Chapter 487: Rhetoric, Sorry
Standing behind the door, Gu Yanchuan hesitated for a moment.
He didn't know why he chased after her. He had clearly told himself over and over again that he should not forgive that woman easily. But when he watched her turn and leave, his heart ached.
He only knew that he wanted to rush forward regardless of the consequences and tell her not to abandon him.
With his hand on the door handle, Gu Yanchuan vaguely recalled his younger self. At that time, he was not brave enough to tell her that he loved her very much and he didn't want to lose her.
He just looked at her stupidly and said nothing.
squeak--
The door of the ward opened.
Gu Yanchuan stood at the door, staring blankly at the figure that was getting farther and farther away.
She walked to the corner, and Gu Yanchuan saw her looking back. When their eyes met, she looked surprised.
Gu Yanchuan opened his mouth but failed to shout out those words.
In the end, I still don’t dare to bet that she loves him too.
There seemed to be tears in her eyes.
But she left anyway.
"Don't go. Don't leave me again." Gu Yanchuan heard himself saying in a low voice.
The sound was so small, so small that she might not even hear the aftermath as she had walked far away.
Gu Yanchuan hated his cowardice and inferiority.
He didn't keep her after all.
Sheng Beibei stood beside him in silence. After hearing what he said, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
This little fool actually cares about his mother a lot.
"Yanchuan." Sheng Beibei put her hand on his shoulder. "Auntie had to go back first because of something urgent. She didn't mean to abandon you."
Hearing this, Gu Yanchuan turned around, looked at Sheng Beibei with tearful eyes, and suddenly hugged her in his arms, holding her tightly.
He rested his head on her neck, his shoulders shrugged, and faint whimpering sounds were heard.
Sheng Beibei knew that he was feeling upset, so she raised her hand and gently patted his back.
"Yanchuan, it's okay, I'm here."
"Xiao Bei." Gu Yanchuan said sullenly, "Don't leave me."
Sheng Beibei coaxed him softly: "Silly boy, I won't leave you."
…
China Capital Airport.
After getting off the plane, Su Man met Butler Zhong who came to pick her up at the exit. Behind him were several muscular bodyguards wearing sunglasses.
Butler Zhong walked quickly to Su Man.
"Ma'am, I'm here to take you back."
Su Man felt something strange in her heart, and she didn't follow him immediately: "Didn't you say that Xiu Ci's situation was very serious? As a housekeeper, why didn't you stay by his side?"
Butler Zhong tightened his grip unconsciously, but remained calm on the surface: "It is precisely because your condition is serious that I came to pick you up."
"Really?" Su Man looked behind Butler Zhong suspiciously.
Is it necessary to bring so many bodyguards?
"Madam, please come with me." Butler Zhong said anxiously, "The doctor said that you may not make it. He wants to see you again."
Butler Zhong acted as if Ji Xiuci was going to die soon, and Su Man didn't have time to think about it for a moment.
Besides, there was no need for Ji Xiuci to make such a joke that could be easily exposed.
"Butler Zhong, take me to see Xiu Ci first."
Following Butler Zhong into the car, the driver started the car and sped away. Su Man thought Butler Zhong would take her to the hospital, but the direction was clearly the way back to Ji's house.
Looking at the increasingly familiar street scene outside the window, Su Man frowned and asked, "Which hospital are we going to?"
"Madam, the doctor said that the master's injury is too serious and there is no need for medical treatment." Butler Zhong's eyes were filled with tears. "It is said that fallen leaves return to their roots. The master wants to spend the last few days at home."
Su Man's heart skipped a beat.
“It’s so serious!”
What does it mean to return to one's roots? Is this just waiting to die at home?
Su Man asked sharply, "Are you giving up treatment just like that?"
Butler Zhong said, "Madam, the doctor has done his best."
The scene of Ji Xiuci falling heavily to the ground yesterday appeared in front of her eyes. Su Man didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she seemed to see the back of his head hitting the ground with a frightening dull sound.
"No, I want to take him to a better hospital." Su Man tightly grasped the bag in her hand, "If it doesn't work in China, we can go abroad. There will always be a way."
Soon, the car stopped at Ji's house.
Su Man trotted into the villa, only to see a familiar figure standing in the living room with his hands behind his back.
Without waiting for Su Man to think about it, he turned around and revealed Ji Xiuci's stern face.
"Rhetoric, you..."
All the abnormalities that had been forcibly suppressed burst out, and when all the details that happened in the past two days were connected together, Su Man realized how stupid she was to have been fooled by Ji Xiuci.
Su Man turned around subconsciously, but saw more than ten or twenty bodyguards with their hands clasped and legs apart, blocking her way.
He leaned close to her back, and cold words came from above her head: "Manman, you finally decided to come back."
"You lied to me?"
"If I hadn't used some tricks to trick you back to China, you would have already been living with that old bastard Gu Sinan."
The warm breath caressed her ear, like a lover whispering, but the words he spoke were cruel. Before she could retort, her wrist was grabbed with a sudden force, forcing Su Man to turn around and face him.
"You turned off your phone and didn't answer the phone last night. I guess you and Gu Sinan had a lot of fun."
Suman knew that the endless quarrels and speculations had begun again.
"I didn't." Su Man suppressed her impatience. "It was wrong of me not to answer the phone all night, but there was really nothing between me and Gu Sinan. I was taking care of Gu Yanchuan. You know he was in the hospital."
"The boy only suffered some minor injuries. Does he need your care?"
After learning that Gu Yanchuan was only slightly injured, Ji Xiuci was so angry that he was about to explode. Damn, that guy is really lucky. He was only slightly injured after being shot. Such an evil creature should have died long ago.
"I think you just can't forget your old love for Gu Sinan, so you went abroad to meet him."
Ji Xiuci shook her shoulders with red eyes: "Su Man, are you so hungry? Is Gu Sinan so strong? Is he so unforgettable to you?"
In front of so many people, he said such dirty words and trampled on her dignity.
Su Man's eyes gradually became colder than ever before, and she just stared straight at her former lover.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that the man in front of her had become very unfamiliar, and she couldn't find any trace of him from the past. She began to doubt the meaning of staying with him all these years.
"I can satisfy you too!" Ji Xiuci said as he was about to drag Su Man upstairs, but he met her cold eyes.
His hand paused.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Su Man stared at his face, thinking back to every detail of the past few years, and realized that no matter how she brainwashed herself, no matter how she told herself that she should love him, they could no longer go back to the past.
"Rhetoric, sorry."
Ji Xiuci was inexplicably flustered and interrupted her hastily: "Manman, don't look at me like that. You clearly loved me in the past. Please don't look at me like that. Can you please not look at me the same way you used to?"
"That's not the look."
"I'm sorry, Xiuci, I should have admitted it earlier." Tears as big as beans fell from Su Man's eyes, and Ji Xiuci looked pleading and shook his head.
"Rhetoric, I don't love you anymore."
