Chapter 484 Screwing Everything Down
When Grandma Gu saw Han Xi following behind her, she quickly waved for her to come over.
"Han Xi, what's going on? What happened between the two of them?"
Han Xi was also in a dilemma, as Zhuo Qingqian was not only angry but also in pain.
"Grandma, something's happened, and I can't explain it to you right now. Let them calm down first."
Grandma Gu said anxiously, "How can this be? We've already brought up the issue of divorce. Qianqian, your health is precious right now, you can't go running around."
Zhuo Qingqian knew they valued the child in her womb, but she didn't want the child to be born with the title of a murderer's mother, as Gu Beichen had suggested.
Gu Beichen had already chased after her. Zhuo Qingqian looked at Shen Jiheng and said, "President Shen, could you please help me intercept this person? I want to be alone for a while."
When this name was mentioned on Shen Jiheng, he looked at Han Xi with difficulty, knowing that he couldn't interfere in this matter.
"Qianqian, don't go. We still have things to talk about. Let me explain."
"I don't want to hear it. Since things have come to this, let's just let it be better for both of us."
Gu Beichen shook his head excitedly. Seeing that he wanted to step forward, Han Xi immediately gave Shen Jiheng a look, and only then did he step forward to block him.
Things have come to this point, and even if Gu Beichen forces her to stay, things won't change; in fact, they'll only get worse.
"Shen Jiheng, what are you doing? Get out of the way, Qianqian is leaving."
Han Xi said, "She doesn't want to stay right now, and there's no point in forcing her. Just let her have some peace and quiet."
Zhuo Qingqian cast a grateful glance at him; only Han Xi knew what she was thinking.
Gu Beichen forcefully pushed Shen Jiheng's hand away, only to have Shen Jiheng press his hand against the wall and remind him, "You're too emotional right now, calm down."
Zhuo Qingqian left quickly without turning back, not listening to anything Gu Beichen said.
Han Xi was worried and followed, so naturally he couldn't let her go alone at this time.
Gu Beichen said angrily, "If you don't let go of her, she'll leave. Are you even my brother? Help me stop her."
Grandma Gu was so anxious she almost jumped up, "What happened? Why are you all like this?"
Shen Jiheng looked at Grandma Gu and comforted her, "Grandma, it's just a quarrel between young people, nothing serious."
Then he asked Gu Beichen, "Given the current situation, what can you do by keeping her here? You might as well think about why she left so resolutely."
Gu Beichen was stunned, and Shen Jiheng only let go after hearing the car leave.
Gu Beichen looked up and saw Zhuo Qingqian's car drive away through the living room glass.
He collapsed to the ground, clutching his hair tightly.
“What have I done? I cursed at her and even talked about Han Xi. I’ve really gone crazy.”
Shen Jiheng said with a headache, "We spent a lot of effort to deal with these problems and finally got back on track, but you messed everything up."
"But all the bad things she did..."
She didn't do it!
Shen Jiheng interrupted him directly, and from his reaction, he could roughly understand why Zhuo Qingqian was angry.
That's because Gu Beichen didn't really understand the problem at all; instead, he took things out of context and picked out the unpleasant parts.
Gu Beichen was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
Shen Jiheng said, "You should understand this matter more thoroughly before talking to her. It will be better for both of you. Han Xi will be fine with her by her side, at least it's better than her being with you."
After Shen Jiheng finished speaking, he looked at Grandma Gu and said, "Grandma, don't worry, we'll take care of things."
Grandma Gu nodded worriedly and murmured, "I believe in Han Xi. You two should discuss things properly and not break up so easily. Qianqian is also a good girl. Don't let her down."
Gu Beichen thought of what he had just said and wanted to slap himself twice.
"Qianqian may never forgive me."
Shen Jiheng was also troubled. He had finally managed to send the person back, but it ended like this.
Han Xi was driving, and Zhuo Qingqian was sitting in the passenger seat wiping away tears. How could she not be heartbroken to be spoken to like that by the person she loved?
Han Xi handed him a tissue and comforted him, "Don't be sad. He's just a straightforward person, and he's not mature enough yet. He didn't understand the whole story."
Zhuo Qingqian shook her head: "He was taking the opportunity to express his true feelings. Actually, I feel relieved. What saddens me is that our relationship of more than ten years ended without a trace."
"Things are still undecided, so don't be so absolute. Can you really let him go?"
"You heard what he said, we can never go back."
Han Xi understood her feelings and could only offer her comfort.
"Don't think about anything for now, calm down for a while before we talk. I'll take you home now."
Zhuo Qingqian thought for a moment and said, "Take me to Hengtian Hospital."
Han Xi looked at her in surprise, frowned and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Zhuo Qingqian stroked her belly and said, "This child came at the wrong time. Perhaps it was destined not to exist. I don't want to become the link that binds us together in the future. I've already thought it through."
Han Xi shook her head: "Calm down. You went through so much to save this child. Do you know what it means to abort it?"
Zhuo Qingqian nodded: "Of course I know. It means cutting ties with the Gu family, which is exactly what I want. Gu Beichen is still unwilling to let go, and that's why."
Those words truly broke her heart, and Zhuo Qingqian couldn't let it go.
Han Xi parked the car on the side of the road, held her hand and said, "Qianqian, I know how you feel right now. I'm just as angry as you are, but don't make decisions when you're angry. Wait a couple of days before you talk about it."
Zhuo Qingqian released her hand, looked ahead and said, "Take me home, I haven't seen my parents in a long time."
Seeing that she didn't answer his question, Han Xi said anxiously, "Do you understand what I mean? Don't do anything foolish."
Zhuo Qingqian smiled and said, "I am more clear-headed than ever, Xi Xi, thank you, my good friend."
These words sent chills down Han Xi's spine. She emphasized, "Qianqian, listen to me, this isn't your fault. You can't punish yourself, understand?"
"Don't worry, I'm calm and won't do anything foolish." Zhuo Qingqian's composure made Han Xi uneasy.
She took a deep breath and said, "I haven't seen my uncle and the others in a long time either, so I'll go and keep you company for a couple of days."
She was worried about leaving Zhuo Qingqian alone at home and had to accompany her the whole time to feel at ease.
Zhuo Qingqian nodded with a smile: "Okay, you can keep me company and help me pass the time."
Han Xi sensed that she was deliberately hiding her emotions, which was the worst-case scenario.
Han Xi restarted the car, her mind a jumble of thoughts.
What exactly is Bo Siye, that bastard, up to? Why is he ruining other people's relationships?
An hour later, the car stopped in front of the Zhuo family's house. Zhuo Qingqian said, "Xi Xi, I haven't been back for a long time. If I go back empty-handed, my mom will definitely nag me. There's a supermarket across the street. Let's go buy something."
Han Xi couldn't go empty-handed, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go buy something too."
Zhuo Qingqian nodded with a smile. Her sudden return to calm made Han Xi uneasy.
Anyway, what she needs to do now is to stay close to Zhuo Qingqian and prevent anything from happening again.
