Chapter 92: Do you want to go to Linxi Village with Gu Yunting?
Su Mengxue stood there, not knowing how to answer him.
Although Gu Yunting hoped in his heart that she would keep the child and marry him, he also knew what Su Mengxue was thinking.
After a long silence, Gu Yunting said solemnly, "If you are willing to keep him, I will marry you. I swear to be good to you and your child for the rest of my life. If you don't want to keep him, I will also help you arrange everything that will happen next."
Although he wanted to obey her, he regretted it as soon as he said it. He was not as straightforward and carefree as he thought. This child had the blood of both of them, and the thought that she didn't want to keep him was heartbreaking.
Before Su Mengxue could speak, tears welled up in his eyes. He tried to persuade her weakly, "Can you please think about it a little longer? If you are willing to keep him, I will definitely treat you two well in the future, for sure."
"Gu Yunting, I..." Su Mengxue didn't know what to say at this time. She was confused and fell silent halfway through her words.
Gu Yunting braced himself against the wall, feeling dizzy as he got out of bed. He walked a few steps to Su Mengxue, put his arm around her, and said almost pleadingly, "If you feel that getting married and having children will restrict you, I can assure you that I will absolutely support you in doing whatever you want in the future. If you find it tiring to take care of the children, we can hire someone to help. In addition, I will also take care of the children whenever I am resting. If you have any other concerns, please tell me, and I will do my best to help you resolve them."
Other women might be moved by Gu Yunting's words, but Su Mengxue was different. She had witnessed her parents' breakup, their reunion, and ultimately, her becoming a helpless "orphan."
She had no confidence and was full of fear about getting married and having children. She was afraid that they would become such parents in the future and their children would repeat her mistakes.
When she thought of the past, her whole body suddenly tensed up and her eyes were full of resistance.
Gu Yunting was so absorbed in his own emotions that he didn't notice Su Mengxue's expression change at all. He kept talking to himself, "I will definitely take good care of you and the child in the future. I will..."
Su Mengxue didn't want to discuss this topic anymore. She looked up at him and said seriously, "Gu Yunting, what's more important to children in a marriage is the love between their parents. Children can only grow better in a loving family. Do you understand?"
"The parents are in love?" Gu Yunting was stunned. He was so excited that he forgot the fact that Su Mengxue didn't love him. This was the biggest problem between them and the mountain he had always found difficult to overcome.
Then the look in his eyes gradually became dim, and his grip on Su Mengxue's hand loosened.
Su Mengxue realized that her words had been a bit harsh. She pondered for a moment and explained in a low voice, "Gu Yunting, I know you're a good person, and I believe what you said. You'll definitely be a responsible family man in the future, but many things aren't..."
Before Su Mengxue finished speaking, Gu Yunting said in a deep voice: "I understand. If you have decided when to go fight..."
The words that followed were too heavy for him. He paused and added in a low voice, "Remember to tell me when the time comes. I'll help you arrange the follow-up matters."
Su Mengxue hadn't made up her mind at first, but Gu Yunting said he would help her arrange the follow-up matters, so she had no choice but to agree: "Just take care of your injuries, don't worry about this matter."
Gu Yunting immediately frowned: "You are pregnant out of wedlock now. If you don't want to keep the baby in your belly, things will be a bit troublesome later."
Su Mengxue blurted out, "It doesn't matter. I've already arranged this."
"Have you arranged it?"
As soon as Su Mengxue finished speaking, she saw the expression on Gu Yunting's face suddenly turn cold. Then he sneered and shook his head in self-mockery: "Su Mengxue, no wonder you didn't tell me about this. You must have made up your mind a long time ago. I was just being sentimental."
Su Mengxue knew that Gu Yunting had misunderstood her. She was about to explain when she saw the door of the ward opened again. This time it was the middle-aged man who came, Gu Yunting's leader.
Lin Wenbin walked straight to Gu Yunting. He didn't care that Su Mengxue was here. He went straight to the point with a serious expression: "Yunting, you are sick now. I shouldn't have come to you, but you are the only one who can stop Weilong right now."
Gu Yunting knew that Lin Wenbin wouldn't have that expression unless something serious happened. He frowned and asked, "Instructor, what happened?"
Lin Wenbin sighed heavily, his eyes solemn as he said, "Yun Ting, you should also know that this Shi Yi is a fake. In fact, the real Shi Yi is already dead."
"Shi Yi is dead?" Gu Yunting's breath hitched, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Instructor, what do you mean by that?"
"Yun Ting, I know about your relationship with Shi Yi. This news is hard for you to accept for the time being. I have already sent people to Linxi Village, and the results of the investigation are consistent with what Wang Jiaojiao said. This is true. Shi Yi died of heavy bleeding during childbirth at home last year, and now her husband has married a new wife."
Gu Yunting lost his balance and fell heavily backwards. Fortunately, Lin Wenbin was quick enough to reach out and support him in time, so he did not fall.
"Yun Ting, you must hold on."
"Gu Yunting, are you okay?"
Two concerned voices rang out simultaneously. Gu Yunting stood up straight, raised his hand to his heart, and asked with all his heartache, "Instructor, do you want me to persuade him not to attack that man?"
Lin Wenbin nodded and said worriedly, "You're the only one who can calm his bad temper, but you have to be mentally prepared. Shi Yi's disappearance back then was related to you. I'm afraid he'll be mean to you too..."
Su Mengxue glanced at the middle-aged man and said dissatisfiedly, "You knew that Gu Yunting had just escaped death and his body had not yet recovered. You told him this news and asked him to persuade Jiang Weilong now. Isn't this asking him to die?"
Just as Gu Yunting was about to explain for Lin Wenbin, Lin Wenbin raised his hand to stop him. He turned to look at the angry Su Mengxue. He knew that her attitude was out of concern for Gu Yunting. Besides, in his life to this age, no one had ever dared to speak to him so bluntly. His eyes were full of admiration and satisfaction for her.
He calmly concealed his inner emotions and said sternly, "As a soldier, you must not only have an iron will and a strong heart, but also be fearless and brave."
Su Mengxue disagreed with what he said. She curled her lips in disapproval and said, "Soldiers are also human beings. Their bodies are not made of iron. They need to rest when they are sick."
Seeing that Su Mengxue was still insisting, Lin Wenbin said, "Since you're so worried about Yun Ting, why don't you go to Linxi Village with him tomorrow?"
Su Mengxue was stunned for a moment, looked at the middle-aged man in surprise, and asked, "Shall I go to Linxi Village with Gu Yunting?"
Although Lin Wenbin didn't have much contact with her, he understood her personality. He asked with a serious face, "That's right, just tell me whether you want to go or not?"
