"Will saving you… make you love me?" he answered in a weak voice. "If so… then I would gladly do it without batting an eye."
Zhuo Jingren's words truly touched Lily. Unable to control herself, Lily burst into tears. She bit her lip and felt the muscles in her chin tremble. "Stupid."
"Why are you crying?" he asked. "I'm not going to die… I mean… I still want to marry you… so don't worry too much about it."
"How could you still say something like this when you are in this state?" Lily asked, her pearl shaped tears silently rolling down her cheeks. "You really should stop loving someone like me… I can't give you anything more which you don't already have," she said. "People who are close to my heart end up dying."
"I am not just some people…" he answered before letting out a long sigh. "So can't you give me a chance?"
"Lily, what secret are you hiding?" he asked. "I think you should tell me… at least, before I bleed out and die."
