111: Chapter 111 Curtain Call
"Husband! Please stop saying inauspicious things, okay?" Jiang Siyue's face was as pale as her clothes.
She had been suppressing her emotions all night!
Right now, she was most afraid of hearing any words related to 'death'!
"Siyue, I don't have much time left. Do you want me to die with unfulfilled wishes?"
"I won't listen! I want you to live well! You can't abandon me!" Jiang Siyue's eyes were tear-filled, and she shook her head repeatedly.
Xiao Ran was speechless.
It seemed that conventional persuasion wouldn't work.
Older Sister Jiang, don't blame me. You pushed too hard!
I need something drastic.
"System, show your talent! Give me some blood!"
"Ding! Received."
The system released a trace of suppression.
The next moment, Xiao Ran felt a warmth in front of his nose.
Another strong smell of rust!
Xiao Ran deliberately lowered his head, and pea-sized drops of blood dripped onto his clothes.
The large red stains on his white shirt looked somewhat gruesome!
"Husband! What's wrong with you!" Jiang Siyue's tears streamed down her face, and she quickly cupped his chin with her hands.
Blood had already stained her hands.
But the red liquid, gushing like a spring, couldn't be stopped.
"Wuwuwu~ Stop flowing, stop flowing!"
"Siyue, if you don't agree to break up, my head will hurt, and it will keep being like this!" Xiao Ran tilted his head back and spoke slowly.
"Why! Why does it have to be this way!"
"Because this is our fate! We can't control it!"
The blood kept gushing down, showing no sign of stopping!
"No, I won't! I don't believe in fate!" Jiang Siyue shrieked.
"Siyue, do you want me to bleed to death?" Xiao Ran retorted.
"No! Stop talking! Why is it still flowing! Stop talking quickly, your wife agrees!"
"Agrees to what?"
"Break up! Break up! Wuwuwu, please stop talking! Your wife will agree to anything you say!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining three months of lifespan, piano mastery. Given the host's current situation, an extra 'Substitute Death Card' is awarded!"
"Current remaining lifespan: 90 days 2 hours 35 minutes"
"Currently lit achievements:
... Jiang Siyue [Image] (Click to view details)"
Hearing the pleasant sound in his mind, Xiao Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he stopped the gushing nosebleed.
"System, help me use the Substitute Death Card. Trigger time 00:00." Xiao Ran gave the command.
"Ding! Substitute Death Card has been used. The host will die at midnight. The host can choose to reshape his body within seven days. Overdue will not be accepted."
Given Jiang Siyue's current state, it was absolutely impossible to leave her unharmed.
The only way was to follow the trajectory of reality and die peacefully.
Time was also running out.
It was time for him to leave her stage!
He didn't dally any longer. After comforting Jiang Siyue.
He directly led her to a black grand piano and played that piece for her.
"I hope you can help me guard this piece well, find someone truly suitable to play it, and then let that person give it a title!"
"Han Li! How can you be so selfish!"
"Yes, I am that selfish! I'm just asking if you can do it!"
"Han Li! How can you be like this!"
"I'm just asking if you can do it!"
For girls, he was not a good person.
Moreover, what's wrong with being a little selfish to stay alive!
The girls only lost a relationship, but he was losing his life!
Finally, under Xiao Ran's extreme threats, Jiang Siyue still agreed to his dying wish!
Late night.
23:57.
A man and a woman quietly snuggled on the soft, large bed.
Everything was as peaceful and natural as a demon.
"Husband! Tomorrow, your wife will take you out to see things." Jiang Siyue said in a low voice.
"Okay!" Xiao Ran nodded and agreed.
Taking a corpse out is still taking it out, right?
He wasn't breaking his word!
"Husband! I'll take you to see the big tiger, the big lion!"
"No, it's better to stay home and look at you."
"Husband, let's go take wedding photos tomorrow."
"No way."
"What's the big deal! It's not like I'm asking you to get a marriage certificate!"
"Okay..."
The two continued to talk back and forth like this.
23:59:59.
"Time's up!"
"Goodbye, Siyue..."
"I'm sorry... please forgive me..."
The world abandoned me, and I abandoned you.
The world was wrong, and I was wrong too!
Xiao Ran's body relaxed, and his brain instantly lost consciousness.
The hand placed on the girl's beautiful hair slowly slipped, but his hand was clutching a white hairpin.
His heartbeat had stopped, his pupils began to dilate, and his body temperature slowly dropped.
Xiao Ran's perspective suddenly shifted, and he looked at his own corpse from a God's-eye view.
Fortunately, he had asked the system to preserve the last bit of dignity for his body.
The corpse did not show any negative symptoms.
The girl didn't perceive this, but continued on her own,
Quietly accompanying the still warm corpse, speaking sweet words.
"Husband! Do you still remember the day we first met?"
"If you hadn't blocked that knife for me, maybe I would have already perished ~"
"Hehe, you were so silly and cute back then!"
"You were even shy and hesitant to talk to me, afraid I'd eat you!"
"Husband, do you still remember that song you gave me back then?"
"I love it the most!"
"And! When Mom opposed me being with you, you were so brave!"
"Your heroic demeanor is still vivid in my mind!"
"Husband, why aren't you talking?"
"Husband, are you asleep?"
"Hmph, chat with your wife!" Jiang Siyue playfully nudged him.
"Husband?"
"Husband! Husband!"
"..."
Mourning hall.
Black and white photo.
It's just a pity that the photo displayed was not Xiao Ran's original photo, but Han Li's!
The mourning hall was very desolate.
Only seven or eight people were present, including Xiao Ran, who had already reshaped his body!
This was his first time attending his own memorial service!
Quite interesting!
"Miss." A bodyguard came to Jiang Siyue, who was wearing mourning clothes.
"Are there any results?" Jiang Siyue asked with anticipation.
"It's invalid." The bodyguard shook his head.
"Heh heh!" Jiang Siyue sneered, as if frost had condensed in the air.
"You Han Li! You're dead! Even your tadpoles are dead!"
"Why! You'd rather die than leave me a child!"
"Why!"
The bodyguard retreated to the side, not daring to speak.
"Siyue, calm down!" Mother Jiang stepped forward and embraced her.
"Wuwuwu~~ Mom!"
"Han Li is gone! He's gone!" The girl wailed, crying heartbrokenly.
"Good daughter, you still have your mother!" Mother Jiang gently patted her back.
"Wuwuwu~"
Xiao Ran stood aside, silently watching all of this.
He also felt very sad!
But this was unavoidable!
... "Who are you, do we know each other?" Jiang Siyue looked at the person in front of her, puzzled.
"I am Han Li's friend." Xiao Ran said, making it up.
"How come I don't know he had a friend like that?"
"That's not important, what's important is that Han Li asked me to tell you that you must keep his last promise." Xiao Ran indirectly verified his identity.
"Heh heh!" She hated this promise!
"If you encounter any difficulties, you can find me. I will try my best to help. This is what Han Li instructed me to do."
Xiao Ran placed his contact information on the table, then turned and left.
From then on, the two, once a loving couple,
Became strangers!
