Chapter 169 Her Heartbreaking Cries
More and more blood gushed out, quickly soaking the tissue completely, and the red stung her eyes.
"Fu Beichen...don't sleep, I'll help you upstairs...to find a doctor!" Gu Xingnian's voice was filled with fear.
"Don't be afraid, it will be alright in a little while." His voice was already a little weak, but he hugged her even tighter.
"I want to... look at the stars a little longer."
He leaned wearily on her shoulder, his entire weight pressing down on her.
He hugged her tightly, and asked weakly, "Niannian, do you... have any wishes?"
Her voice trembled, filled with desperate sobs, "Fu Beichen, can you... not die?"
"Okay...I won't die...Don't cry..."
His breathing was weak, and the weight of his body pressed down on him, almost crushing him.
Gu Xingnian cried out in terror, "Lin Qi, Lin Qi!"
Lin Qi rushed out of the house.
This night is destined to be very long and painful.
Gu Xingnian drew another large tube of blood to nourish him in the last moments of his life.
The doctor put Fu Beichen on a ventilator. Gu Xingnian stayed by the bedside in fear, while Lin Qi quietly stood guard outside the room, never leaving his side.
In the middle of the night, snow suddenly began to fall again, and the world was desolate and bleak.
The next morning.
Fu Beichen opened his eyes. He only moved his arm, and Gu Xingnian, who was guarding him, immediately woke up.
She leaned down, her voice filled with barely concealed urgency.
"Bei Chen, I'm here. Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
He raised his hand, his movements gentle yet firm, and pulled off the oxygen mask covering his face.
He looked at her, his eyes eerily calm.
"I'm fine, don't worry. I feel much better today."
Gu Xingnian looked at him, her heart clenching suddenly.
Yes, he is in much better spirits, and his complexion is even a little rosy.
But this is like a final burst of energy before death.
Something was pulling at my heart, a dull ache.
Suddenly, he spoke up, "I heard that the scenery at Tianshui Peak is especially beautiful when it snows. Will you come with me to see it?"
Tianshui Peak holds too many memories for them; he only wants to stay in that place.
Gu Xingnian nodded quickly, tears welling up in her eyes, but she held them back.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Knock knock.
Lin Qi knocked on the door and came in, holding a brand-new haute couture suit.
He walked to the bedside, his voice steady but with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor.
"Madam, I would like to help Mr. Fu with his grooming and change his clothes."
This was the only thing he could do for him.
Gu Xingnian instantly understood what he meant; it meant that he might never come back.
She nodded, turned and walked out.
The moment the door closed, she leaned against the cold wall, her suppressed sobs finally bursting forth.
Lin Qi carefully helped him to wash up, changed him into clean clothes, and finally used a razor to meticulously shave off the stubble on his chin.
A short while later, the incomparably handsome man returned.
His face showed no signs of illness, only his usual dignity and aloofness.
With everything prepared, Fu Beichen suddenly spoke.
"I remember your home is in Rongcheng."
"After you go back, go directly to Fu's in Rongcheng to take up the position of general manager. From now on, that place will be in your hands."
Lin Qi paused, his hand holding the comb still, and his eyes instantly reddened.
"Mr. Fu, let's go back together."
He patted Lynch on the shoulder and said casually, "Let's go."
Before long, the three boarded the helicopter and flew straight towards Tianshui Peak.
After they left, a pair of eyes that had been watching from the woods below immediately drove after them.
The helicopter landed on the helipad at Tianshui Peak.
The snow has lessened considerably, but the wind on the mountaintop is still very strong, feeling like knives on your face.
Lynch brought out the wheelchair.
Gu Xingnian helped Fu Beichen sit down, and he did not refuse.
She pushed him slowly from behind, leading him toward the hotel on the edge of the cliff.
Two deep tire tracks and a pair of messy footprints were left on the snow.
Soon, the newly fallen snow buried all traces.
The two people stopped at the edge of the cliff.
Gu Xingnian gazed into the distance. The entire city of Madu was covered in silver, like a lonely white city, so beautiful it seemed unreal, with a sense of isolation and desolation.
Scenes of her and Mr. Xi flashed through my mind like a revolving lantern.
She took a thick coat, carefully covered his legs, and then knelt down in front of him.
She looked up at him, her voice gentle, yet noticeably hoarse.
"It's so beautiful. The city walls are gone, if you could see them..."
Yes, the city wall that once clearly separated the rich and poor areas is now covered in snow, turning into a winding white jade ribbon lying quietly in the center of the city.
He reached out and held her cold little hand tightly, his voice so soft it could melt your heart.
"When spring comes, there will be no rich or poor areas in this city."
"You will see a peaceful Maduri. In the future, if you want to come back, no one will dare to bully you again."
This was the last gift he left for her.
Yes, half of this city will belong to her.
Previously, Zhan Xiao had promised him that if the plan succeeded, Maduri would be renamed Xingcheng forever.
Half of the treasury's wealth was used for the slums, and the other half for the construction of new towns.
Her cheek rested gently on his knee, like a kitten seeking warmth.
"Thank you, Mr. Xi."
He gently stroked her long hair. "Tell me, how did you secretly watch me when you were studying in France?"
His tone was slightly mischievous, deliberately creating a relaxed atmosphere.
Without thinking, she blurted out, "The first time I saw you was in the auditorium, when you were giving a speech on stage."
"A lot of girls were taking pictures of you downstairs, chattering about you, saying you were so handsome."
"At that moment, I thought, 'That's it, there are too many rivals in love, I can't possibly win.' So, I vowed to study hard."
He smiled faintly, "Trying to conquer me with your strength?"
“No,” she said. “I was researching poisonous plants at the time, and I was thinking of putting some medicine on you one day to ruin your flamboyant face so you wouldn’t have to go out and attract attention every day.”
"What a little vile woman." He chuckled, reached out and pulled her up, letting her sit on his lap and encircling her in his arms.
She leaned against him and continued, "The second time I saw you was in the school cafeteria. There was a junior student who was really cute, and she confessed her feelings to you while holding a huge bouquet of roses."
"You rejected it."
"You said that the woman Fu Beichen could fancy hasn't even been born yet. I was furious when I heard that. It's outrageous."
He paused for a moment, then guessed what she was thinking. "So, you wanted to poison me and make me mute that time?"
She smiled in his arms and nodded emphatically.
He smiled and kissed her hair again and again. "Niannian, if only I had fallen in love with you sooner..."
"Go on...I want to hear it..."
She kept talking, while he slowly closed his eyes.
Her words abruptly stopped, and her heart skipped a beat.
She gripped his hand tightly, her voice trembling, "Fu Beichen, don't sleep, please don't sleep."
But he never responded again; his heart had stopped beating.
Tears fell like beads from a broken string, dripping onto the cold back of his hand.
She choked up as she continued speaking, as if trying to hold him back with her voice.
"The third time, during a speech in the auditorium, you said... Many people make money and use it to buy their lives, but you hope... to use scientific research to save lives."
“Back then… I felt… you were shining… so I vowed… to research the formula for curing cancer.”
"Little D... is amazing, it... saved... many people."
She burst into tears.
When God closes all doors, he opens a window.
But where is her window?
She couldn't hold back any longer, and hugged him, crying loudly.
"Fu Beichen... wake up..."
"Please, Fu Beichen... don't sleep..."
"I won't allow...you to die, Fu Beichen...don't leave me..."
"Little brother...don't go..."
Her heart-wrenching cries echoed from the cliff edge, and his large hand, which was holding her, slowly slid down...
A helicopter flew over from a short distance away.
