For a short distance, she walked awkwardly, as if her legs had no strength at all, and her expression was numb and confused.
She pushed aside the crowd, and Jiang Xiao was lying with his face covered in blood, a large pool of blood seeping out from his side, and blood foaming from his mouth.
Jiang Xiao was still somewhat conscious. After recognizing Ling Lu, she slowly raised her blood-covered hand towards her.
Ling Lu knelt down beside her, her lips trembling. She wanted to tell her that she called an ambulance and asked her to hold on.
But she opened her mouth, but she couldn't say even a single word. She was shaking all over from exerting herself and her face was red, but she couldn't make any sound.
": I'm cold." Jiang Xiao's weak voice reached Ling Lu's ears, and she immediately took off her coat and covered her body.
": Do you still remember the first time we met, cough cough cough." Jiang Xiao kept coughing up blood droplets in her mouth, and Ling Lu kept shaking his head, signaling her to stop talking.
": It's the first time we meet, you too, take off your clothes to me." She said intermittently, she understood what Ling Lu meant, but she still wanted to try her best to finish these words .
As Ling Lu’s tears fell, her eyes immediately filled with tears.
Jiang Xiao looked at the sky. The sky that should have been blue turned into blood red at this moment, and she smiled with relief.
Unexpectedly, before she left this world, she would be accompanied by a friend she was not very familiar with.
"Thank you." She said this with a smile and slowly closed her eyes.
Ling Lu felt her body temperature gradually disappear, her palms became cold, and tears fell one after another.
She kept rubbing Jiang Xiao's cold palms, trying to restore her temperature.
Suddenly, her palm slipped from her hand and fell heavily to the ground, making the sound of bones hitting the ground.
Ling Lu's whole figure seemed to be suddenly frozen. In front of her eyes, a haggard and old body overlapped with the body in the Mood for Love.
The images of the withered and swollen hand and the chubby but rough hand hanging down in front of her took turns playing out in her mind.
She saw that the recommendation letter had been soaked in Jiang Xiao’s blood and turned black and red.
Ling Lu's face was stained with a layer of gray, expressionless, and tears kept pouring down.
Her eyes were unfocused, her ears were buzzing, she couldn't hear what the people around her were saying, and her brain seemed to be automatically blocked.
She knew that this was a sign of a serious illness.
The perpetrator in the car was wearing exquisite makeup and red clothes, and his eyes were locked on Ling Lu through the car window.
There was excitement and evil thoughts in her eyes...
The window was constantly being beaten, and the onlookers outside kept waving their fists and calling her to come down, but she remained unmoved at all.
Ling Lu didn't know how long she had been sitting there. She felt someone pulling her arm. She turned her head and her eyes were blurry. She couldn't see the person's face clearly and couldn't hear her voice.
She climbed up from the ground with her strength and stood there numbly until two words rang in her ears.
": Death..."
These two words kept repeating in her ears, like an endless echo in the empty canyon.
……
Ji Xuan paced back and forth anxiously at the door, the word Sichuan on his brow never loosened and tended to get deeper and deeper.
The door was opened, and the secretary led a middle-aged man with thinning hair and strong steps out of the office, followed by an unsmiling woman.
The other party greeted Ji Xuan after seeing him. Ji Xuan was so anxious that he almost jumped up, but he still responded to the other party's greetings with a decent smile.
After waiting for someone to take two steps, Ji Xuan ran into the conference room.
": Lao Gu, something happened to my sister-in-law."
Gu Zhiye happened to open Ling Lu's WeChat at this moment. He stood up suddenly and hurriedly walked towards the elevator.
Ji Xuan trotted after him, ": My sister-in-law was not injured. One of her friends was involved in a car accident."
Gu Zhiye's face turned even more ugly.
": The perpetrator was Song Ruan, Song You's sister. The identity of the person who was hit was unknown. He died on the spot, or in front of his sister-in-law. The police surrounded the scene. His sister-in-law is now downstairs. "
Ji Xuan told him all the news in the elevator.

Gu Zhi also listened silently, feeling extremely nervous.
…
Ling Lu’s eyes were hazy and glazed. When faced with the traffic police’s questions, she answered with a weak and low-pressure voice.
": Name of the deceased."
": Jiang Xiao."
": Occupation."
": Unemployed."
": Family contact information."
Shake his head.
...
A coat suddenly draped over her body, a familiar scent, a familiar voice...
": Lu Lu?"
Ling Lu turned his head blankly to look at the source of the sound. He responded, ":Yes."
Gu Zhiye's hand tightened around Ling Lu's arm.
Linglu's hands and clothes were covered in blood, and her eyes were so hollow that she seemed to have lost her soul.
Gu Zhi was also very distressed. He hugged her into his arms, stroked her head, and comforted her softly, "It's okay."
Ji Xuan saw this and called the traffic police. He went aside, explained the situation and left his contact information.
The driver drove the car from the parking lot at this moment, and Gu Zhi also picked up Ling Lu and put him in the back seat.
In the car, Gu Zhi also let her lean against him, wrapped her in his arms, and kissed the top of her head with his lips.
When the car stopped behind Qingyun Mountain Residence, Ling Lu seemed to have recovered. She went straight to the bathroom regardless, and Gu Zhi followed her closely.
The warm blood in her hands had long been cooled by the wind, and there were faint signs of discoloration due to oxidation.
Gu Zhi also hugged her from behind, held her hands and put them under the water to rinse. He turned on cold water to prevent the hot water from stimulating the smell of bleeding.
Gu Zhi also washed Ling Lu's hands carefully twice with hand sanitizer, and after confirming that there was no smell of blood, he picked up the towel on the side and wiped them dry.
Ling Lu sighed slowly, ": You go out, I want to take a bath."
": I'm at the door, if you need anything, call me, okay? ?" Gu Zhi also held Ling Lu's face.
Ling Lu weakly replied, "Okay."
He kissed her on the forehead hard, and after going out, he closed the door thoughtfully and adjusted the indoor climate. Wen Wen took out Ling Lu's change of clothes from the closet, placed them at the door, and knocked on the bathroom door.
": Lu Lu, the clothes are left at the door."
No one answered.
Gu Zhi shouted again uneasy, ": Lu Lu."
": OK." The echo in the bathroom made this answer sound ethereal.
After hearing Ling Lu's voice, he safely closed the door and waited at the door, listening intently to the sounds in the room.
About thirty minutes later, he heard the sound of the door opening. He waited for a few more minutes before knocking on the door again.
The door opened from the inside. Ling Lu's hair was wet and dripping, and his pajamas were soaked.
": I can't find a towel." She stared at the water marks on the ground with drooped eyelids.
Gu Zhi also took out towels and a hair dryer from the bathroom drawer.
Ling Lu sat on the edge of the bed, the buzzing sound of the hair dryer in her ears constantly assaulting her.
She closed her eyes and tried to block everything out with sleep.
