Gu Xiuyuan staggered out of the ward.
After he went out, he heard low, suppressed crying coming from the ward.
She was crying for their baby, and it seemed like she was crying too... She was finally free.
If I had known you were in so much pain, Xiaoyu...I would have let you go.
…
Ji Shuyu's surgery was scheduled for three days later, and she remained calm about the surgery.
But only Gu Xiuyuan knew that every night when he secretly went over to her, her pillow was wet and her eyes were swollen every day.
He knew that she couldn't let go and was reluctant, but she had to do it.
Giving birth to an unhealthy baby is irresponsible to the child, not to mention... this baby is destined not to be born.
The night before the operation, she was awake when he went to see her in the ward.
Almost subconsciously, he turned around and tried to move, only to find that she was calmer than ever.
Perhaps selfish thoughts took over at that moment, and he stopped eagerly, then slowly approached...
Ji Shuyu didn't turn around when she heard the footsteps.
Because no one except medical staff will come into this ward.
Gu Xiuyuan slowly moved to her side, not daring to get too close, and neither of them said a word...
After a long time, he finally mustered up the courage to kiss her.
"Xiao Yu."
Since he agreed, she never spoke to him again. He could only come to see her when she was asleep...
"We'll go handle the formalities tomorrow." Ji Shuyu said calmly.
Gu Xiuyuan's body stiffened. It seemed that she allowed him to come in just to say this.
His throat seemed to be blocked, and after a long time, he managed to utter a single word with difficulty: "T."
"Today... I'll let Zhou Rui." He breathed in pain, "Send the agreement here."
Ji Shuyu shook her head, "I don't want anything."
The Gu family doesn't care about her.
"Yuyuan also has..."
"No."
His hurried words were interrupted calmly.
All her painful memories were there, and she didn't want anything to do with him. "I don't want anything..."
After standing for too long, she felt a little tired and slowly returned to the bed.
Gu Xiuyuan turned around as she moved, then stood by the windowsill, watching her lie down with her back to him.
From now on, can he only look at her back like this?
He wanted to go forward and hug her again, to touch her belly and feel their baby, but... he was not qualified to do so.
No one slept that night, and Gu Xiuyuan never left.
But time passed quickly, and it seemed as if it was only a blink of an eye before daybreak...
There were sounds outside the ward, and the medical staff began to prepare for the operation.
Watching his beloved little girl cooperating with the doctor to prepare for the operation, he felt that with each task completed, she was getting further away from him...
After standing all night, Gu Xiuyuan was completely numb. The moment he picked up the pen, his heart was torn apart.
This was the first time he signed something as a husband, and it wasn't to abort their baby.
Looking at the frail figure heading towards the operating room, he closed his eyes in pain, and then signed his name with great pain.
"Xiao Yu."
Gu Xiuyuan rushed over and hugged her from behind.
I’m sorry, I’m sorry…
He had his arms around her, his hands white from clenching so tightly.
Ji Shuyu felt his hands trembling, lowered her eyes to look at them, raised her hands to gently hold them, and then pushed them away.
The door of the operating room slowly closed, and her figure slowly disappeared from sight...
Gu Xiuyuan leaned against the wall weakly.
I was given intravenous general anesthesia and the doctor said the operation would take thirty minutes.
Time was so long that every second was so unbearable, and he felt like he had lived through several lifetimes.
He stared at the words "In Operation" the whole time. The glaring red was madly torturing his heart. Remembering the doctor's words that the operation was over, his nerves tightened inch by inch...
Finally, the lights went out.
Before the nerves collapsed, the operating room door opened.
Gu Xiuyuan walked forward quickly and saw Ji Shuyu lying on the hospital bed. His heart skipped a beat, and the string seemed to have broken.
Her cheeks were pale without a trace of blood, and there were traces of tears in the corners of her eyes.
Holding her cold little hand, Gu Xiuyuan felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He leaned over little by little, and with trembling lips, he gently placed a kiss on her lips...
Snap!
A drop of transparent liquid fell quickly, dripped into Ji Shuyu's hair, and then quickly disappeared.
Ji Shuyu's fingertips moved slightly. She heard someone calling her name and slowly opened her eyes.
I've returned to the ward, my hand slowly moving to my lower abdomen, my heart feeling empty and painful.
She still couldn't keep her baby.
"Xiao Yu, how are you? Does it hurt..." Gu Xiuyuan's voice trembled, and he wished he could bear everything for her.
Looking at Gu Xiuyuan, whose eyes were slightly red beside the bed, she calmly pulled away the hand he was holding.
"Is Zhou Rui here?" Her voice was weak and feeble, yet so calm and firm.
Gu Xiuyuan's body stiffened, his hands slowly clenched, and then he nodded heavily.
"The doctor said we need to stay in the hospital for observation."
Before, he was looking forward to the surgery being over soon. Now that the surgery was finally over, it also meant that their relationship had entered the countdown...
"No need." She refused, then lifted the quilt and stood up.
"Xiao Yu." Gu Xiuyuan stopped her, "Zhou Rui is still on the way, don't move, lie down for a while."
Seeing her so anxious, Gu Xiuyuan felt so painful that he couldn't breathe. She seemed unwilling to stay with him for even a second longer.
He had anticipated that she would be unwilling to wait, so he asked Zhou Rui to wait until he had enough rest time before coming in, but no matter how much he delayed, the time was still up.
He wanted to say: I have always said that I would take you out to play, but every time something unexpected happened. Let’s go out and play for two days first!
I want to say: Can we go and do it together when you feel better?
I want to say: Xiaoyu, please think about it again...
Zhou Rui brought in the agreement and left, leaving only the two of them in the ward.
"After you finish the paperwork, go home and rest for a month." He added hastily, "I'll move, and I promise not to show up in front of you."
"No need, it's just a minor operation." Ji Shuyu picked up the pen.
"Xiao Yu!" He grabbed her hand.
Can't you really think about it again?
Give me another chance, please...
But no matter how loudly I cried in my heart, I finally let go.
"I promise I won't show up. Consider this my last request, okay?"
Ji Shuyu didn't answer.
She didn't want to waste her breath on the small apartment her grandmother had bought her, the other properties, and the generous alimony. She just wanted her to stay out of it.
Brush——
Just like that day when I saw her signing the consent form for surgery, it was heartbreaking.
She handed him the pen, went to change her clothes, and came out after a while.
Once they signed their names, their relationship was over.
My heart aches so much that I can't put pen to paper.
He could feel her staring at him, silently urging him...
"Xiao Yu..." He called her name, his eyes swollen.
Is it really not possible?
If he could, he would be willing to exchange everything he had for an opportunity, but... he saw her looking at the time.
The pen still falls.
These three words almost used up all my strength.
In fact, the divorce agreement was delivered yesterday.
It's just that he didn't want to say it, as if as long as he didn't say it and didn't sign, they would still be husband and wife.
But in the end they still got to this point.
The agreement is signed, and then... it's the Civil Affairs Bureau.
