He asked suddenly, but Ji Shuyu was not surprised, as she knew he would ask it sooner or later.

At first, she blamed him for not trusting her, for pushing her away whenever something happened. Later, she thought she had forgotten, that all her feelings had been worn away by that long time.

But when he fell down the stairs in front of her eyes and she was powerless to stop him, she realized...the so-called forgetting was just deceiving herself.

She didn't forget, but...

"Xiao Yu!"

Seeing what she was thinking, Gu Xiuyuan suddenly stood up anxiously.

He stood up on one leg, moving too quickly and nearly falling.

Ji Shuyu supported him.

Only then did Gu Xiuyuan calm down.

"If it's not now, then forgive me. If it's not now, then start over." He held her cold hand, "This is just an opportunity."

Give him a chance to get closer to her again.

"I'm responsible for what happened in the past," Gu Xiuyuan said, placing her hand in his palm. "I was selfish and self-righteous. Under the guise of protection, I did something that hurt you."

When talking about the past, Gu Xiuyuan was filled with regret.

"I know that what happened in the past cannot be undone no matter what I say, but if you are willing to give me another chance, I will never do that again!"

"I won't be so self-righteous anymore, making decisions on my own, and I won't push you away anymore." He said, holding her hand a little tighter. "Xiaoyu, think about it, okay?"

Ji Shuyu did not answer.

There was no right or wrong in what happened back then, it was just different choices made by different standpoints.

But she hasn't thought about the future yet.

Sometimes, when you have more experience, you will become cautious.

Knowing the reason for her hesitation and also knowing that he brought up the question so suddenly, Gu Xiuyuan did not ask any further questions.

Now that he has expressed his feelings, as long as she can see his sincerity, she will give him a chance.

He believed she would forgive him.

Gu Xiuyuan draped the blanket from the wheelchair over her shoulders, then put her slightly cold hands to his lips and blew on them, then pressed his hands against his chest and rubbed them gently.

Ji Shuyu wanted to pull her hand away, but Gu Xiuyuan held her hand tightly.

In fact, she was not cold, but she was a little scared of being here. When she thought of that moment, her legs went weak.

…

When the two of them arrived, there was a person sitting in the ward.

It’s Gu Xiu.

He was wearing a high-end suit, looking noble and elegant, with extraordinary temperament.

While sitting on the sofa waiting for them, he had a computer on his lap and looked extremely busy.

Seeing the two people coming, Gu Xiu closed the computer with his hands.

"Xiaoyu." He stood up and walked forward, his eyes full of concern. "I was abroad when it happened, and I've been busy since I came back. Are you still here?"

"I'm fine." Ji Shuyu shook her head slightly.

Gu Xiuxiao breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Gu Xiuyuan.

"Brother, how about you? Are you okay?"

This call of "brother" made Gu Xiuyuan uncomfortable. He frowned slightly and did not respond.

As usual, Gu Xiuhao did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he acted as if he was blaming himself and feeling distressed, as if he blamed himself for being late.

"Sorry it took me so long to see you."

His tone was full of heartache for his blood-related brothers, but his eyes were full of pleasure.

From childhood to adulthood, it was always Gu Xiuyuan who was high and mighty, the moon surrounded by stars, looking down on everything.

Now, the two people's positions are reversed.

He held a high position, while Gu Xiuyuan was sitting in a wheelchair and had a plaster cast on his body. This contrast made him feel extremely comfortable.

This hypocritical look was really disgusting, but Gu Xiuyuan just glanced at him lightly and said, "You are thoughtful."

Gu Xiuxiao choked secretly and frowned slightly, but only for a moment.

"Let me do it!"

He took the wheelchair from Ji Shuyu.

Pushing Gu Xiuyuan to the bedside, he sneered in his heart as he looked down at him.

It was fine in the past, but now what qualifications did Gu Xiuyuan have to act so superior in front of him and act like he looked down on him?

Oh……

"Brother, do you want to lie down on the bed for a while?"

Gu Xiuxiao asked deliberately, looking like a caring younger brother.

"Boss Gu, let's do it!"

Sure enough, the bodyguard outside the door heard it and came in immediately, carefully helping Gu Xiuyuan to the bed.

In recent years, the Huo family has taken good care of the Gu family's business. The Huo family's bodyguards are no strangers to Gu Xiu and respect him as Mr. Gu.

Gu Xiuxiao benefited a lot from it, especially in front of Gu Xiuyuan.

Ruhuan saw Gu Xiuyuan being helped to the bed like a "useless person" and needing care in every way, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

He generously stepped forward, adjusted the position of the pillow, and helped him lie down, saying considerately, "Slow down."

He wanted to use every detail to tell Gu Xiuyuan: You are a waste.

Gu Xiuyuan was indeed seriously injured this time. Before coming, he specifically checked his injuries and also saw the whole process of the incident on the Internet.

Thrilling, but also regrettable!

If it was Gu Xiuyuan who fell to the ground, it would be great!

Oh, no, if I had fallen harder I would have been dead!

What could be more joyful than watching Gu Xiuyuan suffer? !

"Miss, Mr. Gu's doctor just came over." The bodyguard reported.

"Hey." Ji Shuyu glanced at Gu Xiuyuan, "I'll go take a look." After saying that, she looked at Gu Xiuyuan. "Brother Xiuyuan, please sit down first."

"Yes." He smiled gently, "I just had a chat with my brother."

Gu Xiuyuan felt a little sick of being called "brother" again and again.

Seeing what he was thinking, Gu Xiuyu didn't want to restrain himself.

Ji Shuyu left, and Gu Xiu looked at the bodyguard at the door.

"Go and protect your young lady."

Because of the previous incident, the bodyguard was indeed required to protect the lady at all times.

However, they were paid by the Huo family, so who was he?

The bodyguard sneered, glanced at Gu Xiuyuan inside, and nodded slightly when he saw him nod: "Mr. Gu, please take your time to chat."

The bodyguard closed the door and left.

There were only two of them in the ward, so naturally there was no need for them to "act". After all, they both knew what was in each other's heart.

Gu Xiu first walked around the ward.

"It seems that Uncle Huo is truly grateful to you from the bottom of his heart for saving your Xiaoyu." He smiled, "This luxurious ward must have been set up temporarily!"

A word of "Uncle Huo" and a word of gratitude clearly put himself in a position closer to the Huo family.

Gu Xiuyuan originally disdained to pay attention to him. His verbal attacks were so boring, but his smug look was really unpleasant to look at.

"Do you like it?" Gu Xiuyuan raised his eyes, "I can arrange for you to stay here for two days."

Gu Xiu was a little surprised by his attack, and thought he would still maintain his attitude.

"I'm not lucky enough to enjoy this blessing. You don't know how busy the company is." He said, and suddenly laughed, "Look at my memory. The company used to be run by you, brother."

He turned and looked at Gu Xiuyuan lying on the hospital bed, then slowly walked to the bed.

"Thank you for your hard work over the past few years!" He said, patting Gu Xiuyuan's shoulder, as if he had been helping him with management in the past.

Gu Xiuyuan felt funny when he looked at Gu Xiuyu. He thought this pig would pretend for a while longer.

His smile slowly caused cracks to appear on Gu Xiu's expression.

But even so, he didn't bother to get angry, which drove Gu Xiu㫧 crazy.

The more he acted like this, the more he wanted to destroy his peace!!

Thinking of this he smiled again...

"Brother, I heard that your leg is not in good condition." He said regretfully.

Gu Xiuyuan frowned as he listened, what?

Looking at his reaction, Gu Xiu smiled secretly: See, he really doesn't know.

Gu Xiuyuan has been proud all his life, and leaving a physical defect on him should be more painful for him than death.

"Dad knows, too, but he hasn't been feeling well lately, so he couldn't come with you." He consoled her, "Don't be sad. Compared to losing your life, a little physical disability... is a blessing."
