Chapter 41

Zihan's heart instantly turned cold.

What made her feel even colder was that Cheng Li didn't help her up, but instead used his hand to shield Liuli from the rain.

Seeing Liuli rush into the rain, Cheng Li's first reaction was to shield her from the rain.

She couldn't get rained on, and this rain was quite heavy.

It wasn't that he didn't help Zihan, but Zihan had already been helped up by Liuli.

The red on Zihan's face had faded, leaving only a cold gray.

"Go in quickly!"

Cheng Li's face was full of rainwater, and although his hand couldn't shield much rain, he still stubbornly shielded her head.

Liuli looked at his face covered in rainwater, the more she wanted to see, the less she could see clearly.

In the dimness, one figure fell, and another figure rushed into the rain.

Seeing Liuli fall, Zeyan rushed over without hesitation.

"Take her to the hospital quickly."

It was Cheng Li's anxious voice; Zeyan quickly carried Liuli into the car, and Cheng Li sat in the back seat to take care of her.

Zihan was dazed in the rain alone.

"Come up quickly!"

Bai Xu pulled her back into the shop.

"What's wrong with Liuli?" Zihan asked.

"How would I know?"

Bai Xu was just thinking about whether he should tell Gu Die that Liuli had fainted, but the one who took her to the hospital was Zeyan.

"Liuli had an accident, she's on her way to the hospital now, I don't know which hospital."

He hadn't decided whether to call Gu Die yet when he heard Zihan call him.

"Are you crazy? Shen Zeyan took Liuli to the hospital, what if they run into each other again!"

As soon as Zihan hung up, Bai Xu said to her, but the call had already been made.

"That person was Shen Zeyan?"

"You didn't recognize him?"

She really didn't recognize him, she was a bit drunk, her head was fuzzy, and it was a miracle she had lasted until now.

"I was drunk."

"You still know you were drunk, you look quite sober!"

The food and drink she had vomited out, but her head was still fuzzy.

"My head hurts."

"Go in first, I'll have someone make you some hangover soup, it won't hurt in a while."

"Okay."

As soon as she entered the private room, Zihan lay on the sofa and fell asleep.

Bai Xu still sent someone to make hangover soup for her.

As soon as it rained, Gu Die panicked; Grandma said Liuli would get sick when it rained, and she was afraid of thunder.

During the thunder, he didn't know where his heart had gone.

He hurriedly rushed back to the Gu Family, but Aunt Lin said she hadn't returned.

He sent people to look for her, and even wanted to call Cheng Li to ask if Liuli was with him.

Fortunately, he waited for Zihan's call, and soon he sent people to find the hospital where Liuli was.

"Doctor, how is she?"

Cheng Li asked.

"She just has a simple fever, she'll be fine once the fever goes down; she has a weak constitution and got rained on, but there's nothing else, you don't need to worry too much."

The doctor replied, and Cheng Li breathed a sigh of relief.

Zeyan was too.

Cheng Li regretted being angry at Liuli just now; he had never been angry at Liuli, but these two times were both because of Zihan.

Not long after the doctor left, Gu Die arrived.

"Get out."

Gu Die wanted him to leave as soon as he saw Zeyan.

"This isn't the Gu Family's hospital, you can't kick people out no matter how much power you have, right?"

Zeyan said coldly.

"She is my wife, it's only right for me to take care of her when she's sick, but what are you?"

"Then where were you when she fainted?"

As soon as Zeyan asked, Gu Die had nothing to say.

He actually still had to thank Zeyan and Cheng Li for taking Liuli to the hospital, but he couldn't open his mouth, especially to Zeyan.

"Shouldn't you be concerned about Liuli now?"

Cheng Li asked back.

When Zeyan drove her to the hospital, he didn't know how many red lights he had run at his own risk.

He could see that he was concerned about Liuli.

At least more concerned than Gu Die.

Gu Die didn't check Liuli's condition as soon as he came in, but noticed Zeyan first, which made Cheng Li very unhappy.

As soon as Gu Die saw Zeyan and Liuli together, he inexplicably felt that Zeyan was approaching Liuli with ill intentions.

He was afraid that Zeyan would do something to Liuli to take revenge on him.

"I'll leave Liuli to you, I have things to do, I'm leaving."

Zeyan stood up and said to Cheng Li.

Zeyan felt relieved after hearing the doctor say she just had a simple fever.

If he stayed any longer, he might end up fighting with Gu Die again.

"When she's better, give me a call, this is my business card, my contact information is on it."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Cheng Li liked Zeyan's attitude, like a big brother.

And indeed, Zeyan was three years older than Liuli and Cheng Li.

Gu Die sat by the bed and held her hand.

Cheng Li didn't want to watch, so he just took out his phone and recorded Zeyan's contact information and name.

If he didn't think Gu Die was unreliable, he wouldn't want to stay with him.

"Thank you."

Gu Die said after a long time.

"Don't thank me, thank Shen Zeyan! If you were half as concerned about Liuli as he is, I wouldn't have to stay here."

Gu Die only felt there was more to his words; was he saying he wasn't concerned about her?

He had sent so many people just to find her, and as soon as it rained, he thought of her reflexively.

Did these count as being concerned about her?

"Dad, Mom, Brother Zeyan..."

Liuli was muttering something.

"Liuli, I'm here."

Gu Die said, seeing her tightly furrowed brows and the tiny beads of sweat on her forehead, wanting to give her some sense of security.

"Dad, Mom..."

He heard her calling Dad and Mom, and Cheng Li also ran over to listen.

"Brother Zeyan..."

Cheng Li and Gu Die were stunned when they heard her calling Zeyan.

Cheng Li thought that she was calling Zeyan, not Gu Die; could it be that she had Zeyan in her heart, but not Gu Die?

He was even a bit happy for Zeyan, but he didn't know how Liuli and Zeyan knew each other!

And Gu Die's heart was stabbed hard by her calling.

He couldn't help but wonder, what kind of relationship did she have with Shen Zeyan?

When she was abandoned in the parking lot, in the heavy rain, with thunder, hungry and unable to eat, thirsty and without water, she thought about why Dad, Mom, and Brother Zeyan hadn't found her yet.

She knew they would definitely look for her, but why hadn't they come yet?

Listening to the thunder, accompanied by the dark night, she gradually became a bit afraid alone.

No one passed by, everything around her felt eerie and desolate.

She imagined all the beautiful scenes, wanting to walk out of this dark night, imagining holding hands with Zeyan in the rain, listening to the thunder.

But no matter how she imagined, she couldn't imagine beautiful things anymore.

Everything merged into the dark night, her fear and helplessness turned into the sound of rain and thunder.

She wanted to see Dad, Mom, and Zeyan so much, but couldn't see them.

"Dad, Mom, Brother Zeyan..."

Liuli was still calling.

Gu Die's heart sank even more.

She opened her eyes and felt so uncomfortable inside, a feeling of emptiness surged again.

It was as if something had slipped away from her heart.

She didn't want to let it go, but couldn't hold on to it.

"How do you feel?"

Cheng Li asked softly when he saw she was awake.

She just frowned and didn't speak.

Her heart still felt uncomfortable, blocking her breath.

"If you don't want to talk, then don't."

Cheng Li's tone was like coaxing a child.

She nodded.

Liuli felt her hand being held and saw it was Gu Die, so she pulled her hand away.

"Where's Zihan?"

"She has Bai Xu watching her."

Cheng Li replied casually.

"Don't be angry, I saw she really liked you, so I helped her," Liuli explained, "And she drank so much, it was all because of you, what did you say to provoke her today?"

She drank so much because of him?

"Alright, Liuli, your body is weak, don't talk too much."

Gu Die was like an invisible person at this moment.

"Zihan is a good girl, you should cherish her."

"Got it."

Cheng Li had to agree; she was sick, and he didn't want her to worry about these things anymore.

Gu Die reached out and touched her forehead; the fever had gone down.

"Since you're her husband, you should take good care of her; she gets uncomfortable on rainy days, you have to be especially careful not to let her get rained on."

Cheng Li instructed.

"I know."

Gu Die replied coldly.

Liuli was wondering why she had to tell him these things? The person he loved most wasn't her.

"Cheng Li, I feel much better, I want to be discharged."

"Then I'll go ask the doctor."

"Mm."

"Want to go home?"

Gu Die asked after Cheng Li left.

"Do I have a home?"

Gu Die felt uncomfortable hearing her words; did she never consider the Gu Family her home?

That's right, it was his home, but he also wanted to make it her home.

"Liuli, I didn't control my emotions today, I'm sorry, but I..."

He didn't know why either, but when it came to Siyun, his emotions would change greatly.

"Liuli, the doctor said you can be discharged, just rest well at home!"

Cheng Li rushed in and said, interrupting Gu Die's words.

Cheng Li also felt the awkward atmosphere and instantly wanted to become transparent.

Gu Die's look was simply wanting to slaughter him, swallow him alive, quite scary.

"Okay."

Liuli stood up, and Cheng Li hurriedly went to help her.

"Don't need you to help, I'm fine!"

Liuli laughed, feeling her complexion was much better.

"Okay, you do it yourself!"

Liuli didn't want to return to the Gu Family, but she had nowhere else to go besides the Gu Family.

When they returned to the Gu Family, it was already dark.

Aunt Lin had long since prepared dinner and was waiting for them.

Before Gu Die returned, he had called her to instruct her to stew soup for Liuli.

She didn't talk to him much, because she didn't know what to say to him.

Her appetite wasn't very good either, but her body had just gotten a bit better, so she had to eat something.

Today she didn't eat fast at all; Gu Die had finished eating, but she hadn't.

It was probably because she wasn't in the mood to eat.

Since waking up in the hospital, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable, always feeling like she had had a very long dream.

She always felt she had forgotten something, forgotten important people, forgotten important things.

But no matter how she thought, she couldn't remember.

She hated this feeling, her heart felt empty.

And Gu Die just waited for her silently, accompanying her.
