Gu Yiming returned to his room and was about to fall asleep when he heard the female lead saying something. Because she had her back to him, he couldn't hear her clearly.
"Don't leave me, don't leave me, come back!" Jiang Hua said anxiously. Gu Yiming was puzzled as to why she would say such a thing.
Seeing this, Gu Yiming knew that Jiang Hua might be having a nightmare. "Jiang Hua, are you having a nightmare? Don't be afraid, I'm behind you." Gu Yiming thought that this would wake Jiang Hua up. He felt very sorry for her when he saw her uneasy appearance.
But Jiang Hua completely ignored him, continuing to nervously mutter to herself. Gu Yiming sensed something was wrong and quickly got up again. While shaking Jiang Hua, Gu Yiming softly called out to her, "Jiang Hua, wake up. What are you saying? What do you mean, 'Don't leave me'?"
If Gu Yiming hadn't increased the force in his hands and shaken Jiang Hua awake, Jiang Hua would still have been frowning, looking uneasy.
When Gu Yiming saw Jiang Hua wake up, he felt much more relaxed. He was about to ask again, "Jiang Hua, what's wrong..." but Jiang Hua pushed him away unexpectedly.
"Get off me! Who told you to wake me up? Annoying!" Jiang Hua was very angry at Gu Yiming. She pushed him away and got up quickly. Although she was a little dizzy, she quickly recovered.
Gu Yiming watched Jiang Hua's departing figure, utterly puzzled. Then, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Jiang Hua returned and lay down to sleep again, without saying a word to Gu Yiming.
"No, you have to get up and explain this to me clearly. You're pregnant now, and you're still doing this. How long have you been having this nightmare? Why haven't you told me anything?" Gu Yiming was really worried about Jiang Hua this time. He felt that he had been away from home for too long and knew nothing about Jiang Hua's situation.
Jiang Hua was really annoyed by Gu Yiming, and his temper wasn't exactly good during her pregnancy to begin with. She snapped again, "What's wrong with you? I'm just trying to get some sleep, and you're going to keep bothering me? You're never this annoying when you're not home. Why can't you give me a moment of peace and quiet when you're home?!"
Gu Yiming also disturbed her sleepiness. Jiang Hua was already feeling very sleepy, and because she was pregnant, she didn't want to be disturbed by anyone.
Gu Yiming glanced at her helplessly. He knew Jiang Hua was going through a special time. "I know you're in a bad mood, and I understand you, but this isn't a good way to go. What if something happens later?"
Seeing Gu Yiming's worried expression, Jiang Hua felt that Shao Hong would normally be deeply moved, but now she found it extremely ironic. His mind was full of what had actually happened; he said he had let go, but in reality, he hadn't forgotten.
"What exactly do you want? I told you I'm fine, why are you bothering me like this? Aren't you annoyed? I'm annoyed even if you aren't." Jiang Hua didn't want to talk to Gu Yiming anymore. She felt that since he had time to worry about her, why didn't he stay with her earlier?
Frowning, Gu Yiming looked at Jiang Hua without saying a word. Instead, he slowly squatted down next to Jiang Hua, looked up at her, and pulled her up. Although Jiang Hua resisted a little, Gu Yiming held her tightly and didn't let her break free.
"Sweetie, stop being so temperamental. Tell me how long this has been going on? If you can't take me to the hospital right away, okay? Don't make me worry, and the baby in your belly won't allow you to be like this either." Gu Yiming felt that he was really overwhelmed during this period. Company matters, Jiang Hua's matters, and Jiang Hua's nightmares all came as expected.
Jiang Hua knew that Gu Yiming was concerned about her, but she really didn't know why she felt irritable when she looked at Gu Yiming now, unlike when she was playing with Xia Junxi.
"I told you I'm fine, why do you always have to act like this? I'm not a prisoner, I can't be at home all day long. If you really care about me, then you should focus on your work and finish it before you come and spend time with me." Jiang Hua really didn't want to argue with Gu Yiming anymore; she found him increasingly annoying.
Jiang Hua simply ignored Gu Yiming, forcibly pulled her hand away from his, and lay back on the bed. Gu Yiming was feeling a bit cold, and seeing that Gu Yiming still hadn't left, Jiang Hua finally lost her temper.
"Fine, just leave. I'm getting annoyed just looking at you. If you really don't want anything to happen to me and the baby, then please leave. You can sleep in the study for the night, I won't care. Let's both have some peace and quiet. You know I'm in a bad mood during my pregnancy." With that, Jiang Hua turned her back to Gu Yiming and pointed to the door with one finger, signaling him to leave. Gu Yiming didn't say anything and ultimately gave in.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment. Neither of them spoke. Jiang Hua's mind was in turmoil, and so was Gu Yiming's. It seemed that both of them needed some quiet time to calm down.
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, but I'll go to the hospital with you. Of course, I'll go with you whenever you want to, no matter how busy I am. Just tell me and I'll take you." This time, Gu Yiming directly expressed his thoughts. He didn't make any other requests of Jiang Hua, and Jiang Hua didn't reply to him immediately.
Jiang Hua had calmed down by this time, and it seemed that he understood that Gu Yiming had a lot of unspeakable bitterness in his heart. Finally, just as Gu Yiming closed the door, Jiang Hua said something to comfort him.
"I'll consider going to the hospital as you suggested, but don't worry about me. I'll contact you whenever I feel like going." Jiang Hua's tone was more helpless and aggrieved, as if he didn't want things to be this way, but somehow it turned out this way.
Jiang Hua seemed to be on the verge of depression, often muttering to herself, "I didn't want to be this tired. If I had known, I wouldn't have had this second child. Maybe things wouldn't be like this between us. I wouldn't be tormented like this every day, and you wouldn't be so exhausted, worrying about me all the time."
After Gu Yiming was kicked out, Jiang Hua didn't sleep a wink all night. She thought about many things. She didn't understand why she was so angry just now, nor did she understand why she felt wronged when Gu Yiming showed her concern, but she refused to let Gu Yiming truly stay with her.
Only after hearing that Gu Yiming had left again did Jiang Hua slowly sit up from the bed and leave the bedroom when she arrived at the company.
