Chapter 169 Generous Girlfriend VS Poor Boyfriend 25
Hospital.
Gu Xingyuan was taken to the emergency room.
The air was filled with the smell of disinfectant, and doctors and nurses were busy going in and out of the corridor.
Jiang Zhiyi was holding a lot of receipts.
She suddenly became very curious about what it was like when he brought Wang Hongling to the hospital alone before.
Even adults who are capable of handling things on their own will feel worried and afraid when faced with the illness of a loved one.
Actually, she was a little panicked just now.
Gu Xingyuan was just a child at that time, and he didn't even have much money.
She always thought he was a very considerate person.
Once, she cut her right index finger and deliberately cried and made a scene, throwing a tantrum.
She thought Gu Xingyuan would be angry and impatient, but he wasn't; he kept coaxing her.
Later she asked him if he thought she was being too delicate.
Gu Xingyuan shook his head and said, "I know why you're unhappy. You cut your finger. Even though it's a small cut, it still hurts. It hurts when you use chopsticks to eat, when you type on the computer at work, when you wash up or get anything wet... It hurts. If it were me, I wouldn't be happy either."
He kissed her fingers and said gently, "Let me wash your hair for you today."
Jiang Zhiyi let out a long breath, hoping that everyone could be healthy and safe, and free from pain.
"Tuantuan, why is this happening? I remember he was very healthy in the original story and didn't have heart disease."
[Master, the plot is currently somewhat chaotic. This is likely due to measures taken by the system to correct and fix the plot.]
"Will he be in trouble?"
[Tuantuan is not sure yet.]
...
Gu Conghui arrived with his men; she had just called his secretary.
The two exchanged a few words in a cold and indifferent manner; they weren't actually very familiar with each other. Jiang Zhiyi knew that Gu Conghui didn't like her much, and she felt the same way.
Doctor: "He's alright for now, he should wake up soon. Family members, please come over..."
Gu Conghui stepped forward.
Jiang Zhiyi didn't go anywhere; she went to the ward.
She saw Gu Xingyuan lying quietly on the hospital bed.
His phone was with her and kept vibrating. Only then did she notice that Wang Hongling had called him several times.
Gu Xingyuan usually goes back home on weekends, so he guessed the call was to ask about this. He definitely couldn't let Wang Hongling know about this now; both of them are patients, and it's really dangerous.
She answered the phone: "Hello, Auntie..."
Wang Hongling said she had made some food and asked them to come and get it, her tone leaving no room for refusal.
Jiang Zhiyi had no choice but to go there herself. She said to the secretary who was standing by, "I have something to do now and I have to leave first... If he wakes up later, please send me a WeChat message."
"Okay." The secretary nodded.
...
Jiang Zhiyi stayed there until evening.
Before leaving, she received a message from her secretary saying that Gu Xingyuan had fallen asleep again after waking up, so she did not go to the hospital and went straight back to the villa after leaving Wang Hongling's house.
The next morning, she went to the hospital, but was stopped by the caregiver at the ward entrance, who said that the patient needed to rest and that visitors were not allowed.
She felt something was off.
"Tuantuan, has Gu Xingyuan woken up?"
[Master, the male lead has woken up...]
...
"So he's deliberately avoiding me now?" Jiang Zhiyi realized.
She called Gu Xingyuan directly, but it took him a long time to answer.
"Hey...you stopped me at the door?"
Gu Xingyuan paused for a moment and said, "We broke up a long time ago. I've figured it out now. I won't bother you anymore. From now on, we'll live our own lives and not disturb each other. So go, I don't need you to come and visit me."
Jiang Zhiyi wasn't stupid, of course. His sudden change of heart made her ignore his previous words and ask, "How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine," Gu Xingyuan replied.
"I need to see you," Jiang Zhiyi said.
"I..." Gu Xingyuan was still trying to refuse.
"Gu Xingyuan," Jiang Zhiyi called his name, word by word, "Don't make me angry."
Soon, someone came out and invited her in.
Neither of them spoke for a moment, and the room was very quiet. The nurses who had been there earlier had also left.
Jiang Zhiyi broke the silence first: "Why won't you let me in? How serious is your illness?"
"...I need to have surgery." Gu Xingyuan only answered that one sentence and did not say anything more.
He didn't want to tell her that his condition was not good and that he might die.
Gu Xingyuan knew that she was very empathetic and psychologically fragile, so he didn't want her to know these things, nor did he want her to pity him.
At the same time, he felt somewhat sad.
No one is unafraid of illness, and no one is unafraid of death. He still clearly remembered the experiences of accompanying Wang Hongling to see the doctor before. Although the disease was not in him, he still felt extremely painful.
So he decided last night that he would face these things alone.
"You can go now. I need to rest. Let's never see each other again."
Jiang Zhiyi: "What kind of surgery do you need?"
She completely ignored the nonsense he was spouting.
Gu Xingyuan pursed his lips. "It has nothing to do with you."
"I can't care about you." Her voice sounded somewhat displeased.
Gu Xingyuan didn't dare to look at her at that moment, and only said, "Then you should leave quickly, I don't need you to take care of me."
Jiang Zhiyi could tell from his expression and actions that he was saying one thing but meaning another, so she said, "Okay, then I'm leaving. Let's not contact each other or meet again."
"Mm," he replied.
Then came the loud slam of the door closing.
Gu Xingyuan covered himself with the blanket.
...
"Gu Xingyuan, what are you doing? Are you a grown man hiding under the covers and crying?"
He poked his head out from under the covers.
"Why are you back?" he asked softly.
Jiang Zhiyi: "I never left in the first place."
He stared at her blankly.
Jiang Zhiyi noticed that his eyes were red, indicating that he had indeed been preparing to cry in bed.
Sick people are indeed very vulnerable and helpless. She usually feels like she has no will to live when she has a cold, so she can probably understand his feelings at this moment.
Jiang Zhiyi sighed, went over and hugged him, saying, "You should focus on getting better, I'll stay with you."
Gu Xingyuan hesitated.
But soon, he hugged her back, rubbing his face against her chest, his voice still a little aggrieved: "Okay, then you're not allowed to leave."
Jiang Zhiyi frowned. Since when did he become more and more adept at acting cute?
She said disapprovingly, "Gu Xingyuan, look at yourself now! Can't you stand up for yourself?"
Gu Xingyuan seemed to misunderstand something, his facial expressions changing repeatedly, which was quite fascinating.
He said, "Oh? That's not a good idea, it's not convenient in the ward... the doctor said I can't do strenuous exercise right now..."
Jiang Zhiyi: "..."
