Chapter 190 Right and Wrong, Alice's Warning
Gu Mingxia's words left no room for leniency, but this time Bai Zixuan seemed not to have heard her at all, still looking at her with a smile, without the slightest embarrassment on his face.
"Xiaxia, no matter what you say, I won't leave. I've made up my mind, you are the woman I love most, and no matter what you say or do, I will never give up on you!"
Bai Zixuan gripped the headboard excitedly, while Gu Mingxia frowned nervously. Had Bai Zixuan gone mad?
"But I don't love you at all. I've already told you that. I only married you because you saved me. If I've done anything that has caused you to misunderstand, then I'm sorry, please forget it!"
Gu Mingxia sat on the hospital bed, looking at him with a firm gaze. Bai Zixuan's face was flushed with excitement. He was now absolutely certain of one thing: no matter what, the woman in his heart would always be Gu Mingxia!
"Xiaxia, if you don't want to remarry me, then we can remain lovers! As long as we can be together, that's fine."
A romantic relationship? Was Bai Zixuan really sure he wasn't joking again? Gu Mingxia thought this was the biggest joke she had ever heard.
What makes him think that just because he doesn't want to remarry him, he's willing to be his mistress? Is he out of his mind, or does he think he's irresistibly charming?
Gu Mingxia looked at Bai Zixuan and gave a self-deprecating laugh. It seemed that this man was beyond saving, and there was no need for her to give him any more face!
"Bai Zixuan, I'm warning you, we're already divorced. If you continue to harass me like this, I will definitely call the police if necessary!"
"Xiaxia, you wouldn't! We've been together for seven years, you wouldn't be so cruel to me, right?"
"No! We have nothing to do with each other anymore, so please don't ever appear in front of me again, okay?"
Gu Mingxia really wanted to crack open Bai Zixuan's head to see what he was thinking and why he was so stubbornly clinging to her.
Since the remarriage proposal couldn't be made, he actually had the nerve to suggest that she maintain a romantic relationship with him. There are still men in this world who are not dead, and even if there were, Gu Mingxia felt that she would rather not have a man than be with him.
"Gu Mingxia, don't go too far! I've begged you like this, and you still want to refuse me?"
"Hehe, I want to ask, who went too far first between us? It seems like it was you! First you colluded with Huo Jialingling, then Ye Xiaorou, and I won't even mention the other women. You know how promiscuous you are, I don't need to remind you, do I? Since I've already chosen to divorce you, I will never remarry you. You might as well give up on that idea!"
Bai Zixuan glared at Gu Mingxia, furious and embarrassed. He had always believed that Gu Mingxia wouldn't find a better man after leaving him. Who knew that after the divorce, first it was revealed that Xiao Yan was pursuing her, and then Fu Heng returned from abroad, remaining devoted to her. This made Bai Zixuan's situation seem utterly disadvantageous.
He's now taking the initiative to beg Gu Mingxia to get back together with her, but instead of appreciating it, she says such things. It's really too much!
"Gu Mingxia, I will never be able to have my own children because of saving you. You can't deny that, can you?"
"I'm not denying it. I originally planned to spend my whole life with you, and I even turned a blind eye to your infidelity and philandering. Who knew you would resort to such despicable tactics as a honey trap? You were the one who brought up divorce first, not me! Seven years, you saved me once, and I'm repaying you with seven years of my youth. If you hadn't done something so heartless, we wouldn't have ended up like this. Bai Zixuan, you'd better watch yourself!"
When Gu Mingxia said these words, there was no emotion on her face. In her heart, she and Bai Zixuan had long since settled their debts. She had already repaid his life-saving grace!
"Xiaxia, now I know I was wrong back then. Please forgive me, okay? We... we'll be so happy together again! Believe me, I'll treat you well this time and I'll never look at another woman again."
"I will be responsible for Xiaxia's happiness from now on! Bai Zixuan, Xiaxia is now my fiancée, please show her some respect."
Xiao Yan's voice was devoid of any emotion as he coldly stared at Bai Zixuan, a thermal lunchbox still in his hand.
Holding Gu Mingxia's hand, he looked at Bai Zixuan warily. He had tolerated it so many times, but he just didn't understand why Bai Zixuan still clung to Xiaxia like this.
It seems he was too kind, and Bai Zixuan was too leisurely, which is why he spent all his time thinking about how to pester Xia Xia!
"Fine! Gu Mingxia, you win! But I guarantee you'll regret this!"
Bai Zixuan left those words behind, turned and left the ward without looking back. He swore this was the last time he would be humiliated by Gu Mingxia. From now on, he would never come to see her again, and she could just wait and see how she regretted it!
Clenching his fists, Bai Zixuan walked out step by step with a grim expression. After getting into the car, he stared at the road ahead with fiery eyes and drove away from the First Hospital at high speed.
"Xiaxia, are you alright?!"
Xiao Yan put down the insulated lunchbox and looked at Gu Mingxia with concern. He had only come home to cook some porridge, so why did he have to see Bai Zixuan, that plague god, as soon as he got back?
However, Xiao Yan really admired Bai Zixuan. No matter how unacceptable Gu Mingxia's words were, he would always reappear in front of her within a few days. With such resilience, if he had managed the company well, Longteng would have become a large company long ago, instead of being in this awkward situation of being neither big nor small.
"It's alright. I hope Bai Zixuan won't come looking for me again after this!"
Although Gu Mingxia's words were harsh, she still felt a little soft-hearted towards Bai Zixuan. After all, if it weren't for him, she would have died in the icy lake long ago.
"Let's hope so! Come on, don't think too much about it, have some porridge!"
Xiao Yan didn't expose Gu Mingxia's soft heart. Instead, he changed the subject at the right time, poured a bowl of hot porridge from the thermos, and sat on the edge of the bed to feed her breakfast.
"Let it cool for a bit, I'll eat it myself later!"
Being taken care of like this, Gu Mingxia was really not used to it. After she woke up from her coma, Xiao Yan carefully explained the loopholes in the letter to her. In addition, she was intelligent and gradually calmed down and thought about it for half a night, and then she understood what was going on.
Just like Xiao Yan said, even if it were true, so what? Even if she died of guilt, it wouldn't change reality. It's better to live well, investigate step by step according to the existing clues, and also see if what's written on this letter is true!
"Xiaxia, there's a meeting at the company in a bit. I called Qianye, and she'll come over to take care of you later."
Xiao Yan held Gu Mingxia's hand, looking at her with guilt. While she was sad and upset, he actually had to go back to the company for a meeting. Even though Gu Mingxia didn't say anything, he felt really bad about it.
"I'm fine, I don't need anyone to take care of me. You just focus on handling the company's affairs."
She wasn't a fussy, delicate woman who needed a man by her side at the slightest discomfort. In Gu Mingxia's mind, men and women were equal in a relationship, and the contributions of both should be mutual.
"No, I'm worried about leaving you alone in the hospital! Zheng Liu and Song Jia are both men, and it's not convenient for them to watch over you in the ward. I'd feel more at ease if Qianye came, especially since she's quite skilled!"
"Suit yourself. Okay, hurry back to the company. Don't keep those higher-ups waiting for you too long. You know, there are a few people in the company who are particularly difficult to deal with."
Gu Mingxia smiled at Xiao Yan, who nodded, gave her a light kiss on the forehead as he stood up, and then quickly left the ward.
While sitting in the car, Xiao Yan took out his phone with a serious expression. Looking at the dozen or so missed calls, he dialed them without any expression.
"Your wings are really getting stronger and stronger. You're even refusing to answer my calls."
"Just say what you want to say directly, instead of using such a sarcastic tone."
Alice's tone was full of sarcasm, and Xiao Yan snorted, his voice unusually cold.
"Oh, a man who's proposed is definitely different. But Xiao Yan, don't forget you promised me you'd take care of Tina for the rest of your life. What, now that you're back in Xiangcheng, do you think you're so far away that I can't control you anymore?"
"I hope you can understand one thing: I can take care of Tina for the rest of my life, but not as husband and wife, and I have never said I wanted to marry her!"
Alice on the other end of the phone snorted heavily. She should have known that Xiao Yan was an ungrateful wolf! Sure enough, after only a few months back in Xiangcheng, he had completely ignored her!
"But Tina doesn't think that way. She's always considered herself your fiancée and is still waiting for you to come back and marry her!"
"She's not mentally sound, are you? Alice, stop using Tina as an excuse. I've told you before, I already have someone in my heart. You deliberately made Tina think I would marry her. This misunderstanding is your fault, you have to resolve it yourself!"
"You're not naive enough to think that Gu Mingxia will still love you like this after she knows what you're going to do, are you? Don't be ridiculous. What's wrong with Tina being so innocent?"
"Naive? Alice, you know Tina is sick, don't think I'm really unwilling to hurt her!"
Tina is Alice's only daughter. When she was ten years old, a high fever damaged her brain, and her mental age remained that of a ten-year-old. Her world is forever defined by a child's thoughts. Xiao Yan felt sorry for her and always indulged her. He never expected that Alice would use her daughter to control him.
"Xiao Yan, I'm warning you too. If you continue to only care about romance, I'll have no choice but to return to Xiangcheng myself! Also, if you dare to hurt Tina, I will absolutely not let you off. You should know very well what I'm capable of!"
