In an instant, anger surged.
He was unable to think calmly, so he took a few steps forward, grabbed He Yanzhi's shoulder, and punched him.
"ah--"
When the punch landed, the sound was Ji Shuyu's scream.
He Yanzhi was caught off guard and staggered after being hit, and Ji Shuyu also fell down.
"Xiao Yu!" Gu Xiuyuan exclaimed.
He Yanzhi held her shoulders, and they both steadied themselves, then glared at Gu Xiuyuan.
Ji Shuyu stood firm, covering her scalp and glaring at Gu Xiuyuan angrily, "What are you crazy about?" She yelled, then turned around to look at He Yanzhi: "Are you okay?"
He Yanzhi smiled and shook his head.
Ji Shuyu covered her scalp with her hands, tears coming out of her eyes due to the pain.
Gu Xiuyuan was startled by the yelling. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw the hair tangled in He Yanzhi's button, but the words to apologize were stuck on his lips.
It was true that he had misunderstood this matter, but... why was her hair caught on his button?!
And He Yanzhi's hand was actually holding her shoulder?!
Does she know how to keep a proper distance from other men?
Because of the hard pulling just now, her hair was completely tangled. Ji Shuyu picked up the scissors she had found before, angrily cut off her hair, and then gave Gu Xiuyuan a fierce look.
"Xiao Yu..." Gu Xiuyuan's face was full of embarrassment.
There was an indescribable smile in He Yanzhi's eyes, as if... he was saying that he was childish!
This wasn't the first time he had such a disdainful look on his face.
Gu Xiuyuan was upset, but he still stepped forward to look at Ji Shuyu: "Xiaoyu, I'm so sorry."
He raised his arm to push her hair aside, then took a deep breath and frowned in feigned pain.
But this time, Ji Shuyu ignored him.
"Xiaoyu, I'll leave first." He Yanzhi said, glancing at Gu Xiuyuan, "The injury is on the shoulder, so it's better to use less force."
He smiled and walked past Gu Xiuyuan, leaning closer to his ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "The force is even weaker than the previous times."
It wasn't a malicious provocation, but it made Gu Xiuyuan so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Gu Xiuyuan recalled that every time he had a conflict with him, it seemed like he happened to be injured.
He felt really depressed because of being "despised" like this.
"Have a good rest. I came here in a hurry last time and didn't bring anything. I wish Mr. Gu a speedy recovery."
Gu Xiuyuan glared at the fruit basket on the table and called the nurse to take it away.
He Yanzhi didn't care, "Xiaoyu, see you this weekend."
"Okay." Ji Shuyu walked him out of the ward.
Before leaving, He Yanzhi couldn't help but remind him: "Be careful on the road next time."
Ji Shuyu felt a little embarrassed. If he hadn't pulled her back in time, she would have been hit by the patient's trolley. "I know. Thank you for that."
He Yanzhi shook his head to indicate that it was nothing.
When he turned around, he saw the hair on his button, he gently untied it and wrapped it around his finger, a smile appearing on his lips.
When Ji Shuyu returned to the ward, her expression was not the same as before, and Gu Xiuyuan's attention was focused on the three words "see you on the weekend", so he didn't notice.
Where are they going?
Shouldn't she be taking care of him in the hospital at this time?
Ji Shuyu put away the scissors and sent a message to Ke Manning.
"Where are you going?"
Ji Shuyu didn't answer.
Gu Xiuyuan took a few steps forward: "Answer me!"
He was a little angry, and was also expressing his jealousy.
"Why hit people?" Ji Shuyu frowned.
"..." Gu Xiuyuan choked, "I thought he... was hugging you." His voice became lower and lower as he spoke.
Oh……
Her laughter made Gu Xiuyuan's heart sink.
"So what if he hugs me?" Ji Shuyu frowned. "It's my personal business, just like where I'm going."
Looking at her face that suddenly turned as cold as ice, Gu Xiuyuan's heart felt as if it had sunk into an icy cave.
Her appearance at this moment made all the joy in her heart vanish into thin air.
Now, every move she made told him that she stayed here out of gratitude.
Seeing the hurt in his eyes, Ji Shuyu turned her face away, pretending not to see it.
She has been too emotional these past two days, and this is not a good sign for her.
Now that you've broken up, don't let yourself be swayed by other emotions.
She was here only because he was injured while saving her. When he recovered, they would still have to return to their respective orbits.
Gu Xiuyuan felt a sharp pain in his heart, and his hands at his sides slowly clenched.
Because of He Yanzhi?
It was only when he appeared again that her attitude changed...
"The nurse just came to inform me that there will be a CT scan this afternoon..."
She put down her phone and turned around, and Gu Xiuyuan was looking at her.
Unlike the cheerful smile before, his eyes were filled with pain.
"What's wrong?" she asked calmly.
"If I hadn't been injured because of you, would you have never stayed?"
Ji Shuyu paused slightly. "That's not the case." She said very naturally, "There will be a visit when it's due."
"visit?"
Oh……
It turns out that even when you are extremely sad, you can still laugh.
Gu Xiuyuan looked at her. Her appearance at this moment made him feel that the hope he had in his heart before was just delusion.
He thought that after living and dying together, she would understand his feelings...
cough……
He covered his chest and suddenly started coughing violently.
The violent shock not only shook my entire chest, but also caused severe pain in my shoulders.
Ji Shuyu looked at him worriedly and stepped forward, "Xiu..."
Gu Xiuyuan looked up, catching the worry in her eyes. He grabbed her wrist. "You clearly care about me, so why are you being so cold and indifferent to hurt me?"
Ji Shuyu was annoyed when her thoughts were exposed, and even more angry at herself because she had clearly promised not to let him control her emotions anymore, but she still couldn't bear to see him in pain.
"Perhaps, you can understand it as a habit."
I'm used to caring about him, used to feeling heartbroken because of him, but some habits must be broken.
"What did you say?" Gu Xiuyuan grabbed her wrist.
"I said, you can treat it as a habit." Ji Shuyu repeated.
"Even if they were strangers, I wouldn't remain indifferent, especially since we grew up together!"
Gu Xiuyuan's face turned even paler. He couldn't remain indifferent to a stranger.
"Why?" He was puzzled. Why did it become like this? Everything was fine before.
"I just think we should all be mindful of our attitudes and distance," she said seriously. "There's been a lot going on these past two days, and I might have done a lot of things that were beyond my station. I'll be more careful in the future."
Those things, those hurts, cannot be resolved by just saying "misunderstanding".
"I know I love you a lot, but right now I have nothing to repay you..."
"Who wants you to repay me!!" Gu Xiuyuan shouted loudly.
cough--
He covered his chest, but ignored the pain, "Ji Shuyu, why do you think I do so many things?"
Ji Shuyu lowered her eyes, then looked up at him after a moment: "It doesn't matter anymore."
“…” Gu Xiuyuan froze.
After going through so much, he thought she would understand.
But now, she actually said it wasn't important? !
He bent over in pain, holding his chest, but this time she didn't care about him as much as before. She just pulled her hand away and turned away.
My heart aches.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Gu Xiuyuan took a few steps over and pulled her into his arms, kissing her fiercely...
