"She didn't mention you when she woke up. She kept asking when He Jianchen would come."
One sentence can send a person into the abyss of eternal destruction. After hanging up the phone, Su Yuheng was drowning in sadness. He stood there holding the phone, the remaining brilliance in his eyes disappeared. The gradually increasing gasp made him feel distressed. He held his hand and held his hand.
He stumbled a few steps, and the phone fell from his trembling hands to the ground.
Su Yuheng bent over and fell to the ground. His vision went dark. He could neither see nor hear anything. He contracted his body, feeling the painful suffocation alone?
Just two hours ago, he was excited to receive a call from Zhao Zimu. When making Yangchun noodles, he was worried that because he hadn't made Yangchun noodles for a while, the noodles he made would not meet her expectations.
When he was making Yangchun noodles for her, his hands were trembling. He never thought that making a bowl of noodles for her would make him so excited.
He thought she remembered him.
He thought she would give him another chance.
However, everything was just his wishful thinking, and she didn't think of him at all.
Su Yuheng got up from the ground and walked to the basement with messy steps. He came to the wine cabinet and poured red wine into his mouth. The bright red wine juice flowed from the corners of his mouth, and the white shirt on his chest was dyed red.
The wine mixed with tears went down his throat. Su Yuheng just wanted to get drunk quickly. It wouldn't be so difficult when he was drunk.
In the dark basement, Su Yuheng was sitting on the floor, surrounded by wine bottles. He looked blankly at the opposite wall. Hanging on the wall was the wedding photo of him and Gu Nianxi. This photo was her favorite.
, she said she liked the way he only saw her, and she said he looked very nice when he smiled in this picture.
He thought back over the years they had been together, and he blamed himself again.
Why didn't he be nice to her in the first place?
Why didn't he handle the conflict well when we were together?
"Gu Nianxi..." Su Yuheng stared at the photo and called her name with tears in his eyes, "Why don't you give me a chance...I said I will work hard to get better...I will be nice to you.
…”
Su Yuheng was devoured by sadness, and he was tortured by depression to the point of not wanting to live. He blamed himself over and over again and hoped that he would die happily on that day.
…………
When Gu Nianxi woke up, the first thing she saw was He Jianchen. He held his chin with both hands and stared at her intently. When he saw her eyes open, her eyes lit up and the corners of her mouth slightly raised. His smile healed Gu Nianxi's awakening.
The uneasiness of the time.
"Are you awake?" He Jianchen pulled up his chair and moved closer to Gu Nianxi, "How are you?"
Seeing He Jianchen, Gu Nianxi burst into tears. He was so frightened that He Jianchen was at a loss. He quickly touched her face and wiped away her tears.
"What's wrong?" He Jianchen asked.
"It hurts...my arm hurts so much."
No one could replace her pain. He Jianchen pressed his lips to her forehead and coaxed her softly, "It won't hurt tomorrow. Just bear with it."
"What time is it now?" Gu Nianxi asked with tears in her eyes.
He Jianchen looked at his watch and said, "Twelve o'clock."
"It's only twelve o'clock." Gu Nianxi asked in a soft voice, "Will it really not hurt tomorrow?"
"Well, when have I ever lied to you?" He Jianchen smiled and said to her, "I don't believe what the doctor said either."
Gu Nianxi glanced at He Jianchen, cried and said, "Who knows whether you lied to me or not."
He Jianchen's expression froze and he said seriously: "I won't lie to you."
Seeing that he was too serious, Gu Nianxi touched his face and said, "I was joking with you."
He Jianchen smiled, touched her forehead, and kissed the tip of her nose, "I know, just sleep a little longer and it won't hurt anymore tomorrow."
"Yeah." Gu Nianxi closed her eyes and then opened them again, "Then where do you sleep?"
"I'll be here with you, be good and go to sleep."
"Dr. He...I want to hear a story."
He Jianchen was a little surprised when he heard her make this request.
Gu Nianxi smiled and said, "I remember you used to read "The Little Prince" to me. I'm curious why you only read this story to me."
He Jianchen looked at Gu Nianxi affectionately, thought for a while, and then slowly said, "Because this story is a fairy tale for adults."
"Then do you think you are a little prince? Then am I a rose or a little fox in your heart?"
Gu Nianxi thought he would answer yes, and she was even more looking forward to He Jianchen telling her what role she played in his heart. In her confused eyes, He Jianchen spoke, and his answer surprised her.
He said: "I am a fox."
He Jianchen said he was a fox, and no matter how much Gu Nianxi asked him, he didn't tell him the reason. Later, she didn't know what role she was in his story.
The next day, just as He Jianchen said, the pain disappeared. Except for the fact that she could not move her right arm, Gu Nianxi became lively again. She and Lin Yiduo chatted happily. After dinner, two important people came to the ward.
Her CEO and secretary actually showed up and said they were here to visit her.
The pair of Xia Kun and Han Qi looked like a horror movie. Their cold temperament made the whole ward become quiet.
"How was it? The operation was successful." Xia Kun sat on a chair on the side with no expression on his face.
Lin Yiduo looked at this man and felt his scalp numb. Is this the big devil Xia Kun that Zhao Zimu said? It is really scary.
Not to mention Lin Yiduo, Gu Nianxi was also frightened. How could she have thought that a minor operation would allow the CEO to visit her despite his busy schedule.
"Sure, successful. Thank you for your concern, the leader." She replied cautiously to Xia Kun. In front of Han Qi, she did not dare to say anything more to Xia Kun.
Han Qi stood behind Xia Kun, with an expression on her face as if she was forced to work overtime. Gu Nianxi looked up at her and smiled at her. Han Qi showed no expression and just nodded at her in response.
The atmosphere was so awkward that it was breathless. Several people were silent for a long time before Xia Kun spoke again.
"Although Dr. Gu is new to the job, he is still a part of the company, so I specially come to express my condolences on behalf of the company." Xia Kun said, extending his hand to Han Qi.
Han Qi opened the bag tacitly and took out a thick envelope, "This is the consolation money from the company to Dr. Gu. You can buy some nutritional supplements yourself."
The bulging envelope was placed in front of Gu Nianxi. Gu Nianxi was stunned. She and Lin Yiduo looked at each other with the same expression.
"Well, Mr. Xia, there's no need to be so polite. I can't accept the money."
"You're welcome, this is the company's normal procedure." Xia Kun crossed his legs and spoke with an arrogant tone, as if he was talking about this trivial matter.
"Doctor Gu, please keep it. Don't let Mr. Xia's kindness down."
Han Qi deliberately said the word "good intentions" in a very strong way. Gu Nianxi felt uncomfortable when she heard it, but she didn't dare not accept the money.
"Then...thank you, Mr. Xia."
Xia Kun hummed and stood up, "If you have any difficulties, tell me."
Xia Kun nodded, "Let's go now. There's no need to rush back to the company. Let's rest before going to work."
"Thank you, Mr. Xia."
Xia Kun and Lin Yiduo nodded and left the ward first. Han Qi and Gu Nianxi nodded symbolically and followed Xia Kun out.
The two people came and went in such a hurry that Gu Nianxi seemed to be in a dream. She looked at the envelope next to her pillow, but before she could get it, Lin Yiduo snatched it away.
"Oh my god, how much does this huge sum of money cost? Your company's benefits are so good? When every one of your employees is hospitalized, the president will personally come to express condolences?"
Gu Nianxi did not return to Lin Yiduo. She looked at the door and was puzzled. How could it be possible that every employee was hospitalized and the president personally visited the patients.
She always felt that Xia Kun paid so much attention to her. What was the reason?
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Yiduo asked curiously when he saw her lost in thought.
"You said...Mr. Xia won't like me, right?"
"Ah?" Lin Yiduo's eyes widened in surprise.
"He treated me to dinner at the company, and I usually have nothing to do. Their company has no shortage of medical staff at all. He opened this new clinic specifically to support me as a living person. You said he wouldn't do anything to me.
If you have any ideas, please keep me in the company." Gu Nianxi said excitedly.
Lin Yiduo blinked, unable to comment, "That woman just now was his secretary?"
"Yes, it's the secretary you said you have a relationship with." Gu Nianxi grabbed Lin Yiduo's hand, "I can clearly feel Han Qi's malice towards me, and my intuition tells me that she must like Xia Kun, but Xia Kun likes
Me, so she hates me."
"This is too complicated." After hearing what she said, Lin Yiduo quickly said: "Didn't you say that He Jianchen introduced you to a job as a psychiatrist? Otherwise, you should just resign."
Gu Nianxi hesitated for a moment and nodded, "I think I should really stay away from this complicated environment. Xia Kun can't afford to offend him, and his secretary is not easy to offend either."
Lin Yiduo agreed with her, "Don't worry about it now. Take good care of your health first."
"Yeah." Gu Nianxi nodded in a daze.
Xia Kun and Han Qi walked out of the ward. Han Qi had a bad face along the way. She followed Xia Kun, her high heels making a clicking sound, but she said nothing.
When he reached the door of the hospital, Xia Kun stopped and looked back at her, "Do you want to ask me why I take special care of her?"
Han Qi replied expressionlessly, "I don't want to know."
"you--"
"Mr. Xia, work is over, can I get off work?"
Han Qi's indifferent attitude made Xia Kun's words choke in his throat. He originally wanted to tell her that he came to see Gu Nianxi today. He was entrusted by his sister and asked her to come with him. He also wanted him to see with his own eyes that he and Gu Nianxi were not the same.
Any intimate contact.
But her attitude seemed to make him think too much.
"I send you."
"No, it's very convenient to take a taxi here. If nothing happens, I'll go back."
After Han Qi finished speaking, she turned around and left. Before she could walk more than two meters, she was grabbed by Xia Kun who was chasing her.
"I haven't given you permission to get off work. How dare you leave on your own? Follow me."
"Why?" Han Qi asked unhappily.
Xia Kun replied coldly, "Work overtime."
Han Qi was dragged into the oncoming car by Xia Kun. The two of them were in the car, and neither of them paid attention to the other. This was the most common way for the two of them to get along, neither giving in to the other, nor retreating from the other.
"Come home with me."
"No reply."
"Don't make me say it a second time."
"It was the same answer the third and fourth time, no reply."
"Han Qiqi!"
"Don't call people random names! My name is Han Qi!" Han Qi replied angrily, "Han Qiqi is dead."
"..." Xia Kun looked at Han Qi outside the window, angrily pulled her in front of him and kissed her red lips.
