There were too many coincidences in between. At the start, she had misled Han Ruchu purely because she didn't want to marry Xu Jiamu.

She had never expected so many consequences though.

Subsequently, she thought that Qiao Anhao had fallen for Xu Jiamu and had desperately tried to keep Lu Jinnian away.

At that time, she thought that she was doing Qiao Anhao a favor, but in reality, she wasn't.

At the start it was just a simple mistake, but it escalated to a hideous crime.

Even she wasn't able to forgive herself, so how could she be able to garner enough courage to ask for forgiveness?

"Qiao Qiao, you don't have to be sad, even if something were to happen today, it’s an accident...and I owe it to you."

"No..." Qiao Anhao forced back her tears. "Nothing will happen to you, even if you really did me wrong, I know that you definitely feel guilty about it. Ever since we were young, you have been there to protect me, every time someone bullied me in school, you would stand up for me... So you must be well again, you need to continue to protect me..."

Some mistakes were not done on purpose.

Some mistakes weren't.

Even though Qiao Anxia had indeed done bad things, Qiao Anhao was certain that deep inside, her cousin had always treated her as her own sister.

Or she would never have shielded her from the dagger.

Protecting someone from a dagger can potentially require one’s life... Only when someone believes you to be kin would they go to such an extent.

Qiao Anhao burst into tears. She couldn't help lifting her head to glance at Lu Jinnian and asking helplessly, "Where's the ambulance? Why isn't it here yet? Where's the ambulance?"

Lu Jinnian knelt down, bringing Qiao Anhao into his arms , comforting her. Using his eyes, he signaled his assistant. The man hurriedly took his phone to rush the ambulance.

Before Qiao Anxia had apologized, there was a huge burden on her chest, but now, she was finally able to relax, energy seeping away from her body bit by bit, her senses starting to fade.

Her other hand was embraced by a familiar touch, a steady stream of warmth.

When she had seen his car in the underground car park, she didn't even dare to come up, and now, she still didn't have enough courage to look at him.

Qiao Anxia's breathing weakened. She felt the warmth leaving her body, and she was no longer able to think clearly. Very slowly, she shifted her gaze towards Cheng Yang without a conscious thought. His eyes were red and swollen.

He was crying for her... Did that mean that he still couldn't let go of her?

Qiao Anxia couldn't help squinting at him. She opened her mouth slightly and struggled to force out "Cheng Yang..."

Even though it was soft, he was still able to decipher what she was saying.

Cheng Yang lowered his head, leaning his ear over to her mouth. "I'm sorry, I know where I was wrong.

"I have already changed the name in my phone....

"And... even though we’ve known each other for such a long time, I’ve never seriously told you before but I like you."

Qiao Anxia hesitated before continuing. "I don't just like you, I love you."
