Gu Jingchen hesitated for a long time, but in the end said nothing.
Because he didn't dare to anticipate the consequences of speaking out.
An An didn't want to know...
A while——
Gu Jingchen finally swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and said instead.
"An An, we're getting divorced soon. I know I've owed you everything over the past two years, so...if there's anything you need my help with, you can ask me now! And after the divorce, if you need anything, you can come to me and I'll definitely help!"
He looked at Su An with a somewhat serious expression.
I hoped that after saying so much, she would take the initiative to ask for help.
Give him a chance to help her.
But after Su An heard this, there was no change in his expression, he just blinked.
She then lightly broke free from his hand.
"I understand, but I really don't need your help with anything. You don't have to think too much."
She said this calmly and handed the spoon to Gu Jingchen as she spoke.
Gu Jingchen's hands were shaking slightly, and a huge wave of emotions had already risen in his heart.
Su An...really still didn't want to say it.
She didn't want to accept his help.
It's his fault...
If he had discovered that An An was sick earlier, would the situation not be like this today?
It’s too late…
It's too late for everything.
"Don't you want to drink?"
Su An's voice suddenly rang out, pulling Gu Jingchen back to his senses.
"Um?"
Gu Jingchen was stunned for a moment, then quickly came back to his senses and nodded, "Hey, you made this especially for me, how could you let it get cold?"
As he spoke, he scooped up a small cup of soup, brought it to his mouth, and took a sip.
It seems that a small amount of Chinese medicine was added to the soup, which should be good for the stomach.
But the smell is not offensive, instead it smells very sweet.
"An An, your cooking skills are really good."
Gu Jingchen swallowed it and praised Su An, but there was a bitterness in his eyes.
The soup that An An cooked herself...I guess we can only drink it in the next few days, right?
As he thought about it, he hurriedly drank a few more sips.
But for some reason, the originally sweet soup became more and more bitter, and the bitterness went all the way to the bottom of my heart.
Such a good An An...
He let it down.
Since she didn't want to talk about her illness, he didn't press her.
As long as I can help secretly, that's fine.
No matter if they can't be together, he wants her to live well!
The next day——
Gu Jingchen received all the information about Su An's condition early in the morning.
He opened it silently, and with every glance, his brows tightened a little.
When he saw Su An standing aside with a normal expression, he felt even more heartbroken.
She has been enduring it alone...
If he hadn't bumped into Doctor Zhang yesterday, he would still be fooled by An An's normal appearance!
Gu Jingchen was filled with regret and hatred, and spent the entire morning repeatedly studying the medical information.
When it was time to eat, he excused himself from feeling weak and said that he wanted to drink the soup cooked by Su An.
Su An had already decided to take care of him in the next few days, so he didn't say much and took him back to Gu's house.
As soon as she left, Gu Jingchen immediately took out his cell phone and called Dr. Zhang.
In just a few seconds, the call was connected.
Gu Jingchen went straight to the point.
"Doctor Zhang, I'm Su An's husband. You saw me yesterday. I'm calling to ask you about your treatment plan. Also, will the baby in her belly have any impact on her body?"
Doctor Zhang paused after hearing this, recalled what happened yesterday, and then sighed.
"The surgery must be done, but before that, Miss Su must have the baby removed. Pregnancy itself is very exhausting, and the fetus constantly absorbs nutrients from the mother as it grows. Given Miss Su's current condition, her body simply can't sustain it..."
Doctor Zhang was halfway through his speech when he suddenly sighed.
He paused for a few seconds before continuing.
"I understand your reluctance to part with the child. When Miss Su first came to see me, she even asked if there was any way to keep the child. I had no other choice but to tell her the truth..."
"If you insist on keeping this child, you might not even live to give birth! Miss Su finally listened to me and decided to have an abortion!"
"Save the child?"
Gu Jingchen didn't expect Su An to have such thoughts, and his whole body suddenly stiffened.
Su An...didn't she want to have an abortion from the beginning?
Even want to keep the child?
She had no other choice but to make the decision to have an abortion.
She never thought about not having their child.
But what about him...
What did he accuse her of?
"Mr. Gu? Are you still listening?"
Doctor Zhang's voice suddenly pulled Gu Jingchen back to his senses.
"I am here."
Gu Jingchen responded hurriedly.
Doctor Zhang then continued, "Miss Su's current condition is indeed not suitable for delaying any further..."
"I don't understand."
Gu Jingchen interrupted Doctor Zhang, clenched his fists, but continued talking without stopping.
"I will communicate with Su An first. In three hours, please call Su An and ask her to have an abortion as soon as possible based on her health condition. Also..."
He suddenly paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and then said, "Su An doesn't know, but I already know her condition. I came to you privately and hoped that you could save her."
"OK."
Doctor Zhang agreed readily.
The two talked for a few more seconds before Gu Jingchen hung up the phone with a heavy heart.
Then he leaned against the bed, not knowing what he was thinking about.
After an unknown amount of time, Su An came back.
When Gu Jingchen heard the sound, he looked up and saw her coming in with a thermos bucket. A complex look flashed across his eyes.
Su An still had an expressionless look on his face. He skillfully placed the thermos on the table, took out the accompanying bowl and small bowl, and poured out a bowl of soup.
Then I heard Gu Jingchen suddenly say——
"An An, I have something I want to tell you."
Su An paused in pouring the soup and turned to look at Gu Jingchen with a questioning look.
Gu Jingchen's eyes were deep, and when he met Su An's eyes, his throat suddenly tightened.
He repeated in his mind the lines he had already thought of before Su An came back.
A while——
Only then did he finally speak calmly.
"Regarding the matter of the child, I've thought it over carefully. I wasn't thoughtful enough before. Since we've already decided to divorce, this child could be a burden to everyone in the future. In order not to hinder our future development of a new relationship, I agree to your abortion and won't stop you."
He said all the words he had prepared in one breath.
