Chapter 220 Extra: Although I don’t know you, I am willing to accompany you for the last time!
Lin Yuxi was lying in a dark and damp corner, the wounds on her body were still bleeding, and her consciousness was gradually blurring. The revenge of those people was so cruel that she had no hope of survival.
Just when she felt her life was about to fade away, the worn-out cell phone beside her suddenly rang. She raised her hand with great effort and pressed the answer button.
"Hello? Is this Miss Lin Yuxi?" A strange and steady voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lin Yuxi responded weakly: "It's me..."
"Hello, Miss Lin! I am Shen Minghui, and I am on my father's orders to find the orphan of my uncle Liu's family.
According to the information from the orphanage, you and Miss Lu Yao both meet the criteria we are looking for, and we found the keepsake of my Uncle Liu's family, that half piece of the jade pendant, in the childhood photos of you and Miss Lu Yao!
Miss Lin, do you still remember who among you is the original owner of this jade pendant? "
Shen Minghui's voice was orderly. Even though Lin Yuxi's consciousness had begun to become unclear, she could still clearly hear what he wanted to express!
Jade pendant?
Orphan?
When Lin Yuxi heard the news, she was overjoyed at first. She had finally received news about her family. But when the word "orphan" came out, her joy was fleeting.
It turns out she is an orphan!
So she still has no family in this world, right?
If that's the case, what is there for her to miss? Maybe she can be reunited with her family there?
I don’t know if mom and dad are getting impatient waiting?
"Ms. Lin, are you listening? Can you tell me who is the original owner of the half jade pendant between you and Ms. Lu Yao? Can you tell me? This is really important to me!"
Lin Yuxi heard the voice on the other end of the phone and smiled bitterly. What did it matter? She didn't have much time left, and besides, she had already given the jade pendant to Lu Yao!
She has been wearing it for decades, and she can no longer tell who it belongs to!
But Lin Yuxi also said that her family also belongs to her, so perhaps today is the time to fulfill her promise!
She held the phone tightly and said in a weak but firm voice, "That half of the jade pendant belongs to Lu Yao. It was given to her by her family (me). ... What is your relationship with her? Please... take good care of her!"
Shen Minghui on the other end of the phone realized that there was something wrong with the girl's voice, and immediately asked anxiously: "Ms. Lin, what's wrong with you? What happened? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Lin Yuxi slowly closed her eyes, tears falling from the corners of her eyes: "Mr. Shen, thank...thank...you for calling me...when I'm...dying...I finally...have no...regrets!"
"Ms. Lin, what's wrong with you? Where are you now? I will send someone to rescue you immediately. You must not give up!" Shen Minghui was shocked and realized something immediately. He shouted loudly, trying to save the young life opposite!
Lin Yuxi took a deep breath and said with her last bit of strength: "It's too late to come... come... Help me... tell... Lu... Lu Yao... I... don't..."
Before she finished speaking, Lin Yuxi's hands dropped weakly and her phone fell to the ground.
Shen Minghui on the other end of the phone seemed to have noticed something, and hurriedly shouted Lin Yuxi's name, "Ms. Lin! Miss Lin! How are you? Where are you? I will come to rescue you right away!" However, the only response he got was the busy tone on the phone.
Shen Minghui was very anxious. He immediately asked someone to locate Lin Yuxi's cell phone, found Lin Yuxi's approximate location, and immediately called the 120 emergency hotline, then rushed over regardless of everything.
However, when he finally found that dark corner, what he saw was Lin Yuxi's lifeless body.
He rushed over, knelt beside Lin Yuxi, and checked her breath with trembling hands, but there was no breath.
Shen Minghui knelt beside Lin Yuxi in a daze, tears welling up uncontrollably in his eyes. They were strangers, and it was only their first time meeting, but the tears seemed to have consciousness and welled up uncontrollably in his eyes.
He is obviously not a crybaby!
His hands were still in the same position as when he was testing his breath, and they were shaking constantly.
"How could this happen? How could this happen!" he muttered to himself, his voice full of disbelief and deep regret.
"If I could be faster, could I have saved you?"
At this time, the sound of an ambulance came from far away. The medical staff quickly jumped out of the car and rushed to Lin Yuxi. After a check, they shook their heads helplessly.
Shen Minghui suddenly collapsed to the ground. He watched the medical staff carry Lin Yuxi into the ambulance, and he followed them in a daze.
In the hospital, Shen Minghui sat on a chair in the corridor, holding his head in his hands, full of regret. "Why didn't I find out something was wrong earlier? Why!"
A nurse came over and said softly, "Sir, I am very sorry for your loss. May I ask who the deceased is? There are some follow-up procedures that need to be handled."
Shen Minghui raised his head, his eyes slightly blank, "Me? I'm just a stranger who made the last phone call with her. But I want to take care of her funeral."
The nurse was a little surprised, but nodded: "Okay, sir, please follow me."
Shen Minghui forced himself to cheer up and followed the nurse to go through various formalities. Every time he signed a word, his heart felt like being pricked by a needle. It wasn't very painful, but it was hard to ignore!
"Handle her funeral properly. She must not die in unrest."
After handling everything, Shen Minghui contacted the funeral home. At Lin Yuxi's funeral, he stood quietly by.
A passerby asked him curiously: "What is your relationship with her?"
Shen Minghui looked puzzled. After a long while, he finally said, "I was just a person who... accidentally called her... last phone call."
"Then why do you do so much for her?" The man was even more confused.
Shen Minghui looked at Lin Yuxi's portrait and said slowly: "Even if we only met once, we can't let life disappear silently like this. I couldn't save her life, but I hope to give her the final dignity and peace."
After saying that, he bowed deeply, turned and left, leaving behind only a back full of regret and a little sadness.
……
When he returned home, Shen Minghui was filled with anger and vowed to find out the reason why Lin Yuxi was killed. He used all his connections and personal connections to conduct an in-depth investigation into the matter.
"Boss, we found out. It was the leader of the Black Gang who ordered this to happen. His purpose was to take revenge on Lu Yao! Let her experience the pain of losing her loved ones!" The subordinates reported to Shen Minghui.
Shen Minghui frowned, "Lu Yao? It's because of her?"
Black Gang?
What is that?
"Xiao Chen, send someone to investigate this Black Clothes Gang. There is no need for these scum who take human lives lightly to exist!"
"Yes, boss!"
……
"Son, since Lu Yao has been found, you should complete the wedding as soon as possible!"
"Dad, I refuse!"
