, and the curling heat wafted away.She picked up the chopsticks and took a mouthful of rice.

The next mouthful was sent to the mouth, a salty and bitter taste spread in the mouth, big tears fell into the white rice, leaving no trace.

"Cui Lifei, today's food is so salty."

On an abandoned high-rise building, a person is sitting on the fence on the roof.

There are no birds in the sky, and the thick clouds are pressing down, as if you can reach it with your hands.A breeze blew, and the people on the fence fell like weightless pieces of paper.

He fell to the ground, there was no blood splashed, his eyes were wide open, there was no unwillingness, no remorse, only an infinite emptiness remained.

A pair of clean leather shoes stopped not far from him, and Cui Lifei stared blankly at the body on the ground. Less than 10 minutes after it landed, it quickly decomposed into a pile of bones at a speed of hundreds or thousands of times.

He turned his head to look at the person not far away, but that strange face gave him a familiar feeling.

Su Bai looked away from the pile of bones, and said to him: "Come with me, someone is waiting for you on Huangquan Road."
