Episode 63 is critically ill; the scheming Gu family members...
Lin Fu's words were filled with anxiety, and Gu Mingxia's brows furrowed tightly.
After hanging up the phone, he stared blankly at the computer in front of him, his fingers randomly pressing keys on the keyboard, looking completely distracted.
Gu Huaikun's condition has worsened!
She had expected to be happy to hear the news, but why did she feel so confused? Why was there still a tiny bit of fear in her heart?
Was she afraid that Gu Huaikun would die because his condition was worsening? No, that's not it! Gu Mingxia kept telling herself that she was definitely not afraid that Gu Huaikun would die, but that she hadn't hated him enough yet, and she hadn't found out the truth about her mother and Adong's deaths. How could he die at this time?
Gu Mingxia's expression was unpredictable, her fingers were moving, but her eyes remained completely expressionless.
After Xiao Yan finished signing the documents, he looked up and saw Gu Mingxia looking distraught. He frowned, not expecting that Aunt Liu's death would have such a huge impact on her.
"Xiaxia, don't blame yourself too much. Aunt Liu's death has nothing to do with you!"
If anyone dares to say that Aunt Liu died because of Gu Mingxia, Xiao Yan will absolutely not let that person off the hook!
"Huh? What Aunt Liu?"
Clearly, Gu Mingxia hadn't listened to what Xiao Yan was saying. She mumbled something incoherently, then suddenly grabbed her bag from the hanger, stood up, and ran outside.
"I need to go to the hospital!"
Xiao Yan frowned, but his feet seemed to have a mind of their own, making the best choice for him. He grabbed the car keys from the table and quickly followed.
As he was leaving, he bumped into Chiba, who was carrying documents, and Xiao Yan said expressionlessly.
"Tell Liang Yuhao to keep an eye on the company. I have to go out for a while."
"Mr. Xiao, Miss Zixi..."
Before she could finish speaking, Xiao Yan had already vanished. Qianye sighed helplessly, glanced down at the documents in her arms, and suddenly felt sorry for her boss—truly being paid like a cabbage seller but having the mind of a gold seller!
As Xiao Yan drove out of the car, he saw Gu Mingxia standing anxiously by the roadside waiting for a taxi, so he rolled down the window.
"Xiaxia, get in the car, I'll take you there!"
After glancing at the time on her wrist and the constantly appearing phone numbers on her phone, Gu Mingxia got into Xiao Yan's car without hesitation.
Bo'ai Hospital!
These four words alone made Xiao Yan realize that there must be a problem on Gu Huaikun's side.
In fact, Xiao Yan had been wanting to ask Gu Mingxia and Gu Huaikun about their situation for the past few days. After all, he was still her father. But when he thought about the conflict between the father and daughter, Xiao Yan felt that he shouldn't interfere in other people's family affairs.
Gu Mingxia gripped her phone tightly the entire way, not saying a word. Seeing her expression, Xiao Yan didn't ask anything, but simply drove very fast.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Gu Mingxia got out of the car and went straight to the ICU. As soon as she got there, she saw that the door to Gu Huaikun's old ward was open, but the bed inside was empty, and even Lin Fu was not there.
Without warning, her heart suddenly clenched. Could it be that Gu Huaikun... No, it can't be! They say bad people live a thousand years, so how could a bad person who doesn't care about the cause of his wife and son's death suddenly die?
Gu Mingxia felt weak all over. She leaned against the wall beside her, her hand holding the phone trembling slightly. She was afraid to dial that familiar yet unfamiliar number.
"Miss, are you alright?"
A nurse carrying a tray passed by and saw that Gu Mingxia's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat and her face was very pale. She kindly asked her what was wrong.
"Where are the patients in this ward?"
Forcing herself to stay alert, Gu Mingxia asked a question with some trepidation. After asking, she stared intently at the nurse's mouth, afraid that she might hear an answer she didn't want to hear.
"Mr. Gu's condition worsened this morning, and he is currently in the emergency room receiving treatment!"
As soon as the nurse finished speaking, Gu Mingxia ran downstairs to the emergency room. Watching Gu Mingxia's figure quickly descend the stairs, the nurse hadn't even had time to retract her hand that was pointing at the elevator door.
"This elevator goes directly to the emergency room entrance..."
Gu Mingxia ran down the stairs, thinking all the while that Gu Huaikun couldn't die. If she died, who would she hate?
When they arrived at the emergency room, Lin Fu, Gu Huaixin, and Qin Yueru were all waiting anxiously outside. When Qin Yueru saw Gu Mingxia appear, she instinctively backed away.
"Uncle Lin, how is my dad?"
The way she blurted out surprised not only Lin Fu but also Gu Mingxia herself. However, she only showed a hint of discomfort in her eyes and did not show any other expression.
"The old man woke up this morning, repeatedly saying 'It's not like that, it's not like that,' and then suddenly fell into a coma. The doctor said that the old man suffered a brain hemorrhage due to agitation, and he is still being resuscitated. We don't know..."
"Master, did you hear that? The young lady was calling for your father. If you can sense it, please wake up quickly!" Lin Fu silently felt happy for Gu Huaikun.
After all, they are blood relatives. Lin Fu knows that no matter how tough Gu Mingxia sounds, her heart is still very soft when she is with Gu Huaikun!
"Hmph, if it weren't for you, would Master be in this state? Now you're crying crocodile tears, how shameless!"
Qin Yueru felt angry just thinking about the two slaps Gu Mingxia had given her that day. Now, seeing Gu Huaikun lying in the emergency room, his life hanging in the balance, she worried that if he died, she, an unknown and powerless person, would get nothing. Therefore, her hatred for Gu Mingxia was truly extraordinary!
"If you can't speak, then don't speak. No one will think you're mute!"
Gu Mingxia gave Qin Yueru a cold look, and Qin Yueru immediately lowered her head and hid behind Gu Huaixin. Gu Huaixin looked at Gu Mingxia and smiled awkwardly.
"Xiaxia, don't worry too much, your brother will be fine!"
"I hope that's what my second uncle thinks too!"
Who in the entire Gu family doesn't know that Gu Huaixin has coveted the position of head of the Gu family for many years? If it weren't for Gu Huaikun's iron-fisted methods, who knows how much of the Gu family's wealth would have been squandered by him!
Gu Huaixin listened to her words and nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face, but in his heart he hated the father and daughter. Neither of them was easy to deal with, and they were as slippery as eels. He was also a descendant of the Gu family, so why couldn't he get a share of the Gu family's property? He was not greedy and did not want more. Wasn't it enough that he only wanted the share that belonged to his second branch?
Even so, Gu Huaikun was determined not to give him any. He only gave him 100,000 yuan a month for living expenses. 100,000 yuan! What can 100,000 yuan do? It's not even enough to take a friend out to a high-end hotel for dinner. Gu Huaixin felt angry whenever he thought about how he, as a descendant of the Gu family, was living like a grandson.
It would be best if Gu Huaikun were dead! The eldest son's family only has one daughter and one son. Now that the daughter has married and left home, although she is divorced, she is no longer a member of the Gu family. That short-lived Gu Mingdong has long since passed away. As long as Gu Huaikun dies, he, as the eldest son of the second son's family, can naturally become the head of the Gu family!
Thinking of this, Gu Huaixin felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey. He even had a brain hemorrhage. Let's see if that old fox doesn't die this time.
Seeing the smile in Gu Huaixin's eyes, Gu Mingxia bit her lip, knowing that he must be cursing her own brother to die in his heart, and she had a thought of throwing him out of the hospital!
"Xiaxia, is your uncle alright?"
Xiao Yan, who had been searching for a while after parking the car, patted Gu Mingxia on the shoulder as soon as he saw her. When Gu Mingxia looked up and saw him, she suddenly felt that she was no longer alone, and nodded with a pale smile.
"He's still in the emergency room. He's so lucky. All those monsters and thugs couldn't do anything to him when he was young. This is just a brain hemorrhage. He'll definitely be fine!"
Xiao Yan grasped Gu Mingxia's hand and nodded to her. "Yes, Uncle will definitely be alright!"
"A worn-out shoe, only you, Xiao Yan, treat her like a treasure and hold her in your arms!" Gu Huaixin glared at the two of them fiercely, while Qin Yueru pouted. Why should Gu Mingxia get all the good things in the world? Born into a wealthy family, with a father who is among the top ten on the wealth list, even if she married a scumbag and became a divorced woman, she still has a top-notch man like Xiao Yan who stays by her side and never abandons her?
Why should she, at such a young age, have to stay by an old man's side? When Qin Yueru thought this, her eyes filled with hatred as she looked at Gu Mingxia. That's how women are; they always mock those who are worse off than themselves while envying, being jealous of, and hating those who are better off!
Who are the patient's family members?
The doctor came out covered in sweat, and Gu Mingxia immediately went to greet him.
"I'm the patient's daughter. How is he...?"
"The patient's condition is optimistic. Fortunately, the rescue was timely. If we had arrived even a minute later and the bleeding had not been stopped in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
"Thank you, doctor! Thank you, doctor!"
After the doctor finished speaking, he nodded to them and turned to go into the emergency room. Gu Mingxia looked at the emergency room door that had closed again, and her worried face relaxed a lot. She turned to look at Xiao Yan and rushed into his arms to hug him.
"Xiao Yan, he's alright, he's alright!"
"Yes, it's alright now. Don't worry!"
Xiao Yan patted Gu Mingxia on the back and gently comforted her.
Gu Huaikun was quickly wheeled out of the emergency room. Looking at Gu Huaikun with his gray hair and oxygen tube, Gu Mingxia suddenly felt her eyes sting. She was really afraid that she would never see this man again. She couldn't imagine who she would hate if she could never see him again!
Back in the ward, Gu Mingxia changed into a sterile gown, went in, and tightly grasped Gu Huaikun's hand.
"You need to get better soon. I've already lost my mother and brother. If you're gone too, I'll be all alone, and I won't even have anyone to hate. Dad, please wake up!"
