Chapter 360 

I worked hard every day. I scoured the internet for medical journals and consulted specialists on various platforms. 

Yet life was often very cruel. Not all hard work would pay off. 

A surprising turn of events could lead to disastrous results. 

That day, I was queuing up at the cafeteria to get my lunch. I then heard people saying that someone was trying to jump off the building in the neighborhood across the campus. A lot of students in the queue went to check out the scene. 

My heart began pounding erratically. Fear seized me. 

I grabbed a student rushing there and asked what happened. He told me that he didn’t have the details either. He only asked me to check the school’s forum. 

I opened my phone frantically. There were a lot of comments on the forum thread. There was a photo on the pinned comment, the content of which almost made me faint. 

I had no time to think. Despite my fear, I ran as fast as I could. Howling wind traveled to my 

ears. 

I had never run as fast as I was running now. I surpassed the nosy on–lookers, disregarded the traffic light, and made a beeline for the scene. 

When I arrived, the whole area was cordoned off. Several young officers were busy inflating the cushion. The man in the photo, Felix, was on the ledge on the sixth floor. The wind picked up his black shirt, and his hair swayed with the breeze. 

I was shaken to the core. I yelled, “Felix, what are you doing? Go back inside” while charging toward the staircase. 

Another young policeman stopped me. Teary–eyed, I told him that Felix was my relative and 

I wanted to save him. 

I did mean it when I said I wanted to save him. Be it the inability to walk or blindness, as long as he lived, there was still hope. 

But if he died, he would leave everyone with an abandoned puzzle. A puzzle that could not be solved. Colin and I would never be happy. 

The policeman was very kind. He saw how earnest I was and escorted me to the sixth floor.

The door was wide open. The guards monitoring the entrance communicated with the police officer and let me in. 

Colin stood tall in the middle of the living room. He was a mess. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked out of wits, bordering on a mental breakdown. Still, he suppressed his 

emotions and asked Felix to get down and talk it out gently. 

Felix was his only brother. He had to be in so much pain now. 

But Felix was manic. He only kept repeating, “Leave! Let me die!” 

It was a windy day. At this altitude, the wind was even stronger. Felix’s leg that dangled over the edge swayed in the wind. Every time his pant leg fluttered, my heart leaped. 

He would die if he jumped from the sixth floor. 

I could only stand on the sideline, too afraid to make a sound. Looking at Felix, who was inches away from death, I feared that my voice would trigger him. It might cause a tragedy with irreversible results. 

Colin noticed me and shook his head, cautioning me not to speak. 

But the moment he turned his head, I saw the pain, misery, and powerlessness in his eyes. It stayed in my mind. 

I thought I had already grown numb, but my heart felt like someone just stabbed a knife into it. Pain emanated from my chest and coursed through my body. 

Colin was facing a dilemma. On one hand, it was the love of his life. On the other hand, it was his younger brother. Giving up either one of them would cause irreparable damage to his soul. 

How was he supposed to choose?
