Chapter 738: Hatred Has Blinded His Heart
Su Qianxun talked briefly to Gu Mian and hurried to the ward with Long Sijue. She gazed at the pale man lying on the hospital bed. Her heart ached so much that she felt as though she was suffocating.
…..
Another half an hour pa.s.sed and the nurses wheeled Tang Zui out of the operating room. When Gu Mian stood up, she felt only her head spinning. She stood still for a while and walked over. Due to the fact that all Tang Zui’s wounds were on his back, he had to lie on his stomach.
It was the first time Gu Mian saw him so frail. His eyes were shut tight, and he was in a slumber, like a child.
…
After she returned to the ward, Su Qianxun stayed by Long Sijue’s side. She held his hand tightly, praying that he would wake up sooner.
Si Mancheng stopped the news about Long Sijue and Tang Zui from being released to the public, so their families had not known that they were injured. But he knew that by tomorrow, The Long family and Tang family would eventually receive the news.
Zi Fan did not leave. She stayed in the ward as Long Sijue’s doctor. After Si Mancheng checked on Long Sijue, he had to head to Tang Zui’s ward to check on him.
Zi Fan really wanted to scold Su Qianxun and chased her away, but Ye Gu was standing in the ward with his arm crossed. In his presence, Zi Fan did not dare to do anything to Su Qianxun.
Zi Fan thought that Su Qianxun was the sole reason Long Sijue was injured . Therefore she had no right to stay here!
She knew clearly that Long Sijue would only regain consciousness by tomorrow morning. It would not hurt to let this little b*tch stay here for one night.
…
Gu Mian, too, was sitting by Tang Zui’s bed and gazing at him in a daze. When Si Mancheng entered the room, she immediately got up and stepped aside.
“Just sit back down. There’s no one around Tang Zui for him to rely on. I would be relieved if you’re the one looking after him,” Si Mancheng said.
Gu Mian knew that Tang Zui and his family had a very bad relations.h.i.+p. She gazed at his pale side profile and said softly, “I… It’s my responsibility to take care of him.”
Seeing her like that, Si Mancheng sighed helplessly and said, “Tang Zui might seem like he hates you, but deep down, it really isn’t the case. Hatred has blinded his heart… what kind of person will sell his a.s.sets to pay for your older brother’s debt if he hates you so much?”
Hearing what he said, Gu Mian raised her head to look at him abruptly. “What… what did you just say?”
“For that five billion RMB, he had sold most of his a.s.sets… I have other matters to handle. Please keep him company,” Si Mancheng said, before turning away and leaving the ward.
Gu Mian stood still in a daze. She genuinely did not expect that in order to pay for her family’s debt, he would… sell his a.s.sets.
She slowly turned her head. Her gaze fell on Tang Zui’s face. Despite the painkiller, he seemed like he was still in agony. As it seemed, he was going through tremendous pain.
Gu Mian felt extremely confused. She really wanted to ask him why he was willing to sacrifice everything for her. Si Mancheng said that hatred had blinded his heart. ‘What does he mean by “hatred”?’
At that moment, she did not have the courage to keep asking.
Gu Mian could not help but lift a hand. Her fingers touched the man’s face slowly and traced the contours of his face gently. The pain in her chest kept growing.
…
The next day morning, Zi Fan, who pretended that she was looking at her phone, sent out a text message.
Soon enough, Lan Qingcheng rushed to the ward. When she saw Su Qianxun, she sneered, “Su Qianxun, you troublemaker. Haven’t you brought enough trouble to Jue? It happened once and now again! Do you really want him to die for you? Do you enjoy seeing him like this?”
