Gu Li thought maliciously, wondering how Gu Feng would react when her mother died. Would he still be able to maintain that cold exterior?
He thought he would kneel down and weep, his face contorted into a grimace, hating his own powerlessness, and wanting to die!
Gu Li felt a metallic taste in his throat. He licked his lips, a surge of exhilarating revenge washing over him, forcing him to clench the sheets tightly. A buzzing sound filled his ears, a mixture of pain and pleasure.
After his mother's funeral, Gu Feng immediately went into hiding. Gu Li always thought he didn't care and was busy with something insignificant.
It seems that Gu Feng is in great pain, a pain he can't bear!
Gu Li gradually calmed down, a smile still on his lips. He was genuinely happy; everything should be this way.
After figuring everything out, Gu Li let out a breath, reached for the spare phone in the VIP room, entered the phone number, and called Jiang Xu.
He probably lost his phone; he'll just buy a new one. It's a bit of a shame about the photos on the phone, including not only pictures of him and Lü Chao, but also photos of him and Jiang Xu. It must be a little heartbreaking.
But it would be good to take more photos later.
The phone rang twice before being answered, and Jiang Xu's gentle and soothing voice came through, "Gu Li."
Gu Li: "Okay, come over here."
Jiang Xu felt a sharp prick near his ear, followed by a slight numbness. His voice grew even gentler, "Okay, right away."
Gu Li hung up the phone and looked out the window. The sky was getting darker, and a light drizzle was falling, drifting sparsely on the windowpane like a painting. Gu Li felt a little itchy to draw.
When Jiang Xu arrived at the ward, he saw Gu Li staring out the window in a daze through the transparent glass. The moment he opened the door, Gu Li turned around, and the person lying on the hospital bed was filled with a sense of vulnerability.
He felt his throat was dry.
When Gu Li smiled, a vibrant energy shone through, and the young man remained as before.
Jiang Xu was immediately relieved.
Jiang Xu walked to the bedside and sat down. "What were you looking at just now?"
“Let’s look at the painting again,” Gu Li said. “Let’s paint together when we’re better.”
Jiang Xu looked at Gu Li's IV drip bottle, which was almost empty. He pressed the call button and nodded to Gu Li, "Okay, we can draw slowly now."
Young people are in good physical condition and have good recovery abilities. After two days of observation, both of them were fine and they were ready to be discharged from the hospital.
Six young men were having lunch together. Xu Lang's cheeks were bulging, but he suddenly wanted to speak, so he could only gesture frantically. The others laughed at him mercilessly.
Lu Chao patted Xu Lang on the shoulder, "Hahaha, Lang, I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush."
Xu Lang chewed for a long time before finally swallowing. He slapped Lü Chao's hand away and said, "Get out of here." After saying that, he looked at Jiang Xu and Gu Li and asked, "Are you two going to the Gu family today?"
Jiang Xu and Gu Li nodded, and Gu Li casually said, "Old people are prone to loneliness, so we'll keep him company for the night."
“Hey,” Lu Chao smiled and winked at Jiang Xu, “Gu Li’s father is not easy to deal with, Jiang Xu, you have to be careful.”
Ji Hai: "Don't try to scare people, but it's true, Jiang Xu, you should be careful."
Jiang Xu: "Okay, thanks, I'll be careful."
Gu Li picked at the food in her bowl, "Don't worry, I'm here. My father's cannons will be aimed at me. Jiang Xu will be fine."
Xie Tao nodded in agreement. "Indeed."
They ate rather hastily during the meal. Gu Li put down her chopsticks and said, "If we don't eat well these past few days, it's on us. I'll treat you to a meal this weekend. I've made sure to schedule a time."
Lü Chao said, "This will definitely be reserved for us. It would be foolish not to take advantage of it."
Gu Li: "Wow, there's an idiot here."
Lu Chao rubbed his hands, cracking his knuckles, "You think you can take advantage of my illness and that I can't deal with you, huh? You little brat..."
Gu Li raised an eyebrow at Lü Chao, "What's up?"
Ji Hai stopped him out of courtesy, saying, "Don't fight, don't fight."
The group played around like that, sometimes getting together to play games and chat in the afternoon, and sometimes getting together with the others to play.
Several hours passed in the afternoon. The weather was quite nice today. The sunlight only covered the ground slightly, providing just enough light, and the temperature was very comfortable.
Jiang Xu smiled as he watched Gu Li battling it out on his phone. After Gu Li finished a game, he said, "We should be discharged now."
Gu Li turned his head and saw Jiang Xu looking at him with an overly gentle gaze, his eyes only protecting him. He felt his heart start to beat uncontrollably. He smiled and said, "Then let's go."
When they were discharged from the hospital, someone came up to them, bowed respectfully, and said, "Young Master Gu, Young Master Jiang, Mr. Gu sent me to pick you up." He then looked at the remaining four people and gestured, "The gentleman has also prepared a car for you all and will take you safely to your destination."
Two black cars were parked behind the white car, obviously prepared for Lü Chao and the others. Gu Li glanced at them and nodded, "Then see you this weekend. Go home and rest today. You all look haggard lately, so go back and get some rest and get back in shape."
Ji Hai looked at Gu Li and Jiang Xu's faces, both of which were still sickly pale. "You two are the ones who should go back and take good care of yourselves. Stop worrying about us healthy people."
Lu Chao nodded in agreement, "That's right, we don't look that haggard."
Xu Lang smiled and waved his hand, "Go and get some rest." Xie Tao also waved his hand and nodded in agreement.
The group parted ways at the hospital entrance, with Jiang Xu and Gu Li getting into the back seat of the car together.
As the car started moving, Gu Li spread her hands towards Jiang Xu and said, "Shouldn't you give it to me now?"
Jiang Xu looked the person over carefully, "No, you're far from it."
"No, please," Gu Li leaned closer, supporting herself on the back of the chair. "It's almost done. Don't believe me? Feel it." She then tried to pull Jiang Xu's hand towards her.
Jiang Xu pressed down on Gu Li's hand to stop her, and lowered his voice, "Keep your voice down, there are people around."
Gu Li nonchalantly tugged at the person, saying, "It's okay, I can't hear you, and even if I could, I wouldn't." Since his father said he wouldn't interfere, he wouldn't plant any spies or anything, and the car he was waiting for today had probably been waiting for a while.
Jiang Xu stopped the person from acting recklessly, put his arm around him, and gently patted Gu Li's hand, "Don't make a fuss, you're not fully recovered yet."
Gu Li stood very close to the person, just to get closer. Once he achieved his goal, he stopped making a fuss and instead lowered his voice to Jiang Xu's ear, saying, "Just give it to me, Brother Xu, okay? Brother Xu."
Jiang Xu couldn't take it anymore, saying, "Let's wait until we get there. Let's wait a bit longer."
Gu Li: "It was agreed upon."
Jiang Xu, "Don't you believe me?"
“Of course I believe him,” Gu Li thought for a moment and then asked about something she hadn’t asked about in the past two days, “What’s the situation with that guy?”
Jiang Xu has been spending time with him these days, but he also handles some things secretly. Gu Li has a feeling that Jiang Xu will find out.
