Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 Reborn after courting death

Xia Anan, even if you die, don't think about leaving me!"The angry voice sounded like ice from hell, with a bone-chilling coldness that hit her eardrums.Her chaotic mind gradually became clear.Countless jumbled noises began to hum in her ears as if suddenly connected to a power source."...The wound is complicated, and the nerves and tendons are also damaged It will take a long time to sew up. Should we use anesthesia?""No need. If you dare to cut your wrist, don't be afraid of pain!"The cold voice sounded again, with some anger and shame.Xia Anan frowned. She wanted to say she was afraid of pain, but she couldn't open her mouth.A few minutes later, a sharp pain shot straight to her brain from her wrist.Her heavy eyelids suddenly lifted: "No!"Her gaze focused on a clearly outlined, cold face, with beautiful peach blossom eyes full of bloodshot veins and full of anger.Ling Nanchen?Her mind suddenly became confused. Didn't he die?He died in front of her, when the fire was about to burn her.Ignoring his already broken legs, he crawled to her and held her in his arms.He said, "Anan, don't be afraid. Whether it's heaven or hell, I'll be with you.""Then accompany her to die!" ChuLener's voice, full of resentment, came in from outside the fire.Then a bucket of gasoline was poured in, and the flames burned him.She didn't even have time to say "I'm sorry," and he was gone.Soon after, the raging fire swept through, destroying everything.... Another wave of pain hit her, sharp and real!The pain made her gasp for air, and her gaze instinctively moved to the source of the pain. On her left wrist was a deep wound that exposed the bone. The skin was turned out, the tendons and veins were broken, and there were white porcelain fragments embedded in the wound...It was shocking, yet familiar!Wasn't this the wound she had inflicted on herself when she was caught eloping and wanted to prove that she would rather die than be with Ling Nanchen?Why did it suddenly appear so vividly in front of her after so long?Could it be...rebirth?Before the feeling of joy could surface the doctor's long tweezers clamped down on another fragment, and her body convulsed in pain.Tiny beads of sweat broke out of every pore, competing to come out first."Does it hurt?"Ling Nanchen's voice squeezed out through his teeth, filled with bone-chilling coldness and hatred.Xia An'an shuddered, and her gaze quickly turned to his face.His jet-black hair was combed back, revealing his full and smooth forehead. His straight nose added a few European-style handsomeness to his already three-dimensional features. His rosy lips carried a hint of indifference and distance, but also added a touch of dignified nobility to him.However, his peach blossom eyes, which should have been gentle and affectionate, were now bloodshot, showing that he was already furious to the extreme."Speak!"The temperature dropped suddenly, and Xia An'an shuddered. Her wandering thoughts instantly returned to the present.In her past life, Ling Nanchen had showered her with love and affection. No matter how badly she behaved, he never said a word and silently cleaned up her messes. It seemed that as long as she was willing to stay by his side, she could do whatever she wanted.However, she was deceived by Chu Linger's words and mistook his love as an obsession, seeing him as a possessive demon king.In order to escape from him, she deceived him, joined forces with his opponents, and calculated against him step by step, ultimately causing him to fall into a trap set by his enemies, losing his company and even his life.. Guilt piled up in her heart, and finally landed on her right fingertips, timidly reaching out to him and grabbing his sleeve.The three words that were never spoken in her past life finally had a chance to be said: "I'm sorry!"Please forgive my selfishness and foolishness, please forgive every bit of trouble and harm I have caused you!I'm sorry, really sorry!Ling Nanchen seemed surprised by her sudden apology, slightly stunned, his gaze suspiciously falling on her white fingers clutching his sleeve for several seconds before he spoke:"You couldn't get your way with a tough approach, so you're trying a soft one now?"Xia An'an's heart ached, shaking her head frantically. "No, that's not it. I really hope you can forgive me.""Forgive you? So you can have a chance to elope with someone else?""No, there is no one else, and there won't be any elopement again!"She had planned to elope with Song Yu, thinking that their love was the real thing. However, it turned out that what she thought was love was just a carefully planned scheme.Ling Nanchen's probing gaze swept over her face for a long time, and a cold smile suddenly appeared on his lips. "Xia An'an, do you think I will still believe you?"Her expression froze instantly.She was the one who eloped, who cut her wrist. Even without the later betrayals and schemes, she had lost all credibility in his eyes long ago.Ling Nanchen reached out and forcibly pried her fingers, which were clutching his sleeve, away from his wrist and pulled back his sleeve.Her heart suddenly ached. She reached out without thinking and grabbed his fingers even harder. "Brother Chen!"She hadn't called him that in a long time. Since her mother had forced her to be with him, every time she saw him, she attacked him with a bitter and resentful attitude, using his full name and surname, gritting her teeth!As expected, he cared.He suddenly froze in place, as if he had been struck by a paralysis point.Xia An'an's heart sank again. She sniffled and held his fingers tighter, apologizing sincerely again. "I'm sorry."He sneered slightly, his gaze shifting to her bloody wound. "Does it hurt?"Xia An'an nodded pitifully, then shook her head quickly. She didn't want him to think that she was only apologizing because she was in pain.His expression changed several times, but in the end, he softened and waved his hand at the doctor. "Anesthetic!"The doctor was overjoyed and immediately rushed out to call the anesthesiologist.As the anesthesia took effect and she drifted off, she stubbornly clung to his fingers, afraid that this was all a dream and that she would wake up still in the fire, with him gone. With the anesthesia, the doctor's speed in treating her wound noticeably increased.As he bent over to suture her nerves, the doctor carefully glanced at Ling Nanchen. "Young Master Ling, could you please move aside? You're blocking my view."Ling Nanchen made a sound of agreement and just as he was about to move, his fingers suddenly tightened and the little figure on the bed anxiously called out, "Don't go!"The frost in his eyes gradually began to melt at these words.Ling Nanchen shifted to the side and asked, "Is it still blocking now?"The doctor remained silent for a moment before replying, "No, it's not blocking anymore."After a few minutes, Ling Nanchen suddenly spoke up, "When under general anesthesia, do people still have consciousness?""Generally, no, but it's not completely certain," the doctor explained dutifully. "Some people have a lower tolerance for anesthesia, so even under general anesthesia, it's possible for them to remain conscious. Based on Miss Xia's reaction, she should be conscious
