Chapter 99

ichen didn't expect Lin Xiaoru to give such an answer. He was taken aback and looked at her tear-streaked smiling face, feeling a pang of sympathy. He reached out and pulled her into his arms."Fool,"...After a moment of silence, Gu Chi opened his thin lips slightly. Su Ke Xin thought he was going to question her again, and she was nervous about how to answer. Unexpectedly, she heard him whisper, "You rest well, I'll have Wang Ma make some chicken soup for you."

Su Keixin was taken aback and looked up at Gu Chi. She was wondering why he suddenly stopped pressing her for answers, but before she could think further, Gu Chi's big hand covered her eyes.

"Go to sleep. We can talk about it when you wake up."

Gu Zhi's voice was low, like fine velvet brushing against her eardrums.

Su Ke Xin had taken painkillers before, and now she was indeed feeling a bit drowsy. She nodded obediently and closed her eyes.

I don't know why, but every time I'm around Gu Chi, I seem to fall asleep especially easily.

Just as she was drifting off to sleep, she suddenly felt a soft touch on her forehead.

Then, a low sigh sounded in his ears —

"Su Ke Xin, what am I supposed to do with you"

……

After Su Keqin fell asleep, Yang Zuo went to the hospital with a pot of chicken soup that Wang Ma had just stewed.

"Mr. Gu, this is—" Yang Zuo walked into the ward, just about to speak when Gu Chi made a shushing gesture.

Yang Zhao was taken aback and only then noticed Su Kexin sound asleep on the bed. He quickly clamped his mouth shut and followed Gu Chi out of the ward.

"Speak." Gu Chi finally spoke in a light tone as they reached the corridor, "Have you figured out what happened to Su Ke Xin's injuries"

"Well, I asked the building's security guard, and a lot of people saw it."

"What on earth is going on"

"Their magazine exposed a corrupt food processing factory, right The factory went bankrupt and owed a lot of workers' wages. Now they can't even pay those wages, so an extreme worker is planning to seek revenge on Gu Yichen, and..." Yang Zuo trailed off, hesitant to continue.

Gu Chi's black eyes sank slightly, "Speak."

Yang Zuo forced himself to continue, "That person was attacking Gu Yichan, but the young mistress, in order to protect him, rushed forward to block. The assailant got angry and stabbed the young mistress."

Yang Zuo, as he spoke, carefully observed Gu Chi's expression.

But Gu Zhi's expression remained calm.

Yang Zu couldn't help but feel surprised.

He still thought Gu Shao cared about his wife, could it be his illusion

"What else" Gu Chi merely said lightly.

"And… there's also what people at the scene said, that Gu Yichan seemed very nervous about the young mistress's situation," Yang Zuo said, "He even personally carried the young mistress to the hospital..."

Gu Chi's black eyes suddenly darkened.

"I see." But outwardly, Gu Chi still didn't show too much fluctuation. "Go ahead and busy yourself," he said.

Yang Zhao wiped the cold sweat from his brow, nodded, and was about to leave, but unintentionally saw Gu Chi's wheelchair armrest, and couldn't help but freeze.

It was only then that Gu Chi realized he had been gripping the wheelchair armrest so tightly. As he released his hold, he saw four deep indentations in the rubber, as if they had been pressed there with great force.

When Su Keqin woke up, Gu Chi was still by her bedside. Seeing that she had woken up, he poured chicken soup from the thermos beside him and said in a calm tone, "Drink the soup when you wake up."

Su Ke Xin propped herself up with one hand. Her right hand was injured, and she tried to use her left hand to take the bowl of chicken soup, but it looked clumsy. Gu Chi noticed this and frowned slightly, taking the spoon from her hand, "Let me do it."

He lifted a spoonful of chicken soup and blew on it lightly before offering it to Su Kexin's lips.

Su Keixin was stunned.

Is Gu Zhi feeding her by hand

She never expected to be treated like this, but she still opened her mouth and obediently drank it down.

Sipping her soup, she couldn't help but glance at Gu Chi across from her. She felt a twinge of nervousness.

Gu Chi always had such an extremely pale expression, inscrutable and unreadable. It made her unable to tell if he was still angry.

Su Keqin was just thinking about whether she should bring up the injury again, when she heard Gu Chi speak faintly, "Is there anything you want to say"

Su Ke Xin was taken aback for a moment, letting out a wry smile.

As expected, in front of someone like Gu Chi, she couldn't hide anything at all.on on this matter"Hmph, utter nonsense. The Shengtian Group is China's number one enterprise. The consequences of bankruptcy are self-evident, so we will all prepare some special measures in advance t...
