"Are you just waking up now? The time I entered your room yesterday was 11:42 a.m., and now it's 8:52 a.m., twenty-one hours and ten minutes have passed. In other words, you Haven’t eaten for at least twenty-one hours and ten minutes.”
Chu Lingjue said when he saw Gu Xiwan.
"..." Gu Xiwan was speechless.
Because she saw that Chu Lingjue's face was pale, his eyes that were originally as bright as ice crystals were as red as lanterns because they were full of bloodshot eyes, and the dark circles under his eyes were as heavy as jets of ink!
This originally handsome man, who would make people suspect that he was a god descended to earth whenever he saw his face, now actually looks a bit scary because of his extreme haggardness...
Gu Xiwan had never seen Chu Lingjue so haggard.
But why is he so haggard?
Could it be that after she kicked him away yesterday, he never left but just sat outside the door?
"Let's go, I'll take you to dinner."
Chu Lingjue's voice sounded again.
Before Gu Xiwan could recover, Chu Lingjue had already wrapped his right arm around her slender waist and pulled her into his arms.
Maybe it was because Chu Lingjue was always used to holding her in his arms like this, and she was already used to Chu Lingjue's arms and embrace, right? When Chu Lingjue first took her into his arms, she didn't feel anything was wrong.
It wasn't until Chu Lingjue took her two steps forward that she woke up from a dream.
She stopped in a hurry and said coldly,
"Mr. Chu, please respect yourself."
Chu Lingjue's arms trembled visibly when he heard the cold and distant title of "Mr. Chu".
At this time, Gu Xiwan had taken the opportunity to break free from his arms.
At this moment, Gu Xiwan clearly saw a hint of hurt in Chu Lingjue's scarlet eyes, but she remained unmoved, and her eyes turned colder when she looked at Chu Lingjue.
The voice became colder and colder,
"Although we are not officially divorced yet, I have decided that I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore."
Chu Lingjue's lips were as perfect as petals and trembled slightly.
Although his eyes were as red as bloodthirsty, looking at Gu Xiwan for a moment, his eyes were still so gentle and doting,
"Good boy, we have been through so many storms together, why don't we come here? I told you before that we are only widowed, not divorced, so stop making trouble."
With that said, he came to pick up Gu Xiwan again.
In the past, Gu Xiwan only knew that Chu Lingxiao was extremely stubborn in love.
She had thought that Chu Lingjue, who was decisive in his actions, would be equally decisive in love. She never expected that Chu Lingjue would be just as stubborn in love.
She still doesn't know that this is exactly how Chu Lingjue cares about her——
No matter how dignified a man is, he will put down his dignity and stalk a woman who loves him deeply.
Seeing Chu Lingjue attacking her again, all Gu Xiwan could do was use a silver needle to deal with him.
However, Gu Xiwan opened her handbag and just caught a silver needle between her fingers when the cell phone in her handbag rang suddenly.
So, Gu Xiwan put down the silver needle, held the phone between her fingers, and took it out of her handbag.
Seeing that Gu Xiwan was about to answer the phone, Chu Lingjue stopped coming to greet Gu Xiwan and stood aside for the time being.
It was actually a call from "Cheng Guanjia".
After Gu Xiwan hesitated for a moment, she picked up.
"Wanwan, is that you?"
After the line was connected, what sounded in Gu Xiwan's ears was Zhou Shutong's voice.
Gu Xiwan was already disheartened, but the moment she heard Zhou Shutong's voice, there was still a warmth in her cold heart.
Gu Xiwan's mother had always been delirious, so after Gu Xiwan lost her child, although she saw her mother in the "Emperor's Residence", she did not mention it to her mother.
Because Gu Xiwan knew that even if she told her mother, her mother might not understand what she was saying at all, let alone give her any care.
But Zhou Shutong is different.
Since Gu Xiwan married Chu Lingjue, Zhou Shutong has been very kind to Gu Xiwan. Gu Xiwan also feels the maternal love from Zhou Shutong that has been absent in her life for a long time.
Zhou Shutong must have known about her current situation and called to comfort her...
Gu Xiwan calmed down and said softly,
"Mom, it's me, what can you do?"
"Wanwan, I was supposed to use my mobile phone to call you, but after receiving the call from Ling Xiao yesterday, Juejue left me and Yiyi and went to find you with my mobile phone, so I had to use Give me the butler’s cell phone to contact you.”
Gu Xiwan's eyes were filled with confusion.
No wonder Chu Lingjue had been using Zhou Shutong’s cell phone to call her yesterday. It turned out that he had been holding Zhou Shutong’s cell phone, but where had his own cell phone gone?
Also, Ling Xiao...
Why was Ling Xiao calling Chu Lingjue?
At this time, I heard Zhou Shutong continue,
"Wanwan, since Butler Cheng called him yesterday, he has turned off his phone. No one can contact him, and I don't know what he is thinking. I am calling you just to ask you, Jue Jue Are I with you now?"
Gu Xiwan nodded,
"Um."
"Thank God I finally found him!"
Zhou Shutong let out a long sigh of relief, and then said anxiously,
"Wanwan, please tell Juejue that since he left yesterday, Yiyi has not eaten a grain of rice or even a drop of water. Just before I called you, she wanted to commit suicide again. You let him come to the hospital to comfort Yiyi, otherwise , something is really going to happen to Yiyi!
In addition, you tell him that if Yiyi has a problem with him again, he will never recognize me as his mother again! "
Zhou Shutong over there had hung up the line long ago, but Gu Xiwan still maintained the posture of talking to Zhou Shutong, holding the phone with her right hand, shaking uncontrollably.
"Did mom call you? What's wrong?"
Chu Lingjue's magnetic voice sounded like a musical note to Gu Xiwan's right hand.
Only then did Gu Xiwan regain her consciousness. She buried the disappointment in her eyes without any trace, and raised the corners of her mouth proudly,
"Sheng Xinyi just committed suicide again. Your mother asked you to go back to the hospital to save her."
The moment the words fell, Gu Xiwan clearly saw a hint of worry in Chu Lingjue's eyebrows.
Ah.
A sneer came from Gu Xiwan's heart.
Her face was extremely haggard, but the corners of her mouth were raised higher, and she smiled so brightly and enchantingly... ironically,
"Your mother also said that if Sheng Xinyi dies, she will sever ties with you. In other words, if you don't go back now, you are likely to not only lose Sheng Xinyi forever, but also your mother."
"..." Chu Lingjue's eyes looked obviously strange.
He stared into Gu Xiwan's eyes for a moment. He was so reluctant to let go of Gu Xiwan. However, after a moment, he finally said,
"I will definitely come back to find you, wait for me!"
After saying that, he opened his long legs and hurriedly walked past Gu Xiwan.
Gu Xiwan had clearly given up on Chu Lingjue.
However, watching Chu Lingjue pass her by, she seemed to be transported back to the moment yesterday in the hospital yard when she watched Chu Lingjue turn a blind eye and walk in front of her in order to find Sheng Xinyi.
At the same time, she also thought of Zhou Shutong's neglect and neglect of Sheng Xinyi since she moved into "Emperor Residence".
Of course she knew that Zhou Shutong didn't mean to neglect or ignore her, but Zhou Shutong's thoughts were all on Sheng Xinyi and he had already ignored her...
Look!
At the beginning, what she missed so much was that Chu Lingjue even went to the extent of abusing Sheng Xinyi for her, and that Zhou Shutong treated her as his own daughter. Even if she had a conflict with Sheng Xinyi, Zhou Shutong would favor her just like Chu Lingjue...
In addition, her and Chu Lingjue's child has also left her...
Now, everything she cared about and valued was gone!
So, what else is there for her to miss in this family? !
