Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend

Chapter 970: Romance in the Countdown of Life

Scene: On the top of a snowy mountain in Switzerland, the sky and the earth are covered in silver. The biting cold wind whistles across the mountain, blowing up layers of snow and fog. Lu Jingchen is wearing an oxygen mask, his figure is slightly thin but still upright. He bends down with difficulty, scoops up a handful of snow with both hands, and tries to build a snowman for Jiang Ciyou. Jiang Ciyou stands aside, wrapped in a thick down jacket, her eyes full of heartache and reluctance. Looking at Lu Jingchen's actions, her eyes are slightly red.

plot:

- Jiang Ciyou felt a pang of pain in her heart when she saw Lu Jingchen's increasingly thin figure and his lips that were slightly pale due to lack of oxygen. She knew that his health was getting worse, but even so, he still tried his best to make her happy. She walked forward gently, squatted down, and rolled a snowball with Lu Jingchen, saying softly: "Jingchen, don't tire yourself too much." Lu Jingchen looked at her gently through the oxygen mask, and his voice was a little weak but firm: "As long as I can see you smile, I won't be tired." As he said, he put a slightly larger snowball on the ground as the body of the snowman, and then laboriously put another small snowball on it as the head. Seeing this, Jiang Ciyou took out two stones from his pocket, put eyes on the snowman, and broke off a small branch and inserted it on one side of the snowman as an arm. The two of them cooperated with each other in this way, creating a moment of warmth for each other in this icy and snowy world.

- After a short break, Jiang Ciyou took out a medicine bottle from her small bag, poured the anti-cancer medicine into her palm, and swallowed it with snow water. When Lu Jingchen saw this scene, a trace of surprise and heartache flashed in his eyes. He raised his hand and gently held Jiang Ciyou's wrist, his voice trembling: "When did you... why did you..." Jiang Ciyou looked at him, tears flashing in her eyes, but with a smile: "Do you think you are the only one who can hide your illness? I have long discovered the medical records you secretly hid. I just don't want to expose you and want to spend the last time with you." Lu Jingchen's eyes were red in an instant. He hugged Jiang Ciyou tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to hold her with all his strength, and his voice choked: "Silly, you should live well, and you shouldn't suffer with me." Jiang Ciyou leaned in his arms and whispered: "Without you, there is no way to live well. From the moment we met, my life has been tied to you."

- As night fell, the snow-capped mountains were shrouded in deep darkness, with only the stars twinkling in the sky, like brilliant gems scattered by the universe. Lu Jingchen and Jiang Ciyou lay on the snow, covered with thick blankets. They looked up at the starry sky, feeling each other's heartbeat and breathing. Lu Jingchen's hands were trembling. He gently picked up a strand of Jiang Ciyou's hair and wanted to braid it for her. His fingers were a little out of control due to the cold and pain, and he almost messed up her hair several times, but he still continued stubbornly. Jiang Ciyou lay quietly, eyes full of love, and said softly: "Do you remember the first time you appeared in front of me? At that time I said you were like my pet, and I just wanted to find some comfort. Unexpectedly, you became the most important person in my life." Lu Jingchen's mouth curled up into a smile, although with a bit of bitterness: "Yes, at that time, my heart and eyes were full of you, and I just wanted to make you happy. Now, I want to be your guide dog more. Even in the next life, I will be trained by you and accompany you through every journey." After braiding her hair, he gently kissed Jiang Ciyou's forehead. Jiang Ciyou reached out and held his hand, and the two of them held hands like this, as if time had stopped for them.

- After an unknown amount of time, the roar of the helicopter broke the silence. Jiang Ciyou knew that they should go down the mountain, return to the world full of noise and turmoil, and face the unknown future. She stood up, helped Lu Jingchen up, and the two of them supported each other and walked towards the helicopter. Before boarding, Jiang Ciyou accidentally saw the diagnosis that Lu Jingchen dropped on the ground. She bent down to pick it up, but found that the date on the diagnosis had been tampered with. Her hands trembled slightly, and she looked at Lu Jingchen, her eyes full of shock and questioning: "Why did you do this? Why did you move the date forward by three years?" Lu Jingchen's eyes dodged for a moment, and then looked at her calmly: "I don't want you to worry, I don't want you to watch me being devoured by the disease bit by bit, I just want you to be happy for a few more days." Jiang Ciyou's tears burst out, she threw herself into Lu Jingchen's arms, and burst into tears: "Why are you so stupid, we agreed to face it together, how can you bear it all alone." Lu Jingchen patted her back gently and comforted her: "Don't cry, my love, we still have to walk on with a smile for the rest of our lives."

- The helicopter slowly took off. Jiang Ciyou looked at the snow-capped mountains gradually receding outside the window, feeling mixed emotions. She knew that they didn't have much time left, but this romance in the countdown of life would be forever engraved in her heart. She turned her head to look at Lu Jingchen, who was resting with his eyes closed, his face tired but peaceful. Jiang Ciyou held his hand tightly and swore silently in her heart that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were in the future, she would not let go of his hand until the end of her life.

Back at the sanatorium at the foot of the mountain, Jiang Ciyou took good care of Lu Jingchen's daily life. Every morning, she would get up early and prepare a nutritious breakfast for Lu Jingchen. Watching him eat it bit by bit, her eyes were full of satisfaction. During the day, she would accompany him for a walk in the garden of the sanatorium and tell him interesting things happening in the outside world. Although Lu Jingchen's body was getting weaker and weaker, and he would be out of breath after walking a short distance, he never complained and always listened to Jiang Ciyou with a smile. In the afternoon, when the sun shone into the ward, Jiang Ciyou would lean on Lu Jingchen's bed, and the two would look through old photos together and recall those good times. From the glimpse in the bar when they first met, to the three years of carefree time spent together, to the mutual support in the face of various difficulties, every photo carries their memories, and every moment seems to be right in front of them.

- One day, Jiang Ciyou was walking with Lu Jingchen in the garden as usual. When they passed by a bush of flowers, Lu Jingchen suddenly stopped. He bent down, picked a small flower with difficulty, and handed it to Jiang Ciyou, his eyes full of attachment: "This flower is for you, just like you, beautiful and strong." Jiang Ciyou took the flower, tears blurred her eyes, she gently sniffed the fragrance of the flower, and said: "Jingchen, do you know? Every day with you, I feel extremely happy, even now, I don’t feel bitter." Lu Jingchen stroked her cheek, smiled and said: "Me too, with you by my side, I am not afraid of anything." The two stood by the bushes for a long time, bathing in the warm sunshine, as if all the troubles in the world had nothing to do with them.

- However, as time went by, Lu Jingchen's condition became more serious. He began to fall into a coma frequently. Every time he woke up and saw Jiang Ciyou guarding his bedside, a glimmer of light would flash in his eyes. Jiang Ciyou took care of him day and night. Her face was full of fatigue, but her eyes were always firm. She knew that Lu Jingchen was fighting the disease in his final battle, and she was his strongest support.

- Late one night, Lu Jingchen suddenly woke up. He looked better and his eyes were particularly bright. He motioned Jiang Ciyou to sit on the bedside, held her hand, and said, "Ciyou, I want to talk to you." Jiang Ciyou nodded quickly and moved closer to him: "I'm here, you talk." Lu Jingchen took a deep breath and said slowly: "I know I don't have much time left. I'm scared, not scared of death, but scared of leaving you. You promise me that after I'm gone, you will live well and don't be too sad. You must continue to enjoy life for me and for yourself." Jiang Ciyou had already burst into tears. She shook her head desperately: "No, I don't want you to go. You promised me that you would always be with me." Lu Jingchen gently wiped away her tears and continued: "Silly girl, birth, aging, sickness and death are common to all human beings. We already have so many beautiful memories, that's enough. You must be strong, okay?" Jiang Ciyou choked and nodded: "Okay, I promise you, but you have to promise me that in the last days, don't push me away and let me stay with you." Lu Jingchen smiled and nodded, hugging her tightly in his arms.

- In the days that followed, Jiang Ciyou still stayed with Lu Jingchen. When he was awake, she would read him his favorite book, accompany him to watch the scenery outside the window, and recall every bit of the past. When he was in a coma, she held his hand tightly and whispered their love story in his ear, hoping that he could feel her love even in the coma. Until that day, Lu Jingchen's vital signs gradually weakened, and the doctors and nurses surrounded the bed, making the last effort. Jiang Ciyou stood aside, tears kept flowing, and her heart seemed to be torn apart. She held Lu Jingchen's gradually cold hand, put it on her cheek, and whispered: "Jingchen, don't worry and go, I will live well, I will carry our memories and keep going." After that, she leaned over and kissed Lu Jingchen's lips gently, as if she was saying her final goodbye. At that moment, Lu Jingchen's hand moved slightly, as if responding to her, and then his hand slowly fell, and the electrocardiogram became a straight line...

Jiang Ciyou collapsed to the ground and burst into tears. Her cries echoed throughout the ward, as if she wanted to vent all her sorrow. The nurses came forward to help her up and wanted to comfort her, but they found that any words seemed so powerless. Jiang Ciyou looked at Lu Jingchen's quiet face, her heart full of reluctance and attachment. She knew that she had lost the most important person in her life, but she also knew that Lu Jingchen hoped that she could live well and move on bravely with their love.

After dealing with Lu Jingchen's funeral, Jiang Ciyou returned to the home where they once lived together. Every corner of the house still retained the breath of Lu Jingchen. She walked into the bedroom and saw the pajamas neatly folded on the bed. They were the pajamas that Lu Jingchen wore before his last hospitalization. She picked up the pajamas and put them on her face, and tears soaked her eyes again. She slowly walked to the window, looked at the sky outside the window, and said silently in her heart: "Jingchen, you must be well in heaven. I will start again with your love. I know that you will always be by my side to protect me."

As the days passed, Jiang Ciyou gradually came out of her grief. She returned to work and was committed to carrying forward the charity they had co-founded. She often went to poor areas to visit children in need, and seeing the innocent smiles of the children, she seemed to see herself and Lu Jingchen in the past. On every quiet night, she would still think of Lu Jingchen, their romantic time on the top of the snow-capped mountains, and everything he did for her and every word he said. Those memories, like bright stars, illuminated her way forward, allowing her to bravely go on in the days without Lu Jingchen, to pursue their unfinished dreams.
