A single apology made Gu Qiangwei realize there was a reason for the situation. Any feeling of grievance in that moment quickly dissipated.
She let him hold her and asked, "What’s wrong with you, exactly?"
After calming the anxiety in his chest, Qin Sijue finally released her.
"You suddenly disappeared, and I’ve been looking for you for a long time."
Gu Qiangwei paused for a few seconds, looking at him, thinking of the reason she had suddenly left.
"Earlier when I went downstairs, I planned to find you, but I suddenly felt so nauseous. I wanted to vomit and was afraid of vomiting in front of all the guests, so I rushed to the restroom without having time to tell you."
In that moment, she felt like she might vomit, and there was some distance between them. Naturally, there was no way she could go to tell him before rushing to the restroom.
But it was just a trip to the restroom, and yet he was so anxious—it was quite unusual, wasn’t it?
Because when nature calls, if not in the banquet hall, then she must be in the restroom, otherwise she’d be in the lounge.
They were at a hotel, after all, where she had nowhere else to go. If she had gone out, she would have certainly called him to join her.
Hearing her explanation, Qin Sijue immediately felt distressed.
"Do you still feel sick?"
Gu Qiangwei nodded, perhaps because of the anxiety, Qin Sijue hadn’t noticed her slightly pale face.
"It’s just that I keep feeling like vomiting but can’t actually vomit... it feels so awful." And she was clearly aware that this sensation was becoming more frequent and intense, making her inexplicably tired, and even her head was dizzy and heavy.
Seeing the way she furrowed her brow, every bit of anxiousness in Qin Sijue instantly turned into concern, "Let’s go to the hospital."
He didn’t know how else to relieve her discomfort; the only solution was to go to the hospital to see what the doctor would suggest.
Having said this, he immediately took her hand and headed for the hospital.
Gu Qiangwei was somewhat worried, "Let’s go later, after the banquet is over."
"It doesn’t matter," Qin Sijue insisted.
Unable to resist, she could only let him take her hand, and they left the venue together through a side door.
In the elevator, not wanting Zhuang Yanyan and the others to worry, Qin Sijue made a call to inform them.
Whether it was the sudden sensation of weightlessness the elevator caused, making Gu Qiangwei, who was already feeling a bit dizzy, suddenly sway, she instinctively grabbed Qin Sijue’s arm!
Qin Sijue had just finished his call with Zhuang Yanyan, and the moment he hung up, he suddenly felt her hand gripping his arm fiercely.
He hadn’t even turned his head when Gu Qiangwei’s body suddenly slid down.
The color drained from Qin Sijue’s face the instant he saw her fall, and his heart tightened into a knot in a split second!
The elevator doors opened, and he picked her up and rushed toward the parking lot!
They arrived at the hospital about ten minutes later.
After a series of examinations, Gu Qiangwei woke up unharmed.
The doctor’s diagnosis was that this phenomenon is normal during pregnancy; it was mainly her severe discomfort and nausea that caused her to faint, but there was no major worry.
Gu Qiangwei, who had awakened, still felt very dizzy, and the sense of nausea was growing stronger. It seemed that any movement would bring the nauseous feeling back again.
"Isn’t there any solution?"
Staring at the doctor, Qin Sijue’s dark eyes were slightly knit.
The doctor turned his head, glanced at Gu Qiangwei who had woken up on the hospital bed, then turned back to Qin Sijue.
