Jiang Tinghe sat in a wheelchair and waited for Heisang to clean up the mess. When Heisang came back, Jiang Tinghe asked coldly, "Is the body buried?"

Heisang avoided Jiang Tinghe's direct gaze and said, "It's all taken care of."

He went to push Jiang Tinghe's wheelchair, "Let's go."

Jiang Tingxia's death was like the huge stone that had been weighing on her heart was suddenly removed. Jiang Tinghe felt extremely relieved.

Back in the ward, Jiang Tinghe was alone with her stomach ache. Her legs were aching slightly. Jiang Tinghe tried to stand up, but stumbled and fell back. She had been receiving acupuncture every day these days, which aggravated her condition. Jiang Tinghe also slowly felt that her legs had lost the ability to stand.

Looking at her broken legs, Jiang Tinghe's tears rolled down her cheeks. She gritted her teeth and looked extremely hateful.

"Jiang Tingxia, we have never gotten along in our lives. Now I have to sacrifice my legs to punish you."

Thinking of the words she wrote on Jiang Tingxia's face, Jiang Tinghe laughed wildly again until her face was covered with tears. She put her hand on her shoulder. The wound from many years ago had stopped bleeding and had formed a scar, but it still hurt and tormented her day and night.

Jiang Tinghe thought about the past. Ever since she could remember, she had never had enough food or warm clothes. She had to curl up in a thatched hut where the wind blew and had to work all day and all night. When she grew up, those so-called family members sold her to an old bachelor to give birth to a son for him.

She didn't want to, so every time she got pregnant, she would find ways to have an abortion. The old bachelor had no idea what to do. Seeing that she couldn't give birth to a son, he treated her as a cash cow. Shameless, despicable, obscene and vulgar men from several nearby villages had slept in her bed.

She resisted, she struggled, she tried to escape again and again, but was caught and beaten even more severely. Several men took advantage of her and carved the word "prostitute" on her shoulder with a knife. She despaired and thought that her life was locked in this word. Fortunately, someone from the Jiang family found her and took her home.

The Jiang family is so magnificent. Jiang Tingxia, who grew up here, is fair-skinned and carefree. Whenever she sees Jiang Tingxia's clear eyes, the word on her back would hurt as if it were burning, reminding her of her unbearable past.

But she is the real eldest daughter of the Jiang family, and Jiang Tingxia's good life should have belonged to her.

Couldn't she hate Jiang Tingxia?

Finally, Jiang Tingxia died, and she became the final winner.

From now on, Jiang Tingxia will rot in the ground without knowing it, and she, Jiang Tinghe, is the granddaughter of the Shuixi tribe leader.

She returned that word to Jiang Tingxia. She would forget everything in the past and let those dark days be buried forever underground along with Jiang Tingxia.

The fate of both of them returned to normal.

……

When Jiang Tingxia woke up, he was already on the endless sea.

She still remembered the fear of Heisang stabbing her with a knife. She opened her eyes wide in horror and tried to get up suddenly, but her whole body was in pain.

Mo Yunyang heard Jiang Tingxia's voice and hurried to help her, "Tingxia, you are injured, don't move."

"Brother Yunyang," Jiang Tingxia felt a little relieved after hearing Mo Yunyang's voice, "Where am I?"

Mo Yunyang replied in a deep voice: "We are on the boat."

Jiang Tingxia looked confused. She still had a thick layer of gauze wrapped around her waist and the wound was aching slightly.

She clearly heard the conversation between Heisang and Jiang Tinghe.

"Am I not dead?"

Mo Yunyang sat next to Jiang Tingxia, "You are safe now."

Jiang Tingxia asked, "What is going on?"

Mo Yunyang explained: "After I came out of the hospital, you were gone, and I looked for you everywhere."

"When I found you, you were already seriously injured. It was Hei Sang who handed you over to me. He said his knife didn't penetrate your vital parts. He simply bandaged you and stopped the bleeding. He asked me to take you away and never show you in front of Jiang Tinghe again."

It turns out that it was made by black mulberry.

Jiang Tingxia thought of something again, and stood up anxiously and asked Mo Yunyang, "What about Li Changpu? Have you explained everything to him?"

Mo Yunyang's eyes flickered.

"Ting Xia, after you left, he became very emotionally unstable. The guards around him kicked me out, and I didn't have time to tell him anything."

The light in Jiang Tingxia's eyes suddenly went out.

"What should I do?"

"Li Changpu must have thought I abandoned him."

Mo Yunyang went to comfort the sad and crying Jiang Tingxia, "Tingxia, don't worry."

"We will be back, and it won't be too late for you to explain then."

Hearing this, Jiang Tingxia seemed to be grasping at a life-saving straw, "Yes, you are right, I will come back to him when he gets better. Even if he is angry with me for a while, I can comfort him and it will be fine."

Jiang Tingxia was talking with a faint smile on his face, "Li Changpu is not a difficult person to please."

……

He Zhihai pushed open the door of the ward and saw that the thick curtains were drawn in the room in broad daylight, and not a single light could get in. Li Changpu was lying on the bed like a dead person. He had pulled out the needle and thrown it aside, and there was a blood mark on his arm from the needle removal.

He Zhihai stood aside and patted Li Changpu's quilt.

"Acorus, I heard that you drove Xiao Xu and the others away, and you refused to eat, take medicine, or receive treatment. What's wrong with you? Tell me."

Li Changpu closed his eyes and said nothing.

He Zhihai waited for a long time without any response, and he got angry when he saw Li Changpu's look. It was useless to talk to her nicely, so he suddenly yelled.

"Li Changpu! Do you want to die?!"

He Zhihai felt distressed and angry, "Jiang Tingxia has left, she ran away, she doesn't want you anymore, who are you trying to show off to by acting like you're trying to kill yourself?"

"You can't bear to leave her. Why did you pretend to be magnanimous? If you don't sign the divorce papers, what can she do?"

He Zhihai slapped his head in anger, "I just can't understand it. Jiang Tingxia is the only woman in this world. If she's gone, you won't live!"

Li Changpu finally reacted, his brows twisted in pain.

"Li Changpu, I'm leaving."

"Li Changpu, what else can you give me!"

These words made him feel hopeless and he had lost all hope.

Without Jiang Tingxia, he would have died in the dark torture and on the hopeless battlefield. At the beginning, he survived with the desire to see Jiang Tingxia again, but now, he hopes to die in that sultry rainforest.

Without her, he became a useless man again, unable to serve in the army anymore. What was the point of living?

He Zhihai grabbed Li Changpu by the collar, and Xiao Xu was frightened and tried to stop him, "Commander, Captain Li is still a patient, you can't pull him like this."

"Get out of the way," He Zhihai pushed Xiao Xu away, grabbed Li Changpu's hospital gown and lifted her up.

"You want to die, don't you?"

He Zhihai pointed at Li Changpu's forehead and said, "Go to hell! I don't care about you. You don't have the bones of a soldier, you don't have the blood of a soldier, you coward, you deserter, I, He Zhihai, don't have a soldier as useless as you under my command."

Coward! Deserter!

Li Changpu would rather die than be given such a name. He had never been afraid of fighting in his life. All his wounds were in the front. He never ran back when facing the enemy.

"I'm not!" Li Changpu finally opened his eyes and retorted to He Zhihai, "I'm not a coward, nor a deserter."

When He Zhihai saw that Li Changpu finally reacted, his tense expression relaxed, "Then why are you so afraid of this desperate act?"

His eyes were red, and he yelled at He Zhihai, "I have nothing left!"

He Zhihai didn't tolerate Li Changpu either, "Are you a man? Are you a real man?"

"What's the point of dying? Living well and making a difference is the real skill!"

"Li Changpu, if you are a man, you should stand up for me. Don't let others laugh at you. Let those who abandoned you see you and regret it."
