164. Act quickly, take your child and leave immediately.
Gu Huaikun slammed his hand on the armrest, his whole body filled with rage.
How could she poison Xiaxia! That's her sister! Gu Huaikun glared angrily at Axin, but after hearing his words, Axin coldly snorted, swayed her slender waist, and walked a few steps to Gu Huaikun, her lips full of sarcasm.
"You still remember that Gu Mingxia is my sister, but when she hurt my mother, did you remember that Bai Hua was your wife? Although she wasn't the rightful Mrs. Gu, she still gave birth to your child, didn't she?"
Ah Xin's sarcasm deepened, and Gu Huaikun's expression froze. Yes, after all, he was the one who brought Bai Hua to the Gu family, but later he watched helplessly as Gu Mingxia stabbed her with a dagger and committed suicide by cutting her wrists in resentment.
Back then, he chose to protect Xiaxia. Now, does that mean he no longer has the right to blame Axin for harming Xiaxia? But Xiaxia is Nanlan's only child! How can he just stand by and watch Xiaxia get hurt time and time again?
"You didn't stop Gu Mingxia from what she did to my mother back then, so what right do you have to blame me now? Now that you know, I'm not afraid to tell you directly that I will make Gu Mingxia pay with her life for my mother's!"
When Ah Xin spoke, there was a deep hatred in her eyes, a hatred that made Gu Huaikun tremble with fear, and he didn't even know what to say to her.
If he had known from the beginning that she came back to harm Xiaxia, would he still have let her into the Gu family? Exposing the video from back then would damage Xiaxia's reputation, but keeping Axin in the Gu family would also hurt Xiaxia. Gu Huaikun felt an indescribable pain in his heart.
Ultimately, it's all his own fault. If he hadn't gotten into so many romantic entanglements back then, how could Xiaxia and Axin have ended up fighting each other like this?
"Ah Xin, what's past is past. Don't go against Xia Xia anymore. I... I will definitely make up for all the pain you've suffered over the years, okay?"
Gu Huaikun asked the question cautiously, his eyes pleading. When A Xin met Gu Huaikun's gaze, the sarcasm on her lips intensified.
"You'll compensate me? With money? Too bad I'm not short of money! Or will you bring my mother back to life, or at least allow me to regain my right to be a mother? If none of these are possible, then don't talk to me about compensation!"
Ah Xin's words plunged Gu Huaikun into despair. It seemed she was determined to kill Xia Xia, and he began to regret his hasty decision to let her into the Gu family.
"Is there anything else you want to tell me? If not, then I'll go back and rest."
Ah Xin glanced coldly at Gu Huaikun. Although that's what she said, she left without waiting for Gu Huaikun's reply, swaying her hips as she went.
Gu Huaikun looked at A Xin's alluring figure, his eyes filled with regret, yet he knew that he couldn't blame anyone else for this; the culprit was himself.
"Lin Fu, do you think I've ruined those two sisters?"
Lin Fu walked up to him, handed him a glass of water, and sighed helplessly.
"Master, the past is the past, don't think about it so much."
Gu Huaikun's eyes were filled with confusion. Could it be that once it was over, it could be treated as if it had never happened? Whether he wanted to or not, Xia Xia and A Xin were destined to be enemies for life, and he was the one who had caused all of this!
"Call Xiao Yan and ask how Xia Xia is doing."
As he spoke, Gu Huaikun leaned back in his chair listlessly. Lin Fu responded and then called Xiao Yan. After exchanging only a few words, Lin Fu quickly hung up.
"Mr. Xiao said that the young lady is currently receiving emergency treatment at the First Hospital, but the specific details are still unclear."
Since it's a rescue operation, the situation is definitely not optimistic. Gu Huaikun sighed and closed his eyes wearily.
"Prepare a car to take me to the hospital."
At the First Hospital, Xiao Yan, Liu Yan, Zheng Liu, and others sat anxiously on chairs outside the emergency room.
Xiao Yan's face was serious, his eyes fixed on the emergency room door, while Liu Yan kept wiping away tears. It was because of her that Xia Xia was poisoned by A Xin, and this time she felt so guilty she was about to die. Zheng Liu sat beside her, carefully comforting her. Liu Yan was so heartbroken that she nestled in Zheng Liu's arms and sobbed softly.
How is Xiaxia?
Lin Fu pushed Gu Huaikun, who was sitting in a wheelchair. When he saw Xiao Yan, his face showed undisguised anxiety and worry. Xiao Yan got up, looked at Gu Huaikun, and then at the flashing red light above the emergency room. His brows furrowed slightly.
"They're already trying to save him, but we don't know the specifics yet."
Xiao Yan's words made Gu Huaikun's brows furrow tightly. He looked at the emergency room with a serious expression, but in his heart he was praying that Xia Xia would be alright.
The atmosphere was unusually heavy. No one spoke; they all sat there quietly. Xiao Yan's hands were clenched tightly together. He didn't know what he was feeling; only one thought occupied his mind: Xia Xia must be alright. Xiao Yan didn't even dare to think about what he would do if something happened to Xia Xia.
Gu Huaikun's already unclear eyes are now even more murky. In the end, it is because he has committed too many sins that his children have suffered so much. First it was A Dong, then Xia Xia, and now there is A Xin. Family members are estranged, and sisters are killing each other!
Alan, if you have a spirit in heaven, please bless Xiaxia so that nothing bad happens to her and that she gets better soon.
Xiaxia, you must be strong. Think of Adong, think of your mother, you must hold on, defeat the toxins in your body, you must be alright. You're my only family now, you must never abandon me. If you want to hate me, then you have to be alright. Only when you're alright will you have the strength to hate me. Xiaxia, I don't ask for anything else, I only ask that you live a good life.
Finally, amidst everyone's worry and anxiety, the emergency room door opened. Misha, wearing a white coat, walked out. Xiao Yan was the first to rush over, while Liu Yan wanted to go over but was afraid of hearing bad news. She felt weak all over and didn't even have the strength to stand up. Zheng Liu held the person in his arms tightly, looking at Misha with worried and anxious eyes.
"Misha, how is my wife?"
Although the two are not yet married, Xiao Yan still addresses Gu Mingxia as "wife". After hearing his words, Gu Huaikun frowned slightly, but still turned his gaze to Misha.
"Miss Gu was brought in just in time. After emergency treatment, the aconitine in her body has been completely removed. If she had arrived any later, you might have had to prepare for her passing!"
Misha's voice was devoid of any emotion; her words always carried a cold tone. Upon hearing her say this, Xiao Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, and his expression relaxed.
Upon hearing Misha's words, Liu Yan, who was standing to the side, burst into tears. All her worries and fears could no longer be contained when Misha said that Gu Mingxia was alright. She buried her head in Zheng Liu's arms and cried loudly.
"It's alright, Mingxia is alright. Don't be too sad."
Zheng Liu put his arm around Liu Yan's shoulder and gently comforted her. Liu Yan's crying subsided, but she was still sobbing softly in Zheng Liu's arms.
"Will my daughter have any long-term effects after she recovers?"
Gu Huaikun calmly voiced his doubts. Misha pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses and looked at Gu Huaikun with a sharp glint in her eyes.
"Don't worry, Miss Gu won't suffer any lasting effects."
Hearing Misha say that, Gu Huaikun breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Xiaxia was alright, he could finally relax.
Meanwhile, in the Bai family's villa, Bai Zixuan sat on the floor of the study with several empty wine bottles scattered around him, and the whole room was filled with the smell of alcohol.
He was holding a large wine bottle in his hand, his eyes somewhat dazed, looking at a photo frame on the ground opposite him, which contained photos taken when he and Gu Mingxia got married.
"Xiaxia, how could you say such heartless things to upset me? I know you still have feelings for me. You only agreed to Xiao Yan's proposal to spite me, right?"
As he muttered these words to himself, Bai Zixuan felt another pang of sadness. How could he have been so blinded by greed to divorce Gu Mingxia? Why was it that when Gu Mingxia was with him, she always looked natural and unadorned, but after the divorce, she dressed up like a fairy descended from heaven?
"Xiaxia, you have no idea how much I want to be with you, but why won't you admit that you still have feelings for me?"
After Bai Zixuan finished speaking, he tilted his head back and took another big gulp of wine. Just thinking about what Gu Mingxia had said filled him with an indescribable sense of resentment.
They had been married for seven years. How could she just say it's over like that? No, she must be angry with herself, she must still be angry about him being with Ye Xiaorou.
Yes, that must be it! As soon as Bai Zixuan thought this, he immediately leaned against the wall and staggered out. His legs were still trembling as he went up the stairs, and he kept murmuring Gu Mingxia's name.
"Ye Xiaorou, come out here!"
"Are you trying to kill me? You're so drunk and shouting so loudly. If you wake up our son, I'll never forgive you!"
Ye Xiaorou, dressed in her pajamas, blocked the stairwell. When she saw Bai Zixuan's appearance, she felt an indescribable disgust.
"Why are you up here instead of sleeping in the guest room downstairs?"
"Ye Xiaorou, weren't you only with me for money? Now I'll give it to you, I'll give you ten million... You... you take the child and disappear from Xiangcheng immediately, and from now on... never come looking for me again!"
Bai Zixuan leaned against the wall and fell asleep while talking, but he was still mumbling what he hadn't finished saying.
"I want to get back together with Xiaxia because she's angry with you and that child. So you have to leave quickly, take your child and leave! Hurry... leave, leave!"
