Chapter 1125 Possessiveness

"Brother, who is calling?" Jiang Mubai asked softly, with a barely perceptible tremor in his tone.

Jiang Mubai walked to the bedside and looked down at her, his eyes as deep as a bottomless pool of water. "A...partner." He paused, with a barely perceptible warning in his tone, "Mubai, there are some things you shouldn't ask, and you shouldn't know."

Jiang Mubai's heart suddenly sank, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. Her brother's eyes made her feel strange and frightened, as if the person standing in front of her was not the brother who loved her since childhood, but a cold and ruthless stranger.

"Brother, you've changed." Jiang Mubai's voice trembled and tears welled up in his eyes.

Jiang Mubai reached out and gently wiped the tears from her eyes. His movements were gentle, yet they carried a hint of irresistible strength. "Mubai, I just want to protect you."

"Protect me?" Jiang Mubai smiled bitterly, "Is this your way of protecting me? Imprisoning me here and not letting me contact the outside world, not even Cheng Yunchuan..."

"Don't mention him again!" Jiang Mubai interrupted her abruptly, his tone icy cold, "He will only hurt you!"

Jiang Mubai was stunned. She had never seen her brother so angry. She wanted to refute, but she was powerless to do so, because she knew that her brother was right. Cheng Yunchuan had indeed hurt her, time and time again.

"Mubai, be obedient," Jiang Mubai's voice was extremely gentle, with a barely perceptible hint of coaxing in his tone, "I'll arrange everything, you just need to stay here and don't go anywhere."

Jiang Mubai didn't say anything, but just nodded silently. She knew that she had no choice now.

In the next few days, Jiang Mubai stayed by her side and took care of her meticulously. He told her stories, chatted with her, and even cooked for her himself. Jiang Mubai gradually relaxed her vigilance and began to get used to this kind of "protected" life.

However, this peaceful life did not last long.

One night, Jiang Mubai had a nightmare. She dreamed that Cheng Yunchuan was standing in front of her, covered in blood, with empty and desperate eyes, repeating over and over again: "Mubai, save me...save me..."

Jiang Mubai suddenly woke up, her whole body soaked with cold sweat. She looked around, the ward was dark, with only the faint light from the window shining through the curtains.

"Brother..." Jiang Mubai called softly, his voice trembling.

No one responded.

Jiang Mubai's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came over her. She struggled to get out of bed and fumbled to open the door of the ward.

The corridor was empty, with only dim lights flickering, making it look particularly eerie.

"Brother! Where are you?" Jiang Mubai shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the empty corridor, but there was no response.

Suddenly, she heard a faint groan coming from the room at the end of the corridor.

Jiang Mubai's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and she walked cautiously towards the direction where the sound came from.

She pushed open the door, and the scene before her made her freeze in an instant.

Cheng Yunchuan was lying in a pool of blood, his face as pale as paper, his breath weak, and he was dying. Jiang Mubai stood beside him, holding a bloody dagger in his hand...

Jiang Mubai froze in place, his mind was blank. Cheng Yunchuan was lying in a pool of blood, his chest rising and falling violently, and the blood dyed the white hospital gown red, which was shocking. Jiang Mubai stood aside, the dagger in his hand was still dripping with blood, his eyes were sinister and crazy.

"Brother...you...you killed him?" Jiang Mubai's voice was trembling, as if he had crawled out of hell.

Jiang Mubai didn't answer, but turned around slowly, staring at Jiang Mubai with cold eyes, and a weird smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "He deserves to die."

"Why?" Jiang Mubai staggered back, tears blurring her vision.

"Because he wants to take you away," Jiang Mubai approached Jiang Mubai step by step, his tone cold, "I won't allow anyone to take you away from me!"

Jiang Mubai's heart sank to the bottom. She finally understood that her brother was not protecting her, but imprisoning her. His so-called love was just a twisted possessiveness.

"You're crazy!" Jiang Mubai screamed and turned around, trying to escape from this hellish room.

But Jiang Mubai was faster. He grabbed Jiang Mubai's arm and threw her against the wall.

"Ah!" Jiang Mubai cried out in pain. His back hit the wall and he felt a sharp pain.

"Don't even think about going anywhere!" Jiang Mubai clamped her chin, his eyes full of madness, "You can only be mine!"

Jiang Mubai closed her eyes in despair, tears falling silently. She knew she couldn't escape.

Just then, a faint groan broke the silence in the room.

Cheng Yunchuan is not dead yet.

Jiang Mubai suddenly opened his eyes and saw Cheng Yunchuan struggling to get up. His eyes were full of pain and unwillingness, but also a glimmer of hope.

"Mu Bai..." Cheng Yunchuan called her name weakly.

Jiang Mubai's heart trembled suddenly, and an inexplicable power surged in her heart. She couldn't just give up like this, she had to save him!

She suddenly raised her head and bit Jiang Mubai's hand hard.

"Ah!" Jiang Mubai let go of his hand in pain.

Jiang Mubai took the opportunity to break free from his restraints, stumbled to Cheng Yunchuan, and helped him up.

"Yunchuan, how are you?" Jiang Mubai asked anxiously.

Cheng Yunchuan smiled with difficulty, looking at Jiang Mubai tenderly. "I'm fine, as long as you're by my side."

Jiang Mubai covered his injured hand and stared at them viciously. "Don't even think about escaping!"

He rushed forward again, but was blocked by Jiang Mubai.

"Brother, please, let us go!" Jiang Mubai begged, "We just want to be together, isn't this possible?"

Jiang Mubai sneered. "Impossible! You can only be mine!"

He raised the dagger again and stabbed towards Jiang Mubai.

At the critical moment, Cheng Yunchuan suddenly pushed Jiang Mubai away and blocked the knife with his body.

"Yunchuan!" Jiang Mubai screamed in horror.

The dagger pierced deeply into Cheng Yunchuan's chest, blood gushed out, staining Jiang Mubai's clothes red.

Blood was flowing from the corner of Cheng Yunchuan's mouth, but his eyes were still looking at Jiang Mubai tenderly. "Mubai... I love you..."

After saying that, he slowly closed his eyes and fell weakly into Jiang Mubai's arms.

"No! Yunchuan!" Jiang Mubai hugged Cheng Yunchuan's body and cried heartbreakingly.

Jiang Mubai looked at the scene in front of him, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He slowly put down the dagger in his hand, turned around and left the room.

Jiang Mubai held Cheng Yunchuan's body and cried bitterly in the empty room. She didn't know what to do, nor did she know where to go in the future.
