Chapter 387: If I Were Not Her Brother
"How about the others? Are they all okay?"
"Everyone else is fine except you." Yan Sijue’s voice was still hoarse, "Qiao Yebai is seriously injured, but it’s nothing major. Although he broke two fingers, it doesn’t affect his ability to strategize."
Mu Yiliang nodded gently, after a long silence, she finally said, "Ye Moran is dead, isn’t he?"
Yan Sijue trembled slightly, "Yes, he’s dead. I brought his body back. I thought you might want to give him a funeral..."
Mu Yiliang softly responded, "Hmm." "Sijue, I’m sorry... I’m sorry, I didn’t save the baby... Blame me, you must blame me, right?"
Yan Sijue clenched his fists, slowly saying, "I don’t blame you. It’s my fault. I didn’t protect you well enough."
"I knew the baby’s condition wasn’t good. The doctor warned me before I left, but I still came." She let out a bitter smile, "I was afraid you’d stop me, didn’t even dare to tell you..."
"Don’t say anymore..." The man seemed to be holding back something, withdrew his arm, and helped her lie down, "I’ll have the doctor come to check on you."
He turned and left the room.
While Mu Yiliang was in a coma, he stayed by her side for two days and nights, but when she awoke, he didn’t know how to face her.
He could accept her miscarriage, but what the doctor just said made him hate himself for getting her pregnant!
However, what pained him was that she considered others more important than herself!
The words Xiao Qi had spoken to him were still vivid in his mind, and Yan Sijue knew he shouldn’t blame her, yet he still couldn’t let go.
Before they left, he of course had Mu Yiliang wear a bulletproof vest, but that didn’t guarantee perfect safety. At the time, if it weren’t for Ye Moran shielding her, the outcome could have been very different.
When she insisted on coming personally, had she already decided to give up the baby? Did she think about the danger she might face? Or, did she consider what he would do if anything happened to her?
Such questions kept haunting his mind, torturing him to the brink of madness!
He couldn’t blame her; he could only blame himself! It was because he wasn’t strong enough, because of his negligence, that she ended up in such a perilous situation!
He thought, he ultimately couldn’t let go so easily. If he could, he would still wish to completely shield her under his wings, not letting her face any storms anymore.
If this could spare her from all harm and worries, he would rather do so even if she ended up hating him! It was better than seeing her hurt over and over again!
Without realizing it, Yan Sijue had walked to the end of the hallway.
Qiao Yebai saw him and walked over.
"I heard Yiliang has woken up. Xiao Qi has already gone over." Qiao Yebai looked at him, "Why did you leave? You know she needs you the most right now."
Yan Sijue shot him a cold glance and turned to leave.
"I know you probably hate me very much." Qiao Yebai smiled self-mockingly, "Don’t worry, I’ll keep my distance from her from now on. Whatever happens to me, it won’t involve her anymore."
Yan Sijue let out a cold laugh, "You’re her brother, that boundary can never be drawn!"
Qiao Yebai smiled faintly, "If I weren’t her brother, then she’d have no reason to do anything for me ever again."
Yan Sijue was taken aback, narrowing his eyes to scrutinize him, "Are you kidding?"
