Upon hearing these words, Gu Nianqiang, who had just woken up, felt as if the sky were falling.

She risked her life to apologize, all to get the Gu family to forgive her.

If this family really can't forgive her, they should at least try to win Du Yi's heart.

She knew very well that as long as Du Yi stood by her side, she would still have a place in the future.

However, she couldn't accept hearing that she couldn't do it.

"Mom, I can lose everything, but I really don't want to live without you."

After witnessing Jiang Yilai's actions over the past two days, Du Yi has truly noticed the differences between the two.

She also understood why, no matter what Gu Nianqiang did over the years, she could not win Fu Nanxiao's heart.

Putting myself in her shoes, I would also choose a kind and independent woman like Jiang Yilai.

She was just worried about Gu Nianqiang.

"If you ever need my help in the future, I will step in."

"No, Mom, don't leave me."

Gu Nianqiang endured the pain and stood up to grab her hand. If she lost Du Yi's support, she would have no status in the Gu family anymore.

Du Yi also made up her mind, pulled her hand away and said firmly, "Everyone has to pay the price for their actions, and I hope you can understand this principle."

Gu Nianqiang was heartbroken and cried out with tears streaming down her face.

“I already know I was wrong, and I’m willing to take any responsibility, but Mom is my only motivation to keep going. I really don’t know how I can live if even you leave me.”

Du Yi sighed. She knew that if she didn't cut things off quickly, the two of them would continue to be involved in the future.

The Gu family's attitude is now very clear: they will never accept her.

More importantly, she also realized that she should no longer have any involvement with Gu Nianqiang.

"I believe you can live a good life on your own."

After Du Yi finished speaking, he turned and left. Ignoring her injuries, Gu Nianqiang threw off the covers and got out of bed. In the struggle, the needles in her hands were pulled out. When she grabbed Du Yi, blood was flowing from the back of her hand.

Not only that, but her wound was also bleeding, which made Du Yi anxious, so he quickly helped her back and called for a doctor.

"I'm telling you, child, you don't take care of your body at all. Hurry up and lie down."

Gu Nianqiang's face turned pale. She grabbed her mother's hand and cried out, "Mom, I'm sorry. I don't want you to worry, but I really don't know how to make you stay."

Du Yi frowned. Seeing her current agitated state, he knew that if he forced her to leave, she probably wouldn't survive.

The doctor arrived quickly and, seeing that her wound had reopened, reprimanded her sternly.

"What's going on? The wound is so deep, why didn't you stay in bed and rest? Why did you get out of bed?"

As the doctor spoke, he instructed people to prepare to stitch the wound again, frowning as he said, "This period is crucial; if we don't take precautions to prevent infection, it could be life-threatening."

Gu Nianqiang cast a pitiful look at Du Yi, who sighed inwardly. Seeing her pale face, he ultimately couldn't bring himself to be ruthless.

She breathed a sigh of relief and comforted him, "Take good care of yourself and don't think about anything. I'll stay by your side for now."

Although she only received a provisional notice, Gu Nianqiang was still very happy, at least she had secured an opportunity.

"Thank you, Mom. I'll listen to you."

No matter what means Gu Nianqiang uses, she must hold onto this person firmly, otherwise she will not be able to stay in this city in the future.
