I have to say, power is a good thing.
After he said that, I suddenly knew that I really couldn't leave.
With just one order from him, bodyguards would form a flesh wall in front of me, making it impossible for me to move.
I pursed my lips, turned around and walked past him, walking straight into the room with a cold face.
He locked the door behind him.
Isn't it just locking me up here? Fine, then lock me up. I'm a free man now anyway.
There's no shortage of food and drink in the old house, and there are people to serve me. At most, I'll have to wait on the cooling-off period for divorce, and then I'll be free.
Our room is still kept in its original state. The servants know that Fu Qichuan doesn't like others touching his things, so when they clean, they just mop the floor and wipe the dust.
Will not move anything.
My slippers, skin care products, bedside reading materials, hair bands and other personal belongings are still in their original places.
However, the bed belonged to Fu Qichuan's other half, and there were traces of someone having slept there.
I was a little surprised that he still lived in this room and hadn't removed all traces of my life here.
“Knock knock—”
Not long after I came out of the shower, someone knocked on my door. I didn't move at all and didn't want to answer.
After a while, Cheng Shu's voice sounded outside the door, "Young Madam."
I then stood up and went to open the door, "What's wrong?"
Maybe it was because I was caught off guard by Uncle Cheng's betrayal, so my tone towards him was not very nice.
Uncle Cheng didn't mind, but said with embarrassment: "The servants found that Qi Chuan's changed clothes were all bloody. I just went to see him and found that his wound was still bleeding. I asked him to call a doctor, but he refused. Otherwise, you can help persuade him..."
"Let Fu Jinan persuade her."
I forced myself to be a little tougher. "Or let Wen Fang. He loves to hear those two girls' conversations the most."
"Qi Chuan... has you in his heart right now. The old man and I have seen it clearly for a long time."
Uncle Cheng said earnestly, "It's just you, the authorities are confused."
Hearing this, a trace of bitterness passed through my heart.
Does he have me in his heart?
This is a bit too unbelievable, like some fantasy event.
I watched Uncle Cheng's hair suddenly turn gray as he mourned Grandpa's departure. I finally relaxed and said, "Okay, I'll go and talk to him. Don't worry about it. Go to bed early."
Uncle Cheng has been with Grandpa all his life. He has no wife or children and only works hard to take care of the Fu family's affairs.
Now that Grandpa was gone, Fu Qichuan had to split the money between them and only care about the group. The rest depended on Uncle Cheng.
Fu Qichuan was in the next room. I knocked on the door, but heard a calm and steady voice, "Come in."
I suppressed my emotions, pushed the door open, and saw no one at first glance. I walked a few steps inside and saw him handling official business at the desk. His hair was half wet, the lines of his profile were smooth and delicate, and his expression was focused.
He was wearing a white bathrobe, his back slightly bent, the robe was tight and blood had seeped out.
He flipped through the documents without looking up, "Uncle Cheng, I told you not to worry about it, go to sleep."
"Uncle Cheng went to sleep."
With the mentality of helping others and relieving their worries, I said calmly, "He said you were bleeding. I'll call the doctor."
The Fu family has a fixed team of family doctors who are on call 24 hours a day.
Fu Qichuan then looked up at me, his obsidian eyes glaring at me, his emotions hard to discern. "No need, a lowly person like you doesn't need a doctor."
It's true that revenge is inevitable.
I was too lazy to argue with him, "Forget it if you don't want to."
He doesn't want to, and I have no right to force him. He never wants to listen to my nonsense.
After saying that, I turned around and prepared to go out.
"Change the dressing for me." A man's voice came from behind.
I pursed my lips and said, "I'm not a doctor. I can't change the medicine, and I don't have any medicine."
"I can, and I have medicine."
Fu Qichuan stood up and walked over to me, each step seeming to step on my heart, "I'll teach you how to change."
"Then you can change it yourself."
Having said that, I’m leaving.
"Ruan Nanzhi."
His dry palm suddenly grasped me, and his voice was like gravel, "It hurts."
The two words "simple" suddenly broke down my inner defenses.
Moreover, it was a gunshot wound after all, and we couldn't be careless.
I stared at him suspiciously, "Fu Qichuan, why didn't I realize before that you are so good at playing the victim?"
He lowered his eyes and said nonchalantly: "Do you buy this?"
“…I don’t want to eat.”
I threw those two words aside and turned around, only to be pulled forward again by him. For the first time ever, the man lowered his noble head and said in a soft voice, "It hurts so much."
At this moment, even I want to scold myself, Ruan Nanzhi, you are so cheap.
But I couldn't bring myself to hurt him.
I feel sorry for the unlucky man.
This is not wrong.
I finally gave in, "Where's the medicine?"
He said softly, "On the sofa."
When I walked over to the sofa with the bag, he had already sat down beside the bed, his eyes following my movements without blinking.
I opened the bag and found that it contained everything you need, including gauze, iodine, hemostatic drugs and the like.
It looks like everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.
I looked at him in confusion. "You've prepared everything so well. Are you waiting for Fu Jinan to come and apply the medicine to you?"
——I’m afraid she can’t come. She is with your father.
I made up for it in my heart.
Fu Qichuan frowned, "Ruan Nanzhi, are you holding your head up just to look taller?"
“…”
This wasn't the first time I'd experienced his sharp tongue, so I didn't feel like arguing. I said calmly, "Take off your clothes."
After he took off his clothes, I carefully removed the layers of gauze. The moment I saw the bloody wound, I felt a sharp pain in my heart.
I even suddenly began to wonder why he was so determined to block the bullet for me that day.
Shouldn't it be human nature to seek good and avoid harm?
I didn't get an answer, so I could only carefully treat his wound. Apart from teaching me how to change the bandage, he didn't say anything else.
However, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
I wrapped the gauze around his neck and couldn't help but ask, "Does it hurt?"
"You feel sorry for me?"
His eyes, as black as midnight, met my gaze, as if he wanted to see into my heart, and seemed to be mixed with some expectations.
My heart trembled when he looked at me. I quickly avoided his gaze and denied it flatly, "No."
"lie."
Fu Qichuan looked at me scrutinizingly, knowing everything about me: "Every time you tell a lie, you dare not look people in the eye."
…
In the end, I almost ran away.
The next day, I woke up late on purpose so as to avoid having breakfast with Fu Qichuan.
He is very busy at work and goes out early and comes back late. As long as we stagger our breakfast, I will have checked into the room when he comes back in the evening.
There will be no face-to-face meeting at all. Just wait for a while and take the divorce certificate in hand.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the room, he bumped into Fu Qichuan.
He was wearing a well-made black suit. He was tall and had long legs, and he looked cool and noble.
But the gunshot wound seemed to have healed, and his back was slightly bent.
I wondered, "Why haven't you left yet?"
He sneered, "Are you afraid of me?"
"Please understand that there is a fundamental difference between fear and disgust."
As soon as I finished speaking, I looked at his gloomy face and immediately felt refreshed.
The servant suddenly came upstairs and came over quickly, "Master, Madam, Madam, and Miss Jin'an are here."
I frowned and looked at Fu Qichuan, not daring to ask, "Do you agree?"
