Song Ge looked sorrowful. She raised her eyes, and tears glistened in them. "I'm sorry. If I had blocked in front of him back then, this wouldn't have happened."
Ji Qingzhen frowned. "What on earth happened?"
"At that time, a car was coming. Ji Qingyun saved me..." As she spoke, Song Ge's voice trembled and she choked up. The scenes flashed before her eyes. "He was hit by the car while saving me."
Ji Qingzhen clenched his fists tightly, trying his best to hold back his emotions.
"I'm sorry. If it weren't for me, Ji Qingyun, he, he wouldn't have..." Song Ge choked with sobs and couldn't speak anymore.
Ji Qingzhen sighed, took out a tissue, and handed it to Song Ge.
Song Ge was startled, then took the tissue. "Thank you." After a pause, she raised her eyes. "If you think I'm the one who killed Ji Qingyun, I'm willing to pay with my life." This was what she owed, but when she thought of her parents and Zhai Cheng, she felt a bit reluctant.
Ji Qingzhen sighed. He didn't mean to blame her. "The dead are gone. Those of us still alive should live well." He believed that if such a thing happened again, his elder brother would still make the same choice.
"Thank you." Besides expressing gratitude, Song Ge didn't know what else to say.
After that, both of them fell silent.
After a while, Song Ge asked, "How did you know about me? We didn't know each other before."
"Brother always mentioned you before." Ji Qingzhen still remembered the look on his brother's face when he talked about Song Ge. He believed that his brother really liked Song Ge very much. "Naturally, I have an impression of you."
Song Ge nodded. She owed Ji Qingyun her whole life. "You're his younger brother. If you need any help in the future, just ask."
"Okay. I'll remember that." Ji Qingzhen wasn't being polite either.
Whenever Song Ge saw Ji Qingzhen, she couldn't help but think of Ji Qingyun. It was as if she saw another version of him still alive in this world.
Ji Qingzhen gave the menu to Song Ge. "Order your food."
Song Ge casually ordered two dishes. She listened to Ji Qingzhen talk a lot about Ji Qingyun's childhood, and the two of them got familiar with each other.
"If you need help in the future, just come to me." When they finished their meal and were about to part ways, Song Ge said this again.
"Okay." Ji Qingzhen nodded. He pointed to the car not far away. "Then I'll leave first."
Song Ge nodded. She watched Ji Qingzhen leave, sighed, then turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly, she had an idea. She remembered something and immediately took off running after him.
Ji Qingzhen didn't know that Song Ge was running after him. He got in the car and drove away.
Song Ge quickened her pace and shouted as she ran.
Ji Qingzhen saw Song Ge chasing after him in the rear - view mirror. He stopped the car and got out.
Song Ge was out of breath. She propped her hands on her legs and gasped for air.
Ji Qingzhen didn't urge her. Instead, he just stood there waiting.
Song Ge looked embarrassed. "Can you do me a favor?"
Ji Qingzhen looked puzzled.
Song Ge took Ji Qingzhen to the hospital.
"What are we doing in the hospital?" Ji Qingzhen was even more confused. He asked Song Ge, but Song Ge still said nothing.
Song Ge pushed open the door of the ward. Only Leng Jing was lying on the bed. Zhai Cheng was nowhere to be seen.
Ji Qingzhen looked at the sleeping woman on the bed in confusion.
Maybe feeling the gaze, Leng Jing opened her eyes. She was stunned for a few seconds, and then tears streamed down uncontrollably.
Ji Qingzhen glanced at Song Ge, then at Leng Jing. There was a meaning in her eyes that he couldn't understand.
Leng Jing pulled out the infusion tube on her hand and walked towards Ji Qingzhen step by step. Finally, she hugged him tightly and murmured, "You're finally back. Do you know how much I've missed you?"
Ji Qingzhen stiffened all over. He raised his hands and didn't dare to touch the woman in front of him. He looked at Song Ge for help.
Song Ge stepped forward and pulled Leng Jing away. But Leng Jing threw herself at Ji Qingzhen regardless. Helplessly, Song Ge had to let Ji Qingzhen sit on the sofa not far away. Leng Jing also sat down, and she didn't forget to hold tightly onto Ji Qingzhen's hand, afraid that he would leave.
"Listen to me. He's Ji Qingyun's younger brother, Ji Qingzhen."
Leng Jing turned to look at the man beside her. She looked at him carefully, which made Ji Qingzhen's scalp tingle. "No, he's Ji Qingyun. He is."
Song Ge rubbed her forehead. This was a situation she hadn't expected. "They're twins, so they look very similar." She explained again.
Leng Jing still didn't believe it. She held tightly onto Ji Qingzhen's hand and refused to let go. "He's my Ji Qingyun. He's back."
Ji Qingzhen was on the verge of collapse. He didn't know how to deal with the current situation.
Seeing that Leng Jing wouldn't listen no matter what, and since she still needed to have an infusion and couldn't get too excited, Song Ge had no choice but to nod.
She winked at Ji Qingzhen.
Although Ji Qingzhen didn't know exactly what was going on, he could tell that this woman must like his elder brother very much. He understood what Song Ge meant. He smiled and comforted Leng Jing, "Be good. Go back to bed and have your infusion. I'll go out and buy you something to eat."
"I don't want to." Leng Jing pouted like a child. It was as if she had gone back to how she used to be.
Ji Qingzhen had no choice. He nervously reached out his hand and gently stroked Leng Jing's head. His voice was gentle. "Be good and listen to me. Otherwise, I'll leave."
Hearing that he was going to leave, Leng Jing panicked and immediately obediently lay down on the bed.
Song Ge put her hands behind her back and gave Ji Qingzhen a thumbs - up.
Leng Jing obediently had her infusion on the bed. Song Ge and Ji Qingzhen went out together.
"What's going on?" Ji Qingzhen asked helplessly.
Song Ge sighed and told Ji Qingzhen everything. "So, could you please do me a favor?"
Ji Qingzhen already knew what Song Ge was going to say next. He wanted to refuse, but he couldn't bring himself to. Song Ge was the woman his elder brother loved the most. If he were still alive, he would definitely not stand by.
The two of them went back to the ward again.
When Leng Jing saw Ji Qingzhen come back, she smiled like a child. She couldn't wait to pat the space beside her, indicating for him to come and sit down.
Ji Qingzhen sat down reluctantly. Leng Jing quickly grabbed his hand and leaned on his shoulder. Only in this way could she feel at ease.
Song Ge found that with Ji Qingzhen around, Leng Jing was like a different person. She was obedient when it came to eating and taking medicine.
Night fell. Ji Qingzhen had been there for a whole day and wanted to leave, but Leng Jing refused no matter what. "You have to stay with me."
Ji Qingzhen was in a dilemma. But seeing Song Ge's pleading eyes, he sighed and stayed.
Even when sleeping, Leng Jing didn't let Ji Qingzhen leave. She hugged his hand and fell asleep.
