Who would have known that while she was halfway through her ride, she would encounter Li Zijue in a small alley, stabbed in the abdomen.
The man was currently clutching the area around his stomach, running clumsily through the alley. His handsome face, pale due to excessive blood loss, had eyebrows tightly furrowed; despite being covered in blood, the man hadn't made a sound but kept on running forward.
"Uncle?" The moment Tong Mo saw him, she abruptly tightened the brakes, her clear eyes filled with shock as she stared at the bloodied man.
What happened for him to be covered in blood?
"Tong...Mo..."
The man also saw her. His thin lips moved slightly; he had just uttered her name when he collapsed to the ground.
If one looked closely, they could see a trace of a smile in his eyes as he fell.
How nice.
That he could see her one more time before death.
Just a few minutes ago, he was thinking he probably wouldn't have the chance to meet her again in this lifetime.
"Uncle!?"
