I am reborn and refuse to be a sickly rich woman

Chapter 223: Fated redemption, the changed little yandere.

Icy cold lake water.

Xu Musen was holding the man, his strength was almost exhausted, just a little bit short...

"dad!!"

On the ice, the little girl was covered in icy water. Her face had turned pale from the cold and her small body couldn't stop shaking.

Tears hung on her face like ice beads. Yao Mingyue looked at her. This scene seemed to be her own reflection six years ago.

Watching her loved ones go through life and death, the pain is still like a knife in her heart...

As she watched this scene, she felt her heart tremble. Six years ago, she was unable to wait for her father to celebrate her twelfth birthday.

Now...she looked at the little girl crying heart-wrenchingly, as if she was seeing a familiar tragedy again.

This is the pain that Yao Mingyue is most reluctant to recall in her heart, and it is also the pain she has been avoiding.

At this moment, Yao Mingyue felt sore all over, and that feeling of powerlessness seemed to envelope her whole body again.

It was like a demon in her heart. No matter how proud and strong-willed Yao Mingyue was, at this moment, she was as fragile as this little girl.

"Wow..."

Xu Musen held the swimming ring, grabbed the man, and swam upwards with his last bit of strength.

Yao Mingyue's gaze instantly turned to the lake again. Xu Musen was holding the swimming ring, but he felt a little weak. He raised his head with all his strength and took a deep breath of air.

But now the air was as cold as needles piercing his lungs. Xu Musen gritted his teeth and his face turned terrifyingly pale.

Just like... my father who left me six years ago.

Yao Mingyue has already lost one of the two most important men in her life. This time, she can't just stand by and watch it happen again!
At this moment, Yao Mingyue took off her down jacket, wrapped her sleeves around the guardrail next to her, and jumped down.

Xu Musen didn't expect this either.

Just when he felt a little exhausted, Yao Mingyue actually jumped down. She was afraid of the cold.

The freezing cold lake water was like silver needles piercing into every part of my pores. The pain was indescribable.

Yao Mingyue hugged Xu Musen's waist. She was trembling all over, but she held Xu Musen tightly and used her own strength to swim towards the ice.

Her hands grabbed the ice, and the sharp ice was like a sword. The girl's white fingertips were pierced and bright red blood flowed out.

But she could no longer remember the pain, and all she wanted at this moment was to rescue Xu Musen.

Or...we'd rather die together!
Xu Musen became even more anxious. How could this girl jump down? However, the clothes tied around Yao Mingyue's body did save him a lot of effort. He bit the tip of his tongue and forced out some strength.

At this moment, on the ice, the woman immediately grabbed the clothes wrapped around Yao Mingyue and pulled her onto the ice with all her strength.

Some people nearby also heard the noise and came to help immediately.

"Come on! Let's pull together!"

The two men worked together. Xu Musen held the man tightly, with one hand also holding Yao Mingyue's waist. With the help of the force from above, they finally floated to the surface.

“Come and save them!”

Tourists from all around came over and dragged the unconscious man ashore.

Xu Musen held Yao Mingyue, who was also a little dazed from the cold, and rolled onto the ice with all his might.

He took a deep breath and felt his limbs become stiff, but he had no time to relax. He quickly stood up and looked at Yao Mingyue, who was already in a daze in his arms.

"Mingyue!"

Xu Musen patted her cheek gently.

"Musen..."

Yao Mingyue was trembling with cold at the moment, and her skin had lost its color. However, looking at Xu Musen's anxious expression, Yao Mingyue began to smile.

She reached out her cut hand and gently stroked Xu Musen's cheek: "I'm glad you're okay..."

As she spoke, she looked to the side. The man who was rescued was still unconscious, but he had already spit out a few mouthfuls of water and his complexion was quickly improving.

“Dad, Dad!!”

The little girl threw herself beside her father, watching his complexion gradually getting better. She wiped her tears, hope reappeared in her eyes, and she hugged her mother while crying.

Looking at this scene, Yao Mingyue vaguely saw her former self’s shadow.

If...if Dad had been sent to the hospital in time when the car accident happened, would...everything would be different.

"very nice……"

Yao Mingyue had a weak and complicated smile on her lips. At this moment, she was not only saving this little girl, but also the regretful and desperate self she was six years ago.

"How silly... Stop talking, I'll take you to see a doctor!"

Xu Musen picked her up. She was only wearing socks on her feet, which were already soaked, as if they would stick to the ice if she stood on it for a while longer.

"Do you need help?" People around came over and asked with concern.

"It's okay, I'll do it myself."

Xu Musen hugged Yao Mingyue tightly, and remembered the look in Yao Mingyue's eyes when she jumped down without hesitation just now.

Yao Mingyue is a person with a twisted personality, but behind the twisted appearance is her heart that has never forgotten her love for Xu Musen.

It is true that Yao Mingyue has a strong desire for control, but it is also true that she loves him, even to the point of risking her life for him...

Xu Musen looked at her trembling all over and curled up in his arms, just like that night six years ago.

That's how she cried until she fell asleep in Xu Musen's arms.

The defenses in Xu Musen's heart that were originally unbreakable seemed to begin to break a little bit because of today's cold weather...

He hugged Yao Mingyue tightly and ran all the way to the clinic next to the hotel.

The doctor came back quickly to check on her and directly arranged a single room for her.

"It's okay, he's just too weak and has a little hypothermia. Go prepare a new set of clothes and a hot towel for the patient to change into."

Xu Musen didn't dare to delay, he ran back to the hotel, took out new clothes from Yao Mingyue's suitcase, and ran over.

The doctor had prepared hot water and hot towels and handed them to Xu Musen.

"Help the patient change her clothes and wipe her body with a hot towel. I'll make some medicine soup."

The doctor explained, and suddenly saw Xu Musen was also wet: "Why didn't you change your clothes?"

"Not in time. I'm out of the way."

Xu Musen shook his head. To be honest, his head hurt a little, but he still took the basin of water and the hot towel.

The doctor couldn't help but nod his head as he watched them. It was rare to see such a good relationship.

"There is a hospital gown in the closet in the room. Please change into it first. I will make you a dose of medicine soup."

"Thank you doctor."

Xu Musen nodded and walked into the ward.

Yao Mingyue lay on the hospital bed with a pale face. She was afraid of cold and now her whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

Xu Musen walked over and gently placed the hot towel on her forehead.

Looking at her wet clothes, Xu Musen did not hesitate at all. As for whether he would be responsible or not, he would talk about it later.

He pulled the curtain and gently began to help Yao Mingyue take off her clothes. The girl's skin was originally fair and delicate, but now it was pale, as if she had no blood.

After taking off his clothes, Xu Musen looked at the girl's underwear. He paused for just a moment.

If the cold lake water keeps getting wet on your body, especially for girls, you might get sick.

Xu Musen reached out and helped her take it off.

The girl's body is like the most carefully and perfectly carved work of art by God, without even a single flaw.

But Xu Musen had no mood to appreciate it at the moment. Yao Mingyue was lying on the bed, shivering from the cold. Xu Musen took out clothes and quickly changed them for her.

He also helped her wipe the water stains on her hair.

He took a hot towel and began to wipe her body gently. Slowly, her skin began to regain its color.

After a while, a young nurse came over with disinfectant and saw Xu Musen, who was all wet, still helping his girlfriend wipe her body carefully.

She had just heard that an accident occurred at the skating rink, a father and daughter fell into the water, and a young couple bravely rescued them.

It seems to be the couple in front of them. She sighed emotionally and said to Xu Musen: "You should also change your clothes. I will help the patient treat the wound."

Xu Musen saw that Yao Mingyue's right hand was scratched by several ice cubes. The wounds were not deep, but they were particularly obvious on her fair hand.

Xu Musen did not delay the nurse from applying medicine and disinfecting her.

He turned around, went behind the curtain, took out the hospital gown from the closet, took off his wet and cold clothes, and put on the hospital gown.

At this moment, on the hospital bed, Yao Mingyue felt the pain of her palm being stung by disinfectant. She coughed, her mind was in a mess. She couldn't remember what happened to her, but she still thought of him in her mind: "Mu Sen..."

Xu Musen hurried over and stood in front of the bed. Yao Mingyue's vision was still unclear, so she raised her left hand and groped around nervously.

Xu Musen gently held her left hand. Her hand was so terribly cold that it felt as if her bones were frozen.

Xu Musen gently held her hands in his palms and rubbed them slowly, then put them to his mouth and blew gently to warm them.

"I am here."

Xu Musen approached her and spoke slowly.

Yao Mingyue's vision finally became clear. At first glance, she saw the person she wanted to see the most. When she saw Xu Musen wearing a hospital gown, her weak face subconsciously became flustered.

"You...are you sick?"

"You are the one who is sick."

Xu Musen looked at her panicked appearance, not knowing what to feel for a moment. He reached out and gently touched her forehead with one hand.

Still a little hot.

"The wound has been treated. I'll bring you some medicine later. You guys can rest for a while."

The young nurse put away the disinfectants and looked at the young couple. She was very envious and admired that they were still able to risk their lives to save others in this day and age and that they still had such a good relationship.

She couldn't help but say, "He was taking care of you with wet clothes just now, so I asked him to change into dry clothes temporarily. Don't get too excited and take your time to recover."

After saying that, she left tactfully.

In the ward.

The two people looked at each other silently, feeling as if they had survived a disaster.

After Yao Mingyue knew that he was fine, she seemed to calm down a little and she looked at Xu Musen without blinking.

Those weak phoenix eyes were filled with countless emotions. She raised her injured right hand and gently waved at Xu Musen, as if she wanted to say something to him.

Xu Musen lowered his head and slowly moved in front of her.

"Snapped!"

But the next moment, Yao Mingyue hit Xu Musen with her injured hand, but it didn't hurt, or rather, it was far less painful than the tearing of the wound on her hand.

"You...are you confused by the freezing of your brain?"

Xu Musen was stunned by the slap.

"You're confused!"

Yao Mingyue couldn't help but get excited again. She looked at Xu Musen and said, "You bastard! Why are you so desperate to save others? Do you know that I..."

As Yao Mingyue spoke, she couldn't help but well up in tears. At that moment just now, she almost thought that she had lost him again.

Xu Musen was silent at this moment. He was not angry. He even held her right hand gently with some heartache.

"Because that little girl is too much like you six years ago... I don't want to see something like this happen again."

Xu Musen gently stroked her cold cheek with his other hand. Although Yao Mingyue had a strong possessiveness, she had never thought of hurting him. Even in her previous life, she had never hit him.

But this time, she slapped Xu Musen.

The reason for beating him was not out of anger, but out of heartache and fear for him.

Xu Musen's words made Yao Mingyue's pupils shrink slightly, and her pupils were so small that they could only accommodate the figure of Xu Musen.

Six years ago, they were powerless and could only wait for God's will.

But now, they finally have the ability to change something, and he saved more than just the little girl's family.

It was also six years ago, when I was helpless...

Xu Musen knew everything. He sat by the bed and held her cold left hand again. He smiled after being slapped on the cheek: "Aren't you the same?"

Yao Mingyue bit her lip. Yes, she was the same.

When she saw the little girl squatting on the ice and crying for her father, she really saw herself six years ago.

The person who needs to be rescued is the desperate self who was there on that cold and rainy night six years ago.

Tears flashed in the corners of her eyes. She couldn't describe the emotions in her heart. When she saw the little girl crying, she felt limp all over. A huge feeling of powerlessness swept over her body.

It was as if it was just six years ago. No matter how miserably she cried or how devoutly she prayed in the operating room, fate was never on her side.

Humans finally had no way to go against Heaven. From that moment on, a large part of her heart collapsed, and she began to frantically search for someone who could give her a sense of security.

And Xu Musen is the faint light in her despair.

But she was afraid that one day this light would disappear.

Therefore, she cherishes it more, becomes more stubborn, and becomes more paranoid...

However, when she saw Xu Musen struggling in the water, the flame in her heart seemed to be extinguished.

At this moment she finally realized something.

If you want the flame to burn brighter, you don’t have to protect it from the wind, but you have to turn yourself into firewood and burn brighter with it…

After all, apart from Xu Musen, she had nothing to lose, so naturally she had nothing to be afraid of.

When it comes to life, Yao Mingyue wants him to survive even more.

She jumped without hesitation, and it was the first time in all these years that she dared to face the most vulnerable side of her heart...

To save others is to redeem yourself.

The two of them stared at each other silently for a long time. Facing this life and death situation, a brighter light rose in their eyes than before.

Especially Yao Mingyue, the lingering shadow that had always been hidden deep in her almond-shaped eyes finally gradually brightened.

Yao Mingyue reached out her hand, grabbed his collar forcefully, and pulled him in front of her: "Xu Musen... I still have to warn you, if you dare to do this again in the future, I will break your legs and keep you by my side!
The tone of this speech is exactly the same as in the previous life.

But facing such a threat at this moment, Xu Musen couldn't hate it at all.

He looked at Yao Mingyue's eyes which were gradually glowing, and Xu Musen's heart seemed to finally realize the regrets in his heart bit by bit.

"Yes, old..."

Xu Musen almost blurted it out out of habit.

"Old what?"

"Old sister."

"? You're looking for a fight!"

Yao Mingyue clenched her fist lightly and punched Xu Musen in the chest.

But the next moment, Xu Musen, who was smiling just now, suddenly closed his eyes and fell directly on her chest.

Even through his clothes, Yao Mingyue could feel the heat on his forehead.

"Mu Sen!"

Yao Mingyue shouted that her punch could not hit him, but Xu Musen had been soaking in the ice water for so long and ran all the way to take Yao Mingyue to the hospital.

He was just holding on purely on the breath of adrenaline.

After confirming that Yao Mingyue was fine, he finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted in her arms.

The young nurse also came back with the medicine soup. When she heard the noise, she hurried over to take a look.

But when she lifted the curtain, she could see Xu Musen lying on Yao Mingyue's chest from her perspective.

She was stunned for a moment and looked down at the medicine in her hand.

This is... already fed?
