affectionate

Suddenly, Xi Haitang's face changed, and all blood disappeared in a second.

The name Rou'er was an extremely important symbol in the nightmare of her life. She would never forget how the man who wreaked havoc on her that night called this name again and again, seemingly affectionately, seemingly tenderly, and seemingly

It's the reluctance to get it, and it seems to be the relief after getting it... This so gentle and delicate name is like a sharp sword, inflicting another invisible pain on her already ruined body, making her

It hurt her heart. She was strongly warned that she was a substitute, she was not Rou'er, she had nothing to do with Rou'er, but she endured such pain! From now on, she will never be restored!

She looked at Gu Xijue with confusion in her eyes, "Rou, who is Rou'er?!"

Gu Xijue felt cold and tried his best to stay calm. He didn't know if he could deceive her this time. His heart was hanging on the edge of the cliff...

"Rou'er... is my sister-in-law."

"Gu Xichao's wife?!"

"right."

Xi Haitang was startled again. She felt that her thoughts were very confused, and she vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't think of anything wrong. "Well... what's her name?"

"Jian Yirou."

"Oh." Maybe she is too sensitive. There are so many people who look alike in the world, not to mention they have the same and similar names.

The phone continued to ring, and Xi Haitang slowly handed the phone to Gu Xijue.

He pressed the answer button anxiously, "Hello..." This time, he did not dare to call Rou'er's name.

"Brother Jue..." There was a crying voice on the other end of the phone, "Have you found Brother Chao?"

"Not yet." None of the people sent out responded. It seemed that Gu Xichao was hiding on purpose.

"Brother Jue, where are you now? Can you come to the hospital to stay with me? I'm so scared to be alone..."

Gu Xijue sighed softly, why is Rou'er always like this? She always relies on him to help her solve anything. It was like this before, and it is still like this now. He really feels very tired, very tired...

"Brother Jue, why don't you say anything? Can't you come?"

"I'm taking an injection."

"If you don't want to, forget it. There's no need to lie and deceive!" Rou'er didn't believe him and hung up the phone directly.

Gu Xijue looked at her phone, feeling depressed. She looked up at Xi Haitang, her eyes full of doubts, "What happened?"

"Gu Xichao has disappeared. Rou'er is now alone in the hospital. The doctor said that the baby in her belly is not developing well and there is a possibility of premature birth at any time."

"Then...then she called you because she was scared alone?"

He was stunned for a moment and nodded stiffly, so be it.

Xi Haitang's heart tensed up for a moment. She saw Gu Xijue's embarrassment, "Actually...you want to go, right?"

"Begonia, I..."

"You don't need to explain. I understand that she is your sister-in-law and she is pregnant. It is normal for you to be worried." Xi Haitang didn't think much about it at all, because when she heard that Rou'er was pregnant alone in the hospital,

After that, she couldn't stand it anymore. She suddenly thought of her old self. There was no one around her. She was so lonely and scared. She knew the horror of that feeling better than anyone else. She knew that feeling better than anyone else.

pain!

Looking at the medicine bottles on the IV stand, the second vial was almost finished, and only the last one was left. Xi Haitang made a decisive decision -

"Let me go to the hospital with you!"

"What?!" Gu Xijue was stunned and couldn't believe what he heard.

She repeated again, "I will accompany you to the hospital. You can't take out the needle like this, and you can't drive. Ask the driver to take us there, and I will help you get the IV bottle."

"Begonia..."

"You don't want to go?"

"No... I just... I just don't understand... Don't you think it's bad for me to see other women so late?!"

"What other woman? Isn't she your sister-in-law?" Her frankness made Gu Xijue feel ashamed.

In the car, Xi Haitang helped Gu Xijue hold the IV bottle. Although the bottle was small, it required her hands to be raised high all the time, which was also very hard. She alternated between her left and right hands from time to time.

"Haitang, I can just hold it myself."

"No, don't move. It would be bad if you roll the needle. I'm not a nurse, and I won't re-insert the needle. Your bottle of medicine will be wasted, and your illness will be delayed!" She said while checking the back of his hand.

There are no strange bulges where the tape is attached, which means everything is normal, and the flow rate in the dropper is also normal, 45 times a minute, exactly the same.

Seeing her caring look, Gu Xijue couldn't help but be moved and gently held her hand.

Xi Haitang was startled and raised her eyes to meet his, "Why are you looking at me like that?!"

"It's nothing, I just think you are so beautiful, like an angel."

"What... I just feel the same way." Her eyes dimmed slightly, and her voice was heavy, "You know, I was alone when I was pregnant. Although Su Xin often stayed with me, but

As soon as she left, the room became empty and eerily quiet... I read in a book that expectant mothers should talk to more people and communicate more, so that the babies born would be lively and cute, but I couldn't find it.

When people are talking, they just talk to themselves... imitating lines from movies, or pretending to go to the market to buy things and bargaining with the boss, or sometimes imagining themselves standing on the street holding flyers and advertising.

, I said the slogan again every time I posted one... I kept talking, saying to myself and the baby, the room was so quiet, so quiet that there was even an echo of my words... I will never forget that feeling in my life...

…That kind of feeling can drive people crazy…”

In the sealed carriage, her voice was low and choked, and her tears flowed silently in her heart. They were cold and hit Gu Xijue's heart heavily.

"Haitang..." He suddenly hugged her and used all the strength in his life.

"Your hand..." She was shocked and wanted to see his intravenous needle, but he pulled off the intravenous drip tube, and she held it tightly in her arms and refused to let go.

He lowered his head and bit her lips hard. The hair on his forehead was soaked with sweat. She only saw his expression, which was so heartbreaking that it set the tone for her lifelong love journey.

"In this world, we can have both peace and prosperity. If we live up to the Tathagata, we will not live up to you..."
