Han Xi posted a picture of a meal on her social media account: stir-fried kidney blossoms, scrambled eggs with chives, stir-fried celtuce and yam, oysters, sheep testicles... From then on, the whol...
Chapter 113 Afraid someone would run away
Upon hearing Zhuo Qingqian's words, Han Xi couldn't help but laugh and say, "Qianqian, you're mistaken. Actually, someone like you is more suited to raising children."
Zhuo Qingqian looked at her with a puzzled expression. Over the years, Gu Beichen had repeatedly asked to have a child, but she had always refused.
Now that she sees Han Xi returning to China with two adorable little ones, she is genuinely happy, but the thought of the process of childbirth and raising them makes her hesitate.
"Then let's see if you can convince me."
"It is precisely because you understand the responsibility and hardship of raising children that you will definitely be more responsible once you have one, unlike those who have children without any preparation and end up in a mess."
Zhuo Qingqian laughed when she heard this. She was indeed worried that she wasn't doing well enough, which was why she didn't consider this aspect.
Han Xi held her hand and said, "In any case, we'll make a decision after we've thought it through. Plus, Bei Chen is quite composed now, so I believe he'll be a good father."
Zhuo Qingqian hugged her. Whenever she had doubts, Han Xi could always give her guidance.
I will think about your question carefully.
Han Xi patted her face, hoping her good friend would have a happy family.
Back in her room, she received a call from Mrs. Shen, who told her that her grandmother wanted to invite her back for dinner that evening.
Han Xi knew she couldn't escape it when they met in the morning. Faced with two elders who had done nothing wrong and were kind to her, she couldn't refuse their request and had no choice but to agree.
So in the evening, Shen Jiheng arrived at the Gu family's gate, ostensibly to give her a ride there on his way.
Hearing this person at the door, Han Xi had no choice but to go out to prevent him from entering.
Shen Jiheng noticed a hint of panic in her eyes and asked curiously, "What's wrong? You seem very anxious?"
Han Xi opened the car door and got in, saying unhappily, "Next time you come to someone else's house, can you at least give me a heads-up so I can prepare?"
Shen Jiheng smiled slightly: "I would like to, but I'm afraid some people will run away as soon as they hear I'm coming."
So that's what he was thinking. Han Xi was truly impressed.
"Your surprise attack is going to be very annoying."
Shen Jiheng calmly smiled and said, "I think your reaction is a bit excessive. It's as if you're afraid I'll come over. Could it be that you're hiding someone in the Gu family and are afraid I'll see them?"
Han Xi's heart tightened; this person's guess was frighteningly accurate.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Shen Jiheng raised an eyebrow. "Could it be that I guessed right?"
Han Xi rolled her eyes at him.
"Can you stop making such a fuss? Grandma and the others invited me to dinner, what business is it of yours?"
Shen Jiheng innocently replied, "You know how powerful they are. The ancestor told me to go back for dinner, how could I not go?"
Han Xi didn't believe his words, but she did want to talk to him about some things.
"Now that we have some time, I'd like to talk to you about the kidnapping that happened four years ago."
Shen Jiheng frowned and looked at her incredulously. She hadn't investigated it back then, but she hadn't expected her to ask about it now.
What do you want to know?
"Back then, I was only focused on blaming you for not saving me, but now I want to know what really happened."
This is a wound in Han Xi's heart, and also an indelible pain in Shen Jiheng's heart.
The wound was reopened, laid bare in its bloody glory.
“At that time, I received a tip that Bai Xue had been kidnapped, and the address was attached. When I rushed over and found her, she was already in a coma and very weak.”
"So, I wasn't mentioned in any of those messages at all, and when you found Bai Xue, she didn't say anything either?"
Shen Jiheng nodded, his deep voice ringing out: "If I had known you were there, I would have turned that demolition area upside down to find you. Bai Xue was disoriented at the time and only woke up the next day."
So Shen Jiheng really didn't know about her kidnapping? Was Bai Xue really that miserable?
Do you know what their main purpose was in kidnapping me?
Shen Jiheng's brows furrowed more and more, and his good mood about seeing her today dissipated.
No wonder she got into the car so readily; she wasn't willing to go with him, but rather wanted to find out what happened back then.
Han Xi added, "They kicked my stomach, trying to beat me until I miscarried."
Mentioning this, Shen Jiheng clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "It's all Gu Hanxi's fault."
Han Xi asked, "What if it has nothing to do with her?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiheng's eyes widened, and he asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"
Han Xi checked the time and said, "Dinner probably won't start so soon. Let's go to Hengtian Hospital. I still have some questions that haven't been answered."
Seeing her expression, Shen Jiheng realized that something had changed and immediately told the driver to take him to Hengtian Hospital.
Han Xi then suggested, "Have Professor Yang find Bai Xue's medical report from four years ago. I want to see just how serious her injuries were that they caused her to lose her mind."
After Gu Hongyi discussed these matters with her yesterday, Han Xi kept thinking back to what happened back then.
Those people were clearly there to capture Bai Xue, and she went to help but got captured instead. Logically, it shouldn't have had much to do with her.
However, the kidnappers knew her weakness and their intention was to abort her child.
She also recalled vaguely seeing a figure at the window, which she initially thought was a hallucination. However, the more she thought about it these past two days, the more uneasy she felt, as if it were Snow White.
But she was tied up at the time, and the kidnappers had beaten her first, so it was impossible for them to let her go.
Shen Jiheng did as she instructed, and when the two arrived at the hospital, they went directly to Professor Yang's office to find him.
Han Xi saw him smiling and extending his hand; this Professor Yang was a benefactor who had given her a lot of help.
"Professor Yang, it's been a long time."
Professor Yang smiled and shook her hand: "Ms. Han, it has indeed been a long time. I have retrieved Bai Xue's medical records as you instructed."
Shen Jiheng took the document and was overwhelmed by the various tests listed, making it impossible for him to know the true situation.
Han Xi wasn't as patient as him, so she skipped the step of looking at the screen and went straight to asking Professor Yang.
"Professor Yang, I believe you have seen this medical record. I am here to ask what state the injured person was in given this injury."
Professor Yang looked at the medical record and said, "According to the contents of the medical record, Miss Bai's injuries back then were not serious. She only had a few minor abrasions and her condition was fine."
Shen Jiheng said, "When she was brought here, she was covered in blood. How do you explain that?"
Professor Yang frowned as he reviewed all the records and said, "This is strange. According to the medical records, Miss Bai did not have any wounds and should not have had so much blood on her body. However, I was not the one who took over the case at the time, so I am not clear about the specific situation."
Shen Jiheng gasped. He was terrified when he saw her covered in blood back then, and he rushed her to the hospital without thinking twice.
Now that he was being told that Bai Xue didn't have any wounds at all, Shen Jiheng excitedly asked, "Then whose blood is it?"
Professor Yang shook his head: "These are not registered, so we don't know. But if there are wounds or stitches, there will be treatment reports. These medical records don't show them."
