Time mercilessly marched on, and the two of them still hadn’t found Gu Lili.
Su Changzhi calculated the time, and when almost two hours had passed, he sat immobile at the entrance to the Thirteen Layers of Hell.
When Long Yubei arrived, he saw Su Changzhi sitting there motionless, no one knowing what he was thinking.
"Do you even have the face to look for her?" Su Changzhi looked up at him, "If she dies here, you’ll be happy, won’t you?"
"If it wasn’t for your terrible idea to treat marriage like a child’s play..."
"Who did she marry me for?" Su Changzhi sneered, "Leaving your Yue’er alone in the Netherworld King Hall, how lonely she must be. Go back and keep her company. I’ll find my wife myself; I don’t need your pointless worries."
Xiao Hei hurried over, "Your Highness, the Princess has completed her punishment and has been carried to the Netherworld King Hall."
Upon hearing this, the two immediately vanished from where they were.
When they arrived at the Netherworld King Hall, they saw a body, unrecognizable, lying on the ground twitching slightly as if gasping for its last breath. Not a single part was left intact from head to toe. Flesh and blood were mixed together, a terrifying sight.
Long Yubei had once thought that since he had made his decision, he would have no regrets. But upon seeing this scene, his heart was torn apart, the pain filled him with immense regret. It was he who had pushed Gu Lili into hell.
"Lili!" Su Changzhi knelt on one knee, holding her tightly in his arms. Seeing her in such a state, his eyes blood-red, "I’m sorry..."
A hot tear rolled down the corner of Gu Lili’s eye, her voice barely audible, "Husband, it hurts so much, I want to go home..."
"Okay, we’ll go home."
"Sister Lili is hospitalized? What happened to her? When was she admitted? Which hospital?"
Long Tianjiao bombarded Antonio with questions over the phone, leaving him unsure which to answer first.
"She’s suffered severe mental distress, like she’s lost her soul, and has been hospitalized in People’s Hospital."
"I’ll wait for you at the entrance of the hospital, I’ll be there soon."
"You stay in the hospital."
"No, I want to go." The rıghtful source is novel fire.net
Long Tianjiao hung up the phone and asked Liang He to bring her clothes. She got dressed and Liang He carried her out of the sickroom.
When the two of them arrived, Antonio was standing at the entrance of the hospital department.
"What has she been through?"
"I don’t know. Su Changzhi won’t say, and I can’t force him; after all, look at his status, I’m not tired of living."
Antonio threw the cigarette butt into the trash and walked inside with them.
On the VIP floor, the hallway was silent, maintaining tranquility.
The three people entered the sickroom where Gu Xichen and Jingsheng were standing. Seeing them come in, they exchanged glances without a word.
Long Tianjiao looked at the bed and saw Gu Lili with sweat all over her head; her hair soaked through with sweat.
Su Changzhi was wiping her sweat, and she gripped Su Changzhi’s arm tightly as if in great pain, her throat producing sounds of discomfort.
It was as if the entire world had abandoned her, desperately grasping for the straw of life, which seemed to be only Su Changzhi.
"It hurts... Changzhi... it hurts..."
"It doesn’t hurt anymore; it’s all over." Su Changzhi had been comforting her emotions since he brought her back to the mortal world. She wouldn’t sleep, as if stuck in a loop, unable to extricate herself from it.
With such coaxing, the doctor administered a sedative with ingredients for sedation and sleep without harming the fetus. With one injection, Gu Lili soon fell asleep.
