Chapter 125 But you should have trusted me.
"Uncle, since you mentioned this, I have to come clean with you! I did say something about grandma's pension being taken away by you guys, didn't I?"
"I didn't bother with you because I thought you were her son, but what did you do with the money? You gambled it all away! Now, think about it, in the past six months or so, have I ever asked you for a single penny?"
Gu Xiangsi took a step forward.
"And Song Hefan, what he did to me, if I hand over the evidence, you will all have to work on sewing machines!"
"I only endured it because Grandma had just come out of surgery and couldn't handle the anger. But you guys are still clamoring to see her now, even though she just came out of the operating room! What on earth do you want? You really don't want her to have a good life, right?"
As soon as Gu Xiangsi finished speaking, Chen Fang put her hands on her hips and moved forward. She glanced at her clothes, glanced at the person next to her, and said in a sarcastic tone.
"Gu Xiangsi, I know you're good at talking. But aren't you rich? What's wrong with borrowing some money from that boss next to you? Look at what you're wearing now, it's really different from before."
Gu Xiangsi's face turned cold, and she was too lazy to argue with her: "I don't want to waste any more time talking to you. If you still want to make trouble here, I don't mind handing over all the evidence I have accumulated to the sir."
Chen Fang wanted to move forward, still yelling something unfinished, but Li Xiaoyao didn't give her a chance to continue pestering her. He raised his chin towards the bodyguard and said, "Pull him aside. Don't block us here."
He immediately stepped forward, held several people on the left and right, and quickly and efficiently led them away.
Just two seconds after I got quiet, the doorbell in the ward suddenly rang, and Lin Xiu's voice came from inside.
Aunt Li was busy opening the door.
"Miss Gu, grandma has woken up and said she wants to see you."
Gu Xiangsi's heart tightened, and without waiting for others to react, he walked in first.
As soon as she reached the bedside, she saw Lin Xiu trying to sit up with her arms, so she hurried forward to hold him down, her tone a little anxious and a little angry.
"Grandma, you just had surgery, don't move!" His eyes softened and he gently tucked the corner of the quilt for the grandma.
She patted Gu Xiangsi's hand, her voice still a little weak: "Sisi, are they coming outside? Let them..." Before she finished speaking, she couldn't help coughing twice.
Gu Xiangsi quickly rubbed her back and whispered, "Don't worry about them. Taking good care of your health is the most important thing."
She leaned over and whispered a few words into Lin Xiu's ear.
Lin Xiu looked up in surprise, and saw her lower her head with a light in her eyes. "Let them go. I don't want to see them again in this life."
When Gu Xiangsi came out of the ward, the corridor had become much quieter.
Fu Sinian was standing by the window, his fingertips casually resting on the window frame. He just raised his chin and signaled Li Xiaoyao to take the person away.
Gu Ye was still standing there, his head lowered, his hair covering his eyes, and even his breathing was light.
When Song Ping and others were carried by security guards past him, his shoulders shrank almost imperceptibly and his head lowered even lower.
Fu Sinian withdrew his gaze and swept his eyes across the corridor. His voice was cold without a trace of warmth, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
"Go and guard the door of the ward."
Said to Gu Ye.
He paused, his tone becoming more stern, "If anyone dares to break into the ward again, I'll break their legs."
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Ping's struggle froze instantly, and the anger on his face also froze, leaving only a bit of fear.
The arrogance that was just now being shouted at was completely suppressed, and he could only be dragged away by the security guards with his head down.
In the ward, intermittent sobbing sounds were heard.
Gu Xiangsi paced back and forth at the entrance of the corridor, his fingertips unconsciously clenching the corner of his clothes, his face showing unconcealable anxiety.
Seeing this, Fu Sinian walked over, gently held her wrist, and pulled her to sit on the chair next to him. The warmth of his palm passed steadily to her.
"Don't panic, Uncle Gu looks like a steady man, he'll be fine."
Hearing this, Gu Xiangsi's tense shoulders relaxed a little, and the stone in his heart fell a little.
She raised her eyes, her voice still a little soft: "Then about my dad... and Aunt Zhou..."
Fu Sinian raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head. There was a hint of subtle grievance in his tone, and it also concealed the questioning that he had been holding back for five years.
"So, when you found out about my mom's relationship with Gu Shuhe, and my brother was instigating it, and something happened in your family, you just gave up on me?"
Gu Xiangsi raised her eyes and met his, which were filled with inquiry and a bit of unconcealable resentment.
Her heart tightened, and she quickly lowered her head, her fingertips picking at the hem of her skirt: "The relationship was too complicated at that time, and your mother...she didn't agree with us being together in the first place."
As soon as this was mentioned, Fu Sinian's frustration and discomfort surged up again. The five years of separation were like a thorn, which hurt at the slightest touch.
"But you should have trusted me."
His eyes fell on her downcast face, but his gaze accidentally swept to her neck.
The SS necklace was swaying gently with her movements, emitting tiny rays of light under the light, which stung his eyes.
But the next second, the stinging pain was replaced by warmth, his Adam's apple moved, and his heart softened.
Fortunately, she didn't really get too stuck in it.
Fortunately, his five years of patience were not in vain.
Fu Sinian reached out and pulled the person into his arms, patted her back gently with his palm, and spoke in a soft voice.
"It's okay, everything will be fine."
He sighed again, and rubbed her shoulders with a hint of heartache on his fingertips. "Grandma's condition is stable now. I'll have someone arrange to send her to the small house in Lam Tsuen?"
He paused, "I've had it redecorated and have medical staff guarding it."
He explained the follow-up arrangements: "Send grandma and your father over in the next two days. I will send people to keep an eye on them and protect them. We will also have new progress on our side soon."
Gu Xiangsi looked up at him in surprise: "Have you arranged everything?"
Fu Sinian nodded, with a little more certainty in his words.
"Just wait and see about the land the Chen and Zhao families have taken this time. Within half a month, they will definitely come knocking on our door."
"Why don't you go to Lin Village with me?" he asked.
Gu Xiangsi shook her head. She knew that he wanted to arrange everything properly again and didn't want to get herself into any trouble.
"Then you must stay by my side all the time." Fu Sinian looked at her with a hint of persistence in his eyes.
Seeing Gu Xiangsi nod, he curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction, and the melancholy in his eyes dissipated a little.
Gu Ye and Lin Xiu chatted in the ward for about twenty minutes. When they came out, they were wearing masks and there was a little redness at the corners of their eyes, obviously they had just shed tears.
Fu Sinian stood up, glanced around the corridor, and then lowered his voice: "Uncle Gu, I will arrange everything here. The manor you lived in before was too crowded, so I found another place for you."
Gu Ye did not refuse, but just said softly, "Thank you."
Fu Sinian nodded and added, "Let's go eat something first. I'll also arrange for someone to watch over grandma, so don't worry."
Gu Xiangsi took a step forward and subconsciously wanted to hold Gu Ye's arm.
She hadn't been this close to her father for a long time, and her heart was filled with the urge to get closer.
But before her hand touched his sleeve, Gu Ye took half a step back, his voice gentle but with a warning.
"This is a hospital."
Gu Xiangsi paused before realizing that the occasion was inappropriate. He silently withdrew his hand that was stretched out in the air, and curled his fingertips slightly.
A subtle sense of loss passed through my heart.
