Chapter 358: 358: No One Can Help Me_1
“Miss Jian, what’s wrong with you?” Aunt Li asked, noting that her face looked off and expressing concern.
“I’m fine!” Jian Yufei let go of her hand and turned around to run away.
Aunt Li was stunned for a moment, then hurried to catch up with her, “Miss Jian, wait for me, don’t run too fast.”
Jian Yufei ran quite a distance before stopping to catch her breath, hugging a large tree.
Aunt Li came puffing up behind her, then latched onto her, asking in puzzlement, “Why did you run?”
Jian Yufei turned slightly, and Aunt Li was shocked to see that she was actually crying.
“Aunt Li, what should I do, what should I do….” Jian Yufei asked helplessly, a look of fear on her face.
“What’s wrong? Miss Jian, don’t scare me, what’s wrong?”
Jian Yufei just shook her head in agony, but said nothing. No matter how much Aunt Li asked, she would not explain.
Aunt Li, quite frantic, called Ruan Tianling.
When Ruan Tianling arrived, Jian Yufei was sitting by the flowerbed at the edge of the sidewalk, her legs together, her hands around her knees, her head down.
Aunt Li stepped away, leaving them some space.
Ruan Tianling came to her side and stood in front of her, “Aunt Li said you’re not in a good mood, what happened?”
Jian Yufei kept her head down without responding.
Ruan Tianling could feel her helplessness and sadness, so he slowly squatted down and asked her softly, “What’s wrong? Tell me, I’ll help you.”
“You can’t solve it, no one can help me.” Jian Yufei shook her head, her voice full of pain.
“There is nothing I cannot solve. Just tell me, what happened to you?” Ruan Tianling’s voice was still as gentle. He found his tolerance for this woman was growing.
Jian Yufei lifted her head slightly, her eyes a bit vacant, “There’s nothing wrong with me, the problem is me.”
The man furrowed his brows, what did she mean?
“Ruan Tianling, what do you think people are living for? Why do we need to live?”
Ruan Tianling’s brows deepened, his eyes focused on her, “Do you have trouble that you can’t let go of?”
Jian Yufei looked at him, her gaze becoming a bit more focused.
From the looks of her, he guessed he was halfway right, “What’s troubling you?”
Jian Yufei pursed her lips without a word, got up, and said lightly: “I’m fine now, I want to go home and rest.”
Ruan Tianling stood up, his gaze complex as he watched her.
He didn’t push her further. Instead, he let her and Aunt Li get into his car, then drove them home.
As soon as Jian Yufei got back to the villa, she headed straight upstairs.
Ruan Tianling didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he called over Aunt Li and asked, “What has she been doing these days? Did she act out of the ordinary? Or did she meet up with anyone?”
Aunt Li had already figured out what to say, “Ever since she came back from the hospital, Miss Jian has not been herself.
One night she slept in the living room all night and didn’t go back to her room. These days, she’s also always following me around, as if she is afraid to be alone.”
