Chapter 858 Miss Gu, I wish you a happy birthday and have fun
The two sleeping pills had obviously not been digested. As Gu Wanqiu vomited repeatedly, a bitter taste mixed with sourness came from her throat. Her body was stressed and tears flowed from the corners of her red eyes. Vomiting alone had consumed all her strength.
Gu Wanqiu was a little unsteady on her feet. She already had low blood sugar and was not getting enough nutrition. Now she had been retching for more than ten minutes. Her legs were shaking and she knelt on the ground, her back against the frosted glass, her lotus-colored lips slightly open as she gasped for breath.
She didn't know how long she sat there until her legs became numb and she stood up. She looked at herself in the mirror and could hardly recognize herself.
Three hundred and sixty days, time not only makes people grow older, but more importantly, it makes people more elegant.
If Gu Wanqiu in the past was a red rose blooming in the sun, then she is now a mushroom in the dark and damp land, the kind of mushroom that is bright red and obviously poisonous at first glance.
Gu Wanqiu was thin and wore long-sleeved pajamas to sleep, which covered her body tightly. However, pajamas were generally loose. She seemed to have lost some weight in the past few days, and the collar of her pajamas had become larger. When she leaned over, the collar drooped, revealing the scratch on her collarbone.
She reached out and touched it, and found a tooth mark. She scratched the flesh until it bled, but she couldn't completely erase the tooth mark.
Gu Wanqiu raised her hand and looked at the watch on her wrist again. Now she had given up on taking the watch off. She couldn't ruin her hand just to take off the watch.
People who don’t know her would think that she likes it very much because she wears this watch every day and never takes it off.
In fact, Gu Wanqiu hated the watch so much, just as she hated Li Jinxing, but she couldn't take it off.
When she thought of Li Jinxing, she would think of the humiliation and pain he brought her that night. Returning to the bedroom, she poured two more sleeping pills and swallowed them.
This time, she fell asleep soon after closing her eyes. However, in her dream, she saw Li Jinxing's figure everywhere. She seemed to be back on the yacht a year ago. The boat was shaking violently, and the man leaned against her ear like a hungry ghost, calling her name over and over again. She wanted to open her eyes but couldn't, unable to escape from the man's arms.
Gu Wanqiu woke up from a nightmare and looked outside. It was still dark. She sat blankly on the edge of the bed. After a while, she got up and took a bottle of wine, a bottle of vodka, a high-concentration liquor.
She didn't like drinking this kind of highly concentrated alcohol, as it was bad for her health. She also didn't like the pungent taste of the alcohol, but after taking a sip, the spiciness on the tip of her tongue spread from her throat to her lungs, and her entire chest seemed to be burning.
She began to enjoy the feeling of self-abuse. Drinking can numb one's nerves, and the higher the concentration of the alcohol, the more effective it is.
After drinking three mouthfuls, Gu Wanqiu couldn't take it anymore and vomited directly onto the ground. Then she started laughing. After laughing for a while, she hugged her head and cried, pulling her hair hard.
Severe bipolar disorder caused her mood to be very unstable, with extreme joy and sorrow. She liked to torture herself whether she was happy or sad.
Gu Wanqiu started going to the hospital frequently again without telling Gong Qing because she was afraid that Gong Qing would worry.
The doctor prescribed her some medicine and told her to take care of her health and not drink alcohol anymore.
Gu Wanqiu asked the doctor: "Will my illness ever be cured?"
Bipolar disorder is difficult to heal on its own and almost accompanies a person throughout his or her life. Once you have it, it is not easy to recover. People who do not understand this mental illness think that it is just a person's personality and that it is difficult to get along with them.
The doctor said, "You have to learn to regulate yourself, such as using learning to divert your attention, using exercise to vent, and doing things that are good for you. Of course, if you are willing to tell me about your past experiences, it might be better..."
Gu Wanqiu was unwilling to do so. She didn't like to tell others about her experience as if it were an illness.
Every disease has a cause, and we need to solve the problem from the root. It is like a knot. Once it is untied, it will be fine. If it cannot be untied, it will become a dead knot.
September 30th arrived, and that day was a Sunday.
The Gong family booked a hotel box. There are many Saint Blue Hotels in Country M, and there are three in this city alone, in different locations.
The Gong family said they had booked the Shenglan Hotel, but they did not specify where the Shenglan Hotel was.
However, a special driver will pick her up and take her to the hotel that morning.
In addition to arranging a driver, the Gong family also prepared clothes for her, a goose yellow cheongsam.
Gong Qing called and asked her if she liked it.
She looked at the skirt on the bed and was not willing to wear it at all, but she couldn't reject Gong Qing's kindness with cold words.
“It’s pretty.”
Gong Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "My mom chose this skirt for you. She said it was a birthday present for you. I haven't seen you wearing a skirt in a long time. I was afraid you wouldn't like it if my mom gave it to you."
Cheongsams are relatively conservative. After all, the neckline is high, reaching the neck, completely covering the collarbone, and the hem also reaches the ankles, revealing the calves faintly. Such a skirt can be worn.
"Thank you auntie for me, I like it very much."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Wanqiu picked up the cheongsam on the bed. It was a light yellow cheongsam with exquisite hand-embroidery. Gu Wanqiu looked at the flowers on the hem and felt that they looked a bit like camellias.
It instantly brought back bad memories for Gu Wanqiu.
She changed into a cheongsam, which fitted her perfectly, as if it had been tailor-made for her. Her chest and thighs were not exposed, making it very conservative.
Cheongsam can perfectly show off a woman's curves. Gu Wanqiu is now 165cm tall but weighs only 90kg, which makes her look very thin. When she was at her thinnest, she weighed only 70kg and looked like a skeleton without any beauty. It took her half a year to get into her current state.
After changing into a cheongsam, Gu Wanqiu simply tied her hair up and changed her shoes. She waited until the driver called to say he had arrived downstairs before she went downstairs with her bag.
The nearest Saint Blue Hotel to the apartment is 20 kilometers away and can be reached in half an hour by car.
When they arrived at the hotel, the driver told Gu Wanqiu to go in directly. Her name was on the box number. She just needed to tell the front desk clerk and someone would lead her in.
It was still early, just after ten o'clock. Gu Wanqiu got off the car and took out her cell phone to call Gong Qing, but after hearing what the driver said, she felt there was no need to do so.
After entering the hotel, Gu Wanqiu reported her name to the front desk. Sure enough, the waiter knew her name and led her to the VIP box on the eighth floor.
"Have they all arrived?" Gu Wanqiu asked.
"Yes, everyone is here. This box was booked a week ago. Our hotel spent a lot of time decorating it. I hope you will like it when you come in." The waiter rang the bell.
The waiter inside opened the door and said, "Miss Gu, please come in."
The waiter who escorted her upstairs stopped at the door and bowed slightly to Gu Wanqiu: "Happy birthday to you, and I hope you have fun today."
