Chapter 888: 888 Mr. Gu must be heartbroken (2)
Eleven was swiftly wheeled away for emergency treatment.
Gu Liancheng didn’t leave; he stood there, his eyes filled with ferocity.
Yao Ruoshui trembled, her feet somehow tripped over themselves, and she was frightened enough by his temperament to fall to the ground.
Perhaps it was out of guilt, fearing that he had seen something just now, she felt partly responsible for Fang Eleven’s loss of the child, which left her somewhat afraid.
Jin Xiangnan, fearful that he would hurt their mother, had been standing in front all along, blocking him.
However, in the end, Gu Liancheng still did nothing, and his clenched fists slowly relaxed.
Because the name of the person that Eleven had been calling out to just before she fell into a coma, he gave up.
But before he left, he dropped a sentence, "If it wasn’t for Jin Xiangbei’s sake, you wouldn’t be able to leave this hospital today! Listen well, whether Jin Xiangbei lives or dies, now a life for a life, we’re even!"
Even after Gu Liancheng had left, they still felt the air around them tinged with an unusual flavor.
Mother Jin, once her spirit relaxed, nearly fell over but was supported by Jin Xiangnan.
He helped her sit down, and scolded, "Mom! What are you doing! Eleven’s child is most likely gone!"
"I—" Mother Jin was also in a daze, unaware of what she had impulsively done.
"Mom, why didn’t you think it through! If there had been any chance just now, and you truly had killed Eleven, what would Little North do when he wakes up?! If he learned that Eleven, whom he fought with his life to protect, died at your hands, wouldn’t he feel like it would have been better if he had never come back to life!"
"I—"
"Big brother, mom didn’t mean to—"
"Enough!"
Now, Little North had been rescued, but Eleven’s child was gone!
He felt guilty.
...
Eleven didn’t know how long she had slept.
She had a dream.
She dreamed that eight months had passed, and the baby was born, very healthy, a little princess, and the whole family was very happy, especially Gu Liancheng.
But dreams are often contrary to reality, and once she realized this, it felt too wonderful, like a dream, and then she woke up.
"Awake?"
A familiar voice came from beside her ear.
Hearing his voice first thing in the morning was truly wonderful.
Eleven turned her head slightly and smiled at him, "Yeah."
She looked at the sky and asked, "What time is it? I feel like I’ve slept a long time..."
She vaguely felt it, as if her body was very tired and her brain fatigued, which made her not want to wake up.
"You did sleep a long time," he said, stroking her hair, "two days and two nights."
He had been worried sick, calling the doctor several times to check on her, but the doctor insisted there was nothing wrong with her health, just physical and mental exhaustion, which had led to her comatose state, but it wasn’t serious.
So he guessed she might not want to wake up to face some realities, and let her be.
He hadn’t gone anywhere, always staying by her side, never leaving.
"That long?"
"Wife, the baby..."
"I know..." Eleven interrupted him, her hand resting on her abdomen, "I can feel it... it’s gone from my body... How is Xiangbei doing? How is Xiangbei?"
She felt it should be good news, as she could tell from his expression.
"Yeah, he’s still alive. Just like you, unconscious. But he’s already past the critical period; the doctor said there’s nothing serious, and he’ll naturally wake up when it’s time."
"And Mother Jin?"
"Don’t worry, I wouldn’t do anything to upset you."
"Thank you..." Eleven smiled sincerely.
In the end, the heavens were still kind to her, giving her such a perfect husband.
