Perhaps it was Jiang Xu who had changed. He was no longer that pure-hearted youth, or perhaps Cheng Lu had no eyes and did not know Jiang Xu’s true face. Cheng Lu doesn’t want to pursue this matter. She gives up the chance to go to university and marries this man, which proves how short-sighted she is. She can’t blame anyone at all.

“Cheng Lu, which ward is Cheng Lu in?” Jiang Xu’s voice could be heard from afar, and the thought of seeing him made Cheng Lu sick to the point of her stomach.

“Sir, this is the ward. Please keep quiet.” The nurse patiently advised. Soon, Jiang Xu found Cheng Lu’s ward.

It’s been two days since we last saw each other. I really miss you so much. A few days ago, Jiang Xu was infatuated with gambling, and his family had completely lost all their money. Now, who knew if he had ulterior motives in running to the hospital in a hurry?

Indeed.

“Cheng Lu, why are you crippled? Who hit you like this?”

“Are you mute? Are you speaking?”

“Cheng Lu, don’t think that I don’t dare to do anything to you in the hospital!”

Jiang Xu’s temper exploded just like that. Gu Yin, who was standing on the balcony, walked over and explained, “Ms. Cheng Lu’s vocal cords were damaged after the car accident. I’m sorry, it was all because of me that she lay here and suffered.” Gu Yin couldn’t see the man in front of him shouting at Cheng Lu, but this was someone else’s household matter. He didn’t know how to deal with it, so he thought about it and apologized to the gentleman in front of him.

“You’re the one who hit my wife like this. I must beat you into a meat patty, but not today! Shouldn’t we discuss the compensation now?”

Cheng Lu sees yellow leaves falling from the hospital window. She suddenly feels empty. Sure enough, this man is here to seek compensation. At this moment, she feels glad that she is not dead. Otherwise, she will get a huge sum of compensation for this man’s wife if he dies? It really made her unable to breathe. Even if she died, she wouldn’t be able to die in peace.

“Judging from your clothes, you shouldn’t be an ordinary person. Hmph, I don’t want too much from you, that’s all.” Jiang Xu stretched out two fingers.

“Twenty thousand?”

“Twenty thousand? Are you going to send a beggar? If it’s so cheap to hit someone, I’ll go out and hit someone another day if I’m unhappy.” Jiang Xu cleared his throat. Jiang Xu wanted to say something else, but Gu Yin took out a bank card from his pocket and maintained a smiling expression. “200,000 yuan. That’s not too much, right? My beautiful wife will suffer so much …” Gu Yin took out a bank card from his pocket and kept a smile on his face. “Don’t laugh at me for playing a joke just now. This card contains 300,000 yuan in cash as an apology to your wife. The password is six.” This money was what Gu Yin had to pay. He didn’t lack this money, but compared to this, he was wronged by the girl who was lying on the bed without any reason.

“You’re a rich second generation kid, aren’t you? So rich? Haha, we can still make friends when sister-in-law recovers in the future.” After Jiang Xu achieved his goal, he lit up the bank card in his hand to Cheng Lu, who was lying on the bed.

“I’ll come and see you tomorrow. I’ll find you an escort to take care of you later. I have something to do now, so I’ll leave first.” Jiang Xu took the bank card and left without turning back, leaving behind a stunned Gu Yin.

“Your husband seems” Gu Yin hesitated to say something. Cheng Lu’s nose and tears were in a sorry state. Gu Yin walked forward and carefully wiped her clean.

She wrote in his hand: Is there a pen?

“Yes.” He took out a pen and a business notebook from his business bag and handed it to her.

‘You’re giving too much money,’ she wrote.

You’re not to blame for the accident. I was the one who ran amok on the road.

Why not escape?

I wish I was dead…

Gu Yin smiled. He looked at Cheng Lu’s third sentence and added, Are you an idiot? I’m going to jail if I escape.

Gu Yin did not continue to ask. Soon, he received a phone call from the company and had to leave the hospital early.

“I’ve already ordered someone to prepare dinner for you. I’ll come and see you after I finish my meeting.” Gu Yin rarely smiles, but he involuntarily raises the corner of his mouth towards Cheng Lu. Perhaps this woman looks very pitiful.

Watching Gu Yin leave, Cheng Lu pulls out a needle from her hand. She hates hospitals. She would rather die than stay here.

The hospital would always bring up unpleasant memories of her grandparents who had passed away and her parents who had passed away unexpectedly. These memories were so painful that she missed them and dreamed of them in the dead of night. What she was afraid of was that everyone was calling her a nemesis.

Cheng Lu fainted again.

“I’m not a nemesis, I’m not!” As she spoke, her old dream reappeared, and the people beside her gently patted her.

“Why are you so disobedient? I only left for a while and you pulled out the needle on your own. Do you really want to die?”

Cheng Lu nods.

She wants to die. I really want to die.

“We definitely can’t do this again next time. If it weren’t for the nurse realizing it in time, I don’t know what the consequences would be.” Hearing the phone call from the hospital about Cheng Lu’s situation, Gu Yin put down the meeting in his hand and rushed to the hospital without saying a word. This little girl was really worrying.

Cheng Lu stretches out a hand and keeps hammering his chest. Why does this unfamiliar man in front of her speak so gently? Why doesn’t he only yell at her like Jiang Xu? Why, why?

Jiang Xu held her hand tightly. He didn’t know what was going on with him. Even though he knew that the woman in front of him was already a human wife, he would still treat her as a little girl who wasn’t familiar with the world.

“Ah, open your mouth and eat an orange.” Gu Yin put away the harshness in the company and peeled the oranges into her mouth like he treated his little girlfriend. Occasionally, he put them around her mouth and stuffed them back into his own mouth.

If only she hadn’t been married…

With this thought in mind, Gu Yin hurriedly interrupted his thoughts. This was just what he should do. He would treat anyone who was injured by him like this.

Cheng Lu always cries capriciously, but her husband says that he will come tomorrow, but he drags on until a week later.

The person he wanted to see was Gu Yin.

“Brother, do you still have money?”

“I gave you everything I should have given you. Even if it was the Emperor’s father, I wouldn’t be able to pay that much.” As soon as Gu Yin heard of Qian, he directly refused. He was a person with principles, and he knew what to do and what not to do.

“That’s not what I meant. Even if you’re short of money recently, just lend me some money and I’ll pay you back. You can rest assured of that.” Jiang Xu’s luck had been very bad lately. He had been gambling for several days in a row, but he had always lost. The 300,000 yuan was quickly wasted.

“Sorry, I have no obligation.” Gu Yin really wanted to smash his fist on this person’s face, but looking at the woman opposite him, he finally stopped. He felt that since they were husband and wife, he should leave some face in front of his wife.

After a final struggle, Jiang Xu was unable to get any money from him, but sadly, his gaze did not even fall on Cheng Lu.

“I really admire you for living with such a person for so long. Why don’t you get a divorce?”

Gu Yin originally didn’t want to ask too much about family affairs, but he couldn’t bear to watch. This was the first time he had seen such a scumbag man. At least in his social class, he seemed to pay great attention to family harmony. Although there were some discordant factors, he wouldn’t directly move to the front of the stage like this.

Cheng Lu doesn’t answer this question. She has thought a lot these days and has given up on the idea of committing suicide. Even if she commits suicide, he won’t shed a single tear for her, or even take advantage of her in vain.

These days, she was the one who accompanied Jiang Xu to eat porridge and pickled vegetables. She was the one who lived in the basement less than twenty square meters away. She was the one who didn’t want to buy clothes and shoes for him. No matter what, she had to consider what would happen to her. When would she be able to live like a normal woman?

She was only 20 years old, and she was so young that she was buried in the hands of a scumbag for no reason? She was unwilling!

“So, don’t ever think about committing suicide again. Suicide is the stupidest solution in the world.” Gu Yin helped her peel an orange and stuffed it into her mouth. “Can’t you make a sound now? I asked the doctor just now. He said it should be about time.”

Cheng Lu eats the orange, frowns and squeezes out a word in a low voice, “Acid.”

“You can talk but you didn’t tell me.” Gu Yin rolled his eyes at her, “But your voice is really pleasant to hear.”

“If you hadn’t reminded me, I would have probably forgotten that I was a creature that could talk.” Cheng Lu laughs awkwardly. This is the first time in so many days that Gu Yin has seen her laugh. She laughs sweetly, and there are two shallow dimples on her cheeks.

“You have to laugh like this often in the future, you know? I suddenly thought of my sister. If she was still alive, she would probably be your age.”

Gu Yin rarely talks about his own affairs to others, but he doesn’t seem to be so reserved when facing Cheng Lu. “When I was young, my family was poor. My sister was sick and didn’t have the money to perform an operation and finally died. This is probably the greatest pain in my life. Although I don’t need money to spend now, I can always think of my dead sister.”

Cheng Lu looks at Gu Yin’s tightened eyebrows and suddenly feels unusually depressed. She can’t understand the feeling of her loved ones passing away.

“Yeah, I always think of my family.”

Had the Heavenly Kingdom found their own happiness?

After about a month, Cheng Lu’s calf and ribs have recovered by half. Even the doctor said that her body recovered exceptionally quickly.

“Thank you, Mr. Gu, for nourishing this or that every day. It’s so good for Cheng Lu that I feel like lying in bed too.” The nurse teased.

Recently, it was Gu Yin who had been taking care of her. It had been a long time since her husband, who had died in name, stepped into this ward. Forget about it, Cheng Lu hopes that she will never see him again for the rest of her life.

When Dong Mei heard that Cheng Lu was sick, she was stunned to see her from afar in Xinjiang. Dong Mei was a friend she had known since childhood in the orphanage and was currently studying in Xinjiang.

Dong Mei called Cheng Lu and her teeth trembled from the cold. “It’s getting colder and colder now. Cheng Lu, don’t forget to wear a pair of pants. Last year, your knees were frozen and rotten. It was the antifreeze paste I ordered for you from the Internet.” Dong Mei studied art in Xinjiang. She remembered the days in the orphanage. One liked to draw and the other liked to sing.

“Dong Mei, why do you want to go to Xinjiang University? It’s so far away that you can’t even buy anything online.” I remember that when Dong Mei was about to go to university, Cheng Lu said so.

Cheng Lu’s face was filled with the shyness of a young girl. “I, ah, met a netizen online in Xinjiang. I can naturally see him when I go to Xinjiang University.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, if it was me, I would definitely go to Beijing to attend university in Shanghai. However, this dream probably won’t come true.”
