Chapter 606 Took Every Bush for a Bugbear
After checking Gu Changle over, Tan Yi handed the electrocardiogram to Shao Tianze.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Shao. Miss Changle is in good health.”
Shao Tianze was a physician and an expert in this field. Thus he could tell how Gu Changle was doing by reading the checklist and the electrocardiogram.
Shao Tianze rubbed his brows with his hands while reading the checklist and the electrocardiogram. It seemed that he got a headache, “Changle has been unstable and moody.”
“Frequently using sedatives is just a palliative, not a cure. You’d better come to pacify Miss Gu often.”
Hearing Tan Yi’s words, Shao Tianze nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Shao Tianze returned, Gu Changle pounced on him, exclaiming, “Tianze!”
Shao Tianze took her in his arms, stroking her hair and comforting, “There, there. Don’t be afraid. I’m here. No one can hurt you!”
“Do you know? On that day, the man with a knife wanted to disfigure me. He said he would disfigure me…”
Gu Changle couldn’t stop trembling. Shao Tianze could feel that Gu Changle was greatly shocked this time.
“You were scared, right?”
Hearing that, Gu Changle nodded repeatedly.
Shao Tianze pecked her on the forehead and sighed, “You had never been scared like this before. Even Song Yunjia’s death did not scare you.”
Gu Changle was a bit stunned on hearing Shao Tianze’s words. She herself even felt a bit befuddled.
Shao Tianze was right. In the past, neither Song Yunjia’s nor Gu Changge’s corpses could shock her, let alone make her feel scared.
But now, Gu Changle was afraid of everything.
And her heart was no longer as strong as before.
She was so scared.
“It’s different…” Gu Changle nestled against Shao Tianze’s chest, saying, “It’s not the same at all. Now I’ve got no enemies except death. I don’t want to die…”
Shao Tianze nodded, replying, “I understand.”
He understood what Gu Changle was afraid of now. Gu Changle’s former enemies were Gu Changge and Song Yunjia. After eradicating them one by one, Gu Changle expected to live a happy life.
However, it wasn’t long before the shadow of death befell Gu Changle again and hung over her.
Gu Changle didn’t want to die. She wanted to be alive and live forever.
However, dangers came one after another.
First, she might suffer from heart failure at any second, and she could not find a suitable heart to replace the heart in her chest.
And then someone attempted to kill her.
Each of these was enough to make her fall apart bit by bit.
Moreover, she gradually became not as fearless as before.
Shao Tianze held Gu Changle in his arms, felt her s.h.i.+vering, and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid, Changle. I’ll protect you, and no one can hurt you. Trust me.”
Hearing Shao Tianze’s words, Gu Changle nodded. Just at that moment, there came two taps at the door.
Hearing the taps on the door, Gu Changle immediately leaned closer to Shao Tianze.
Seeing Gu Changle who nestled against him, Shao Tianze sighed helplessly and then turned to look at the door, saying, “Come in.”
Hearing that the person inside the room allowed her to enter, the a.s.sistant opened the door.
Then he walked inside.
Seeing that it was his a.s.sistant, Shao Tianze asked, “What’s the matter?”
The a.s.sistant walked up to Shao Tianze and whispered something to his ear.
Gu Changle looked up in Shao Tianze’s arms and frowned at the person who was whispering to Shao Tianze.
When the a.s.sistant finished his words, Shao Tianze asked, “Are these all true?”
“Yes. Absolutely.”
“Okay.” Shao Tianze replied. Then he instructed, “Wait for me outside.”
Hearing Shao Tianze’s words, the a.s.sistant turned around and left.
When the a.s.sistant left, Gu Changle asked Shao Tianze, “What is it?”
“A message from New Yerk. The missing flight has not been found yet, and the airline is now arranging compensation with the victims’ families. Now we can say that Chu Mochen won’t be able to return.”
Even though Gu Changle was scared to death by the man who attempted to kill her, she broke into a smile on hearing the news, asking, “Is it true?”
If it were true, Song Yunxuan would never be able to get Chu Mochen’s help anymore.
And Song Yunxuan would no longer be a threat to the Shao enterprise.
Shao Tianze nodded, replying, “Yes.”
Gu Changle snorted with laughter, “That’s great!”
In this way, the Shao enterprise would not be at risk anymore.
Seeing the smile on Gu Changle’s face, Shao Tianze remained silent for a moment.
Gu Changle seemed to think of something. She asked Shao Tianze, “So who sent the man that tried to disfigure me?”
Hearing Gu Changle’s question, Shao Tianze lowered his eyes, replying, “No news about it yet.”
Gu Changle frowned, replying, “The person won’t give up until he kills me. I don’t want to stay in such a dangerous place. I want to go home.”
Shao Tianze frowned, replying, “But you are not healthy enough to go home.”
Gu Changle threw a tantrum, “I really don’t want to stay in the hospital anymore. Neither of the doctors nor the nurses here can protect me. I may die here at any second. I don’t want to die like this.”
Seeing that Shao Tianze remained unmoved, Gu Changle continued, “You still haven’t found out who is the prime mover, have you? So how can you protect me?”
Shao Tianze pressed his lips, remaining silent.
He still didn’t want to agree.
Not knowing what to do, Gu Changle blinked her eyes, looked at Shao Tianze, and wept, asking, “No matter what I say, you won’t believe me, right?”
Gu Changle looked affectionately at Shao Tianze.
However, Shao Tianze didn’t utter a single word.
Hate welled up inside Gu Changle, but there was nothing else she could do.
She wanted Shao Tianze to take her home.
But Shao Tianze did not allow Gu Changle to go home no matter what she said as if he had been bewitched.
Gu Changle was so annoyed.
…
The flight had been missing for three days. After the night fell, Song Yunxuan looked down at the neon lights under tall buildings.
Meanwhile, she drank up the wine in her gla.s.s.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan had been drinking, Mei Qi advised, “Manager Song, you’ve drunk too much.”
“It’s been three days, but we still haven’t got any news. He is dead. Right? Mei Qi?”
Song Yunxuan asked him.
Mei Qi pressed his lips, replying, “There could still be miracles.”
Hearing the word miracle, Song Yunxuan couldn’t help chuckling, “How can there be so many miracles in this world?”
Song Yunxuan never believed in miracles because she thought that such miracles were deceptive.
Sensing that Song Yunxuan was depressed, Mei Qi said, “There are miracles in the world. Don’t you believe in miracles, Manager Song?”
As for Mei Qi, he thought that Song Yunxuan herself was a miracle.
It was just that Song Yunxuan didn’t think of herself now.
Song Yunxuan sat on the sofa, tilted her head, and murmured, “All the miracles in the world are deceptive.”
“Aren’t you a living example of a miracle, Manager Song?”
Hearing Mei Qi’s words, Song Yunxuan frowned and immediately turned to look at Mei Qi.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan looked at him, Mei Qi continued, “You did not grow up in Yuncheng, but in a small town. But since you came here, you’ve made great achievements step by step, which is a miracle to many people.”
Hearing Mei Qi’s words, Song Yunxuan lowered her eyes and nodded, replying, “Yeah, it does seem like a miracle.”
However, the thing that she could make achievements step by step was not a miracle. Instead, she did it in her own right.
Gu Changge was capable of rising to the top from scratch.
But if given some thought, Song Yunxuan could be considered a miracle.
Because the body also contained Gu Changge’s soul.
Song Yunxuan put the goblet on the tea table and calmed down.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan calmed down, Mei Qi remained silent for such a while.
After another long stretch of time, Song Yunxuan suddenly called him, “Mei Qi.”
Mei Qi replied, “Yes, Manager Song?”
“Book a plane ticket for me.”
Mei Qi frowned, asking, “A plane ticket?”
“Yes, I want to return.”
Song Yunxuan looked up at Mei Qi with her bright eyes. It seemed that she had made clear of everything.
“Isn’t it inappropriate for you to return now?” Mei Qi told Song Yunxuan what was in his mind, “Now Childe Chu is still missing, and Mr. and Mrs. Chu are in deep sadness now. If you return instead of waiting here, won’t it make others feel that you are too heartless?”
“I don’t give a d*mn about it. Death is death. Even if I’m wrapped in sadness and stand still, nothing will change.”
“But…”
Mei Qi still wanted to say something.
But Song Yunxuan suddenly asked Mei Qi, “If I burst into tears now, will Chu Mochen hear it? Will Mr. and Mrs. Chu know that I’m very concerned about Chu Mochen’s missing?”
“No.”
Mei Qi answered crisply.
Song Yunxuan nodded, replying, “In that case, why bother to do such meaningless things?”
Words failed Mei Qi after he heard Song Yunxuan’s words.
Song Yunxuan got up and walked to the large French windows, staring at the beautiful night scene of New Yerk. Then she said, “He is gone. No matter how bitterly I cry, it’s just a show. I’m tired of doing such things. All I want to do is moving forward. Chu Mochen… is waiting for me in the front.”
Chu Mochen was dead.
And when Song Yunxuan achieved her goal, she would follow Chu Mochen to that world.
Song Yunxuan had been staying in New Yerk for three days, and the news that Chu Mochen went missing had already spread through Yuncheng.
The Shao Family also got the news, which made them relieved. They felt that the crisis of the Shao enterprise was over for now.
However, Song Yunxuan would return to warn Shao Tianze.
She would warn him that the crisis of the Shao enterprise was not over.
Song Yunxuan had not given up.
