Chapter 1082: Just for This Life, Not Thinking About Eternity
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Looking at a determined Shangxin, who had already made her mind up, Nian Xiaomu did not utter another word.
Sometimes, when we look at how people make decisions, we think they are silly and stubborn.
Only when we are the ones making the decision would we be able to understand the kind of desperation of not having any other option to choose.
In this world, there is no such thing as empathizing with what others feel.
Only the one who is suffering can feel the pain.


No matter how much one understands this pain, the only one feeling it is the one suffering. As for others, the most they can do is console the one in pain.
They cannot possibly feel the pain for you.
Nian Xiaomu was worried about Shangxin and decided to personally take her back to the hospital. After making sure she was fine, she was about to leave when they heard his assistant exclaiming in alarm inside the VIP ward.

President Tang, you’re still on the IV drip. You can’t get off the bed, your hand is bleeding…

Hearing the words of his assistant, Shangxin’s face changed instantly as she stood outside the ward.
Without any hesitation, she pushed the door of the ward open and immediately rushed in.
She had only stood still for a moment when she was pulled into a warm embrace.
Tang Yuansi was still in the blue and white striped hospital gown, which made his pale face look slightly more energetic.
But, at this very moment, his gaze was rather anxious.
It was as if he had lost a precious treasure of his, and he was extremely anxious to get it back.


Only after he had pulled Shangxin into his arms tightly did he heave a sigh of relief.
The needle on the back of his hand had been pulled out and was dripping blood which had stained the cuff of his sleeve.
Luckily, it was not bleeding very heavily.
As she hugged him, Shangxin could feel something amiss with him and asked lightly,
Brother Xiaosi, what’s wrong?

Tang Yuansi did not answer her but asked instead,
Where have you been?

His chin rested on her shoulder and he spoke in a low and deep voice.
The little mustache on his chin, which had grown out, touched her soft and delicate skin, making it itch slightly.
Shangxin had just moved when Tang Yuansi pulled her tightly before repeating his earlier question.

Where did you go by yourself?


Nowhere in particular. I just went back to the Tang Family villa to get the butler to brew some nourishing tonic for you…




I just called the villa, the butler said you haven’t been back the whole day,
Tang Yuansi muttered nonchalantly, interrupting her.
The smile on Shangxin’s face froze.
She raised her head to look up at him and was faced with his clear gaze. She somehow felt that he had already found out everything.
But, it was impossible.
She had only just met Feng Ling, and it was impossible that she had foolishly told Tang Yuansi about their deal.
Shangxin nervously licked her lips before replying,
Actually, I just felt quite bored in the hospital and decided to go out to shop. I was afraid you would get worried, so…

Tang Yuansi responded solemnly,
Xin’er, look into my eyes and tell me. Where have you been?


…

As they exchanged looks, she could not say a word.
When she finally got herself together and was about to make up another lie, Tang Yuansi spoke out in his low voice.



Enough! Don’t say a word more. You went so meet Feng Ling behind my back, didn’t you?

Shangxin raised her head in surprise, a look of panic flashed across her face. Just her reaction alone confirmed his suspicion.
Moreover, it was not pure speculation on Tang Yuansi’s part.
He had not seen her when he woke up and when he was sleeping earlier, he had vaguely heard her speaking to him.
He had not heard it clearly then but remembered that there was something amiss about her tone.
Only after forcing his assistant to speak did he find out that Feng Ling had returned.
Without asking much, he could already guess what she was trying to do by going to meet Feng Ling alone.
Tang Yuansi’s warm hands cupped her pale little face.
Lowering his head slightly, he leaned his forehead closer to her.
Listen to me. I’ve never cared about how long a life I can live. If I have to leave you in order to survive, I’ll rather die in your arms right now!
