Shen Zhichu loved him wholeheartedly for sixteen years, yet she was asked to leave empty-handed, just to make room for the "white moonlight" in his heart.
Li Jingshen thought he would...
Chapter 1231 Li Jinxing wakes up
He Tian chose to tell the truth and did not lie to her because he felt sorry for her.
Why is it difficult to predict?
Because this poison will slowly corrode the human body, and the pain will become more and more severe day by day.
Now he has lost his sense of taste, and in the future his sense of smell, hearing, vision, and all his senses will disappear. Eventually, he will lie in bed waiting to die like a vegetative person, or even be worse than a vegetative person.
The vegetative person seems to be asleep, but a "poisonous person" like her has to endure severe pain every moment even when lying down.
Even Li Jinxing would find it hard to endure this kind of pain, let alone Gu Wanqiu.
What's more, women are more sensitive to pain than men.
He Tian felt his scalp tingling just listening to it. If it were him, he would rather choose euthanasia than endure the pain that gnawed at his bones.
Take a week to say goodbye to the people around you, arrange your funeral, and then find a quiet and comfortable place to kill yourself with a knife.
He Tian also spoke out his thoughts: "Are you feeling a lot of pain now? Later, when the poison invades your internal organs and penetrates your bone marrow, the pain will be ten thousand times worse than it is now. If I were you, I would kill myself before the poison takes effect. Although people often say that a good death is worse than a miserable life, not everyone can endure the pain of a life worse than death. The boss was poisoned for less than three months and fainted. Do you think you can compare to him and live for more than three months, or even a year?"
She didn't believe she could survive a year, but she wouldn't die either. As long as she could live one day, it would be one day. She would endure the pain no matter how hard it was, unless one day she couldn't bear it anymore and died from the pain. But at least, suicide was not her choice.
Gu Wanqiu smiled at He Tian.
For the first time, He Tian saw that clean and comfortable smile on her face, instead of the arrogant or fake smile like before.
This kind of Gu Wanqiu may be the most attractive Gu Wanqiu in Li Jinxing's heart.
Gu Wanqiu tried hard to make a complete sound from her throat: "It's a pity that you are not me. You don't know why I want to live."
"Because you love the boss?"
"Don't you think it's ridiculous that someone like me is worthy of talking about love?"
He Tian shook his head.
"I don't even know when I fell in love with him. During the time when I lost my memory, a familiar figure kept appearing in my mind, and I thought Gong Qing was that figure. Do you still remember ten years ago, when I was pregnant with Li Jinxing's child, I was caught by Liu Zibo when I went to the hospital for a check-up. That day, I knew it was Li Jinxing who saved me, but actually... when I was in the hospital that time, I really wanted to keep the child." If the child was still there, he would be ten years old by now.
He Tian's heart paused. If Gu Wanqiu didn't mention it, he would have forgotten all these past events.
"Then I'll tell you one thing. This time you're pregnant, although the eldest brother loves the child very much, he loves you more than the child. He wanted to hide it from you at first, and then tell you the truth after you realized something was wrong.
But after he repeatedly tested you and knew that you didn't want the child, he contacted the hospital and asked if he could perform an abortion on you. Abortion is very harmful to your body, and the doctor also told him clearly that if you abort the child, it will be difficult to get pregnant again in the future, and even if you are lucky enough to get pregnant in the future, you will have habitual miscarriages.
Around the time of the Lunar New Year, the eldest brother had been in contact with the hospital, asking them to come up with a surgical plan that wouldn't harm your body as much. However, before the plan was out, you found out. He was angry at the time, not because you wanted to abort the child, but because you chose to do it with medication, which is extremely harmful to your body. He cared so much about your health, but you didn't cherish it. Just a few words from Gong Qing made you do something that would hurt yourself.
He Tian sighed after he finished speaking. It could only be said that the two people's way of dealing with feelings were too similar. They were both used to keeping things to themselves and not saying anything. Their methods of dealing with conflicts were also very extreme. This caused the gap between them to grow wider and wider, which was exploited by some people with ulterior motives.
"Now you know how much Gong Qing has lied to you, right?"
Gu Wanqiu's fingers trembled: "He lied to me, but he was the one who saved me. He was really good to me over the years. I just don't know when he started to change."
"All relationships are insignificant in the face of interests."
"But I owe him so much, so much that I can't repay him. I can still repay Li Jinxing with my life, but Gong Qing..."
He Tian frowned: "Are you still thinking about him at this time?"
Gu Wanqiu shook her head: "He Tian, can I ask you a favor?" She really couldn't find anyone to turn to. In the past, she and He Tian could be said to be disgusted with each other and disliked each other, but now, he was the only one who could talk to her and understand her.
He Tian was a person who was afraid of trouble. "Let me make it clear first. I will never do anything to let you down. Small matters are easy to deal with, but I really can't help you with big matters."
Gu Wanqiu: "Li Jinxing has been targeting Gong Qing recently. I know Gong Qing cannot defeat him. I hope that after I leave, you can secretly help Gong Qing and at least save his life."
He Tian's frown relaxed. "Don't worry about that. Boss never wanted Gong Qing dead, nor did he want to deal with him. It was Gong Qing who was always looking for trouble, always trying to cause trouble for Boss. This time, too, Boss was just trying to protect himself. Our goal this time is very simple, to make Gong Qing leave Country Z and make sure he can never set foot here again."
This result was already good for Gong Qing. At least Li Jinxing did not kill them all and force the Gong family into bankruptcy.
If she were to plead for mercy, given Li Jinxing's temper, not only would he not do it, but he would even vent his anger on others.
"I just hope that after I die, all these grudges will disappear. I don't want others to be implicated because of me." Although she has already implicated many people.
He Tian comforted her: "Don't think about your afterlife while you're alive. You should relax. For some things, the more you think about them, the more mistakes you make. It's better to just let things take their course and take it one step at a time."
"But I'm about to die, aren't I?" Gu Wanqiu looked indifferent. She could already look the word death in the face without running away or being afraid. It was just a pity that she couldn't see Li Jinxing and the children any longer.
"Have you thought about how I should leave here?" Gu Wanqiu asked.
He Tian replied, "I haven't thought about it yet, but Zhou Yi and I will persuade him. If all else fails, we'll have to move the two children out. Si Yan and Si Xu have always respected your ideas. When you left with Gong Qing that day, the two children acted on their own and kept pulling the nanny to stop them from calling the housekeeper and us, just to make it easier for you to leave Haicheng."
Gu Wanqiu didn't know what happened after she left. Thinking of her two children, her heart twitched violently and it hurt a lot.
Gu Wanqiu looked up and looked out the window: "Li Jinxing will let me go, because he doesn't love me anymore, he doesn't like me anymore." So, he will let her leave here.
He Tian glanced at her and said, "Do you really think that the boss no longer loves you?"
Gu Wanqiu smiled bitterly. Wasn't it obvious? He kept her chained to a dog leash, confined to the pet room. She didn't even have a bed to sleep on. She slept on the floor with a blanket covering her. She had to call for help to shower or go to the bathroom, and the servants would pull her by the leash. She was fed leftovers for three meals a day.
If Li Jinxing still loved her, he would not do such a thing to her.
In the past, no matter how harsh the words Li Jinxing said, he was always soft-hearted towards her and would not let her feel bad for too long.
But this time, he locked her in the pet room for a week and ignored her.
She knew very well that her body was at its weakest right after giving birth, and this period was the golden time for women to recuperate and recover.
But he made her sleep on the cold floor, and he also knew that she didn't like to eat leftovers.
Sure enough, the people who know how to hurt you are often the ones who understand you best.
It also proves the saying that when a person likes you, he will ask you how you are even if you sneeze a little, and he will consider your temper as a sign of personality. When he doesn't like you, even if you are as gentle as a cat, he will still dislike your hair loss.
Of course, the current situation is her own fault and she cannot blame anyone else.
What's more, now, rather than Li Jinxing still loving her, she would rather he hate her and ignore her, so that after she left, he would not have any worries and live more freely.
Perhaps because he was about to die, Gu Wanqiu's mentality had changed drastically.
Until the last step, she still didn't want her two children to see her current appearance. Saying goodbye again would only hurt her heart again.
Gu Wanqiu needed to rest at this time. Not long after she took the medicine, her eyelids drooped while she was chatting with He Tian, and she could no longer control the fatigue of her body.
It’s good enough that I can sleep now. I’m afraid that even if I feel too sleepy in the future, the pain will make me unable to sleep.
Gu Wanqiu forced herself to cheer up and dragged out her voice: "When Li Jinxing wakes up, have someone take me to the pet room. Don't let Li Jinxing know that I saved him. Don't let him get suspicious."
The hoarse voice was full of fatigue and intermittent. It was really not easy to talk with He Tian for so long.
"I understand. Just take a good rest and don't hold on any longer."
"Yeah." Gu Wanqiu responded, and with the help of He Tian's hand holding her, she slowly lay down, closed her eyes, and became completely quiet.
It is really hard to say whether it can be hidden from Li Jinxing. After the blood transfusion, Gu Wanqiu's already pale face became even uglier, without any blood color. When the lights in the room were on, it even felt transparent.
He Tian walked out with the empty bowl, quietly closed the door, and before leaving, he instructed the servants at home to take good care of Gu Wanqiu.
Gu Wanqiu woke up on the third day, and Li Jinxing opened his eyes in the hospital the day after Gu Wanqiu woke up.
This time, it took Li Jinxing too long to wake up. He was in a coma for 85 hours. If his physical characteristics were not within the normal range, people would have thought he had become a vegetable.
Li Jinxing, who had just woken up, felt like his brain had frozen, his mind was blank. He had no idea what had happened, let alone where he was. His body felt heavy and it was difficult for him to even raise his hands.
After slowly regaining consciousness, Li Jinxing relaxed.
He didn't die?
Thinking about what happened, his heart felt a little sore. His strength slowly recovered and he could lift his hands. He placed his hand on his left chest, feeling the beating of his heart inside.
He could be considered a man who had experienced death once. Before the poison took effect, he felt severe pain in his chest, difficulty breathing, his heart seemed to have stopped, his spirit collapsed, and he felt suffocated... There was no place on his body that didn't hurt.
Every pain in his body reminded him not to forget who was responsible for everything he had endured today. It was Gu Wanqiu's betrayal. She had poisoned him. How many times had this happened? Did Gu Wanqiu want to kill him?
Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years. He has been bitten by this snake several times, and it is time for him to learn a lesson this time.
How could he not be sad? Li Jinxing finally experienced what it meant to be pierced by thousands of arrows. He felt as if he had swallowed a thousand needles, all of which were stuck in his heart. The pain was so intense that the blood could not be stopped and the wound would not close.
This is the person he has been waiting for for ten years, this is the person he has loved for twenty years, this is the person he wants to spend his life with and take care of his whole life, and yet she is so vulnerable.
It turns out that there are people who really have hearts of stone. No matter how warm the hands are or how long they are held, they cannot be warmed up.
He originally thought that as long as time was long enough, he could change a person's life, and could subtly change Gu Wanqiu, make her get used to him, and fall in love with him. Unfortunately, life predicted his predictions, and all his thoughts turned out to be contrary to his own.
Gu Wanqiu is not his moon after all.
"Mr. Li, you finally woke up. Wait a minute, I'll call the doctor over and notify Mr. He and Mr. Zhou." The nurse who was taking care of him had just gone to the bathroom. When he came back, he found that Li Jinxing had actually opened his eyes. He ran out happily and had forgotten that he could press the bell at the bedside to call the doctor.
The doctor quickly got the news and rushed over. Li Jinxing was now in the observation room and was the doctor's key care target. The attending physician was in a room not far away. The nurse went to notify the doctor, and the entire medical team treating Li Jinxing came over.
Li Jinxing is no longer in danger of death. Now the main focus is to observe whether he has any other discomfort in his body and whether he will have any sequelae in the future.
The doctor who was walking in front came to the bedside and asked softly, "Mr. Li, how are you feeling now? Are you okay?"
Li Jinxing tried to open his mouth to speak, but no sound came out of his throat and he frowned.
"You've been unconscious for four days. It's normal for your throat to be dry and unable to speak. Just drink some water to moisten your throat."
They quickly got a glass of water and gathered together, watching Li Jinxing drink the water. Li Jinxing coughed twice, making a sound, but at the same time it also affected his heart, causing a dull pain.
