The operating room gradually darkened, and Gu Liyan, lying on the hospital bed, felt as if he had detached from his physical body—as his mind wandered, it was as if an invisible force was pulling him, compelling him to pursue it.
The end of the darkness seemed to be the end of the world. Gu Liyan moved forward unconsciously, arriving at this dark world...
"Don't go any further!"
Gu Liyan stopped in her tracks, a hint of something flickering in her eyes.
A streak of light descended from the sky and landed beside Gu Liyan, transforming into a person. She looked at Gu Liyan with no anxiety in her eyes, her brows furrowing slightly. She waved her hand in front of him, and seeing that he still did not react, she snapped her fingers.
The snap of his fingers jolted Gu Liyan awake, as if he had been woken from a dream. Upon closer inspection, he found a woman dressed in black and white standing in front of him.
"Have you regained consciousness?" she asked Gu Liyan with a faint smile.
Gu Liyan nodded, looking at her with some surprise. "Yin Yang, you, what are you doing here?"
Yin Yang glared at Gu Liyan. "Shouldn't I be asking you that? Why are you walking on the road to the Yellow Springs?"
"The Road to the Underworld?!" Gu Liyan was startled.
“After crossing the Yellow Springs Road, you will reach the River of Oblivion, and then the Bridge of Helplessness. If you cross all of them, you will die and be reincarnated, and then experience another life,” Yin Yang said.
Gu Liyan's expression changed drastically. "What? So, does that mean I'm dead? That's impossible..."
He thought to himself that he had only saved a pregnant woman, so how could he possibly die?
Yin Yang saw that Gu Liyan's spirit was still there, only her soul had left her body, and said, "It's good that you ran into me on duty. I'll pretend I didn't see you this time. You can go back now!" With that, Yin Yang raised his hand, and Gu Liyan's soul drifted away.
Gu Liyan felt as if he were in a dream, the dream so real yet so unreal that he could hardly believe it.
"Xiao Li, are you alright?" Hua Baixian asked, her voice choked with emotion, as she saw Gu Liyan open his eyes.
Gu Liyan's consciousness gradually cleared. In front of him, Hua Baixian's face was covered in tears, and her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had been crying for a long time.
"Xiao Bai..." Gu Liyan's voice was hoarse, his throat was sore, and he couldn't help but cough. At the same time, his chest hurt terribly, and he couldn't help but groan.
"Doctor! Doctor! Look at Xiao Li, what's wrong with him?" Hua Baixian shouted anxiously.
A room full of doctors gathered around and examined the patient from head to toe. They then said, "The patient is fine. He just coughed and aggravated his wound. He just needs to rest now that he's awake."
Hua Baixian finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you for your help."
Hua Baixian came to Gu Liyan again, took his hand and said worriedly, "Do you know how dangerous this was? The doctor said that your breathing and heartbeat stopped for five minutes during the surgery, and you had to sign the critical condition notice three times. Fortunately, you were saved in the end."
After saying this, Hua Baixian choked up again, tears streaming down her face.
Gu Liyan smiled and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm perfectly fine now, aren't I? As the saying goes, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and I'll be enjoying a life of happiness from now on!"
Hua Baixian wiped away her tears and said, "Yes, that's right! I'll take care of you from now on!"
Gu Liyan experienced respiratory arrest during surgery because the excruciating poison took effect at the same time as the procedure, causing the anesthesia to wear off. Under the intense pain, he lost consciousness, resulting in respiratory arrest.
What he didn't know was that entertainment news never stopped during his surgery.
First, a statement was issued condemning Gu Liyan's misconduct, including an article claiming that Gu Liyan and his friends had injured a pregnant woman and refused to provide compensation. This led to a complete blackout of Gu Liyan, causing him to lose a large number of fans. In just one hour, Gu Liyan lost a million followers.
Countless people condemned Gu Liyan for lacking compassion, even accusing him of intentionally hurting others. Some pointed out that Gu Liyan's behavior was egregious and that he had not produced any good works in recent years, resulting in a deluge of negative news.
At this moment, Mo Chen had no time to inquire about Gu Liyan's matter. Instead, he pulled Hua Yuxian aside and questioned her, "You like Mo Li? Don't you?"
Hua Yuxian sneered, "Who I like is none of your business."
"You used to like me too, didn't you?" Mo Chen couldn't help but shout. Luckily, the room was well soundproofed, so it didn't attract anyone's attention.
Hua Yuxian glared at Mo Chen and said, "Like you? Mo Chen, don't flatter yourself. I didn't have any memories of my past life back then. It was just that you took care of me, so I developed some feelings for you. It wasn't what you call liking."
Mo Chen trembled with anger. "You're lying! You like me!"
"I've always liked Gu Liyan and the current Mo Li, it has nothing to do with you!" Hua Yuxian said coldly.
Mo Chen pointed at Hua Yuxian, speechless, and decided not to continue the conversation, so he got up and left.
Hua Yuxian glared at Mo Chen with disdain. Although Mo Chen was quite outstanding, his magnanimity was getting smaller and smaller! Besides, it was Mo Chen who broke his promise first back then, so Hua Yuxian was not going to waste her feelings on him!
Seeing Mo Chen come out, Lin Momo and Yan Xiyue stepped forward and happily said, "We just received news that Mo Li is alright."
"That really scared me to death! I was afraid he wouldn't make it!" Lin Momo said, still shaken. "Thank goodness he pulled through."
Mo Chen nodded slightly, but didn't show much joy. Instead, he said, "It's good that everyone is alright. I have things to take care of at the company, so I'll go back and deal with them first." After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Yan Xiyue sensed that something was off with Mo Chen and immediately asked, "That's strange, he doesn't seem to be in a good mood?"
Lin Momo replied irritably, "You care about him that much?"
"No, why are you jealous?" Yan Xiyue pouted.
Lin Momo said angrily, "Your eyes are practically glued to him, do you think I'm not jealous!"
