Chapter 284 Awake, I want to see her.
After Xiao Yan finished speaking, Gu Mingxia fell silent.
Not receiving a reply from Gu Mingxia, Xiao Yan felt his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
After a long while, Gu Mingxia finally spoke softly.
"Let's talk about it later. Baby needs to sleep. Hang up now."
"Okay, then you should get some rest. Call me if you need anything."
Gu Mingxia hummed in agreement and hung up the phone.
She didn't know why she didn't agree to Xiao Yan's suggestion to reconcile. In her heart, she hoped to reconcile, but with the opportunity presented to her, Gu Mingxia suddenly didn't know whether doing so was the right or wrong thing to do.
Because she felt that her feelings for Xiao Yan were no longer as strong as they used to be. Although her feelings hadn't changed, she didn't know whether what they had now was love or familial affection.
If two people who don't love each other are forced together for the sake of their daughter, that kind of family probably won't be happy!
Is it more important to have a complete but unhappy family, or to have a mother who loves her and a father who loves her?
Gu Mingxia herself didn't know either. She felt it was a particularly difficult question to answer, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
The next day, Gu Mingxia got up early and went to Lanyue Tower to see Gu Huaikun.
During this period, Gu Huaikun remained in a dazed and confused state. Every time he saw Gu Mingxia, he would still say the same thing: drive away the bad guys and protect the Gu family.
This also shows how important the Gu family is to Gu Huaikun. Gu Mingxia didn't want to instill anything in him. Sometimes, she even felt that it was not bad to let Gu Huaikun stay in his current state. It was much better than waking up and facing the situation where his beloved was scheming against him!
"Has the young lady had breakfast?"
Qin Yueru has become increasingly beautiful and charming. Gu Mingxia knows that she still goes out to meet with young men from time to time, but as long as it doesn't affect her taking care of Gu Huaikun, Gu Mingxia just turns a blind eye to it.
"Not yet. I'll have dinner with Dad today. Miss Qin, please go and attend to your own matters!"
"Alright then, Miss, please be careful. I'm going out for a run."
"Alright, Miss Qin, please feel free to do as you please!"
Over the course of their time together, Gu Mingxia's impression of Qin Yueru began to slowly change, but she still refused to acknowledge that she was Gu Huaikun's fourth wife. Qin Yueru, on the other hand, seemed particularly pleased with the title of Miss Qin. In fact, no one would willingly remain anonymous and without status by another person's side.
Gu Mingxia brought breakfast to Gu Huaikun's side, pulled over a coffee table, placed the breakfast on it, and sat down next to him.
"Dad, today's breakfast is poached eggs with steamed buns and millet porridge. How does it suit your taste?"
As she spoke, she picked up a small steamed bun and fed it to Gu Huaikun. Although he was somewhat mentally challenged, he had one good quality: he knew how to eat. Although he still needed to be fed, it was much better than not wanting to eat at all!
"Have a fried egg; it will add some nutrition and help you recover sooner."
Gu Mingxia placed another piece of fried egg in his mouth. Gu Huaikun didn't say anything. He ate whatever Gu Mingxia fed him, but there was no happiness on his face when he ate.
"Dad, do you know what? Mom is still alive, she's really still alive! I've seen her!"
As Gu Mingxia spoke, she fed him millet porridge, her expression calm and natural, without a trace of complaint or even hatred.
"However, she is no longer the Nanlan she used to be. She has developed schizophrenia and is now called Amei."
As she spoke, Gu Mingxia's mind drifted back to Amei's arrogant and willful face. If it weren't for Nanlan's indulgence, would Amei have even existed?
If Nan Lan had gone to see a doctor when she first discovered she had schizophrenia, none of this would have happened. Despite saying all this, Gu Mingxia still harbors resentment towards Nan Lan!
She could forgive Nanlan for faking her death, forgive Nanlan for concealing the truth, and even disregard Nanlan's indulgence of Amei's appearance. But she could never forgive Nanlan for letting Amei plot to kill Adong.
This is something Gu Mingxia can never forgive! To her, A Dong is everything in this world, and if anyone wants to hurt A Dong, then they are going against Gu Mingxia.
No one in this world can pretend that nothing happened after doing something wrong, not even if that person is her mother!
Gu Mingxia could never forgive such a problem. Every time she thought about how the kind and sunny Adong died at the hands of Nanlan and Amei, Gu Mingxia's heart ached so much that she couldn't speak.
“Adong is your flesh and blood. That phone recording was orchestrated by that Amei. She admitted it. She planned everything to kill Adong!”
When Gu Mingxia said those words, her heart ached, but what could she do about the pain? Could pain really bring Adong back to life?
Gu Mingxia didn't know that; all she knew was that she wanted revenge. Whether it was Nan Lan, A Mei, or A Dong, they were all the ones who killed them in the end!
“You know, that Amei is jealous of our family’s happiness, so she started to instigate Mom and Gu Huaiyan to cooperate in leaving the Gu family, and even plotted to kill Adong. Dad, do you know how much I hate Amei? I hate her so much for killing Adong, I hate her for taking Mom away! But what can I do? Call the police? Without any evidence, who would believe that a woman who should be forty-three years old has the face of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old? Dad, tell me, what should I do?”
After asking that question, Gu Mingxia put down the bowl of porridge, her face full of confusion.
She stood by the window, her beautiful brows furrowed, her pregnant belly protruding. Suddenly, a somewhat incoherent voice reached her ears.
"I...I want to...see...her, see her!"
With surprise, Gu Mingxia turned around and looked at Gu Huaikun, who was sitting in a wheelchair with clear eyes. After a brief moment of surprise, Gu Mingxia regained her composure.
"Dad, what did you say?"
"I want to see...see her, see her!"
Nan Lan is not dead! Upon hearing this news, Gu Huaikun's mind exploded, and he regained his senses with the shock.
"Dad, who do you want to see?"
"You...Mom, Nanlan!"
If Nan Lan is not dead, how can he not see her? Fifteen years have passed, fifteen years of pain and regret, but now he hears that the person is not dead and has split into another person, which makes Gu Huaikun feel unable to accept it.
"Are you sure? She's not the same person you used to know! Her name is now Amei, and she's no longer called Nanlan!"
