Chapter 1080 - Saving Her
Chapter 1080: Saving Her
Xia Mo felt that she must have been terribly bored. The doctor had just been cursed at and thrown away by his ex-girlfriend, why was she pitying him for?
There was nothing between them.
She hit her head, almost forgetting that she looked for him to ask for other ways to contact Editor Xia!
Xia Mo mustered her courage, about to walk towards that lonely figure when that figure suddenly moved and took out two bottles of strong liquor before he started walking towards the empty beach in her surprise.
Xia Mo remained standing there, not knowing if she should follow him or leave.
From how he looked, he probably hadn’t left the sadness from the end of his relationship.
If she went to ask him for Editor Xia’s contact now, she might not be able to get it.
Touching her nose, Xia Mo chose to leave quickly.
After she returned to her apartment, Xia Mo took a shower and took a nap on her bed.
She didn’t care if Xia Yanran’s number could go through, as she sent a message to her. [Editor Xia, if you’re back at Ning City, let’s meet up! I have something very important to tell you about!]
Uncle Xiao had saved her before. She knew a little about how it hadn’t been easy for him to reach where he was now.
She hoped for him to be happy.
Her instincts told her that he would only be happy if Editor Xia was with him.
Xia Mo turned around, never expecting herself to have the potential to be a matchmaker.
Xia Mo was awoken by her ringing phone.
Thinking that it was Editor Xia calling her, her eyes remained closed as she found her phone and answered the call, shouting excitedly, “Editor Xia!”
The person on the other end of the call froze for a few seconds. “What Editor Xia? She’s already quit. I’m Bai Tongtong. The agency has a colleague gathering tonight, are you coming?”
“No.”
Xia Mo hung up.
After she woke up, she noticed that it was raining outside. The weather changed really quickly. The sun was still shining brightly in the morning!
Xia Mo looked up on the weather forecast. Oh my god, there would be a storm at night too!
Recalling that her clothes were still out on the balcony, Xia Mo hurriedly ran over to keep them.
As she was collecting her clothes, she glanced outside at the stormy weather, a lonely figure appearing in her mind unconsciously.
When she left the beach, he was drinking two bottles of strong liquor at the beach. He should have returned home long ago, right?
However, at the thought that he seemed to be really depressed, Xia Mo couldn’t bring herself to ease.
She returned to her room and changed, before taking a taxi to the beach.
“Miss, the skies are almost dark, what are you doing at the beach? The rain is so heavy while the wind by the beach is so strong. It would be high tide now, so it’s dangerous for a girl to be alone,” the taxi driver said kindly.
Xia Mo hummed. “There’s something I have to do there.”
The driver didn’t ask anymore.
Once they arrived, Xia Mo held her umbrella as she got off hurriedly.
Xia Mo went back to where the Doctor had been drinking earlier, letting out a sigh of relief when she didn’t see him.
That was right. He had only fallen out of his relationship, why did he have to get drunk and lose hope on life?!
Xia Mo was about to turn around when she suddenly saw a tall and thin figure sitting on a reef rock in the distance, an unfinished bottle of alcohol still in his hand.
Lighting and thunder struck, the dark clouds covering half of the skies. The waves clashed about, looking extremely dangerous.
However, that figure didn’t seem like he had any intention to leave.
If the tide rose too much, he might be thrown into the sea when a strong wave came over!
Xia Mo furrowed her eyebrows tightly.
Back in the mountain, she already felt that the doctor was strange. Although he was considered nice and warm in front of Editor Xia, he was quiet and introverted when he was alone.
…
Junyuan never drank in the past. He didn’t know when he started liking the taste of smoking and drinking either.
After drinking more than a bottle of strong liquor, he felt slightly dizzy.
His eyes stared at the wide and dangerous sea in front of him dazedly, not an ounce of fear or cowering in his eyes.
With his alcohol-muddled thoughts, he was even thinking if he could be relieved of all of his pain if a crazy wave would throw him into the sea.
In the end, he wasn’t a saint, he was only human. Being unable to do surgeries anymore was already a fatal blow to him.
He had to convince himself that he only couldn’t do surgeries, he could still use his medical skills to help others. He could still take care of his younger sisters. He still had value to his life.
However, he never thought that he would become a useless person.
A useless person that everyone despised.
He had his dignity and arrogance too. He could no longer bring himself to accept reality after he was injured at his most important place.
The last few weeks felt like a nightmare to him, but he didn’t want his younger sisters to worry about him either, so he did his best to adjust himself.
However, he had no way to vent the sadness, pain and bitterness suppressed within him. His younger sisters were grown up now. He had done the thing he promised his parents.
Did that mean he could leave now?
Living was too tiring.
Junyuan took a large sip of the fiery alcohol. When a crazy wave crashed into the reef rock, he closed his eyes.
Xia Mo stood by the beach, screaming out loud when she saw a crazy wave hit the reef rock, the man drawn into the dark waters.
Oh my god, did he really not want to live anymore?
Did he have to?!
Xia Mo couldn’t care about her fear as she threw her umbrella away and jumped into the water.
Xia Mo was a swimming champion when she was younger. If it wasn’t because the Huo family didn’t let her, she might have even become a member of the national team. She was very good in water. After she held her breath, she started swimming towards where Junyuan had disappeared.
The moment Junyuan was covered by the water, his consciousness woke up quite a bit immediately.
At the thought that he wanted to leave this world so irresponsibly, he thought about his two younger sisters. If he left like this, wouldn’t they in pain forever?
The moment he understood this, Junyuan wanted to swim back to shore, but because he had stayed too long on the reef rock, his calf was cramping.
He choked on a few mouthfuls of seawater.
A suffocating feeling swarmed towards him.
Just as he thought he would be buried in this wide and ravaging sea, a soft hand pulled his hand.
It was dark around him, so he couldn’t see who the person was.
Very quickly, the person pulled him out of the water.
As he lay on the beach, Junyuan coughed nonstop. Before he could catch his breath, he suddenly received a loud slap.
“You coward! Can death solve everything? Are you still a man to act like this for a woman?”
Junyuan’s eyes turned red. He stared at the fierce girl squatting beside him, taking a while to finally remember who she was.
He wanted to thank her, but her last sentence triggered his sensitive mind.
His jaw tensed, the vein on his forehead twitching. “Why are you concerned about whether I’m a man or not? Scram and never appear in front of me again!”
Seeing that he was fiercer than her, Xia Mo froze, her hand raising as she wanted to slap him again.
But because she could touch him, she stopped herself when she saw his tightly pursed pale lips. “Never mind, I can’t be bothered whether or not you want to die or live!”
She turned around and left.
