“When the president wakes up, I won’t have any objections to whatever punishment you wish to give me. But please don’t be calculative with me now. I still have to protect you and the president!”
Qiao Xi reached out to support him and said in a light voice, “This has nothing to do with you.”
Someone wanted to harm her and Gu Zheng. Even if they didn’t succeed this time, they would still attack another time. Song Shijing couldn’t be blamed for this. The enemy was too vicious.
Song Shijing stood up and walked out of the ward quietly.
Qiao Xi bent down and hugged Gu Lele in her arms, gently caressing his body. He called out to Gu Zheng, then left Qiao Xi’s embrace and directly jumped onto Gu Zheng’s bed.
He was very smart and did not step on Gu Zheng’s body. He just walked along the side of the bed to Gu Zheng’s cheek and used his small head to touch Gu Zheng’s face. Seeing that Gu Zheng was unconscious, he carefully licked his cheek.
Seeing that his father had no reaction, Gu Lele tilted her head and stared at the person on the bed in confusion.
When Qiao Xi saw this scene, tears instantly blurred her vision.
“Gu Zheng, wake up! You promised to protect me. You can’t go back on your word. If you don’t wake up, someone will bully me soon.
“Your son is here to see you. Gu Lele has gained weight again. If you don’t protect us, the Gu family will skin us alive!”
Qiao Xi muttered to herself until her mouth was dry, but the man on the bed still had no reaction. She couldn’t control her tears and even wanted to cry.
‘Gu Zheng, we’re now connected by blood. If you die, I’ll die with you. I’m still so young. I still have many things to do. Can you bear to let me die?
‘Didn’t Third Brother say that you would wake up soon? Why hasn’t there been any reaction after so long? I’ve already risked my life to save you. If you really die, I’ll be in a terrible state!
‘Gu Zheng! You bastard! Don’t scare me! I don’t want to die yet! Boo-hoo! Damn it, I’m so beautiful and have such a good figure. I’m a beauty that’s hard to come by in a hundred years. Am I going to die like this?’
At this moment, Gu Zheng gradually regained consciousness. His body was in intense pain as if he had been crushed. His face was wet, and there was a furry thing rubbing against his face.
After that, he regained his sense of hearing. There was a noisy person crying and shouting in his ears. It was very noisy, but he didn’t feel annoyed because he knew that this person was his beloved Mrs. Gu.
Gu Zheng’s head felt like it was about to explode. He slowly opened his eyes and first saw the enlarged version of Gu Lele before him. Then, he saw the crying Mrs. Gu.
‘Gu Zheng, if we die together, will we dominate the trending topics? The netizens will say that the extraordinarily handsome President Gu died in a car accident, while Mrs. Gu died from heartbreak!
‘Even if you’re not thinking of yourself, you have to think of me! I don’t want to die yet! I haven’t given birth yet! I haven’t eaten all the delicacies in the world!’
Gu Zheng seemed to have understood something because he heard Qiao Xi’s inner voice. He said weakly, “Mrs. Gu.”
Qiao Xi’s eyes suddenly widened as she stared at the man on the bed in disbelief. Then, she probed, “Gu… Gu Zheng?”
“I’m here.”
After these two words were spoken, Gu Zheng only heard an earth-shattering wail resounding in his ears. However, this was actually Qiao Xi’s inner voice. In reality, she was suppressing her sobs and only silently shedding tears.
With great effort, Gu Zheng raised his hand and caressed her cheeks, wiping away her tears. Suppressing the burning sensation in his throat, he said hoarsely, “Don’t cry.”
He only said a few words before he felt a sharp pain in his body. It was so painful that his forehead was covered in sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll be sad if you cry.”
Qiao Xi’s nose felt sour.
Just then, Song Shijing knocked on the door and walked in. He was surprised to see Gu Zheng awake. “President, you’re awake.”
“You should have gone to Gu Corporation three days ago, but you never showed up. I found an excuse to brush off the board of directors, and they believe me. Now, should we release the news of your injury?”
Qiao Xi knew that this matter had been suppressed. Otherwise, if Gu Yao knew that his brother had been injured in a car accident, he would have come over long ago. How could he not have made any movements?
