Chapter 163: Rescue and Rebirth

Xia Zhi, terrified, emerged from the embrace of the newcomer; in her tearful state, she still saw that face that filled her with resentment. Trembling, she raised her hand and delivered a slap to his face, hysterically shouting, "He Jinhong, don't you fucking touch me!"

He Jinxing, his cheek stinging from the slap, looked at her as she continually backed away in fear. His heart felt heavy. Lowering his hand, he gently said to her, "Xiao Zhi, it's me, look closely, I'm not He Jinhong."

"Get away from me! Don't come any closer!" Xia Zhi held her ears with both hands, bowing her head to avoid looking at him.

"I'm not coming closer; I'm just standing here." He Jinxing stood up from beside the bed and took a few steps back. "Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi, I am He Jinxing, take a closer look."

"I don't want to! Get lost!" Xia Zhi gasped for breath, her breathing rapid and shallow.

Suddenly, her body weakened, and she collapsed.
