Chapter 209 Gu Xia, I want to see you
Seeing Ning Anran smiled.
Gu Xia was stunned. She didn't expect that Ning Anran could actually laugh when she was talking about such a serious topic.
Is this something funny?
"Xia Xia, are you saying you drove them all back?"
"That's very well done."
"That just solved my problem. Thank you, Xia Xia."
Ning Anran's fingers fell on the thin gauze, and she intended to remove the gauze that was blocking her vision.
"Don't move, your eyes are not healed yet."
"Can't see the light."
The worry is palpable.
Gu Xia immediately grabbed Ning Anran's wrist, trying to stop Ning Anran's actions.
"I want to see you."
The gauze fell off and landed on Gu Xia's fair wrist, and Ning Anran's eye sockets, which had been wrapped for several days, finally saw the light of day again.
There was a faint bloodstain on the bridge of her nose, and there was also a small scar at the corner of Ning Anran's eye. Her eyes were not as dark as before, but had a faint, indescribable haziness.
Unable to focus his vision, Ning Anran could only see a rough outline in front of him.
But she knew that her eyes were getting better and recovering.
"You're still so beautiful, Xia Xia."
It was just an outline, but Ning Anran was already very satisfied.
She had been traveling in the darkness for a long, long time, until this moment, when she finally saw the light again.
"Stop...playing around."
How can I not feel sad?
When Gu Xia saw the wound on Ning Anran's eye socket, he almost couldn't breathe.
Gu Xia had seen all the injuries on Ning Anran's body and applied medicine to them all, but the only wound on Ning Anran's eye socket was something Gu Xia had never seen before.
Gu Xia picked up the gauze with his fingers and wrapped it around Ning Anran again.
…
Comfort Ning Anran.
Gu Xia finally had time to walk out of the ward. With his fingertips tapping on his mobile phone, he received the tracking information he had wanted most in the past few days.
“Gu Xia…?”
A soft cry made Gu Xia look up, and he saw Ning Jin standing outside the door and being stopped by Ning Anran's bodyguard.
"Since Miss Gu is here, I can always go in and see Ning Anran."
Ning Jin glanced at Ning Anran's bodyguard who looked like a sculpture, and felt a little angry.
"I'm so sorry, miss."
"Miss Gu has instructed that no one is allowed to enter, no matter who it is."
The bodyguard spoke with confidence, and Ning Jin was so angry that he was speechless.
"You want to see An Ran?"
"Why?"
Putting the phone back in her palm, Gu Xia raised her eyebrows, stepped on the ground with her leather shoes, took two steps forward, and looked down at Ning Jin.
No compromise.
Ning Jin felt guilty being looked at by Gu Xia, but her expression remained unchanged. After all, she had been in the Ning family for more than 20 years, so she shouldn't be so frightened that her legs went weak by such a scene.
"I want to apologize to her."
"I know that it was the money I gave to those two scumbags that exposed her to the eyes of those scumbags, which is why what happened today happened."
"I'm not targeting anyone, I'm the cause of this incident, I need to make it clear with her."
Ning Jin came here half out of guilt, and of course there was also a half possibility that he wanted to put on a show for Ning Anran's biological parents.
Gu Xia did not delve into the reason for her appearance, nor did he want to delve into the reason for her appearance.
"Do you think your apology now will be of any use?"
Gu Xia did not let him go.
Ning Anran knew very well what she was feeling at the moment. Ning Jin was not the culprit, but just a chess piece that was used at the right time.
"Whether it's useful or not, I apologized to prove that I had nothing to do with this matter."
"I know you all don't believe I wasn't involved in this, but I want to say, no means no."
"If I really wanted to use such dirty tricks, I would have established a firm foothold in the Ning family long ago."
Ning Jin had thought countless times that if he could be a little more ruthless, perhaps he could get rid of the title of "mediocrity".
But she didn't in the end.
It is painful to admit and accept your own mediocrity, but it is not something that cannot be done.
Looking at Ning Jin's red eyes, Gu Xia ignored her and walked forward.
"Gu Xia, doesn't Ning Anran have the right to know the truth? Doesn't she want to know who hurt her?"
"I told her clearly that I was helping her—"
Listening to the words of the people around her, Gu Xia turned around. She ignored Ning Jin and kept a distance between them.
"I don't need your help."
"I will take care of An Ran's affairs myself. Whoever hurt her, I will find the culprit."
Because he was afraid of death and that the tragedy in the novel would happen again, Gu Xia took off his once fully armed "armor" in front of Ning Anran and everyone else.
She followed the plan given by the system step by step, no longer being as arrogant and conceited as before.
Gu Xia pulled out her own thorn with her own hands. She began to understand her sister, her parents, and tried to understand Ning Anran's closed heart.
At this moment, in order to protect the one he loved, Gu Xia picked up the sword again.
"Ning Jin, you have to understand that you are here to apologize, not to beg for forgiveness."
"Of course you can apologize. It's your right to apologize to Ning Anran or anyone else. But if you think you're doing a good deed or showing mercy, then let me tell you, Anran won't need it."
"An Ran has never needed your pity. She has come this far thanks to her own ability."
"Even without the Ning family, Ning Anran would still grow into a towering tree."
Gu Xia said firmly.
"Ning Jin, do you think An Ran doesn't know about these things?"
Gu Xia saw all of Ning Anran's efforts.
"Ning Jin, you're still angry. You think An Ran's sudden visit disrupted your life, right?"
"Then do you know that during the past twenty years of your comfortable life, every time she looked at the review materials, she would prick herself with a pen to remind herself not to fall asleep."
Gu Xia lowered his eyes, and every word he spoke was like a steel needle, piercing into the hearts of the two people.
One was her, and the other was the speechless Ning Jin.
"You hate that rotten couple, but what about An Ran? Doesn't she hate them too?"
"Do you know how Anran's life is controlled? She is like a lonely kite. She is drenched in the pouring rain, yet she is still entangled by those four hands..."
Step closer.
Gu Xia's words seemed to be examining Ning Jin's true inner thoughts.
"She could only cut the kite string with her own hands, transforming herself into something neither human nor ghost, completely abandoning all emotions and all normal cognition."
"She can survive."
"And the origin of all this is because of the greed of your biological parents."
Having said that, Gu Xia smiled again as if in self-mockery.
"Of course you can say that those bastards had nothing to do with you and that you were unaware of it. But then, what gives you the right to just brush off what An Ran has endured?"
"Don't you think your apology is still just a condescending display of your kindness?"
The breeze in the corridor blew Gu Xia's long hair, and her eyes, as smart as a black cat, made Ning Jin stunned.
"If you really want to apologize to An Ran, then take some concrete action."
"None of those people from the Ning family will escape from my hands."
