Chapter 291 describes her inner desolation; when she suffers setbacks, she sees no hope.The long-haired man, Jiang Luochuan, awkwardly turned to the two of them and forced a very weak smile: "Haha, what a coincidence, Sister Pei, Brother Chu."Pei Hening took a step forward, looked at Jiang Luochuan who was dressed neatly and looked presentable, and sneered: "Don't even think about it, we can't accept being called'sister' or 'brother'."Speaking of Jiang Luochuan, we must mention another friend of Pei Hening, Lu Yu, who won the gold medal at the Varna Ballet Competition when she was young and became the principal dancer of a national ballet troupe at the age of 22.Jiang Luochuan is Lu Yu's cousin. He went to study in England at the age of nineteen, where he met all sorts of people and made a bunch of bad friends. They drank, fought, raced cars...On one occasion, he drank alcohol in the first half of the night and then drove recklessly through the streets in the second half, veering off the road and crashing into a closed-down shop. He was seriously injured and even suffered acute liver failure due to excessive drinking.At that time, Jiang Luochuan held Lu Yu's hand, who was preparing for an international tour, and pleaded with tears in his eyes: "Sister, you are my cousin, you must save me, I don't want to die."Ultimately, Lu Yu donated part of her liver to him. After the surgery, her physical strength declined, and even with the care of a top-notch rehabilitation team, she could no longer perform ultra-high jumps with extremely high intensity techniques, such as the Black Swan Thirty-Two Whip Turns...Later, Lu Yu left a suicide note and died.In her suicide note, she said she didn't blame Jiang Luochuan; it was her own inability to reconcile her feelings. She couldn't ignore Jiang Luochuan's death, nor could she calmly accept that she could no longer perform high-intensity dance moves.Lu Yu was born for dance.It wasn't that she was waiting for an opportunity, but rather that the opportunity was waiting for her to grow up, waiting for her to have the strength to lift the crown that symbolized glory.Therefore, for her, failing to reach the ultimate level was like a steel needle stuck in her heart, and every failed attempt accelerated her decline.Pei Hening couldn't help but blame him; if it weren't for his drunken recklessness, Lu Yu wouldn't have been in trouble!Jiang Luochuan twitched the corners of his mouth. He didn't know how to face Pei Hening. Seeing her reminded him of his cousin who used to play with her when they were young.Jiang Luochuan hid the beaded string in his sleeve, lowered his head, and called out again, "Sister Pei."Pei Hening's gaze fell on his hidden hands, and she asked, "What are you holding in your hands?"Jiang Luochuan tried to stuff the beaded string into his pocket, then laughed awkwardly, "It's nothing."Chu Xuange quickly grabbed his hand, pulled down his sleeve, and the string of small sandalwood beads was revealed.Pei Hening's face darkened completely after she saw the small sandalwood beads clearly. She snatched the beads from her and sneered, "Jiang Luochuan, you're such a waste. Are you afraid that Lu Yu will come after you in your dreams at night?"Pei Hening recognized the string of beads. After Lu Yu committed suicide, Jiang Luochuan had nightmares every day. His grandfather specially found a master to bless it for him, saying that wearing it would bring him peace.Is Jiang Luochuan still not safe?Lu Yu is dead, but he is still alive and well!Upon hearing this, Jiang Luochuan's face turned pale, then dark, then green. He protested, "No, I didn't mean that. I just consider it a keepsake left to me by my grandfather."Pei Hening found it laughable that Lu Yu had gone from being Jiang Luochuan's savior to a villain he needed to be wary of in just two short years.She feigned doubt and asked, "Really?"Jiang Luochuan thought she believed him, breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled, "It must be true."Pei Hening originally wanted to break the string of small sandalwood beads, but seeing Jiang Luochuan's relieved expression, she felt disgusted and lost interest. She threw the beads at him and said, "Get out of here. Before I change my mind, take your 'thoughts' and get out of here."Jiang Luochuan caught the string of beads she threw at him with lightning speed and put it on his wrist with reverence: "Okay, I'm leaving now."After he finished speaking, he turned and left, seemingly not even going to eat.Chu Xuange put his arm around her shoulder and narrowed his eyes as he watched Jiang Luochuan's departing figure: "Baby, let's eat first.""good."The two entered the VIP room.The private room continues the design style of the igloo, making the most of light and shadow, with light blue elegant curtains hanging next to the large floor-to-ceiling windows.There were only two egg-shaped chairs next to the square dining table, with light blue cushions on them.A faint fragrance lingered in the air."Baby, wait for me a moment, I'm going to get some more food."Pei Hening was observing the snow-covered buildings that were completely visible outside the VIP box: "Okay, hurry up."——Jiang Luochuan.Upon hearing this, Jiang Luochuan turned his head, only to be met with a fist the size of a sandbag that slammed into his nose, instantly breaking the bridge of his nose and causing it to bleed."grass!"Jiang Luochuan grabbed the fist that the other party was about to retract and was about to counterattack when the other party elbowed him in the jaw.The man, still not satisfied, threw him over his shoulder."thump--"Chu Xuange stepped forward and kicked him twice viciously, warning him in a low voice, "Stay away from us next time you see us."Jiang Luochuan's blurry vision focused on Chu Xuange's cold and ruthless eyes, and he subconsciously shivered.Jiang Luochuan belatedly realized the pain on his face and body, and grimaced, saying, "Brother Chu, you didn't have to beat me up, did you?"Chu Xuange looked down at Jiang Luochuan, who was lying on the ground with a twisted and ferocious expression, and his gaze fell on the small sandalwood beads on his wrist."Do you know why, after Lu Yu committed suicide, none of her friends, including your sister Pei, tried to kill you?"Jiang Luochuan's face stiffened; of course he knew!Lu Yu's friends all believed that he was the one who killed her, and that Lu Yu would not have committed suicide if it weren't for him.The only reason they didn't kill him was because he had Lu Yu's liver inside him; Lu Yu had saved his life.Jiang Luochuan was initially grateful to Lu Yu, but that gratitude was worn away by mentioning Lu Yu's sacrifice day after day.Chu Xuange sneered: "If Lu Yu knew that you were such a heartless and ungrateful person, he would probably be so angry that he would lift the coffin lid and chop you into mincemeat."A clear, crisp female voice rang out: "Not so merciful."Chu Xuange turned his head sharply and saw that Pei Hening had followed him at some point and was now standing quietly behind him, arms crossed, looking at Jiang Luochuan who was lying on the ground like a dead dog."GeGe, didn't we say we'd add more dishes? Let's go."Chu Xuange grunted in agreement and warned Jiang Luochuan before leaving, "Don't show up in front of us again and ruin our mood, or I'll beat you every time I see you."Jiang Luochuan clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into his palms. He hated Lu Yu more and more. If he had known this would happen, he would have preferred Lu Yu to have died in that car accident!It's clear that Lu Yu's heart was barren, and she couldn't see any hope when she encountered setbacks. Choosing suicide was her compromise with fate. Why should he have to bear all of this?He also found her a top-notch rehabilitation team and helped her with career planning.Even without pushing her limits in technique, she can still become a stylistic dancer through emotional expression and graceful movements.He even tried to stop her from committing suicide, but he couldn't keep someone who had no attachment to this world. What could he do?You can't blame him!
