Chapter 62 Will you... forgive me...?
At dinner time, Su Tangtang and Huo Yizhou met at a restaurant he had chosen. The environment was elegant and quiet, perfect for conversation.
Su Tangtang picked up her water glass, took a sip, and said softly, "I didn't sleep well last night."
Huo Yizhou looked at her gently, his dark circles under his eyes indicating that she was still upset about yesterday's events. "Get some rest early tonight," he said with concern.
She nodded.
After a moment of silence, Huo Yizhou brought up the important matter, "Gu Qingke and the other two have been released."
Su Tangtang immediately snapped out of her daze. "Why?"
“Someone is helping them behind the scenes,” Huo Yizhou paused, his voice deepening, “I suspect it’s my ‘good cousin,’ because Gu Qingke is signed with his film and television company.”
Su Tangtang was slightly taken aback.
Huo Yizhou's cousin? This character is barely mentioned in the original book. Well, Huo Yizhou is a supporting character in the story, and his family situation is not described.
"Don't worry," Huo Yizhou said firmly, "I won't let the person who hurt you get away with it."
Su Tangtang looked into his eyes and said seriously, "I can help me get justice, but you have to promise me that you will always put your own safety first. I don't want you to get hurt because of me."
His heart warmed, and he solemnly replied, "Okay."
After the meal, Huo Yizhou took her back to her residence and then left.
Three days later, Su Tangtang participated as a guest on the popular variety show "Enjoy Life," which has been airing for several years. This show, featuring "two days and one night" real-life experiences, is filmed annually and is beloved by audiences.
The night before her departure, she met with Huo Yizhou and they had dinner together. However, Huo Yizhou had a lot of work to do over the past six months, and he rushed off to handle matters after dinner, so the two didn't have much time to talk.
Accompanied by her agent, Su Tangtang arrived at the recording location smoothly after a two-hour drive. It was a mountainous city, and she was warmly welcomed by the regular guests as soon as she got out of the car.
"Hello Tangtang, I'm He Cheng," a handsome male guest said first.
Su Tangtang smiled and nodded in response, "Hello, Brother Cheng."
Next, a young female guest introduced herself, "Wang Kexin."
Next up was a gentle-looking middle-aged male guest, "Guo Jianguo".
Su Tangtang greeted them politely, "Sister Xin, Brother Guo."
She did her homework in advance and was familiar with the program format and the regular cast members. "Enjoy Life" features three regular guests each living in adjacent houses, and three guest stars are invited each episode. The game determines which house each guest star will visit.
The guest stars would live with the regular cast members, and the production team would not provide food. All ingredients and expenses would have to be covered by the guests themselves. Su Tangtang found this setting both realistic and interesting, so she accepted the offer.
Not long after, the other two guest stars arrived one after another. One of the female guests surprised Su Tangtang. The two stared at each other for a moment.
He Cheng keenly noticed this scene and asked with a smile, "Tangtang, doesn't this guest look familiar?"
Su Tangtang nodded and smiled, "We've recorded a show together."
After the resident guests gave brief self-introductions, it was the guest guests' turn to speak.
"Hello, I'm Wu Xiaojia," the female guest greeted with a sweet smile.
Another male guest then said, "Hello everyone, I am Xu Jiawen."
Su Tangtang replied gracefully, "I am Su Tangtang."
Xu Jiawen nodded to her in greeting.
After getting to know each other, the group started to form groups through games. The first game was "Blindfolded B ...
He Cheng was the first to take the stage.
He skillfully put on the blindfold and stretched out his hands to explore the air, while the three guest stars nimbly dodged and weaved. The experienced He Cheng soon "captured" one of them. When he took off the blindfold, he saw that it was Su Tangtang.
Su Tangtang smiled and said, "Brother Cheng, I'm so happy we're in the same group!"
He Cheng responded enthusiastically, "Me too!"
Wang Kexin then touched Xu Jiawen, and Guo Jianguo naturally teamed up with Wu Xiaojia, creating a balanced group of men and women.
After the groups were formed, everyone went "home".
Su Tangtang followed He Cheng into his small courtyard, which had three rooms, a kitchen, and two bedrooms, and was spacious and clean.
As they walked and talked, He Cheng said, “When I read ‘Men Till the Fields and Women Weave’ before, I felt that your accommodation conditions were much more difficult than ours.”
Su Tangtang looked around and agreed, "Indeed, your kitchen here doesn't need to burn firewood, running water is convenient, and there's even a separate bathroom. It's really great."
Think about what they had before; they had nothing, and the conditions were truly harsh.
The production team did not serve them lunch; instead, they ate food stored in Hecheng.
In the afternoon, everyone gathered to prepare for the day's task: to go up the mountain to pick wild fruits.
While distributing baskets, He Cheng explained, "There are a lot of wild kiwis on this mountain. We usually pick some to eat ourselves, and the rest we can sell."
Everyone carried bamboo baskets and walked up the mountain path. Su Tangtang recalled her previous experience and said, "I once tasted a wild kiwi in a supermarket, and it was extremely sour."
He Cheng explained with a smile, "Some of them are indeed very sour, but the ripe ones are also very sweet."
Guo Jianguo added, "There are still a lot of winter jujubes on the mountain, they are very sweet, but everyone should still be careful, the mountain roads are not very safe."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
It was winter, and the mountain was covered with withered yellow leaves and branches, which crunched underfoot.
Just then, Wu Xiaojia walked quickly to Su Tangtang's side, greeting her with a natural smile, "Long time no see, Tangtang."
Her kind tone and smile made it seem as if there had never been any distance between them.
Su Tangtang smiled back, "It really has been a long time."
However, Wu Xiaojia's disgust for Su Tangtang remained unchanged. She always believed that if it weren't for Su Tangtang, she and Zhao Zhiyi would not have left the variety show, and she should be the one who became popular now. She had been having a very difficult time, and this variety show opportunity was something her manager had worked hard to secure.
What she found even harder to accept was that she was forced to separate from Zhao Zhiyi. The Zhao family believed that she was a jinx, had corrupted their son, and had caused negative impacts and economic losses to the hot pot restaurant. When she asked Zhao Zhiyi what he thought, he only said that he would follow his family's arrangements.
This answer almost made her speechless with anger.
She wasn't spineless; she immediately turned and left. But in her heart, the culprit who caused all of this was Su Tangtang.
Her hatred for this person grew stronger every day, and she was even more annoyed when they met again on a variety show.
But she couldn't beat her; after all, the other woman had a good family background. It's true what they say, comparisons are odious.
At this moment, He Cheng, who was walking ahead, turned around and called out, "Tangtang, come here quickly, there's a jujube tree here!"
Upon hearing this, Su Tangtang smiled slightly at Wu Xiaojia and then jogged over.
Wu Xiaojia stared at her back, unconsciously clenching her hands in her sleeves.
That indescribable feeling of sadness welled up inside me once again.
Su Tangtang ran to He Cheng's side and sure enough, she saw a jujube tree with branches laden with heavy fruit, which looked particularly tempting.
Others gradually gathered around.
Su Tangtang looked up and said, "It's too high to reach, we need to find a stick to knock it down."
He Cheng nodded in agreement.
Guo Jianguo looked around and saw a tree branch not far away. He ran over and picked it up. "This one is quite long, but it's a bit thin."
He Cheng said, "Let's give it a try first."
Guo Jianguo responded and raised the stick to strike the branch.
Although the stick was thin, it managed to knock down some dates, but after only a few hits, the stick broke with a "crack".
Guo Jianguo said with some regret, "This stick is too brittle."
He Cheng chimed in, "Let's go look around the neighborhood again."
As they talked, they walked to the side together.
The remaining four people stayed where they were.
Su Tangtang bent down to pick up a freshly fallen jujube, wiped it casually on the hem of her clothes, and took a bite.
Xu Jiawen looked at her and couldn't help but smile, "Is it delicious?"
Su Tangtang nodded. "It's quite sweet."
Xu Jiawen also bent down and picked one up.
Wang Kexin also picked one up.
They all followed Su Tangtang's example, wiping the dates on their clothes and putting them in their mouths, nodding in agreement, "They really are delicious."
Wu Xiaojia didn't think much of it, but she still joined the others in picking up dates.
If she didn't pick them up, she would seem out of place, and she didn't want to be the one who didn't fit in, so she had no choice but to go with the flow.
Soon, Guo Jianguo and He Cheng returned with three sticks. The three men each took one and started tapping the jujube tree branches and leaves. Before long, the ground was covered with jujubes.
Several girls squatted down and started picking them up.
Before long, everyone's basket was full of jujubes.
Wang Kexin straightened up and said, "That's enough. We still need to look for wild kiwis. Let's pick these dates tomorrow."
Guo Jianguo replied, "Okay."
After picking up the last few dates from the ground, the group picked up their baskets and continued on their way.
After searching for about fifteen minutes, they finally found a kiwi tree, but unfortunately there weren't many fruits. Wang Kexin and He Cheng stayed behind to pick them, while the other four continued to explore.
"There's one on the left!" Su Tangtang suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed.
Su Tangtang had already run over, exclaiming in surprise, "Oh my god, there are so many kiwis here!"
Xu Jiawen also exclaimed, "I never expected there to be so many wild fruits on the mountain in winter."
Guo Jianguo explained, "The production team has booked this entire mountain, so no one is picking the fruit. In previous years, it would have been picked clean long ago."
Su Tangtang suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
The group began picking the kiwifruit. Guo Jianguo noticed a steep slope behind the kiwifruit tree and warned, "It's damp on the mountain, everyone be careful not to slip."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Wu Xiaojia stared blankly at the steep slope, her mind filled with thoughts of how to push Su Tangtang down it, preferably to her death, or at least to seriously injure her if she didn't die.
Seeing that Wu Xiaojia was still standing there in a daze, Xu Jia asked, "Wu Xiaojia, what's wrong?"
Wu Xiaojia didn't hear it at all.
Guo Jianguo walked over to her and gently touched her arm. "What's wrong?"
Wu Xiaojia shuddered suddenly, a hint of panic flashing across her face, and hurriedly said, "Ah, it's nothing, it's nothing."
Xu Jiawen said, "I've been calling you for ages."
Wu Xiaojia chuckled twice and lowered her head to start picking kiwis.
But her gaze kept drifting towards Su Tangtang, her mind racing as she plotted how to push her down the slope without anyone noticing, out of the camera's view.
Whether it was because Su Tangtang was particularly cautious or it was just a coincidence, she never went near the edge of the slope, even though the kiwis were growing the densest there.
Soon, Su Tangtang's basket was full.
Wu Xiaojia called out, "Tangtang, come over here, there are lots of fruits here!"
Su Tangtang glanced in that direction, narrowed her eyes slightly, and politely declined, "I won't go, the basket is already full."
Seeing that she refused to come over, Wu Xiaojia's face darkened slightly, but she did not insist any further, fearing that her thoughts would be seen through by others.
They wanted to do bad things, but were also worried that their actions would arouse suspicion.
She absentmindedly moved a few steps toward the slope, mechanically picking fruit.
Suddenly, my foot slipped.
With a scream, her figure plummeted downwards.
The three turned around at the sound and saw Wu Xiaojia tumbling down the slope.
They rushed over, but Wu Xiaojia continued to slide down.
The slope is covered with low shrubs and trees.
Fortunately, a tree blocked her fall.
The three of them carefully went down the slope and surrounded her.
Su Tangtang knelt down to help her sit up and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
"Don't touch me!" Wu Xiaojia blurted out.
Su Tangtang paused, then silently withdrew her hand.
Guo Jianguo and Xu Jiawen both looked at Wu Xiaojia.
She immediately realized her mistake and hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Tangtang, I was so scared, I spoke a little harshly."
Su Tangtang gently shook her head, "It's okay."
"Can you stand up?" Su Tangtang asked.
Wu Xiaojia gritted her teeth and nodded, "I can do it."
Even if it doesn't work out, it has to work out. This opportunity to participate in a variety show is hard-won, and we absolutely cannot give up halfway through.
Xu Jiawen noticed the bloodstains on her forehead. "Should we go to the hospital to get it checked out?"
Wu Xiaojia tried to remain calm, "No need, I'm fine. Luckily, I'm wearing thick clothes for winter."
Xu Jiawen scrutinized her. "It's good that you're alright."
The crowd helped her climb to the top of the slope.
As soon as they returned to flat ground, they encountered Wang Kexin and her companion who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion.
Seeing them helping Wu Xiaojia, Wang Kexin hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
Guo Jianguo explained, "I accidentally slipped and fell."
Wang Kexin quickly asked, "How badly are you injured?"
Wu Xiaojia forced a smile, "It's nothing, just some minor scratches."
Actually, my back hurt terribly.
I was just stopped by the tree, but I was also hit quite hard by it.
Wang Kexin clutched her chest. "It's dangerous in the mountains. We must be careful."
Seeing that she was alright, everyone continued picking kiwis.
They didn't go back until everyone's baskets were full.
In the evening, everyone brought their prepared dishes together and sat around the table.
Wang Kexin spoke first, "I want to try what Tangtang makes. I've been craving it ever since I saw them eating it on a variety show."
Guo Jianguo nodded in agreement, "Me too."
Su Tangtang pointed to the plate of stir-fried shredded potatoes, "I made this one."
Everyone reached out with their chopsticks to grab some.
Seeing everyone fawning over Su Tangtang, Wu Xiaojia felt a surge of irritation. Coupled with her severe back pain, she almost had the urge to flip the table.
After tasting it, Guo Jianguo nodded, "Delicious."
Xu Jiawen echoed, "It's really good."
Everyone appreciated her cooking, and Su Tangtang was very happy. She smiled and said, "Thank you."
She tasted the dishes made by the others, and her eyes lit up. "Wow, your cooking is so delicious too! You're too modest!"
Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere became relaxed and lively.
Wu Xiaojia was the only one sitting there, looking sullen.
-
The next day, they went up the mountain again to pick kiwis and winter dates, and then took them to town to sell in the afternoon.
Instead of setting up a stall together, the group split into three stalls. Sales were not smooth at first, but around four or five o'clock, as more people came to town, sales became easier.
But by 7 p.m., not all the fruit had been sold, so everyone had to pack the rest into boxes and take them back. After dinner, Su Tangtang and her group prepared to leave.
"Although we didn't spend much time together, I'm really going to miss you all," Wang Kexin said.
Su Tangtang replied with a smile, "Let's exchange contact information and get together again when we have time."
They added each other as friends.
He Cheng packed up the unsold kiwis and jujubes and handed them to Su Tangtang, saying, "Take these back with you and let your family try them."
Su Tangtang didn't refuse and took it, saying, "Okay, thank you!"
After chatting for a while, the car arrived. Su Tangtang and the others put their luggage away, got in the car, and drove off slowly.
In the car, Su Tangtang adjusted to a comfortable position.
Ji Tingmeng asked her, "How have you been feeling these past two days?"
“It’s pretty good,” Su Tangtang replied.
Ji Tingmeng gave a soft "hmm".
The return trip would take more than two hours. At first, Su Tangtang chatted with Ji Tingmeng, but then she fell asleep without realizing it.
When she woke up again, the car was already parked in front of her house. Su Tangtang was a little surprised, "You arrived so quickly?"
Ji Tingmeng laughed and said, "Of course it felt fast when I was asleep, but I felt the journey was quite long."
Su Tangtang smiled and said, "That's true."
She then invited, "Sister Ji, it's so late, why don't you stay at my place tonight?"
"No need, thank you," Ji Tingmeng politely declined.
“Okay,” Su Tangtang said, no longer insisting.
Ji Tingmeng told her, "Rest for a day, and I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow to attend an event."
“Okay,” Su Tangtang nodded.
Watching Ji Tingmeng's car drive away, Su Tangtang turned and went inside. She thought her family was already asleep, but to her surprise, everyone was still sitting in the living room.
"Mom and Dad, brother, why aren't you asleep yet? It's so late."
Su Tanghao said, "I'm waiting for you to come back."
One sentence warmed Su Tangtang's heart.
After chatting with my family for a while, we all went back to our rooms to rest.
Su Tangtang lay in bed and called Huo Yizhou. The two chatted for a while before saying goodnight and going to sleep.
The next day was Sunday, and Huo Yizhou had a rare day off. Su Tangtang went out after breakfast.
As soon as I reached the main gate, I saw Huo Yizhou waiting there.
She jogged over and asked, "How long have we been here?"
"Just arrived," Huo Yizhou said, taking her hand and getting her into the car.
As soon as he got in the car, he naturally took her hand. Su Tangtang looked down at their clasped hands and a smile quietly crept onto her lips.
Huo Yizhou's residence is not far from Su Tangtang's home, only a half-hour drive away.
It was a detached villa with excellent landscaping. As soon as Su Tangtang entered, before she could even change her shoes, Huo Yizhou grabbed her and hugged her for less than three seconds before kissing her.
The two kissed for a long time in the entryway before separating.
After changing her shoes, Su Tangtang walked into the living room and began to take a closer look at his home. The living room was decorated in a simple yet elegant style, with a brightly colored painting hanging on the wall, adding a touch of brightness to the clean space and softening the original coldness.
"What are we going to do today?" Su Tangtang asked, sinking into the sofa.
The sofa was exceptionally soft, and she couldn't help but change her position, lying down comfortably. "This sofa is so comfortable."
Huo Yizhou sat down next to her. "You can do whatever you want."
He paused, then added, "Indeed, I often lie here after work, and when I'm too tired, I just fall asleep here."
Su Tangtang propped herself up and gently cupped his face in her hands. "Boyfriend, you've worked so hard."
Huo Yizhou took her hand and placed a light kiss on her palm.
Su Tangtang felt an itch in her palms, which stirred up ripples in her heart as well.
Huo Yizhou gazed at her, and couldn't help but kiss her lips again.
Su Tangtang leaned back on the sofa, and Huo Yizhou followed suit, leaning close to her.
The kiss was more passionate than ever before, their breaths mingling, their clothes slipping to the floor in disarray.
After what seemed like an eternity, the two separated, slightly out of breath. Su Tangtang's voice was soft and sweet, "Don't you want to?"
Huo Yizhou chuckled softly, his voice a little hoarse, "I'd like to, but I'll wait a bit longer."
Su Tangtang pouted, her innocent and endearing expression making her ask, "What are we waiting for?"
"After I've met your family," Huo Yizhou said softly.
Su Tangtang's eyes shone with light, "I want to take you back right now."
Huo Yizhou smiled, "Shall we go?"
Upon hearing this, Su Tangtang chuckled.
The two didn't go anywhere; they just stayed on the sofa, cuddling and cuddling until noon.
They cooked lunch together.
Su Tangtang handed the washed vegetables to Huo Yizhou, and as he took them, he stole a kiss on her lips.
Su Tangtang subconsciously gave him a light bite.
Huo Yizhou hissed in agreement.
"I didn't use any force," Su Tangtang retorted playfully. Huo Yizhou's eyes crinkled with amusement. "Then let me try biting you?"
Su Tangtang immediately turned around and slipped out of the kitchen, saying, "No way."
She sat down in the living room and picked up her phone to browse Weibo.
As soon as I clicked into the trending topics page, I saw my name on it.
The topic is: #Su Tangtang's relationship with her boyfriend was faked, and they broke up immediately after the show ended#
Su Tangtang frowned, about to click to take a closer look, when Ji Tingmeng called.
"Sister Ji."
A calm voice came from the other end of the phone, "You saw the trending topics, right? Is your relationship with your boyfriend real? Give me a straight answer."
“Of course it’s true,” Su Tangtang said with certainty. “I’m at his house right now.”
"That's good. The best way to dispel rumors is for you two to show your affection by posting on Weibo or going live."
“No problem,” Su Tangtang readily agreed.
Ji Tingmeng continued, "The company is already investigating who is behind this, and we will notify you as soon as we have any news."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, Su Tangtang opened the comment section of the trending topic.
"I told you they were fake, but Tangtang's fans didn't believe me."
"This story has been told eight hundred times already."
"We're used to it."
"That's right, that's right."
Haters continue to attack her, but most of her true fans don't care.
Su Tangtang took her phone and walked into the kitchen, handing the screen to Huo Yizhou.
Huo Yizhou glanced at it but didn't say anything.
He simply turned on the camera and held it up in front of the two of them.
With a "click," an intimate group photo was captured.
Then, he turned his head and kissed Su Tangtang's lips, pressing the shutter to take another picture.
He posted the two photos directly on Weibo using his own account: "We are real, you can see for yourselves."
Before long, Weibo exploded with discussion.
Su Tangtang opened the comments section again and saw that her fans were already overjoyed:
"See! I told you they were real!"
"What a huge amount of dog food!"
"I've always believed in them!"
"Ahhh, this is so sweet! Can you guys do a live stream?"
"I also want a live stream!"
Looking at these comments, Su Tangtang couldn't help but smile.
-
In the pitch-black room, Wu Xiaojia slammed her phone to the ground.
Didn't they say they broke up a long time ago?
Why did things turn out this way?
Was that person playing her from the very beginning?
She abruptly sat up in bed, pulled back the heavy curtains, and the darkness was instantly dispelled, letting in blinding light.
She picked up the phone; the screen was cracked, but it was still usable. She dialed the number that had contacted her yesterday.
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.
"You lied to me?" Wu Xiaojia's voice trembled with anger.
The other person sounded clearly impatient, "I was tricked too. I clearly asked her if we had broken up, and she didn't deny it at the time!"
Wu Xiaojia was trembling with anger. She originally wanted to ruin Su Tangtang's reputation, but instead, Su Tangtang took the opportunity to show off her love and garnered even more blessings.
She didn't say anything and hung up the phone immediately.
Trembling, she opened her mobile banking app. The balance on the screen stung her eyes; she only had a thousand yuan left. This time, she had almost spent all her savings, only to end up with nothing.
-
Soon, the person behind it was identified.
When Ji Tingmeng called, Su Tangtang was having dinner with Huo Yizhou. She put down her chopsticks and said calmly, "They investigated quite quickly."
"I was just guessing who it was, and I did think it might be her, but I didn't expect it to be her."
Ji Tingmeng asked on the other end of the phone, "What are you planning to do?"
"Sue," Su Tangtang answered crisply.
Does she really think she's easy to bully because she doesn't fight back?
Ji Tingmeng replied, "Okay."
The next day, as Su Tangtang finished her activities and was about to leave, she was stopped by someone.
The person who came was Wu Xiaojia.
Her face was ashen, with heavy dark circles under her eyes, and she looked utterly dejected. The online abuse had already overwhelmed her.
"Su Tangtang, do you really have to be so ruthless?" Her voice was hoarse.
Su Tangtang frowned. "Aren't you going to stop now?"
“But you weren’t affected at all, were you?” Wu Xiaojia retorted excitedly.
"So I should just let you bully me and not fight back?" Su Tangtang retorted coldly.
Wu Xiaojia was speechless for a moment, and after a long while she whispered, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up like this..."
“Your current situation has nothing to do with me,” Su Tangtang said sternly. “I have never intentionally harmed you. You are in this situation entirely because of your own actions.”
Wu Xiaojia laughed, but the laughter was bitter and desperate.
She knew she was completely finished.
She was resentful. Why could Su Tangtang have such a smooth life while she had nothing? Why did good fortune always favor Su Tangtang, while she was always destined to be unlucky?
Why should I?!
Her laughter grew increasingly manic, prompting passersby to raise their phones to take pictures.
Su Tangtang gestured for the staff to step forward and stop them.
“All of this is your own fault,” Su Tangtang said, looking at her and enunciating each word clearly.
After saying that, she didn't want to say anything more and turned to leave, but unexpectedly saw Gu Qingke.
Su Tangtang felt annoyed. Today was indeed not a good day to go out, and of all days, she had to run into someone she didn't want to see.
She glanced at it briefly and continued walking forward.
Wu Xiaojia stared intently at her back, her eyes surging with malice, and she gripped the object in her hand tighter and tighter.
Since the incident was exposed, she has been subjected to widespread online abuse. Now she doesn't even dare to turn on her phone. Those vicious words are like knives stabbing into her heart, plunging her into despair.
Her eyes hardened, and seeing Su Tangtang about to reach the car, she suddenly rushed over!
Upon seeing this, Gu Qingke immediately rushed forward.
Just as Su Tangtang opened the car door, Gu Qingke stepped in front of her, the sharp blade piercing straight into his chest.
Everything happened so fast that by the time Su Tangtang reacted, Gu Qingke had already collapsed behind her.
Wu Xiaojia covered her mouth in horror and staggered backward.
Why...why wasn't Su Tangtang the one who got hurt?
Why did Gu Qingke take that knife for her?
The scene immediately descended into chaos.
Ji Tingmeng quickly called the police and an ambulance.
Su Tangtang knelt beside Gu Qingke and called out urgently, "Gu Qingke!"
Gu Qingke felt weak all over, her head was spinning, she felt intense pain from her wound, and her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier.
"Gu Qingke, don't sleep, wake up!" Su Tangtang gripped his hand tightly.
Gu Qingke spoke with difficulty, "Tang...Tang..."
He managed a weak smile.
"If I...die..."
Will you... forgive me...?
He spoke with difficulty.
"You won't die, hang in there, the ambulance will be here soon," Su Tangtang said in a strained voice.
She was filled with mixed emotions, never expecting that Gu Qingke would take that blow for her.
She looked up at Ji Tingmeng, "Has the ambulance arrived?"
"I'll be there soon."
The police arrived quickly and took Wu Xiaojia, who was standing there in a daze, away.
Not long after the police car left, the ambulance arrived at the scene. Su Tangtang got into the ambulance and kept calling out Gu Qingke's name, but he had already fallen into a coma.
Upon arrival at the hospital, Gu Qingke was quickly taken into the operating room.
Su Tangtang stood outside the door, feeling uneasy.
Not long after, Huo Yizhou and Su Tanghao also arrived.
Huo Yizhou gently put his arm around her shoulder and whispered, "Don't worry, he'll be fine."
Su Tangtang leaned against him and nodded silently.
