Chapter 72 Fainting Again
"Gu Jinyuan! How can you be so unreasonable? You deliberately approached me and used me. Now that you've achieved your goal, you've almost bankrupted the Song family, and you still want me to be devoted to you."
Do you think you're so great? You've made me run around in circles, and you feel a great sense of accomplishment watching me cry because of you.
"We've been together for so long, you know everything you need to know. I'm no longer of any use to you, so why won't you let me go?"
Su Ruan shouted excitedly, and Gu Jinyuan rushed over to hug her, desperately trying to explain.
"Wife, I love you, I never thought of taking advantage of you. I came back to China for you. Do you remember when you were eleven years old, you saved a homeless little boy on the street?"
Your painting of redemption is a depiction of me! Look at me, look closely at me! I came here for you!
Su Ruan was stunned upon hearing this, and stood there blankly, carefully examining Gu Jinyuan.
"You...you're that little boy?"
Gu Jinyuan nodded repeatedly, "I am that little boy, and you are the salvation in my life. If it weren't for you, I would have died long ago."
Su Ruan's belief crumbled once again; it was all her fault.
It turns out that all the troubles of the Song family were caused by her.
The boy she unintentionally saved is considered her salvation in life.
Now grown up and powerful, she returns to China to overthrow the Song family and wipe out her best friend's entire family.
It's all her fault.
Su Ruan felt a metallic taste in her throat, vomited another mouthful of blood, and fainted in Gu Jinyuan's arms.
"Su Ruan, Su Ruan—"
The eldest daughter of the Li family fainted again and was hospitalized, throwing the Li family into chaos.
Outside the ward.
A bewildered Gu Jinyuan was stopped at the door.
“Gu Jinyuan, I can’t help you this time either. Look at you, a perfectly fine person, and you made her so angry that she ended up in the hospital…” Li Yuyang, who was usually good-tempered, looked extremely grim.
It was he who deliberately left Gu Jinyuan waiting at the door every day; it was he who instructed the old butler to remind the young lady every day that there was a devoted man waiting for her to turn back.
Although Song Feiwan asked him to do all this, he also wanted the two of them to reconcile as soon as possible!
This would save his fiancée from constantly sighing and getting upset with the two of them.
Who would have thought Gu Jinyuan would be so disappointing? He's really become famous this time.
He was given a chance but didn't appreciate it, and even angered his precious sister so much that she was hospitalized again.
His parents will definitely punish him this time. What a mess!
"Let me in." Gu Jinyuan said with a gloomy face, staring intently at Li Yuyang.
"No, don't come these next few days. I won't let you see my sister again."
"Let me in," Gu Jinyuan insisted.
Just as the two were shoving each other, Jiang Yufen came out of the ward and slapped Gu Jinyuan hard across the face without saying a word.
The slap was so loud that it startled the nurses at the end of the corridor.
They all craned their necks and peered over.
Gu Jinyuan's fiery temper instantly subsided, and he lowered his noble head and bowed deeply to Jiang Yufen.
"Auntie, please allow me to go in and see her. It's all a misunderstanding..."
"What misunderstanding can't be cleared up on the first meeting? Even if you can't clear it up on the first meeting, you've spent half a year together, almost two hundred days and nights, how many opportunities do you have?"
You're telling me now that it's a misunderstanding, do you even believe it yourself?
Upon hearing this, Gu Jinyuan's face drained of all color. Yes, he deserved it.
He should have made it clear to her as soon as they met that he had come for her.
After marrying her, he should have made clear about the grievances with the Song family instead of hiding them from her and deceiving her feelings.
In the end, she was forced to make a cruel choice between him and her best friend.
He's a bastard.
He was the one who kept making things difficult for her.
Gu Jinyuan raised his hand and slapped himself. "Auntie, you're right. I was a bastard..."
With another "slap," Gu Jinyuan slapped himself again. "Auntie, I was wrong, but my initial goal was to be with Su Ruan. I love her so much, and I'm so afraid of losing her..."
Gu Jinyuan slapped himself for every sentence he said, and his face quickly became red and swollen.
Jiang Yufen remained unmoved, staring coldly at Gu Jinyuan who was pleading.
"My precious daughter suffered enough in the Su family for the first twenty years of her life. I don't want her to suffer for the rest of her life, so I will absolutely not hand her over to a liar like you. Give up. Show her out!"
With a wave of her hand, more than twenty bodyguards swarmed over and pushed Gu Jinyuan outside.
Several times, I almost pushed someone to the ground.
Gu Jinyuan dared not resist in the slightest.
Yingyue, who was standing at the back, finally couldn't take it anymore. He led his men and rushed over to confront the bodyguards.
"Madam Li, please don't go too far. Miss Su Ruan is, after all, our mistress, and she has deep feelings for our master. You can't just unilaterally break them up..."
"Shut up!"
Gu Jinyuan and Jiang Yufen spoke at the same time. Yingyue stared at Jiang Yufen with red eyes and a stiff neck, but took a few steps back and lowered her head deeply under Gu Jinyuan's wolf-like eyes.
He knew he had crossed the line and would inevitably be punished when he returned.
But he just couldn't stand how the Li family treated their master like a thief; he knew all too well what kind of life his master had been living for the past month.
He barely ate or drank, spending his days in the shadows watching his wife, and when she fell into a coma, he would stand guard like an idiot.
He would grin foolishly whenever she woke up, living like a walking corpse for his wife every day, hoping she would turn around and look at him.
Isn't this kind of deep affection love?
So what is love?
As for the hurtful things Jiang Yufen said, it wasn't that the master couldn't do them, but rather that he couldn't have imagined such serious consequences.
What kind of life did the owner lead from childhood to adulthood?
He's lucky to be alive; no one has ever taught him what love is.
How can people who have no family, friendship, or love expect their owners to understand what they want from the very beginning?
He spoke up for his master, but his master didn't want him to take the lead.
As the two sides were locked in a stalemate, Li Dongming stepped out and looked at Gu Jinyuan.
"Ruan Ruan is awake. She said she doesn't want to see you. You should leave."
"What? She doesn't want to see me? Why...why..." Gu Jinyuan swayed, his vision went black, and he finally collapsed to the ground.
"Owner--"
Yingyue panicked. In his eyes, Gu Jinyuan had always been a towering, fearless, and flawless master.
But the most terrifying moment was when he collapsed.
The hospital was thrown into chaos once again.
When Gu Jinyuan woke up, only Yingyue was by his side.
Looking at Yingyue, who was unshaven and exhausted, Gu Jinyuan forced a smile.
How is she?
Yingyue turned her head away to hide the tears welling in her eyes. "Why is Master still thinking about Madam? She's been eating and drinking well these past few days. She heard you were sick, but she hasn't come to see you once. Don't be so stubborn, give up..."
"Give up?" Gu Jinyuan's cracked lips twisted into a cruel, bloodthirsty smile. "The word 'give up' has never existed in my dictionary."
