Chapter 1237 One day I will go to a place you can’t reach
The doctor came over quickly and was a little surprised because she had just given Gu Wanqiu antipyretics last night. This morning, she also asked the servants here about Gu Wanqiu's condition and learned that her fever had subsided.
Once the fever subsides, the symptoms will be relatively alleviated. After that, as long as you get enough rest and take medicine on time, you will recover quickly.
Why now, Gu Wanqiu's symptoms seem to be more serious than last night?
What exactly happened in between?
The family doctor prepared the medicine he brought and took Gu Wanqiu's temperature. He now had a low fever and was a little dehydrated and needed an IV.
The doctor hung up the medicine and added a few more pills to the medicine prescribed last night. Considering that Gu Wanqiu had an inflamed throat and it was difficult for her to swallow the pills, the medicines he prescribed were all in the form of granules.
The granules are easy to take, but they taste bitter.
It should be fine this time.
In addition to medicine, what patients need more than anything else to recover is a good attitude.
The doctor thought about the place where Gu Wanqiu lived. How could a person be locked up and made to sleep on the floor?
Li Jinxing may not listen to what others say, but he will more or less listen to what the doctor says.
"Boss Li, Miss Gu's situation is a bit complicated..."
"Complicated? She just has a common cold. Could it be that she has a terminal illness?"
The doctor patiently said, "Mr. Li, have you ever heard the saying, 'A heart disease requires a heart medicine?' Miss Gu's heart disease is too severe. The environment has a great impact on people. At least until she recovers, please let her stay in this bedroom and don't let her sleep on the floor anymore."
After the doctor finished speaking, he kept looking at Li Jinxing, waiting for his answer.
Li Jinxing kept frowning, "If we don't let her change her environment, will she die?"
"It's hard to say, maybe."
Gu Wanqiu might die at such a young age.
Li Jinxing felt a sharp pain in his heart. He looked at Gu Wanqiu lying on the bed and frowned even more tightly. At this moment, he had to compromise and listen to the doctor.
He knew clearly what he wanted. If he was going to torture Gu Wanqiu, he would torture her for the rest of her life, not let her die now.
Death would be a relief, but letting her live now would be the best revenge.
Li Jinxing explained in his heart.
Seeing him nod, everyone present felt relieved, especially the nanny, who even felt a little happy. Resting here was much better than resting downstairs.
Gu Wanqiu will definitely take good care of her health this time.
As for Zhou Yi, he secretly sent a text message to He Tian, asking him to send Gu Wanqiu away as soon as possible. If he delayed any further, Li Jinxing might not be able to bear it.
Another thing is that Gu Wanqiu’s condition is very bad now, and she always feels that she will die in the next second.
Zhou Yi wanted to tell He Tian everything that happened today, but he couldn't call now and could only send text messages, and text messages had too many words.
It can only be temporarily slowed down.
The child downstairs has been crying, crying for a while and then stopping for a while. He has cried so much that he vomited milk, and his voice is hoarse now.
After making arrangements for Gu Wanqiu, Li Jinxing went to hold the child. In his father's arms, the child seemed to feel safe, gradually lowered his crying, and finally quieted down.
Her eyes were swollen from crying for so long. Li Jinxing leaned over and blew gently on her eyes, and the child closed her eyes.
Seeing that the child had finally calmed down, the confinement nanny reached out her hand and said, "Boss Li, let me hold the child."
Li Jinxing was about to hand the child over when he felt a resistance on his clothes. He lowered his head and saw the child's small hands tightly grasping his clothes, and his red and swollen eyes narrowed into a slit as he looked at him.
Li Jinxing suddenly couldn't bear it anymore.
"Let me hold her, you go and do your thing."
The confinement nanny could only withdraw her hand.
Li Jinxing stood in front of the bed holding the child. Children of this age have poor memories. Even if it is the mother who gave birth to her, if she doesn't hold her for a few days, no matter how close she is, she may not recognize her mother.
How long had it been since Xiao Sui saw her mother? How long had it been since she was held in her mother's arms? Did she still remember Gu Wanqiu? Did she miss her scent, the warmth of her embrace?
The child gave the answer.
Zhou Yi brought a chair and placed it next to him. Li Jinxing slowly sat down holding the child.
The child in her arms seemed to sense something and turned to look at Gu Wanqiu. She let go of Li Jinxing's clothes and stretched out her hand towards Gu Wanqiu.
Seeing this, Li Jinxing stood up and carefully placed her next to Gu Wanqiu.
Leaning against Gu Wanqiu, the child soon closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Li Jinxing stood up stiffly. The child, nestled beside her mother, slept so comfortably that people couldn't bear to take her away.
Li Jinxing looked for a long time, until his legs became stiff, then he called the confinement nanny to carry the child back to the crib.
This time, the child slept very soundly and did not wake up again.
Gu Wanqiu had an IV needle stuck in the back of her hand. The blue vein on the back of her hand protruded high, the punctured area was red and swollen, and the fluid was flowing very slowly. Li Jinxing reached out and held her cold hand receiving the IV in his palm, and then interlocked their fingers, as if only in this way could the two of them be closest to each other.
Gu Wanqiu didn't sleep for too long. After the bottle of medicine was finished, she woke up slowly.
The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was Li Jinxing. She thought she was dreaming.
It seemed that only in dreams would Li Jinxing not look at her with disgust, and she would not sleep on the ground.
Gu Wanqiu opened her mouth, and a broken voice came out of her throat: "Li Jinxing, I'm sorry..."
Li Jinxing watched her open her eyes. He didn't say anything because he wanted to see how Gu Wanqiu would react. Who would have thought that the first sentence she said to him was to say sorry.
Even if this "I'm sorry" didn't come from her heart, he softened his heart and even thought, why not just forget it... just like that...
Li Jinxing moved his lips, but before he could say anything, he heard Gu Wanqiu say another sentence.
"It was all my fault before... I shouldn't have lied to you, shouldn't have disrespected you, shouldn't have poisoned you... Now I admit my mistake and I apologize to you. I hope you can be magnanimous... and let me go and let me leave here..." Gu Wanqiu spoke these words intermittently, breathlessly.
Sure enough, he was overthinking it.
"You're dreaming of letting me let you go! When I was dying, I wanted to drag you along with me. Now that you're still alive, do you think I'll let you go so easily?"
Li Jinxing's cold gaze instantly woke Gu Wanqiu up from her dream.
"Li Jinxing, I beg you, please let me go, and let yourself go..."
Seeing Gu Wanqiu so fragile, Li Jinxing felt a pain in his heart. He couldn't let Gu Wanqiu go, and he couldn't let himself go either.
If he could let it go, he would have let it go long ago, and he wouldn't be suffering from hatred like this.
He hated the betrayal this woman had brought him, but he couldn't control the throbbing of his heart for this person. He repeatedly reminded himself that it was time to let go of this relationship, but the desire for Gu Wanqiu still rose in his heart.
Reason is out of control and emotions make mistakes again and again.
"What if..." Li Jinxing moved his lips slightly, muttering to himself, "What if I can't even let myself go?" Gu Wanqiu, because of you, I even hate myself. Tell me, how can I let you go? I want to correct this mistake of yours more than anyone else.
Li Jinxing roared in his heart, and the pain and misery in his eyes disappeared in an instant. Gu Wanqiu did not see that look, but Zhou Yi who was standing beside him saw it.
How could Li Jinxing, who had always been so high and mighty and inviolable, have ever been in such a state of disgrace? Zhou Yi felt bad and turned away, not wanting to read on.
Coughing sounds were heard.
Gu Wanqiu frowned, opened his mouth and coughed, gasping for breath, his chest shaking up and down, his throat burning with pain, as if his vocal cords were cut by a blade, and a fishy and sweet taste came from his throat.
She begged him to let her go, but he refused. She asked him to kill her, but he refused.
Gu Wanqiu looked at Li Jinxing weakly, then quickly looked away.
Gu Wanqiu was very scared, afraid that if she kept looking at Li Jinxing like this, she would burst into tears.
She suppressed her cough and choked up, saying, "Li Jinxing, one day... I will leave here... Even if you tie me up with a chain, even if... you lock me up forever, I will leave you... like a kite with a broken string... One day, I will go to a place... you will never be able to reach..."
Hearing these words from Gu Wanqiu, Li Jinxing's expression suddenly turned ferocious, his dark pupils surging in the dark, like a devil who had just returned from hell. In such a familiar atmosphere, Gu Wanqiu couldn't help but tremble, and his clenched teeth were shaking.
Li Jinxing suddenly pressed her down and stroked her face: "Then give it a try and see if you can escape from my control. Also, I want to see where you can go but I can't."
Gu Wanqiu closed her eyes.
Seeing that she looked half dead, Li Jinxing was in no mood to bother her. He stood up and asked Zhou Yi, "What time is it now?"
"It's almost three o'clock."
It was a bit early to leave at this time, but he didn't want to stay here any longer. He was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions and become violent towards Gu Wanqiu.
"Go to the school to pick up Siyan, Sixu and the others." Li Jinxing turned and left.
Zhou Yi gave Gu Wanqiu a complicated look and followed Li Jinxing.
It was too early to pick up the child at this time. He knew that Li Jinxing was finding an excuse to leave.
Li Jinxing held the handrail of the stairs and walked down with a staggering step. He saw the nanny and the confinement nanny standing together.
The nanny took the initiative to speak: "Mr. Li, are you leaving now?"
Li Jinxing nodded: "If she has any problems, please contact me at any time." After giving instructions to the nanny, he also instructed the confinement nanny, "Take good care of the child."
"Okay, Mr. Li." The two agreed together.
When Li Jinxing left, the tense atmosphere in Qiule Manor instantly dissipated.
After getting in the car, Zhou Yi said, "It's a bit early to pick up Siyan and Sixu now. They haven't finished school yet."
"Then wait at the school gate. I don't have anything to do today anyway."
That's it... Zhou Yi drove out. Since he was not in a hurry to get to school, he drove very slowly. On the way, he saw a bakery, which asked Zhou Yi to drive to the side and stop. He got out of the car and went into the bakery. He bought some desserts and biscuits. Seeing that there was milk tea in the store, he also bought two cups.
These are for the two kids.
Back in the car, Li Jinxing opened the bag and casually asked Zhou Yi, "Would you like some cookies?"
"I don't want to eat it. I'll leave it to Siyan and the others."
Li Jinxing put away the bag, leaned back in his chair and looked out the window: "Do you think I should let Gu Wanqiu go?"
Zhou Yi did not answer directly, but said, "You two are not suitable."
He paused, then continued, "What I think is useless. It mainly depends on you. Do you think you should let Gu Wanqiu go? If a relationship can't even bring the simplest happiness, why stay and suffer?"
Li Jinxing said self-deprecatingly: "Maybe I'm cheap. Gu Wanqiu said that, and it's true."
He took out a piece of white chocolate from the bag and put it in his mouth to let it melt slowly. The mellow sweetness of chocolate and milk slowly melted in his mouth. It is said that sweets can make people stay in a good mood, but for him, it is false and has no effect.
The car stopped at the school gate. Li Jinxing opened the car window to get some fresh air, with his hands on the window sill. He kept looking at the school gate. The school bell rang, and Li Jinxing got out of the car and leaned against the door. Zhou Yi followed him.
The two of them looked at the school gate together, and the moment Si Yan and Si Xu appeared, they saw them.
Siyan held Sixu's hand and looked for the driver at the door. The driver didn't see him, but saw two familiar figures. The little guy thought he was dazzled. He pointed in the direction of Li Jinxing and asked Sixu beside him: "Brother, I think I see Dad. He's right there. Am I seeing things? Is it fireworks?"
"That's right, that's Dad." As soon as Si Xu finished speaking, she let go of her brother's hand and ran towards Li Jinxing.
Siyan also started running, and the two brothers shouted "Dad" as they ran.
Just when they were about to rush up and hug Li Jinxing, the two brothers slammed on the brakes at the same time and stopped abruptly.
"Dad, are you okay?"
"Does it hurt?"
"Are you still dizzy?"
"Are you really able to be discharged from the hospital?" A series of questions came out of Si Yan Si Xu's mouth.
Li Jinxing quickly said, "Don't worry, Dad is fine now, and his discharge from the hospital has been approved by the doctor."
With his words, Si Yan and Si Xu's heart finally settled down. Then they walked over, each holding one of Li Jinxing's legs and holding him tightly.
Like a bird hiding from the rain under a big tree.
Li Jinxing couldn't pick them up as usual, so he could only squat down and hold the two brothers in his arms.
The three of them hugged each other quietly, and finally Zhou Yi, who was standing by, reminded them, "Get in the car first. The boss bought you milk tea and various desserts."
It was very rare for Li Jinxing to buy them a cake. Si Yan and Si Xu were distracted and opened the back door and got in obediently.
Li Jinxing also got on the back seat, picked up the bag on the passenger seat, and put a straw in the milk tea and handed it to Siyan Sixu.
Siyan had so many questions to ask. While drinking milk tea, he suddenly thought of his mother who also liked sweets.
"Dad, is Mom back?"
