Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

There is only one flight a day to Fiji, at 12:20 a.m.

At nine o'clock, Si Yuan took Si Aofu to the airport.

The autumn rain came heavily, and the road was full of traffic jams and red lights, making Si Yuan inexplicably irritable and uneasy.

She held Si Aofu's hand tightly. "Sister, how about... we stay a few more days?"

Si Aofu assumed this was Si Yuan's separation anxiety and gently hugged her to comfort her, "It's alright, didn't we agree that we'd see each other soon?"

"I...I'm worried about leaving you alone..."

"Who said I'm alone?"

Si Aofu took Si Yuan's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen. "I have a baby. Motherhood makes you strong, so don't worry about me."

Si Yuan grew increasingly anxious as she watched the windshield wipers swung more and more. "But it's raining so hard..."

Thinking of how Si Zhixia and Bo Qinghe also had their accidents on rainy nights like this, Si Aofu felt sorry for Si Yuan, "The rain was just a coincidence, A Yuan, it's okay."

Si Yuan's expression was somewhat unpleasant. Not wanting her negative emotions to affect Si Aofu's mood, she could only nod and say, "Mm."

The airport was in chaos and congested, I don't know what happened.

The car couldn't get through the station entrance at all.

Fearing she would miss her flight, Si Aofu said to the driver, "Sir, please stop here."

Just as Si Yuan was about to get out of the car, Si Aofu stopped her, saying, "A Yuan, let's stop here."

Si Yuan grasped Si Aofu's hand tightly in return, "Sister, I'll take you inside."

"No."

Si Aofu hugged Si Yuan, "I don't want to see your tearful eyes again, and I don't want to cry anymore."

"But……"

"Ah Yuan, be good. Our short separation is for a better reunion in the future. You haven't been sleeping well or eating well lately, and you've been secretly coughing, thinking I didn't know, right?"

Si Yuan: "..."

"One autumn rain brings a chill; if you catch a cold, how can I leave in peace?"

Upon hearing the word "leave," Si Yuan's heart tightened for no apparent reason.

She gripped Si Aofu's clothes tightly, but eventually, under Si Aofu's gentle gaze, she gradually let go.

"Okay, then be sure to contact me as soon as you get off the plane."

Si Aofu patted Si Yuan's head and smiled, "Definitely."

Si Yuan opened the umbrella for Si Aofu, who took it from her. "Okay, I'm going in now. You get in the car quickly..."

Si Yuan shook her head. "I'll watch you go in."

Si Aofu knew that Si Yuan was stubborn, so she stopped trying to persuade her.

Large raindrops pounded on the car roof and the ground, splashing water half a foot high. A gray curtain of rain enveloped the world, blurring the airport entrance lights into a hazy patch of light.

Si Yuan held up a large black umbrella, her trouser legs already soaked by the slanting rain, clinging coldly to her ankles. As she watched Si Aofu go, her eyes still reddened and her nose stung with tears, just like before.

Si Aofu was also reluctant to part with Si Yuan, turning back every few steps.

Si Aofu, wearing a light-colored trench coat, her hair slightly disheveled by the wind, a gentle smile on her face, waved vigorously at Si Yuan through the dense rain, her lips moving...

The rain was heavy, and the surrounding area was filled with the noise of rain and traffic.

Si Yuan couldn't hear what Si Aofu was saying; her gaze was fixed on Si Aofu's red lips—

She wanted to read her sister's lips to understand what she was saying.

However, before she could make a judgment, a blinding white light suddenly pierced through the rain curtain, accompanied by a piercing, teeth-grinding screech of brakes, violently tearing apart the oppressive atmosphere of the rain.

It felt as if all the blood in my body had stopped flowing for a moment.

Si Yuan watched helplessly as the out-of-control car, like a wild beast, crashed violently into the figure who was still waving at her.

The dull thud, mixed with the sound of rain, pounded into her ears.

Si Aofu's body was like a withered leaf swept away by a gale, lightly thrown into the air, and then crashed heavily onto the wet ground.

Her trench coat was soaked through with mud and water, and the glaring red spread along the hem of her coat, creating a stark contrast with the gray rain and the black road.

Si Yuan stood there, her eyes wide open, her pupils filled only with the image of her sister falling, her mind blank, as if a pause button had been pressed.

The sounds of rain, brakes, and gasps from those around her all became blurry and distant, as if through a thick layer of cotton. She couldn't hear anything clearly, nor could she react to anything.

The umbrella in my hand fell to the ground with a "thud"—

The rain instantly soaked her hair and clothes, the icy water sliding down her cheeks, but she felt nothing; her face was expressionless, only a deathly stillness remained—

It was a sudden disaster that shattered her consciousness, leaving her no time to even feel sadness or fear.

The deathly silence was shattered in just a few seconds.

That deep-seated terror surged through her body like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing her.

Si Yuan's body began to tremble uncontrollably, her teeth chattering, and a broken, incoherent sob escaped her throat—

Tears mingled with the rain and streamed down her face. Before she could even wipe them away, her body moved before her mind could process them.

"elder sister--"

Si Yuan rushed towards Si Aofu like a madwoman, staggering and nearly tripping over the slippery ground several times.

Ignoring the howling wind and the lashing rain, and the attempts and gasps of those around her, all she could see was the motionless figure lying on the ground.

"Sister... Sister..."

That short distance of a dozen meters seemed to stretch on endlessly in Si Yuan's eyes.

The rain blurred her vision, and she could only rush towards the blinding red light, guided only by instinct.

Only when she reached Si Aofu's side did her legs buckle, and she knelt heavily in the mud, her hand trembling as she reached out, yet she dared not touch her...

"Sister...Sister..."

Si Aofu's light-colored trench coat was run over by the wheels and became covered in murky mud and dark red blood.

Her once smooth, long hair clung to her pale, paper-white cheeks, and a gruesome wound on her forehead was constantly oozing blood, which slid down her jawline and mingled with the blood foam overflowing from the corner of her mouth.

"Ah... Ah Yuan..."

As Si Aofu opened her mouth, blood gushed out. Her hands trembled violently as she helplessly touched her lower abdomen. "Is...is the baby alright?"

Blood kept flowing from Si Aofu's mouth, and Si Yuan cried as she tried to wipe it away, but she couldn't stop.

"Tell...tell me..."

The blood flowing from Si Aofu's lower body stung Si Yuan's eyes, and tears streamed down her face. She knew that the child could not be saved.

Si Yuan gritted her teeth, "Sister... I'll take you to the hospital..."

Si Aofu gripped Si Yuan's arm tightly, giving her a bitter smile. "You...you didn't...say it...but I...know...the baby is gone...I...can...feel...he's...gone..."

Si Yuan shook her head, crying, "No, medicine is so advanced now, the doctors will definitely save the baby..."
