Chapter 147 Choice
The man, Fang Ping, spoke again with some anger: "What about us? You don't plan to marry me either? Do you know how much pressure I'm under? I've been working so hard to get married soon! My family keeps pushing me, and I have no choice but to give in! And you? You've been putting off your work and your life for a dying woman who's been in a vegetative state for three years! You say you shouldn't touch her money, you can't, but don't the time, energy, and effort you've put into it over the past three years make you worthy of the last of her remaining money?"
"Look for yourself. Even Miss Lan's family doesn't care about her. Her parents only care about asking you for Miss Lan's remaining property, and they occupied Miss Lan's house without thinking twice. Her brother didn't even ask her a word, let alone come to see her. It's possible he's going to use Miss Lan's house to get married! Yuyan, I'm telling you one last thing. You don't have to use Miss Lan's money, but you have to get your life back to normal. If we don't have any results by the end of this year, then... we have no choice but to break up!"
Fang Ping turned and stormed out of the room. Yuyan stood blankly by the bed, staring blankly at the woman lying there for a moment. "Should I really give up?"
Yuyan also turned and left the ward.
Lan Qingwu walked lightly to the bedside and stared at the thin and frail person with wide eyes. That was - herself, herself after the car accident. It turned out that only three years had passed in this world, and she had been a vegetable for three years.
Lan Qingwu seemed to have sensed something. She looked towards the corner of the bed and saw a disappearing shadow squatting there alone and helpless. She hugged her knees tightly with her hands and did not move at all.
Lan Qingwu walked forward in shock, and the light and shadow also raised its head as if sensing something, revealing a face that was exactly the same as Lan Qingwu's.
Lan Qingwu couldn't believe it: "It turns out that one of my souls has been in this world all along, guarding my original body! No wonder Master Zhiyan said that I was missing a soul."
Lan Qingwu squatted down and spoke softly, "So you've been guarding my body here all by yourself for the past three years. Can you... hear me?"
The light and shadow raised his head, nodded slowly, and then shook his head.
Lan Qingwu looked at the vague shadow and asked, "Are you...about to disappear?"
The light and shadow nodded.
At this moment, there was a noise at the door of the ward.
Lan Qingwu stood up and walked out. She passed through the wall directly, and the light and shadow followed her through the wall.
At the door of the ward, a middle-aged woman was yelling at Yuyan, "You took my daughter's money, saying you were giving it to her, but who knows what you did with it? We are her parents, and all her property should be given to us! Humph! After all these years, I finally caught you! Hurry and give me the money!"
Yuyan's pretty face darkened: "Okay! Today I will settle the score with you!"
Fang Ping also returned and sneered at the scene before him. "Auntie, your daughter has been in the intensive care unit for over three years. We can go see the attending physician. All the bills for those three years are here. Let's see how much money you, as a mother, have spent on your daughter! After we've calculated the bill, you should pay what you owe! I'll return all your daughter's credit cards to you! Let's go! Let's go see the attending physician!"
The middle-aged woman who claimed to be Lan Qingwu's mother hesitated and grumbled, "What's the point of settling scores? Wait, I'll go get my husband!"
The middle-aged woman squeezed through the crowd and walked away quickly.
Yuyan was silent for a few moments, then turned and walked towards the attending physician's office. Fangping followed her out.
Lan Qingwu took a few more steps, but found that she couldn't leave the ward too far, so she had no choice but to retreat back into the ward.
A moment later, Yuyan returned to the ward. She stood by the bed, staring blankly at Lan Qingwu lying there, muttering, "I'm sorry, I can't hold on any longer. The attending doctor said you'll never wake up again. Now we're just stalling for time. Besides, your card is almost empty, with only a few hundred thousand left. I... promised Fang Ping... I'm sorry..."
Yuyan left the ward, and Lan Qingwu watched everything silently.
In this world, her best friend and agent also gave up on her, not to mention her parents and brother. Her mother, who was only a few steps away, didn't even come into the ward to see her.
Another doctor in a white coat entered the ward. He removed the ventilator from the patient on the bed and shut down all the other instruments. Lan Qingwu approached, wanting to reach out and touch his other self, but his hand passed through and could not reach out. Lan Qingwu then realized that his other self on the bed was no longer human. She lay there emaciated, her face pale and lifeless. Lan Qingwu suddenly realized that his other self was beyond saving.
Lan Qingwu looked at the increasingly weak light and shadow: "When you completely dissipate, this body will completely stop breathing, right?"
The light and shadow nodded.
"Then what do you do?"
Guangying lowered his head at first, then raised it and stared at Lan Qingwu.
Lan Qingwu said softly: "Then come with me!"
The doctor had already called someone to prepare to deal with the person on the bed. Lan Qingwu followed his other self and watched with his own eyes as his other self entered the morgue.
The next day, Fang Ping and Yuyan brought a few people, and after some twists and turns, Lan Qingwu witnessed another version of himself entering the funeral home and then being burned to ashes.
The firelight shone into Lan Qingwu's eyes, and Lan Qingwu watched with his own eyes as the last connection between himself and this world turned to ashes.
At this moment, the light and shadow involuntarily floated towards Lan Qingwu and instantly sank into Lan Qingwu's soul. Lan Qingwu hurriedly closed her eyes. She felt that the missing part of her was finally complete. The feeling was extremely mysterious, and she felt indescribably comfortable and calm in the depths of her soul.
The next moment, another ball of white light enveloped her, and Lan Qingwu disappeared in the funeral home.
Lan Qingwu found herself back in the white passage. She stood there for a long time, motionless. She could no longer return to her original world. Was she going back to the Dasheng Dynasty?
Lan Qingwu thought of her parents and relatives in the Dasheng Dynasty, and then of... Emperor Shenwu. Everyone she cared about was there, but when she thought about going back, back to that palace full of conspiracies and intrigues, why was she so hesitant? How should she choose?
Lan Qingwu walked in the white light at a loss. She didn't know how long she had walked. The white passage had no end and no direction. She could only keep walking and walking...
Lan Qingwu finally stopped and slowly sat down by the edge of the passage, hugging her knees with both hands. She said softly, "Why can't I get out?"
Is she going to stay here forever? Her father, mother, grandfather, Ruhan, Ruping... will definitely be sad! What about that person?
"Will you forget me? Will you... fall in love with someone else?"
After all, that person was the emperor of the Dasheng Dynasty.
