Gu Huaixu remained silent. At such close range, his gaze met Wen Yi's, creating a strong sense of pressure. However, Wen Yi was not afraid; she remained calm and confident, certain that the other party would agree to her request.
Wen Yi's actions can also be seen as a way of asking for compensation from Master Gu.
Gu Huaixu suddenly smiled and released Wen Yi, "I agree to this condition."
Only then did Wen Yi secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
She wasn't really that confident; all her confidence and composure came from hard work to get Second Master Gu to agree to her condition.
It's like in a fight; no matter how skilled you are, you'll always lose to someone who's fearless. As long as there's nothing you can't give up, you're guaranteed to win.
A silence fell over the carriage.
Wen Yi didn't talk much. When she leaned back in her chair, she found that her back was soaked with sweat. She didn't know if it was because of her confrontation with Master Gu earlier or because of what had happened before.
When I leaned back in the chair, I felt a lot of pain coming out of my body, including my ankle that the mysterious man had healed, which started to ache again. I felt very uncomfortable and tired.
As night deepened and the car drove along the street, Wen Yi's mental strength gradually declined until she finally lost consciousness, her head tilting towards Master Gu.
Gu Huaixu reacted quickly, reaching out to support Wen Yi and pressing her face against his palm, otherwise Wen Yi would fall.
He looked at her in silence.
Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he removed the mask from her face.
He often wears a mask when facing Wen Yi, but in reality, he no longer bothers to deal with those disguised scars.
The car arrived at the villa.
Luo Yi got out of the car and opened the door. Gu Huaixu got out of the car carrying Wen, who was fast asleep.
"Contact a doctor to come and give the Second Madam a full examination."
"yes!"
Luo Yi immediately did as instructed.
He was practically relegated to the sidelines, but lately, whenever the Second Master had any matters concerning the Second Madam, he would always have Luo Yi handle them.
At first, Luo Yi didn't understand. Later, when he contacted Luo Jia about this, Luo Jia explained it to him.
Second Master had two purposes.
First, let Luo Yi make amends for his mistakes.
Secondly, it was to let Luo Yi know that this second wife was different from the previous ones, so that Luo Yi would think carefully before acting.
Luo Yi called a doctor to give Wen Yi a full examination.
Gu Huaixu watched from the side. The doctor was a woman. Wen Yi had many wounds of various sizes on her body. They were not noticeable when she was dressed, but a careful examination revealed that she had many wounds.
The doctors had a hard time treating it, and some of the wounds had even started to become infected. Wen Yi wasn't asleep; she had fallen into a coma.
There were some insects and ants in the jungle, which Wen Yi didn't notice while fleeing. In fact, he was bitten many times, and they were all somewhat poisonous, but the toxicity was low, so his body didn't react as strongly.
It took the doctor three hours to completely treat Wen Yi's injuries.
The doctor reported to the Second Master, "Second Master, the Second Madam's wounds are not serious, but she needs to rest well these few days. Her mental state is also very poor; she is drowsy and has no appetite. We need to make sure she eats as much as possible, otherwise her recovery will be very slow and will affect her future."
Gu Huaixu nodded and let the doctor leave.
Not long after the doctor left, Luo Yi walked in.
"Second Master, news has arrived from Luo Jia's side..."
As soon as Luo Yi began to speak, Gu Huaixu turned around and gave Luo Yi a cold, warning look. Luo Yi immediately shut up and left.
Gu Huaixu stared at Wen Yi for a long time before finally walking to Wen Yi's bedside.
When he bent down to cover Wen Yi with the blanket, Wen Yi, who had been in a deep sleep, suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were very alert, and she grabbed Gu Huaixu's hand that was covering her with the blanket very tightly.
Gu Huaixu paused for a few seconds, then covered Wen Yi's eyes and patted her, "Go to sleep, you'll feel better after a good night's sleep."
He was trying to calm them down.
A few minutes later, when I let go of her hand, Wen Yi had already closed her eyes and was breathing evenly, clearly having fallen into a deep sleep.
Gu Huaixu helped Wen Yi tidy up the quilt and touched Wen Yi's forehead, which was still a little hot.
The doctor warned that Wenyi's fever would recur in the next few days, but it was nothing to worry about. As long as she got enough rest, she would be fine. Taking medication rashly would affect Wenyi's recovery.
Physical cooling methods are the only option.
Gu Huaixu went to the bathroom, got a towel, and wiped Wen Yi's body as instructed by the doctors.
He took care of her personally, with gentle movements, and Wen Yi did not wake up during the entire time.
After wiping it two or three times, Wen Yi's fever finally subsided.
Gu Huaixu lowered his head and kissed Wen Yi's forehead before leaving Wen Yi's room.
Luo Yi was already waiting at the door.
After Gu Huaixu came out and completely closed the door, Luo Yi stepped forward to report what he hadn't mentioned earlier.
"Second Master, Luo Jia's investigation has revealed that this whole affair was orchestrated by that woman in the capital."
Gu Huaixu showed little expression upon receiving the report, clearly having anticipated this event and knowing who was behind it all.
Gu Huaixu took out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket, lit them, and walked towards the study.
Luo Yi followed closely behind.
...
When Wen Yi woke up groggily, it was already broad daylight outside.
She was in a daze, feeling extremely tired and exhausted. Her mind was a complete blank, and she had no idea what had happened.
It took her a long time to recover. She had been kidnapped and forced to flee, where she met a mysterious man and then Master Gu.
That's how they were brought back.
Wen felt uncomfortable all over, sticky and exhausted. She couldn't stand it, so she got up to go to the bathroom to take a shower and make herself look presentable.
only……
When Wen Yi stood in front of the mirror brushing her teeth, she suddenly stopped.
In her hazy state, she seemed to see Gu Huaixu.
She lay in bed, with Gu Huaixu standing beside her, comforting her, pulling the covers up for her, and even singing to her…
Wen Yi froze completely.
Preface by Gu Huai.
Did she really see Ah Xu?
Wen Yi thought back carefully and realized that there was indeed a face like A Xu's. A Xu had appeared while she was unconscious.
Could it be that Ah Xu actually didn't die?
The car accident did happen, but Ah Xu didn't die. Or maybe the Gu family said Ah Xu was in an accident for some reason, but in reality they were treating him and he's recovered now.
Or perhaps, Gu Huaixu never died in the first place?
Was that car accident a setup?
Wen Yi thought about many things, and the more she thought about it, the faster her heart pounded, and the more frantic she became.
She brushed her teeth frantically, speeding up her movements, then cleaned herself up and put on her clothes. During this time, she felt so unwell that she was momentarily dazed, but nothing could stop her from going to find Gu Huaixu.
After tidying herself up, Wen Yi quickly walked towards the room door, opened it, and stepped outside.
She walked very fast and bumped into the maid who came up, knocking over the things the maid was carrying. Wen Yi also fell to the ground because she was too weak...
