Chapter 49: Living Your Life for Others

Lin Du shook Qin Chang's hand and asked, "Has your boyfriend ever thought about taking you away from here?"

Qin Chang was stunned, and after a moment, he pursed his lips: "He... he should have thought about it, but we don't have the ability to change our current life, so maintaining the status quo is the best way."

"What does your boyfriend do?" Lin Du tested cautiously. He was not a person who was used to prying into other people's privacy, but Qin Chang was his only friend and he didn't want him to get hurt.

"The lead singer of the bar." Qin Chang sighed.

Lin Du nodded, he had a lot to tell Qin Chang. But he was tongue-tied and didn't know how to tactfully tell Qin Chang to be careful.

But Qin Chang is smarter than himself, and he thinks he should be able to take good care of himself.

"Okay, don't worry about me. But you, if you don't come here anymore, will you forget about me?"

"How could that be?" Lin Du held Qin Chang's hand, his voice choking with sobs, "You are my only friend."

Qin Chang hugged Lin Du happily: "My only friend, you must be happy."

With a sour nose and moist eyes, Lin Du hugged Qin Chang tightly: "You have to be happy too."

Qin Chang waved to Lin Du. He was really happy for him to see that he could find happiness again.

After adjusting his breathing, Qin Chang was grabbed by the arm and dragged into an alley before he could even turn around.

Before he could even scream, someone covered his mouth.

After seeing that the person coming was her boyfriend Xue Kaiming, Qin Chang sighed helplessly: "You scared me."

"Stop talking nonsense. Did you ask your friend for money?" Xue Kaiming was obviously a little impatient.

Qin Chang licked the injured corner of his mouth. In fact, the reason why Xue Kaiming attacked him this time was because he wanted money from him.

Because he lent the money to Lin Du, he did not satisfy Xue Kaiming this time.

Xue Kaiming, angry and humiliated, completely took off his disguise, beat himself up, and forced himself to get the money back.

But Qin Chang knew that Lin Du had no money, so he couldn't ask him for money at all, and he had no intention of asking Lin Du to pay the money back from the beginning.

"You're dumb when I ask you a fucking question?" Xue Kaiming pinched Qin Chang's neck, tightening his fingers. "No, right? Then go in and sell it, don't stand here and waste time."

Qin Chang covered his neck, leaned against the wall in pain and coughed violently: "I... understand."

"I warn you not to play tricks on me. I have the leverage over you!" Xue Kaiming snorted, "If I release that recording, you'll spend your life in prison."

Qin Chang's body went limp and he sat paralyzed on the ground.

Looking at Xue Kaiming's back, he hugged himself helplessly.

He drank a lot that night and let the cat out of the bag when he was being intimate with Xue Kaiming.

In fact, he killed not only his father, but also his father's lover.

This matter had been buried in his heart for more than ten years, and it made him feel suffocated.

He thought he would forget it over time, but he didn't. He often dreamed of the two people he killed with his own hands.

But if he doesn't regret it, they deserve to die.

They were the ones who forced his mother to death, so they don't deserve to live.

He opened his trembling hands, as if they were covered in blood.

Back in the hospital, Lin Yue was awake for a rare moment.

"elder brother."

Seeing Lin Yue's complexion gradually getting better, Lin Du felt happy in his heart. He was happy for her when he thought that in the near future, Lin Yue would be able to live like a normal girl.

But what about himself? Lin Du seemed to have forgotten himself.

His whole life seemed to be lived for others.

"Brother, will that gentleman come tomorrow?"

Lin Du was stunned for a moment: "Who?"

"The gentleman who was very close to you, the one who promised to save my life."

Lin Du pursed his lips: "I don't know, what do you want to see him for?"

Lin Yue squinted his eyes and looked very happy: "I want to thank him in person."

I should really thank Gu Xinchi. Without him, I don’t know what I would do.

"Brother, what's his name?"

"Disappointing."

Lin Yue repeated in a low voice: "Brother, if Mr. Gu comes tomorrow and I fall asleep, please thank him for me."

"good."

"Brother, how did you two meet in high school?"

Lin Du frowned slightly, lowered his head and tickled his fingers: "Why are you asking this suddenly?"

Lin Yue pursed her lips: "I'm just a little curious."

"He helped me a few times when he saw me being bullied, so we became more familiar with each other later." Not wanting to tell Lin Yue too much about himself and Gu Penchi, Lin Du had to just say a few words about it.

Afraid that Gu Yanchi would learn something from Lin Yue, Lin Du warned Lin Yue in advance: "Don't mention the past events at home to him, including whether Shen Rong knew about it?"

"Why?" Lin Yue was puzzled.

"Anyway, if you want him to save you, don't mention it." Lin Du said with a serious expression.

Lin Yue nodded without asking further questions: "Brother, why do you look so pale? Are you too tired recently?"

Lin Du touched his face and said, "No, just be obedient, I'm fine."

Lin Yue lowered his eyes, clenched his fist in pain, and pulled the needle hole on his hand painfully.

Gu Nichi is very busy, but he still finds time to come here every day.

Lin Du advised him several times not to run back and forth, but he refused.

Lin Yue had a checkup today and felt very tired. He fell asleep as soon as he returned to the ward.

Lin Du sat alone in front of the window in a daze, looking at the familiar car. He knew it was Gu Lianchi coming.

He stood up and walked out unconsciously, only stopping when he saw Gu Yanchi.

After coming back to his senses, he felt ashamed again. Why was he so impulsive? In order to prevent Gu Yanchi from noticing something strange, Lin Du had to pretend to go out.

"Are you here to pick me up?" Gu Nichi walked towards me with a gentle smile in his eyes.

He lowered his head and said nothing, wanting to deny it, but in the end he nodded.

He is indeed not good at lying, especially in front of Gu Yanchi.

"I'm so happy." Gu Nichi took Lin Du's hand and rubbed it gently, "Don't run out next time, just wait for me in the room."

He didn't say anything, just nodded. Lin Du thought that Gu Jinchi would not laugh at him for being so proactive, after all, he was always smiling happily.

Arriving at the ward, I checked on Lin Yue's condition and listened carefully to the nurse's description of the day.

Gu Yanchi nodded slightly, very satisfied: "Take good care of Lin Yue, I won't treat you badly."

Lin Du's eyes moved back and forth between Gu Yinchi and his own hands. His eyes always looked at Gu Yinchi uncontrollably, but when he came back to his senses, he felt ashamed.

Gu Niechi glanced at Lin Du with disdain, and as he watched the prey approaching little by little, the corners of his mouth curled up with satisfaction.

"Come here." Gu Nichi chuckled and patted his legs.

Lin Du approached cautiously, and Gu Jinchi reached out and pulled him, holding him in his arms.

Lin Du was startled, tensing his body uncomfortably. This was a hospital after all, and what if Lin Yue woke up and saw it? How would he explain it?

Feeling the rejection from Lin Du's body, Gu Jinchi buried his face in the crook of his neck, his voice a little tired: "Lin Du, I'm tired, let me hold you for a while."
