"The year she graduated, her parents both died in a ruthless car accident. She was forced to live under another's roof, but her life was even worse than a servant's. That night, she was imprisoned in a warehouse, and the thin quilt could no longer cover her cold heart. Her cousin and aunt sent a man to destroy her innocence. After she escaped by luck, she was sold to an old man as his lover. However, at midnight every midnight, a man was whispering in her ear."
It was almost autumn. Many people in academic dress gathered under the phoenix tree in the campus. They stood in a row with a smile on their faces.
"1, 2, 3 smile!"
A neat order made everyone cheer up and throw the scholar's cap far away in the air.
As soon as the voice sounded, there was also a burst of noise not far away.
"Bella, something bad happened. Your parents had a car accident!"
The figure in front of her disturbed her sight. When she heard the news, she couldn't believe it was true.
Before she could take off her academic dress, she followed the man and walked out of the campus in a hurry.
Outside the emergency room of the municipal hospital, she was restless. Although the temperature was not low now, the chair she sat in was getting colder and colder.
Seeing her like this, the people by her side also felt bad. He held her hand and comforted, "Bella, I'm sorry to let you hear this news."
He, Sean Li, was the schoolmate of Bella Ling. He was handsome and smart. He was widely acknowledged as the school hunk in the campus. But Bella Ling felt something was missing.
Perhaps it was because he didn't have the sense of security she wanted. Since she was a child of the Ling family, she had been loved by her parents.
She didn't know much about the outside world, especially love.
It was annoying that if someone she didn't like came to pester her, she thought. However, at this critical moment, no matter how much she didn't like him, she couldn't do anything about it.
At this time, what she needed most was to be accompanied by someone, which would be the greatest encouragement.
"It's okay."
Anyone who heard the news would be scared to death, not to mention her, who just graduated from university.
Leaning on his shoulder, Bella felt the temperature of his for the first time. She had never thought that his shoulder could be so comfortable.
Perhaps it was because she was too tired that Bella Ling fell asleep soon...
After a long time, the red light above the emergency room went out and several medical staff came out.
Before he could say anything, the person in his arms had woken up and rushed over, "Doctor, how are my parents?"
She grabbed the man's arm tightly with great strength, in fact, it was a sign of fear.
However, the doctor just took off his mask unhurriedly and shook his head helplessly.
At the same time, two beds were pushed out of the emergency room. She didn't understand why they covered her parents with white cloth.
She pounced on them madly, and Bella Ling couldn't help but feel painful.
"Dad, Mom, how can you leave me like this?"
Tears streamed down her cheeks, she didn't care about the people behind her.
"I'm sorry, Miss. We have to send the body to the morgue."
Knowing her pain, the medical staff's voice became feeble. They didn't have the heart to disturb her.
But what they said irritated her more!
"No way! I will never let them lie in that cold and wet place!"
She pushed away the man behind her with great strength. She didn't even notice it herself.
At this moment, she seemed to fall from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley, helplessly waiting for someone to rescue her.
"Bella, listen to the doctor. We have to complete the formalities before we can pick up your parents."
Seeing this, Sean Li didn't know how to comfort her. This was the only thing he could do for the girl he had loved for a long time.
