After hanging up the phone, he walked into the ward with heavy steps.
Seeing the bloodless Xia He lying quietly on the bed, he felt emotional for a moment.
On the one hand, he wanted to smash the man who got Xia He pregnant, and on the other hand, he wanted to hold such a fragile and beautiful Xia He in his arms and take good care of her.
However, despite several surges of emotion, he looked at Xia He lying on the snow-white sheets and endured it. He just clenched his fists silently, with veins showing on the back of his hands.
…
By the time Xia He slowly woke up, Gu Chengyu had sorted out his emotions.
What caught his eye was a haggard handsome guy. Xia He's heart skipped a beat: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
She looked around again and asked doubtfully: "Where is this? Why am I here?"
"Are you awake? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Gu Chengyu didn't answer, he just looked at her gently and asked softly.
Xia He shook his head subconsciously.
Then her memory returned to the moment when she was splashed with cold water.
"Brother, someone poured water on me!" Xia He sat up and started to tremble all over.
Gu Chengyu looked at her face turning pale, and felt a pain in his heart. He quickly held Xia He in his arms, patted her back gently, and whispered: "I know, don't be afraid, it's okay now.
Brother is here."
With his soft words of comfort, Xia He slowly calmed down.
Seeing the color slowly returning to Xia He's face, Gu Chengyu let her go.
He briefly told Xia He what happened, and then told her that he had called the police.
Xia He felt a little cold after hearing the whole story. They were all friendly colleagues at the beginning, how could they get to this point?
"Brother did the right thing. This kind of thing should be handed over to the police."
She is not a holy mother, and there is really nothing to tolerate when encountering such a malicious person.
It’s just that I inevitably have complicated views on human nature.
"Yeah." Gu Chengyu nodded absently.
He seemed to ask casually: "Xiaohe, is there something you didn't tell me?"
"Huh?" Xia He didn't react for a moment when his brother asked.
Gu Chengyu stopped talking and just took out a blood test report and handed it to her.
Xia He took it, and when she saw the words "early pregnancy" clearly on it, her pupils instantly dilated.
She swallowed, her whole body falling into a state of confusion.
After a while, Xia He's voice slowly sounded: "Brother...I'm sorry..."
"Do you think I'm your brother? Why don't you tell me anything about such a big thing?"
"Who is that man? What happened?"
"I...I didn't mean it..." Xia He's heartbeat accelerated,
She originally wanted to get divorced and then tell her brother everything. Who knew she would get pregnant?
How can I get pregnant?
Obviously only once...
Now that her brother knows that she is pregnant, everything has to be said.
But how to get her to speak?
She said that she and her husband are divorcing, and her husband has a new love, who is waiting to get the certificate and enter the house?
To say that Mu Beisen has no feelings for her, or even hates her?
Then wouldn’t the cooperation project between my brother and Mushi be over?
She was thinking wildly and didn't answer for a while.
Gu Chengyu felt annoyed and confused, and asked: "You still don't want to say it? Who is the father of the child?"
"I..." Xia He opened his mouth, paused, and finally replied: "Mu Beisen."
"Mu Beisen?" Gu Chengyu stood up in shock when he heard the name.
"Yes."
Xia He lowered his head, with unspeakable sorrow and helplessness in his heart.
"Mu Beisen and I are husband and wife. We have been married for three years. The child is his..."
As Xia He spoke word by word, he felt his heart hurt more and more.
She reached out to cover her chest and begged Gu Chengyu: "Brother, we'll talk about the specifics later. I just beg you not to tell him about this."
Gu Chengyu had rich experience, and Xia He only had a few words of conversation, and he understood most of the truth.
Xia He has been lying to her about her marriage for so many days. It must be very complicated, and she is not happy.
He suppressed the pain in his heart and nodded: "Okay, I promise you, please speak slowly."
Xia He said slowly: "I...we had no feelings in the first place. This marriage was entrusted to him by his father before his death." Xia He slowly told the ins and outs of this ridiculous marriage.
"...So, at that critical moment, my father had no other choice, so he entrusted me to Mu Beisen and asked him to promise to take care of me for the rest of my life. But no one thought that this marriage would eventually turn into what it is today."
Xia He lowered his head, and his big tears fell on the quilt, making it wet.
"Brother, Mu Beisen and I had no relationship at first. We are about to divorce. He is ready to marry another woman. He will definitely not want this child. But I want to keep him. He is my only baby.
That’s why…I won’t let you tell him…”
Seeing the aggrieved Xia He, Gu Chengyu could no longer bear the guilt in his heart and stepped forward to gently hold her in his arms.
"Xiaohe, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I hadn't left that year, these things wouldn't have happened later..."
Apart from Xia He's father, he is the person who knows her best in the world.
Seeing Xia He so sad, how could he believe that the marriage between these two people was emotionless? At least Xia He had deep feelings for Mu Beisen.
It's all his fault that things have reached this point.
If Xiaohe hadn't left that year, Xiaohe wouldn't have been left without anyone to take care of him, and Xia's father wouldn't have been desperate to arrange their marriage.
Mu Beisen... Gu Chengyu recited this name silently in his heart, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
This man got the best treasure in the world, but he didn't cherish it properly and dared to treat Xiaohe like this... He would definitely not let Mu go so easily!
"Xiaohe, I promise you. Only the two of us know about this matter. I won't tell anyone else. Your baby is my baby. We will raise him together."
"good……"
Xia He choked with sobs, feeling sour in his heart.
"What are you doing?"
Just when Xia He was immersed in sadness, the door was suddenly pushed open.
A tall and handsome figure walked in.
Xia He's eyes couldn't help but light up.
She saw Mu Beisen.
Mu Beisen also had a happy expression on his face
But Mu Beisen's surprise lasted only a moment, and soon turned into anger.
Because he saw Xia He, whom he had longed for forever, being held in Gu Chengyu's arms.
Gu Chengyu looked at Mu Beisen calmly, with no trace of the unwelcome emotion in his eyes.
"Why is Mr. Gu here?"
Mu Beisen looked at him angrily.
"Mr. Mu is joking, Xiaohe is my sister and an employee of the company. Isn't it right for me to send her to the hospital?"
Gu Chengyu made no secret of the tit-for-tat tone in his tone.
