Chapter 71: Comparison

Jiang Zhi stared at the familiar face in a daze.

In her past life and this life, apart from her mother, Lu Mian was the only person who treated her well.

If she lost him...

Jiang Zhi could not tell whether she was acting in or out of character for a moment. She slowly raised her hand to cover his wound. Her movements were very gentle, as if she was afraid of hurting him.

She tried her best to remain calm, but her hands were trembling. Her smile brought even more sorrow than one would feel if she were to cry instead. "Are you kidding me? You speak as if you are leaving me... I, I will take you to the Doctor!"

She tried her best to help the man up, as if she wanted to carry him on her back.

However, she was only a weak princess. Lu Mian's tall body slid down from her back several times and fell heavily on the grassland.

The depression of despair, together with the darkness, slowly covered the grassland at dusk.

Lu Mian watched her futile movements with almost gentle eyes and hugged her waist. "I've already released the signal flare. Someone will come to pick us up.

"We'll wait here.

"Sing me a song, Nan Nan. I want to rest for a while."

Jiang Zhi froze. She could not see his expression in the darkness, but she could feel his breathing getting weaker.

Even if she tried her best, she could not catch him. His life was slipping away between her fingers.

She had lost everything and had nowhere to run.

He said that he wanted to hear her sing.

In the silence, she hummed a tune from their childhood. When the wind blew, she crawled into the man's cold and stiff arms as if she was afraid of the cold and slowly closed her eyes.

"Go to sleep, I'll accompany you."

"When the reinforcements arrive, I'll wake you up... you must wake up. You have to keep your word, you can't stay asleep."

..

The wind blew in the grassland.

Director Zheng held his breath in front of the monitor. A few girls from the makeup team looked at Jiang Zhi. Affected by her emotions, they could not help but tear up. They bit their fingers and sobbed softly.

Jiang Zhi's performance was not one of screaming grief, but of tension-filled despair.

"Cut! Cut! Perfect!"

Director Zheng could not suppress his admiration. He turned to look at Jiang Lu's eyes filled with jealousy and hatred and shook his head in disappointment.

The crew burst into thunderous applause. The staff members were all immersed in the sad atmosphere and could not quite come back just yet.

Jiang Zhi hugged Lu Mian until she heard the applause, but she still did not pull herself away from the scene.

Lu Mian opened his blue eyes and smiled faintly. He wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said in an intimate and natural tone, "Don't cry. Your tears are very precious."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Zhi slapped his fingers away, and she felt a stifling pain in her heart.

In that instant, she suddenly realized her feelings for Lu Mian.

It turned out that she had already fallen in love with Lu Mian, so she did not want to lose him!
