Chapter 59 Su Mengxue knows the truth!
Gu Yunting's throat twitched slightly when he thought of Su Mengxue, and a dark light flashed in his eyes. He lowered his eyes for a few moments, then put away his emotions, and replied with his back straight, "Whether she likes me or not is different from whether I want to stand up for her."
Ever since Gu Yunting failed to bring this girl home for dinner last time, Lin Wenbin had long guessed that she was in love with him. Hearing him say this now, he was even more certain of this.
He looked at the stubborn and tense figure in front of him, sighed deeply, took a half step forward, patted his thick shoulders, and said earnestly: "Yun Ting, there are many good girls. You are so outstanding, there is no need to hang yourself on a barren tree. When I go back tonight, I will ask my wife to find you a wife. I guarantee that she will be a well-educated and well-mannered girl, definitely better than that Su Mengxue."
Gu Yunting knew that Lin Wenbin meant well, but his heart was already filled with Su Mengxue, and it would be difficult for anyone else to win his heart.
He paused, then said in a muffled voice, "Instructor, you can call me stubborn or stupid, but I just want to keep this love. Even if I end up with nothing, I don't want to... I don't want to give this love to someone else."
Lin Wenbin knew that Gu Yunting was a stubborn man. Although he felt sorry for him, he also felt that he was indeed a good man worthy of trust. He thought that when he had the chance to meet the little girl named Su Mengxue in the future, he would definitely say a few words for Gu Yunting so that his infatuation would not be in vain.
He came back to his senses, still keeping a serious face, and said in a cold voice: "Although you didn't cause any serious trouble today, that was also the credit of the public security comrades. You still have to receive the punishment you deserve. I will sentence you to seven days of solitary confinement as a punishment. If you commit such a foolish act again in the future, you will no longer wear this military uniform."
Gu Yunting frowned slightly. He wanted to say something but knew that military orders were difficult to disobey. He straightened his back, saluted Lin Wenbin, and replied, "Yes."
"Okay, go ahead!"
"Yes, instructor."
Lin Wenbin watched Gu Yunting's departing back and thought of the old man of the Gu family. His voice softened unconsciously and he called out to him, "I know the old man is in the hospital. Before you go into solitary confinement, go call home and make some arrangements."
"Thank you, instructor."
…
Su Mengxue fell asleep after the drip. When she woke up drowsily, she looked through the window and saw that it was already dark. She was about to struggle to sit up when Lu Yuanzhou opened the door and came in with a thermos in his hand.
Seeing that she had woken up and was about to sit up, Lu Yuanzhou quickly walked over to her and helped her up. He then waved the thermos in his hand towards her and said gently, "Mengxue, you must be hungry. I specially asked our aunt to make you some food. Eat it while it's hot."
Lu Yuanzhou opened the thermos as he spoke, and Su Mengxue said in a low voice with some difficulty: "Lu Yuanzhou, can you do me a favor?"
Every time Su Mengxue uttered a word, her throat felt as painful as if she were swallowing a razor blade. Her voice was very soft, and every word she uttered was extremely difficult.
Seeing this, Lu Yuanzhou quickly put the thermos aside, handed her a pen and paper, and said, "Mengxue, to protect your throat, you should try to speak less. If you have anything you want me to do, just write it down on paper!"
Su Mengxue reached out to take the paper and pen, and wrote the words "Zhou Ji Tailor Shop" and "Zhou Weidong" on the paper. Then she handed it to him and added, "This is where I live. Please tell the old man so that he won't worry."
Lu Yuanzhou reached out to take the paper and pen, and when he saw the words "Zhou Ji Tailor Shop", his eyes were filled with confusion. Didn't she live at Gu's house? Why did she move somewhere else?
He wanted to ask her, but considering that she was not in a position to speak, his question turned into a smile: "No problem, I'll go right away."
As he said that, he helped Su Mengxue prop up the table on the hospital bed. He placed the food in the thermos bucket layer by layer on the table, and then handed her the new chopsticks, spoon and paper towels that he had prepared in advance.
Su Mengxue looked up and saw the food, including fish soup, egg custard, millet porridge, fruit puree and noodle soup. She noticed that the fish soup was skimmed of oil, and the fruit was specially beaten into a paste to make it easier for her to swallow. His care was evident in the dishes.
Her heart warmed, and she smiled at Lu Yuanzhou and said, "Thank you, Lu Yuanzhou."
Lu Yuanzhou smiled and shook his head: "Mengxue, aren't we good friends? You don't have to be so polite. You can eat first. I'll go tell the old man. When you're done, just leave it there and I'll clean it up when I get back."
After saying that, he turned and walked away quickly.
After Su Mengxue finished her meal, she covered the thermos. She thought about going to the toilet and finding a place to clean the thermos.
Although her head still hurt a little, she didn't feel as weak after having the IV drip and eating. She slowly stood up with the help of the wall, picked up the thermos bucket and left the ward.
When she finished using the toilet and went to the bathroom to wash the thermos bucket and was walking back, she happened to meet Sun Suqin and Gu Changhe at the corner of the corridor.
Although Su Mengxue didn't like them, she had to step forward and agree for the sake of the old man. She smiled and said, "Aunt Sun, Uncle Gu."
Gu Changhe forced a smile and mumbled a response. He caught a glimpse of Sun Suqin's stern face, not even raising her eyelids, and nudged her subtly with his elbow.
Sun Suqin was stabbed by him, and she was even more angry. She pushed Gu Changhe back with her elbow and growled, "Gu Changhe, why are you pushing me? I'm not blind!"
Anyway, Gu Yunting was in solitary confinement and the old man was sick. She glanced at Su Mengxue with a look of disgust at the corner of her mouth: "Unlucky thing! You expect me to say hello to her? Dream on!"
Su Mengxue was just about to speak when she heard Gu Changhe say, "Okay, stop talking. It's more important to see Dad." As he said that, he reached out to pull Sun Suqin's arm, wanting to take her away from here.
Su Mengxue's heart sank when she heard this. She suppressed the discomfort in her throat and raised her voice slightly to ask, "Uncle Gu, what happened to Grandpa Gu?"
Sun Suqin ripped Gu Changhe's arm off and yelled at Su Mengxue, "How dare you ask? Since you came to our Gu family, so many things have happened to us. Xiangyu was put in jail and sent to the textile factory. The old man even had a sudden heart attack in the middle of the night."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly approached Su Mengxue and said through gritted teeth, "And Yun Ting, he's always been careful and steady in his work, but now he's been put in solitary confinement by his superiors because of you. You, little girl, are simply a jinx. Whoever gets involved with you will be in trouble."
Su Mengxue's face suddenly changed. She said in surprise, "Grandpa Gu, he has always been in good health, how could he suddenly become ill? And Gu Yunting, why do you say that he..."
"Why are you pretending to be confused?" Sun Suqin sneered and interrupted, "If you hadn't been fighting with someone, why would he have been put in solitary confinement for standing up for you? Su Mengxue, you really have a good way of controlling everyone, young and old."
"Gu Yunting went to find Fang Rou?" Su Mengxue's heart stagnated, and her fingertips unconsciously clenched the corner of her clothes.
