Chapter 1249 I'm not going to take revenge on him
"Cold? How could he catch a cold? Brother has always been in good health..."
"It was cold last night, and he didn't get enough rest, so he had a slight fever this morning. He might have caught the flu recently. Don't go looking for him yet. Wait until he's almost well, and then he'll come down to accompany you."
Sixu shook his head: "I'm not afraid of infection."
He Tian put Xiao Sui in his arms back into the cradle and said, "But your brother doesn't want you to be infected."
"If he's still not feeling better tomorrow, will he be unable to go to school? I'll be the only one going to school..."
He Tian looked at Si Yan's condition and thought that she might be better tonight, not tomorrow. However, Si Yan wanted to persuade Li Jinxing, and no one could predict what would happen.
"Maybe..."
As soon as he finished speaking, He Tian saw Si Xu lowering his head sadly. He Tian raised his hand and rubbed his head: "Are you so reluctant to leave your brother?"
"Yeah." Si Xu nodded in response, "I can't bear to leave."
"Then who is more important, your father, your mother or your brother?"
“They are all important.”
"You can only choose one."
Si Xu didn't even think about it and said directly, "Brother."
This answer is somewhat unexpected, but also reasonable.
“Why is my brother the most important?”
"Because my brother has always been by my side, he has been with me longer than my parents. He gives in to me in everything and protects me whether at home or outside. I also want to be able to protect my brother one day and prevent my father from beating him. I also want him to be happy all the time... In my heart, no one is as important as my brother!" Si Xu said so confidently.
"Your brother is stronger than you think. He doesn't need your protection. Instead of protecting your brother, you should think about how to protect yourself. And the youngest one in front of you, Xiao Sui, also needs someone to protect him."
Si Xu lay beside the cradle and reached out to touch his sister's hand. As if he sensed something, his hand was grabbed by his sister. His sister was sleeping in the cradle, moving her body and smiling at him.
Si Xu immediately had the urge to protect his sister. From then on, there were two more places in his heart, one for a brother and one for a sister. If his sister always obeyed him, he would protect her for the rest of her life.
Si Xu hummed softly as a response to He Tian's words.
He Tian was here to accompany Si Xu, but his heart had already drifted to Gu Wanqiu. He really wanted to see Gu Wanqiu and see how she was doing.
Li Jinxing was at home the whole time, so he couldn't see him at all, and there was no one to ask about his situation.
I don’t know what made Li Jinxing crazy today. He actually told people not to care about Gu Wanqiu and even refused to let people enter Gu Wanqiu’s room.
He Tian could only seek help from outside forces to get Li Jinxing away first. He took out his cell phone and secretly called Zhou Yi.
The morning passed quickly. The chef prepared lunch. Just as they were about to eat, Li Jinxing received a phone call. He didn't even eat, put on his coat, and left with the driver.
When Si Xu saw Li Jin leave, not only did he not feel reluctant to see him go, he actually felt relieved.
He Tian caught this subtle change and looked down at Si Xu: "You seem very afraid of your father..."
Sixu's feelings towards Li Jinxing are mixed with love and fear. She always feels that her father is scary and dares not get too close to him.
Sometimes when he sees his brother arguing with his father and clinging to his father for a hug, he can't help but show envy.
"Well, I'm afraid..."
"Did he do anything to you?"
Si Xu thought about it and shook his head. Compared to his brother who was slapped and taken away, he was just yelled at twice.
He Tian thought to himself that it was probably because Li Jinxing scared him when he got angry yesterday. Sometimes mental illness is more difficult to treat than external injuries because you can't see it, you don't even know what medicine to use, and the frequency of recurrence is also high.
"Let's eat..."
The nanny also took the clean food to the third floor to deliver lunch to Siyan.
After having lunch with Sixu, He Tian asked the nanny to stay with Sixu, and he found an excuse to go upstairs and sneaked into Gu Wanqiu's room. When the door opened, he smelled a strong smell of medicine and blood.
He Tian went in, closed the door, and did not see Gu Wanqiu on the bed.
Didn't she hurt her leg? Instead of lying in bed, where did she go?
At first, He Tian thought Gu Wanqiu was in the bathroom, but when he saw the chain on the ground didn't extend to the bathroom, but was always next to the bed, that meant...
He Tian walked around to the other end of the bed and saw Gu Wanqiu lying on the ground, dying.
Her black hair covered most of her face, and through the gaps, her pale face could be seen. She curled up on the ground. Knowing that her right leg was seriously injured, He Tian focused his attention on her twisted right leg.
He walked over, carefully avoiding Gu Wanqiu's legs, squatted on the ground, and brushed the hair covering her face behind her ears. When he touched it... he found that the hair had clumped together. Gu Wanqiu was lying on her side, and the half of her face leaning against the ground was stained red with blood, which made her lips look dark white.
Even He Tian, who had seen a lot of storms, was shocked. Before coming here, he had imagined all kinds of scenes in his mind, but none of them were as miserable as Gu Wanqiu's current state. The scene in front of him had a great impact on him. He even wondered if Gu Wanqiu had been tortured to death.
He reached out and felt her breath, which was so faint that it was almost imperceptible.
"Gu Wanqiu, wake up... You can't die like this... You haven't finished what you want to do." He Tian really wanted to shake her awake, but he also knew that Shen Zhichu was like half-melted ice. A ripple could break her into pieces. He had no idea where to start or how to carry her back to the bed from the ground.
Should he call a doctor, or get the servants first?
At this time, He Tian no longer cared about the fact that Li Jinxing would find out that he came in to see Gu Wanqiu.
She was about to die, so what was there to plan? His ultimate goal was to get her out of this place alive.
He Tian was already sweating coldly and was about to take out his cell phone to make a call when Gu Wanqiu on the ground moved. She struggled to wake up, even her eyelashes fluttering.
Like a drowning person, she desperately tried to save herself as she sank into the water, grabbing the only float on the water, and finally, she grabbed it.
Gu Wanqiu opened her eyes, and her vision was dazzled by the dazzling light outside the window.
He Tian paused while dialing the phone. Seeing Gu Wanqiu open her eyes, he knelt on the ground: "Thank God, you finally woke up..."
When Gu Wanqiu saw He Tian here, she thought she was dreaming.
"Why are you here?" Gu Wanqiu moved her lips and spoke slowly, each word almost without making any sound.
Fortunately, He Tian could understand lip reading and could roughly understand what she wanted to say from the shape of her slightly open mouth.
"The boss went out for something. I heard you jump out of the window, so I came up to see how you were doing." He Tian looked at her right leg. "Your leg is so badly injured, why are you lying on the ground?"
Gu Wanqiu opened her mouth and uttered two words briefly: "I fell."
It is very difficult for her to speak now, and her chest hurts when she breathes, so she tries to speak as little as possible.
He Tian didn't ask her anything. If she said she fell down, would he believe it?
It was obvious that she was lying to him. With her current physical condition, it was difficult for her to even turn over, let alone get out of bed. How could she possibly fall off the bed?
It was only then that He Tian noticed that the chain that was supposed to be tied around her ankle had reached her neck.
He Tian pursed his lips. Just how deep was Li Jinxing's obsession? Gu Wanqiu was so badly injured, her legs were broken. Even if he let her go, she couldn't leave now. He actually tied her with a chain. Was he afraid she would grow wings and fly away?
In a sense, when Gu Wanqiu jumped out of the window, he pieced together a complete picture through surveillance cameras from multiple angles.
In that scene, Gu Wanqiu jumped out of bed, and the loose clothes on her body seemed to be blown into a pair of wings by the wind. She jumped high, and in the dusk, she really looked like a bird struggling to survive.
That scene was so shocking...it kept flashing in his mind.
"I'll ask someone to come in and move you to the bed."
"No..." Gu Wanqiu shook her head, anxiety flashing in her eyes.
"You don't want to call someone?"
Gu Wanqiu nodded.
He Tian was very smart. He thought about what Li Jinxing said and put himself in Gu Wanqiu's shoes. He was able to easily understand Gu Wanqiu.
It was Li Jinxing who threw Gu Wanqiu off the bed, asked the doctor to stop her medication, and told the servants not to go in to see her. He thought Gu Wanqiu had just an ordinary fracture, and the pain would at most last for a long time, and she would faint from the pain if she couldn't bear it, but she wouldn't die.
Gu Wanqiu jumped directly outside Li Jinxing's baseline and landed on his reverse scale.
He always said that Gu Wanqiu didn't remember the pain, and it was obvious that this time, he wanted to let the pain teach Gu Wanqiu a lesson.
Gu Wanqiu is in this state now, and even if he were in her place, he wouldn't be able to bear it.
It would be better for her to faint than to be awake. Perhaps he shouldn't have woken her up just now.
Even though Gu Wanqiu was in this state, she still stopped He Tian from finding someone to help. Perhaps she didn't want Li Jinxing to become suspicious and implicate He Tian.
He Tian thought of something and took out medicine from his pocket. This medicine was an antidote developed by a doctor. It was called an antidote, but in fact it suppressed the spread of the toxin when the poison took effect. It also had a strong effect of numbing the pain nerves. It was more like a high-potency painkiller than an antidote.
Before He Tian came, he had anticipated that Gu Wanqiu would suffer from the poison, so fortunately he brought the medicine with him.
"Take this medicine. It's for the pain."
When she heard it was a painkiller, Gu Wanqiu opened her mouth without thinking and waited for He Tian to feed the medicine into her mouth.
The medicine was particularly bitter. He Tian fed the medicine into her mouth before thinking of getting some water. However, Gu Wanqiu chewed the capsule directly, but it irritated her throat when she swallowed it.
"Why did you swallow it directly? I haven't even gotten any water yet. Is it bitter?"
Gu Wanqiu shook her head.
He Tian thought to himself that if the medicine wasn't bitter, it wouldn't be made into capsules for easy swallowing. There was a silent water dispenser in the bedroom. He Tian filled a cup of warm water and fed it to Gu Wanqiu, asking her to drink it slowly.
After drinking two sips of water, Gu Wanqiu's throat didn't hurt as much, but she still had some difficulty speaking, mainly because she didn't have the strength. Almost all of her strength was now used to fight the pain.
The medicine worked very quickly, so He Tian waited quietly by the side. In less than five minutes, Gu Wanqiu felt that most of the pain had disappeared. She even felt no pain in several places where her right leg was broken, but only felt a little bloated.
"How about it?"
"Much better...thank you."
This drug works quickly, but it also comes with serious side effects, such as paralyzing the nerves and being addictive. It is also very harmful to the body, from paralyzing the sensory nerves to the brain. Taking too much can cause cerebral palsy.
Gu Wanqiu is already in this situation, living a life worse than death. She only has one year left. Taking this medicine will not have much effect on her. It can even be said that the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, and it can allow her to die without such pain.
"Is the medicine bitter? Is there any taste in your mouth now? Do you want to drink some more water?" He Tian asked.
Gu Wanqiu shook her head. She didn't want to drink water. It wasn't that she didn't want to drink it, but she didn't dare to drink it. She was sick, but her physiological problems still existed. If she drank too much water, she would definitely want to go to the bathroom.
Li Jinxing left her alone on the ground and didn't allow anyone to come in to see her. She couldn't find anyone to help her with her physiological problems. Drinking less water could help her control the problem temporarily.
"My mouth doesn't feel bitter. I've lost my sense of taste now."
Did the poison in her body spread so quickly? It's been less than a month... When Li Jinxing was poisoned, he had no other symptoms except pain for two months.
He Tian overlooked one point. There are huge differences between the bodies of men and women. In addition, during the time when Li Jinxing was poisoned, he had been receiving treatment and taking medicine. He spent most of his time resting and didn't worry about anything.
But what about Gu Wanqiu? She couldn't even get the simplest sleep, sleeping on the floor and eating leftovers. Although she took medicine, her body couldn't rest well. Coupled with the lack of nutrition, her immunity was poor, and her drug absorption was even worse.
Now she has a broken leg and a host of major and minor illnesses that have taken up her entire body. To make matters worse, I'm afraid there isn't even a single intact part of her body left.
Now Gu Wanqiu has lost her sense of taste, and then maybe her hearing, or her vision... Gu Wanqiu had plastic surgery, and among her facial features, the only part that remained untouched was her eyes, which are also the most beautiful part of her face. When He Tian thought that it would not be long before Gu Wanqiu would close her eyes forever and would never be able to see again, for some reason, he felt a little sad.
"He Tian, please help me clean the blood on the ground, don't let him see it... I just broke a leg, I shouldn't vomit blood..." She vomited blood because of the poison in her body.
He Tian said nothing, put down the cup in his hand, took a wet tissue, first wiped Gu Wanqiu's face and hair, and finally wiped the carpet. Fortunately, the carpet was dark in color, and the blood on it was not obvious.
"Are you really okay?"
"He won't die for now. How's Siyan? Did Li Jinxing release him?"
He Tian was shocked. He didn't expect that Li Jinxing also told Gu Wanqiu that he punished Si Yan by locking him in the basement.
Li Jinxing was not reluctant to let Gu Wanqiu go, it was obvious that he wanted her to die.
