Chapter 157 Just Alive (1)

Xiao Yue turned around and endured a burst of intense pain in his body. He calmly looked at Yue Qian, who was still calm. "Mom, if you still think I'm your son, then please promise me one thing, for I'm still your son."

"What is it?" Yue Qian looked at her son calmly. She felt that she had completely taken control of the conversation. As long as she took a step further, she would win.

Xiao Yue took a deep breath and continued, "I don't want any antidote. If you want to give it to me, you can give it to me, but if you don't want to give it, you can completely not give it to me."

"Then what do you want?" Yue Qian asked coldly, "Do you still want to be with that woman?"

'"Yes, I just want to be with the person I like." Xiao Yue clenched his fists and endured the stinging pain in his body, trying to keep his tone as calm as possible. "I really don't want to marry a woman I don't know at all."

"You will know her, and I will give you time to get along with that woman," Yue Qian did not give Xiao Yue a chance at all.

"Mom, you know the pain of living with someone you don't love. Why do you continue to put this pain on your son? Don't you feel sad?" Xiao Yue frowned and stared at Yue Qian, who was calm and expressionless.

"Not at all. I only know that the rules of the Xiao Clan cannot be broken by me. Your father can leave irresponsibly, but as her wife and mother, I cannot ignore the rules of the Xiao Clan." The most intolerable thing in her life was the mention of her marriage.

Xiao Yue took a deep breath. The pain in his body made him unable to calm down, and this pain was bestowed by the closest person beside him. This made Xiao Yue have no lingering feelings for the Xiao Family.

"Family rules, family rules again," Xiao Yue smiled bitterly. "Why can't I get rid of that family rule? For this family rule, you can poison your son. For the family rule, you can ignore your son's feelings and insist on letting him marry an unfamiliar woman, right?"

'Yes,' Yue Qian replied with her eyes wide open. 'I can do anything to uphold the rules of the family.'

'"Is that so?" Xiao Yue shook his head helplessly. "That means we have nothing to talk about. Since you won't change your mind, then I have nothing to say. If you want to give me this antidote, give it to me. If you don't want to give it to me, I don't want it either. I don't believe I can't handle the pain anymore."

After Xiao Yue finished speaking, he slowly turned around. The pain in his body forced him to move slowly. Xiao Yue walked back to Su Nuo's side, stretched out his hand to hold Su Nuo's hand, and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

"Xiao Yue," Su Nuo shook her head, not wanting to leave. "No, without the antidote, your body will be destroyed by that medicine."

"But we won't agree to my mother's conditions, will we?" Xiao Yue knelt on one knee, panting heavily, and looked up at Su Nuo. "We, we definitely won't separate, will we?"

But, how can I bear to do this? Xiao Yue, it doesn't matter. As long as you're good, it doesn't matter even if I can't be with you anymore. Really, Su Nuo reached out and gently covered Xiao Yue's cheek. Seeing that Xiao Yue's face became even paler because of the pain, the space between his eyebrows tightly knitted together.

Xiao Yue was still kneeling there. He knew how much pain and pain Su Nuo had to endure when she said those words, and he was the culprit who hurt her. This strengthened Xiao Yue's determination to take Su Nuo away. "I won't take that medicine, Su Nuo. I believe that I can survive even without that antidote."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you want to be a phthisical ghost for the rest of your life?" Yue Qian questioned loudly from the side. She did not expect that Xiao Yue would not submit to her at all. He would rather endure the pain brought by the medicine than submit to her.

Xiao Yue could only lie on Su Nuo's leg because of the pain in his body, but he still used all his strength to resist loudly, "So what! That's my choice, I'm willing."

"Xiao Yue, how are you?" Su Nuo saw Xiao Yue lying on his lap, his entire body tensed up, and his breathing was also rapid. "Xiao Yue, how are you? Xiao Yue!"

"I, I'm fine, I'll be fine soon. Su Nuo, no need, don't worry." Xiao Yue panted. He didn't expect that the medicine would actually hurt so much when it attacked.

"Madam!" Su Nuo couldn't bear to watch any longer, her tearful eyes filled with resentment as she stared at Yue Qian, "Madam, tiger poison doesn't eat children, can you really watch your own son suffer so much?"

"Perhaps the pain can make his brain clearer and he knows what he should do." Yue Qian still insisted. She knew that if she gave in to this matter today, she would become a big joke and the Qian Yi Group would not be able to explain it.

The pain in Xiao's body made him groan even though he clenched his teeth, and he no longer had the energy to speak.

'"Xiao Yue," Su Nuo lowered her head to look at the painful Xiao Yue, her tears dripping uncontrollably.

At this moment, Su Nuo hoped that Xiao Yue could give her a response and tell her what to do.

Xiao Yue also knew that he could not just lie on the ground and not speak. Xiao Yue took a few deep breaths before he could reluctantly let go of his teeth and said, "Su Nuo, don't be afraid. I, I'm fine. Don't, don't listen to me. Listen to my mother. I, I'm fine."

'"Xiao Yue," Yue Qian said again, "as long as you promise me to stay and participate in the engagement, I'll give you the antidote. How about it? I'm already giving in, right?"

"No! I don't want it! I don't want to get engaged!" Xiao Yue looked up at Su Nuo with difficulty. The pain had already made his head full of sweat, and even his line of sight became blurry. "As long as he could be with the person he liked, it didn't matter even if he could only live for a day. I won't let my Su Nuo get hurt again, absolutely not!"

"Enough, Xiao Yue, stop talking," Su Nuo saw that Xiao Yue was sweating profusely because of the pain. Her face was deathly pale, and there was an indescribable pain in her heart. "I won't let you die!"

"Madam! I promise! I will never see Xiao Yue again in my life! Please give the antidote to Xiao Yue immediately! I beg you!" Su Nuo cried and said the last thing she wanted to say. Her heartache made it impossible for her to face anyone in this room.

After saying those words, Su Nuo broke free from Xiao Yue's arms and rushed out of the living room without looking back.
