But in order to treat me, he humbly begged for help and borrowed money everywhere.
In this life, I couldn't let Cheng Li suffer like that again.
I squatted on the ground and tried to restore the cake to its original state, but the harder I tried, the worse it became. The cream stuck to my hand, but I couldn't put it together.
Look!
In her two lives, she had never eaten a cake.
This was the so-called fate, right?
Warm tears dripped on the cake, blurring her vision.
I apologized over and over again.
"I'm sorry to hurt you in this way."
I didn't know how long I had been crying when a familiar dizziness hit me.
I used my last consciousness to dial the doctor.

The smell of disinfectant provoked every nerve in my body.
The moment I opened my eyes, I suddenly wanted to laugh.
It turned out to be the attending doctor of her previous life.
"Are you reminding me that I can't escape?"
"Ask your family to come to the hospital!"
His voice was gentle, but it still made my heart tremble.
In her past life, it was this gentle voice that told Marlon that the rejection reaction was too serious and there were complications. In the rest of the day, she could eat whatever she wanted to eat!
I stood outside the door and listened as if I was waiting for the God of Death's judgement.
In fact, for a moment, I felt relaxed. I was finally relieved.
"Doctor Duncan, please save her! She is only 28 years old. She is my only family member. Please save her."
She can't die!
Marlon's pleading voice reached my ears, and my heart sank again.
Marlon's parents died in a car accident a few years ago. I became his only family member.
I felt chills all over my body, but I was unusually clear-headed.
If I continued to stay in this world, I would only drag him down and drag him into the abyss of pain.
In the end, he spent all his savings and watched me walk towards death.
To him, that was nothing more than torture.
I dragged my heavy footsteps back to the ward and sat there in a daze. After some time, Marlon came back.
His eyes were bloodshot, but there was no water stains on his face. The moment he saw me, he squeezed out a smile.
It was barely but exceptionally warm.
That was the last time I had seen Cheng Marlon's smile in my past life. It had deeply hurt my heart.
I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down before speaking slowly.
"I don't have any family, and I know what illness I have. Just tell me how long it is."
To be honest, this feeling of knowing that it wouldn't be long before he could avoid it was terrible.
Doctor Duncan told me that if there was a rule that the donor could live for 10 years, 20 years, or longer, if the kidney was changed...
Speaking of kidney transplant, I shook my head.
It reminded me of the time when Cheng Li had given me a kidney transplant.
He lay on the hospital bed with a pale face, but he still gave me a smile that was uglier than crying.
He wanted to drink water, but he couldn't pick it up after several attempts.
But there was nothing I could do. I could only shed tears in vain.
However, he still tried to comfort me.
He said that when we were discharged from the hospital, he would take me to Brittonia. It was the obsession left by a certain image when I was a child.
We didn't even get to go up until we died.
I made an appointment with Doctor Duncan to meet in three days.
I still had a trace of fantasy. Since God let me be reborn, was it possible that God would also give me a chance to live?
I don't want to die. I want to have a lovely baby with Marlon and grow old together.
But before that, I had three days left.
Perhaps, I had to settle the score with Marlon before the end of my time with him.
On the way home, I practiced my lines over and over again in my heart.
I stood at the door and rubbed the muscles on my face to make myself look more natural.
The door was opened, and a pair of red high heels fell into the living room. The room was filled with the smell of alcohol.
My heart sank.

There was a coat lying at the door of the bedroom, which was given to Nina by me.
My chest heaved violently. One hand pressed on my heart, and the other on the door handle.
Clack.
The door opened from the inside, and Marlon appeared in front of me in only a pair of shorts.
I glanced at the bedroom and saw that only a girl's head was exposed in the quilt.
She had her back to me, but her figure and hair color belonged to Nina.
For a moment, my heart skipped a beat. The tearing pain made me breathless.
This was clearly what I wanted, wasn't it?
But why does it hurt so much?
I stared blankly at Cheng Li. At some point in time, my vision had been drowned in tears.
Marlon lowered his head and closed the door. Then, he grabbed my wrist and led me to the living room.
His palm was warm and he squeezed me very hard. I didn't struggle and let him drag me.
"Don't disturb Nina's sleep."
I knew that Nina's sleep quality was so good that she wouldn't wake up even if there was thunder.
Nina was a careless girl. She liked to be noisy, but her voice was loud.
I slept very lightly, and I would wake up if there was even the slightest noise. Every time, Marlon would tell Nina to shut up and stay in the living room.
Nina complained to me that it was better to kill her.
Since when did it become like this?
"I don't know. There was no sign at all. Did something that didn't happen in my previous life happen last night?"
Marlon lowered his eyes and picked up the clothes on the ground one by one.
In the end, he pushed the water to me.
"As you can see, divorce!"
His tone was cold, as if he had planned it a long time ago.
I tightened my grip on the glass of water and spoke in a casual manner.
"Okay!"
"F*ck, what's going on? You two... because of me."
Nina didn't know when she woke up and stood at the door of the bedroom, looking at me.
She was not wearing any eye-catching clothes. She frowned and looked at Marlon in disbelief.
"No, brother, you..."
Before Nina could finish her words, Marlon covered her mouth and pulled her out of the door with her clothes.
I sniffed and realized that my face was already covered in tears.
I went back to my bedroom and packed up my things.
There was a light pink dress hanging in the cabinet, which was a gift that Marlon bought for me with her salary.
Over the years, we have moved several times and lost a lot of things, but this dress was the only one I kept.
In my previous life, before I jumped down, I deliberately changed into this set of clothes.
This time, I took it away again.
By the time Marlon returned, I was almost done packing.
In fact, I didn't have many things. I was usually busy with work and rarely bought anything. Most of the time, Marlon bought it for me.
Only the giant doll on the sofa.
I said, "Someone like Marlon insisted on buying it. He had no choice but to carry it all the way in the summer."
When she got home, her clothes were soaked.
But I'm afraid I can't take her to the hospital, so I have to stay.
I pulled my suitcase and stood face to face with Cheng Li who was standing at the door. For a moment, no one spoke.
I didn't know if it was my illusion, but I saw tears in Marlon's eyes.
Marlon coughed lightly, breaking the ice-cold atmosphere.
"Well... Do you want to have a break-up trip"
"Go to Brittonia."
Marlon and I spoke at the same time. Suddenly, we laughed face to face, as if we hadn't broken up, as if I wouldn't die.
We took a trip without delay. It only took us two hours to decide on the journey.
I sat on the plane and peeped at Marlon's shadow on the window.
He was handsome, but for some reason, he didn't seem to be full of vitality. Instead, he looked a little gloomy.
I thought I was thinking too much. At this time, Cheng Li didn't know anything. She was just a person who was about to break up and start a new life.
As for me, I would slowly fade away from his life.
Many years later, when he found out that I was dead, he would only faintly say, "It's a pity that I'm so young."
