34 -34 Xiaoxue Died
Lin Xinlan thought that it might be seeing her unwell that made the dog also feel down.
As she stepped out of the hospital, ready to hail a taxi, Xiaoxue suddenly bit her hand.
Lin Xinlan, in pain, quickly let go, and Xiaoxue fell to the ground, then ran off towards the middle of the road.
“Xiaoxue, come back!” Lin Xinlan, enduring the pain in her hand, hurried after Xiaoxue.
There were so many vehicles on the road, and Lin Xinlan, worried that Xiaoxue would get hit by a car, became even more anxious and dashed after the dog, not paying attention to the traffic.
Suddenly a car came speeding towards her and she let out a scream, but thankfully the car stopped in time, and no accident occurred.
“Are you trying to get yourself killed?” the driver yelled, sticking his head out.
“I’m sorry,” Lin Xinlan said apologetically and then quickly resumed chasing Xiaoxue.
“Xiaoxue, come back, where are you going?!”
Xiaoxue seemed particularly agitated, madly scampering about and barking loudly.
Lin Xinlan didn’t understand what was wrong with it and wondered if it might have been frightened by the traffic on the road.
“Xiaoxue!” Just when she was about to catch it, Xiaoxue suddenly yelped and rolled on the ground, ending up right under the wheels of a moving car.
Lin Xinlan stared at the scene in front of her, feeling as if all the blood in her body had frozen.
Many cars stopped, and a crowd of onlookers gathered.
Looking at the bloodstain on the ground, Lin Xinlan’s heart shivered with cold.
How had things turned out this way?
Xiaoxue was dead, where could she find another dog identical to Xiaoxue to give to Du Ruoxin?
——
As the sky gradually darkened, Lin Xinlan dragged her weary body back to the villa.
Rong Shaoze, sitting in the living room, saw her and asked coldly, “Where have you been?
Fooling around for so long!”
Lin Xinlan walked over and sat down opposite him, her face showing signs of exhaustion and helplessness.
She wiped her face with her hand, took a deep breath, and looked at Rong Shaoze.
Rong Shaoze slightly raised his brows, naturally sensing she had something on her mind.
“Xiaoxue is dead.” Without thinking of concealing the truth, she spoke directly.
Rong Shaoze was taken aback for a moment, then asked in disbelief, “What did you say?”
“Xiaoxue is dead.
I was taking it across the road when it suddenly jumped out and ran.
I couldn’t catch up, and then it was hit by a car.
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to do it.”
Rong Shaoze stood up abruptly, his face dark with anger, pointing at Lin Xinlan furiously, but he didn’t know what to say to her.
After a moment of thought, he said with suppressed rage, “Do you know that was Ruoxin’s favorite pet!
She was like Ruoxin’s child, and you failed to take care of it!
Lin Xinlan, you’re the reason Ruoxin lies in the hospital unable to wake up, and now you’ve killed Xiaoxue too.
Are you her nemesis, purposely here to harm her?”
Lin Xinlan glanced at him wearily, remained silent.
What could she say?
Since it was her fault, she had no excuse to offer.
“I’m very sorry about Xiaoxue, but I think there was something wrong with its health—it was acting a bit off…”
“Xiaoxue was in perfect health!
It was always under professional care, saw a pet doctor every week, and was healthier than a human.
What could have possibly gone wrong with it?
Don’t make excuses for your mistakes, Lin Xinlan, you did wrong, and that’s that!
If not for you, Ruoxin wouldn’t be lying in the hospital unconscious.
This is all your fault!”
Rong Shaoze spoke too harshly in his anger.
Lin Xinlan took a deep breath, stood up to face him, her chest heaving slightly.
Rong Shaoze glared at her, the cold light flickering in his narrow phoenix eyes.
After a few seconds of eye contact, Lin Xinlan turned and went upstairs without saying a word.
Rong Shaoze had thought she would argue back, would create a scene with him, but she left without uttering a single word.
