She continued, "It was Brother Chengchi who saved my life. I smelled the scent of blood, I saw the black letters on his white shirt."
Gu Lanshan's complexion turned somewhat pale. "Then I fainted. When I woke up, Brother Chengchi was in the hospital. I went to see him, I saw his white shirt covered in blood and those black letters on his collar, and then I finally understood that everything that happened that night wasn't a dream; it was real!"
"Shi'er, do you know how I felt at that time? I was deeply moved. After my mother abandoned me, I felt so insecure. I thought, if my mother didn't like me, how could anyone in the world possibly like me?"
"But I never expected that someone would be willing, at the brink of death, to protect me by sacrificing their own life."
