After returning from the north of the city, Meng Sheng and Pei Sui went back to their busy schedules, leaving early and returning late, and rarely seeing each other for lunch or dinner except for breakfast.
If Meng Sheng came back late at night and was hungry, Pei Sui would make her a midnight snack.
On the 16th, Meng Sheng received a message from a private investigator saying that Gu Ci was critically ill and had to be rescued after six or seven hours of emergency treatment.
Ever since Gu Ci was discharged from the hospital, Meng Sheng has been having a private investigator keep an eye on Gu Ci's movements.
The Gu family's security was tight, making it difficult for private investigators to find out anything. However, after Gu Ci was sent to the hospital, things became much easier.
After the conflict with Gu Qinglian erupted, Gu Ci's health deteriorated significantly. In particular, she had a pre-existing blood clotting disorder and low platelet count. On the night she was admitted to the hospital, she vomited blood. Although she recovered, she remained in a listless state and had to go to the ward for treatment for several hours every day.
My heart is so constricted that I can't sleep at night.
The illness tormented her to the point that she was neither human nor ghost.
She had the urge to die several times, which would be a relief for her at least for now.
Meng Sheng was unmoved by the news, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Gu Ci's life is really tough!
Her situation was already one in ten million; having two deadly diseases on one person made her wonder if Gu Ci had destroyed the galaxy in her past life to end up with such two troublesome illnesses.
But despite having these two diseases, they still live well and can cause trouble one after another.
That's truly rare.
Meng Sheng wasn't hoping for something to happen to Gu Ci, but he really didn't care whether she lived or died.
In her eyes, Gu Ci's life was less valuable than a potted plant. If the plant withered and died, she would say it was a pity, but if Gu Ci really died, she would only say it was retribution.
After a long pause, she typed: "The police are investigating Gu Ci these days. You should avoid them. If it's not necessary, just leave. There's no need to keep an eye on her anymore."
Private Investigator: [Okay.]
Chengxi Hospital.
Gu Ci had woken up and was staring blankly at the ceiling. This time, the nanny who was taking care of her at the hospital had been replaced. The nanny who had taken care of her at Deqing Hospital had been fired by Liu Lingyi because she had been beaten by Meng Sheng.
She lay in the hospital bed, feeling extremely uncomfortable and in pain all over her body, and finding it difficult to do anything.
Because of the chaos at home and at work, she has no relatives around her now.
Liu Lingyi is very busy, extremely busy. I only came over last night to have dinner with her. The nanny said that Liu Lingyi and Gu Lin came by during her emergency treatment.
Gu Lin stayed for a little over an hour before receiving a phone call and leaving. Liu Lingyi waited until the emergency treatment was over, but left before the girl woke up.
Although it's already autumn, it's still hot in Beijing.
However, Gu Ci felt that the ward was cold and not as warm as the ward at Deqing Affiliated Hospital.
Even my body felt ice-cold.
A few hours earlier, when her condition flared up, she really thought she was going to die.
When she was in a state of semi-consciousness, all she could hear were the anxious voices of nurses and doctors, as well as the sounds of various medical instruments. She knew that they were trying to save her.
But at that time, her hope of survival was really too small.
She didn't want to live, but at the same time she was very unwilling to accept it.
The unbelievable thing of rebirth happened to her, so why can't she be given a perfect ending?
Even if she were to die now, it would be enough to fulfill her long-cherished wish.
She wanted to marry Asui and become Asui's wife, and even in death, her tombstone would be engraved with the four characters "Wife of Pei Sui".
She has been rescued, but she still feels that she won't live much longer.
My body now inexplicably feels like it was on the verge of death in my previous life; I feel light and airy, as if my soul has left my body.
After a long while, she turned her head with difficulty to look at the nanny and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where's my phone?"
"It's here."
The nanny handed her the phone.
She hasn't touched her phone for several days, not because she doesn't want to, but because her health condition doesn't allow it.
She has been feeling uneasy these past few days, anxious and worried on one hand, and still holding onto a sliver of hope on the other.
The nanny said that his driver was safe and sound, which meant that Chengjie had been arrested and the police did not suspect her.
“Call Meng Sheng for me, I want to see her…”
As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something, stopped, and after a long pause, changed her words, "She blocked me. Use your phone to call her. I want to see her and have some questions for her."
She had many questions about Meng Sheng.
They wanted to know if she was truly reborn, how she knew so much, and how she could so accurately avoid so many dangers.
The vast majority of dangers are things that never happened in my previous life.
That doesn't make sense either.
But if she wasn't reborn, how did she find out about Shang Boyu's affair with Ning Weiwei beforehand? It should have been three or four years before she discovered it.
She and Pei Sui shouldn't have met so early.
In her past life, she did indeed spend too much time treating her illness, and thus returned too late.
She returned to this world early, her health wasn't fully recovered, and she was hit by so many things, leaving her in this half-dead state.
How can we start over?
That must be very difficult.
The call connected with the nanny, and Meng Sheng's gentle and clear voice came through the receiver, "Hello."
Suddenly, Meng Sheng's beautiful and glamorous face appeared in Gu Ci's mind. She gave a sarcastic twitch and said with all the strength she could muster, "It's me."
Meng Sheng on the other end of the phone froze for two seconds, then her previously gentle and polite voice instantly turned cold and sharp, "Gu Ci? You dare to call me?!"
Gu Ci chuckled softly, her voice hollow yet somewhat relieved, with a strange hint of stubbornness.
It's a contradiction.
"Come to the West City Hospital. I have something I want to tell you."
Meng Sheng said coldly, "Why don't you talk to the police first?"
Gu Ci paused for a few seconds, then asked, "You guessed?"
She didn't say it explicitly because she was afraid Meng Sheng would record it.
But Meng Sheng knew what she meant. "You admit it?"
Gu Ci smiled again. "What did I admit? I just want to ask you one question. Come to the West City Hospital. Let's pretend... this is the last time we see each other."
