How could Ji Yuanyuan not know?
Every time Qin Mucheng looked at her, his gaze was different from others.
“And then?” Ji Yuanyuan nodded.
“Then, I pestered him for a long time before he finally told me. It turns out that his parents ‘deaths were related to my father. He loved me, but whenever he saw me, he would think of his deceased parents. He couldn’t be with his enemy’s daughter. Not taking revenge on my father was already his bottom line. After knowing this reason, I let go. I can’t let him suffer the condemnation of his conscience every day for my own sake, right?”
Looking at Gu Zhiyan’s expression, Ji Yuanyuan held her hand with some heartache. “Is it difficult to endure?”
The two of them clearly liked each other, but they had no choice but to separate due to reality.
“Actually, you might not believe it. I didn’t feel too bad because I knew that he loved me.” Gu Zhiyan’s expression seemed to be smiling, but it also seemed like she was about to cry.
“When we broke up, he told me that he would never love another woman more than me. Even though I said that I wanted him to forget about me, I couldn’t be happier. Yuanyuan, tell me, am I selfish?”
“How could that be?” Ji Yuanyuan shook her head. “You didn’t do anything to hurt anyone. You’re just secretly happy. What’s so selfish about that?”
“Yes, I didn’t do anything to hurt anyone. No matter how happy I was, I didn’t pester Lin Zhi after we broke up. It was hard at first, but I quickly adjusted. I can’t give up on my dad, so I can only give up on Lin Zhi. I feel much better thinking about it. After that, I gradually stopped thinking about him. It only took me two years to forget him.”
Gu Zhiyan said this with a smile, but Ji Yuanyuan’s tears fell.
She quickly turned her face away and wiped the tears off her face.
“Later, I fell in love, got married, was betrayed, and had a heart attack… It wasn’t until I was admitted to the hospital that I accidentally discovered that the person living next door to me was Lin Zhi that I realized that I hadn’t forgotten at all. I just hid him in the deepest part of my heart and lied to myself that I had forgotten him. I lied too much that I even believed it.”
How did you find out that Lin Zhi was next door?” Ji Yuanyuan asked.
“Lin Zhi’s secretary was already by his side when we were dating. I guessed it when I saw his secretary.”
So it was like this.
Ji Yuanyuan held Gu Zhiyan’s hand, feeling conflicted.
Should she tell Gu Zhiyan the real reason for Lin Zhi’s car accident?
It seemed that Gu Zhiyan didn’t know anything.
Lin Zhi was still in love with Gu Zhiyan, and it was a deep love.
For Gu Zhiyan, he would rather die.
If she had told Gu Zhiyan the truth, Gu Zhiyan could have gone to the hospital to accompany Lin Zhi. Perhaps Lin Zhi would wake up.
The two of them loved each other. If Lin Zhi could wake up, the two of them might be able to reconcile.
“Zhiyan…” After hesitating for a while, Ji Yuanyuan still felt like saying it.
The two of them clearly still loved each other, but now things had reached a stalemate.
She was willing to be the catalyst.
“Do you know how Lin Zhi got injured?”
“I don’t know.” Gu Zhiyan shook her head.
“Lin Zhi was in a car accident, a severe car accident. He crashed into the mountain on his own. At the last moment, he didn’t step on the brakes.” When Ji Yuanyuan spoke, her eyes were fixed on Gu Zhiyan’s face.
“He wants to commit suicide?” Gu Zhiyan’s eyes widened. “Why?”
Ji Yuanyuan took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. “Maybe it’s like you said. Lin Zhi also feels that it’s better to sleep forever than to wake up in pain. But most importantly, Lin Zhi’s heart is a match for you.”
Gu Zhiyan’s entire body froze. She looked at Ji Yuanyuan in disbelief.
A few seconds later, her lips trembled. “You mean…He… He…”
Gu Zhiyan couldn’t say a complete sentence even though she had been talking for a long time.
“I happened to be beside him when he was sent to the hospital. I heard Lin Zhi tell his a.s.sistant that he wants to give his heart to you.”
Gu Zhiyan’s breathing became a little hurried.
“At the beginning, I was also wondering if Lin Zhi was talking nonsense when he was unconscious. That was until I saw Lin Zhi’s matching information.”
Gu Zhiyan was stunned for a few seconds. Suddenly, she lifted the blanket on her body and was about to get out of bed. “I want to go to the hospital. I want to find him.”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly held Gu Zhiyan’s arm. “We can go to the hospital, but…”
“You can’t go to the hospital.” Gu Wenbin pushed the door open and entered before Ji Yuanyuan could finish speaking.
Gu Zhiyan looked at Gu Wenbin sadly. “Dad, I have to go to the hospital. I have to go to the hospital to see Lin Zhi. Just let me go. I’ll be fine.”
“What did you say to Zhiyan?” Gu Wenbin looked at Ji Yuanyuan angrily. “She’s still very weak and can’t go out casually. Don’t you know that?”
Gu Zhiyan bit her lip. “Dad, it’s been more than a month since my surgery. Why can’t I go out? Just let me out. Do you know that Lin Zhi got into a car accident because of me? This is what I owe him. I have to return it to him.”
When Gu Wenbin heard this, he instantly blurted out, “You don’t owe him anything. The reason why you’ve become like this is all because of him.”
After Gu Wenbin finished speaking, he felt that he had misspoken, and the expression on his face was a little annoyed.
Gu Zhiyan was stunned. She gradually calmed down. “What do you mean? What thanks to him?”
Ji Yuanyuan was caught in the middle and did not know if he should stop Gu Wenbin from speaking.
Gu Zhiyan didn’t understand what Gu Wenbin meant, but she did.
Gu Zhiyan saw that Gu Wenbin did not speak, so she said, “If you don’t want to tell me, I’ll go and find Lin Zhi now. When he wakes up, I’ll ask him. If he doesn’t wake up, I’ll keep him company in the hospital.”
Gu Zhiyan’s physical fitness had indeed improved a lot more than a month after the operation.
She said so many words in a sonorous and forceful manner, but her expression remained unchanged.
“Do you know that your encounter with Cao Xiangrong was not a coincidence?” Seeing that Gu Zhiyan had made up her mind, Gu Wenbin could only say this helplessly.
“What do you mean?” Gu Zhiyan frowned. “What do you mean by not a coincidence?”
Gu Wenbin sighed. “It was Lin Zhi who found out about your whereabouts and deliberately brought Cao Xiangrong to meet you. He clearly knew what a b.a.s.t.a.r.d Cao Xiangrong was, but he still personally created your encounter and watched you walk into the hall of marriage. What do you think he was thinking?”
After Gu Wenbin finished speaking, Gu Zhiyan’s expression froze.
Looking at Gu Zhiyan’s expression, Gu Wenbin regretted saying these words.
But now that he had said it, he could not take it back..
