Chu Yu was so scared that his whole body trembled.
“Huo… President Huo…”
He stuttered and couldn’t utter a complete sentence.
President Huo exuded an overwhelming rage, causing him to tremble in fear involuntarily.
“Huo… not… Mrs. Huo… she…”
He trembled for a long time before finally steadying himself and taking a deep breath.
“President Huo, Mrs. Huo is extremely weak and needs you to accompany her.” He managed to utter a complete sentence, “Please spare me, President Huo. I only wanted to make you pause for a moment of clarity, not to kill this murderer. I need to interrogate. I…”
Chu Yu’s voice suddenly burst out, but before he could finish, Huo Sicheng’s fist struck his chest, causing intense pain that left him unable to breathe and forcing him to collapse on the ground.
Huo Sicheng’s eyes were bloodshot, and he reprimanded in a furious tone, word by word, “Anyone in this world can die, anyone except Gu Qingcheng!”
“Yes, President Huo.”
Huo Sicheng looked down at the man on the ground, whose face he had distorted with his punch. His crimson phoenix eyes were filled with boundless anger and hatred.
He gritted his teeth, restraining his murderous intent, and quickly returned to the helicopter.
Huo Sicheng boarded the helicopter and swiftly left the mountains, heading towards the hospital.
The accompanying doctors were working hard to save Gu Qingcheng.
Huo Sicheng’s eyes were filled with self-blame and anguish as he held Gu Qingcheng’s hand. He realized that all ten of her fingers were swollen, blood-red and purplish, making her look as if she were crippled, which horrified him to his core.
“I will definitely make sure nothing happens to you, absolutely!” Every word he spoke was filled with a plea.
In the hospital, Gu Qingcheng woke up in the deep of the night.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe saw the white ceiling in her line of sight, and when she turned her head, she immediately saw Huo Sicheng, whose brow was furrowed with painful concern, staring at her.
She… wasn’t dead?
Why was Huo Sicheng in front of her?
When Huo Sicheng saw Gu Qingcheng wake up, he visibly sighed in relief.
“Awake,” his hoarse voice trembled with a touch of unstable emotion, “Are you hungry?”
Gu Qingcheng’s breath hitched. She had indeed felt like she was on the brink of death, and clearly, at the critical moment, Huo Sicheng had saved her.
Looking at Huo Sicheng like this, with the light falling on him, he radiated a dazzling brilliance like a god.
Her nose tingled, her eyes grew warm.
She couldn’t help but call his name, “Huo Sicheng…”
When Huo Sicheng saw the mist of tears forming in Gu Qingcheng’s eyes, he felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if a blunt knife was twisting inside him, causing him indescribable agony.
“I’m here, I’m here,” his voice hoarse, “I’ve been here all along.”
He wanted to hold her hand, but he dared not even touch it, afraid of causing her pain.
Because the doctor had told him that while Gu Qingcheng seemed to have no visible wounds, her whole body was covered in tiny needle marks, indicating the extent of the torture she had endured.
At that time, she must have been in so much pain.
He knew her character too well. Even if she suffered a thousand kinds of pain, she would never yield to anyone.
She was truly a terrifyingly strong and formidable existence.
For the first time, Gu Qingcheng realized she still had tears, that she could still cry.
But she blinked repeatedly to prevent her tears from falling, not allowing any trace of weakness to show.
“How did you find me?” Her voice was hoarse as she asked him.
Huo Sicheng didn’t conceal anything and told Gu Qingcheng about everything that had transpired, including how he had waited for her in the office for several days.
As Gu Qingcheng listened to Huo Sicheng’s words, her heart ached deeply.
She didn’t want to trouble Huo Sicheng, nor did she want him to worry about her.
But she hadn’t anticipated that Chu He would discover her proximity to Yuan Qiaolan, nearly killing her.
“Huo Sicheng, when I was about to die, I saw you.”
Huo Sicheng was afraid to hear Gu Qingcheng say the word “die.”
He quickly shook his head as he heard her words, “Don’t say that, you promised me.”
Gu Qingcheng smiled weakly. She raised her hand to touch Huo Sicheng’s face but realized her hands were wrapped in bandages, like a zongzi.
“Don’t move.” Huo Sicheng carefully put down Gu Qingcheng’s hand. “And don’t talk either. I’ll have someone bring food in.”
Indeed, Gu Qingcheng was hungry, and she quietly let Huo Sicheng feed her. Huo Sicheng fed Gu Qingcheng some nutritional porridge, accompanying her tenderly.
“Why don’t I feel any pain?” Gu Qingcheng curiously remarked. “It’s like my body has been smeared with something. The scent of mint is really strong.”
Huo Sicheng’s voice was gentle. “Your whole body is covered in a mixture of painkillers and mint.”
Gu Qingcheng understood, “No wonder I don’t feel any pain. The nurses must have worked hard to apply so much ointment.”
“The one who worked hard wasn’t the nurses, but me.” Huo Sicheng gently told Gu Qingcheng, adding, “But I don’t feel like it’s hard; it’s never difficult for me when it comes to you.”
Gu Qingcheng widened her eyes and blushed all of a sudden. Her entire body grew warm, and embarrassment filled her heart.
She couldn’t believe that Huo Sicheng had applied ointment all over her body.
However, Huo Sicheng wouldn’t lie to her at a moment like this. He truly had applied the ointment himself.
She pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and tried to suppress the thought that Huo Sicheng had seen her naked body before.
So, she didn’t need to feel embarrassed or awkward.
It took her a long time to calm her emotions, and she softlv said, “Thank vou.” Huo Sicheng was taken aback.
In his mind, he thought Gu Qingcheng would scold him for not asking a nurse to apply the ointment.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut she didn’t scold him. Instead, she thanked him, bringing a sense of joy to his heart.
“I told you not to say thank you.” He sighed. “You just can’t remember what I say.”
“I remember, I remember this time.” Gu Qingcheng earnestly promised, then changed the subject, saying, “Huo Sicheng, I haven’t finished what I was saying earlier.”
“What were you saying?”
“I…” Gu Qingcheng remembered that Huo Sicheng had forbidden her to say the word “die.” So, she chose a different phrase, “When I
was almost thrown off the cliff, I saw you appear in front of me. You smiled at me, reached out your hand to me, and I ran after you. You kept smiling at me. I felt warm and safe, without a hint of fear of falling off the cliff.”
She paused for a moment after saying this, and then with affection in her eyes, she continued, “Huo Sicheng, you’ve always been by my side. Having you in my life is truly my good fortune.”
Even when she was dying, he was by her side.
In her past life and this life, he was always there.
It was clear that her subconscious was filled with Huo Sicheng’s presence, and not the version of him that had hurt her, but the gentle one who had always been kind to her.
Huo Sicheng’s heart raced, “Is that a confession?”
Gu Qingcheng didn’t hesitate at all. With deep sincerity, she said to Huo
Sicheng, “Yes, it is. I’m confessing my feelings for you.”
Huo Sicheng was taken aback by Gu Qingcheng’s straightforward expression of her emotions. This was not her usual way of hiding her feelings, and it brought a sense of joy and happiness to his suppressed heart.
“Qingcheng… ”
Gu Qingcheng’s soft response followed, “I’m here.”
Unable to resist his emotions, Huo Sicheng leaned down and pressed a tender, gentle kiss onto Gu Qingcheng’s lips.
“I’m the luckiest because of you,” he whispered.
Feeling the warmth of Huo Sicheng’s lips, and hearing his magnetic and sincere voice, Gu Qingcheng blushed and smiled shyly.
She liked it when Huo Sicheng said that.
Though they didn’t exchange any words, the silent understanding between them spoke volumes. The atmosphere was warm and intimate.
After a long while, Gu Qingcheng gazed at Huo Sicheng.. Her voice was soft but earnest as she asked him, “Huo Sicheng, what kind of girl do you like?”
