After borrowing a set of clothes from the hospital nurse and changing, Gu Yao took the ring off her hand. At this moment, the ring had become a hot potato, and more than that, it was evidence that she had harmed an innocent person.
Recalling those two years of being troubled by love, the pain of unrequited love, Gu Yao hated her own selfishness and willfulness even more.
The ending between her and Shangguan Yu came at the cost of sacrificing an innocent person’s love.
Unknowingly, she had also become the type of person she used to despise the most.
"I’m sorry, I’m really sorry..."
Gu Yao clenched the ring in her hand, not knowing how to explain to Ais, nor how to face him or return the ring to her.
Having personally gone through all this, Gu Yao could fully understand Ais’s current pain, but aside from apologizing, she really didn’t know what to do to make up for the hurt she caused Ais.
The doctor’s estimated time had already passed half an hour ago, but there was no sign of Gu Sheng waking up.
Gu Li lost patience and went to call the doctor over to check the situation.
After examining, the doctor asked them to be patient and wait, saying that he would wake up, but half an hour passed again, and Gu Sheng still did not wake up.
The doctor was also anxious and a bit puzzled.
"He should have woken up by now."
Several doctors together tried various methods, but none worked.
Gu Sheng seemed to be sleeping, not even a flicker in his eyelashes.
The doctors surrounded Gu Sheng, unable to do anything for a moment. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelꜰire.net
Currently, Gu Sheng’s body had no issues, so they had no way to start.
The only option was to wait.
Gu Sheng’s situation left Gu Yao, who should have been happy finally finding love, deeply engulfed in self-blame.
Shangguan Yu’s wedding-snatching incident quickly spread in the elite circles of the Capital City, becoming a hot topic of conversation, and Shangguan Yu himself was sternly criticized from above.
As for Ais, the groom, he became quite famous in the Capital City, but this fame was not favorable.
If this spread to those adversaries in the Holy City, he would most likely become a laughingstock.
The deputy officer couldn’t stop him at the time, so he went to inform Shangguan Qingmu, but it was already too late.
After leaving the hospital, Shangguan Yu neither returned to the barracks nor dared to go home, fearing his parents’ worry. Besides, he was in no mood to discuss these matters with them now, and he was worried about Gu Yao. He initially thought of finding a place to stay near the hospital, but only the bar seemed suitable.
The phone on the table rang non-stop, and Shangguan Yu glanced over them but didn’t answer until Jun Moyan called, and he picked up.
Soon, Jun Moyan’s figure appeared in the bar.
Seeing Shangguan Yu at the bar counter, Jun Moyan sighed softly, walked forward, and sat down beside him.
Previously, due to getting drunk and almost losing control, Jun Moyan, who still couldn’t enter his bedroom and could only sleep in the study, didn’t expect that he had to drink again so soon.
This drink, indeed, couldn’t be avoided.
"I don’t regret it, it’s just that..." Shangguan Yu didn’t finish but raised his head and gulped down the drink.
"Do you also think I was wrong?" Shangguan Yu looked at Jun Moyan with helpless and bewildered eyes.
"What’s done is done, right or wrong no longer has any meaning."
"...What should I do?" Shangguan Yu was truly lost.
Recalling the scene when he made up his mind and left with Gu Yao regardless of everything, Shangguan Yu’s mood still couldn’t be calmed.
