Chapter 750: Her Heart was Somewhere Else

Gu Mian called the doctor over. The doctor started redressing Tang Zui’s wounds. Gu Mian looked at them and felt pain on his behalf. After her encounter with Tang Zui’s father this time, she finally knew what ‘heartlessness’ truly meant. She gazed at Tang Zui’s face. His eyes were shut tight as he endured the pain on his back. She felt even more upset.

…

After Lu Shuzhen arrived home, she immediately went to her son’s room. She sat down and said, “Little Ming, from now on, you better stay away from that girl Gu Mian. You didn’t see how fiercely she had defended Tang Zui. I guess she had already fallen in love with him.”

Hearing what his mother had just said, he snapped the ruler in his hand into half. He refused to accept that. “Impossible! Mian Mian will never fall in love with Tang Zui!”

“My silly son. How is that impossible? You didn’t see how she behaved today. She scolded your father because of Tang Zui. What I mean is… you should stay away from her. I’ll introduce some girl from a good family, the real deal, okay?” The cut on Lu Shuzhen’s leg was aching slightly. After she finished saying that, she got up and left right away.

Tang Zui froze for a moment. He suddenly turned and swiped all the things on the table onto the floor. ‘No, it’s impossible! Gu Mian and I are childhood sweethearts. She could not fall in love with another man so quickly!’

It must be due to the fact that Gu Mian had owed Tang Zui money. Therefore she had to defend him!

He wanted to go talk to her and make sure that she was still in love with her. It would be devastating if Gu Mian refused to be with him even after he had gotten the money.

…

A week passed in a blink of an eye.

It was because Long Sijue actively listened to doctors’ advice and had been cooperative with the recovery procedure, most of his wounds had healed.

For the past seven days, Long Xiluo came to see him a few times. Lan Qingcheng, too, came to visit twice or thrice. Su Qianxun, however, never showed up once.

Every day, Si Mancheng and Ye Gu looked at the cold look on Long Sijue’s face. He looked like an ice sculpture from afar. It was a truly horrific sight.

Si Mancheng called Su Qianxun on the phone twice. She never answered. He seriously did not understand what else she could be doing at this time. She did not come to visit Long Sijue this whole week, not even once.

Today, after the IV therapy, Long Sijue suddenly opened his eyes. He pulled out the needle himself and told everyone to leave the ward first.

Five minutes later, he changed into his clothes and left the hospital.

…

For the past week, Su Qianxun had been staying home. Occasionally, she helped Aunt Zhang prepare meals and spent most of her time keeping her younger brother company.

However, as time passed, she started zoning out every now and then.

She cut her hand when she was chopping vegetables and burned her hand when she was cooking. She suffered from minor injuries almost every time she prepared a meal.

Aunt Zhang could tell that, even though she was right there at home, but her heart was somewhere else.

“Young mistress, if you have something to attend to, go ahead. I can take care of everything here. Don’t you worry.” Aunt Zhang refused to let her into the kitchen no matter what.

“It’s nothing… Aunt Zhang, did you just say there’s no more onion? I’m going to buy some.” Su Qianxun put on a jacket, picked her purse and handphone before heading out.

When she was going downstairs, she kept looking at her phone. Distracted, she nearly fell down the stairs.

On her way home from the market with the onions she bought, Su Qianxun was walking down the street numbly. She felt so upset that the sadness was suffocating. She wanted so badly to check on Long Sijue at the hospital, but she could not go…

She did not want his injuries to worsen just because he wanted to have s*x with her. She knew if she was around, he could not lie still and rest.

Therefore, even though she was worried sick and everyone around them blamed her for not being there, she could not go back to the hospital.

When Su Qianxun was heading home, a black car suddenly stopped next to her. Two men in black opened the car door, grabbed her and dragged her into the car.

“Let go of me. Who are you? Let go of me. Help!” Su Qianxun immediately screamed. The onions in her hands dropped onto the ground. Those men shoved her into the car.
