Throughout the entire process, Gu Qiwu merely sat on the bench. He seemed to be frozen right there as he did not move at all while he watched this scene before him.
After a while, the unconscious Doris was wheeled out of the operating theatre and sent to the intensive care ward. Meanwhile, that night was destined to be a sleepless night, especially for Gu Qiwu and the rest.
Qi Qiming only rushed over afterward. When he heard that Doris had a miscarriage, he felt a mix of emotions that he could not quite identify. There was a hint of endured anger in his gaze as he looked at Gu Qiwu.
He could not have guessed that Gu Qiwu would be so cruel towards Mu Zi!
The pitiful thing was that she had protected him till the day she died, and now it had even cost Elder Madam Mu’s life. There was also Mu Lingtian and Mu Lings.h.i.+…
Following Qi Qiming was Qi Lei who remained silent too. As the scenes from that day replayed in his mind, he had no doubt that this Gu Qiwu was Mu Lings.h.i.+’s father!
He always thought that Qi Qiming was the tras.h.i.+est father among them all, but he did not expect Gu Qiwu to compare to his own father. In fact, he was worse. It turns out that there were indeed more people like him. There was just no comparison before, and now he suddenly began to pity Lingtian and Mu Lings.h.i.+.
At least, his mother, w.a.n.g Qin, still loved him and would defend him. Right now, Qi Qiming did not seem to be doing much against him for reasons of guilt or whatever, yet what about Mu Lingtian and Mu Lings.h.i.+?
Before this, he really did not understand why Mu Yuchen had been so persistent and why he would not let go after Mu Lingtian’s betrayal, yet now, he seemed to finally understand a little bit more of how Mu Yuchen felt.
Being as calm as water with refined fierceness and meticulous thoughts allowed him to hold it all back only to explode today. It must have been for Mu Lings.h.i.+, for Mu Zi and Mu Lingtian.
Qi Lei could not help but feel envy. If he had such an older brother too, would he have suffered as much as he did right now?
They both had a layer between the bloodlines. Why was it that he could treat them like real siblings while his own elder brother would not even think of leaving him a way out at all even after he had backed down so much?
When he thought about this, Qi Lei suddenly turned to look at Qi Feng who remained silent too. His expression was indifferent and he did not show any emotions, yet there was a hint of mixed emotions between his brows. Gu Lingsha was still caring for Doris in the ward.
As if he could sense Qi Lei’s gaze, Qi Feng gathered his emotions and looked towards Qi Lei. When he saw that there was something in his eyes, his charming face flashed with a smile. “Thank you for your hard work today, Xiao Lei.”
Qi Lei scoffed in his heart, yet that devilish smile on his face became even more radiant. “As I should. Uncle Gu, CEO Qi, I’ll go handle the hospitalization procedures. I hope that Aunt Gu will recover soon!”
Then, before waiting for their replies, he turned towards the corridor while Yang Sheng followed quickly after him.
Upon seeing that, Qi Feng’s expression darkened. He turned to look at Qi Qiming, but he realized that Qi Qiming was watching Qi Lei walk further away with a gaze that seemed to show a hint of delight.
Gu Qiwu, who had kept quiet, finally spoke up softly, “All of you, go home first. Qi Feng, today’s an important day for you and Shasha. Don’t delay it because of this incident. You and Shasha go home first. It’s enough with me here.”
“Father…” Qi Feng finally called out a little worriedly.
“Go home, Ah Yong. Get Miss to come out.”
Gu Qiwu’s tone had a sternness that did not allow for objection, so Qi Feng felt like something was not right in his tone, but he could not put a finger on what it was.
…
Inside the ward, Doris was sleeping in a daze. Soon, it was the next day.
When the warm sunlight streamed in through the half-opened window, Doris felt how heavy her head was. She was uncomfortable as she slowly woke up and tried to open up her heavy eyelids. As the strong light entered, she could not help but lift a hand to shade her eyes. All of the scenes from last night suddenly flashed in her mind.
Her pale face suddenly flushed with panic and she subconsciously felt her belly!
It was no surprise that she could clearly feel that something was missing.
Stunned, she remembered that Gu Lingsha had come towards her and she had lost her footing and tripped down the stairs. Afterward, Mu Lings.h.i.+ seemed to have smiled and spoken about her pregnancy, and that it was a boy…
How did they find out?
If Gu Lingsha had heard it, then Gu Qiwu must have too!
She was already so careful. Apart from the one involved, no one else could have known about it, much less Gu Qiwu!
Right, Gu Qiwu!
When this name flashed in her mind, Doris’s deep blue eyes could not help but reveal a wave of panic. She immediately widened her eyes and propped herself up. When she tried to sit up, she silently examined the scene before her.
Immediately, she noticed the stern and scolding gaze that came from her bedside!
She quickly turned to look and saw a dark figure greeting her sight.
Bathed in a cold aura all over, a chill filled his grave expression and a sinister energy gathered in his deep eyes while he fixed his gaze on Doris. She could feel the coldness that came from him despite wrapping herself tightly with the blanket.
Doris subconsciously shrunk and her blue eyes seemed vigilant as she stared at Gu Qiwu. Neither husband nor wife spoke.
There was clearly air filled with gunpowder between the four eyes and the entire ward felt stifled.
In the end, it was Gu Qiwu who spoke up first, “You miscarried the b*stard you bore. What’s wrong? Were you planning on keeping quiet? Whose child is it?”
His voice was cold as the first melted snow. When Doris heard him, she shuddered involuntarily, but Doris was not just anyone. She gathered herself and took a deep breath, then a sharp light flashed in her blue eyes as she looked at Gu Qiwu coldly.
“Shouldn’t you be explaining about you and Mu Zi to me? What’s up with Mu Lingtian and Mu Lings.h.i.+?” Her tone was questioning as well.
“Doris, I told you that there’s a limit to my patience!”
