The Malevolent Female Villain Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 142

"Kid!"

The instant Ye Junwen fell, Zhen Kechuan exclaimed in shock, without hesitation, he jumped down following Ye Junwen.

"Junwen!"

"Uncle!"

The sudden change made Ye Junli, Ye Jinmeng, and others widen their eyes, instantly rushing forward.

Policeman Shi and his team reacted, promptly stopping Ye Junli and the others.

"Don't go over there yet, be careful of the cliff edge loosening again, it can be very dangerous!"

"You all wait here, I'll go over and take a look!"

Policeman Shi soothed everyone, moved alone to the edge of the cliff, and crouched down to look below.

Below was pitch black. Policeman Shi shone a flashlight down, it was too deep to see the bottom, only occasionally seeing pebbles rolling downwards.

Policeman Shi closed his eyes, it looked like they would need to call in a rescue team.

Standing up, he returned to his original position, "Xiao Li, quickly contact the rescue team, start searching below."

Then he looked at Ye Junli and the others, "It's dangerous over there, don't go. We can only wait for the rescue team before we can conclude their situation."

Ye Junli's body shuddered, He Junting and Xu Wanwan immediately supported him. Ye Jinmeng also looked unwell, held tightly in Shi Shuning's arms.

In the hospital, Old Master Ye and Old Madam Ye were simultaneously awakened by a nightmare. The Old Master was clutching his chest, feeling extremely anxious. The Old Madam was trembling, a bad premonition welled up in her heart.

As time passed second by second, the fire around the distant castle had been extinguished. Luckily, only the trees surrounding the castle were damaged.

The rescue team descended to the bottom of the cliff by helicopter, finding Zhen Kechuan and Ye Junwen.

To everyone's shock, the two men's bodies overlapped. Zhen Kechuan had been shattered, yet he still tightly embraced Ye Junwen, becoming Ye Junwen's "human cushion", unfortunately dying on the spot.

Ye Junwen, possibly due to the cushioning effect of Zhen Kechuan's "human cushion", still had a faint breath.

The rescue team quickly treated Ye Junwen's still bleeding wounds, carefully lifted him onto a stretcher, and slowly moved him onto the helicopter.

Zhen Kechuan was also gently placed into a body bag, directly sent to the hospital with the helicopter.

Policeman Shi, who received the news on the cliff, sighed, looking at Ye Junli, "Mr. Ye, they have been found. Zhen Kechuan protected Mr. Ye Junwen, dying on the spot. Mr. Ye Junwen is seriously injured, has been put on the helicopter, and is being rushed to the hospital."

Ye Junli's vision blackened, if not for He Junting and Xu Wanwan supporting him, he would have fallen to the ground.

"Dad!"

Xu Wanwan was extremely concerned for Ye Junli's wellbeing. These consecutive shocks hit hard, and as the pillar of the Ye family, Ye Junli had been trying hard to support the entire family.

Policeman Shi: "Let's leave here first and take Mr. Ye to the hospital!"

Without a second thought, He Junting picked up Ye Junli and started to walk away, with Xu Wanwan supporting from behind.

Ye Jinmeng, due to excessive mental tension and fatigue, coupled with injuries sustained from her previous escape, only managed to take a few steps before her vision blacked out, and she collapsed into Shi Shuning's arms.

"Jinmeng!"

Shi Shuning called out anxiously. Xu Wanwan, who had turned her head at the commotion, also hurried over, "Jinmeng, Jinmeng, are you okay?"

Ye Jinmeng slowly opened her eyes, feeling soreness and pain throughout her body. Her voice was exceptionally weak, "Wanwan, Brother Shuning, I'm so tired."

"Can I sleep for a while...just a little while..."

Shi Shuning tenderly touched her face, "Okay, just for a while. But when I call you, you have to wake up, okay?"

"Okay..." Ye Jinmeng's voice trailed off, and the next second, she lost consciousness.

Hospital.

After a long period of resuscitation, Ye Junwen was finally pulled back from the brink of death.

"The patient is seriously injured. If he can get through this critical period, the best scenario is that he might spend the rest of his life in bed, essentially in a vegetative state."

This was the first time in his many years of medical practice that he had seen a patient with such severe injuries manage to pull through.

There were multiple instances during the resuscitation process when the patient's heart stopped. Each time they were about to give up, the heart miraculously revived.

This indicated that the patient had a strong will to live, which gave the doctors strong confidence. They had to bring him back from the clutches of death.

Old Madam Ye cried, "My son..."

Old Master Ye murmured softly, "As long as he's alive, that's good enough..."

"Dad, I'm sorry. I failed to bring Junwen back safely." Ye Junli looked at his brother being pushed into the ICU, his face full of grief.

Old Master Ye sighed, "Ah, it's not your fault. If there's anyone to blame, it's us, his parents, for neglecting him when he was young, overlooking his efforts and achievements."

"From now on, as long as we old folks are still alive, we'll take good care of him. Since we can't redo the past, let's make up for it in the future."

At this moment, a nurse came over, holding a tray. "These are the patient's personal belongings."

Ye Junli glanced at them, and a jade pendant caught his eye.

Upon closer inspection, he saw the character "Chuan" carved on it, presumably belonging to Zhen Kechuan.

Ye Junwen's survival was inseparable from Zhen Kechuan. If Junwen was conscious, he would also feel sad, wouldn't he?

Once Junwen gets through the critical period and leaves the ICU, he'll put this jade pendant in his palm. It should bring protection to Junwen, right?

Actually, Ye Junwen was always conscious, and he knew that someone was constantly resuscitating him.

It wasn't that he didn't want to die, but he had to live.

At the moment of his fall, Zhen Kechuan had held him and shielded him in his arms.

Before hitting the ground, he had left him with his last words: "Kid, live on for me..."

In the final moment of Zhen Kechuan's life, he was still protecting him. Although Ye Junwen didn't understand why Zhen Kechuan was always so good to him, even if it was to repay the favor of treating his injuries, he had already done so much for him, and the debt was already repaid.

Zhen Kechuan had exposed his whereabouts due to his own foolishness, and it was for his rescue that he died. Therefore, he must promise to strive to survive, even if he spends the rest of his life in darkness...
