Su Hua went out.
She got in the car and sat down, then pulled the seat belt and fastened it.
After not seeing him for a few days, Gu Beixian seemed to have lost a little weight. His already deep contours became even more angular, and his eyebrows and eyes were so handsome that one couldn't take one's eyes off him.
Su Hua found that she still loved him very much and couldn't forget him at all.
"Here, a gift for starting your new job." Gu Beixian handed over an exquisite dark blue velvet jewelry box.
Su Hua took it and opened it.
It was a "Weng Zhong" carved from white mutton fat jade.
Weng Zhong is a famous jade carving for warding off evil spirits since ancient times.
The jade carving stands in a long robe. The facial features and clothing are only depicted with simple lines. The knife technique is concise, rough and powerful.
The jade quality is warm, elegant, and crystal clear. It is the best among jades.
Holding the jewelry box, Su Hua tilted her head to look at him, with a faint smile. "Why give me such an expensive gift?"
Gu Beixian smiled faintly an...The old lady hunched over and shuffled into the bedroom step by step.
Su Hua carefully supported her, fearing that if she used too much strength, she might hurt her again.
After lying down on the bed, the old lady took her hand and said softly, "I know that you have moved back to your mother's house. Don't worry. As long as I'm here, this divorce can't happen. Beixian is filial and listens to me."
"But..."
"There's no 'but'. That Chu Suosuo can only share joys but not hardships. Such a heartless person doesn't deserve to enter our Gu family."
Su Hua paused and said, "Grandma, should we call a doctor to come and take a look?"
"No need. At my age, I'm full of illnesses. Even if the doctor comes, it's useless. Go and eat quickly and close the door for me.""Okay."
Su Hua went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth, and then took a quick shower.
She came back and it was Gu Beixian's turn to take a bath.
Lying on the bed, she couldn't sleep. Her thoughts were in turmoil. They were about to get divorced, yet they were still sleeping on the same bed. What was going on?
Suddenly, Gu Beixian's phone on the bedside table rang.
Su Hua didn't like to touch his privacy and let it ring.
After ringing twice, it stopped.
Not long after, her phone rang too.
Su Hua glanced at the caller ID. It was a strange number.
After answering, a delicate female voice came from inside. "Sister Su Hua, is Brother Beixian with you?"
"Excuse me, who are you?"
The woman paused for a second and said, "I'm one of his sisters."
Su Hua thought it was one of Gu Beixian's cousins, so she said, "He's taking a bath. When he comes out, I'll ask him to call you back."
"Okay, thank you."
After coming out from the bath...Gu Beixian had a cold face and didn't say a word. He opened the closet, took out clothes from inside and started putting them on.
After putting on his clothes, he took a long stride and walked out.
Grandpa Gu heard the commotion and came out and asked, "In the middle of the night, where are you going?"
Gu Beixian said in a deep voice, "I have something to do outside."
"What's the matter?"
"Suosuo is in the hospital. I'm going to see her."
Grandpa raised his voice and said to Su Hua in the guest bedroom, "Little Su, go with him!"
Grandpa was resolute and his word was final.
Su Hua didn't dare to disobey him and replied, "Okay, Grandpa."
She put on her clothes and left with Gu Beixian.
As the car passed an intersection.
Su Hua said, "Just drop me off at any hotel."
Gu Beixian held the steering wheel and stared straight ahead. "Come with me. You explain to Suosuo."
Su Hua felt a tightness in her chest.
Although she had a quiet temperament and didn't compete with the world, she also had her own bottom line.
It wasn't her fault at all. What was there to explain?
Noticing her unhappiness, Gu Beixian freed one hand and stroked her hair. In a gentle voice, he said, "Suosuo has severe depression. Consider it as me begging you."
An hour later.
The two came to Chu Suosuo's ward.
She had just had her stomach pumped. Lying on the hospital bed, her face was extremely pale. Her hair was in a mess. Under the quilt, her figure was thin and small.
When Su Hua saw her appearance clearly, she was greatly surprised!
