Chapter 21 He Can't Escape Her Kindness
Seeing this, Lin Qi quickly walked over and deliberately coughed twice.
Depend on!
Isn't Miss Jiang's eyes open?
Why is this mother crying like she's at a funeral? I'm speechless!
“Miss Jiang, Mr. Fu has come to see you.” Lin Qi raised his voice.
Fu Beichen breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes suddenly darkening.
When Wang Huilan saw the dignified man at the door, she wiped away her tears and quickly went forward to greet him.
"Mr. Fu, you've finally arrived. Our Xin'er was almost dead. The doctor said that if she had arrived two minutes later, I would have had to bury her... Please, you must persuade her not to do anything foolish. My heart can't take it."
Wang Huilan shook her head as she spoke, looking distressed.
"I'd like to speak with Kexin alone."
Fu Beichen stared at the excessively pale face on the hospital bed and said coldly, "Why would you do something so foolish?"
The person on the bed trembled her eyelashes and slowly opened her eyes.
Upon seeing him, Jiang Kexin suddenly smiled, but before the smile reached her eyes, tears streamed down her face.
"My career... is completely over."
Her voice was soft and ethereal, carrying a sense of despair and brokenness.
"I'm like a rat crossing the street now, hated by everyone. What's the point of living?"
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, and she choked back sobs.
"I don't want to put you in a difficult position. My leaving is the best outcome for you and for everyone."
She paused, looked at him with teary eyes, and lowered her voice, filled with endless grievance and reluctance.
"I just... can't bear to part with you."
Fu Beichen's heart felt as if it had been gently bumped by something, and his hard edges softened instantly.
He softened his voice, with a gentleness he himself didn't even realize, "I said, I'll handle things."
He looked at her and emphasized.
"When have I ever stopped caring about you?"
These words were like a lifeline, instantly rekindling the extinguished flame in Jiang Kexin's eyes.
She grabbed his hand suddenly, eagerly confirming...
"Brother Beichen, you really...you really want to help me?"
The hope that had been extinguished surged back like a tidal wave, almost drowning her.
Looking at her like this, Fu Beichen sighed inwardly, "Don't do anything foolish again in the future."
He withdrew his hand and tucked the blanket around her. His movements weren't particularly gentle, but they carried an undeniable air of authority.
"I've made a reservation at your favorite restaurant. Let's have dinner together tomorrow night."
Jiang Kexin immediately understood that this meant they were going to publicly acknowledge her and clear up the controversy surrounding her.
She could hardly believe her ears; her heart was bursting with joy, but she tried her best to maintain a fragile, tearful expression.
She nodded, as obedient as a frightened little rabbit.
Very good!
This time, she really escaped death!
What do those insults matter? What do those losses matter? As long as Fu Beichen is willing to stand up, what do they matter?
This time, she turned misfortune into a blessing in disguise.
She took his hand again, this time with a hint of coquetry.
"Brother Beichen, you are so kind. I am so glad that I jumped into that sea back then and saved you."
She paused deliberately, observing Fu Beichen's expression. Seeing that he didn't react, she continued speaking, her voice trembling with lingering fear.
"Do you know what? At that time, I was almost sinking, but I only had one belief in my mind, which was that I had to save you... You can't be hurt."
Thankfully, you eventually woke up. They all laughed at me, saying I used my first kiss to give you... CPR!
Every word of these words precisely struck at Fu Beichen's point of guilt.
Absolutely, this is a case of emotional blackmail.
Fu Beichen's thoughts did indeed drift back to those years.
The icy, bone-chilling seawater, the suffocating feeling of being on the verge of death. Then, he was rescued and struggled to open his eyes.
The first thing you see is Jiang Kexin's face, which is still breathtakingly beautiful despite being wet with seawater.
That moment of infatuation was real! He truly fell in love with her then and there.
This life-saving grace, this initial attraction, are like invisible shackles, binding him tightly.
He remained silent for a moment, suppressing the complex emotions surging within him.
"Don't do anything foolish again in the future."
He repeated it, his tone becoming more forceful.
Then, his tone shifted, carrying a warning connotation, "I also hope that you will stop targeting Gu Xingnian in the future. She will soon no longer be a member of the Fu family."
Jiang Kexin's heart skipped a beat.
Is he really going to divorce Gu Xingnian?
Very good!
She didn't show it on her face, still maintaining that docile and obedient demeanor, nodding vigorously.
"Okay, I understand, Brother Beichen. As long as she doesn't provoke me, I will definitely not touch her."
Fu Beichen nodded in satisfaction and gently stroked her head.
"Grandpa, it may be hard for me to accept you right now, but I won't let anyone touch you."
Jiang Kexin understood. She didn't necessarily have to marry into the Fu family immediately. As long as his heart was with her, she wasn't afraid.
She shook his large hand, her voice soft and sweet, her eyes full of pleading.
"The doctor said I need to stay in the hospital for observation overnight. I don't want to be here alone, I'm scared. Could you... stay with me?"
Fu Beichen looked at her pale face and the dependence in her eyes.
He didn't want to disappoint her again. In these four years, they had experienced too many ups and downs... but in the end, they still made it to this point.
He didn't want to lose her either.
This time, he made up his mind.
"Good!" That single word carried a heavy weight.
Night was falling.
Fu Beichen did not return to the old house for dinner, nor did Gu Xingnian.
She made up a random excuse and brushed it off.
Actually, she just didn't want to see Fu Beichen.
Thinking of him and everything in the cabin made her feel upset.
When Sheng Weiwei got home, her parents scolded her severely, saying that she was a daughter of a prestigious family and how could she fight in public?
The Gu family immediately took Gu Shaoheng to the Sheng family to apologize.
It is said that the Gu family wanted to finalize the wedding date, but Sheng Weiwei blocked it with a single sentence!
She stated that she would only marry Gu Shaoheng when the scandals surrounding him in Haicheng were over!
The two families are currently enjoying a reconciliation feast.
It started raining sometime earlier, the rain pattering against the window.
The wind blowing in from the balcony carried the chill of late autumn.
Gu Xingnian stood on the balcony, looking at the rain outside the window, the city lights and shadows blurred in the rain.
The Fu Building, though magnificent and grand in the darkness, still appears cold and icy.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong," the doorbell rang abruptly.
Could it be that Weiwei has sneaked out again? She shuffled over in her slippers to open the door.
The door opened.
Standing outside the door was not Sheng Weiwei, but a face she least wanted to see at that moment.
Fu Beichen.
He stood outside the door, seemingly enveloped by the wind and rain outside, his handsome face as cold as if it were frozen.
His gaze was fixed on her, carrying an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Gu Xingnian was about to close the door when he blocked it with one of his large hands.
He stared at her with a half-smile, "Gu Xingnian, you can't escape!"
