The new medicine Bai Ye developed worked well, extending the lifespan of the artificial heart. Kaka's condition was basically the same as before; in most cases, he was indistinguishable from a normal person. If no one knew that an artificial heart had been implanted in his body, it would remain a secret.

However, because this medicine was new and its compatibility with Kaka's body hadn't been fully confirmed yet, there were concerns about potential rejection reactions. As such, Kaka needed to take anti-rejection medication every year to maintain the function of his heart.

If no severe rejection symptoms occurred, Bai Ye planned for everything to return to normal in about a month.

Chu Li and Rong Yan were extremely worried, unable to sleep at night, deeply afraid that Kaka's health might deteriorate beyond repair.

Kaka knew that Wu Shuang had already returned.

He also knew that Wu Shuang was aware of his illness. For several days after he woke up, Wu Shuang didn't come to see him. Kaka patiently waited because he realized that everything would eventually be exposed.

There were some things that he should honestly tell Wu Shuang.

If it were possible, he wished Wu Shuang would never find out about his condition. He thought he could keep it a secret, but in the end, he had overestimated himself.

On the fourth morning after he woke up, when Kaka opened his eyes, he saw Wu Shuang sitting by the bedside. Due to the medication, he had been sleeping very deeply recently and didn't feel Wu Shuang's presence upon entering.

Wu Shuang seemed rather unwell; she forced a smile upon seeing him awake. "Feeling better"

Kaka got up and nodded with a bitter smile, "You finally decided to see me."

"I didn't mean to avoid you," Wu Shuang said, feeling a dull ache in her heart. She hoped to see Kaka full of vigor and spirit as he used to be, rather than the sickly Kaka she was seeing now.

"Why tell me" Wu Shuang asked, slightly agitated. Narrowing her eyes, she continued, "Why didn't you tell me earlier If I had known sooner, these many years wouldn't have..."

... been wasted in this way.

"I don't want to die," Kaka said, answering off the question. Wu Shuang's heart was filled with countless questions that were washed away by his simple statement of not wanting to die. Clearly, what had happened in the past no longer mattered.

Yes, he didn’t want to die.

People like them faced death without a change of expression; they never feared it. But fearing death and wanting to live were two different things. She wasn't afraid of dying, but she certainly did not want to.

She had so many unfinished matters in her heart, tasks left undone. How could she bear to give up her life No way, she couldn’t.

The two fell silent again. Kaka looked at Wu Shuang's cold profile and felt a bitter pain in his heart. His chest also began to hurt slightly; he instinctively raised his hand to cover the spot, trying to alleviate this sudden pain.

For so many years, he had quietly endured these internal pains.

"Does it hurt very much" she asked calmly.

Kaka instinctively wanted to shake his head but finally nodded. It did hurt a lot.

Wu Shuang suddenly understood the ruthlessness of Kaka's actions over these years, all for him telling one truthful sentence. Did it have to be so difficult just for a sincere statement Why only now, when everything was at stake, did he admit that he was in pain

He suddenly grabbed Wu Shuang's hand, pulling her into his embrace. "Wu Shuang, please don't be like this, I beg you, don't be like this."

Her indifference was the cruelest torment to him.

"Isn't that exactly what you wanted" Wu Shuang said with a cold smile, her mouth unrestrained but her body obediently lying against his chest. She yearned so much for permanent reliance on his embrace.

Kaka held onto her tightly, using all the strength in his arms.

"I didn't mean it, I truly didn't," Kaka explained, "I don't even know how long I can live myself; how could I give you a promise If I were to leave, how would you endure the long nights alone I dare not make promises and I won’t let you get any deeper into this. Wu Shuang, Wu Shuang..."

Wu Shuang was furious and raised her hand to strike him. When she lashed out in anger, she never cared; however, now she thought about his well-being. "Since you're not willing to give me a promise, why do you still provoke me Why don't you stay far away from me Why only consider yourself and not care if I like it or not I hate you, I hate you, I hate you..."

She hit his shoulders with her hand, tears streaming down her face. She hardened her heart, biting fiercely on his shoulder as a form of revenge, as though she wanted to release the grievances of the past decade through her bites.

His grievances, her grievances...

She always thought that she was the most wronged one, having devotedly loved him for over ten years without regret. She relentlessly pursued him, sacrificing a decade of her youth. What about 'gold cities' and 'tough rocks' They were all false. Kaka didn't want to respond to her, not even in the slightest; she had felt despair and resentment at his lack of love.

She always took what she wanted without allowing him to refuse. She was unaware that her approach hastened his death and didn’t realize that each time she kissed or caressed him whimsically, he endured intense pain while trying not to show it, pretending everything was normal with her. Over the years of sharing a bed countless times, she knew his body better than anyone else's, yet she never knew about all the surgeries on his chest and how imperfect his heart truly was.

She had so completely ignored his health.

Kaka, in wanting to possess this man with every intention, forgot to offer him basic care. All these years, besides hastening his cardiac failure, what exactly had she been doing

He could also bear to not remind her.

If she doesn't want to die...

Then she should have reminded her.

Wu Shuang felt terrible, it was the first time in her life that she felt this way. Thinking about Kaka's suffering over these past dozen years made her even more miserable.

"Wu Shuang, don't cry..." Kaka tightly embraced her, holding her so closely that he ignored the sharp pain on his shoulder where she had bitten him. She was usually a ruthless woman, and this bite must have hurt terribly.

But it didn't matter to him.

He just wanted her not to cry.

Hearing her sobs made his heart shatter.

"I'm sorry..." Wu Shuang choked out, rubbing her head against his chest and sobbing uncontrollably. She repeatedly said "Sorry" as she felt guilty for the past dozen years when she had been overly domineering in her love for him, causing him so much pain.

She thought that throughout all these years, she was the one who loved him most and also the person who made him suffer the most.

Kaka, I'm sorry.

She had once said that in her life, she hated the words "I'm sorry" more than anything else, and if anyone dared to say them to her, she would beat them up. But today, she was saying these powerless words to him, expressing the deepest sorrow of her heart., her heart pounding as she nervously watched Mo Baixue. "What do you mean Has something happened to Fei Mo""Little Auntie, you haven't answered me yet," Mo Baixue asked cutely, looking like a child d...
