Chapter 88 Why Let Go

His breathing became more and more rapid, and Lin Du collapsed on the ground.

The door was so soundproofed that he couldn't hear any sound except his own breathing. He fumbled for the switch to open the door, but found nothing.

Despair and fear alternately stimulated Lin Du's fragile nerves. In the end, he couldn't control himself and shouted desperately.

But it was as if someone had stuffed a piece of hot iron into his throat, and he managed to utter a hoarse cry: "Gu Nienchi..."

“It’s so dark…”

"I'm afraid."

Tears rolled down his face like beads from a broken string, and his body felt as if it was torn apart. Countless ants drilled into his body through the cracks and fed on his flesh and blood.

"Gu... Gu Nichi, it's so dark..." Lin Du grabbed the door like crazy, his fingertips were bleeding, "Gu Nichi, where are you, save me..."

No one responded to him, and the dead silence tortured his last bit of sanity.

The moment he fainted, it was as if all his strength had been drained from his body, and even his fingertips were shaking. He felt helpless, as if he had been sucked into an endless abyss, and no matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape.

Gu Nichi rushed to the hospital. Su Wenlang was surrounded by a group of people. When they saw Gu Nichi coming, they unconsciously stepped aside.

Su Wenlang's eyes were red and swollen, and he looked pitiful. He felt even more aggrieved when he saw Gu Xinchi.

"It's okay, it's okay." Gu Nichi hugged Su Wenlang distressedly and comforted him softly, "Have you checked? Where is the injury?"

"My calf is broken." Su Wenlang sobbed, "My scenes haven't been filmed yet. Will they replace me?"

"They don't dare." Gu Yinchi glanced coldly at the director standing beside him.

The director walked forward with great foresight, nodding and bowing to indicate that the play would definitely wait for Su Wenlang to recover and would definitely not replace him.

Gu Nienchi waved his hand and let the crowd go.

Su Wenlang leaned into Gu Niechi's arms and grabbed his hand: "I thought I would never see you again."

Gu frowned and couldn't help but scolded softly: "What nonsense!"

"Really." Su Wenlang hugged Gu Xinchi tightly, "You don't know how scared I was at that time. I thought that even if I die, you must let me see you again."

Gu Yanchi lifted Su Wenlang's chin and kissed him on the lips: "Be good and take care of yourself. Be obedient."

"Are you leaving?" Su Wenlang grabbed Gu Xinchi in a panic, and said in a trembling voice, "Will you stay with me for a while?"

Su Wenlang looked so pitiful, who wouldn't feel sorry for him? She hugged him tightly and coaxed him softly, "Okay, I'll accompany you."

"What happened to your face?" Su Wenlang stroked Gu Nichi's cheek, "Who hit you?"

Gu Yanchi pulled his hand down: "It's okay, my dad beat me."

"Your father has come to Beichuan?" Su Wenlang was startled. "Is he here to force you to marry the daughter of the Lin family again?"

Tired of silence.

"Did he meet Lin Du?" Su Wenlang asked curiously.

Gu Penchi was startled suddenly, and only then did he remember that Lin Du was still in the secret room.

Su Wenlang was startled, and looked at Gu Xinchi in confusion: "What...what's wrong? Are you so excited when I mention him?"

Su Wenlang smiled bitterly, as if the whole world had become dark and gloomy, and his heart was broken: "Didn't you say you wouldn't fall in love with him? Then why are you so nervous about him now?"

"I said, everything is for him to give birth to the baby. You also saw how hard my father pushed. You just listen and take good care of yourself. I will come to see you tomorrow." Gu Yinchi held Su Wenlang's face, gave him a quick kiss, then turned and left.

"Gu Ti Chi..."

Su Wenlang pounded the hospital bed angrily and covered his face in pain.

He was unwilling to accept this, as he had been the one accompanying Gu Xichi during the loneliest years. But everything changed when Lin Du showed up.

"Drive faster." Gu Yanchi urged.

Wen Qing nodded and stepped on the accelerator.

He opened the door and rushed into the living room, then Gu Lanchi pressed the password to open the door of the secret room.

The huge shock that came into view made his eyes, which had always been cold, tremble.

Lin Du lay on the ground in a painful posture, his hands stained with blood.

The expression on Gu Neichi's face froze instantly, as if all the blood had been drained out of him, leaving only an expression of unbelievable shock.

For a moment, I felt so heartbroken as if my heart was pierced mercilessly, it was hard to breathe and I couldn't bear it.

"Mr. Gu, this..."

Wen Qing was startled and rushed over to pick up Lin Du.

"Who the hell told you to touch him?" Gu Nishi roared. At this moment, he was obviously a little flustered. "Drive!"

Sitting in the car holding Lin Du, the tear marks on his face were particularly glaring.

Carefully pulling away the bloody hand, Gu Yanchi couldn't bear to look at it any longer.

He hugged Lin Du subconsciously, and at this moment it seemed that his hatred was not as strong as before.

When they arrived at the hospital, Zhuo Chengze looked at him with disdain: "You are too cruel, look at what you have done to the patient."

Gu Penchi no longer had his usual arrogance. He crossed his fingers and placed them on his forehead.

"Don't you know that claustrophobia can be fatal?" Zhuo Chengze shook his head helplessly.

Gu Niechi lowered his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "The situation was urgent at the time. I had no choice. If my father found out, he would be dead for sure."

Zhuo Chengze rubbed his brows, it was really difficult to deal with.

After treating the wound, Gu Nichi stood quietly beside the bed, looking at Lin Du who was still in a coma.

He didn't dare to think about how helpless he was at that time. His fingertips lightly stroked Lin Du's pale face and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It would have been great if that mess hadn't happened ten years ago."

But, there are not so many ifs.

Lin Du slept for a long time...

"Gu Nichi..." Lin Du, who was still not awake, cried with grievance, "Where are you? It's so dark..."

Gu Yinchi was startled and his heart skipped a beat.

He couldn't help but wonder, was Lin Du calling him the same way when he was locked in the secret room?

Although her mind was in a mess, her hand had already reached out, carefully holding Lin Du's hand, and kissed it softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Gu Yanchi..." Lin Du cried out, tears falling from the corners of his tightly closed eyes, "Gu Yanchi..."

My heart was hurt and I was tired of relaxing my wrinkled brows.

He didn't know why he had this reaction. Shouldn't he have always hated him? Why did he still feel sorry for him?

His thoughts were in disarray and he could no longer think normally.

He hated this feeling; it made him sick.

How could he feel sorry for him? He must be crazy to feel sorry for someone who had stabbed him twice in the back.

Letting go of Lin Du's hand, Gu Yanchi rushed out of the ward.

She pushed open the door of Zhuo Chengze's office with annoyance, biting a cigarette and lighting it several times before it finally lit up.

Zhuo Chengze walked over speechlessly and closed the door. He glanced at the distraught Gu Xinchi and frowned: "What are you talking about?"

Tired of silence.

"You don't really hate Lin Du that much, do you?"

Gu Niechi's hand holding the cigarette trembled uncontrollably. He took a deep breath of smoke and exhaled slowly.

The lingering smoke obscured his complex eyes, preventing anyone from peeking into his thoughts.

"Since you don't hate him that much, why not let him go? It will be good for both you and him."

Let go? Why should I let go? He owed me this, so I should pay him back.

He couldn't let Lin Du leave him. He should be trapped by him for the rest of his life, with no control over his life or death.

Gu Xinchi was shrouded in darkness, with twisted thoughts churning in his mind. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to his familiar self.
