Chapter 105: Is it Xu Jianian who replaced her?
Gu Yunting's body froze, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down vigorously, as if there was something stuck in his heart, but in the end he said nothing.
Su Mengxue felt inexplicably suffocated when she saw him being silent. Although she knew that Gu Yunting was afraid that something might happen to her during childbirth, when she heard Gu Yunting say with her own ears that he didn't want this child, she suddenly felt a bitterness in her heart.
She looked at Gu Yunting and asked with a serious face, "Gu Yunting, I have one last question for you. Have you really thought it through?"
Gu Yunting's eyes were red. Although he wanted to keep the child and wanted to keep Su Mengxue even more, after hearing what Jiang Shiyi's daughter and Su Mengxue said in the car, he kept thinking about Jiang Shiyi who died in childbirth.
After he asked the doctor about the possible dangers of childbirth, he became more determined in his inner thoughts. At the same time, he also knew that Su Mengxue wanted to return to modern society, and he should not force her to give birth to the child and drag her down.
The fingers hanging at his sides unconsciously clenched tightly, and after his throat rolled again and again, he still didn't have the courage to speak again, so he had to remain silent.
Silence was tacit agreement. Seeing that he had made up his mind, Su Mengxue suppressed the tears that threatened to well up in her eyes at any time. With a cold face, she said angrily, "Gu Yunting, if I hadn't been thinking about you during this period, I would have given up on him a long time ago. Now that you have made up your mind, I know what to do."
After she finished speaking, she saw that Gu Yunting still didn't speak. The last bit of hope in her heart for him disappeared instantly. After a pause, she added calmly: "Don't bother with the formalities. I remember telling you a long time ago that I have already completed the formalities."
Gu Yunting's heart stagnated when he heard Su Mengxue say this. After a few seconds of silence, he replied in a low voice: "If you need my help in the future, feel free to come to me. If I'm not here, go to the army and find them according to the name written on the note."
Su Mengxue's eyes darkened, and then she looked straight at him and smiled indifferently: "Gu Yunting, I think there is no need for us to contact each other in the future. Besides, those people are your friends. In what capacity should I trouble them? Okay, I'm leaving." After she said that, she left without looking back.
Gu Yunting froze in place, his Adam's apple rolled a few times, but no sound came out.
After Su Mengxue walked away, the composure he had been trying to maintain disappeared in an instant, and the grief and self-blame that followed surged into his heart. He leaned against the wall, his shoulders slumped, and he had no strength left in his body.
After Su Mengxue walked out of the hospital quickly, she saw Lu Yuanzhou standing at the door waiting for her. After hearing what he said, she realized that Jiang Weilong had already taken the child back. Before leaving, the little girl asked Lu Yuanzhou to tell her that she hoped she could visit Jiang's house often.
Su Mengxue and Lu Yuanzhou chatted for a few minutes and planned to take the bus back to Zhou Ji Tailor Shop, but Lu Yuanzhou insisted on taking her back. She was in a bad mood and was too lazy to talk any more, so she took the bus back to Zhou Ji Tailor Shop with Lu Yuanzhou.
She looked out the window without saying a word all the way, and Lu Yuanzhou was also understanding and remained silent all the way.
When she saw the master, she was about to explain to him why she hadn't been here for the past few days, but she saw the master put down his work, walked quickly to her, and looked at her with a worried look on his face: "Girl, are you discharged from the hospital? Are you feeling better?"
Su Mengxue had been so preoccupied with Gu Yunting these past few days that she forgot to tell the old master. Just as she was about to ask him how he knew about her hospitalization, she heard him say, "When this young man came to inform me, I wanted him to take me to see you, but he said the doctor told you to rest, so I didn't go."
Only then did she realize that it was Lu Yuanzhou who had come to tell the master. She secretly sighed, thinking that Lu Yuanzhou was indeed thoughtful. Then she smiled at the master and said, "Grandpa, I'm fine now, don't worry."
Zhou Weidong replied repeatedly, "That's good." He thought for a moment and added, "Son, a few days ago someone came here looking for you. He didn't say why, just that he should go to Xiangyang Auditorium as soon as you come back."
Xiangyang Auditorium? Su Mengxue's eyes flickered. Tang Qing must have some work for her, but she hadn't been there for the past two days. She didn't know if it would delay Tang Qing's work, and she didn't know if she would be angry.
Thinking of this, she was filled with worry. What if Tang Qing got angry and stopped cooperating with her? After all, she would need money for many other things in the future, and there were not many sponsors who would be so generous as to pay less money to Tang Qing.
Although she had many concerns in her heart, she remained calm and responded, "Okay, Grandpa, I understand."
She looked up at the wall clock, thinking that it was getting late today, so she would have to wait until tomorrow to look for Tang Qing. At this moment, she caught a glimpse of the table full of clothes waiting to be made, and thought to herself that she should do more work to help the master before finding a house to move out.
After she sent Lu Yuanzhou out, she returned to the store and started making clothes. The master craftsman wanted her to rest more because she had just been discharged from the hospital, but she just said that she was fine and continued to do her work.
At night, after repeated instructions from the master, she stopped her work, but she had no appetite and did not eat dinner. After washing up, she lay down on the bed.
Although she was very tired and exhausted after a hard day, and her eyelids were drooping, she just couldn't fall asleep. Her fingers unconsciously covered her flat belly, and her mind was full of what Gu Yunting had just said in the hospital.
She didn't even know what she was angry about. Since Gu Yunting himself said he didn't want the child, why should she continue to worry about it? But she had an indescribable feeling in her heart. She thought she was not an indecisive person, but for some reason, she suddenly became very hesitant.
It was almost dawn when she fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Su Mengxue got up, had breakfast, said goodbye to the teacher, and took the bus to Xiangyang Auditorium. When she arrived at Tang Qing's office and explained the situation, Tang Qing didn't bother her anymore after hearing that she had been hospitalized a few days ago.
But Tang Qing also told her that because this charity banquet was a spur-of-the-moment idea and the preparation time was a bit rushed, and because she couldn't be contacted, she asked a friend to find someone from Jiangbei Institute of Fashion yesterday, and today was his first day of work.
Although Su Mengxue felt a little sad that the money that was about to be earned was gone, she couldn't blame Tang Qing for this, so she had nothing to refute.
Just as she was about to exchange a few words with Tang Qing and leave, she heard Tang Qing say, "The deadline is so tight, and I'm worried about him doing so much work alone. How about this, you two do the work together, and then the money will be divided according to how much work you each do."
Su Mengxue naturally had no objection. After she agreed, she saw Tang Qing raised his wrist to check his watch: "It's almost time, he should be here soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Mengxue heard a knock on the door. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xu Jianian appear at the door.
