Chapter 679: Caring and Forbearance
Gu Ruochu sat in her ward, thinking about what Yao Yuan said. From childhood to adulthood, the word "jinx" has always accompanied her throughout her youth. The deaths of her mother and brother have left an indelible mark on her.
That's why she wanted to escape from that city and that home at all costs, wanting to have a home of her own in S City, so she got involved with Ye Mubai, a married man.
Just as Gu Ruchu was lost in thought, the door of the ward was pushed open again. She looked up at Old Xu walking towards her step by step. Gu Ruchu reached out and touched the tears on her cheek: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!"
"Ms. Gu, Mr. Ye has never blamed you, don't be too stressed!"
Gu Ruochu didn't say anything, so Old Xu continued, "When Mr. Gu and I met, he was only sixteen and I was twenty-one. We worked together at the Xinde Pharmaceutical Factory, which was also the company of Miss Yao's father."
Gu Ruochu raised her eyes and looked at Lao Xu: "What are you telling me?"
"Mr. Ye married Miss Yao when he was 20. Miss Yao asked him for help in exchange for the company. In the end, Mr. Ye agreed, but he never thought of monopolizing Xinde Pharmaceutical.
He then used Miss Yao's connections to gradually reach his current position. He is grateful to the Yao family, but at the same time, he also resents them."
Gu Ruochu was a little puzzled and asked, "Why?"
"Miss Yao had a girl she liked at the time, but in that era, it was unacceptable for two girls to be in love, so she sought help from Mr. Ye, and then a lot of things happened.
In the end, the girl got married and had children, and Miss Yao and Mr. Ye's marriage in name only lasted for twenty years.
He sold himself to the Yao family for 20 years. I thought he would continue to follow his plan until you showed up a year ago. I realized he was gradually changing, experiencing emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness...
Miss Gu, no matter what, Mr. Ye cares about you, so he won't blame you for this accident. Don't take Miss Yao's words to heart. At this time, I hope you can give Mr. Ye more comfort and encouragement. After all, he is such a proud person. "
When Gu Ruchu heard this, her mind went blank. For a moment, she didn't know what to think or say. Suddenly, she thought of what Ye Mubai had said to her before, and now she understood.
Gu Ruochu arrived at Ye Mubai's ward. Yao Yuan had already left, and Ye Mubai was the only one sitting on the bed. She walked over, pulled up a chair and sat beside the bed: "Mr. Ye..."
Gu Ruochu called out softly, but Ye Mubai didn't respond at all and just sat there blankly.
Gu Ruochu's eyes fell on him, and then she reached out to hold Ye Mubai's hand. Ye Mubai subconsciously avoided it, but Gu Ruochu still reached out and held it. She said, "Let me stay by your side and take care of you!"
Ye Mubai glanced at her sideways and said with a cold face: "No need, just go!"
Gu Ruochu shook her head: "I'm not leaving, I want to stay."
Ye Mubai sneered: "Ha~" and then said with a cold face: "Get lost, I don't need your sympathy!"
"I don't sympathize with you, I really want to stay and take care of you!"
Ye Mubai said coldly: "No need, go back!"
Gu Ruchu refused to leave. No matter how Ye Mubai threatened her or scolded her, she just wouldn't leave. These past few days, she had been eating and sleeping in Ye Mubai's ward. Although Ye Mubai still appeared cold on the surface, he was now cooperating with the doctor's treatment because of the girl's arrival.
When Old Xu saw this, he was very pleased.
That day, Gu Ruochu walked into the ward carrying a lunch box and saw Ye Mubai had already gotten out of bed and was walking around the ward with a cane. Gu Ruochu was worried that he would fall, so she ran over to save him.
Ye Mubai suddenly said: "Don't come over!"
Gu Ruochu was stunned for half a second, then watched Ye Mubai slowly walk towards the bed, then sat down beside the bed, put the crutches aside, and looked at the girl standing in front of him in a daze.
He said calmly: "Achu, I have something to tell you!"
Gu Ruochu came back to his senses and put the lunch box on the table beside him: "What?"
"I've been thinking a lot these past few days..." Hearing this, Gu Ruochu's heart skipped a beat. Then he heard Ye Mubai continue, "There are many choices in life. Twenty years ago, I chose to sell myself, and now I have made the same choice."
"Mr. Ye, let's eat first, okay? I brought you your favorite braised pork today!"
"Just listen to what I have to say first!"
Gu Ruochu put the bag in her hand away, then walked to Ye Mubai's side, sat beside him, put her arm around his wrist, rested her head on his shoulder, and said softly, "I have also made a choice, and I will not regret it!"
"No, you will regret it, Ah Chu. Let's end it like this. From now on, don't appear in front of me again."
Ye Mubai's voice was a little hoarse. Although he mustered great courage to say the last sentence, every tone he uttered was filled with despair.
Gu Ruochu raised her eyes to look at him and said word by word: "I won't! You can't decide who I am..."
Before the girl finished speaking, Ye Mubai interrupted her and said, "I have a family. No matter how I play, I will return to my family sooner or later, so let's end this mistake here.
For more than a year, I was just a temporary attraction to you. Did you really think I would like you and abandon my family for you? "
Although she knew that Ye Mubai said that intentionally to anger her, the girl still felt uncomfortable. She looked at Ye Mubai and said, "This is not what you really think. You are deliberately trying to anger me. I know that."
Ye Mubai sneered: "What do you know? You know nothing at all. I, Ye Mubai, don't even want a woman who climbs into my bed for money!"
Gu Ruochu's heart trembled violently, then she lowered her eyes, suppressed her sadness, and changed the subject: "Let's eat first, this braised pork is very good..."
"I said get out of my sight and don't show up in front of me again."
"If you don't like braised pork, I'll buy you something else. What do you like?"
"How much money do you want to stay away from me and never appear in front of me in this life, because I feel sick just by looking at you!"
Gu Ruochu acted as if she hadn't heard anything. She took out her phone and made a call while saying, "How about potato and pork ribs? That's also very delicious!"
Ye Mubai slapped the phone in her hand to the ground, and the phone broke into pieces. She bent down to pick it up, but Ye Mubai grabbed her wrist and glared at her with a cold face.
